eating journals, with tho principles Of which Wo

for it respect where approval is withheld. In o

against the rotation principle announced rs hat.
ing been adopted 10y Mr. BUCHANAN, and in sus-
tanning his position in opposition to the President
he remarks:
1t (rotation) means, in q word, that to tho vic
tors belong the spoils, and it looks to the public
officers of the country as n source of reward to
the conbatants who have been conspicuous in the
fight. We, on the contrary, hold TO the old fash
toned Republican idea that offices were made for
the people and not for the convenience of their in.
cumbents; and that men should be selected to fill
them, not for their noisincss at primary meetings
their adroitness or unscrup ulousness at conven'
tons but because Of their acknowledged qualifI
cations, mental and moral, to discharge the func
lions assigned to them, with benefit to tho publ;
veal. Admit that Office is for the public good
admit that. in some instances at least, the old in
cumbent could much better discharge tho duties
Of his post than the one called to succeed him
then it follows that in some cases the rotation
principle may act detrimentally to the public in.
terest-a conclusion that it is of no use to enforce
by hyp, thetical illustrations, as examples will
doubtless be numerous enough in no long time.

the State. So far we'll done for the Legisla-

Of the State. SO far we'll done for the Legisla-|
ture.
The Senate has also moved in relation to the
late decision Of the Supreme Court. After an
appropriate speech, Mr.. Kelly of franklin intro
duced in the Senate the following preamble and
resolution:
WHRREAs, The Supreme Court of the United States
have, in their late decision of the case of bred
Scott, virtually decided that the owners of
slaves may bring or send them into States where
slavery is prohibited, and still retain their
ownership in such sIaves-which decision, in
effect, declares that slavery may exist in this
and other free States and,
WHEREAS, 1t is deemed as essential to the welfare
of this State, that slavery be utterly excluded
from its limits therefore,
Resolred, That the Standing Committee on Fed
eral Relations be instructed to inquire whether
any, and ii any, what Legislation is required to
prevent the introduction of slavery into this State,
and that said committee report by bill or other
wise.
This resolution was subsequently discussed.
NJ Kelley said, that the freemen Of the North
must form themselves into n Gordon of liberty
They must say to the South, in the language Of
the Macedonians, If you come to us, yor come
upon our spears Or, as the Creator said to the
sea, Hitherto shalt thou come, and no further
here shall thy proud waves be stayed God
forbid we should ever DO driven to the last ulti-
matum.'
"Mr. Matthews opposed the resolutions as prcma-
ture, for the real opinion Of the court was not yet
known tn is side of the mountains. Our only in
formation in regard to it was by newspaper nc
counts and we should wait for the publication Of
sta dac;a;np ;tsalc To dono,noaj slayory oa tho
greatest curse that had ever afflicted this or any
ether people. But he believed that instead of
gaining, it was daily losing strength. Every such
attempt as this to encroach upon liberty, was but
an evidence Of it's weakness.
Marsh followed in sturdy and eloquent sup
,pors of the resolutions, and congratulated Mr..
Matthews upon taking a step toward returning to
the houseasld Of his FIRST love-a phrase perhaps
more characteristic than happy"
The resolutions were ndopted-yeas 81, nays 6.

BUYING

A Virginia stakeholder writes to Horace Greeley
requesting him az he processes to be a philanthro-
pis, to take measures to buy from slavery a family
now held as chattels, whose character and capa-
6ilities this STAKEHOLDER endorses as follows:
II know a slave who is fit to be free. lilo is in
telligent-able to read and write and make Up ac-
counts in a small way-is a good carpenter and
cabinet-maker- an honest man and q consistent
member of q Christian church. For some years
this slave hired himself-poid his owner n full
price for his me-laid up money, and bought his
slave wife and their younger children. Two Of
their older children are still slaves"
81 ought to have stated that these negroes are
of nearly pure white blood--the wife, o woman of
excellent character, and the children handsome
and sprightly."
The writer thinks the majority of slaves Of very
different character from those Of the hundreds he
knows; he docs not know q dozen who are fit for
freedom" And the free negroes he thinks still
more Ignorant. immoral and degraded than the
slaves" lie seems to coincide with the Supreme
Court, that they have no rights which should be
respected by white men. The following is Nj
Greeley's reply to this proposition to go into the
slave trade.
NEW YORK, March III, 1891.
My DEAR Sir: / have yours of The It'll inst,
when commences with o great mistake: You pro-
fess to be q philanthropist." make no such pro-
fession-very few professions of any kind. The
world judges me as it sees fit from my acts; l ST.
lently abide its verdict.
If can only deserve the reputation of a phi
lanthropist by buying out of slavery such negroes,
almost white" as the masters believe unfit to be
longer slaves, then / have no desire to earn that
ti:le. So far from inclining to buy them. / do not
wish this particular class bought or otherwise
emancipated while the great mass of their breth-
rem remain in bondage. On the contrary, l wish
them to remain where they are, looking their
white uncles and cousins in the face, n perpetual
reminder Of the Internal system Of which they are
victims, and of tho iniquities which, even in the
judgment of Shareholders, may be and are perpe-
trated under it. No, Sir; l hate Slavery too deep
~ to help drug the cOnsciences Of your caste by
buying out of Slavery those xhom even you say
are fit no longer to be bondmen.
Your request to 'let you alone" in the Slave
States | shall duly re,pest; / ask your Members
of Congress and Supreme Court Judges to do like
wise by us. Your Nebraska bills and bred Scott
decisions, forcing Slavery upon the Free States in
spite of themselves, are goading US beyond the
point of peaceful endurance.
Yours, HORACE GREELEY.
P. 81 will print your letter. so that any one
North or South. who wishes to 60 what you ask Of
me, NAV have the opportunity.

BALTIMORE CONFERENCE.

The Baltimore Conference of the Methodist
sessions.
1t has at this session fully maintained its pro.
slavery reputation, as will be seen by the follow
ing account Of its proceedings on the subject.
r. j. Gillison offered the following resolutions /:
Resolved, BY the Baltimore Conference, in con.
ference assembled, that we highly deprecate the
agitation of the Slavery question, which has al
ready resulted to the detriment of the political and
religious interests Of this country.
Resolved, That, as heretofore, we will oppose
with zeal any aggressions which shall be attempt
ed by the abolition agitation of the country.
The resolutions were adopted by yeas 900, nays
Ia.
Rev. Irving II. Terrence offered the following:
Whereas, the position Of the Baltimore Confer.
ence is well known to this country, we deem the
introduction of the slavery question in this body
as inappropriate and I'M udicious.
This created considerable excitement, whom Mr.
Terrence withdrew it,
Rev. Henry Slicer WAS sorry that the subjec
had been brought up, especially at a time wber
the public mind is 50 sensitive on that question
and he would move a reconsideration of the vott
by which the resolutions were reported
Rev. John A Collins said they could not make
one step back ward in this matter, without de
~struction to their border. There was no slavery
agitation in the Southern States, nor was there un
Ill the fire-brand of the North was thrown among
them. The resolutions only contem plated the agi
tation of the North. He regretted the resolutions
were introduced, but they ,nuld not recede with.
out wreck and ruin to the border. There could be
no explanation made to the South, and they would
believe the Conference was afraid.
Rev. w. L. ID. Clemm Moved TO lay the motion
to reconsider on the table, which WAS adopted.

LET US PERFORM OUR DUTY.

Frederick Douglass closes an article in q late
number of his paper with the following well-told
truths
If they 1.-THE fathers of the Republic] have been
guilty in this matter of the ensiavemout of men
II makes it none the less the duty of the men of
this day to remove the evil. Had they cOvenanted
that every year there should sail from the harbors
of the counIry vessels bound on a p%iratical cruise,
and pledged the support Of the nation to the
pirates, even though millions of dollars should
be brought into the country each year, and though
millions were invested in ships and stores, it
would not take the nation long to discover that n
wicked practice, though bound in Constitutions
and treaties a thousand times, is none the less a
wicked practice, and must be continued at the
peril, temporal and eternal Of those who participate
in il.
Slavery is q wicked practice wherein the evils OF
piracy are intensified a thousand times. Men are
robbed, women violated. murders are common
occurrences, and the cries of its wretched victims
ascend constantly in the ear of Him that stitch In
the heavens. But TO our demand for its instant
abolition, we are told by priests and politicians,
that the Fathers permitted it, therefore We must
leave it alone.
Such was the reply made no doubt by the Bar
barry pirates, when demand was made 90 withdraw
their corsairs from the seas. The Fathers permit
ted it, therefore We practice it. The American
people must be taught, that every generation has
its duties; our Fathers performed theirs; let US
perform ours by uprooting utterly the wretched
system of slavery.

A TRUTH SQUEEZED OUT

Mr.. Poesly. collector of the Port Of Boston, IN
der Pierce has been rotated" out of Office by Blu
chanan; while Watson Freeman, the Marshal who
sent Burns back to slavery, has been reappointed.
When the disappointed Pccsly heaId of the ap-
pointment of the Marshal, he exclaimed in his
anger and envy, "To Je sure; lie caught a niger !"
Says the Tribune of this exclamation, mo gasp.
ing person in the article of death, ever had any
thing truer squeezed out of him by his agonies."
Yes, catching niggers is the most exalted service
a Yankee can be put to by the government, and il
the surest of good pay; just as the highest honors
and best pay of observation-disclosures of the South is
derived from driving and flogging the same species
Of property on the plantation. Now that by the
dicta of the Supreme Court, slavery is lawful in
New England, the area of honors and e%moluments
is enlarged, and the discounted Peesly may
yet have a chance to get up along side of marshal
Freeman when Save fogging shall become as
as slave. catching. And why should it
not be? For are not the slaves caught, mainly
that they may be Aogged, and thus made examples
Of to their fellows?

SrEAKER BANKs.-The New York Tribune pro-
claims a high culogy of Mr.. Banks, as Speaker OF
the House of Representatives with the folio wing
rebuke of his "dilatoriness."
We think Mr.. Banks might have been Speaker
of the next House. or in some other official posi-
ton not less exalted, but for the fatality to the
Fremont movement, resulting in a great measure
from the di!atoriness, delay and inaction which
were occasioned by his advice. He belongs to
that class of politicians who believe that Provi-
dence makes all the hay. requiring only very slight
assistance from man, at a late hour in the day, al
ter the evening dews have commenced falling, say
about an hour before sundown. We hold to q
widely different faith. Our sympathIes and conf
Gencc are with those who rise with the lark to
greet the p~urpling east"
We are inclined to think that Mr.. Banks is not
the only maa in the Republican Party whose NOR
al inactivity was the occasion of the disaster of the
party. Politicians are rather given to trimming
and moral cowardice. which often begets inaction
and insures defeat.
