MEETINGS AT NEW BRIGHTON.

On Saturday last, we made q trip to New Bligh-
ton, at the invitation of friends, and addressed an
there on Saturday evening, and another
on Sunday afternoon. New Brighton, years ago,
was a centre of active anti-slOvery effort. But its
zeal has, of late years much declined, and now it
is characterized by a staid conservatism, which
bolts its numerous church doors against the slaves
advocates, while its priests, l%evites, and most OF
its church members pass by on the other! side,
with a GOODNESS which never permits them to
dream that the slave is their neighbor, and de-
mands a neighbours care and aid. Nevertheless,
there are true and tried friends Of the outcast in
New Brighton, who, for our missions sake, gave
us a cordial welcome, and whose courage is una.
bated, and their zeal undiminished by the chilling
Indifference which surrounds them.
The meetings were not numerously attended
though we were told quite as large as was antici
pated. New Brighton, we think, might calculate
on larger audiences on such occasions, had she
hall more attractive by its size, comfort and pleas
ant associations.
At the close of the meeting on Sunday, tn,
cases of Mr.. Sloane, of Sandusky, and of Booth
of Milwaukee, were presented, and q committe
appointed to raise funds for their relief. Thi
committee commenced their work upon the spot
raising several dollars, and will, we doubt not, re
port a very respectable sum as the result of thei
efforts. Will not other towns initiate their e2
ample?

TO SUBSCRIBERS IN ARREARS.

We are informed by the publishing agent that
in n few weeks quite a number of our subscribers
will be in arrears for one years subscription to the
Bugle. Until that time arrives, she is ready to
receive $3.50 cents for their subscription. But
after the expiration IF the year she pN require pay
ment according to The published terms, 200 per
dnnum. 1t was the intention of the Committee to
still continue prepayment as the rule, though in
consequence Of numerous remonstrances and the
difficulties of enforcing the rule without exception,
they were induced to rc-adopt the credit system
with those who chose to pay two dollars at the
end of the year. Our published terms constitute
the contract Of the publishers with subscribers
The publishers have thus far performed their par
Of the contract and they will continue to perform
it, and must insis. upon subscribers performing
theirs. We repeat, that there may be no misun
Outstanding, one dollar and fifty cents will be re
ceived for the paper until ffty-two numbers hav'
been sent, after which two dollars, will be required
of all thus delinquent. None Of our subscriber
are yet thus delinquent, but a considerable mum
Der will become so at No. 492, or in four week
from this time. Let those who are delinquent
therefore and who wish to save their half dollars
send on their subscription Immediately. There
no time to be lost.

PARKER PILLsBURY IN ENGLAND.

S. A. Steinhall, a British correspondent of tn
Liberator, writes:
"On Thursday evening, there was a meeting of
the Anti-Slavery Sewing Circle at my house. |
was not present myself, but hear that Parker Pills
bury gave much interesting information to those
present. lie has done n good work among us, and
has confirmed me in my old opinion, that nothing
is so beneficial to the cause in England as to have
an agent Of your Society among us. What would
have come of the London Conference, if Pillbury
had not been there, plainly and decidedly to have
unveiled the base conduct of the New Broad street
people, in the days gone by? His presence has
done the cause an immense amount of good, peo-
people have seen the true light, who would other
wise remained in darkness. You will see the An
ti-Slavery Advocate, with its account of the Lon
don proceedings. But the secret history still
remains to be fully written"
The same correspondent has TIE following par
agraph, not very f~attering to our national vanity
Slavery has associated the very name of our nation
with the idea of despotism. Nothing but aboli.
tionism can divorce them.
"By the way, / will just tell you Of n circum.
stance which proves how the United States are now
regarded amongst us. On Wednesday we had 8
meeting here, called by the Mayor, to address the
Queen, and petition Parliament in behalf of Polish
independence. One of the speakers alluded tC
the progress which despotism had been making
during the past year, and a voice from the body o.
the hall exclaimed, Look to Americap 1t is sac
indeed that despotism cannot be named in a public
meeting, without suggesting the idea of the Uni
ted States TO the minds of the people. Truly your
country will have to pass through many a trial be
fore it's republication can be regarded as anything
but the most fearful enemy to true freedom"

SENATOR CASS AND HIS JUSTIFICATION

General Cass, in common with other Democrats.
has, we believe, been the advocate of the implicit
obedience of Senators to the expressed instruction
of their constituents, or in case conscience or any
imperative reason prevented, resignation
was G only remaining alternative. The two
democratic Senators from Michigan, are Just
now in a predicament. They have been in
structed by the body from whom they hold their
commission, to vote for the repeal of the Nebraska
bill, and the fugitive slave acts. Here is Senator
Cass's justification for declining both obedience to
his own principles and TO the will of his c~onstitu.
ents:
When some years ago, the Legislature Of Mich.
gan instructed her Delegation to Congress to vote
for the Wilmot Provisc, | said | should resign when
called upon to act. The Legislature repealed those
instructions, consequently | did no. resign. The
Democratic party has lost the ascendancy in Mich.
igan, and these resolutions are the action of a new
party. | am now instructed to vote to deprive
American citizens in the territories of the power
to regulate the relai ms between master and ser
want, and for the repeal of the Fugitive act, which
was passed to give effect to a solemn guarantee OF
the Constitution. l shall neither obey these in
structions nor resign my seat. If q political party
whenever, and by whatever combination. it affair
