There is one branch of the question of
slavery which Bishop Hopkins has
strangely neglected to consider. III sla-
very has benefited the black race, IL has
demoralized the whites who have been
parties thereto in ut least a correspond
ing degree. In every slave community
the doctrine of miscegenationn has
been abundantly illustrated, and the in

those moral and political evils which
have eliminated in our existing ciyn

subject to the earnest consideration OF
the Bishop, who is hopelessly afflicted
with the mania sometimes known as
negro worship" If he fails to look at
this, we fear the darkest, side of the

behalf of the Soldiers Aid Society, The
result of which more than realized the

proceeds, 1922 fully testify,
Notwithstanding the bad travelling,

we take this occasion 10 say to the
friends who were unavoidably absent,

Fairs Band was in attendance, dis
coursing sweet music, rs usual. After
playing a few patriotic airs, Rev H.
Eastman, the Methodist Clergyman OF
the place, made brief address, well
adapted to the occasion.
He gave short sketch of the origin
and progress of the Sanitary Commits
sion, and after abiding to the noble
stand taken by Vermont in the cause OF
her country, and the high position she
held at the late Fair at Washington, he
closed by giving the following beautiful
and original sentiment
"TuE STAR THAT NEvER SITS"
When on Columbia's favored strand,
Fair Freedom with her snowy hand,
Had reared her noble standard high,
And thrown her streamers TO the sky
,r,yas then Vermont, bright RISING star,
! Was seen with glories cleaning far
/ Chorus ...
Then hail, Vermont the brLhah' sVH
The star that never yet,
Was seen 10 set.
Undimned her brightest glories are
! Her banner aoated on the breeze,
Her pennon's famed the flowing seas
Her starry folds she wide unfurled,
To wave in triumph Ger the world;
n Then true Vermont, ascending star,
! q nlumed nights azure dome afar.
| Chorus
All hail, Vermont, the brilliant star
/ The star that never yet, .. ..
| Declined or set.
Undimned her brightest elories arel
She dipped her pen in gorgeous dyes,
And wrote around the vaulted skies,
That all the world might glowing, see,
"MANKIsD by NATURE ALL ARE FREE y
Then free Vermont, meridian star,
| H,4used her radiance wide and far.
Chorus:

transacted some very important bust

made of the Western Union and the Pa

are said to be advantageous to all con-

details of the plan for putting up the

is said that vessels will be prepared to

once more, that towns which are actually

of draft, and to place themselves on an

reported in the Richmond papers:
Mr.. Hall, from the Committee to see
the, Secretary sf War on the subject Of
.pafelling Yankee deserters, and ask him
to stop it, reported that he had waited
on the Secretary, who had said that it
would not do to cease paroiliag them:
that deserters were a source of weakness
to the esemy and strength to us. and
that it was an object with our govern
meht to encourage it, but that If our
government were to cenflne in Jail such
as come over to us no more would come
that it had been and still was the eff.
fort of the government to scatter these
parolled deserters as much as possible
turning some loose here, sending some
to Wilmington. and others to the Ches-
terdeld coal pits; and that if they did
net behave themselves the only thing
that could be done was to punish them
according to the offence they shouId
commit. Hang them if necessary"
