LIFE IN TIE BOSTON PULPIT.


The following note is said TO have been
read IN one OF our pul pis on Sunday last
"Shsdrach, fugitive slave, desires the
prayers Of this church, and Of all christian
people, to aid him in his efpr,s TO escape from
the hands Of the slave hunters now seeking
for his lfe."
We suppose that the higher law" cler-
eymen prayed mos, Justify aud ehristdniy
for the "aid " and /" eff,t,s" which were
made, viz: the rampling Of law completely
under foo, by black mob. We should ad
n,ire to look into the AFORESAID clergyman's
heart and see the spirit and humanity circu.
la,ing through it, and then hear him pray that
heaven would vouchsafe aid IN assisting The
downfall of the very column ard cement oi

TO listen TO his sweet strains praying hat
