The Meeting Of The American Anti-slavery Society In New...

{Lƒ The meeting of the American Anti-slavery Society in New York was ïtot very fully attended, nor were the proceedings of much interest. W. L. Garrison presided. A discussion on the superiority of moral over political power arose, in which Garrison assaulted Rev. C. W. Denison with the most bitter and Yindictive epithets. Abby Kelley followed in nearly the same strain. The influence of this organization appears to be on the wane. (E?5 The pressure of other mattershas prevénted us from noticing the late insurréction of the slaves in Cuba. The prisons in Matanzas were filled to overflowing with the suspected persons, and new arreste were making every day. About one in thirty were condemned to be shot. Freecolored persons have been ordered , to quit Havanna in ten days. All immediate danger is considered to be over; but such insurrections are ever inseparable from slavery. In Jamiica, insurrections took place at thirty different times, previous to emancipation.CCThe Boston Chroniclc tells a story of a Haiwaian youth, who came to this country with a Missionary, has acquired an education, has learned the carpenter's trade, has a good place to work, is a memberofan Orthodox church, but cannot get a place to board on account of his complexión What a story he wil] teil his countrymen about Christian America! {L The Editor of the Emancipator ticknöwledges himself to have been misled in his representaron that Mi;. Frelinghuysen was or had been a slavcholder. - The female referred to was a domestic of Mrs. Frelinghuysen, over whom Mr. F. had no control, nor was he at all responsible for her maintenance. She has been dead several years. We should have been more scrupulous about copying the extract, had we not known that Mr. Leavitt had resided in New Jersey, and therefore would not probably be mistaken in his statements. (t?5 The Editor of the Emancipator is giving hints to his Yankee readers to supply the English market with Northern productions. Among those which might be profitably introduced, and on which the duty is moderate, he ñames American Ice, (that of the Thames beingsofl, dingy, aud porous.) American Apples, Clocks, of brass and wood, Chairs, Hayrakes, Scythe-snaths, Scythes, &c. In England they use hay rakes, with the handles split like the tongue ofan old fashioned sled, instead of being braced by bows. (t?3 The New York Evening Post says it has been all winter talkingof a Democratie House of Representad ves at Washington, but has just discovered that there is no such body. The discovery was made by the rejection of Mc'Kay's Tariff Bill, a test measure. Glad of it, Gentlemen. We hope 5-011 will never be able to lash up your northern membersto the Slave Car, now that they have kicked against it. O!?1 The students of Harvard college have had sundry fights of late, originating in the bullying propensities of certain southern students. These bullies drew their dirks, and subsequently sent challenges to the New England students to fight duels, after the manner of the great embodiment of Whig principies. But when waited on by the ministers of the law, their chivalrous notions left them, nnd they were glad to sneak off out of their reach as best they might. Two of them have been expelled by the faculty, and one ar two more run away. Great "chivalry" that. 05 The N. Y. Reporter of the True Wesleyan says that it is an acknowledged fact that Bishop Andrew has been a slave kolder about ten years! "What hastheChurchtodo with Slavery?" {L?: Senator Tappan has been indirectlyoensured by the Senate, by a decisivo, vote, for making public the Texas Treoty andDocuments. Whatever may be thoughtof this breach of confidence, he did a good deed for his country in laying.them open to the light. ftT" The American Bible Society have made a ':grant of English Bibles and Testaments 10 the schools for young slaves in Santa Cruz." Don't be alarmed, reader, Santa Cruz is not in the United States. Oür slaves are not supplied by our Bible Societies. 05 Hon. J. Wentworth, of Chicago, says he has sent 5,000 Congressional Doouments inio his District. If each Senator and Representative should send as many, 'the number would be 1,375,000 for a session. Does not this help to explain why letter postage is so high? 03 A correspondent of the Mt. Clemens Gazette says that there were but 24 delégales to the Tyler State Convention, instead of 60, as we stated from the Freo Pre.
