LETTER FROM PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA, March 26Als59.
1t is not easy for one who has never been in the
Vest, nor seen Western life to decide what, out
of Anti.Slavery, will be interesting to the
readers Of such a paper as the Bugle. And then
so far as Anti Slavery is concerned-are you not
far in advance Of usi There is no denying the
TACT that we are very far behind most North
ern states, in q genuine, healthy. and wide spread
opposition to slavery. This is not attributable.
however. to q want Of zeal on the part Of the Alb.
olitionists Of this State compared with other States.
In proportion tc their number and qualifications
they do as much US can reasonably be expected
Of them. The causes which have prevented their
genuine anti'slsvery growth-for there has been o
growth Of some sort-must be looked for in q diff
ferent direction. 1t has never been sufficiently
considered, that there has always prevailed in
Pennsylvania an idea, whether true or false, tina,
she possesses interests whose prosperity depends
upon the fostering care Of the Federal Govern,
ment. Her politicians, and many of those among
the people who are not politicians. have alwaJs
been willing to yield their Anti Slavery cokvic,
tons. for the sake Of securing protection to these
interests. OF course they have always been de.
ceivsd. Is they deserve to be. But the repeated
deception does not seem to hass worked a cure.
Tho prospects are that in the neat canvas, the
question Of Freedom or Slavery. will be made sub.
s~srvient, to that OF Tariff or no Tarig. Another

TO exoneraie him by acknowledging the letter as

not privy to its publication. The citizens then
turned their wrath upon Der, and she was peremp.
torily ordered to leave the place in AZ hours. The
lady pleaded for more time on behalf Of her sick
daughter, but the citizens Of Akin knew no such
humanity. She asked for liberty to remain until
her husband could arrive to escort het and her sick
child. But the citizens Of Akin knew nothing Of
gallantry or courtesy. The order was imperative,
in spite Of the earnest pleading Of the woman,
wife and mother. NJr was this all. The landlord
of the hotel-would that we knew the monsters

THE TRIAL OF THE THIRTY SEVEN

citizens of Lorain indicted fJr ~rescuing and aid
ing in the rescue Of the alledgcd slave John Price,
has. at the urgent request of the prosecuting At
torney, been PUT over to April 5tb. The adjourn.
ment has cost the defence considerable inconye
nience, and is much regretted by them.-To say
nothing of other considerations, they do not rel.
ish tho suspense to which the delay subjects them.
If they are to be punished, they wish to know it,
and to be through with what is before them
Meanwhile they are perfecting the plan of their
defence. Expert lawyers give them cheerful aid,
and it will be singular if they do not 20 into court
with their case we'll made.
The jury which is to try tho first case is already
struck, and is geographically. and, so far as We
can learn, politically a singularity. Gathered
from the northern half of Ohio, it exhibits out Of
the sixteen names on the panel, only one from III.
Reserve. Taken from q district which numbers
tens of thousands of anti.slavery men, and which
is. by an overwhelming majority, Republican in
politics, it has, go far al We have ascertained, nei
her an AbolitioniSt nor a Republican on its lisf.-
We will not yet say that justice is to be Knocked
on the trial. We will say, however, that the pres
ent appearance is that such wili be tho fact.
We have net before informed our readers that
the Grand Jury of Lorain county has indicted the
protested owners attorney, Jennings, and the off
cials Lowe, Davis and Marshall, who arrested
Price. for Kidnapping. The bill of indictment was
found by the unanimous vote of q jury, two mem.
bers of which were Democrats. The penalty for
the offence charged, is Imprisonment in the peni.
tertiary for not less than three years. Lawyers
of high standing, to whom the case has been sub.
mi,ted, say that the testimony is ample for the con-
viction Of the indicted.
We think it probable that, before these pena
and State prosecutions are ended, i. will be def
