WESTERN ANTI.SLAVERY FAIR.

The undersigned members Of the Salem Sewing
Circle, hereby inform their co-laborers abroad
that arrangements have been made for holding their
annual Fair on the oath and 25th Of December
next.
Those acquainted with this enterprise need not
be told OF the necessity Of unusual effort on that
occasion. The commercial embarrassments of the
past year, the clanor of politicians coutending for
side issues, or aiming at selfish ends, the shouts Of
revivalists whe ignore the claims of the slave, and
allure many from their course, all contribute. in
their several ways, to lessen our resources. and
hence the urgent need of renewed zeal in address,
ing ourselves to this work.
We therefore cordially invite. not only those
whose kind assistance we have had heretofore, Blu,
all who valao liberty for the uation and peace and
blessing for their own fresides, to unite with us il
this department. of snti'slavery labor, We ask %
you, liberal cOntributions-scarcely any article
that has a market value can come amiss.
Our funds are always used for the propagation 0
the anti'slavery gospel to divorce the Church
from man's,ealipg and to s%upplant tyranny ant
fraud with true democracy.

no less than 1915 having gone from within her
borders"
These statistics can give but small encourage
ment to those who look to this society for the fnaI
extinction of American slavery, especially wher
coin AIRED with the increase Of slave population
during the ame period. Ia 1920, although sla
very then existed in New York, New Jersey, Penn
e%ylvania, Rhode Island, Illinois and Indiana, the
slave population Of the country, as shown by the
census, was ,598, 03S and in 1850, long after sa
very was abolished in all the States mentioned, il
was 3 2O4,3l3. showing an increase in thirty year,
OF l,666,2T5 while the American Colonization
Society, for t~hirty,siS years, has liberated less than
six thousand. That is, while the slave population
has increased over fifty i've thousand a year, the
Colonization Society has liberated two hundred
and fifty slaves q year. How long /, will take the
Society, at this ratio, to abolish slavery, we leave
those interested to figure up.-N Y. Ere. Post.

A METHODIST ASTI.SLAvERY UNION, has been or
object is to induce the Methodist Episcopal Church
to take positive anti-slavery ground. Among other
labors il proposes to itself is that of obtaining
1000 signcrs in that conference, to q petition to
the next general conference to enact a rule by
which all slave holders shall be excluded from the
Methodist Episcopal church. 1t mmen the
organization of similar associations in all the
Northern Conferences. A correspondent OF the
Northern Independent says. speaking of this
movement:
"A Convention should be called, a similar Union
formed. and similar measures adopted in all the
non.slave holding Conferences. If ever slavery
is legally excluded from the NJ. E. Church, it will
be as q result of petitions coming up to the Gener.
al Conference from the thousands of our Northern
laity. The nam IS of kalf a million of Methodists
might he got, and should lie got to such petitions,
and sent up to the next General Conference. But
they can never be obtained without means with
which to circulate documents, print and distribute
petitions, and canvass every charge. Will not
our really earnest anti slavery men in each Con.
ference take hold Of this matter at once, and ar.
range fer a Convention and a Union? If there
are bot few Of the right stamp in any Conference,
no matter, get what names you can to a call, and

The CRUSHING Our PRocEss.-Some two or three
weeks since three free colored meh in Dorchester
county, Maryland, were sold into perpetual slavery
for alleged aid rendered to escaping slaves. Still
more recently, Hugh Hazlitt, a white man charged
with persuaiing slaves to run away from Durches'
ter county, Maryland. was tried at Cam
bridge, and found guilty on seven ~ctmen
lie was sentenced by the court, on the first indicl'
ment. to the penitentiaty till May, 1869, aud on
each of the others for six years, making, 10 the az
gregate. forty five years.
Four moro slaves for life-doomei as such for
their humanity. How many imprisoned victims
oil this sort are now wearing out their lives in
Southern jails and penitentiaries no one knows,
but they are doubtless numerous and constantly
increasing in number. Thus it is I true that he who
in this boastful land, de?arteth from evil, maketh
himself a prey.

ten or twelve counties Of the State where their

increased the value Of real estate In their ~neighbor.

York Evening Post says:
'In some Of those counties, We are Informed by
the natives, the value of real estate has increased
astonishingly, notwithstanding odr late financial
troubles and it is even said that an assessment

discussion can never be doubtful"
These settlements have been formed under the
