hundred and fifty lashes After receiving this cruel punishment they were about whipping his wife when he plead her case and de clared he had induced her to run away with him Upon the strength of this confession his brutal mas ter again tied him up and gave him three hundred and fifty lashes more until the blood boiled down his back and filled his shoes and strewed the earth where the yet remains

Referring to the hollow funereal display in Boston on account of the death of President Taylor Burritt's Christian Citizen justly observes The tendency of last week's pageantry was de moralizing and impious exalting ns it did the hero ism of the battle field above the heroism of Christian virtue and causing meh professedly religious to throw up their caps in honor of that which true Chris tianity abhors and condemns The demoralizing in fluences of these funeral processions in honor of a man who but for success in war would have no claim to be remembered after death cannot be measured nr estimated But we may draw a lesson from What we have seen They show how thin is the crust of that morality which we would fain call Christian when we boast of our refinement and superiority in com parison with those times ere the star shone over the manger at Bethlehem when the Prince of Pence was born They show how hollow are the pretences of society to a reverence for the highest virtues that adorn the human character Judging by acts rather than by their professions and contracting the enthusiasm which men have shown in hearing the eu logies upon a life and upon men who have fought the good fight of faith with weapons that are not carnal we cannot fail to perceive how great is the task of him who in dying would wish to enjoy the thought that some little portion of this world was wiser better and happier that he had lived in it Of the runkenness and debauchery that ruled the closing hours of the day set apart for mourning we have no room here to speak for that was not the worst feature of the pageant That worst fruit was the lesson it taught to the young and which all who saw it know already by heart that military glory is still the highest glory in the estimation of the world that greatness achieved in any other sphere pales before the greatness of a successful warrior There children fresh from the Sabbath schools and from the influences of virtuous Christian homes unlearned in tn hour all the lessons of their lives There they saw the doctrines of the New Testament dishonored arid trodden upon by those to whom they had always looked for instruction and example They saw min isters of the gospel as they marched behind or rode with the soldiers in the procession stamping the be atitudes under their feet and the parents who had taught them it was wicked to fight doing honors to a man whose fighting qualities alone commended him to their regard It will be a hard task for the friends of peace to counteract the undertow of the wave that gave us a military President but we hope that neither its difficulty nor unpopularity will deter any friend of jx ace from bearing his testimony a gainst it and tbat4ie will not neglect this oportuni ty to impress upon the minds of the children com mitted to his charge that though by deeds of blood a man may gain favor with his fellow men it is by deeds of virtue alone that he can obtain the fa vor of God and enjoy the hope of Heaven i Give 'em hell Major Sherman On i the obverse is the motto Blessed are the peaccmak ers for they shall be called the children of PRESIDENT TAYLOR South Abington July 31 1850 riend Garrison In speaking of a devoted friend of God and human ity and of her recent death you very justly ask the question What is the death of a hundred military slave holding Presidents compared to a loss like hers I think it is recorded in Holy Writ When the wick ed bear rule the people but I think the re verse is the fact as it regards the people of this nation That wicked men have ruled this nation for a long time and that the people have chosen to have it so is no longer doubted by honest men who are not so blinded by a pro slavery religion and politics that their consciences have become seared and consequent ly they are unable to discern the truth It is humiliating indeed to sec the leading papers both religious and political christianizing the name of President Taylor a man who has spent his life in theft robbery adultery and murder And what is more hypocritical and infamous is the fact that many of these very papers denounced the war with Mexico as unjust and cruel held up Gen Taylor as an enemy to God and his race for engaging in it calling him a tyrant bloodhound and proving him guilty of the vilest sins that ever cursed the human family But now usooth as he has been called to give an ac count of his and that too without giv ing the least evidence of repentance lie is a noble Christian I am prepared I have endeavored to do my The vilest pirate that ever lived could ut ter that language By their fruits ye shall know No it cannot be any real loss when tyrants die Polk Calhoun and Taylor have lately gone to their reward slavery has loot something in talent and influence but liberty nothing Tne memory of the wicked shall "When will the people of this nation learn this great truth recorded not only in Holy Writ but in the mind of every good man and woman whose highest idea is to do justice and love mercy I think we 've no reason to expect any thing from President illmore in behalf of liberty He is prob ably a Northern man with Southern and will full in with the popular cry Union and Liberty not Liberty and Union But the cause of Liberty is the cause of (rod and let us thank God and take courage remembering those in bonds as bound with I hope yen I know you will go on rebuking and reproving with all long suffering the pro slavery churches and parties of the land till the time shall come when Liberty shall be proclaimed throughout the land to all the inhabitants thereof' I sec that Daniel Webster has received his reward for his infamous speech in Congress by a seat in Pres ident Cabinet Well Judas got paid for his treachery but what did it avail him Ichabod is written on the forehead of Webster and I believe the time is coming when he will see the handwriting on the wall and tremble like Belshazzar and mar God speed the day But the mass of the neople must be converted to the truth before we can expect such men as Webster to move in the right direction They are like the vanes on the spires of our meeting houses which show which way the wind blows so they show which way the people think There is one fact which I think should rejoice every friend of liberty and progress and that is some three or four versions of Ins speech which Webster had to give before the mass of the people would swallow it He evidently did not know the progress the truth had made among the people of the North for some rears past ho being most of the time in Washington But I think he has learned more of the rising spirit of liberty in the Old Bay State since he made that speech than he had learned before for many years Yours for Liberty mid

Minch bare the Supper of our Lord The preacher took the bread and wine And preached of that repast Divine The efficient Boly and Blood The body and blood A sudden flood Of scarlet light lit up his

whom he had never heard Until the final word Had shut the gateways of the soul He ate the bread received the cup And for thcfirst timew looking up A glance: at each and all he stole And cried from custom's old control Here's to your healths good gentlemen Nodding around All startled then or the iron tongue of the death bell swung Mixed with the doomed words and saidThere to be hanged till you

but more Confused and affrighting than before as A few harsh tongues forever led The common din the chaos of noises But car could not catch what they said As when the realm of the damned rejoices On winning a soul to its will That clatter and clangor oi hateful voices Sickened and stunned the air until The dangling man was dead and still The show complete the pleasure past The solid masses loosened fast Each went his way or lagged behind As fitted best his need or mind A thief slunk off with ample spoil To ply elsewhere his daily toil Two foes who had disputed places Went forth to fight with murderous faces A baby strung its doll to a stick A mother praised the pretty trick Some children caught and "hanged a cat Some friends walked on in pleasant chat Some heavy pacpd and heavy

It sometimes seems as if the population of the free States was mainly made up of toadies and flunkies The meek ness with which they submit to the impudence and arrogance of southerners and their tools in our own midst is truly astonishing They seem to esteem it an honor to be subservient to the South as it is said Boswell would have gloried in being kicked by John son The slaveholders lately undertook to display their superior importance in the organization of the Sons of Temperance but happily the Order in New England has given them a signal rebuke They re cently undertook also as appears from statements in the Hartford Republican to carry out their exclusive spirit in Yale College and that being an institution greatly dependent on Southern money for support were successful The Phi Ueta Kappa Society were engaged in choosing an orator tor 1851 says the Republican and were likely to make choice of Hon Wm II Seward whose name some thoughtless admirers of that gentleman had introduced When his election seemed certain a illmore whig from New York rose and objected to him on the ground that he maintained extreme He was followed by Mr Gould of Georgia who sternly opposed Mr Seward and intimated (or rather threatened) the withdrawal of Southern patronage from the College if the College societies countenanced and honored such men Tins was sufficient Mr Seward was not elected And so the sneaks who compose the Phi Beta Kappa Society deprived themselves of the pleasure of listen ing to an able and powerful orator to avoid giving offence to their southern patrobs EiB Capital people of Michigan find that the abolition of the death penalty works well They have tried it for several years and in the Con vention now assembled for revising the Constitution there was nearly a unanimous opinion in favor of the law as it stands which has aoolished the gallows 1 It is gratifying to see the true philosophy and enlightened philanthropy of anti capital punishment thus demonstrated by facts A true civilisation would as sprely abolish the gibbet as a true Chris tianity would abolish that and all other heathenish practices and barbarities the teachings of to the contrary notwithstanding The gallows even now groans under the weight of the victims' the san guinary code of this State has suspended upon it here and ere long the grim monster himself must cry out to the everlasting shame of his sup porters Let them then hasten to extricate them selves from the odious position of hangmen before the humanizing of the age cause the gal lows to fail for want of or food to feed it and they alone be found in the disgraceful company of Jack HORRIBLE TRAGEDY AT TROY Troy August 21 1850 An appalling and bloody tragedy has come to light this morning at the St Charles

he was slightly ac quainted leaving as security a note purporting to be drawn by his brother Caldwell of New York This note turns out to be a forgery The deceased had led a life which was pretty sure to end disas trously The Troy Post says that he has been in the State Prison Alb Evening Journal Horrible Doings up the River Under this head the New York Post chronicles the murder and suicide at the hotel in Troy mentioned a few days since by tel egraph which was the end of a case of conjugal in fidelity on the part oi the woman and of dissipation on the part of the man They left letters to show
