Therefore, be 1T resolved that we, the
interested citizens of Church and State
do heartily aeknowleds and partially
express our sincere and profound ap.
probation of the inestimabIe honor con.
ferred upon our worthy, distinguished
and beloved Presiding Elder P. A. Hub
bard, and,
Whereas, we feel the more honored,
especially there being so many eligable
and we'll fitted elders outside our dis.
trict. We feel satisfied to know that
said honors have come to us because
our elder, by his superior oratorical
powers, appealed in General Councils
to your sense Of his fitness and ability.
Therefore be it resolved that we take
these means of expressing our very
highest appreciation to the Bishops for
said honors.

And the monsters Of crime on the bill

Appear to the horrorfied gaze of the
free.
The wsepings of mercy in showers are
On slavery's grim affairs, to dampen
their blaze.
The deep tones IF progress like trump

And molten free speech like lava will

Throws open the food gates OF feelings
And the swift rushing torrents make

As they leap over dams built to check
