riories in question, is TO close il ypon the free
labor and free laborrrs of the Northern States
and of the Old World.
Srrenh, Because the purpose of the South
to legislate slavery into Nebraska and Kan
sas is apparent from the fact, that by a sec
tiona' vote OF the Senate, contrary TO former
precedent, the government of thrse Terrific
ries is confined and secured TO resident citi-
Gems, thereby ex,ludli unnaiuralz d toreign-
ers fr' IN all partIci patton in decidirg the
question of slavery or no slavery, and secur-
lug the victory 10 the slavc-holding emigrants
who may pour into these Territories from the
adjoining 81 ave States
R'SOtUed, Fha' we diSclam all right on the
part OF the General Government TO interfere
wrh slavery in the States in which it now
exists, nd as citizens OF a free State we dis
claim all desire or Intention OF doing any,
thing I" disturb the institution of slavery in
any Of The States or in the District u Column
bia, and will not be parties to any agitation
having for It's object tn. disturbance OF the
adjustments of the question heretofore effect
go, so long a. our Southern neigbbors shall
themselves respect these adjust ments-but
wien slavery becomes the ag2fessur, by at
tempting to repeal restriction upon its ex-
tension which fas ieeD viewed as solemn
compact for the list thirty -four years, aud
when an effort is made to make slavery the
general rule and freedom the exception, we
would be untrue to ourselves, recreant to
freedom and unworthy of lis blessin 5 d d we
not resist the attempt, and protest against
the encroachment.
Resolved, That the proceedings OF this
meeting be published in the city papers, and
the Secretary forward copy TO the Repre-
sentative of this isirict ia Congress.

W We hope our neig' Dor will release
the Democracy from the responsibility of
anything Mr.. DENLY says as well as writ S.
Ii he dom, there will be pretty muss in

man is responsible himself, there ore We
don't think the Democracy should bear the
responsibility of his irresponsible acts. IL
should plead the "bihy act" and have guar.

glad the editor has al last got something con-

thing better with 1t than he has done with the
Nebraska ques ion. AZ present he has got
tie two So oddly jumbled together, that there
is strong suspicion he don't know what he
is talking about.
OF The question is, whetl er the FIVE men
who voted against the resolutions opposing
the Nebraska bill, at the meeting ON Thus
dsy night, combine the principa lntei ligence
OF this community, or the five hundred who
voled the contrary way. There is no Doubt
the five had all the sense and understanding
on their part, as they seemed to feel agra
waited that the five hundred wouldn't agre,.
with them.
Come no here, all friends or equal

mouth yesterday. Ii was the remarkable

The Synod Was opened with a good plain,
practical sermon OH the duties Of ministers

| Wilson, of Tennessee, last Moderator. Rev.
l.. Mcdonald was chosen his successor, and
acted as Moderator at this meeting. Tie
usual amount of routine business was trans
acted {; and in addition a number of new
and important measures were set on foot.
An excellent sermon on family instruction
wis preached by Rev. David Prcssly, OF
Starkvillc, Miss, by appointment. A copy
was requested for publication in the Tee
scope. The missionary sermon was not
preached because of the abse"ce of the ap-
pointec, Rev. r. S. Lee, of Kentucky. The
appointment Of MIR. Lee was continued for
next year. p.
| A letter was received from committee
appointed by the General A. r. P. Synodof

Sick and in Prison.
DY ALICE CAREY.

BY ALICE CAREY.
Wildly falls the night around me,
Chains cannot break have bound me,
Spirits unrebuked, undr,vcn
From before me darken Heaven;
Creeds bewilder, and the saying
Cnfelt prayers, makes need Of praying.
In this bitter anguish lying,
Only thou wilt hear my crying
Thou, whose hands wash white the erring
AS the wool is at the shearing;
Not with dulcimer or psalter,
But with tears, seek thy altar.
Feet that trod the mount so weary,
Eyes that pitying looked on Mary,
Hands that brought the Fathers blessing,
Heads of little children pressing,
Voice that said, Behold my mother
Lo! l seek thee and none other.
Look! Osweetest eyes of pity
Out of Zion, glorious city.
Speak, y voice Of mercy, swcetly,
Hide me, hands of love, completely;
Sick, in prison, lying lonely,
Ye can lift me up, We only.
In my hot brow soothe the aching
In my sad heart stay the breaking;
On my lips the murmur trembling,
Change to praises undissrmbling;
Make me wise rs the evnngels
Clothe me with the wings of angels.
Power, that made the few loaves many.
Power, that blessed the wine ut Cana,
Power, that said to Lazarus. wakcn!"
Leave, Q leave me not forsakcn!
Sick and hungry, and in prison,
Save me, Crucitied and risen.
