Suppression OF the Slave Trade.

1t is officially reported that the
slave trade, which until the last few
years has constantly been maintained
despite the vigilance of the cruisers OF
America, Great Britain and France,
is now practically extinguished. Abo-
lition in the United States has shaken
the foundations of slavery in Cuba and
Brazil, and thus destroyed the incen-
tives which formerly kept alive this
Internal traffic The great mission of
this century seems to be to destroy IN
every Christian and civilized nation
the last relics of human bondage, aud
10 confne il hereafter to communities
debased by the barbarism which is ITS
natural parent and supporter. SIM
ultaneously the United States and
Russia, the great powers Of the new
world and the old, commenced the
noble work of emancipation. Then
friendship has never been broken, and
their mutual good will and attachment
is being strengthened by new and in
dissoluble ties, by the establishment
of direct Geographic communication
ua Behring's straits, between Wash
ington and ST Petersburg, and by the
increase Of the commerce on the Paci
fc which will result from the growtl
of our Pacific States, and the compile.
ton of the Pacific railway. Their ex-
ample has already exerted a powerful
influence upon the Courts Of Spain
and Brazil and the abolitionists of those
countries have commenced an agita
ton which cannot long be successful
ly resisted. History abounds Will
epochs in which all nations were
moved by "higher-law," which wal
only imperfectly comprehonded even
by the leaders OF antagonestic parties
The Copperheads and Conservative
who resist the completion of the grea
work commenced in this country o
establishing freedom on just and im
mutable foundations, seem incapable
of comprehending that they are vain

sistible party at home, but against TIN

West Auburn Murder.


The Lewiston journal is filled with
particulars touching the arrest of and
the statements made by Charles
Fritche, the alleged murderer of the
two women at West Auburn, Me, re-
Gently. 1t appears that his lodging
places since the commission of the
murder have been discovered, and he
was traced from one to another until
he was overtaken on the road near
Gloucester Corner, on the way to the
Lower Shakers. The account of his
arrest says:
Here it CHANGED that Deputy Keen,
who, with other officers, who was on
his track, overlook him. He was on
the plain in the woods, pushing over
the road as fast as his legs would car
ry him. Deputy X. drove by him,
having two men with him who lived
near by. He then turned his horse
suddenly, came up to the prisoner
who reeled back as though to resist
the attack, but finding resistance use
less, quietly succumbed Before the
Deputy had said word to him he be

B9g- Having been asked why the
clergymen do not talk temperance
more from the pulpit, the Albany
Journal says:
AS a general thing our clergymen
do talk temperance. Every gospel SER
won is temperance speech; and there
is scarcely one of them who does not,
through the year, deliver one or more
sermons bearing directly upon this
subject And thore is need of it, In
temperance is fearfully on the increase
Our city is full of drinking shops, Of
every grade of indecency, and it is the
imperative duty of all good citizens
lay as we'll as clerical, to preach TEN
perance, not by word only, but by eX
ample, and to hold up the hands O.
the authorities whenever. by the en-
forcement Of law, they use their power
to stay the fiery tide which Is dosolat

Reconstruction The Washington
correspondent of one of the New York
papers sends this telegram concerning
reconstruct IN and the positions of the
President and Congress-
I'VE have authority for stating that
there is no effort now being made, nor
has there been attonptedany, at recon
struchon, but that proposed by Con-
gress, or the scheme of Thad. Stevens
The President adberes strictly to the
policy laid down 10y him in his veto Of
the amendment and District Suffrage
bill, and will not be turned aside from
his determination in that regard He
does not expect anything but opposi-
ton from Congress, and looks to the
South to stand by his declarations of
the unconstitutionality of the recon
] struction movements of that body.
/ There is no desire for compromise ex-
cept with an impotent few, without in
1uence or skill. The South will not
ratify the amendment; the President is
/ immovable Congress will not bulge
IRON the demands for guarantees for
future peace and good behavior already
made
