Saxon Talk Of The Matter.

The Essex County Freeman, one Of the most
spirited Free Soil papers in Massachusetts, gives
us q taste of the quality of abook on slave
ry published in London" in 1892, by +. w.
Hall, which took strongly the position that as
African slavery begins in violence and robbery,
no just rights can bo acquired by TT. DEM
"That audacious tyrannical and accurscd ava
rice which has set up its dominion over men
and property, has extended into tho pery concerns
Of the British Senate. contrary to the laws of JUS
tice and reason, bringing them into considera-
tions and CONCESSIONS as II robbers, there's, and
dcpredatorS had right to the profits Of their per-
fdy."
"Tho refinery of civilization has extended
protection and support to combination of man
stealers ard slavc-holdcrs contrary to all law,
reason, and justice; and the efficient execution
OF THE JUST LAW has no authority over them,
because those who ought to be the judges and
administrators of the law arc the dcpredators
and extortionors, AND PATTERNS IN THE NAT
TER: and the only true law. either in its severi-
ty, or wise and merciful mitigations is not re-
gardcd. How long shall it be, o Lord God of
Hosts that the people and nations will rule
against thee and forsake thy law
"In proportion as any government aGmits ty-
ranny, injustice and oppression, The people under
its jur isdiction piH be tyranTcai. treacherous,
copetous and unjust. And when such burbarity
as the abandoned traffic of slavery is any where
tolerated and suffered with impunity, and with
out hindrance by the government of any nation,
and where almost nothing else in comparison
could be reckoned as crimes among men, may
not every villain exult in his wickednOsS, and
triumph in the guilt Of his covetousness.''

Influence Of Free COlOred People on Eman.
cipatiOn.

Mr.. Birney, in his late pamphlet, intro
duced the idea, that the presence of the free
colored people was no longer useful in this
country, as an Anti.Slayery element Fred
crick Douglass in an able review of the
book, has the following reply to this reason
for emigration.
Mr.. Brney tells us that Our presence is no
longer necdinl to the slaves; that our good
conduct in this country eau he of no avail ;
that while il was once creditnble to remnin
here with view TO the slaves emancipation,
the case is now otherwise. This, To us,
sounds msnnthropic in the extreme. What
is Our doom then sealed? Is there no hope
for the slave, no justice for the free? Better
far, Mr.. Birney, that you had wrapped your
self in your own gloomy speculntions and
remained silent at Saginaw, than TO have
even whispered this chilling thought in the
ear of our very impressible people! For
our part, we can only think of the free peo-
pie of color leaving the slave alone in his
chains with shudder
II does seem obvious TO the commonest
kind of common sense, that the presence in
these United States of FIVE HUNDRED THOU
SAND FREE coLoRED People, grddu1iiy i'm
proving in education and increasing in wealth
and reiinemenis, furnishing pulpits with
learned aud eloquent divines, the bar with
able advocates, the press with powerful VIII
ters, the platform with speakers, the majesty
of whose eloquence is ucknowled even 10y
their enemies, must greatly tend to raise the
slave population into consideration, and serve
to awaken an interest in the nation nt large
in behalf of emancipation. II not, why arc
Shareholders so deeply interested in our re-
movnl? Why are they Mt this moment do
ing their utmost to establish n line of steam
ers between this country and the western
coast of Africa? Who does not know that
they are moved, governed, animated and
controlled in all they do 10y one single and
solitary motive aud that Is to establish slave
ry innovably in this country! They see a
hindrance to that purpose in the presence OF
the free people of color, aud that hindrance
they arc resolved to remove il they can.
They have already heard of the sympathy
felt among this class, for their brethren IN
bonds they know that, from the nature OF
the case, this feeling must increase. They
have seen that, within the last ten years,
Colored people at the North, have made as
ionishing progress towards nn influential po-
sion. They have seen starting from our
sable ranks, Doctors, LdlCyers, Professors, Dt-
zines, Lecturers, aud Editors, aud they are
afraid, and Justly so. They know from
what has been, what may be ; that if against
the terrible odds against us, so much has
been gained, more will he achieved.

Letter from an English Lady 10 Louis KOSulIl.

The following, faithful picture of Ameri-
can Slavery as it is, was addressed to, and
read by Kossuth, previous 10 his enlbarka-
ton from England. 1t was written by Mrs.
Mussic, the wife of n distinguished London
Clergyman.
Permit me to nsk your acceptance OF

substance of u lecture, delivered at Liver

among the foremost to welcome you; but he
felt that you were overwhelmed by a nations

cinted with liberty--so must il he with "Llb-

ny C. T.. sIPLE.

SALEM was laid out in the year 1906, by
Zadok Street, Sem, and John Straughn, both
of whom were members of the Society of
Friends from Red-Stone, Pa. The town i'm
proved but slowly for several years. But as
the place became known in Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Virginia, Carolina, and the New
England States, many came to purchase
home in the unbroken forest, at the rate of
$500 per acre. They endured many hard
ships in opening roads, bridging beaver
dams, bringing their provision from the Ohio
River, aud building their cabins. Many ia-
miles were obliged to live for weeks under
a shelter made of their wagon beds, or Of
clapboards, until they cleared the land. They
were all united in friendly feeling as one ia
mly-ever ready to lend helping hand to
each other. In some cases twelve or fifteen
men would collect, and build house in one
day from the stump, and put on the clap
board roof The Indians moved about 20
miles West. During the first winter, a deep
snow fell, which prevented the Indians from
finding game, and they became destitute Of
food. The Chief came here to sec if he
could find any of "Penn's Family" who
were ever ready to assist in time Of need
About seventy white men met and put thei
mites together, aud took them some corn
-four, bacon, and some loaves Of corn bread

FRASKLY STATED.-It is very noticeable,
that oil the opposition to Kossuih, in Con-
gress, has come from the Southerneis. But
we have never seen the reason fairly and
frankly stated, until we found it in late
number of the New York Weekly Mirror.
Hear the honest and outspoken editor:
"But let us not depart from the landmarks
of the pnst, nor despise the peaceful policy
of our fathers. A crusade in behalf of
"down trodden" humanity of the Old
World, must be followed or preceded by the
ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN THE New. The
slaves of the South and the seris of Ilunga-
ry, before God, have equal rights. II we
once break away from the Political code,
and accept the Moral, where shall VIC be P
Our own Republic will be rent asunder and
the Sun of Liberty in Europe will go down
in blood"
A sad catastrophe, Mr.. Mirror, to follow
upon the adoption of the Moral code i
Well then do you stick to the immoral one.
The Opal is satisfied with the moral, with
all its horrible consequences Of liberty to
the white and black.-Opai, published By IN

no small strength of mind TO persevere IN
