ARRANGED FOR THE CADIz SABBATH SCHOOLS.
Tune--"HdH Coianedia."
To thee our lov'd Columbia's friend,
Our song of joy to-day we raise
Oh! from the heavenly courts descend,
Oh! from the heavenly courts descend,
And bless our heartfelt sacrifice,
And let us still enjoy thy grace:
While through the land fair freedoms song,
Our own dear parents raise to thee,
Our accents shall the notes prolong,
We little children too are free.
Firm united let us be,
Still to guard our liberty,
AS band Of brothers joined,
Peace and safety we shall find
The past with blessings from thy hand,
Have been most richly scattered DER,
AS numerous as the countless sand,
AS numerous as the countless sand,
That glitter on the oceans shore,
10 tell us of thy won'drous works,
Oh! may the future be as bright,
Nor be to us thy mercies less
Resplendent with the glorious light,
Of liberty and happiness.
Firm united let us be,
Still to guard our liberty,
AS band of brothers joined,
Peace and safety we shall find
While thus we praise thy mercies great,
In Heaven we place our only trust
May truth and virtue still prevail,
May truth and virtue still prevail,
And every scheme of bondage fail,
Which would our freeborn souls enslave;
Dear Lord! prepare US for the skies,
And fill our hearts with thy rich grace,
Teach US TO die, so that we may
With Joy behold the Judgment day,
Firm united let us be,
Still to guard our liberty,
As band of f6rothers Joined,
Peace and safety we shall find.

We come with joy and gladness,

Nor let note of sadness
Be mingled in our lays:
For tits hallowed story,
This theme of freedoms birth;
Our fathers deeds of glory
Are echoed round the earth.
The sound is waxing stronger,
And thrones and nations hear
Proud man shall rule no longer,
For God the Lord is near;
And he will crush oppression,
And raise the humble mind,
And give the earth's possession
Among the good and kind.
And then shall sink the mountains,
Where pride and power are crowned,
And peace, like gentle fountains,
Shall shed its pureness round.

And in thy shadow rest:
Our fathers bowed before thee,
And trusted and were blest.

With this our joyous lay.
Another year has run its round,
Since last we gathered here;

Invites our list'ning ear:
But many Sabbath hours are gone,
Of kind instruction given;
Oh, may the lessons we have learn'd
Guide us to Christ and Heaven.

VnLAMY-The Cairo Sun says that, few
days since, two men in wagon, when within a
couple of miles of Jonesboro', Union county,
Illinois, asked farmer who was the heaviest
merchant in that town. TIE farmer mentioned
some merchants, and among the number spoke
of a Mr.. Dishon. They drove their wagon up
to Dishon's store, and requested him to permit
them to place box, (Which they had in their
wagon in his store for the night. After urging
some objection, Mr.. ID. finally consented to take
the box in his's store room. The men then put
up their horses for the night, and early on the
following morning had their wagon at DIS store
door TO get their box and start on their journey.
Mr. ID. then missed bolt of fine broadcloth from
his counter. His suspicion being reused, he
examined his desk, and discovered that five humid
red dollars had been stolen during the night.
He then told the men that the box must not be
taken from the store until il was examined.
They swore that they would take their box, and
as they rushed TO take hold of 1t Mr.. ID. stepped
out of the door, and locked them in. Having
obtained assistance, the door was opened and
the men taken. The lid was knocked off, when
a stout, daring looking man sprang forth, and
the missing cloth, money, some silks, and dark
lantern, were found in the bottom. The fellow
pretended 10 turn Estates evidence" and de-
clared he bad long sought an opportunity to

unfairly would have brought their deadly ven-
geance upon him that he had never been de-
tected before that he remained with them only
because he was compelled to do so TO preserve
his life that there were now six hundred men

ness and that the last time he was at the gen.
eral money deposit station the company bad

two men swore 10 the officers that il was folly
to put them IN Jail, for they had money and

armed men to guard them, and notified them
that they could not possibly be detained three
weeks.-New Albany Ledger.

From the ~. Y. Tribune

The Legislature Of Connecticut meets to-day
at Hartford. The Wings have a majority
though small one, in both houses, and will be
able to Gil the State admin stration with men
Of the right stamp, and also TO return Roger 3.
Baldwin to the Z. s. Senate. The Locofoco
organs are opposing Mr. Baldwin on the ground
that ne is not in favor Of the present unconsti.
tutional law for slave catching, and that the
Union will be endangered by his election; of
course the choice Of a senator Of their own
stripe would not cause any such peril. Il re-
mains to be seen whether Wings will beinduced
to vote against tried and reliable Wing, and
in favor Of free trade and the eternity Of the
Fugitive slave law, in order TO oblige their OPP
bonents. For our part, we don't believe they
will. The salvation Of the Union is a mighty
poor hobby, even for deluded politicians in pur-
suit Of the Presidency and we shall be disap-
pointed il Mr. Toucey, or Mr. C. A. Ingersoll,
or any other aspirant of that kidney, succeeds
in riding il into the senate.

CHURCH AcTIoS ON SLAvERY.--The following
resolutions were adopted by the Grand River
Presbytery New School at their late meeting in
Jefferson county, Ohio:
Resolred, That civil governments are ordained
of God for the protection Of mankind against
wrongs, violence and crime
Resolved, That the Fugitive slave law lately
enacted by Congress, whereby we are foabidden,
under penalty Of fine and imprisonment, from
feeding the hungry and clothing our naked
brethren while fleeing from oppression, outrage
and degradation, is unchristian, barbarous, aud
entirely opposed TO the spirit Of the gospel and
the promptings Of humanity.
Rssolped, That while we acknowledge ale
glance to our government and its just laws, we
never can yield to any enactment which con-
trsvenes that higher law oflove which the gospel
enjoins.
Resoired, That while as christians we may not
feel justified in resisting the operations Of the
fugitive law by violence; yet as christians, as
brethren Of those in bonds we can never aid or
assist in its enfocemcnt
Resoir.d, That this Presbytery contemplates
with pain the action of those ministers and eccie
sastical bodies who attempt to apologize for,
and attempt to justify law which consigns 10
the scourge and to letters portion Of our brell.

The last experiment in the recapture of fugi-
tive slaves, that Of SIMS, at Boston, seems to
have satisfied the claimants of such property
completely We have not heard of any effort
of the kind since, although there must be fifteen
or twenty thousand fugitives in the Northern
States. The right Of paying $4,000 to recover
property worth $500, 10 magnificent acquisi-
particularly since it cost the gold of Cali.
fornia to pay for it.
We were told that it was necessary only to
test the law in Boston, to secure its triumph
and the ready recovery Of fugitives in future
Well, it has been tested-and how much has
the value of fugitive property advanced!
The expedients Of testing the law have been
curious sThey have been made by friends Of
the Compromise in the South, to strengthen
their cause. DR.. Collins is a warm friend Of
the peace measures; he undertook to illustrate
their virtue, and sent on for CRAFTS and his
wife. The result was an expensive, dangerous
vexatious, and ignominious failure; yet DR.
COLLINS came ont afterwards with superlative
avowal of Unionism. He would have his child
baptized with water from the chief rivers of the
United States. But for the sake of some of the
weaker brethren, whose faith would not, like
that Of DR.. COLLINS, move mountains, it was
thought necessary to prove the majesty and eff
ficiency of the law over again. So Mr.. PoTTEI
came forward, and has manfully sacrificed few
thousand dollars in the same cause.
Mr.. POTTER has done the business. Tn,
law is vindicated-the Compromise is safe
The North has got the territory, and the fugi
tive slaves both, it is true-but the South hal
