More than twenty years have passed since that
great champion of the slave first threw down the
gauntlet, saying, 81 rW be heard icW not be si-
lent" But the cause in whchh he theu enlisted has
not yet triumped. Time has proved that the war
fare then commenced is no pastimc-thc enemy en-
encountered is no insignificant one. So the battle
has progressed the foes of Freedom have come out
Of their hiding places ofchurch aud state, multiple
ing on every side, as the battle cry soun-
dcd in the various parts Of our land.
"On right, on left, above, below;
'Sprang up at onco the lurking foe.
Much has, indeed, been accomplished Often
has the enemy been driven from his ouposts, and
many of his munitions of defence bceu taken and
dcstroyed while great numbers have been induced
to desert their former positions, and come over aud
enlist under the banner of right. But the strong
hold is not yet taken and we may not yet lay down
our arms Hold back now aud all that VIC have
gained will be irretryably lost.
No, our work is not yet done. 1t may Lc that it
s Just begun The fcttcrs ofthe slave still clauk in
our ears The groaus of the millions of Our coutry-
men in cruel bondage still waited to us on cv-
cry breeze. We cannot become weary and dscou-
tinue our labors, or cease to call upon others to
come to our aid. And AS managers of the JVestern
anti, ,Slare,y Ba.dar we again present this cause
bcfort tht tried friends of the slave appealing for
their sympathy aud their substantial aid. Eucour-
aged by the growing interest that has been mani
tested in our annual Bazaar, aud believing that it
has been an nstrumcutality Of great good, we are
preparing 10 hold arother during the MHd ccck il,
october next
Friends Of thc slavc-latcrs of oppressiou-dis-
ciplcs of him who came to preach deliycrancc to
them that arc bound, We ogain call upon you. II
depends upon you to say how nuch this effort shall
accomplish. If you are liberal in your abors-lib-
cral in your contributions and enter into the work
with an carnestncss and zeal such us the cause de-
mands, far gratifying will be the results, than
in any preceding year. Sympathy with the slave
has vastly docpeucd and wdcued among the people
of all classes. The various agencies that have
been in operation the last year, have unlocked the
door of many a heart and uulooscd the strings Of
many purse, and we may reasonably expect Il
largely increased attendance at our Bazaar. We
must, then, be able to present display of the
beautiful and the useful, such as will make full
proof of this sympathy. Our tables must contain
so large II variety that please the eye, adorn the
body, and crafty the taste, that none go away
with their purses full, because there was nothing
they wished to purchase.
And we wish that articles of real utility, such as
must be purchased somewhere by every family,
may preponderate. There is hardly an article in
, use but will be appropriate. IT'S not beautiful
t specimens of ladies' haudiwOrk, or ornaments that
grace the parlor, alone, that should be here. Let
the mechanic send in of the work of his hands,
All kinds of household utensils find ready SALE
Let farmers send of the products of their farms
Fruits, butter cheese and various kinds of veget-
; abes should be in our hall. Especially shall we
need cream, preserves, &C., for our Refreshment
table, Boquets of flowers are always saleablc.-
Let the Manufacturer and Grocer send us such
things as needed for tho family storeclosct,-
soap, candles, tea, coffee, sugar spices, &c. Con
fectioners must not forget that we dispose of many
! articles in their line And to the dry goods mer
/ chants we look for the raw material that we are
t by our own labor, to convert iuto childreus and
J, other clothing
But we need not extend this list Every one
who pities the slave and can cooperate with us IN
1 this effort, will find something to do or something
to give We invite your cordial aid, and trust thai
: : tho Bazaar of this year will as far exceed in iute
rest and profit the last, the last did any Of the
preceding.
This Bazaar will, as the others have been, be
o conducted without any Objectionable feature, anC
only fair price be charged for the goods The
