PUBLIC MEETINGS.
TIP AMERICAN swEDEyBORgIAN PRINTING
AND PUBLISHING SOCIETY.

A meeting Of this Society was beld on Wclnesily
evening in the Seventh Baptist Church to celebrate ts
Second Anniversary. SAMUEL l.. WALDO oficiaiei IN
the Chair and addresses were made by The Rev. b. f.
B.RRETT, and tie Rev. L. BEslScK Of England. From
lie discourse Of Mr.. Barrett learned t5s' the So
cety Was in prosperous condition. Thirteen thousand
volumes had been published by them during the past
year, at cost Of g., 555. The sum Of $500 had
been expended in stereotype plates which was three
tines the amount expended last year. These facts,
be thought, were highly encouraging when 1t was
known how few were engaged in the enterprise 1t
led him to believe that it the will Of God which
sustained them and that He would continue with and
prosper the undertaking.
After bcnediction the meeting adjourned

Ifyou have contracted the terrible disease which,
when once seated in the system; will surely 60
down from generation to another, undermining
the constitution and sapping the very vital fluids
life do not trust yourself in the hands OF Quack ks,
who start up every day in city like this and fill
the papers with glaring fasehoods too well calcu-
lated to deceive the young and those not acqaint-
ed with their tricks. You cannot be too careful in
the selection of remedy in these cases.
The Fluid Extract Buchu has been pronounced
by eminent physicians the greatest remedy ever
known. 1t is medicine perfectly pleasant in its
taste, and very innocent in its action and yet so
thorough that it annhilates every particle OF rank
and poisonous virus of this dreadful disease; and,
unlike other remedies, does not dry up the disease
in the blood.
Constitutional Debility, brought on by self
abuse, most terrible disease, which has brought
thousands of the human race to untmely graves
thus blasting the brilliant hopes of parents, and
blightingi i'll the bud the glorious ambition of many
noble youth, be cured by this InfaIIibe
Remedy. And me1icine which must benefit

Truce Case.-In the course ofthe afternoon,
on the Sd July, an English steam corvette ap-
preached the harbor of Ruomo, or Rauma, a
retired place in the Abo district, and in the
Gulf of Bothnia. Six boats, manned by sea-
men, marines, and several officers, and armed
with guns, left the man of war. One Of them,
in order to deceive the vigilance ofthe watch
men of the port, thought proper to hoist .
white handkerchief, to make it appear flag
oftruce. Being Uniformed that the boats were
approaching the burgomaster Of Ruonlo I'M
mediately repaired to the shore with white
flag in his hand The English officer asked
ifthere were any soldiers in the town, and on
the mayors refusal to answer this question,
he demanded the surrender Of all the rnereh
antmen and all the goods in the harbor, to be
delivered to him. Directly afterwards the
English took to their arms, and pointing their
guns, set about removing from the port both
the ships and the goods. They even prepared
to set on fire such objects as they could not
carry of. The Russian magistrate protested
but in vain against the bad faith of the English
in making false use ofths white Gag. Blu

RESOLUTIONS.

| RssotOed, 1t has ever been Just source
OF pride with US, as Americans, that the les
son of religious equality enjoined by our Con-
stitution, was not only eradicatinc intolerans
legislation from the codes of all civilized M
tlons, but from the public mind, the spirit
| which produced them.
Resolved, That it is with the deepest
mortlfleatlon we see party arrogating to it.
SELF the exclusive title of Anericogs, attempt
ing to excite feeling of religious intolerance
as means OF infuencingand controlling our
political struggles. s7 5sa5
Resolve@, That we regard this movement
as the natural offspring Of that spirit Of. .fana-
tlclsm at the North which has SO long nur~
tured an unholy and unnatural warfare
against the institutions of the South.
Resozved, Believing that many Of. our ci-
tlzens have joined this new party--who would
shrink with horror from aiding the Northern
Abolltlonlsts--we warn them that in crus-
ade OF intolerance, the moderate and hesitat-
ing are ever the dupes and victims of those
who are ready to tranple on all human ins.
tltutlons standing in the way of their higher
law, by which they profess to be governed.
ResolUed, That ander government whero
all are free to write or speak their thoughts
on all subjects, secrecy can only be necessary
to those who are seeking to overthrow our
lnstltutions-never to those who are seekinp
to uphold or to justify them.
RESOLVED, That it is the duty Of every
good citizen to use most strenuous efforts to
defeat and destroy party which seeks by a
secret organization-th ready-made instru-
ment of the first ambitious leader. WIN shah
know K, how to WELD it to introduce into our
Government spirit Of intolerance, which
our ancestors were the first to reject.
Res0ived, We ask the cordial union of all
those who desire to secure to every citizen
Liberty OF conscience, equality Of rights and
privileges. 10 every section of eur country
the unfettered right of adopting its own ms
titutions, and full protection to them when
adopted
RESOLVED, That this meeting now elect five

the best candidate, opposed to Known Nothing-
ism, to be found in the district, regardless to
which ofthe two former parties he may here
