More of the Beauties of the Sc Peculiar
Institutions,

H On the 30th of December, thirty
six persons arrived in Cincinnati from
Kentucky, who have been forced to leave
that State for the crime of holding that
Slavery is sin. They were from Berea
and vicinity, Madison county, Kentucky,
where they were living sober, industri-
Gus lives. They were neighbors, and
friends, and co-adjutors, of the Rev.
JOHN G. FEE, an earnest and quiet OPP
ponent of Slavery, and delegate of the
American Missionary Union. Most of
them were men of property, and quite a
number natives of Kentucky, Tennessee,
and other Southern States. They were
orderly, law-loving citizens, men Of pie
ty and usefulness, as their prosecutors &C.
knowledged, even when driving them
from the State. But they were thought
to be dangerous to the peculiar institu-
ton, and therefore their piety, industry,
and enterprise went for naught. "Six-
ty-fve discreet, sensible men" were de-
tailed to remove them, and ten days were
given them to make preparations for de-
parture. They made application to Gov.
MAGoFFIN, of Kentucky, for protection,
but he told them that for the peace of the
State they had better leave. They did
so, and are now in Cincinnati. Thus it
has come that men who fear God and
respect the laws, who build mills, i'm
prove farms, found schools and semina-
ries, and in every way prove themselves
valuable citizens, are not to be allowed to
reside where Slavery exists, unless they
will acknowledge the justice and expe-
diency of that Infamous system. If they
entertain the sentiments of WASHINGTON,
of MADISON, of JEFFERSON, of HENRY, of
CLAY, and of all the great men of the
South, they are treated as dangerous
men and women, and are prosecuted, in
jured, and in many instances murdered.
The right to speak, to think, to read
what is desired. is a right which Slavery
cannot and will not grant, even in the
land of WAsHINGToN. And yet this is
the institution which the Democratic par
ty of this country is endeavoring to per-
petuate, to spread, to endow with increas-
ed political power. This is the system
which Senator DOUGLAS says he cares
not whether il be voted up or voted
down, and which such good Democrats
rs CHARLES O'CoNoR, of New York,
,alls wise, benefcent and just. Our
leighbor of the Civiiian calls these things
be natural results of the system, and
Gems them excusable because he thinks
hem necessary. We, too, believe they
re the natural fruits Of the institution,
ut instead of deeming them excusable,
e loath and ahhor anything that pro-
uces such fruits. We feel the digrace {
such system, and instead OF deem I
ng it worthy Of greater protection, be- r
'ause OF these concomitants, are melted
."efeoy TO greater opposition and more "
intense hate. This must be the effect IN. o
on the mind of every lover Of orr conn \
