ABOLITION HUMANTY.-The Detroit Adrertiser
which Is by no means scrupuous as regards the
rights of white men in certain cases, however much
1t may respect the asserted rights ofnegroes slaves
especially, deems the forcible abduction of the mu-
latto girl from her mistress at Detroit glorious
and praiseworthy achievement. 1t expresses the
'beliet that the girl is infinitely better off than
she would have been on cotton plantation, in a
Southern save-breeder's seraglio, of which
would have been her fate sooner or later
This girl was a waiting maid to her mistress, and
had always been accustomed to the uxuries and re-
hnemeDt OF respectable society," She, with her sis
ter, were travelling in company with her lady at
the time she was torn from them by the negroes of
Detroit and Windsor. At last accounts she was
quartered in negro hut at Windsor, Canada,
among those of class she is wholly unaccustomed
to- and, by the admission of the Adrertser in sit
uation where disgrace and ruin may be her end"
if she is not speedily removed And yet that phi
lanthropic paper processes to believe that she is
there infinitely better off than she would be at
home among her friends and relatives. 1t is in
deed strange principle that actuates the humane
eudeavOrs OF these Abolition philauthropists. 1t
demands freedom for the slave, but the price of this
liberty is almost invariably life of misery, or
eventual ruin-hardly an equivalent.
One OF the strongest arguments against slavery,
employed by the Aboitionists, is based upon the
alleged separation of families. This feature of the
institution is held up in all its horror, and many
are the sympathetic tears that have been'shed while
listening to the recital of of domestic woe,
consequent upon forced separation of brothers
ana sisters, parents and children. But for this,
slavery might be almost tolerated. Has the ADDER
ser tears to shed in behalf of this girl who has
been forcibly separated from her sister, from the
comforts of the home that she has always known,
and from all that she has loved from childhood
Is the separation less painful under the circum-
stances, than it would have been, had it occurred
under her master direction is it any less sin?
Is it any less act of violence and injustice, than
the wrestling of the boy Mortara from his parents,
which that paper has so earnestly condemned in
common with the civilized world He who preach
es, should endeavor to practice. That is indeed
questionable doctrine that makes it right for
STAKEHOLDER to do that which is wrong if done by
lavedolder-Journal Of Commerce.
AGNES ROBERTSON AND Cora WnHoRsr AT NEW
PORT.-Though it is now past midsummer, as we
have said, yet it is not the here. Yet even
out of season, the Ocean House is not without some
lovely flowers that sparkle and glitter through its
corridors. Agnes Robertson NAV be seen each
evening on the bench in pony pheton that seems
to have been specially built for her by some kind
fairy. .-.-.r
From tinny little cottage, just fitted to its fair
owners size, and nestled in a bower, may be heard
sometimes of an evening, sweet musical, low Per-
siani organ, making delighted the air around-the
organ of Cora de Wilhorst. And of morning the
owner of that sweet organ may be seen, attired as
true "hglia del reggimento," with miniature gun
on shoulder, pursuing the pastmes of the field, and
bringing down her snipe with as deadly aim as
the Oldest sportsman Times Correspondence.

ployed in the st. Louis beer breweries is nearly
$20,000,000.
