DUTCH EMANCIPATION.

The Dutch government has determined upon the
emancipation oi slavery in its West India colo
mes; paying full equivalent to the owners of
slaves Tor the property that is to be taken from
them, and provided that the emancipated shall
contribute to the formation of u fund destined
eventually to reimburse the state the expenses of
their liberation. How far it squares with justico
to make the slaves pay the cost of their freedom,
when they had nothing 10 do with the placing
themselves in slavery is point of right for moral
lists to discuss: but as all acts of the kind in
whish the Dutch government is engaged must nee
essarily parakO Of the nature Of compromise, and
as even good deeds must he done occasionally by
the all of imperfect machinery, we should look
rather at the end designed than ut the meana used
10 effect it. The proceeding is interesting chiefly
as showing how small is the effect of the doings Of
the ,reactiOnists against free labor principles.
That the slave trade should be revived has been
gravely proposed in this country and the French
government has countenanced plans that look very
much like fsvoring such revival; while even in
England there have been heard voices speaking as
if the opinion that has prevailed there so long
against the trade in human flesh had senaibly
soitened. Right in the face of these facts we find
the Dutch actually aboshing slavery ITSELF in
those very colonies of theirs where, are assured
it is not only profitable mode Of industry, but
the sole form of industry that succeed.
Now, the Dut,h are a careful, prudent, money
making race. as little under the dominion of senti-
ment as any people that exist. They 20 cody and
methodica!ly TO work In the premises, and pay no
regard whatever to the arguments and predictions
OF the reactonists in America and Europe. The
number of persons to be set free by their emanci.
patton act cannot be very large, but the act itself
is blow ut the servie industrial system, and
Will be felt as such throughout the world. 1t is a
step in the right direction, made at the right time
and by the right people, long renowned for their
knowledge of public economy. We do not hear
that our government has manifested any anxiety
on the subject though it has been solemnly said
that wo ought not to alloy the slaves of Cuba to
be emancipated. The DuIch colonies are not tobe
named with Cuba, but nevertheless the example of
Holland cannot be without its effect on Spain,
and every step that is made in the West Indies
toTards the roofing up Of slavery, advances the
hour Of the cessation of servie labor 10 the Queen

PROTESTANT JESUITISM.

The American Tract Society has been attempt
ing to instruct the shareholders in religion, with
out adverting 10 the sin Of s!avery-the great pop
ular crime of the South. The policy of the society
is to observe profound silence on slavery, but dis
cuss other topics, ON which the Southern consci-
enee is not stecled. Hence none of the publica-
tions OF the society have made any such illusions
to the peculiar initiation, to shock the of
its slavehoding patrons, This plan of silence on
one Of the greatest end most inexcusable sins Of
the age, was displeasing to many Northern men,
and the society at lis last Annual Meeting rosolv-
ed to change its course and to publish against the
sin of slavery but with some restrictions so rs not
to offend too much the South But such change
could not be-the proslaverv officials, who direct
tho practical operations of the society," negatived
the order for antislaverv publications, leaving
things go on as they always have done, in subser
yiency to the slaveholding arstocracy.
Viewed as a species of slavery propagandism
we see nothing in this worse than daily occurs
among the miniOns Of slavery. 1t is ust Of a piece
with the policy usually adopted in Church and
State, The general government has used its full
power almost from the commencement of our exist
ence as nation, to uphold and propagate slavery
the whole machinery of our government has been
under Southern control, and by every conceivable
means it has been made to foster the slave interest.
AT this moment as well as for years past, the ad
ministration at Washington uses not only its vast
patronage, but the whole military force of the
that is subduing Kansas. Practically, the purse
and the sword both Houses of Congress, the Post
Ofice Department the United States Court, and
nearly the entire Oaiciary Of the Government, is
directly concerned in this abominable foray upon
human rights. Nationally, but the shadow Of liberty
is left us. Schemes more brutal than the autocrat
of Russia would dare attempt, are pursued at les-
ure by ou- Presidents and with twice the whining
about constitutionality that should characterize
martyr for liberty and law.
Such men are to be held in adherence. But
their vices are the fruit of their nefarious prnci-
pies. Did they not regard man as a being to be
prsyed upon--dd they deem the rights Of human
ity sacred in all places and under all crounstanc.
es, despite slave laws and piratical enlctmentO of
every kind-this whole policy of compounding with
sin and crushing men to perpetuate cruel laws,
would cease at once.
The same principle which leads tho State thus
to sacrifice men to preserve q system, is equally
rife in the Church. Clerical dignties assume that
division must not be tolerated. that any and every
sacrifice is to be made rather than allow slavehod-
ors to withdraw. On this ground, the policy of
the American Tract Society Is based. The aim of
the society is to maintain visible unity among
professed Christians in spite of the sin of slavery

just at this moment our own, and all other
Christian Missionaries, are in eminent peril in
the East Indies. The rympahies Of Chrstendom
are very properly excited by these unlocked

for those that weep and be in peril with those

to be in warm sympathy with missionaries in that
distant region, il is no less our duty to remember
the porils Of honest men in our own country
Great as the dangers Of residence in India at
this disturbed iuncture, they are not great in
the Southern States of this conie9eracy. 1t is
safer to preach the Gospel among tie infuriated
Sepoys than among Southern Stockholders. No

BRANTFoRT, Canada West
Nov 9th, 1857
To THE EDITOR OF TIE ANTI SLAVERY BUGLE
Dear Friend: 1t is standing rule of Lyceums
in the United States, as of Mechanics Institutes in
England and here in Canada to interdict the dis
cussion of political and theological questions
This Of course is done the plea of uniting for
intellectual purposes those Of different creeds, who
otherwise, it is alleged could not be brou ght to
cooperate for such an object controversy those
questions not being possible but at the expense Of
harmony.
Do reformers realize rs they ought, the true
character of those restrictions on free speech =?
What sort Of people are they who must thus needs
stipulate, as the condition Of their cooperation
for given object that their respective creeds
shall neither De examined nor exposed, who get
angry: or threaten to get angry when it is propos-
ed not to examine their creeds, but to leave them
to the chances of examination Those who love
truth supremely love it more than their pFecon-
cieved opinions they hold no creed they would
hide from examination /; their creeds to them are
only valuable as they will bear this testing. Not
for these are those restrictions imposed but for the
accommodation of those who do not love truth su.
premely, who prefer their creeds and parties to
truth and right, who love darkness more than
light They are as terrified of free speech as slave
holders are Of instructions, and union with such
is held by simpletons to be essential to the
cess of literary institutions, as union with slave
holders is held by many to be essential to the safe
ty and prosperity of the American nation, and
their anger and threats Of anger as much feared
on n small scale as tho buster of Shareholders is
feared on a large one.
Can any object be good one that is dependent
on such cooperation =? Can anything good be
promoted by deliberate agreement to keep in
darkness that which shuns the light? People do
evil that good may come, but the good is never
gained by such means they reap as they sow
like produces its like falsehood to liberty can
gain nothing for intellectual culture. Intellectual
culture is the pretended object. of those institu
tions, to cater for intellectual epicureanism
is their real object by mean appropli ia
ton Of the fruits of thought while Sinking
the work of thought. Intellectual culture can
only be had by paying the price. and no trick of
trade can evade it, free thought and it's free utter
ance is the condition from first to last.
To rightly estimate the true character of those
restrictions on free thought and free speech, we
need but to advert to our Indebtedness thereto
for all that we have and are that is good, Every
ray of new light that has blessed the world, every
ameoration of our spiritual or material condition,
every discovery of SCIENCE every step of progress,
these have all involved the discussion or some
more or less angerexciting political or theological
question. Where but for this interdicted contro'

SHOULD NORTHERN LABORERS BIZ
SLAVES?

The following item appeared in the columns Of
our neighbor of the Post few days since:
How is it with our friends in the South? The
Southern States have not escaped altogether the
consequences Of the present panic. There. too,
1t has paralyscd trade and commerce, closed up
banks, and deprecated State stocks, railroad
stocks, and every other class Of paper security.
Merchants there have failed and traders been COM
PEELED to suspend, But the pOor--the laboripg
cGsses--how is it with them? Are they exposed
to the peris to which the la6oring classes Of the
North are subjected? Is there any fear of q single
man, woman or child out Of three millions of ne.
groes there, dying from cold or starvation? viii
any Of them be driven to beg in the streets for
bread, as many Of our poor mechanics here will
doubtless Sc? viii the poor houses be filled to
overf0wing and soup houses belcaguered by star
wing hosts? Let the canting, whining crew Of
Northern aboiitOnists answer these questions.
Poor houses and soup Kitchens institutions un.
known at the South, ana they will continue to be
unknown there even throughout the coming win
ter. The three millions Of labOrers at tho South
will net, we undertake to FAY, miss any of those
necessities and comforts OF life to which they
have been always accustomed. They will be cloth
ed and housed and fed as heretofese and will pro-
badly be ignorant Of the fact that these are hard
times"
If there is any logical sequence to this IL rs thai

Is preterable-that slaves are better OF than our

very here to the exclusion of working men.
If the Post is prepared TO followed out its own
logic s ought at once to advocate the policy OF max

be false to its convictions if. entertaining tho SEN

No shrinking or dodging behind the bush.
