Slavery In Liberia.


We find the following curious statement in
the Albany Alias. 1t throws some light on a
dark place:
A singular account of "Dahomey and the
Dahomans," has appeared, written by II. f.
Forbes, lieutenant in her Majesty's service.
On the last day of May, the king Of Dahomev
makes presents to his people. He stands on a
raised platform, and occupies himself for many
hours in throwing cloth, liquors, and cowries to
the assembled thousands of naked blacks be-
low, who scramble for them. The last of the
gifts consis of live prisoners, who are exhibit
ed in gay dresses, and tied hand ana foot, are
flung down TO the waiting savages below, who
instantly tear them TO pieces. The mission OF
Lieutenant Forbes to Gezo, the king Of Da
honey, was to induce him to discontinue the
slave trade, but this object was not attained
The king urged that 1t was impossible on many
grounds, such as national habit and expedency
example of his ancestors, &c, &c. Lieufenon
Forbes says that siapery actually prepaiis, under
another name IN Liberid The negroes are called
pa,cns, and are taken as payment for debts. AL
most every English merchant in Liberia has ,
femme du pays, and she manages his establish
nent She does so by selling goods to nativ,
merchants, who leave slaves or pawns in pay
ment Lieut.. Forbes says he knew a femme d,
pays, who had forty pawns, who performed al
the household duties, and who were in fact
slaves.

"Many puzzling indications appear here and

Mr.. Seward was asked few days before leaving

amount of nancy spent by our opponents in the
election. Nothing like it was ever seen before
in Rhode Island. Never before was bribery so
liberal, never venalty so shameful. Eighty dol
lars are no slight temptation to n man who
probably does not earn two hundred dollars in
a year; and eighty dollars was given for sim
Gle vote. Twenty dollars was common price
and forty and fifty dollars were paid for single

dollars. Considering the smallness of the State

Mr.. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEs: With the
deepest pleasure and highest pride we perceive
your organization, your address TO the young
men of the South, and your resolutions and
we cannot forbear sending you our ardent gratu-
ation
We have nothing adulatory to offer. We
would say simply what we think and feel Your
spoliations pcrpetrated--never to be endured
and of the greater outrage conspired your
sense Of the present degradation and peril of
the South; and the spiru you pledge for re-
trievement and for future safety--all come op-
portunely 20 cheer the heart and ilumine the
prospect Of every patriot
We rejoice that you have, in your Alma
Mater, put on the toga ririiis and that il il not
to become garment of dengeneracy and sub
mission. Emulated be your example Your
day opens. Take charge of the wrongs and in
dignities of the South, to redress them, and look
to her coming destipies.
You will take counsel Of your senior patriots,
who are in the arena but we ask you not to
permit TAzEwELL and CHEvEs to leave in
despair but bring up TO tbem in their last hall
lowed hours, the Southern people united Mis-
sissippi is with you.
In conclusion Of this brief sautation, allow MS
TO say, tsat if Virginia shall act upon the re-
peated resolutions off Legislature, and assume
and take and keep the lead Of the assaied States,
all will be weI--the South will unite--the
compact of the States viii be restored--and the
hopeful Union which it formed, sent onward to
future gcnerations but all this depends on the
future action of Virginia.

rE- PRo-pr CT Gus THE Albany Argus thus
chronicles the latest and most important proof
of Boston "loyalty;"
A GOOD SYMPTOM, AND IS THE RIGHT QUARTER.
1T will be seen by our telegraph report that the
Massachusetts legislature, by decisive vote,
refused the use Of the State House yard TO cer-
tain petitioners who wished TO hold therein a
meeting of those opposed to the Fugitive slave
law.
This is certainly an encouraging index Of the
growing feeling in the old Bay State In favor Of
sustaining the law Of the land, in opposition to
that portion Of her citizens (hitherto deemed
large) who would trample the law and the Con-
stitution under foot. We hail II as an addition
al good omen from that quarter.
The vote by which the yard was refused
stood lat to I13.
After this, who can doubt the asoundness" oi
