God alone has SO ordained. As the instrument of
Providence l was un willing that my entry into the

A SOUTHERN EXILE.

L. W. Higgenson, iu q speech before o Commit.

law to prevent the recapture Of fugitive slaves, re,

"Thero is at this moment in this city, or has

white as any man or woman within this hall, and

man whom she knew to be a p~ro6igate debauchee.
All her woman's feelings thus outraged-for she
loved the man who was the father of her child
she resolved on instant fight. White herself, she
found no difficulty in Disgusting herself as a

From the Lawrence Kansas Republican.
KIDNAPPING IN KANSAS.

Several days since, some cOlored people EN-
ployed DR.. boy, who lives not far from this city,
TO take them to another point in the Territory.
About ten miles from here, they were SET upon by
n band of miscroants, Numbering some fifteen OF
twenty, mainly from Missouri, but comprising
some wretches who pollute the soil Of Kansas by
making II their home, and forcibly taken and car
ried into Western Missouri. 1t was proposed at
frst by the kidnappers to murder DR.. boy, his
son, and another man who was with them, on the
ground that dead men tell no tales" but they
finally concluded to take them to Missouri, where
DIR. boy and his son arc now confined on a charge
Of stealing negroes from that State. Bail has
been demanded in the excessive sum of s. 600.
We characterize this whole matter very mildly
when we call it a fragrant and daring outrage.
DR.. boy is guilty of no crime. lie has not been
to Missouri to steal negroes. The charge on
whish he is imprisoned is entirely false. But, had
he been a criminal Of the highest grade, it was no
way for an armed gang of wretches to come over
here and kidnap him. lie should have been prop
erly arrested, and legally taken there, if at all
But, as we have said, be was guilty of no crime
lilo was doing only what he had a perfect right to
do.
We may as we'll at once and forever dismiss all
ideas of comfy or & cd neighborhood with Mis-
souri,, if she is to send over her armed bands Of
villains and ut.thrOAts TO way'lay and kidnap our
citizens. For four years the citizens Of Missouri
have attempted to crush the people of Kansas,
When we were weak, they overran US with fire
and sword. They left tie mark Of their murder
GUS incursions in the devastated and ruined homes
Of our citizens. We have grown strong-and in
our strength we have been willing to bury the
past. But if, now, the citizeus of Kansas are to
be kidnapped and dragged into Missouri, to be

committed, and their lives imperilled if Nilsson.
ri is to set up a dictatorship as to what the citizens

we say the people of this Territory will be justif'

G r z E TIN G..

In compliance with the desire Of the Executive
Committee of the Western Anti Slavery Society, |
now e.assume-after on interval of nearly ten
years-tbe editorial charge Of the Anti, Slavery
Bugle.
1t has ever been to me a pleasant remembrance,
that when the paper was first issued, the friends
of the slave in the West manifested their conf
dence in me by m invitation to participate in its
editorial management and when l determined to
retire from the post they had assigned me, l was
cheered by their official declaration Of entire salts
faction with my conduct of the paper. With this
consciousness, l address myself to the perform,
ance of editorial duties. with less reluctance than
| would feel under other circumstances.
To those who were among the readers Of the
Bugle in its early days. | need only extend the
greeting of an old friend. and promise that l shall
now, as then, strive to DO faithful to the cause of
human freedom, laboring to promote the entire re'
cognition of the equal brotherhood of man.
To others, with whom l have not yet the pleasure
of an editorial acquaintance, / can only give the
assurance that it shall be my aim to maintain for
the Bugle. the character for anti,slavery fidelity i,
has over borne--recognizing no sect, or no party az
true to freedom, which in its weakness. or in iu
strength compromises the rights of any human be
ing.
As | lay no claim TO infallibility, SO | shall mt k
no promises to do that which is always for tn,
BEST, though such will be the end 1t which l shall
aim, striving to secure it by speaking the truth il
rlainness, and / trust in kindness Of spirit. Ths
criticisms, unjust, as well as just will be free
ly made, | have no reason to doubt; by the latter
/ shall hope to profit. and the former, l shall on
deavor patiently to bear.
The Bugle was established by pecuniary sacrifice
and by the individual efforts of the friends of tn
slave it has heretofore been sustained by tn
sam means, and until radical anti slavery has be
come DIS popular as it is now unpopular, it can Cd
ly be thus continued.
Though many facts have been recorded in thu
Anti.slavery history Of our nation since the frs
number of this paper was issued, showing that thu
little leaven is gradually leavening tho whole lumr
yet the need for a Disunion Anti,Slavery journal
in The West. is perhaps as great now, as it was
then and it is to be hoped that those who have
heretofore sustained the paper, will continue to
give it their support, and that others may also be
induced to thus aid in carrying forward q moral
movement which has no political party, and no
religious sect to look to for aid.
