FRIEND ROBINSON We have been visited by
John II. Gurley, a colored man from Boston. Hc
held some eight meetings in this vicinity, and gave
good satisfaction. He appears to be man OF
power and eloquence. The AntiSlaycry cause in
this county is very Aattering. The small seed that
has been sown by Pillsbury and the Griffings, has
taken root, it has been watered and nursed by j.
+. Selby, until it has become a large tree, the
branches whereof extend over a large share of the
western portion Of the county, and the pro-slayery
Clergy and laymen are already trying to build
their nests in its branches Thus we live in hopes
of seeing the day come when its branches shall not
only extend over portion of county, but that
it shall extend from the mountains of snow in the
North, unto the burning paths of the Sun in the
South, and from the rivers unto the end of the
earth, until all shall become anti-slavery from the
least to the greatest.
Yours for freedom,

SLAVERY AND SLAVE LAW.

b Slavery is said to exist in Kentucky in q mild
form. The mild and patrarchal character of the
slave laws is well exhibited in tho following trans
action which occurred, it is said, few days since,
in Coyington, opposite this city.
A stakeholder in Virginia some time since per-
mitted one Of his slaves TO hire himself out in Cow
ington, on condition that he should pay his master
500 per year for his services. This was faithful
ly performed. The slave married in Covington IL
Tree woman, by whom he had several children
Atlength the master came to Cincinnati, and sent
for the slave to come to him. OF course the mo-
ment he set foot Ohio soil by the consent of his
master, he was free by Ohio Law. IIe' came and
his master contracted with him The then freeman
of Ohio) to purchase his freedom for S400. The
man consented and paid his master on the spot
$l24, and subsequently made u payment of $50
more. The man returned to COvngton to his fami-
ly, not to his former owner. A few days since the
master, rcpenting of his bargain, came and seized
him him to take him back to Virginia as a slave
lie was resisted, and the case brought before n
Kentucky court. The decision was that the man
was slave, though free by Ohio law and really n
citizen of Ohio, and entitled 10 her protection; that
the contract made with his master was NULL, be-
cause slave is incapable Of making contract
that he could not recover what he had paid towards
his freedom, because all slave earns belongs to
his master-and so by this mild patriarchal insti-
tuition, this poor man was robbed of his freedom,
his money, his family, and himself. Such is sa-
very--such is slave Law. Less than this it cannot
be-such things belong to its essence.
Dare Christians remain in any connection which
shields, which docs not condemn, such atrocious
wickedness?
Yet Southern Christians declare that the sub
ject shall not be agitated, and we fear Northern
Christians are preparing themselves to obey
Christdia Press.
Yes. Even the Christian Press prohibits infdels
to agitate it, And refuses them its cooperation in
doing. Does not the Press see that all discussion
is to be senced if its late arduous labors against
the infdel abolitonists shall prove efectual?-
The church remains in connection with this afro
ciOus wickedness, and shields it, and the persons
who are effectually agitating it must be silenced
unless their theology corresponds with that of tn,
Press. They who take this are the mos
effective practical friends of slavery whatever theil
motives or their pretensions
