A Confession.

One circumstance which occurred at the recent
Anti-Slavcry Fair has occasioncd us some re-
grct, and We think it best to alludc to it here
On the last evening, while the hall was in great
confusion, some onc--we don't know who
proposed to effect the sale OF child's bureau by
raising its price in contributions Of twenty-five
cents, and then giving it to the one whose name
should be drawn from hat simultaneously with
a card on which was written the word bureau
Some ono asked us for twenty-five cents, and
VIC gave tive confess without rejecting that
the arrangement was similar to lottery, and
therefore Objectionable on moral grounds. No
tickets were issued, and the whole thing was
done in great haste. 1t so happened, VIC UNDER
stand, that there was n mistake in the first draw
ing of the names, and they were drawn Sec
ond time, when the bureau was pronounced
ours. Refusing to profit by the transaction, We
gave it again to the Fair, and il was sold at aue-
ton. Not until it was all over did it once oe-
cur to us that the arrangement was liable TO Sc
rious objection. We now see and lament tho
error, and can assure our friends that we shall
be very careful not to offend in that way again
1t is proper to say that the managers Of the
Fair, as such, did not authorize the transaction.
and VIC believe the individuals concerned all re-
grct it as much as we do. We assume without
hesitation our share of tho blame, and hasten to
make the only atonement in our power. Were
oice in the conviction that, with this single un-
fortunate exception the Fair was conducted in
/ nunlincf;nnab1o 1rtta ,,,ch hsa
been said because the managers consented to
close tho Fair at nine o'clock on Wednesday
evening in order that two individuals. on their
own responsibility, might provide a supper for
New Years cotillion party, with the under
standing that the proceeds should 60 into the
Treasury of the Western Anti Slavery Society.
In our judgment both the managers and the ia
dividuals did right, and no more made them
selves responsible for the sin of dancing BY al
lowing the dancers to eat their turkics and
chickens, than the merchants did who sold them
their coats and dresses. Bad as the ball was, 1t
was not half as immoral in its influence as some
of the Churches in town; and we apprchend
that if the Methodsts, with Parson Montgome-
ry at their head, had asked for a supper under
the same circumstances, they would have found
no difficulty in obtaining it. Nor would any
body, in that case, have thought of holding the
individuals who might have given it responsible,
for the pro-slavcry of that Church, or for any
other of its catalogue Of mcannesscs and sins
And we submit that if you can innoccntly sell I
meal to a pro-slavery Methodist, there is ne
crime in permitting mere ordinary sinners Il
come to your table. However, let every on,
Judge for himself.

sertion at as carly day as possible. We must
not sacrifice variety to originality. As general
thing, our First and Fourth Pages must be oc-

neous Selections. The two Inside Pages we
shall endeavor to divide cquitably between our
own Editorials and tho favors Of correspondents,
giving precedence always to such articles as are
Of most immediate interest and Importance
We not unfrequently receive communications
which we deem worthy Of publication, but
which, being unavoidnbly excluded from week
to week by the pressure of matter which must
take precedence, lose their interest and finally
take their place in the pigcon-hole bearing the
ominous label, Rejected If it will be any
consolation to the writers, we can assure them
that some of our own lucubrationS share the same
untoward fate. We have now on hand Editori-

the noble example Of Col. Kane, of Philadel-

Another Slave Case in Pennsylvania.

About three months since writ was issu-
ed by Commissioner Edw. ID. Ingraham, for
the arrest of fugitive slave, who, il was
alleged, WIS then residing al Parksburgh,
Chester county. The Marshal did not sue
ceed IN arresting the man, and until Friday
last the writ remained imperative.
On Friday night last, party, consisting
Of Deputy Marshal Ilutzell, Constable Agen,
and four or five other men, proceeded TO
Coatesyille, Chester county, 10 execute the
writ. They arrived at the mouse where the
fugitive was supposed to be secreted, and
knocked at the door. A colored woman
opened the windows TO know their business,
when she was informed tina, thoy had broken
the traces of their wagon and wished light
to mend them. She came down stairs and
admitted the party in waiting.
After they had effected an entrance and
were proceeding up stairs, they were met by
two colored men aud two colored women.-
The women and one of the men were arm
Cd with axes, and the other had gun. The
Marshal told them that they were IN search
of fugitive slave; but they refused to let
him or my OF his men enter the room. The
gun was taken from the man, and tile party
endeayored TO disarm the man with the ak.
A pistol was fired at him, the ball of which
must have entered his breast, but he still
maintained his resistance. The fight con.
tinued until the Southern gentleman, who
was with the party, advised the Marshal to
withdraw, remarkDg that he would not have
one OF them killed for all the negroes ia
Pennsylvania. The party then retired. Sever
nj shots were fred, and more than one col
ored person is supposed to have been shot
One wns seen to fall as the officers wer.
leaving. None Of the Marshals party were
injured.-Phia. Bulletin.

The Eery Latest By Telegraph TO London.
PARIS, Dec 9th decree was issued
TO day ordering the voting, on the Goth inst.
TO be zone secretly. instead of public. Ru-
mors were rife OF continued fighting, but
we're not believed. The latest published
accounts states that the insurgents had been
put down, but mol without severe struggle
Accounts from the Provinces were general
~ favorable TO the President.
The firing was continued by the troops
and The combat ntinued with spirit for half
an hour. Further down the Boulevards
cannon and muskeIs were freely used till 4
o'clock when the fighting in that quarter
ceased, but continued in other sections.
No definite particulars have been publish
ed, and little is known beyond the fac, that
sanguinary conflict had taken place.
Many persons not engaged on either side
had been killed or wounded.
The last accounts from Paris represent
the troops as successful at all points.
Seven hundred French refugees left Lon.
don for Paris on Thursday.
The movements Of the troops are rapid,
silent, but firm. On Thursday many berri-
cades were thrown up. At o'clock, while
a body Of 5000 troops were passing along
the Boulevares, several shots were fred from
the neighboring houses.

COMMITTEE OF Thirteen" to secure the legal
defence ofpersons claimed as fugitive slaves.
were announced and received. This commit
tee consisted solely of colored persons. An
address was presented, the tenor of which
will be apparent from the following extracts:
Gov kossuth: We appear before you to
pay homage to great principle which you
announce with so much distinctness, ard up
hold with so much power, the principle that
a man has the right to the full exercise Of bis
faculties and power in the land which gave
him birth, and that it is bis first duty to de-
vote all the energies of his being to maintain
that right for himself and his compairiots.
We feel that this great principle is surely
gaining ground. and we hail in your person
its living Apostle, who has given it voice and
expression. We would express the deep
sympathy We feel u you, because of the rea-
ton you sustain to Liberty. We feel that
your mission is most happy and propitous
enc. We see in it q part of the special or
dering of Providence. The landing of the
Pilgrim Fathers our Declaration of Inde-
pcndencc; the Revolutionary struggle, led by
Washington; and the later developments of
the principles Of Liberty, as seen in the strug-
giles now going on in our own country for its
further advancement and application to all
men, are kindred efforts
M. Kossuth replied:
have no intention, gentlemen to make a
speech. ! believe you do not expect it from
me- Last night had an opportunity to ex-
press my humble wishes, on which occasion
made propositions to the people Of the Uni
tea States. Now, know the sympathy of
the people OF ss,s.e United States for the cause
which lrepresent, ana confidently hope they
will be made aware, after the statements |
made last evening, that the time for addresses
had passed, and the time for action has come.
And therefore | will take this very ground at
every new proof and new testimonial which is
given me Of sympathy of the kind attention
of the friendly feelings toward that cause, to
answer, that while thank your generous peo-
pie most cordially for your expressions of
sympathy, | hope you will also feel inclined
to do something for the cause. GApplause I

FREDERICK FEMALE SEMINARY.


We cordially endorse the statements con-
corning this excellent Institution as set forth
in the advertisement in another column. We
believe it successfully vies with any similar
one in the land as finishing school for young
ladies'; and while their moral and religious
sentiments are earnestly cared for, it is free
from s5ct...ianism, or rather, it has Professors
belonging to the descent denominations. who
regularly attend worship with the pupils
We need not itcrate the advantages, physical
and moral of its location in this community
they are we'll known. The beginning of
the year is a convenient time for boarders
and day scholars to enter aud we would en-
courage Parents and Guardians to take ad-
vantage Of the occasion. The Seminary de-
servedly enjoys large share OF patronage,
which is increasing yearly still its extensive
and comfortable arrangements will accommo-
date ten or twelve more
