reply to which we published Thursday

ly sign every line Of it, Pursue your
holy work. You have with you all
great souls and all good hearts.
You are pleased 10 believe and 10 as
sure me that my voice, in this august
cause of slavery, will be listened 10 by
the great American people, whom love
SO profoundly, and whose destinies, l
am fain to think, are closely linked with
the mission Of France. You desire me
to lift up my voice.
will do it at once, and will do il on
all occasions. agree with you in
thinking that within definite time ;
that within Il time not distant, the Uni
ted States will repudiate slavery with
horror. Slavery in such n conntry!-
Can there be an incongruity more mon
strous Barbarsm installed in the very
heart ofa society which 10 itself the af.

a chain; bIasphemy echoing from the
altar; the collar Of the negro chained to
the pedestal of Washington! II is a
thing unheard Of. say more, il is im-
possible. Such a spectacle would
destroy itself. The light of the nine
tecnth century alone is enough 10 des.
troy it.
What! Slavery sanctioned by law
among that illustrious people who for
seventy years have measured the pro-
gress of civilization by their march, de-
monstraicd democracy by Their power,
and liberty by their prosperity! Slave
ry in the United States! Ii is The duty
of this republic TO set such a bad exam
pie no longer. II IL Il shame, and she
was never born to bow her head.
tits not when slavery is taking leave
OF old nations, that it should be received
by the new. What! When slavery is
departing from Turkey, shall it rest IN
America! What! Drive it from the
hearth Of Omar, and adopt it at the
hearth of Franklin No ! No! No!
There is an inhexible logic which de-
veiopa more or less slowly, which fash
ions, which redrcsses according TO a
mysterious plan, perceptible only to
great spirits, the facts, the men, the
laws, the morals, the people or better,
under all human things, there are things
divine.
Let all those great souls who love
the United States, as a country, be re-
assured. The United States must re-
nounce slavery, or they must .enounce
liberty. They cannot renouncc liberty.
They must renouncc slavery or re-
nounce the Gospel. They will never
renouncc the Gospel.
Accept, Madam. with my devotion to
the cause you advocate, the homage of
my respect

LpMr. Scherb's Lecture on Monday
evening, introductory TO his course on
some Of the chief Poets of Europe, was
one Of the most beautiful, philosophical
and poetical statements OF the nature,
mission, and prospects Of Poetry" which
we ever heard. There were only TIVE
things to regret,~-the dlmness Of the
lights and the smallness Of the audience,
circumstances, however, which did not
dim nor dull the spirit of the speaker
We trust that, ct some future time, our
citizens will have an opportunity Of
hearing production OF such uncommon
business and beauty. Meanwhile we do
hope that those who have a soul for in
telIcctual beauty (and if it were not use.
less to say it, we would add to those
who have not,) would attend the re-
naming Lecture or Lectures Of Mr..
Scherb's course. We can assur them
that they would carry away with them
thoughts and Impressions that would
long remain with them MS light ideals
over the dusty road Of life.

EPunch says in a paraphrase of
Macbeth =" II Barnum would but come
TO Drury Lane" he would make that

more than quarter Of century.
