WAsmNGToS CITY, April II, los:

WAsmNGToS CRY, April IL, 1852.
GENTLEMEN:
When government or people once swcrve
from the plain principles of moral and po-
liicle rectitude, aud assume policy nt war
with humanity, the effects and consequences
reach forward to an indefinite period of time
The Florida war with its inhuman murders
aud revolving piraces is still felt in its con-
sequences by this nation, aud Government is
still engaged in carrying out policy equal
ly opposed 10 justice and 10 the best interests
of the people.
The claim of the stakeholder james C..
Watson, of Georgia, wns passed upon last
week in the House of Representatives.
You may recollect thnt in October, A. ID.
1856, General Jessup entered into n contract
with the Creek Nation of Indians who agreed
to furnish six hundred warriors, to assist
in numbering the Seminoles nnd capturing
slaves. For their services they were TO re-
ceiyc pay and ratons, and all the plunder
they might capture from The enemy.
This barbarous stipulation would probab-
ly have hcen rejected by any other tribe OF
sayagos in our country save the Creeks, who
are said to be more inhuinnn than any others.
They were fitting instruments of this slave
holding government, to be used in that slave
hunt.
The Indians were divided and attached to
different bnltalions of our own troops, and
these combined forces captured one hun
dred nnd three negroes. by an order from
tho War Department register of all slavcs
was kept showing the names of the suppos-
ed owner of each, together with the name,
uge and sex Of the slave.
There were many slaves captured and
their names and ages and sex registered, to-
geiher with the names cf their supposed
owners. In The last column of the Registry
is a note saying that two of them were said
TO be property of Col. Cad. Humphrey, and
that one other had been purchased from the
whites 10y an Indian. She was represented
ns seventy years of age, and was the only
one shown by the Registry as being n Semi
mole slave. Aud this Registry was the only
legal evidence exhibited on the subject
But on this point the sayings of individuals,
not under oath, was made to oyerrulc tho of
fetal registry.

Bishop Ilrdding.

The deccuse of this patriarch of methodism,
has called forth multitude of culogics from
press and pulpit. We object not to this publi-
cation of the virtues of the dead. 1t may per-
haps, provoke to love and good works. But for
the same reason, the errors and faults Of the
dead should also be presented, especially if they
have relation to great common interests. What
ever Bishop Hcdding may have done for Epis-
copal Mothodism, or popular piety, he has done
great disscrvce to the cause of human liberty.
His talents and influence were most zealously
and eiIcctually devoted to the defence Of the
christianity Of Shareholders, and to tho advocacy
of their fellowship by all christian churches
The True Democrat asks:
"WAs Bishop IIcdding disciple of Weslcys?
Denomnationally, he was so, We know and
he may have been SO in scntimcnt,in heart. But
In respect of some of the mightcst topics of
practical morality, we know that no two men
ever differed more widely from each other, than
did Bishop IIedding and John Wesley. For
the latter pronounced American Slavery to be
" the sum of all villainies, and Shareholders as
inadmissabie to the communion of Christians
as 'othcr pirates I" while Bishop lIcdding fell
lowshippcd, and advocated the fcllowshipping
Shareholders maintaining, that Mcthodists
might and do hold Methodsts as chattcl slaves
in perfect accordance with the golden rule of
Jesus Christ.
"In defence Of these opinions, so antipodOl to
those of Wesley, we once knew Bishop II. to
occupy several days, before many hundreds of
clcrgymen and laymen under his episcopal care.
That he was honest in his strenuous advocacy
of them, We could not, as We gazcd on his ven
cradle form, entertain doubt. And that was
the saddest thing about it all. Could VIC have
been assured of his defending such views not
without some twingcs Of conscience, the as
surancc would have been relief to us, as furn-
ish.ng new reason for hoping he would one
day abandon them. Whether or not he did
abandon them, we cannot say, and regret that
we cannot. But, if we ST. all learn that he ad-
hcrcd TO them to the last, the information will
not at all surprise us. Neither, shall it make
us deny, that Bishop Heddng may have been
as pious a man as was ever "the sainted John
Wesley" How should itP The Rev. John
Newton, generally deemed so remarkable for
his piety, is said to have engaged in the African
Slave-trade as the best thing he could do for
the salvation of Negro souls.
"But while we may not deny, that Bishop
Holding was as honest and as pious az his
"brother Wesley" we will say, that the latter's
teachings have, in our judgment, dono the
world more good, than it will ever have derived
from the formers honesty and picty, or from
the picty and honesty of all the saints in tho
calendar who may have held it to be Christ
like to mako mince-meat or merchandise Of
men,"
1t seems to US that the picty and honesty that
can, in these days, "make mincc-meat or mer-
chandise of men" is not worth this disclaimer
Of the Democrat. Honest il they were, it had

SLAVE CASE PosTPoNED.-In the U. S. Dis
triot Court, on the l4th inst, the case of Oliver
ct al. va. Cauliman ct al was opened by ii. NJ.
Watts for the plaintiffs. The motive in enter
tanning the slaves, he said, was to be judged of
from the fact of defendants socreting them, and
their being carried away at night in defendants
wagon, covered up with straw. The evidence,
he said, would be that the thirteen slaves be-
longed to the plaintiffs, and constituted two
families, majority of whom were children !;
that they were secreted in the fodder barn of
Cauffman and when traced there by the agent
of the owners, he admitted they were there,
and showed them to the agents on the night
they were clandestinely carried away in Cauf-
mans wagon, by carrying lantern in the barn;
that he knew they were slaves, as we'll as to
whom they belonged, and where they came
from, having been informed of these matters ;
that they were taken from Cauffman's to the
barn of his brother-in-law, Stephen Weakly,
and thence no trace could be had of them
After the case had progressed thus far, it was
discovered that plaintiffs counsel had omitted
some of the parties in their declaration, which
had already been amended, and on objections
being made to further amendments, by Messrs.
Wm. b. Read and d. III. Brown, the Jurors
were discharged and the cause continued
When it will again be brought to trial, wo do
not know, but presume the plaintiffs do not
mean to give it up so.'-Pa. Freeman.
