Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1854-12-23
NUMBER OF SLAVE oWNERs.

Since our last issue, we have learned tha. . sup
Elementary census publication has recently been
issued at Washington, and that the table We pub
lished last week is compiled therefrom. As ve
stated, the number of Shareholders il not given in
the large census report published by Mr.. De Bow.
Speaking of the classification of tho slave own.
ers,-the American nobility,-as made in the table.
the Tribune says:
1T will be seen that there is a striking analogy
between it and the aristocracy Of the other great
slaveholding nation of the world, Russia, though
Russian aristocracy consists Of fourteen classes.
while our Shareholders are divided into eleven only.
The lowest class of mobiles in Russia is distinguish
ed by not being liable to corporal ~fogging, while
the lowest class of mobiles in the Model Republic,
superior to the Russian in its privileges, has for it's
distinction the right to fog one niger, that being
the number of his fellow countrymen belonging to
each member of this class"
The superior orders have of course the demo-
cratic privilege::of aogging greater numbers, even
up to one thousand.
How THEY VoTED.-IIow some of tho Kansas
co)onists labor to prevent the introduction of slavery
into that territory, may be inferred from a state
ment of q correspondent of the New York Tribune.
He says that DR.. Charles Robinson, who at the
was a Garrisonian Abolitionist, voted for the Ad-
ministration candidate, as did also many others Of
the emigrants. Well, perhaps that is not to be
wondered Mt. 1t is in entire harmony with the oath
that every voter had to take, as q prerequisite
qualification to that act, viz, to support the prin-
ciples of the last winters Kansas-Nebraska bill.
We enormously stated last week, that Flenniksn
was the regular Anti-Nebraska candidate. lie
was what was called the Administration candidate,
though supported, as we see above, by many pro.
fessedly anti'slavery men.
GEORGE THOMPSON, the eloquent English cham
pion of freedom, has purchased, and rs editor, will
henceforth conduct the EMPIRE, a London weekly
newspaper. Says the Liberator, whose editor has
a most intimate personal acquaintance with Mr.. r.,
We have no doubt that Mr., Thompson will fur
nish his patrons with a sheet of surprising ability
and interest; that he will excel in the use of his
pen, as he has already done as o public orator with
his voice that he will be prompt, as hitherto, to
) give to the anti-slavery cause, both at home and
abroad, his hearty support that he will not seek
to conform, but to reform-to please the strong and
the af1uent, but to subserve the cause of the poor
and oppressed. May all that is liberal and pro.
gressive in England stand by him, strengthen his
hands, and subscribe torhs paper! We hope there
are some on this side of the Atlantic. who may feel
able and DESTROYS to become subscribers for the
Empire, rs a token of personal regard for Mr.,
Thompson, and a grateful appreciation Of his anti
slavery labors in the United States"
KossUTH made a great speech in England on
the Goth ult. lie condemns the English policy Of
the war-tells the English that they are fighting
for Austria, and that their means Of success will
be the restoration of the subjugated Nationalities
of Europe, Poland and Hungary especially,
The BLOODY WAR.-The newspapers OF this
r week are filled with the details of another great
butchery at Sevastapol. On the 5th uls, was
fought the bloody battle of Inkermsn, where pro-
badly from eight to ten thousand men were slaugh'
tered, besides a multitude Of wounded.
