Preserving the Union.

Mr.. Webster has recently been making a
tour through the valley of Virginia into the
region where he recently received nomination
for the Presidency. At public dinner given
him at Capon Springs, the following sentiment
was offered.
The FUGrTyR SLAVE LAw-Upon its faithful
execution depends the porpetuity of the Union.
Mr.. Webster rose to reply and spoke as
follows:
am glad to hear these sentiments of dcvo-
ton to the Union expressed by Mr.. Bruce, who,
as l understand, has differed from me on many
subjects, as many other respectable and worthy
men have done. But whatever may have been
the differences of opinion which have existed
between us heretofore on other subjects, they
are now forgotten, and the only question that is
now asked of any man is, are you Union man J
The question at this time is the Union and how
to preserve its blessings for the present and for
all time 10 come-&., &c., &c., as he has said
many times before.

A Suggestion.

The anniversary of the Society has ordi-
narily been the time for paying and renew
ing pledges for its pecuniary support That
all may have opportunity Of aiding in this,
will not the friends get together in their sew
eral localities, see that the old pledges are
sent up-and new ones made from such as
will not be in attendance. Or let some in
dividuol undertake the responsibility of this.
in his or her ueighborhood. The Commit
tee as the agents of the Aboitionists, are
pledged to the creditors of the Society. They
have made their promises to pay, on tho
faith of the pledges made at the last anniver-
sary. All interested will of course feel tho
importance of enabling them to meet their
engagements.
Another thing. As we have few or no To-
cal societies now, would. il not give more eff
fcency to neighborhood. efforts, if a vigi-
lance Committee, of men and women, were
appointed in every town, to attend to the in
terests of the cause in that vicinity. Let II
be their business TO collect fiinds-introduce
pnpers-circulate books, make arrangements
for meetings, &c. Think of it friends, and
if it meets your appreciation act. accordingly.

The Annual Meeting.

It will be seen by the preceding notice, that
the Executive Committee have finally fixed
upon the time and place Of the Annual Meeting.
1t was thought that by commencing on Sunday,
end devoting that day exclusively to the dis
cusson of the great principles of our enterprise,
would be accommodated with opportunity to
listen than by any other arrangement. As we
shall be compelled to worship on that day in
Gods great temple-none need fear exclusion
for want Of room.
The place has been selected in part, in conse-
quence of its proximity to the rail l-road, and
the facilities thus offered for access. We hope
on this occasion to SEQ tho Abolitionists of the
West from all parts, strong in heart-wise in
counsel, and liberal in purpose. The North,
OF course will be there. Let us have full re-
presentation from the central and southern parts
Of our State. Let Indiana, Northern Illinois
and Michigan be represented. All this territory
is now open by great thoroughfares to Cleve-
land, from whence our place Of meeting will be
but three hours ride, by railroad. Time and
distance thus comparatively annihilated, and
those facilities destined during the coming year,
TO be greatly increased, we shall be able here
after to cooperate moro effectually through all
our great territory. A glorious work has alrea-
dy been begun in Michigan and Indiana. II
should go on toward perfection in these States,
and in Ohio, and should bo extended to Illinois
and Wisconsin, fom whence already comes to
us the cry, come over and help us'-for there
are there IS elsewhere, earnest labororS in the
cause of freedom.

The Remedy.

A writer in the New York Observer, speak
ing of laborors in the French Cities, says,
"Their physical condition is sadly painful,
and is one more reason why they go astray.-
Their wages, generally, are below their ncccssi-
tics The majority Of workmen, especially
since the introduction Of the steam engine, gain
hardly enough for bare subsistence. The re-
volution Of February, by diminishing tho pub
lie wealth and sales Of merchandise, has further
increased their distress. Thoy have little work
and less pay. What can they do in such cir
cumstancesi And how shall they escape tho
sad temptations of povortyl
After an examination of the remedies .propo-
sed for these evils, by the various parties in
France, he says,
"But II is too evident that these solutions
would not avail anything. The cause of tho
evils is deeper; it is in the heart in the con-
science Of Frcnchmen. All citizens, without
exception, employers as well as workmen, need
to become better, to have sounder principles, to
do their duties more faithfully. They must DO
changed. And how! 1 know of but one way:
the French must be changed by the revival Of
true Christian faith, which is the potcer of God
Without this all is illusion and deception: this
alone is the way of safety"
The revival of a religion based upon the de-
pravity of the "hearts and consciences," of the
people is here proposed as a remedy for ignor-
anco-nakedness and starvation. They ask for
bread and receive stone, for a fish and are
profercd a serpent. That employers and work.
mon, everywhere need to become better,
we by no means deny. But We do deny that
they can be made better by the exercise of any
faith or religion, while society dooms them to
iUnnronno and etorvat;o, m, o.o,oa.o.o,,.
claims of dogmatic theology, to procure for its
yotaries salvation here and hereafter, are be-
gining to be properly appreciated. The time is
past, or at least passing, when the Church can
maintain her supremacy, by magnifying her
mystic power, to procure future salvation, to the
dispuragement or neglect of social justice. The
great measures of social reformers, who propose
to give freedom to the slave, soil for culture to
the landlcss, and to secure adequate compensa.
ton for the toll of the laborcr, will do more for
the elevation of morals, and the publication of
the hearts of all classes, than the preaching of
dogmas however hoary with tim or the revi-
val OF religion, however characterized by ex-
cternent or "power"
Place the laborer in this position, and you en-
dow him with that independence which enables
him to render obedience to the laws of humani-
ty engraved upon the hearts of all-and
which can never be wholly oblitcrated by those
complicated wrongs which society-govorn-
ment and popular religion inhict. The clastici-
ty OF the human mind, when emancipated from
these oppressive circumstances, will, in time
restore itself. Like the physical system, there
is embodied in its very organization a recupera-
tive energy to purify, and restore. Moral quack-
cry, like that proposed above has by past ex-
pcriencc been proved worse than unavailing

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES meets August ard.
Anniversary OF the Western Anti
Slavery Society.

The Executive Committee of the
Western Anti-Slavery So2iety, here
by give notice that the Annual
Meeting of the Societywill be held
in the neighborhood of MT. UNION
Stark Co., Ohio, a distance of three
or four miles from Alliance on the
Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad.
The meeting will commence on
SUNDAY the 24th of AUGUST, at 10
o'clock, A. NJ, to continue for three
days. The first day will be devo-
ted to the discussion of the impor-
tant principles and measures of our
enterprise.
PARKER PILLSBURY, G. G..
BURLEIGH, and perhaps others
from the East, will be present, impart-
ing interest to the occasion by their
eloquence and aiding in the impor-
tant deliberations. The many and
unparalleled interests connected
with our cause-its present interes-
ting position-the favorable condi-
ton of the public mind for pressing
its claims, will urge upon all the
friends Of freedom without any
agency of ours, the Importance of
this annual assembly. The Com
mittee do, however, earnestly invite
all the members and friends of the
Society, to come up on this occa-
sion and give to the cause the en-
couragement of their presence and
the aid of their counsel in securing
more vigorous and efficient efforts
than We have heretofore been able
to adopt.
In behalf the Executive Committee,
SARAH McMILLEN,
SECRETARY.

Indiana Constitution.

The Christian Anti-Slavery Convention. Of
Indiana, which assembled at indianapolis in
May last, have issued circular to ministers OF
the Gospel Of all denominations in the State.
exhorting them to use their influence against
the 18th Article of the proposed State Constitu-
ton. The following is the article referred to.
We quote from the Indiana True Democrat:
SECTION l. No Negro or Mulatto shall como
INTO, or settle in the State, after the adoption OF
this Constitution.
SIC 2. All contracts made with any Negro
or Mulatto coming into the State contrary to
the provisions Of the foregoing section, shall be
VOID and any person who shall employ such
Negro or Mulatto, or otherwise encourage him
10 remain in the State, shall be fined in any sum
not less than ten dollars nor more than fiyc hun
dred dollars.
SEC .. All fines that may be collected for a yio.
lation of the provisions of this article. or anv
law which may hereafter be passed for tho pur-
pose OF carrying the same into execution shall
DC set apart and appropriated for the coloniza-
ton OF such Negroes and Mulattoes, and their
defendants, as may be in the State at the time
OF the adoption of this Constitution, and NAV be
willing to emigrate.
SEC. 4. The General Assembly shall pass
laws to carry on. the provisions of this article.
If Indiana shall adopt this as part of her Con-
stitution, she will degrade herself below tho
hcathenism of New Zealand. Her ministers
may well suspend their foreign missions and de-
vote themselves to domestic efforts. The pre-
judice and hatred which would incorporate such
injustice into their State Constitution, is to be
denounced and abhored even as slavery ITSELF
So long as this sentiment exists, the work of
Abolitionists remains to be done. Indiana
should be the field of missionary effort.
That constant friend of tho slave, Henry q.
Wright, who has just returned from the East,
intends soon making Indiana the scat of his ef-
forts for time. We rejoice at this. The field
will evidently afford an abundance of labor, and
we hope he may reap corrcspondingly abun-
dant harvest.

NoRTn AND SourH.-Every body knows that
the Southern Press is great on statistics. Mr..
Fisher proves every thing by figures which cant
lie.' By demonstrating and urging the unpre-
cedented superiority of the South over the
North, he must be paving the way for northern
annexation, as soon as the southern Union shall
be formed. Our readers will remember an art-
Gle we published week or two since in which
he proved that the North was fast becoming
dcpopulated. He has in his last proved that
the average deaths are only half os great in
number in Georgia as in the state of New York
and only one fourth what they are in the City.
That taxation in Georgia is only one fourth,
one half or one sixth as much as in N. Y. as the
population, the white, or the property basis is
taken; and finally that white person in Goor-
gia is three times as rich as one in N. York. A
great country that, where the people are born
so fast and die SO slow-pay so few taxes and
keep SO wondrous rich.

GOOD sIoN.-In the january No. of the
MiAen'al Har6enger, Alexander Campbell issu-
cd his famous argument COR the divinity of the
fugitive slave law, accompanied with abun-
dant exhortations for christian alacyity in obey
ing it, In the same number he also proposed
that each member of the Disciple Church in the
U. S. should forward to him twenty-five cents,
or that each church should send that amount
for each of its members, for the purpose of
erecting an ediice in Washington City for the
use of their sect Urging in support of the
measure, the Importance of central denomina-
tional influence upon the scat of our national
government.
Time was, when Mr.. Campbelrs wish or sug-
gcstion was law to the Disciples of the west.-
But how have the mighty fallen. In the juno
number, five months after the appeal he reports
as follows: Indiana $40, Michigan 81, Penn
sylvania 50, all other free States NONE. Total
THIRTY DOLLARS.
Let the slave rejoice at this indication of dis
sent from the atrocious sentiments of Alexan-
der Campbell on tho subject of slavery
Though the veneration Of this church is great
for its founder and leader and their desires for
the extension and aggrandizcment of their
church all controlling, and their connection with
slaveholding churches extensive and fratcrnal,
yet they cannot bo brought to build up the
system by pecuniary contributions which go so
directly and palpably to the support of the sys-
TEN as tho one to which we have referred.
We expect no efficient aid from the organiza-
ton in the work of emancipation, it is like
Others in league with slavery. But the fact to
which we havo alluded is an indication that
conscience may yet assert its supremacy over
the members of the association. From them We
shall expect accessions to our ranks.

MICHIGAN CoNsPIRAroRs.-The trials now
going on at Detroit which have already lasted
several weeks are developing most astonishing
facts such as in this country have been seldom
If ever equaled. There seems to have been
conspiracy along the whole line of the Michigan
Central rail road for the destruction of prop
erty OF the Company, and the lives of passen-
gers and hands employed. Men of wealth and
high social standing are charged with partici-
pating in the conspiracy.

NOT ALL ALONE.

BY ALARTC A. WATTS.
N OF all alone; for thou canst hold
Communion sweet with saint and sage:
And gather gems, of price untold,
From many a concentrated page;
Youths dreams, the golden lights ofage,
The poets lore, are still thine own;
Then, while such themes thy thoughts engage
Oh, how canst thou be all alone
Not all alone; the lark's rich note,
AS mounting up to heaven, she sings;
The thousand svery sounds that float
Above, below, on mornings wings;
The softer murmurs twiligh! brings
The cricket's chirp, Cicadas glee;
All earth, that Tyre of myriad strngs,
ls Jubilant with life for thee!
Not all alone; the whispering trees,
- The nppling brook, the starry sky,
Have each peculiar harmones
10 soothe, subdue, and sanctify;
The low, sweet breath of evenings SIGH.
For thee hath oft a friendly tone,
10 Lift thy grateful Thoughts on high.
And say-ihou art not all alone!
Not all alone; watchiul Eye,
That notes the wandering sparrow'sfsll.
A saving hand is ever nigh,
A glorious Power attends the CALI
When sadness holds the heart in thrall.
Otis His tenderest mercies shown:
Seek, then, the balm vouchsafed to all,
ana thou canst never be alone!
