The AMNlvERsARY.- of the annual meeting oil
the Western Anti.Slavery Society, just past, we
have in the pressure of other duties, only time tc
say that it was one Of great interest. The number
present was large much larger than last year.
There were good delegations from Western Penn,
sylvania and from various parts of Ohio. Its ses.
sions were pervaded by an earnest antisiavery pur-
pose the spirit of compromise seemed quite at a
discount, except in the case of a few Jealous poll.
ticians and some unprincipled cavaliers. Thu
amount of funds contributed and pledged was
greater than last year, exhibiting an increased in.
terest in the spread of the good cause of freedom.
OF the more prominent public advocates of our
principles, our friends the Fosters, Pillsbury and
Foss, acquitted themselves with all their usuaI
ability and fidelity, while Mr.. Remond, who has
never before attended our annual meeting, added
greatly to its value by his clear and forcible argu.
ments and his impressive appeals. These speak.
es were worthily seconded by Miss Remond and
Mrs. Coleman, who were also for the first time
with us. The meeting was eminently encouraging
and we expect it to be but the precursor of much
good resulting from the labors of the devoted alb
oli.ionists who have already gone out from it,
to awaken the people to their duty to the millions
of our countrymen in chains. e

FRIEND MARIUs Thy Editorial of last week
Tin noticing the Yearly meeting of Friends, held
in this place. reminds ne of the Dut;h Esquire or
Judge, who wished to pass judgement in q case
when he had heard but one side of the evidence,
he did not wish to investigate as there might be
some conflicting evidence if both parties were
heard.
Thee says all the speakers thee heard dealt only
in generalities and made no application of our
principles to the denominations of the age, Intern
pcrance, Slavery, or War. and thee forgot to add
Capital Punishment. l will admit we do not al.
ways specify the sins of the World separately, but
ecomme q course Of life that would abolish
them all but last year we petitioned our State
Legislature to abolish Capital Punishment and
appointed a Committee to present and advocate it
lat considerable expense) and it was acted upon
by that body and came within a few votes of be-
ing successful. This year it claimed much atten-
ton and it was urgently recommended for each of us
to take the subject home with us and agitate it in
our several neigh6orhoods.
Thee also says, tho Sermons might have been
Tolerated and commended by Southern Slavehold.
es who fellowship their theology" l do not
think there is any slave holders who do "fellow-
chip their theology" as part OF our Discipline
prohibits US from holding slaves or hiring them
of their masters. We have Queries which are
read in our Monthly, and Quarterly and Yearly
meetings. some of them read thus. Are Friends
careful to bear testimony against Slavery? Do
they provide in a suitable manner for those under
their direction who have had their freedom secur-
ed, and are they instructed in useful learning ?
This was answered, they do, except in the use of
the product of Slave Labor. Another Query is,
Are friends clear of importing, vending, distilling
or the unnecessary use OF spirituous liquors, or
frequensing taverns, and the answers generally in
substance were, they are, or nearly SO. Another
Query is. Do friends maintain a faithful testimo.
ny against a hireling ministry, Oaths, Military SER
vices, Clandestine trade, Prize Goods and Lotter-
les. The answers were very generally clear Of any
breach of those queries. All these subjects and
many more are discussed in our monthly, Quar-
terly and Yearly Meetings, and recommended to
our strict observance.
If all other societies had purged themselves SO
effectually of those nominations to what extent
would they exist at this time ? My Dear Friend
let US have charity towards each other and allow
each one to oppose all evils according to the die
tates of our consciences. | think thee would not
knowingly misrepresent us, but / think many do
for tho want of knowledge.
Very Respectfully thy Friend,
J.T. SHAW.

disappointment. 1t is true that Mr.. Frosts great
soul found room for q few lines in condemnation
of the Republican party, but that was crowded up
into q little corner of fine print items, where, nobody
ever reads. We thank Mr.. Frost for that little
surviving spark of .Abolitionism in the Ret6, mer.
read the Republican platform in the Peformer
with feelings of the deepest disgust, and when ]
had read it and appreciated its merits l said to
myself, All Mr.. Refoymer your omment have got
to come now. l looked earnestly and carefully
over the paper for Mr.. Pryne's manifestations of
disgust, but all for no purpose. l turned it over
and over with tie thought running conruscdly in
my mind; Is it %possiblel l even looked over the
cid advertisements thinking that through mistake
1t might be inserted there, but NO. Then to add
still more to this confused state of things, Mr..
Pryne openly declared he was no Republican on
She platform on Sunday afternoon.
When a mans actions are before the people we
need net his words to establish his character.
When l see a man talk for the Republican party,
write for the Republican party, act for the Re-
publican party, and vote the Republican ticket, /
simply conclude him a Republican, l am tired
OF this eternal compromise, The slave must con-
tinue groan in his %fettors, and the proud flag of
Despotisn will wave triumphantly in the breeze
so long as we are always giving, and giving to the
devil dominion which should be kept as sacred as
the courts of Heaven. As for my own part / feel
rs though l was planted in tho unyielding rock
over which the storms of political excitement have
been hurled in all their fury, and with the help of
God l will there stand, although am left alone
and made a target TO be shot at and Missed at by
all the combined forces of perverted man.

given of thor meetings that the most comfort
able and commodious places possible are secured
in which to hold them let them invite the attend
ance of their neighbors and second and strengthen
the impression made by the presentation of truth.
and we shall expect to see marked results, in
spite of the dissipating influence Of political ex-
element and the morally supplying and stultifying
power of q pro-slavery religion.
We will add, what must be obvious to all, that
the expenses of this campaign will be necessarily
heavy. And .hose who have assumed the respon-
sibility of meeting them, have a strong claim upon
the liberality of abolitionists generally and especi-
ally upon those whose families and immediate
neighborhoods are benefited by the meetings and
conventions.

COMPENSATED EMANCIPATION.

The Convention for forming q society to promote
the emancipation Of sOuthen slaves by appropria'
tons from the treasury Of the United States, came
off last week at Cleveland. 1t was well attended
and among the members we notice the names OF
many excellent men. A society was formed and
resolutions adopted.
We have felt no disposition to throw obstacles
in the way of any class of men seeking to do
good. The formation Of this society is now q
matter of history, and its success or failure will
soon become a fact, and we are willing to leave the
result for time to disclose. But as political journ-
alists we NAV state some of the difficulties which
we apprehend will never be surmounted:
We DO not believe the Constitution of the United
States will be SO amended as to authorize Congress
to appropriate money for this extensive purchase Of
slaves.
Secondly, The slave States will never sell their
slaves until constrained to do so by actual necessi.
tY.
Thirdly, The people of the free States, in our
opinion, will never acknowledge the right of any
class of men to hold Gods Image in degrading
servituds, or to sell or buy immortal beings. Nor
will they willingly consent to pay their money to
men who deserve the halter far more than a pecu-
uiary compensation for their crimes. Nor has the
corruption and tyranny of the slave power in Kan
sas, or in Congress, or in the Executive or Judicial
departments Of government tended to conciliale
the people of the free States.
This redemption of ~captives from slavery was
p~ractised in the darker ages but all civilized ma
tions abandoned it as barbarous and heathenish as
early as the sixteenth century. The Turks being n
semi-barbarous people, continue to sieze and en-
slave Christians, under pretence of doing so in order
to convert :hem to Mahomedanism but would con-
sent to their ransom precisely as Our Shareholders
now do, by the payment of money. The BarbaIy
States, from their local position, had great advan-
tages for siezing and enslaving Christians.
In 1870 Phillip the Bold, with a combined force
of English and French, attacked Tunis with fire
and S1rord, and released all the slaves. This was
right and just. They refused to pay 1925 per slave
for their redemption, as it is now proposed to pay
our slayeholders. who are far more worthy of the
sword and b%ayOnet than the stockholders of Tunis
were.
In the latter part of the last century the Alger-
ines siezed and enslaved the citizens of the United
States. Many friends were DESTROYS of redeeming
their relations held in Algerine slavery. Old men
will r~ecollect the time when they were called on
