and the ignorant and the bigoted may dis
pute to the last, yet the fact il established
that this globe d.,ss steadily reyolvc
around the sun in what appears to US il
limirable space. There is progress, also,
in the moral world-in arts, in sciences,
in agriculture, commerce and manutac-
lures, in government, civilization and
christianity. True as this IS, yet it r.

address from j. MILLER M'KIN, in the
Lewisburg Independent Hall, on the pre-
sent prospects and past history Of the
Anli-Slayery enterprise in this country.

agree with him in all his views, yet his
spirit is 50 amiable, aud his aim SO excel

The speaker stated that among all the
changes of this changeable world, few had
graiiiied him SO much as the prosperity so
apparent in Lcwisburg. Had he been
set down in our streets, utterly Ignorant
Of where be was, be would not have rccog-
nized the thriving town, then a small vii

pace with our literary aGvauccmcn: and
our expansion in buildings. then took
up the Declaration Of Principles, promu'-
gated by the American An'i-SIavery Soei-
ETY., at its formation in Philadelphia in
1880 The olject designed was to perfect
the work begun by our Fathers Of the

means to this end, were moral and peace
