BY solemn resolution OF her Legislature, by the
vote Of her people, and by the voice Of her history,
Massa chusetts expressly Ell joins upon her repre-
sen,atives to zee that Mt oil hazards, and whatever
else may suffer, freedom shall prevail. Let me
not neglect the injunction. Alike by sympathy
with the slave, and by a determination to free
ourselves from the wIetched thralldom, we are al
so summoned to the effort now organized for the
emancipation of the national government from the
degrading influence. Hostile to civilization
wherever it shows itself, even ata distance 1t is
brutal and mean, and constitutes an unnatural
tyranny calculated to arouse the generous indigns'
ton OF good men. or course no ono who Is not
ready to say in his heart that there is no God, can
doubt the result; but this result, like every other
great good, can be accomplished only By well di.

Der OF Mobiles, one Of the ministers, NJ. dc Grip
penstadt, made a sort of an apology for presenting
the bill, saying. Ministers are men, and are liable
to commit errors" The rejection took place al
most without discussion in the Chamber of the
Clergy and Of the Bourgeolsie. In tie Chamber
Of Peasants fifty members spoke against the meas

SOUTHERN misunderstanding to the Mem
phis Bulletin, an immense emigration is going on
from the older slave States to Arkansas and Texas.
Two or three ferry boats are constantly occu pied
in %ferrying them over the river at Memphis.
and often thirty or forty wagons arc left behind,
%encamped OH the bluffs. The emigration is mostly
from Virginia, the Carolinus, Georgia, Alabama
and Tennessee, are destined TO Arkansas and Texas.
These States are the natural receptacles of emiGra-

in its natural channel, this emigration will settle
there. The attempt to turn it North to Kansas is
an up hill business. By the way we see some
Southern papers threaten a large emigration to
