MR. LETTER.

We have but few remarks to make in reply to
Mr.. Barker, inasmuch as the points under discus
sion are mostly questions of fact Of which none Of
the readers Of the Buglo are in a position to judge
except those who were present at the meeting
in the Town Hall, and all these can Judge Of those
facts rs well as ourselves.
Mr.. Barker says he has "never undertaken to
defend the principles and attitude of the Republi-
can Party. except so Ear as they are anti slavery
and reformatory." lie did, however, undertake,
though we think, with very poor success, to defend
the party as il EXISTS, and Mr.. Foster, in our opin-
ion, very clearly established the TACT that the party,
acting under the constitution of the United States
and bound by all its compromises to put down
slave instructions, defend the Shareholders in the
possession of their slaves against any foreign pow
er seeking to liberatc them, and moreover roton,teeI-
ing not to interfere with slavery in the states, (all
according to the cypress declaration Of its leaders,
we say Mr.. Foster very clearly proved that such a
party must Of necessity he a pro-slavery party.
And here was just the issue, which, we repeat it,
Mr.. Barker .Eaicd to meet, For his mode of en-
countcring these difficulties we refer the reader to
his letter, which is substantially a repetition of his
arguments during the discussion which called forth
the observations in last weeks Bugle.
Mr.. Foster never has attacked political abolition,
ism; on the contrary, he openly favors the employ
ment Of political means for the overthrow of slave
ny. And this fact lie stated distinctly at the meet
ing in the Town Hall.
One remark more and VIC have done. We re-
gard Mr.. Bankers declaration that Mr.. Foster
''tried in vain to embarass him, by his interrupt
TONS" and that failing in this, he ''called for an
adjournment" to extricate himself from the diff
culties of his position, as, under all the circum'
stances, peculiarly unhandsome. Mr.. Foster has
constantly courted pertinent and orderly Interrupt
tim for the purpose of questioning, a privilege
which Mr.. Barker knows perfectly well was freely
used on the ~occaeion referred to-. And we will
conclude these remarks by informing our readers
who we're not present at the discussion between
these two gentlemen, that Mr.. Foster only made
the proposal to adjourn at a late hour, when the
audience were maLifes:ly becoming impatient tC
retire, and furthermore, thathe accompanied it will
the cypress request that Mr.. B.. should be present a
the meeting to be held one week from that time
and then and there resume the discussion, Mr.
Barker to have the privilege of continuing his ar
gument in the opening speech. l..

And then the religion of all these countries, re-
gardcd as a whole, is fully as ruinous to the true
interests of man MS are the governments. lndeed,
the religion, like the laws, is but The expression
of the popular will. 1t veers and changes with
the public sentiment, rs readily as do the weather
cocks at the tops 0! its spires. Let a teacher Of
new truths arise, as well in NewLuryport as Naz-
aroth, and our modern Pharisces, like those Of old,
exclaim, " We know that God spake unto Moses
but as for this fellow, we know not whence he is"
The Reverend writers Of the New York lndepen-
dent are glad to keep faith and fellowship with
the popular church, by splitting their viper-venom
at the few who dare rebuke it's impiety and inf
deity.
All these are but examples of the fatally COM
promising spirit and policy which govern the pO-
litical and religious associations that have assumed
and undertaken the temporal and spiritual saliva
ton of mankind. In the midst of them our little
enterprise. has risen, bright and beautiful, and al
most as neodful as the star of Bethlehem. Based
upon principles immutable and eternal, it has
hitherto defed all the assaults of its many and
mighty foes. And because based upon principle,
it must stand. Fire cannot consume it. nor floods
drown. Famine cannot destroy it, nor sword de-
YOUR. 1t is as immortal as God, and can no more
die than God can die. Garnered up in it, are the
desires and hopes of the ancient prophets, apostles
and martyrs. 1t embodies that eternal truth on
which hangs the redemption of the race. If Jesus
came to proclaim liberty to the captive, and sealed
his mission with his blood, tits for us to see that
liberty be given to the captive, that the blood be
not shed in vain, nor SO divine a doctrine thrown
away. How sublime, then, as well as solemn,
does our mission appearl 1t was in this compre
hensive view of it, that l expressed a fear that
we hardly feel its dignity and importance. We
admire the heroism of the Hebrew prophets, and
glory in the faith and frmness of the early apostles
and yet not one human gift or grace did they
possess which should not be ours. Our work il
the same. Our nstrumentalities are the same
Whatever we ourselves may be, however unfaith
full or unworthy, the principles and doctrines, az
well as the ends and objects of our enterprise
could not be more sacred nor divine. The light
nings of Sinai might have Autographed them, OF
the blood of Calvary stereotyped them. Still they
would be the same. Well does it become us t.
hnoc ~omse1oes, before we assume so fearful a re
sp0nsibility as the proclaiming of this gospel in
wolves, Surely, we might pray earnestly
go Thou my voice inspire,
Who touched lsaiah's lips with hallowed fire."
Yours, dear Marius, and all your readers,

ALLIANCE AWAKE.

The friends of freedom in Alliance, the other
day, not having the fear of any of the judicial
tribe of Kane or the fate of Passmorc Williamson
before their eyes, resolved to rescue "A colored girl
from the custody of her supposed Master. The
Ledger Of the Doth ult., gives the following state
ment of the case
SLAVE ExcITEMENT.-Quito an excitement was
created at the Station on Wednesday morning last,
occasioned by the discovery that a stakeholder with
an article of property in his possession in the form
of a colored girl, was there awaiting the departure
of the Cleveland train, having arrived on the
5 o'clock train from Pittsburgh.
Several of our citizens at once repaired to the
Station, whom Mr.. S. n. WooD, of the Kansas
Tribune, who happened to be present, volunteered
to inform tie girl that she was free, having bUen
brought into q free State by her master but as
she did not seem inclined Ia take advantage of this
opportunity to assert her freedom, (alleging that
she did not wish to stop here) Mr.. Wood went on
the train to Cleveland hoping to effect n separation
of the human chattel from her reputed owner at
that place. We learn, however, that before arriv-
ing at Cleveland her master exhibited her free pa
pers, and declared she was at liberty to go If she
choose.-This, Of course, put a stop to further
proceedings.
1t evinces a healthy state of public sentiment
that shareholders, are invariably subject to these
little annoyances whenever they they travel north
ward with their peculiar kind Of property!
-
JOHN .MITcuELL.-The Journal Of Commerce
says that John Mitchell, though in a slave State
holds no slaves and the valley in which he is ioca
ted among the Eastern Mountains Of Tennessee
does not contain a single negro.
1t must be tantalizing to the poor fellow to liv
in the midst Of slave holding Tennessee and no
possess that plantation of slaves for which he s
long sighed.

BLACK NURSES FOR NORFOLK.

A Savannah paper says; 'Wo happened to bel n the
Mayors Office tie morning adispatch was received
from Norfolk announcing that many Of their citi-
2cns were dying for want of attention, SO great
was the number of the sick, and the panic among
the we'll. Orders had promptly been sent out into
the city for the required aid, and while we were
present, n number of colored women reported
themselves to the Mayor as ready for the work.
Some Of these nurses were slaves, hired Of their
owners, and having no interest in their own labor
and one might reasonably suppose they aban-
doned their comfortable homes for n laborious and
p%erilous soiourn in a plaguc-stricken city, with re-
~luotance, if not under compulsion. Such was not
the fact. They were volunteers in this mission of
mercy, entered cheorfully upon it, and seemed to
feel as deep an interest and sniieitudc FOR the suf
fering whites of Norfolk as did their more onlight-
ened and Christian masters.
The masters may be more enlightened but we
see no evidence that they are moro Christian than
these selfsacri6cing slaves, that is if by Christians
ty anything humane is meant. lIew glaring the
outrage upon goodness and justice, that this ma
ton should join to enslave a race capable Of such
selfsacrifcing devotion to suffering humanity
Aye more to their worst enemies aud most intol-
cradle oppressors.
The FALL OF SEvAsTopoL.-After a years siege,
the southern part of Seyastopol is at length in the
hands of the Allies. The assault which resulted
in their triumph was made on the 9Th of Septem-
Der. Thirty thousand men persisted in the conflict
on that day.
An ERRoR.-Last week, in noticing the new
name assumed by the Progressive Friends, we
stated it to be "Friends Of Human Progression. p
This is an error. Friends Of Human Progress
is their present style.
