DraytOn aud SayreS.

The papers say that il is expected that the
President will hive sufficient influence will,
the Government Of Great Britain TO procure
the releuse of the Irish Patriots. We wish
we could also indulge the expectation tint
her Majesty could have equal influence with
this government IN relation TO the heroes
now languishing in Washington Jail.
But let us not wait for foreign interycn-
ton. Let the citizens of this country de-
mand their reeuse, whatever reception their
efforts mny meet. We have now disiin-
guished examples for interference. Let us
not be slow TO initiate them. We commend
to our citizens the following, from the Anti
Slavery Standard:
These unfortunate men, it should not be
forgotten, are still suffering imprisonment at
Washington, for doing 10 more for some of
their own countrynen than the Government
OF the United States did for Kossuth when
it sent the Steamer Mississippi TO receive
him, and bring him, with his fellow -iugiives
TO this country. Had Captain Long Of that
steamer been seized ut some port on the
Mediterranean aud hurried into the Austrian
,iominions TO bo imprisoned, there would
have been no delay, on the part of the Exec
tive at Washington, in using the power en-
trusted to him tor that officers rclense aud
Congress would not have hesituted TO con-
firm any act of the President, even TO the
declaration of War, If necessary. We need
not expect, however, that the Executive
clemency will be exercised on behalf of the
Captain aud Mate of the Schooner Pearl, un-
less il is asked, and perhaps not then. But
is it not worth while to nsk IL? Petitions
for their release, il numerously signed,
might, at least, shorten the term of their i'm
prisoutnent, il their prayer were not imnIedi-
utely answered. The present is a favorable
for such IN effort, and we rejoice 10
hear that beginning has been made.
MIR. l.. Wilbur, OF North Easton, WASH
ingion Co., sends us petition which is in
circulation in his neighborhood, aud suggests
tllat similar oues he started in other places.
lie particularly comments the subject TO our
lecturing agents, and we commend the sng-
geslion to their attention, MS well rs to that
OF other persons. The petition is us follows:
TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
Whereas Daniel Drayton and Edward
Sayres have been for some years incarcera-
ted in prison at the Capital of this nation
for attempting TO aid u number of slaves in
escaping from their claimants; the under
signed inhabitants of Washington County,
New York, would respectfully, but earnestly,
entreat for the exercise of Executive elem
cncy on their behalf, that by pardon they
may be restored to liberty.

ChFiStiania Prisoners.

LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. %.
The Bills preferred against the Chrisliana
prisoners for murder aud riot, were returned
this morning by the Grand Jury no bills, and
all tie prisoners discharged by John l..
Thomson.
Thus we hope has terminated the perse-
cution of these unfortunate men. A perse-
cuiion disgracciul to the country and the
ngc. Their homes ansackcd-their proper
" destroyed-their families terrorstricken
and scattered by armed ruffians, without au-
ihorily of law. Then by authority Of the
Federal Government, subjected to four
months Imprisonment, aud trial for their
lives on a charge which their accuscrs could
bring no shadow of evidence TO slistuin.-
Then handed over TO the State of Peunsylva-
MIA, with the injunction TO slny them as MUIR
derers, though knowing, as full well they
must, thar there wus no evidence that would
at all authorize their conviction. lfihe pro
scouting officers of the U. S. Government, be
not utterly shameless aud inhuman, they vii
not further wrong them and oppress the na
ton by additional expense, for trial with
out evidence on the charge Of misdemeanor
But 10 sustain slaveholding, this governmen
is ready for any enorinity--and we need no
be surprised at any iniquiiy it may frame
judicially or by Legislation.

Letter from Joseph Treat.

NELSON, January goth, 1852.
DEAR MAmus Yesterday, when saw you
in Salem, meant to write you short account
of what had been doing for three or four days,
but did not have time, Friday evening, l ad.
dressed Lyccum at the Centre of Ednburg.
The appointment was given out the night be-
fore at Temperance Meeting, whcrcupon the
Presiding Elder of the Methodist Conference
arose and said that was Comcouter, and h.
wouldn't go to hear me. and il other folks wan
ted to, they might lie lost friends by his ILL.,
berality and probably had more hearers, than
If he had kept silence. OF course, there was
enough Comeoutcrisni in the discourse, to iusti-
fy the apprehension of the weak brother.
Saturday night, l spoke at the centre Of
Rootstown in the new Town House. L, being
the first time there had ever been speaking in
it, had the pleasure of preaching the Dcdica-
Hon sermon-consecrating the building-not to
God, who did not need it, and who would no.
need it, and who would not own any moro pro-
pcrty aftcrward than bcfore-but to Man, and
christening it, Humanitys Hall. Ny theme
was Man, (alikc embracing Manhood, Woman
hood, and the Racc,) as compared with, and
superior to, institutions, systems, governments,
unions, constitutions, lives, laws, scots, chur-
chcs, crccts, rites, houses days. books, religion,
and even God himself that is the God of this
nation. "Man first, and every thing else after
wards, said l. Or, Every thing for man,
and man for God" think all who attended,
admitted that the meeting ended in tho confu-
sion of the Hunker politicians and ministers
who were present, not all of whom were viii.
ling, at first that should have the last word
Sunday, l spoke in the Comeouter School
house in the Southeast corner of the town; in
the forenoon on Reform, Reforms and Reform
ers, and in the afternoon on the New Type OF
Christianity, alias, Infdelity. Had number
down from the centre to hear me, some of them
as conscientious members of the churches there,
probably as there are in the place. In the eve
ming spoke again at Edinburg on Radicalis,n,
with some specimens of it. OF course, l was
led to speak of Sunday, Slavery, War, wom-
ans Rights, Land Reform, the Bible, &c., &c.,
throughout, much which the ears of the people
there were unused to hear. Our glorious friends
the Heiyhtons, helped the cause along at all the
meetings, in the exercise of tho divine gift of
song. Long live they to sing for the slave, and
we to speak and write for him, but as for tho
slave himself may he not live longl

LADIES ASSOCIATION.

The following, from the Pittsburgh Ca
zette, gives evidence of the beginning Of
these contributions of muskets aud cannon
balls.
KossUTH AT HARRISBURG, &C.
Governor Kossuth, during his stay at iiar-
risbug, had the qualification of seeing hIs'
carried into execution, his plan of"Assocla-
tions of Friends OF Hungary for The cOllec-
ton of material nid," which ure devised upon
plan which will enable him to reach the
people. On Friday last, private nssocla-
ton of Friends of Hungary, under the presi-
dency ofIlenry Buehler, Esq, presented him
with an address, and paid over their cOntrl-
buttons. Tie same day, Governor kossuih
received an address from n Ladys Associa-
tion of Friends of Hungary, to which he re
piled in appropriate terms.
The same evening, ut u mass meeting IN
the Town Hall, General Ayers in the chair,
the "County Association OF Friends of Hun
gary, for Daulphn County" wus iormed-F.
Z. Carson, Esq, Treasurer. =.
An association of "Friends of Hungary"
each member contributing material aid in
the form of a mllsket, was formed on Sutur-
day morning, under the auspices OF Louis
Blanche, Esq, who has kindly lent his
premises to warehouse the contributions for
the present.
An association of "Friends of Hungary"
for Union county, also presented their con-
tribtitiOns.
As Governor Kossuth wns proceeding TO
Hollidnysburg by the cars, he was addressed
ut Lewistown, 10y un "A1sociation OF Friends
oflIungaIy," formed the proceeding eveing.
At the Mountain House, the contributions
of three associations were reviewed, viz;
from County Association of Friends OF
Hungary for Blair County," from an "Asso-
citation OF friends of Hungary" formed in
Bairsville, and from Lady's Association,
from BrattlebOro, Vermont.
Amongst the contributions nt the Harris
burg Banquet, General $. ID. Karns gave n
cheek for himself and his brigade, Jnmes
Onslow for himself aud his brother, and

Irish EXileS.

The President with the advice of the Ca
binet has refused to interfere officially, in be.
hnliof the Irish Exles. "Such interference"
he says, "might be repused, aud the govern
ment have no power TO resent or complain" /"
A more weighty reason, no doubt he might
have added, was the probability that the ia
vor would be reciprocated. 1t is the height
ofabsurdiiy to suppose that this government
will ever do anything in good earnest, for the
cause of freedom. Any such effort, would
he blow at her own policy-lhe chief end
of which, is the support of slavery.

We find an excellent article on this sub
ject in the editorial colums of llarper's Mag
aZine. The editor suys; :" he Press is
mans boosted means for cnligllteniug the
world The Pulpit is Heavens ordinance,
and sad will il he for the Church, aud sadder
still for the State, when any other power on
earth challenges u superiority, either in rank
or influence"
The Pulpit is indeed Heavens ordinance,
and the Press is certainly strong aud filth
lul auxiliary; in not ouly cnllghtening, but
converting the world. Deprive the Church
of the Use of the Press, aud one of her most
powerful weapons is shivered 10 ntOms-onc
of her strong bulwarks demolished. Hand
in hand, then, let the Pulpit and the Press
go forth in the great work of the Worlds
redemption from both spiritual aud political
evil-in the master cnierprle Of mau's tem-
poral and spiritual salvation and pnsied he
the tongue that sneers ut the importance of
these great instruments for the good of man.
Aud yet there are those, aud we have
them in our midst, who proclaim "lhc Pull
pit is den of thieves" aud "ihc Press n
compact of liars !" aud men are found to sit
night after night aud drink in the moral poi
son from their lips.
We are thankful their charges are false.
While there are examples OF those who dis
grace the Pulpit, and the Press, we think
with the editor of 'llarper," the Clergy can
occupy no inferior plac0-tlIat they nre ever
"lonnd cOntendtng in the fields of theology,
philosophy, litcratuae, aud science; Or
wherever there is an enemy TO subdue, or a
victory to he won for Christ.
| How true is it TINT the Clergy nrc ever
found foremost in every work which PROM
ses good TO man and 50 earnestly do they
engage in this work, that in some instances
they go beyond true zeal. But il is an error
of the head, aud not the heart In the main
you will find them sound on questions OF
progress and the true interests Of mankind
here aud hereafter; aud ms infinitely super
ior TO their traducers, as light is above dark
ness; us noble generous heart devotion to
Truth, is above the low tricky sophistries o
infdel Gnrrisoninnism.
The Press, too, though not without il!
faults, and in some instances They are mnny
is by no means as bad as many think. We
are proud 10 believe that the common asser
ton that you cannot depend upon it for The
truth, is false aud without foundation, rs I
general thing. There is not class of per
sons in society who think more of their hon
or as publishers of the Truth, than the News
paper editors. That they are nj times i'm
posed upon, and publish incorrect news, il
true hut il is not done with their knowl
edge. We will venture TO say there is more
truth with the Press, than with those whC
traduce its conductors.
Let us then stand by the Pulpit and tn
Press, and while tho one shall probe lh'
moSl sores of the Nations, the other shal
scatter the "leaves which are for their heal
ing"

Convention in CINCINNATI.

We would direct the attention of the
friends Of The slave in Ohio aud lndiana, to
the call we publish for Convention in Gin
clnnaui, in April next. The Convention held
there last year, was most interesting in its
character aud happy in its results. We trust
the coming one may surpuss it in both these
particulars. Our Cincinnati friends, we are
assured will spare no efforts TO make the
Convention all that is desirable. The notice
thus early given, will enable those desirous
of attending, TO make all needful arrange
ments.

the promotion Of the general welfare, is n
