GEORGE s. PARK.

. The late editor of the parkville .Lumltary, has
left Missouri, and gone to Illinois to reside. The
st. Louis Intelligenccr says of him:
"Mr. Park established the Luminary at Park
vile without any very strong political atinltles,
but in q very little time he was pushed into the
support OF Benton and Bentonism, and this, we
apprehend, may be regarded as the beginning OF
his troubles. In supporting Benton IN his paper,
the people were led to suspect that he was not
Sound on the goose question" but his anteSe'
dents are all against this supposition. He is the
owner of slaves-has grown up in Missouri, ana
acquired wealth, and we should not suppose from
his appearance and character that he would have
mado himself obnoxious to any class of people"
Nevertheless, he was expelled from the State,
because he dared gently to oppose the outragcs OF
Missourians against Northern emigrants into Kan
sas. Slavery is right in its policy. 1t only lives
by the destruction of every vestige of freedom.
The unrepealable law is, no union Jetreen sldrery
and freedom. Compromises, compacts and conJti-
tutions never created such a Union, and never can.
Since writing the above, We have met with two
letters which Mr.. Park has written to the Intelli-
gencer, in which he claims that his expulsion and
the recent outrages in Kansas were planned and
executed by the SelfDefcnsive Association. This,
he says, is o secret society, which acts with unan-
unity, has numerous lodges in Missouri, and has
sent missionries for their establishment into other
slave States. The success of the Texan mission
has been far from encouraging, while Arkansas mas
responded more cordially to the effort. Mr.. Parks
% offence, in his estimation seems to have been, first,
Bentonism, and second, the advocacy of the opin-
ion tina. the entcrprising eastern cmigrants to
Kansas would necessarily bring business prosper
ity TO their near neigbbors of Western Missouri.
lie also condemned in general terms, the invasion
of Kansas at tho late election. For these offences,
his property has been destroyed, his press.silenced,
his character yillifcd, and he cxiled from the
State.

FROM CuBA.-A correspondent of the Tribune
under date of May 23d, writes:
The old adage says at is an i'll wind that blows
nobody good" and | am happy to have it in my
power to inform you that the breaking up of the
fllibustering expedition against this Island will
probably secure the enfranchisemeIt Of the unfor-
tunate slaves Of Cuba.
know not if it be sheer desperation that has
driven the Crooles to this resolution, but | do
know from the conversation of many of them that
they are resolved upon it, prorided the independence
Of the Island shall be guaranteed to them. 1t is
generally understood that England long since made
a similar offer to the Cu1aus. If such be the case,
AMI | see no reason to doubt it, then the slaves Of
Cuba will be set free at a much earlier period
than we should have dared previously to hope for.
Yet let not this be received MS q fixed fact,p but
only as one of the probabilities that may arise out
passing events.

saying was 20 gocd ieonan, C rirttoas tr9aqa is

Tie deceased both suffered very much and very

Two passengers in this train were last night arres-

ago there was no small excitement at Lawrence, in
Kansas Territory. in consequence of an attempt to
reclaim a fugitive slave. The people of Lawrence
refused to give her up, without due proof and the
authority of a Commissioner warrant. After
due investigation, however, they became satisfied
themselves that the whole affair was a plot of the
slaveholders, in which the woman proved herself

charge, and | will Try to get them to let me keep
him till he can prove himself free, which | have
but little doubt is so. If he is taken to Jail, his
expenses will be great before he gets ont. SO if
his friends come after him, they must be prepared,
as he is left here without eny money, or very lit
tie. He wishes you also to inform his brother Of
it and Thomas Mumford, and by so doing, you will
much obligc John Bell.

often done by the people Of Ohio.
Yours, &C.,

Two negro gitls wer6 brought il? before the ST.
preme Court at Columbus, last Monday morning,
on d writ of habedS corpus. to inquire into the
cause oe their detention, by their master, at the
American Hotel. 1t seems that their master, n
Frencbman from New Orleans, was en- route for
Europe, and had procured passports for that pur-
pose. The girls expressed a desire to go along
with their master, and the counsel stated that as
they were not going back into slavery, it would be
AS well to put no restraint on their wish. The
Judge hoped that all parties would acquiesce in
this decision, and go the parties were discharged.

SALEM UNION SCHOOL.

The annual meeting for the election Of two
Union School Directors, took place on Wednesday
last; and resulted in the election of Saml Chess
man and j. C. Winery
An impression seems to have been made on the
minds of some of our citizens, that Messrs. Chess
man and Winery are the enemies Of the Union
School, and were elected for the purpose Of de-
%stroying it, or limiting its operations so as to make
it worse than useless. The vote, it is claimed, was
essentially a vote against the Union School system.
All this is q mistake. The issue was not, directly
or indirectly, upon this question. The candidates
elected on Wednesday, we're understood by a very
large majority of those who voted for them-and
correctly so-to be in favor Of continuing the
Union School, and conducting it in the manner best
suited to the wants of the community.
Let the question of abolishing or sustaining our
Union School come fairly before the people on its
own merits and l am well satisfied the school would
be triumphantly sustained. Be this as it may,
however, no such question was before the commu
nifty at the recent election. The people have
placed two new directors on the board, who. / am
satisfied, will soon prove themselves, the friends of
a good school; and who uniting with their associ-
ates in the responsible station to which they have
been chosen, will do their utmost to sustain our
Union School, and make it, so far rs practicable,
in every particular deserving the confidence and
support of the friends OF education. j. B.

Emigration agents are stationed at all the impor-
