More than twenty years have passed suca t'iat
great champion of the slave first threw down The
gauntlet, saying, IL pW be heard; ,cM not be 81
lent" But the cause in which he then enlisted has
not set trumpcd. Time has proved that the war
fare thed c5mmcnccd is no pastme--thc enemy en-
encountered is ito insignificant one. So the battle
has progressed, the foes of Freedom have come out
of their hiding places ofchurch and state, mutipli-
ing every side, as the battle cry soun-
ded in the various parts Of our land.

Much has, indeed, been accomplished. blten
has the enemy been driven from his outposts, and
many Of bis munitions Of defence been taken add
dc5ttoycd while great numbers have been induced
to desert their former Positions and come over and
enlist under the banner of right But the strong
hold is not yet taken, aud may not yet lay down
our arms. Hold back now, and all that have
gained will be rrctrivally lost.
No, our work is not yet done. It may be. that it
is just begun Tho fctters ofthc slave still cauk in
our ears Tho groaus Of the millions of our coutry
men in cruel bondage are still waited to us on sy
cry breeze. We cannot become weary and discou-
tinue our labors or cease to call upon others to
como to our aid. Aud us managers of the UcsteR
1nti-lSidre,y Batadr we again present. this cause
before the tried friends of the slave, appealing for
their sympathy and their substantial aid. Encour-
aged by the growing interest that has been mani
f,sted in our annual Bazaar aud believing that il
has b6ch AZ iislrumcntality Of great good, We are
preparing to hold adother during Tie Mird ,ceek IN
October next.
Friends of the slavc-hatcrs Of tpptsssion--ds-
ciplcs of him who came to preach dclttratce to
them that are bound, We again call upon you. IT
depends upon yoU to say how much this effort shall
accomplish. If you arc liberal in your labors7lib-
eral in your contributions aud enter into the work
with carnestucss and zeal such us the cause de-
mauds far more gratifying will he the results, than
in any preceding year. Sympathy with the slave
has vastly de6pthtd and wiaencd among the people
Of all classes. The various agcucies that have
been in operation the last year. have unlocked the
door Of many heart aud unlooscd the stri6ss 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 variety that please the eye, adorn the
body, aud CRAFTY the TASTE that none can go away
with their PURSES full, because there was nothing
they wished to purchase.
Aud we wish that articles Of real mility, such as
must be purchased somewhere by every family, |
may prcpoudcrutc. There is hardly an article in
use but will be appropriate. 'Tis not beautiful
specimens of ladies' haudiwork, or ornaments that |
grace the parlor alone that should be here. 1et

But We need not extend this list. Every one
who pities the slave and can cooperate with us in
this effort, will find something to do or something
to give We invite your cordial aid, and trust that
the Bazaar of this year will as far exceed in ntc-
