Missouri COMPROMISE, the Fugitive Slave Bill, and
the infamous Nebraska Bill are all measures which
have been adopted for the purpose of securing the
perpetuity OF the Union. Querc, how many such
or similar measures will be required to attain this
important objectP And again, if obtained, where,
upon this vast continent, will be found "the land
of the free?" If the Nebraska Bill is the great
embodiment of the principles of liberty and un.-
versal justice, the "Magnu Chorta" of freedom
and human rights, regardless of color or Southern
shareholders, and pro-slavery men generally, so
jealous in advocating its passage, and at present in
striving to convince the people that "all. is right?"
And if the Nebraska Bill is intended to secure the
freedom of the soil of said territory, why were
cunning politicians SO careful to pass the Fugitive
Slave Bill prior to the enactment Of the Nebraska
outrage? Can these questions be satisfactorily
answered ? and if they can be, l have a few moro
to propose, and If they are satisfactorily answered,
l shall become a pro-slavery advocate (of course.)
But until then, l remain firm in the love Of liberty
and eternal justice. determined to advocate tho
rights of all men to the last, Union or dissolution,
it matters not. What is Union, compared with
Liberty2
Yours, in love for humanity,

LETTER FROM JOSEPH BARKER. NO. II.
BErLEY, S~taffordshire, June 9th, 1854.

BErLEY, Stafordshire, June 9th, 1854.
Ny DEAR FRIEND: l will now, according to
promise, tell you what the people of England, so
far as l have been able to know, think about the
war in which Europe is engaging.
And first, I was, on my arrival here, struck with
the fact, that almost every one asked me what
people in america thought of the war. All here
seem anxious that the Americans should think them
in the right, and should believe that they will prove
victorious. If one says, Many of the Americans
are lin favor of Russia-the ruling powers in
America are in favor of Russia they are mani
testify discouraged. If one says, The people Of
the free States arc generally in favor of Turkey
and her allies, and hope that Russia will get well
beaten, it cheers and comforts them. Ineyer be-
fore saw so clearly how much one nation is infu-
enced by the opinions and feelings of other nations
with regard to their doings and | never felt how
true it is that the refcrmers of one nation ard gov
eminent are the rcformers Of all nations and gov
ernments. Establish truth and righteousness, and
make them popular in any mighty nation, and you
strengthen truth and righteousness and weaker
falsehood and wrong in every nation. You are
} perfectly right in asking for testimonies agains'
slavery from the people of Europe. l see clearly
that when the people of Europe remain silent witt
respect to american slavery. they strengthen thu
a Shareholders; and that when they speak out agains
= it, tho- strengthen the friends of freedom Human
iry IS one. The man who freely speaks the truth
and boldly denounces wrong, blesses his whols race
, Truth and virtue work as irresistibly as electricity
and their power spreads every where and lasts TO
3 ever.
The opinions of the people here with respect t
the war are various. Some few think it a foolisl
undertaking, and foretell defeat. Many think til
Russians will beat. They say they are beating
already. They refer to the disaster at Sinope, tn
loss of the Tiger, the crossing of the Danube, tn
: fall Of Si~listria, &C., as proof. They look for fun
: Their Russian successes. They have no great hope
e of the British soldiery or of the British general.
They look for more from the French soldiery tina
n from the English. The manufacturers are begir
ming to be uneasy at the effect the war has had o
trade. The work people are troubled at the hig
v price of provisions. The middle classes do nj
like the doubling Of the income tax. The farmer
" are pleased, for their produce is high, They mab
their fortunes in time of war.
On the whole, the war is popular. Many belle,
that Russia is the foe of civilization, and that It
necessary to keep her within bounds. They regaI
the government, the laws and the religion Of En-
rs and as perfection and they cannot doubt that
war undertaken in their behalf must he successful
!, They think the English army the best and Nigh
lest in tho world, and they cannot think of i
being beaten If all the papers and telegrarhs Q

Not in the depths of the dark blue ocean,
Meath its waves in their wild connection,
Would l seek TO rest
On the faithless breast
OF the treacherous sea in her cold arms prest.
Though the coral bowers
Are gay with flowers,
That bloom in the quiet depths below;
Though pearls CLEAN bright, as the stars Of night,
On the polished walls, Of kingly halls,
Far down meath the pillows restless flow.
For stern is the soul of the dark blue ocean,
And the w~recking waves in their wild commotion
Have made a grave
OF each coral cave
For the old and the young, the fair and the brave.
The mother may wall
As the wrecking gale
losses the waves in its stormy sweep;
The wife may shrek from the rocky peak,
And maidens may tear their golden hair,
But in vain they sigh, and in vain they weep.
Then not in the depths of the dark blue ocean,
Far from the friend of my hearts devotion,
When life is past,
Would l rest at last
On the breast of the 'sea-mother'' cold and vasti
But give me a grave
Where the willows wave
And the flowers spring fresh from the dewy sod
Where the warm tears shed DER my lowly bed,
May grow more bright in the golden light
Of the king of the day--the emblem of Godl

HICKSITE QUAKERISM.
HARRIsvILLE, Harrison Co.

HARRIsvILLE, Harrison Co.
Elias Hicks called the people away from priest
craft and s~ectarian attachments, but those that
rule and disgrace his name now, have fallen back
among Orthodox prosecutors, as hundreds can tes-
tify.
To assert in theiI meetings your wish to be led
by the spirit, instead Of their discipline, is suffice
lent cause for disownment. That is speaking dis
respectful of their king.
But their days are numbered. The hand of the
Most High hath written against them upon the
wall. They have cast from them those who wished
to save them from being a "hiss and a by word
among the n%ztions," and "stoned those that wero
sent unto them" Their house will be left unto
them desolate.
That your readers may see what the religion Of
this Religious society" is, I send you a piece OF
their work, "for by their fruits ye shall know
them"
