THE HIGHEST PHASE OF Political ANTI
SLAVERY FEEIN0.-William Lloyd Garrison
cordially endorses the nomination of Andrew
as the republican candidate for Governor Of
Massachusetts,, because "he represents the
highest phase of anti slavery feeling as yet
developed" And what is the highest phase"
according to Garrison? me union with slave
holders" and "down with the federal constitu-
ton" as "a league with death and covenant
with hell" The Massachusetts, republicans are
getting on. The Rhode Island irrepressibles
tried one of these highest phase" John Brown

THE WESTERN DENoRAoY-Ma. SENATOR
BRIGHT ON Mr. DOUGLAS, &o.-From Ohio to
Kansas the wrangling democracy are so much
absorbed in their family quarrels that they can
afford to give nothing more than secondary
importance 70 "old Abe Lincoln" Between
the followers of Mr.. Breckenridge and the disci-
pies of Mr.. Douglas, there is Just that harmony
existing which prevails at the high carnival Of
the belligerent factions Of Denny brook fair.
For instance, Mr. Senator Bright of INDIA,
in one Of his campaign speeches, declares that
the Breckenridge men "do not 10 be
written down by newspaper e. tor nor SIAN
dered down nor do the I'D u be bullied
down !" that I'VE do not intend, under the cry
of disorganizatisn, to have Stephen A Douglas
and his cohorts crammed down our threats,
nolens volens y that we do not intend that the
old radical true democracy shall be placed In
the position Of ga bucket tied to . dogs tail, to
be dragged through the mud wherever the dog
may choose to run"
A corresponding spirit Of brotherly love Is
manifested on the other side, and TRAITORS"
'bolters," "disunionists," and such like COM
plimentary terms. are the daily express
sions of our Western Douglas journals
and orators against the Breckenridge
faction. OF course, under this condi-
ton of things, "old Abe viii make clean
sweep of the great West The Vermont and
Maine elections have settled the question for
the East, and the only living chance for the de-
feat Of Lincoln lies in the three Central States
of Pennsylvania, New jersey and New York.
Indeed, from the present complexion Of the con-
test In the first two of these States, we may say
that the whole weight Of the battle is thrown
upon New York. Here we have the means
and the men for the work, but as Dean Rich.
mond has constituted himself the chief engineer
we cannot be very enthusiastic, for was he not
the dictator of the balance of power at Charles
ton and at Baltimore!

PEONIsM IN MEXICO.

4 correspondent of the Toronto Leader writing
from Mexico, gives an interesting account of the
system of "peonism," or slavery, in force in that
country. lie says:
1. is generally believed out of Mexico, that
when Mexico achieved her independence she be-
came free country and that slavery was abol-
ished. This not the case. Tho only change
that was made being, that no one could be forci-
bly, taken as a slave unless he owed a which
be either could not would not pay. In such
cases the debtor could be taken by the creditor
and made to labor for him for an allowance oil
food ecarcoly sufficient to maintain existence, and
for certain amount Of wages less actually than
was required to pay church dues The poor crea-
ture was not given any clothes nor allowed any
pittance to buy tobacco other (considered) ne
cessities. So be (or she) soon had to borrow more
till as last the party had rretrievably sold HIM
self that he remained slave for life. II he should
be taken sick, the doctors bill, with extortionate
interest is added to his flood rnoney-the medical
man, if be be Mexican, often readily signing a
receipt for several times the amount be has re-
ceved. free man requiring temporary ad-
vance, and having no other property, is obliged
to palcn either himself or some Of his children, to
raise the required amount The poor child thus
pawned is necessited to add 10 his liabilities IL
order to furnish himself with clothes, and seldom
does one thus disposed of by his parent become a
free agent again.
Instances occur every day where men wishing
to marry, but not having the $25 to pay the poor
clergy, have to seek party willing to take them
in pawn for that amount which ewells to q
greater; and cases are by no means rare where
children have to be pawned, and made eternal
slaves, to pay the Church for performing the gen
eral rites over dead parenta As gambling is
lawful here, should party lose more than be can
pay at the gaming table or at cock fight, he is
taken before the Alcade and pawned to whoever
will advance the funds. A wife can pawn herself;
and thus leave her home and become the property
Of another. Such is liberty in free, independent
and Christian Mexico
The peon is sold by the law, his parent, or by
himself; should he not like his employer he can
change him, If he can find any party to stake the
required amount on his head. But sometimes thit
is difficult matter, owners Of poems do not like
thus to encourage insubordauon among each 9th
ers slaves. The children may lie pNwued to at
many different parties as there are children. The
Church has set a high price upon every rie-$z
for christening poems child, S25 for marrying it
and seven dollars for burying it.

From the Canton, (tnl, Register, Oct %.
MORE HANGING IN TEXAS-A NORTHERN
MAN AND WOMAN HUNG.

The reader will remember that few weeks
since, we stated, on the authority of a letter re-
ceived at Fairview, that DR.. Shreeves and Mr..
Foster with their families, have been warned by
the ruffans who hold sway in Texas to leave that
State, and we're making preparations to return to
Illinois. On Thursday last, Mr.. Wm. Bybee, a
resident of Texas, well known to many Of our Cit
zens a dealer in cattle and horses arrived from
that State, and brought to the friends at Fa;rview
the melancholy intelligence that DIR. Shreevos and
Mrs. Foster had fallen victims to the spirit of out
rage which runs riot in Texas.
The two families, it seems, had complied with
the ruthless command expelliug them from their
homes, and were on their way towards this State,
when they were overtaken by their prosecutors,
aud DR.. Shreeves and Mrs. Foster summarily Sc
cured and hung to q tree. Mr. Foster and the re-
mainder of the two families escaped.
We get the news from DR.. Shreeves of Fairview,
nephew Of tie Dr.. Shltc,es ttote IeferIed to,
who has no doubt as to it's authenticity. He says
Mr.. bee was friend and neighbor of his
uncle's, and an acquaintance of fifteen years
standing.
No letters have been received from DR.. Shreeves
or Mr.. Foster for eight weeks, by their friends at
Fairvew, circumstance Of fearful portent, as
heretofore they have been prompt correspondents.
At no previous time have they permitted letters to
remain so long unanswered.
In our sympathy for the afflicted friends of
these martyrs to the cause of free labor, we have
no disposition to bestow upon the authors OF This
enormous crime, those denunciations which their
guilt deserves Vengeance is mine," saith the
Lord, and these ruffian murderers cannot escape
the maledcton which made Cain wanderer and
an outcast upon the earth.
We will remark,by way of explanation, that
Dr.. Shreeves was not only not an abolitonist, but
we are informed by his connections OF Fairview,
was in favor of Slavery. and was preparing 10
make investments in negroes. When he left this
State he was Douglas man. The only ground
for disturbing him was his being Northern man
and coming from whore free white labor is re
spected.

Rescue in Syracuse.
In justifying and applaudiug the Rescue of Jer-
ry, we do not assume independence of the States
or of the Confederacy to which State belongs,
but only declare that neither the State, nor the
conlederacy is independent Of God, independent
of the obligation that is upon all men, "to do
Justly, love mercy, and walk humby;" and that
neither the State nor the Confederacy can release
us indivi lualy from our allegiance to the Lap Of
the Most High
In celebrating now as we have done from year
to year, the Rescue of Jerry, we do not mean, we
have never meant to countenance our fellow citi-
zens in disturbing the peace violating the good
der of Society, but TO manifest the respect that is
due to those who, on the lst " October, 1851
generously, at great hazard to ,hemselves snatch
ed poor fellow being from the grasp OF mean
and cruel despotism. We have never BY this cee-
bration INTENDED, we do not now intend, to insult
the Chief Magistrate or the Legislature Of these
United States but to admonish them that even
they cannot, with impunity, Get God at defiance
and may not shall not compel US to insult him.
Cod is Ruler of Rulers, Governor of Governors,
King of Kings. The mightest nation, not less
than the lowliest individual, is bound TO oGey
Him. The lOwliesL individual is to be justified in
setting at naught the enactment of the mighticst
nation, if it violates the eternal principles Of
righteousness and mercy.
The frst the greatest of all commandments is
Thou shal; love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy mind. and with oil thy
strength And the second is like unto it, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thysel". On these two
commandments hang, from them de2end-that is
with them must be consistent all laws that impose
any obligation upon men all laws that can be in
uocently obeyeG. Only such laws as may be de-
duced from both or one Of these commandments
have any divine authority.
1t used to be claimed and oil allowed throughout
Christendom, as well as hea.hendOm, that Kings
reigned by divine right, and that subjects were
bound in all things, to obey them as tho vlcege'
rents Of the Almighty. But that assumption has
subsided in every part of the Christian world
and in our country it is utterly repudiated II
was laid down by the founders of our Republic as
a fundamental principle, that all the powers OF q
Just civil government are derived from, must have
been delegated by the governed. Now, the gov
erned cannot commit to their officials any right
any authority, which they do not themselves pos
sess. They possess no right they have no per
mission, to disObey any of the commandments o
God. Therefore the government cannot derive
from them any authority to require any unrigh1
eous act of them.
This proposition, fellow citizens, will commend
itself to you all the as Dcontrovertably true
when you consider the significant fact, that tines
two great commandments, of which we are speak
ing, were laid upon man as an indiUidaal, not q
a constituent Of the body polite, or as party t
any civil compact, but as m individual a bsinl

"But this was to be my last trip in the blood

before it was discovered that our registering crew
had neglected to change tho sea water, which had
served as our ballast for fresh water in Africa.
1t was decided TO allow the slaves half gill, anC

worse than death to the blacks. Our cargo had
been slowed closer than l ever slaves slowed
before or since. Those furthest from the gratings

time, at least a hundred men and women were
shackled to dead partners. The dead were not
thrown overheard, nor the living served with wa

be reached where they lay. AT last Capt. Ruiz
ordered the matches down. and swOre he would
