American Slavery AS might have been ex-

and practical, as well as theoretieal-in its dis
section Of the subject, in all its bearings. twas
listened to with undivided attention throughout,
and drew forth frequent and enthusiastic plaudts
from his audience. What pity it is that
we have not more men of the Theodore Parker
stamp among US, but it is vastly greater pity
that there should be so many who are insensble
to the important truths which he portrays.

the legal fraternity: I'VE have instructed
our Reporter to be particular in getting the
names of the counsel Who mag detend these

true, for it by no means follows that, if a
lawyer is retained to defend person accused
of loose conduct, that he is defending the ex-
istence and permanence of houses of i'll fame
That question does not enter at all into his
consideration; it is a thing apart and his
action cannot be so misconstrued except by
such as would scruple at nothing to carry
their point. But even granting that lawyer
did defend such an establishment; is it not
public good to test the merit Of the ordi
nance? Does not every false attempt at
legislation excite ridicule and make matters
worse than before? And does not the blind
inflict an absolute evil upon society? Is it
not a public calamity to have the statute
book crowded with farcical and nonsenscal
ordinances that can never be legally enforc
ed? If so, is it not public benefit to have
their inoperativeness shown up, antecedent
to expungng them from the statutes? Real
lv the writer of the menace must have con-
ceived himself the "Jupiter Tonons" of the
press whose mere expression of dislike was
to awe the entire legal profession into tame
submission. Must a female, because through
mans lust, and remorseless villainy, she has
already lost all that can make her life desira-
bic, be treated worse than the brute, and
made the victim Of every scurvy fellows ac
cusation without being permitted even the
common privilege of defence. We have a
wise statute which prohibits cruelty to dumb
brutes, and the absurd animal finds an ad
vocate of his rights in our courts against his
monster master; but this laundering, anathe-
denouncing scribbler would refuse
to poor, lost, unfortunate, friendess woman
the protection offered to brute beasts. The
milk of human kindness never warmed his
heart; his bearly nourishment was not from
woman drawn; he must have fed from the
cauldron Of Macbeth's witches, his course is
so thoroughly Ishmaelitisn. Menaces to be
needed must be accompanied by facts, reason
and intelligence, without which they are
thinking cymbals and sounding brasses," in
dicative Of holowness and folly.
