Communications: For The Signal Of Liberty: Remember The Slav...

Mkssrs Editors: - Feeling a deop interes1 in the cause in which you are engaged, and having long deplored ihe apathy which pervadss the Church here and I fear elsewhere on this subject,I deBire to cotribute a mile for your useful paper in hope that some may be induced to remember ihcpoor slave. Dear sisters in Christ of every name, permit one who loves the cause of Christ, and ev cry one who bears hia image, although in bondage and covered with a eable skin, to speak t o you on a subject in which every christian should be interested, and if your fe elings and sympathies are not already enlisted in behalf of oursuflering fellow creatures, I entreat you in love and meekness to eonsider the subject, ana see if it is not worthy your attention. Do you ask, what can an insolated female do? "Remember those in bonds as bound with them," remember the multitude who are even now groaning under the lash of the oppressor, and that oppreasor (I blush to say) one of ou r own sex inflicting cruel puniehment, for som e trivial cause, upon the helplesa ?ictim of her tyranny. While most of that unhappy class are in heathenieh darkness, there are others who are the followers of Christ, and when "one member suffjrs, ehall not all the members suffer with it?" Shall not every cord which binds heart to heart, vibrate when such sufferinga are endured by any who bear the Christian name? Can we obey the command to love our nsigh. bor as ourselves, wbile we neglect to do all in our power to ameliorate their condition? Tho we are not caUed publicly to plead the cause of the slave, are we not required to plead with the God of the oppressed,that He would speedily appear for their deliverance, and avert the scourge of war which we have so much reason to fear on account of this Heaven daring ein? O that every one who has a heart to feel would come up to the help of the Buffering, thnt we may soon hear a ''voice vhich thrille, Let all ero free."
