K%IDNAPPERS DEFEATED.

MORE KIDNAPPING ATTENPTED.-0n the l0tlr
inst, a warrant was issued by U. S. Commissioners
Woodbury. of Boston for the arrest of John Jack
son, an alleged fugitive slave, who, it is said, c.
capped from his owner, Capt. Fox, of virginin.
The Vigilance Committee got wind of the pro-
ceedings and started Jackson off Immediately for
Canada.
We learn from the Boston Telegraph that Jack
son was claimed by Captain Fox, commander OF d
coasting vessel, which plies between Virginia ana
Georgia, and jackson was employed as a hand on
board. jackson had been in Boston scme six or
eight weeks.
The Telegraph of January 18th says:
On Tuesday evening, as jackson was returning
homewards from his work, he was accosted by n
white man, who, from the description given, an
swers very we'll for n noted slave-catcher of this
city, and asked if his name was not Jackson. lie
replied that it was none of his business what his
name was. The interrogation then asked jackson
where he lived, to which he evasively replied, 'in
Cambridgeport." The parties then separated.
Yesterday morning, early as six o'clock, the in
terrogator, answering in appearance to the same
slave catcher, was found at the Cambridge bridge,
anxiously awaiting entrance into the city of some
one whom he doubtless thought resided on the
other side of the river. Though he remained there
till somewhat late in the forenoon, the man he
was looking for did not appear in that direction.
A posse of officers, in company with the person re-
c~ognized rs Capt. Fox, went to a Embarrassing
saloon, about noon, at the North end, where it was
thought jackson might be, and represented that
they had papers" for him. The proprietor, how
ever, was in n state of happy ignorance.
Yesterday forenoon, a not was left at the place
of business Of n prominent colored citizen, saving
that il he knew a man named John jackson, he
should advise him to place himself at once in n
situation of safety. as the hounds were in town

QUITE LIxELY.-A correspondent writing from
Washington, to the N. Y. Herald, says it is rumor-
ed that the real object of the Kinney expedition
is not the malariOus swamp lands of the Mosquito
coast, but the beautiful island of Cuba 1.-THE plan,
l learn, is to ship SOM two or three thousand men,
armed to the teeth, in a couple of swift steamers, to
start publicly for San Juan but privately to steer
for Cuba, and slip in at some unprotected point and
commence the liberation Of the island. Gen. Hen
derson and Gen Quitman, of Mississippi, in view of
this enterprise, arc reported as being able to APP
ply funds to help it on to the extent of over one
million of dollars. The President, in his official
capacity, is, of course, ign GRANT of the real drift of
this Kinney expedition but presume that the
Kitchen Cabinet are in secret."- Gin. Gaz.

DEMOCRATS OF OHIO.

The old line pro-slavery Democracy of Ohio
held their State Convention at Columbus on the
8th inst, They renominated their old candidates
re-adopted the Baltimore Platform, and endorsed
Franklin Pierce and his administration They
also resolved that Slavery was an evil and they
would oppose it and it's extension by all power
incident to the federal compact. So that on the
whole their resolutions are very much of a hodge
podge sort of affair. Opposing all agitation of the
Slavery question as q cardinal point of their politi-
cal principles and then opposing Slavery. We
put on record the resolutions touching this -ques-
ton:
Resolved, That the Democracy of Ohio are at
tached to the Union of the States, and to the Con-
stitution, in which are expressed the principles and
the compromises upon the faith of which the
Union was originally established, and by a strict
adherence to which alone that Union can be pre-
served and they denOunce, as dangerous to the
peace and liberties of the country, all attempts
to organize political parties with reference to geo.
graphical or sectional districts.
Resolved, That this convention, in behalf of the
democracy of Ohio hereby affirm that the platform
of resolutions which assembled at Baltimore in
June. 1852, as a clear and distinct declaration of
our political principles.
Resolved, That the people of Ohio, now as they
have always done, look upon slavery as an evil, and
unfavOrable to the development of the spirit and
practical benefits of free institutions; and that,
entertaining these sentiments, they will at all
times feel it to be their duty to use all power clear
" given by the terms of the national COMPACT, to
prevent its increase, to mitigate, and finally to
eradicate the evil but be it further
Resolved, That the democracy of Ohio do at the
same time fully recognize the doctrine held by the
fathers of the Republic, and still maintained by
the democratic party in all the States, that to each
State belongs the right to adopt ard modify its
own municipal laws, to regulate its own internal
affairs, to hold and maintain an equal an independ-
emit sovereignty with each and every State, and
that upon these rights the national legislature can
neither l~egislate nor encroach.

THE ERA

THE LIBERAToR commenced a new volume, its
twentyJfM, with the present year. Its editor is as
fresh and undaunted as when he commenced its
publication a quarter of a century ago. And no
wonder, for the principles it advocates are self
sustaining and and perennial. Never, while the
human voice exists, will they lose their interest or
their value.
Mr.. Garrison has eminently endeavored to en-
body these principles in his life and labors. Hence
though tie slave is still unemancipated, his hope
wanes not, nor does his courage falter. Of his
course he says:
"Our editorial warfare against slavery has been
long and terrible, but not in vain; for, though
there are q million slaves more than when we be-
gan our labours, and though the domains cf sla-
very have been greatly extended and though the
Slave Power il still f~earfully dominant. vet the
whole land has been aroused from its deathiy slum-
Der, the friends of the slave have been multiplied
like the drops of morning dew, the cause of impair
tial freedom has had a mi 5hty growth, a death
wound has been given to the slave system.
We enter upon our new volume with undimin-
ished zeal, courage and hope-warmJy profering
to all our friends and patrons the loving salutations
and wishes of the New Year, thanking them for
their generous cooperation, grateful for all the
private assistance which has been rendered us,
and relying on God to the end"
The Changed. Y. of the Anti-Slavery Stand
ard, after speaking of the crowded houses at the
Boston course of A. S. Lectures this winter
Gives the following notice of an effect to get up a
like course ten years ago. He says:
81 well remembe the course of lectures we tried
to have land did,, ten years ago, in Amory Hall.
The room would hold, perhaps, three hundred
people, and the price of admission was a York
Shilling. We gave them good entertain ent,
quite as good speakers as any of this years ora
tors; but, on no evening did we more than half
fill the hail. The idea of a crowded course of
Anti Slavery Lectures would have then seemed to
us as remote a possibility as the Abolition of Sla-
very itself. This change has come along in tie
course of human events" and it is indicative of
other changes yet to come"
We are glad of any encouraging facts, and hope
Boston will get so far along bye and bye as to be
willing not to send her citizens into Slavery, and
not to reward kidnappers with themayorality. Bos
ton is looked upon as a sort Of Anti Slave there,
mometer for the nation, and TO see the mercury
rise is always highly satisfactory.

censures the gentleman who introduced the bill,
on the ground that the colored people had not ask

A simple girl endeavors to recommend

A good girl always respects herself,
