SALEM, ONO, JULY 20, 1853.
Executive COMMITTEE meets August 7.
To the Friends Of the Western Anti.Slavery
Society.

Some weeks since, your Executive Commit
tee resolved to enlarge The Anti Slavery Bugle
to the size of the Boston Libcrator. Their ar
rangemcnts for this purpose are now so far
completed, that they hope to give It to the
readers in enlarged form aud neo type, ,ciih tie
f'a issue in August.
They now ask your renewed cooperation and
aid, in extending its circulation. Tl.is aid,
judging from past experience. we expect to re-
ceive and If it comes in as literally as it should,
we can give you the paper ct its old price Of ono
dollar aud y6jty cents, # paid in adeanee.
Ir the great battle for freedom in the West,
the Bugle stands alone in its position. The
ultra principles it advocates, place 1t beyond the
reach Of compromise, and in its position, it can
have no reasonable hope of popularity. except
with its immediate friends and sympRthizers.--
it can therefore afford to be plain spoken and
faithful for the slave, administering rebukc or
aid as occasion may require. 1t has nothing
to gain by concession to religious sects or po-
litical parties, for it stands independent Of ei-
ther. We have in the region over which the
Bugle circulates, a large number of political
anti slavery papers, Of no ordinary excellence,
and conducted with marked ability, and yet we
think there is indispensable necessity for just
such paper as the Bugle. 1t therefore has a
claim upon the support Of all earnest friends
Of emancipation. 1t cannot be spared from the
field, nor car It afford to drag out an existence
of difficulty and doubt, with nigsardly sup
port. Its external appearance, as woll as its
character, should recommend the cause It advo-
Gates. In both these particulars, the committee
hope to make it worthy of support, and that
support they expect to receive. They prefer q
prepaid subscription, to u dollar and half in
donation, to its support. They do not desire it
sustained as a charity. They think it worth
all it costs you as individuals, to say nothing
of its influence upon the cause.
If any of you are in arrears, please send on
your money. Don't wait till the end of the
year for BILL The money has been earned
it is needed don't delay. If your subscription
is just now out renew il, by an advance pay
ment, and send us at least, one more name with
your own.
TERMs-$I,5O in advance. $500 il pay
ment is delayed.
We shall hereafter most rigid;y insist upon
the additional price, in case Of failure to pay in
advance. 1t is indispensablc,t to remunerate the
Committee for increased labor, and inevitable
loss.

DisuniOn.

How will dissolution OF the Union affect
slavcryi Let South Carolnian answer. now
that there are no cowardly northerners to
frighten, and no necessity for moulding craven
dough faces into southern political shape. Let
this South Carolinian answer Horace Mann,
Charles Sumner, and their admirers, who de-
light to burn incense upon the altar of this
Union, which according to South Carolina,
sanc;ifics and will ever protect the internal in
stitution.
On the 4th of July, J. s. Preston delivered
an Grafton at Charleston, S. c., before "The
he extolled the Union in such spirit stirring
style, that a distinguished lawyer, Richard
Yeadon, felt constrained to rise and render
thanks to the orator for the good service done.
Speaking of Mr. Preston, he said:
"I thank him, deeply thank him, for the
manly sentiment uttered in reference to the
prolonged duration and probable perpetcation
of our political Union-'I have no fears Of
abolition In the whole scope of his masterly
and unrivalled performance, gemmed as it was
with the treasures of intellect and fancy. en-
riched as it was with a wise and true philoso-
ply, there was nothing that more strongly
commanded my sympathy than that sentiment.
1t has only given tongue to what has long been
my own thought. I, too, haze no fears Of abo-
lition-it is a bugbear. that should alarm no
one, and, above all, it should never induce or
seduee US to forfeit or surrender tho richest po-
litical inheritance ever bequeathed by patriot
ancestry to their posterity.
"In the Union, we of the South, are strong
enough to defend the institution Of slavery
the inrinoi5ie strength of the Union to defend
1t against all assaults of any kind from abroad
We have only to he true to ourselves. and
while members of the Union, the institution is
impregnablo against assault of any kind-cov'
cred with an impervious shield, and having al
its bulwark at once the constitution Of the I'm
ion and our own right arms"
Is it true, that the Union is the +" "invineibie
strength Of slayeryi Is it an "impervious shiel'
and bulwark"i Let every man answer in tn
light of its past history and its present relations
and We cannot see how he can say that MI
Yeadon is not right. Thus much for the secu
, rity the Union affords from external force.
And here is his view Of saving slavery ftor
, that overthrow with which tho moral indigns
, tim of the world now threatens 1t. Tho relig

COMING oS.-A bookseller in Richmond,
Vn., has published 'an Essay OH Culcarious
Manures." The notice of which, in the Nat
ional Intelligencer, is mngnloquently headed
in large caps, " Book publishing in Virginia."
So Vrginia is book publishing Slate. That
is encouraging. They will perhaps print
some spelling books by aud bye, and soma Of
the thousands in that State will learn to
read, who are now altogether unskilled in
this very necessary accomplishment. Ger
iainly we may expect this, for book publish
ing can never prosper without readers. Wo
just now remember some rather singular sta
tistics on this subject, in Mr.. Wise's old dis
trct. And Tint, we dare say, is not IN
isolated case. Success to book publishing
in Virginia, we say.

as there il, will. the Union continuing, do
that potent sentiment of the civilized world,
which Mr.. Yesdon justly fears. The Union
has done and is doing puch in this direction.
But this cannot continue forever. The North,
instead Of always protecting the South, will be
eventually blasted by the worlds indignation,
for its wicked union with the oppressor. New
ertheless, it is true, as Mr.. Yeadon ofHrms, in
the following paragraph, that whatever of good
there is in the North, will, by the union, bo
brought to sanctify slavery and save Il from that
" isolation" in infamy which would secure its
certain destruction.--
"But, were the Southern States to dissolve
the Union and form themselves into q separate
and distinct confederacy, we should be isoiated,
as the only slave.holding republic on the face of
the earth, and become a target for the whole
civilized world, including our northern brethren,
on our border, absolved from constitutional
obligations and converted into aliens. to level
their batteries at, and our position would be to
say the least, one ofdoubtful strength and dura-
bility-and the institution of slavery would be
in danger Of tottcring to its fall. Neither war
nor force of any kind, would bo necessary to
effect this end but the potent engine of public
opinion-thc public sentiment of tho civilized
world, brought to bear upon us and against us,
in every possible shape, might by its constant
and wearing action on opinion and morbid con-
science, ultimately undermine the institution
among ourselves, and sow within our own bo-
som the seeds Of its decay and destruction.
"But, remaining within the Union, VIC are
absolutely impregnable on this point. II true
to ourselves, we have no vulnerable point-we,
or rather the border southern States, may loose
a few hundreds, or few thousands, of fugitive
slaves (soon, if the truth were known, anxious
to return from the tender mcrcies of freesoilism
and abolitionism, to the comfort and luxuries of
southern slavery; but otherwise, and within,
ourselves, we are moro than safe from frantic
machiratiors, either American or foreign,
against the institution--in defence of which we
are ready at any moment, to pledge our lives,
our fortunes, and our sacred honor. Why,
sir, were the abolitionis,s themselves to march
in arms among us, proclaiming liberty to the
objects Of their false and devilish philanthropy,
our attached and happy slaves would them
selves join in putting them to rout and discom-
future, instead of embracing their ruinou, and
deadly aid or alliance"

Table Moving.


MIR. Farady, in the Athencum, a British
Journal, thinks he has satisfactorily asccrtaincd
the cause Of table moving. lie invented an
apparatus which indicated the slightest piessure
Of the hands of the table move in horizontal
direction, and this placed before the eyes, always
successfully prevented the movement of the
table, though it could be moved without diff
Guilty when this apparatus was not attached
Mr.. Farady conceded that the operators were
intelligent and honest, but thinks them deceived
in regard to the direction Of the pressure -
which they suppose, if exerted at all, to be
downward. and not horizontal. Previous to
the use of this apparatus, Mr.. Farady had dem.
onstratcd, as he supposed, that the movement
was not made by electrical or magnetical agency.
lie found that large bundles of various sub.
stances, conductors and nonconductcrs, in pro-
mscuous layers, placed between the table and
the hands of the operator, presented no obstacle
to their success. While the movement of the
index invariably prevented it, however earnest
ly desired or persevreingly sought If this be all
so, it does not yet account for the rappings and
various other marvellous phenomena. Such as
the well attested facts, of the movement of
physical objects without tho touch of the hands.
But that, perhaps, all in good time.

JAr Co. INp.. July lIth. 1s6a

jar Co.. IND, July llth, 1853.
DEAR MARIus: 1t seems to me IL Horace
Mann is correct in asserting the anti. slavery
character of the Constitution, that slaves only
have to be made acquainted with the fact, to
enable them to cease running to the British
dominions for protection. Why not stay in tho
free states
But Horace Mann knows that the Constitu-
ton gives to the slave holder certain privileges
which enable him to pursue and capture his
slave, in any state or territory into which he
may have fed. Hence we SEQ slaves running
away, not only into the free states, but going
the whole figure to Canada. Such was tho
case a short time ago. Some seven or eight
passed through here on their way to Canada,
to seek protection under Queen Victoria. leav-
ing the land of the whip and chain behind
Our people say they have right to 20 to Cuba.
that is, migrate there or any place else; and
suppose that slaves have also the right Of mi-
grating from the land of slavery to a land Of
freedom. 1t is certainly the duty of christisn
to aid and assist those who fec from the
southern house of bondage; who are deter
mlneu 10 DC men ana women, ana cease 70 DO
clsssed longer with the brutes.
Thank heaven, the day is coming, when the
slave will be delivered from the calling chain
of his servitude, and will walk erect in all tho
beauty Of his manhood. Humanity will tri-
umph in despite of all obstacles. Never was
there time when our people were more dis 3
pose to hear the gospel of anti-slavery preach
cd, than now. We are mpking some arrange
ments to cultivate our field, but not ns extern
sively as it should be. We need some more
efficient laborCrs than we have; some like
james Walker, or the Grifings, who would
deal out truth which would burn up the chaff
that is in the minds of the people, and set them
to thinking Alright.
Our Anniversary is coming on, and as we
are deeply interested in it, aud its action, somo
one will probably attend it from this neighbor-
hood, this year.
remain thy friend in the cause of Human
ity. J. Y. HOOVER.
