bulwark Of liberty and property in the North
and West Of Europe for ages. The germ OF
the re resentative system sprang from
the municipal franchise Of the boroughs. Al
the revival Of letters, the merchant princes of
Florence received the fugitive arts Of Greece
into their palaces. The spirit Of CONNER
cial adventure produced that movement in
the fifteenth century, which carried Colum-
bus TO America, and Vasoodi Cana around
the Cape Of Good Hope. The deep founda-
tions OF the modern system Of international
law were laid in the interests and rights Of
commerce, and the necessity OF protecting
them.

PENNSYLVANIA YEARLY MEETING OF PROGRESS
SIVE FRIENDS.

Upon the undersigned devolves the pleasant duty
of inviting friends of Truth, Purity and Progress,
without distinction of sect or name or nation, to
attend the Fourth Annual.Convocation of Progress
sive Friends, to be held in the Westinghouse al
Longwood, between Hamor!onand KennettSquare)
Chester Co., Pa, commencing on First day, the
eighteenth of Fifth month, 1856, at 10 o'clock, A
NJ, and continuing as long as circumstances may
seem to require-probably for three days,
TIE Progressive Friends have no creed as the
basis Of association. Their object is not to build
up a Sect, armed with ecclesiastical power, and en-.
'dowed with authority to define the boundaries OF
thought and restrain the heedom Of speech and
action, but to unite persons of every shade of theo-
logical opinion, in ONE SPIRIT OF LOVE, to "dQ good
unto all men as they have opportunity" to Guilt
vate in themselves whatsoever is pure, generous,
and ennobling; to worship God in the service of
Humanity; to investigate those question: Of indi-
yidual and social duty, which the experiences Of.
daily life and the conflict of sects, parties, classes,
and nationalities, are perpetually evolving; to
the primordial rights of man, and plead
the cause of the poor, the ignorant, the degraded,
and the oppressed; to testify against those systems
Of popular wiokedness which derive their support
from a false Church and a corrupt Government; TO
the cause Of 'ppro and indebted religion"

A FACT FOR JoURNALIsTs.-The Philadelphia
Saturday Erening Post took the side of Passmure
Williamson in his contest with Judge Kane, and
lost, by 80 doing, over 10000 of its Southern sub
scribers. We predict that the Post, before it is
one year older, will have two new subscribers for
every one it lost. The article in which the Post
announces the falling off in its Southern list is ad-
miraJle in tone and sentiment.--LDe Illustrated.
The Post has hitherto been miserably conserva-
tive-we should say cowardly, on this Slavery
question. If its loss of 10000 subscribers shall
make its "tone and sentiment" on the subject Of
freedom admirable" the loss will prove a rich
gain to the cause of justice and morality in the
country for there is talent enlisted in the Post
could it only have the free course which manhood
asks, and it still has an immense northern circu-
lation.

most emphatic condemnation Of such border ruin
anism.
Abhorrent as slavery is to the people of Ohio,
they have nevertheless been content to regard II
as II question belonging to the States in which II
exists, leaving hem to share its benefits and bear
its evils alone, but if to porpetuate its existence 1t
be necessary to rob our citizens of their dearest
rights, then indeed we should be alarmed.
Your committee would report that laws are now
upon our statute books under which these often
ders can be informed against and indicted, and by
executive aid brought before our courts for trial,
under the ample provisions Of the Federal Consti-
tuition and laws, and trust that without delay the
legal steps may be taken TO yindicate
the majesty of the law, the rights of our outraged
fellow citizens, and the sovereignty of the State,
and for the purpose of enabling the Governor to
execute the wish of this body, we recommend the
adoption of the resolution herewith reported.

slavery a rightful existence rs positively as did
the parties from whence they seeded. The whole
country needs the onlightening, and converting
influence of plain truth, however unwelcome. 1t
is the purpose and labor of this Society to afford
this to the nation and it should be sustained by a
numerous attendance upon its annual gathering,
and by liberal contributions. We repeat the hope
that we shall see the West more numerously rep.
resented than hitherto.

THE OHIO LEGISLATURE.


THE VIRGINIA BORDER RUFFIANs.
The outrages perpetrated on the citizens Of Qua
ker Bottom recently, by a company of Virginians,
has been brought before the Ohio Legislature,
where the following action has been had:
FIRST REPORT.
That there is probable cause for believing that
the laws of this State have been w~antonly violated
in the case referred to, and that they ought to be
INDICATED in their full severity.
Your committee also report that there is q large
class of cases in which the laws of this State may
be violated with impunity by citizens of other
States, and by persons escaping into other States,
from the want or from the inability of private
parties to defray the expenses of the Executive
requisition.
They therefore recommend the adoption of the
following resolution:
E. f. HUTCHINSON,
+. L. FLOWERS.
f.. S. TURPIN,
JOHN PITTMAN.
Resolved, That the standing committee on FL
nance be instructed 80 to enlarge the appropriation
for the Governors contingent fund, as to enable
him to pay therefrom the expenses of serving his
acquisitions for fugitives from ~justice' in all cases
wherein he may think it just or proper for the
State to assume such expenditures.
SECOND REPORT.
That from the evidence before us we are con-
strained to believe that a gross outrage has been
perpetrated upon the peaceable, law abiding citi-
zens of Ohio, by the citizens of a sister State, and
that, too, while our citizens were engaged in their
undoutbed prerogatiVe of free speech on the ques-
ton of negro slavery
Your committee are of the opirion that any Or
binary disturbance in any neighborhood in our
State, would not be sufficient cause for demanding
the attention of the Legislature, but when as in
the case before US, the citizens of Ohio arc not per-
mitted peaceably to assemble and freely speak up.
on the great question Of human freedom without
being assaulted by citizens Of q neighboring State,
armed with the axe and club, and cruelty beaten
for daring to utter a word against the peculiar
institution" we think it is time that the voice of
the people be heard through the Legislature in
