Tee! OF this book rather of the one lofty angelic
character it presents; for the book itself is but
clear, coioriess medium through which we behold

She here nowhere comes between the reader and

object, the erection OF hospital for the needy and
heinfrm in her native village, she patiently wears
out the best years of her youth and cheertuly of.

calls the stories of Scripture and in continuous in

Aid TO Fugitive Slaves.

A public meeting was held at the Philo
Presbyterian (colored) Church in Prince
street, last evening, in behalf of the "New
York (Ngilnncc) Committee" with view
to raise funds to assist fugitive slaves or TO
rescue them from their state Of servitudr.
1t was addressed by Rev. Henry Ward
Beechcr. His audience, with few eXccp-
tons, was made up of colorcd people. lie
deemed it unwse for any person at the North
TO Interfere politically IN Southern Slavery
but would so interfere, il it was probable
that anything could he accomplished in that
way. Universal emancipation would sOoA-
est he arrived at 10y moral means. lie tTus.
ted the competition of free labor would sup
plant that of the slave, and that fax would
become n substitute for cotton. Among otl-
or Influences tending TO the same result, was
the extensive leakage in the great slave res.
ervOir ut the South. Thinkers were running
about IN every direction cndeayoring to patch
up the leaks, but no sooner was one stopped
lltan break would occur somewhere else.
A great convention of tinkers was held Mt
Washington, who cssnycd TO make these
streams run up hill, hut the speaker thought
that engineering in this direction had been
attended with such Success as TO discourage
further effort.
With reference to the law, whose enact
ncnt is here referred to, he said it was can
lquiiOus one, aud he would not obey it,
The only difference between him aud the
community at large was, that they said they
,roud obey it, but did not.
We learn from a member of the " "Nigi-
lance Committee" that cases are constantly
occurring where assistance is afforded to
tiigtiycs and that not far from $4,000 II year
il expended in this manner. There was
large number of slaves in Canada and else
where, who have bccn thus aided. The

dor there were no appropriations for Dls-

called upon one of Our Members OF Congress
and poured out his complaint. The Con-

that unless hc immediately paid II, lac (ihe

We presume the Attorney agnln presented

Defining Positions.

When men are greedy to define their po-
stions upon great questions where the plain
est common sense princip pies are involved,
they afford evidence of a conscious inconsist-
ency and conflict between theory and pr1c-
lice, between profession and conduct. DIR.

define his position, in regard to slavery. aud
in doing so, by way of an help meet for him,
has called in Albert Barnes, to define his

POlygamy,

"An oppressed citizen" Of Georgia, Inns
petliOned the Legislature TO make polyg0my
lawul.-BOsioR Post.
Why not? The citizens of Georgia have
been claiming to follow the patrinrchs in one
OF their practices, aud why should they not
copy their example in others. The "pecu-
liar institution" is represented hy Georgia
planters aud Northern ID. DIS, ms tran
script of the institutions of Abraham, Isaac
and jacob. The argument from the Bible
for polygnmy il n great deal stronger than
for slavery. Look at it. Abraham, the
friend Of God and father of the faithful, wus
not0riously polygamist at the very time
God held personal communion with him,
gave him the promises, aud blessed him.
Ills conduct in this is in no instance censured
aud the seed OF his unlawful wife is blessed
of God aud made u great nation. The same
is irue of Jacob, David and Solomon. In
the New Testament, although Christ and the
Apostles came in contact with poygnmy al
every turn, they no where expressly con.
denim it. On the contrary, Paul enjoins upon
Bishops to have but one wife, which clearly
implies, according TO some of the missions
ries of the American Board, that other men
may lawfully have more than one.
Substitute the word slavery for polygHml
in the foregoing sentences, and you have the
current argument for the divinity Of the for.
mcr institution, which is recognized as yalit
| by all the large churches in this country, nul
! by the whole batch oflowor law Drs. Of Di
yinity. But the argument is better for poly
gany than for slavery, because there is nc
manner OF doubt that the palriarchs Abra
| ham and Jacob and David and Solomon
were poIygamist; but j! is an immense mis-
take TO affirm that they were Shareholders.
The truth is, we have always thought th'
southern patriarchs were living below thei
privileges. They are following the example
of the father of the faithful alar off Oh
their principles of Interpretation, the civl
laws of their States prohibit as crinina
what is no where expressly forbidden in lh'
word of God. Such laws are therefore shec
usurpaton. Perhaps the action oflhe Geor
gia legislature on the petition of tile "oppres

Slavery iu California.

The San Francisco Herald of the 10Th
Nov, in the course of long article depre-
eating excited aud angry discussion on the
subject of introducing slavery, mukes the
following interesting statement;
South. Press.
alt may stnrtle those who happen to be
nervous on this subject to be informed that
slavery now exists, and has always existed,
in California since the adoption of the con-
stitution. In the mining counties and even
in san Francisco, there are many slaves, and
yet there is no manifest arrangement OF pub
lie morals in consequence, nor do the people
generally seem to give themselves much
anxiety on the subject. There is no attempt
10 incitc the slaves to run away, and they
themselves, catching the healthy tone of
public sentiment, never entertain thought
Of such thing. We know some of them
whose earnings amount to as much as the
pay of post captain in the navy, and who
can purchase their freedom at any time, but
are perfectly content with their present con-
diion. These facts 90 to prove that it will
bo difficult, without perseverng agitation, TO
generate bgotry in the minds of the people
of California OH the slavery question, or to
convert il into an element of discord; and
such perscvering agitation we hope never
to see"

The Lash T!

We were astonished as we'll as mortified
in reading the report of Mr.. Secretary OF
War, Graham, TO find that he virtually re-
commends the return to the bloody aud bar
barous practice of flogging in the United
States Navy. II is trine humiliating thnta
man occupying high position in the Gov
ernment of tho "Model Republic" should
have heart sufficiently cold aud cruel, and
u head sufficiently weak aud Unbalanced as
10 deliberately put forth such n proposition.
The lash, ihggot, the thumb screw, and tho
whole internal catalogue of instruments OF
torture have had their day. The cat-o-nine-
tails will never ngnin lacerate the back of n
man and mn American citizen on board OF n
National ship Of this country. Such nu-
tionul scandal as the log of the Independence
on her last cruise to the Pacific will not again
shock aud disgust the feelings of our people.
The number and merciless brutality OF the
ilogging scenes Of that cruise will afford, for
all time, an example sufficiently powerful TO
deter our Legislators from again allowing
the dandies aud squirts who figure so large
~ on the Quarter Deck from enjoying the
cheap luxury OF ordering poor Jack 10 he
"triccd up and soundly ifogged."
Mr. Graham should coniine recommends

nestle arrangements. But in the name oi
