DistOhlihuahce OF Papers.

In accordance with tho notice which has
heretofore been given by the Executive Com
mittcc, tho Publishing Agent will next week
discontinue the papers of such subscribers as
received bills some three months ago and who
have not as yet responded to the call. The
rule adopted by tho Committee is, hereafter, to
discontinue the papers Of all who aro indebted
for period Of moro than fifteen months.
Those who miss the paper next week will
understand tho cause We hope they will
speedily pay up and rcncw their Subscription
We have heard complaints that the Committee
wcrc pressing matters too hard, Wo think the
Committee guilty Of any thing else than the
forcing Of collections. They have erred, wo
think, in permitting debts to accumulate year
after year. They act wisely in preventing these
long and accumlating credits in future.

anniversary in Now York City, on tho 18th inst.
Rev. DR.. Spring presided.
Tho report doplores the diminished funds

distinguished friends, among whom were len
toned Governor NJ Dowell Of Virginia and DIR.
Alexander Of Princeton. j. II. b. Lntrobe Of
Baltimore, and Joel Parker ID. d. were tho
speakers. Tho former chnstisod tho abolition
lists, with becoming severity. for the great injury
they had done the slave and tho Free people
of color, BY their cndeavors to amalgamnte the
latter with the white population, and their at.
tcmpts to carry out other equally impracticabc
schemes And inorthodOx colonization style, he
slandored the colored population. representing
them as incapable Of elevation here. Rev. DIR.
Parker followed with oulogy and prophecy Of
she future greatness and prosperity Of Liberia.
Thus between tho two the argument for their
removal was completed.

Conservatism,

Kossuth was welcomed at tho old battle
ground OF Concord, by speech from Ralph
Waldo Emerson. In tho course Of his rcply,hc
gave tho following pa. definition of Conserva-
tism. The conservatism of this day has found
all the holo sand has its fingers in them all,
tearing away while it screams out against all ie-
formers for the great damage they are doing to
tho social wardrobe.
"Allow me, gentlemen, to make the remark,
that there is no word so much abused as the
word conservatism. I have known children, who
having got hole in their coats put their fingers
in it to make it more large. Well, they conserved
the hole. If that be conservatism, then will
not dispute that the policy Of not caring about
tho condition Of the world is conscrvatismj but
the conservation of hole am inclined to
style not conservatism, but very destructive
policy"

Trouble A5eGd.-The Southern Press has
with truth, came to tho conclusion that thcro is
no prospect of peace, or of cessation from the
nnnoyances to which slave holders are subject
cd. In tho fnality of the peace measures, it
oansce no hope of peace. 1t utters its despair
as follows,
1--WE observe that tho controversy concern
ing the imprisonment Of foIeign colored scamen
in the South has been revived by Great Britain,
and on that subject she will probably have the
cooperation of France. We sholl soon be
called on to act on the question of admitting
New Mexico, and that Of diplomatic intercourse
with st. Domingo-and there ore many coHtin-
gencies, now unforeseen that must arise and
keep this exaspeTatcd question before the coun-
try.

Another Ftt1itire Escapo.-On tho 18th inst
the United States Marshall for New York, in
company with a young Southerner, visited tho
State Prison at Sing Sing, to make arrange
meuts for the arrest of convict whose term
of service was about to expire. They claimed
him as a fugitive slave, and designed TO lny
hands upon him before he should leave the pri.
son walls. They were o little dilatory in doing
their errand, and in tho mean time the man es-
capped. After an hours examination o ftho pri-
aon, thev made known their business In reply
they received information, that tho man had
been pardoned by the Governor q day before
the expiration Of his term of confinement, and
had left the prison about the time of their en-
franco. The fugitive used his hour to good ad-
vantage and has not since been heard from.
1t seems by accounts recently received that
Dudley, tho fugitive referred to above, served
two years in the penitentiary. The charge of
larceny, on which he was imprisoned, was a
nero prctcnco, to effect his arrest and return to
slavery. And he plead guilty to tho charge to
prevent his return: preicring service in the
pcnitontiry to service on a plantation. DR..
Allen Of Maryland, who claimed the man, kept
good note of time; and just before tho cxpira-
ton Of his term OF service, wrote to Governor
Hunt and sent his son with tho documents 10
reclaim him. Tho Governor took the hint, aa
a man should, and gave poor Dudley tho benefit
Of it, by pardoning him day before tho oxpi.
ration Of his sentence. We'll done, Governor
Hunt, and success to the poor fellow who ha.
bought his liberty by two years service in the
pcnitcntiory. That is tho price of liberty in d
" free country" A pricc that thousands more
would pay, but cannot get the chance. The
country is not free enough for that yet.
The young Marylander relieves himself of his
Disappointment and wrath by stoutly threaten.
ing the Governor. lIcnr him.
"Dy tho act OF tho Governor of New York.
committed with full kno owedge of the posi.ion
of matters and the result tho owner of the slave
Dudley, alias, Snowden, has been deprived of
his property, and n convicted fclon once more
loosonod, to prey upon tho property OF the cit.
ncns of the North. Whatever remedies in tho
premises the claimant has, civil or otherwise
against any of the parties to this wrong, will bo
promptly and fearlessly enforced"
As to Dudlcy,s felony, it was his highest
honor to havo committed ii. He stole himself,
and We should like to hear to day of the COM
mission Of three millions of just such felonics
Wo would gladly bo the accomplice of each and
oil either before or after the fact. And as to his
being loose to "prey upon the property of the
citizcno Of tho NORTH" we decidedly prefer that
no should prey upon tho property of citizens,
rather than his would be. master should prey
upon tho citizens themselves.

Fugitive Slave Bill in California.


This bill has passed the Senate of Cal-
fornin by vote of II to 8. Its effect in
connexion with other legislation, which it is
intended shall accompany it, is in fact the
introduction of Slavery into California
And when il shall become q law, California
will be to all intents and purposes slave
state. The opposition were vigorous and
pertinacious in their efforts TO stave off the
vote, and amend or defeat the bill. All was
unavailing. Thus much for the northern
part of the compromise thus much for
its finality.
A correspondent of the Pittsburgh Post,
writing from California says:
"Miners are now doing tolerably well, but
with such rush as is now being made for
the "diggings," the business will soon fail to
pny The Southern Slave holders are now
bringing their slaves TO the mines There
is some half dozen of slaves on the boats
where now write. also have noticed n
letter written by a slave holder and published
in one of our papers, urging slnve holders to
rmigrate with their slaves TO California by
thousands. Now can tell Messrs. Soul,
drivers, that we ifeemen can do all the min
ing that is to be done in California, and
should they ever dare to bring their slaves
here, we shall hurry them out of the country
little faster than they ever came in.

Cost Of SLAVE Catehing.-Wo are informed by
tho Washington Correspondent of the Pitts
burgh Gazette, that the estimated deficiency in
the judiciary department for the circuits Of
Boston, New York and Pennsylvania, is
8 100000 |! This deficit has been occasionsd
by tho expenses attendent upon the capture
and return of fugitive slaves, under the law of
1850. A choice item, that, in the annual ex-
penses Of democratic Christians.

Eyitives.-Between five and six thousand
slaves have escaped to Canada within tho last
two years, says the report of the Toronto Anti
Slavery Society. And in the mean time, the
Fugitive Slave law with church and state to
back it, has not caught or returned fifty. Not
much to boast of, to besure, but yet considering
the odds arrayed against tho poor fugitive it is
something, hopeful to the slave and encourage
ing to the efforts of his friends.
