SLAVERY TO BE EXPELLED FROM
THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

The passage by the Senate, yesterday, of the
bill for the Abolition of Slavery in the District
of Columbia, is an event that will live in history.
It marks the beginning Of . new and better era
in our National existence. 1t is the first posi-
tive "onvard movement" on pathway Of pro.
grsss that leads to universal Freedom.
That our Nation Capital should have been
defled by the presence of Slavery, has sab.
jected - to the odium Of the Christian world.
That with all our loud boasting about Liberty,
We should have permitted the maa'stealer to
ply his hellish trade under the very shadow OF
the Federal Capitol, has done more than per-
haps, anything else TO ALLEVIATE from 10 the sym
pathies Of the lovers of Freedom in other lands.
No heavier stigma ever rested upon the fame 0l
q nation. No more burning disgrace ever tarn-
ished the honor of people protesting to be free.
The shame Of having 4 Slaveholding Capitol haa
been long and keenly felt BY the people Of the
Free States. But they were poverless to wipe
out the " damned spot" The Oigarchy ruled
with dsspotic sway in the White House, in the
Departments, in the Houses Of Congrss. Ever
petitions praying that the Capital might be free
