Dear and well beloved Sisters. A weighty concern coming upon many faithful ffriends at this meeting in relation to divers *Milne liberties that am too fre quently taken, by unto that walk among us and are accounted of us ; we are Willing, in the pure love of Truth which has met , °Ally visited our aced., tenderly to Cau tion and advise our firiends against, those things. which we think inconsistent with our ancient Christian testimony of plain ness in'appirel, etc., some of which wo think,,proper to particularize. A timmudest - -fasbion - oUhoop - .. ed petticoats, or the imitation of. them, either by something put into their petti- coats to mako them set full, or wearing more than is necessary, or any other luti• tation whatsoever, which wo take to be a branch springing from the same corrupt root of pride. And also that none:of our ffriends accustom themselves to wear their Owns with superfluous folds behind, but 'plain and decent ; nor: to go .without apronst,nor to wear superfluous gaiters or plaits • in . their caps or pinners, nor to wear their headedrersed high balm ; nei ther to cut or lay their hair no their fore head or temples. And thin ffriends be careful to avoid wearing striped-shoes, or red or white heel ed shoes or clogs ; or shoes trimmed with gaudy colors. Likewise, that all ffriends be careful to avoid superfluity of furniture in their hous es, and as touch as may be to refrain using gaudy flowered or striped calicoes and stuff.. And also that no ffriend usetloor Irrever ent practice of taking snuff. or handing snuffboxes one to another in Meeting.. Also that ffliends avoid the unnecessary use.of fans in meetings lest it divert the mind from the more inward and spiritual exercise which all ought to be concerned in And Mao that ffriends do not aectr4torn themselves to go with bare breasts or bare necks. There is likewise a tender concern upon our minds to recommend unto all 'friends the constant use of plain language, etc., be ing a branch of our ancient Christian tes timony, for which many of our worthy EI• dens underwent deep auffering in their day, us they likewise did because they could .not give the common salutations by bow ing and cringing the body, which we earn estly desire friends may beeareful to avoid. Aud we further tenderly advise and ex hort that all ffrienda be careful to maintain love and unity, and to watch against whis peringS and evil eurnaisings one ngainst a-` nether ; and 01 keep in humility. that noth ing be done through strife awl vain glory ; and that those who are concerned to take an oversight . over the flock, do it not as lords over God's heritage, but as servants to the churches. Dear sisters, these things we gelidly re commend to your care-and notice, in a de gree of that divine love Which bath gra• eiousiy mitnifeso .itself for thii redemp tion of a remnant from the vain conversa tion, costont and fashions .that litre in the world. that we Might be unto the Lord a clinseti generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, shorting forth the praises of Him who bath called 'us °mot darkness into his marv.ellouslighi; that we may all walk as children of the light and of tho day, is tho earnest desire of our souls.

And 'lit repelling the nut Itority of this exaMple, I repel also the trite 'argument founded on the! earlier example of England. It is ttuo that, pur, mother, country, at the peace of Utrecht, extorted from Spain the Assionto Contract securing tho, monopoly of the shire trade 'with tho Spanish Colonies, as the whole' price of all the - blood .of great victories; that she higgled at Aix la Chapelle for ttn other lease of this oxelelire traffic; and again tit the treaty of Madrid, clung to ihe • wretched piracy. It is true that in Ellis spirkthe power ,of the mother Country was prostrated to the same base ends- ; in her Americin Colonies, against iniliguant protests from our fathers.

Kim, to the usurped power of Kansas ; and this was accompanied by a manner—all his own--4uch es beat the -tyraniaal threat. Very well. Let the Senator try. 1 tall bias nor that he oannat enforce any such submission. The Senator, with the Slave Power at his back, is strong. but he is not strong enough ,for this pus e." He is bold. He shrinks from nothing. ;Like Denton, ho may cry; ol'audate 1 loujofirf taudace I" But even his audacity can not compass ibis work. The Senator cop ies the British ()Moor, who With bosstful swagger, ,said that 'Atli the hilt of his sword he *oak Cram the 'ostainp*". damn 'the thioats of the .A.merican people, -and ho will meet: risithilar failtiret. He may convulse this country with civil feud.— Like the ancient madman, he may set fire to this vast temple of Constitutional Lib erty, grander than Epherlan . dome; but he cannot enforce obedience to that tyran. ical usurpation. The Senator dreams that he can subdue the North. He disclaims the open threat, but his conduct still implies it. How lit. tie that Senator !ports himself, or the strength of,the elms° which lie persecutes lio is but a mortal man; against him is an immortal principle. With finite pow er he' wrestles with the infinite, and ho must fall. Against him are stronger bat trillions than any marshaled by mortal arm—the inbornoneradieuble, invincible sentiments of tho human heart; against him ip,na a iure , ip all her subtle forces; a painat him is HMI. Let him try to sub- due these. • '‘ Mr. Clay on tilarritryln the Terri. torlesi.• We gave a few days agent: extract from A . speoch,of Mr. Webster, to allow 'that in his opinion elavery was a local institution, and existed solely by municipal law.
