one its removal will not be unattended with diff
fculties, but many Of these difficulties are only
imaginary, and win vanish before Q determined
and wel-directed effort to enlighten and elevate
the colored race. But our inquiry now is q per-
sonal one: What are You doing in your families,
in your churches, in your respective neighbor-
hoods, to abridge the influence Of this giant evil
and stay its onward march Do you by your
silence acquiesce in the efforts now making to e1-
tend lido you apologize for it, extenuste its
enOrmities, and degrade the Christian character
and name, by searching for Scripture arguments
to pslliate and excuse it7 Or do you discounte-
nance it in every way, and throw the weight Of
your influence against it
Remember that the Saviour, when upon earth,
sought out the poor and the lowly as the especial
recipients Of His grace and favor-that he dis
countenanced 0ppression--that He deprecated
Wrong and Violence-that he commanded US 70
live as brethren-that He declared that wrong
and an injury done to the lowest and meanest OF
His brethren was regarded as wrong aud an In
Jury done unto Him. Shall we not, therefore,
initiate His example, and by kindness, goodwin,
and brotherly affection, seek to do good as we
may have opportunity Let US 40 this, and the
favor Of God, the approval Of good conscience,
and the blessings Of the poor and the down.
trodden-a blessing which maketh rich and ad-
deth no sorrow-will be ours.
Shall it be said that while other nations
Christian, Infdel, and MahOmmedan-are devils
ing ways and means to get rid of this evil, that
free Christian America will connive at efforts to
smuggle the institution inseeotser lands which
have been cousecrated to Freedom Shall 1t be
said that while politicians revolt at the enormity
Of such suggestion, the conscences Of protesting
Christians can endure q longer shame We
leave these questions with you, and ask you to
ponder upon them, and answer them to your con-
sciences and TO God.

make a benevolence of supporting the crushed
and crippled mass!
Party patriotism may erect a monument to Mr.
Clays memory-eatraged humanity will drive
stake through it. He will have more mourners
than admirers and the btterest tears will be best
deserved.
The chivalry Of the middle ages had something
human in tit had lofty dreams and generous
coursge-it relieved its wrong something by its
risks but this detestable fraud, now substituted
for that rude force, employs a skulking cunning
to do the devilish work Of general oppression; it

build their hopes to ruin them IL plays the buck
stefng sharper afevery turn Of it's serpent policy

the sacrifice of human life and happiness without

The actual politics of this Government, just
now, tends to no other end than the virtual serf-
dom of labor under democratic institutions, where
a revolution is apparently revolt against moral
and social duty and so much the more difficult,

The public domain must not be given away
from the poor white man, in order to set free the
poor black man. The States are foreign Govern
ments to each other, with respect to their internal
policy and institutions Compensation is ques-
ton for them to settle and adjust. The slave
States will abolish slavery when it is their own
policy--when events make it their policy; and
when that day comes, the free people, North and
South, will understand the matter too well to
mortgage all the wealth and means of wealth in
the country to the expiring dynasty.
