peoples of the right to say anything whatever
concerning the hottest interests of nations. SO
long as the North American Union numbers
In its confederation, States where men are pub
licv sold to the highest bidder, and where, for
the sake of miserable greed children are torn
from the arms Of their mothers and wives from
the hearts of their husbands and sold into the
hands of some rich planter-so long as in these
States the whip is the means of governing a
whole unhappy and despised brother race so
long should the glorious Union refrain from
all ideas of Intervention, from all republican
propaganda But let us beware of too vehe-
monty accusing the North American States.
They are, after all, but the scions of our Euro
pean civilization The exploitation of man by
man, the degradation of human beings into
chattels. the peryersion of religion TO the mean
est selfish ends-as. for instance, by using it to
binder the humane settlement Of the slavery
question-all these evils has the young Repub-
lie beyond the ocean received from Europe
The Americans have simply developed them
under the pressure Of circumstances, and with
the go.aheadiness which, in every sphere, is
their characteristic, into the last degree of op-
preston, into absolute slavery.

called its cruelties, or evil incidents; but when
its advocates undertake boldly to deny the ex-
istence of these incidents, or attempt lnsdlous'
ly to explain them away, Truth requires that
they should be confronted, and their hctions
exposed We do this, not because we are un-
friendly to the Southern People-our relation
ship with them is too intimate to allow this
not because we undervalue their many noble
traits of character, underrate their difficulties,
or would defame them before the world-but
because the system which they advocate

suppose that this is the real desire of the Jour

SHALL NEW YORK BE A SLAVE MARTl

Week before last man named Lennon, of
Virginia, being in New York city, with eight
slaves, was brought before Judge Payne on
writ of hdbeds corpus and required to show
cause for their detention. According to
statement in the New York Journal of Com
meree he and his wife, with their eight slaves,
went to New York, for the purpose of embark
ing for Texas
That Journal with its accustomed loyalty to
slaveholding interests, endeavored to excite
sympathy for the holder of the slaves. He was
very worthy mamie had been evidently
struggling with poverty-his wife was a gen.
tlewoman-she loved her savcs-she was in
dignant at their sezure-she appealed to them
most eloquently, and they wept at the idea of
being torn by the cruel Abolitonists from such
mistress-the worthy couple had never
dreamed that what by industry they had &C
ouired in one State could be taken from them
in another--poor creatures! if these eight
slaves should be taken from them, they would
lose their all-and Mr.. Lennon cried!
Such was the mournful representation of the
| Journal of Commerce. 1t seemed to think that
of the ten persons concerned, only two were
entitled to any consideration and it evidently
| forgot, in the excess of its tenderness for Mr..
and Mrs. Lennon, that the People of New
York had Constitution to maintain, and
rights to be protected
The case was q very plain one. Mr.. Lem
mon knew that Slavery cannot exist in New
York-that slaves carried into a free State by
the Constitution of the United States guards
the right of the master only to fugitive slaves
In full view of these facts, he carried his slaves
to New York he acted upon his own respon
sibility; he knew the consequences. What
right had he to defy the laws of the State and
expect immunityl
The decision Of the Court has not yet been
rendered, but Of course it will be- against the
claimant Judge Payne must look to the Con
stitution Of his State, and not to the Higher
Law" sympathies Of pro.savery press. The
colored persons are not eSdP'ng slaves but
slaves brought by their master into free State
whose Constitution and laws prohibit Slavery
Judge Payne cannot establish what the Con
sttution iorbids
If Mr., Lennon were ignorant Of the law
he is to be pited for having invested his money
in property which is recognised as such
only in some Of the States of this Union, anC
in few semi-civilized countries
But il would be a still harder case were tn,
laws Of New York violated the sentiments o
her citizens outraged, and the rights of egh
persons sacrificed, to enable Mr.. Lennon t,
live upon the unpaid labor Of his fellow
beings
Suppose the tender sensibilties of the Jour
nal Of Commerce were so far consulted, tina
the Constitution of the State We're set aside
