All IF our readers may not recolloct the fact.
Mr.. Parker, with Wendell Philips and other
gentlemen were arraigued for resistance to the
Government, in that by their speech denouncing
slavery. they melted to the attempted rescue
Of Anthony Burns. When they came to trial,
however, public sentiment had so spoken against
the contemplated outrage, that Judge Curtis fear.

merely a convenient method Of getting out OF

Massachusetts, warranted it, Judge Curtis and
prosecutor IIallet, would have found no scruple
in adopting Illegal forms to secure a conviction
had they been needed, and had such a conviction
been thought desirable by the shareholders. But
they had not courage for their undertaking, and
Mr.. Parker and his associates were dismissed with.

THE CONTENTS OF OUR PAPER.

Mn. GARRfsoN's reasons for not participating in
the course Of lectures on the subject of slavery, in
Boston, are characteristic Of his life long purpose
to have no completely with sl,ve-holiers and to be
in no wise partakcr of their guilt, and whether
his reasons may be judged satisfactory or other
wise, he has administered a telling and ever-uecd-
ed rebuke to that compllisant and ever.yielding
spirit Of the North, which induces our Judge
Kane's by way Of state comfy, to introduce sla-
very into Pennsylvania for tie convenience Of
North Caroiina-whic induces the churches and
Doctors of Divinity to extend to them the fraternal
courtcsies OF church fellowship, and our people
generally in all their social relations, to treat .hem
as honest men and courteous gentlemen, rather
than as criminals Of the most Infamous and guilty
character, The wealth and power Of the slave.
holders has hitherto most effectually shielded them
from the visitation of social as well as from moral
and political justice; and VIC think Mr.. Garrison
did not err, when he preferred this method Of
t%estifying against slavery, rather than that of the
public lecture under the circumstances proposed.

OrT AT LAsT.-The Ne,o York Tribune noticing
the manner in which the Know Nothings triumph
ed over their recent successes in that State says:
Before Election, we heard a great deal of what
sam would achieve in our State-h0w the Bible
was to he put into the Schools, and the Pope taught
to mind his eye, and the aliens convinced that
Americans would rule America. Since the victory
was won, however, we hear very little from the or
gans OF the vict"rs about Pope or Bible. or the ne
cessity OF altering the Natu alization Lay S, On
me contrary, so far as We can judge from their
language, 1t is Slavery that we have been fighting
about, and the verdict is not so much against For
eigners as against Black Republicans" why seek
to make Kansas a Free State, and thus cndanger
the harmony and perpetuity of the Onion. In
fact, Sam" while lie was shouting himself hoarse
over the pcrils of Catholic domination and priestly
supremacy among vi, has at heart been intent on
nothing but saving the Union and cat,hing : few

Us. SENAToR--Some of our Republican cotem-
porories are waxing warm in presenting the claims
of their respective favorites for election to the U.
5. Senate. Hiram Griswold and Benz. F. Wade
are the men proposed. We may perhaps give an
opinion, though it will probably not elect or de.
Feat either Of them. We are very decidedly q
wade man. Senator Wade has much more of those
elements of character which qualify him to NEE.
and defy the slareholding bullies of the Senate
than Mr.. Griowold. His impulses and purposes
may not be better or more decidedly anti-slavery.
But be has more of that indispensable material at
"ashington-stV back bone. We 60 for Wade
therefore, for so long as Ohio is to have a Senator,
any how, we don't believe she can elect one more
proof against Southern coiruption-more defiant
OF Southern threats, or more honestly \ friend of
freedom.

with one of Mr. HARRIsoNs new Spring style oil

cannot be surpassed in any place. His assort-
usnt, both of Hats and Caps, is large, and we
beieve superior to any brought to this place from

paonizing this, as well as all other manufactures

abroad for Hats. Boots and Shoes, Clothing, &C.
perfectly absurd. If the different trades in our

this market, may just as well be manufactured
hsre elsewhere. Patronize home industry, is
our motto.
