For the Bugle.
MEETINGS IN GEAUGA COUNTY.

Mr.. EDITOR Several friends of freedom, hue
manity and justice. have been laboring in our VIZ.
cinity for some time past. Notwithstanding the.
bad storms which prevented many from coming.
out to hear, that ought to have heard, they toilsdi
with that untiring energy which characterizes true.
men and women.
Mr.. Foss, a man of giant intellect, proved clear
ly TO every sensible mind, that liberty must fail,
and slavery triumph, or slavery fall and liberty
triumph for two antagonis ms could not peace
fully exist together. The sympathy Of his soul,
the eloquence of his tongne are enlisted for the
downtrodden of our country. He denounced
church and state, in terms not to be mistaken, for
the nefarious part they take in darkening the.
minds of men, and r%iveting the shackles on suffer-.
ing humanity. He showed that the clergy gener-
ally were unceasing in their efforts to connect,
their religion with the policy of state. That
freedom TO the masses was to be obtained only
through their overthrow. If they were allowed to.
go on with their past established rule, darkness
and oppression would finally enshroud the conti-
nent.
Charles Lenox Remond is also a noble champion
for the rights of human beings. He stands idsn-
tilted in color. with the ~wronged. outraged, and
iuoutuhiNo suucrihR oneb VI tno Ooutu' no mas
an enlightened mind his eloquencs, surpassed by
very few, is sometimes sta rtling. His FOUL is filed
with the interests of humanity, A spirit that dan
ger does but excite, and suffering cannot subdue;
and though the world were against him, he would
with undaunted courage expose the abuses, and
speak in a louder and louder voice for the rights
Of humanity. Sarah p. Remond is a lady endow-
ed with the capacities of a noble mind. To hear
her speak it would seem there could be no heart
that does not beat with Indignation or pulsate with
more tender pity, to think because her complex
ion is of a darker hue she must be denied all pro-
lection. These noble champions of human rights
are appearing freedoms arch amid the clouds Of
t~hickened gloom. The changes Of the last fifty
years are no less surprising, than they will be for
fifty years to come. Words are bsing uttered at
which there is scarce a heart, that does not throb
with fear or hope. Souls that were cold, have
been touched By a Promethean spark, and become
embroidered to utter words that conservatism
trembles to hear. The hills and wales Of our
country are yet to witness courage that knows
not fear. Thinking minds will progress. The
names of those who have toiled for the right. and
consecrateI their lives to liberty and equality
against the crushing despotism of this nation,
will be immortal.

A CONVENTION IN BEHALF OF KANsAs.-"A gem
eral Convention of the friends of free Kansas
throughout the Union" is called TO assemble in
Cleveland, on the 10th and 18th of the present
month. The object Of the call is "to organize
public sentiment against the attempt at defrauding
and subjugating the people of that Territory, and
to adopt such other measures for securing their
rights and those of the people Of the free states,
as may be deemed necessary" Those issuing
the call, also, urgently recommend the immediate
getting up of circumstances to congress against
the reception of the state into the Union, under
the fraudulent, minority constitution recently
adopted. Whether it will avail anything for Kan.
ss or not, suclfa measure is well on behalf of the
people. Such remonstraDce should be circulated,
and should be signed by every man and woman in
the nation who has any sense of justice, or any re-
gard for the principles Of sclf.government.

A METHODIST ANTI-SLAvERY CONVENTIONAL
Convention has been called by numerous min.
listers and members of five annual conferences
in the State of New York to be held at Rochesle r
on the 18th, inst. The important objects of the
convention are set forth in the Call as follows:
LIST. Whether we endorse or r~epudiate the doc.
trine, that the thousands of Shareholders now in
our Church, are there by Constitutional right.
ID. Whether we shall direct our efforts to the
e1ecting of a change OF the General Rule on Sla.
very, or insisting that the General Rule is not in
our way, lOoki only to direct prOhiGaory legista,
ton.
Sd. If it is deemed best to attempt a change
of the General Rule, to consider uhat charoe il
is best to propose whether the one voted upop
at the last General Conference, or some other p;
so that the whole plan shall not be defeated bv
the starting of different propositions, upon which
the vntes Of Anti'S!avery Conferences shall be
wasted.
4. To consider whether any thing further can
be done, and if so, what, to secure the effectual
extirpation of Slavery from the Methodist Episoo-
pal Church in 1860.

MANY THANKS, to our friends in the lecturing
field, who amidst their multiplied labors, take time
so promptly to report to our readers Of their con-
ficts, successes and disappointments. All are full
of interest to every earnest friend of the cause.
The weather for the last six weeks has been very
discouraging, diminishing the numbers in attend.
ance upon their meetings and greatly increasing
their hardsbips and exposures. But still hopeful
and faithful, they toll on. Let every abolitionist
resolve to do his share, without abatement, in
sustaining them pecuniarily and morally,

MEETING AT FAIRMoUNT.-Elwood Patterson of
Alliance. writes US, that an interesting meeting
was held at Paramount meeting house on Sunday
last the 10Th inst, which was addressed BY Will
liam Holiday and Reuben Erwin. During the last
session a spirited discussion was kept up, regard.
ing the consistency and anti-slavery character Of
the Republican party. The meeting closed by the
unanimous vote of the audience, that law or no
law, constitution or no constitution, they would
never aid in the return Of a fugitive slave to his
bonds.
How any Of those who thus voted, will be able
to keep their pledge and still support the existing
slave catching union. We are unable to see.

A DrsArPoINTMENT.-We learned with deep re-
gret,a day or two since, that Mr.. and Miss Remond
on finding themselves unable to reach Leesville, in
time for their appointments on Saturday and Sun
day last, abandoned the whole list of appointments
made for them, in Carroll and Harrison counties.
This will be q sore disappointment to many persons
who are anticipating much good from their visit to
that section Of the country.
