lfthc legal relations of slavery did not Sis
tain the moral ones, as the root sustaiis the
branches aud nourshes the fruit, those NOR
nj relations would seem TO demand all our
attention. know hut comparatively little,
and no man living at the North can know
but comparatively little, of the various and
ever repeated wickcdncss of this Institution.
Ii has been my lot, however, to live for
about half the time, during the last four
years, in the midst of mildcr form ofslave-
ry. And besides this, was once engaged
for about six weeks in the trial OF cause
growing out of slavery; and that experience
gave me some insight into its dreadful nys-
terics. For moment, the wind blew the
smoke and flame aside, and looked into its
hells. ! saw, then, as had never seen be-
fore, what vital and ineXtingushable in
tercst every human being has in this sub
jcct mot the slaves alone, but the free
men, not voters only but all who can bc af-
fccted by votes, not men only but especially
women.
For this reason am glad TO see so many
ladies in this audience. 1t becomes them
to be here. lfany mortal should cultivate
an adherence of slavery, the female sex
should do it. Whatever any one may hold
to be the social relation between free wo-
men and slave women, yet before God and
Christ and all the holy Angels, they belong
to the same sisterhood of the human race
They nre your sisters. Aud what is the con
dition of.these your sisters, in regard to every
thing that ylrtuous aud noble woman holds
most sacred and dear?
Ladies, there are now in this land of pre-
tended freedom and pretended Gospel, a
million aud half of women, who have no
practical knowledge Of what woman's
! higher life should be, or what woman's
most precious rights are. Since the Decla-
ration of Independence, the number of slaves
in this country has increased from less than
| five hundred thousand to more than three
millions; and before tho close ofthis centu,
| ry, their descendants will increase TO more
than thrice three millions. And yet neither
as TO the living nor as to the dead has there
ever been a lawful marriage among them all
| There has never been mnn-slave who
could say-"l'his is my wife, heart fmy hear
and life of'my life, and no mortal power shal
pluck her from my side" There has novel
been woman-slave who could say, "Thii
is my lawful, welded husband, whom
promise 10 love and cherish, and to whom
vow inviolable constancy." "For tbi.
cause" says Christ, " shall man leave faith
er and mother, and shall cleaye 10 his wife
and they twain shall he one flesh." But the
"twain" Of slaves are never one. And ever
when any sham ceremony is observed, tC
distinguish this holy relation of husband anC
wife from The cohabllaiion of beasts, and hC
who officiates comes TO those other words o

My DEAR Sin: am hardly able to de-
termine what and how much you mean by
your expressions of disapproval of the de-
nuncations of the Garrisonians, and the
cut-throat speeches" of ''now and then
ono of tI,cnl." Are we to understand that
they orc guilty of falscbood and misrcprc-
sentation, or that il is not desirable that Re.
formers Should always speak the Truth. l
cannot think it is the latter. For one of the
best scrmous 10 which ever listened, was
preached by yourself, from the words
"The Tfial shall make us frcc,o Ii, which
you appeared to heartily subscribe to the
doctrine Of your text. Again--I have never
discovered in you that disrclisl for this arti-
Gle which characterzcs large share of our
public men. On the other hand, can you
charge them with untruihfulness in their
representations of Slavery and kindred
denominations with which they are at war?
VIII you stake your reputation on the usser-
ton that the English language contains terms
so lIursll and odious thatlliey may not justly
and appropriately be applied to the support
crs and npoosists of American Slavery
Was the venerable Wesley too fast in saying
that slavery was she sum Of all piRianies"?
How much less comprehensive is this delara-
tion than the dcnunciations of Foster,
Wright, g. Co? My Dear Sir, it is 10 time
for soft words, when humanity is being out
ragged, insultcd, crushed; when human be-
ings arc being bought and sold, chained and
scourged; when the helpless inlhnt is torn
hand from the embrace of his loving wife
and sold Ike beasts in the market; when lc-
male virtue, purity and lovciness is expos
cd on the auction block, 10 feast the gaze of
ficndish libcrtncs, and sold to the highest
bidder, to crafty his helish lust! o Sir, |
can command 10 language that viii express
the utter adherence, the deep contempt aud
loathing with which contemplate the actors
and their occomplces in this dcvlish busi-
ness. Among the latter recognize us the
most conspicuous, tlc hordcs of vile priests
that iniest our country, poisoning the public
morals with their pestilerous BREATH sowing
broadcast the seeds sofimmoraity,an atheism
and communicating every thing they touch.
Naught but the "Irudh" can q" free" us from
all this. If milk-and water" speeches, SER
mons, talk, milk-undwatcr" every Thing,
would have been at all cficacous, our coun-
try would have been redeemed long ago. If
we would not be liars we must call things
by their right names. The good and the
true must be recognized as such, and the vile
and mean must be treated according 10 their
true character. IL makes bur little difference
whether we raise the devil up to Heaven, or
thrust the Almighty down to Hell, so as VIC
place them oil level.
With sincere respect,

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July %, 1851.
My DEAR MARIUs We had good meet
ings here Sunday. In the forenoon spoke
on Spirituality, and twice in the afternoon
on slavery, though others participated in all
ihe meetings. But this is a very religious
place, and humanity stands poor chance.
Well, now tina; am ailoOt, no more see
ahe Bugle. No one can tell the loss, until
he has experienced il. do not know what
is going on in your region, but hope one
thing ,Val 60 on, and that IS your Aniyersa-
ry. May the abolitionsts Of Ohio keep tho
Annual Meeting in mind, and get ready for
it beforehand, and be sure to be there. And
there ought to be some there from Michigan.
Will the friends there remember? We
ought to have good time, and great time.
As you are full of matter, will not write
much more, for you would not probably be
able TO publish it if did. Writing, is not
of half us much consequence as acting, and
whether we write or not, it behooves us to
see 10 it that we do-that we work-that we
labor. Speech-making will never put down
slavery, nor will writing for the papers 1t
is action, action, action, that isnecdcd. And

Chief Justice Parsons.

The Commonwealth publishes the follow
ing important extract from speech made
10y Theophus Parsons in the Massachusetts
Convention for the adoption of the Federal
Constitution.
'The gentleman from Boston (said Par
sOns) has stated most Of tho checks the pco-
pie have against usurpation aud against the
abuse of powor, undor the proposed Consti-
tuition but Ia the abundance of Ills matter,
he has in my opinion omitted two or three
which shall mention. The oath tnken by
the several legislative, executive and judicial
officers of the different States, to support tho
Constitution, is as e6tciuaL a security against
The uslppaiion of The General Government, as
il is against the encroachment of tie State
Governments. For an increase Of polcers by
uStupaiiOn is as clearly q UioiGtion Of The FEEDER
al Constitution as a diminmion Of those Poleers

bnt mad men would attempt an usurpntion.
But, sir, the people themselves have IT in
their power eGectually TO resist an usnrpa-

The Brutality Of Slavery and the Hypocrisy
of IFS AbcttOrs.

Professor FELTON, of Cambridge College
recently made an attack upon Hon. Horace
Mann. He cInrges him with indulging in a
breadth Of lcwd allusions and glowing oh.
seniiy seldom ycntured upon in the presence
of a mixed audience of both scxes.' And
what was it wbichso outraged the propre-
" and purity of this honorable professor /?
simply aud only a description of some of
The incidents relating to, and inscpcroble
ifom slavery This scholastic IIypocric who
is also volunteer advocate for tie purity of
Mr.. Webstci's laiin--was borrificd at any al
lusion to this existing state of things. The
existence of the facts lie does not deny
The practical lcwdness and obsccuiy seems
not all to shock lis nerves 1t is only the
description Of the thing given to ears classic
and polite, of the nobocraiic students of
llavrd, that aroused his indignation. Mr..
Alnnn deserves tue thanks of all friends of
purity for lis truthfulcxposurc. We extract
it from the Commonwealth, whici, has Sc
ycrely castisated the professor for his
hypocrisy.
Let the world blush to know that The he
role Dnyton aud Sayrcs WHO risl,ed ikcir
lives and lost their liberty in efforts to cman-
cpatc the beautiful aud pure minded women
referred 10, are now dying by inches in our
national Jail at Washington for thisact of
humanity! For attempting to rescue these
women from their brutal tormentors, women
who for their integrity and virtue deserve a
place in history beside Rebecca and Lucre-
lia-thcse American citizens arc stripped Of
their propcrty-scparatcd from their families
aud doomed for years to tic itlon's cell.

An Attempt TO Escape.

A negro boy, says the Charleston rs. CT
Mercury OF Tuesday, was discovered secret
ed on board the ship Carnatic .yenerday, by
the Capt, just as she was Oh the point of ieav-
ing for Liverpool. Afler having warmed his
jacket pretty thoroughly, lie was put ashore,
aud lett the wharf in al,urry. We arc in
formed that the matewas suspected Of being
prlyy 10 the attempted cccapc.
Tile above is the Ledger's record of the
melancholy future OF on attempt TO escape
from the lifelong tormeuis Of slavery. Not
a word of sympathy has this Northern paper
for that unfortunate hoy; not WORD Of COM
mendation to the man suspected Of being
INSTRUMENTATION, nos OF reh,lke, to Ais Gepdish
tortiircrs, nor one expression of nunly ab-
hoTence for the system which thus dooms
children to n life of chattelsm, and fogs
them for aspiring TO be men. Yet this
journal can spend columns of Indignation
and pathos over some act of cruelty by an
Austrian Off Ger, Rus sian underlng, or
Italian government The Lcdger's humanity
aud sympathy seem 10 pc graduated by the
Two considerations of complexion and dis
tancc, increasing in proportion TO the deli
cacy of the former, and the extent of the
latter, though therein it has no lack of com
pany among the Philadelphia Presses, or of
influential support from the pulpit of the city.

HOW TO LoAD A GUN, sc.


The following article is recommended and
endorsed by an experienced gunner of our
town:
The Rev. DIR. Knight, in an elaborate ar
ticle on the "Scientifc use and General Man
agcment of the Fowling- Piece" addressed ito
the farming population" gives the following
directions for ascertaiuing the proper charge
for gun, &c, which il would be well for all
young Nimrods to Peruse
To ascertain the proper charge for fowl
ing piece, the following rule is to be observ-
ed Try it repeatedly,in the first place, with
equal bulks of powder and shot, ill YOU COME
to a Saantty with which the gun will not re-
coil, ~ but slightly. This is the'PrePer guam
tity of shot which, it will carry. Next, with
these equal quantities of powder and shot
stand at proper distance,and fire lHt board
and YOU will find the shot scattered in n't rtI-
rections Then lessen the quantity of pow
der and YOU will find il carries much closer
Lessen the powder a little more, but keep MP
the same quantity of shot, and it will carry
still closer. And TINS prurrcd tcssening the
powder till You come to 4 quantity with

Of powder ahd the other fido the quantity Of

you wish 10 carry holc farther than usual,
you are not a. increase the quantity pf either
ingredient Of the charge but see that thc'gun

Another point Of nearly equal Importance,
