Cant rest, my boy" he said to
Gray, "til! I've punished that fellow
Murchisson for his roguery.'
And by way Of accomplishing the decd
after scene Of mutual rccriminations,
they became closer friends than ever -
The fact was, that the episod" Of Li'y's
court>hip had completely unveiled thrm
to each other, they now thoroughly un
derstood one another's little ways, and
could work we'll together
There is no real confidence until we
read the heart Of our friend.
Lily and Gray tried hard to break off
the intimacy between Murchisson and
Huson, but the latter always replied
nysteriously, leave me alone, am try
ing to convert him -
What could be said after that
And now all is told, except that James

him, and where he became at last the

Seeking Liberty in Death.

The Atlanta (Ga.) Locomotive, of
March 3Oth, relates the following, under
the caption of 81 devilish deed of q .e.
gro woman
"We learned, through a gentleman
from Penfe!d, on yesterday, that negro
woman belonging to James Lapkford, Of
that place, becoming tired of life, threw
three of her children into a well, said to
be 80 feet in depth, and then Jumped
in herself.
"Cartis Lankford wont down after
them, and found her still living, and not
seriously injured when he reached her,
she attempted to drown him, and it was
only by main force that she subdued her
and brought her up; the children are all
dead. She is confined in Jail, aud will,
no doubt, be hung as a murderess. She
assigned as reason for the rash and in.
human act, that she wished to die, and
did not wish any Of her children to sur.
vive her"

Prom the Fri-n1, Review.
-Ata -H,r'iny of he Representatives. Of the
Rniytous Society of Friends, IN Penn
sylro",n, .Nc~ Jersey, Deiownre, DC =,
lett IN M'ladriphjo, Third month
10Th, 1860.
Several articles have appeared in the
public JouruaIs within few months
past---somc in the form of Letters, dated
and written in the plain style used by
FrieudS and others is proceedings Of
meetings in which persons designated as
Friends took part (which articles seem
to sanction the use OF force to free .he
Slaves, and also to connivc at efforts to
sutvert the Government; aud as those
who are unacluain'cd with GU, primer
pies and practices may be thereby led to
imp!lcate the Society in such views aud
proceedings. We believe i, right, on be-
half Of Those we represent, to disclanl
any unity Herewith, and to repcl an i'm
putation SO unjust and injurious to the
religion Friends have always protesscd.
In compliance with the preccpts Of the
Saviour Of tic world, whicl breathe
peace on Garth and good will to men,
and command us to love our oncmies
and to do good to them that hate and
pcrsecute US, our religious Society has
stcadtastly maintained a testimony
against all wars and ightings, tumults,
violence and shedding Of blood, and
against forcible resistance to oppression,
whether Inflicted with or without color
of law; and has believed it to be duty
to live peaceably under the authorities
placed over us--to obey the laws of our
country where they do not infringe on
our religious principles; and where they
do, pas>ively and patiently TO endure the
penalties inflicted on us.
The Society Of Friends has long borne
decided testimony against holding our
fellow men in bondage, as being incom-
pat'ble with the benign spirit of the
Gospel, aud contrary to the commands of
our Lord Jesus Christ; Matt. vii. II !;
John xiii. "a, So XIV. II. II. &c: and
