thit the South regards itself as victorious
ittlthe past controversy, that it• not only
does` not deem the Matter settled, hut that

Bli.i*- 7 0bioletc and timid spirits as Mr.

' been demonstrated that slaveholding
•
ciety_was the hest form. of the.Soefal state.l
The ancient and modern philoiophers,
from Aristotle doWn to Jefferson, had been
wholly inistaken in their speculations as
to the true principles of government: Not
until the Divine Providence had reared a
human community in which the work
was done by the black race, and the fruits
Of it enjoyed by the white race, had-any
thing like perfection been attained by
man in his restless endeavors to improve
his condition. The institutions and man- .
ners of the . South were. the institutions
and manners provided by nature-,.herself,
the Higher 'Law of Divine' -Wisdom,
an it - was - not for than to quarrel or op
pose an authority so exalted. On the
contrary, it was the privilege and duty of
man to carry out this Higher Law, and
make it prevail wherever it could be ap
plied.
In this noble work, however, accord
ing to the fearless logic of Mr. Stephens,
the South is fatally crippledby'the want
of proper materials. You cannot- colon
* new regions unless you have men ;
you cannot make new states without peo
ple; and you cannot have people for new
slave states except they be brought from
Africa. The condition precedent of all
progress and expansion on the part of the
south, then, 6 a larger importation, of
Africans, . and Of course, the repeal of all
the silly obstacles in the way of law
Which the, general government and the
universal sentiments of humanity have
erected against the traffic in men. It is
no longer needful or politic to disouise
the fact, and the whole . South shonld
unite as one -man in the prosecution of
the evil. .
This is frank and explicit; the policy
of-the South is declared. • Such inen as•
Mr. Stephens, men of large experience
and caution, who weigh well their words,
are not apt to run after will-o'-the-wisps,
and when they state what they mean, we
may know that it has been deterthined
upon. A few of their coadjutors may re-
Ina at the course proposed, and bold back
till the indications of public sentiment
are More unequivocal; but they cannot
avert the inevitable course of things. In
the general public gatherings of the South,
also, its views - may be expressed with. a
more calculated vagueness, in Order not to
repulse, too peremptorily the. feelings of
their humble followers of the North; but
it is none the less the settled design
the southern pity, which here takes the - 1
name of thc.democratic party, to insist
upon the enactment of slave code for
the territories, and. the abolition of the
laws wLieh brand and thwartrthe slave
trade.

11.1.7..NG.=—A. curt esponclent, Who styles him
self " Veritas," inquires of us as to the
correctness of the story that as soon as .
Congress had declared the Independence
of the Colonies, on the Fourth of July,
1776, what is known as Indepemlenee
Bell' was rung. • He also wishes to' know
whether" a blue-eyed boy" stood at the
door of the Hall, and cried out, "'Tis
done ! 'tis done ! ring, graybeard ! ring 1"
as a signal for an enthusiastic old gentle
man up in the steeple to proclaim "Lib
erty throughout all the land," &C., by
ringing the bell.
In reply to - our correspondent, we will
state : that this very pretty story originat
ed with the ingenious Mr. George Lip
pard, who cut it out of whole:cloth, along'
with some other fantastical embellish
ments, which. he - got up hi the name of
history. The fact is, -that Independence
was declared in 'secret .session, and the
important fact of, the consummation of
the measure was not made known upon
the Fourth to any person outside of Con
gress. The Philadelphia papers publish
ed. on the fifth were silent upon
: the sub
ject, and the eelebra'.ion-of the event with
' the ringing of Independence Bell, &e.,

of the formal• opening of the S. S.; E.

ing papers of that day. • 'Three or four,
thousand people met the 'train at the
pot, headed by the Brass:Band and two:
military companies, and a procession was'
there formed, taking in the pass.eugers,
which paraded the principal FArects, near
ly every house but - the Democrat ofilen
being illuminatc,ii. Theprocession march
ed to the. - notels, and a speech was made
by' L. A. Mackey Esq., which was re T
sponded to by Ex. (Kansas) Gov. John
W. Geary. The Watchman .says the
town never looked so beautiful before,
and no accidents occurred.
,We wonder if they will get up a cele
bration on the arrival of the first train at
Shippen ? If they do, count us a passen
ger, if we are alive and well.
We learn that the grading on the 'Mid

that the rails on that part of the Western
Division between Erie' and Warren, are
being laid as fast as the road can be bal.

On our first page will be found a
letter from the '.'Hon." Miss. Murray,
proposing a plan for the abolition of
Slavery. If there is any position that a
person of eminence or prominence can
'place himself or herself in that decreases
our respect for that person,' it is that of
attethpting to conserve a right principle
to a wrong practice; and this equivocal
position we believe Miss MtLrray has plac
ed herself in by the letter referred. to.—
The Slavery question'ts indeed national,
but•it is only so to the extent that it is
an evil requiring the intervention of the
national government 'to -abate it. The
idea of compensating the individual for
the damages arising from the execution
of a law which prevents him from com
mitting a crime, is certainly a'queer one,
to say nothing about its impracticability.
Miss Murray may have bc'en, a good dress
ing-mud to,. the Queen—she may. have
been quite suceessful in clothing her
majesty's precious body in silks and jew
els to the taste of herself and her syco
phant courtiers ;—but we cannot adniit
that her attempt. to clothe her pro-slave
ry ideas in anti-Slavery uniform and palm
them off on the, American public as a
philanthropic measure in.respect to slave
ry, is anything Ipss.than ridiculous. Hav
ing- made herself the subject of ridicule
by favoring the evil in her account of her
journey through this conntry, she is row
endeavoring to make her breach of wo
manly delicacy more apparent by increas
ing the obloquy of her, former position.-
The Frost as a Temperance
Agent.
We have been trying ever since the
sth - of June, to find out what that awful
frost was sent for. The last Honesdale
Delit.gcrat has cleared up`that question to
our entire satisfaction. Itsays
In Fayette county in. this State, there
are twelve distilleries, Since the last
frost, • the owners have been warned .by
anonymous letters to• discontinue their
business, and leave' the grain to be con
sumed by the people, on penalty of hav
ing their buildings burned. Two like es
tanialiments in the county were lately,
destroyed wider similar - threats, - and it is
supposed this warning will be heeded."
That is good news. If -nothing less se!
- yore than a June freeze . Will convince the
people of the blighting, .poisoning, dead
ening influence of distilleries, then wel
come frosts as- the old deacon did the
bite eta rattlesnake. . • -
•
If the objector shall Say there are no
distilleries in: this county where whisky
is made ; in reply, there are underground
places where whisky is sold, and it is just
as bad to sell it when ramie,- as it is to
take thegrain when it isneeded fait read

What hi Lavery
The great crime ,#f .American Slavery
is so little understood, even by the mass
of those who Say th4y are opposed to it,
that it is necessary Vito define again. and
again the monstrous iniquity.
We do not remewber a better defini
tion or idea of Slaverythan is contained
*in thefollowing extract from the address
of Rev. T. W. -llitio.iNsor#T, at the cele
bration of the. 4th of July, at Farming
ham, Mass.. - We:commend this. dead=
hon of Slavery to
. 411 the people of this
county, and we are (certain it will induce
a large-number of them to become still
more determined in their opposition to
this"seandal of ou4 . country. Said Mr.
:
Ls. b
" The essence 44 the:idea-of liberty is
far away still from Multitudes in this com
-munity, as if - they had never heard it,
They become anti-slavery because others
do ; they swell the minority,- then they
swell the majority; and even when they
claim that they vote anti-slavery .men in
to office, they -themselves have never
grasped the principleS upon which this
truth lids. . I tallied the other day with
one of the. most gifted intellects whore I
know; a man identified - also with every
good word and work ; and,:to my amaze
ment, that man, in defining the essence
of slavery, defined! it to be one man claim
ing' and taking' the earnings of .another,
and using them for his-.own benefit, in
stead.cif using the for the benefit of the
Man who earned ;them. That was his
definition of slavtry; I fold him that
such. a
,definition- bf slavery would Make
himself a slave licilder in five years, if he
lived in a slave State and got thkehanee.
The - essence of slavery is not in taking
another man's eaEnings and using them
for your. own - goo4 ; it . is in daring to take
another man's earnini,, , s, and using thew
at all. " If.a man should go and draw
your railroad dividends, and use "them 'as
he thought best, lit Would not save him
from conviction f'or obtaining • money 'lln
d:li false - preteneei that he proves in open
court,: that ho used the, money for . your
good.- You do not want him .to take it
at all, — I he distinction between the best
slaveholder and ,ihe. - Worst is trifling, so
long as they are both slavehOlders. The
wrong is not bathe use to which the prop
erty 'Of the slave 'is put, but .in claiming
the tight to Rat all. . Once, in Italy,
a countryman breii n g-ht into the market
place a basket full of young : wolves. - Some
one bought one Of the animals, and, pay
ing the money, asked the faimpr to pick
him out a "good-riaturea" one:. "Take
which you please," said he; "they are all
wolves? (laughter and . applause). The
slaveholder is a slaveholder. Whatever
circumstances there maybe in his special
case•to make it less'. guilty 3n hire at 1,4
outset, compared vial the man who de
liberately, with ; 14ts:eyes-operi, seizes tbe
opportunity to ; commit that siri, still,' the
essence.of the Wrong is the same. 'The
invasion of the right of 'property is the
wrong; the use .yoti make of it is trifling
in comparison." . ,

A Word &opal" Independent
<Candidates an 4i County
CoOr'colionsT •
Fur the Potter .flurnal. .
Ma. :Eorrcitt.---As the
,time ' for the
meeting of- the Republican Nominating
Convention is draWing near, I. , propse to
offer a few suggestions - to the friends of
Liberty and Republicanism in this county.
The. Republican party have principles
and:uicesureS at-stake, -and most Impor
tant ones, too, - fertile interests of our coal-
mon country and humanity,
.- which ye
quire-the undivided efforts of its friends'',
iu order to Make them successful.- The
enemies of Equal : Rights, aided by inter
est, by the name of Democracy, by•igno- ,
ranee and by foreign influence, are watch ,
ing with eager eves for an Opportunity tki '
divide us. ' Shall Wesuintrthefn to do it?'
T,hat is the question. - It, requires very
little knowledge in-any one to see what
the object of the 'so-called Democracy is
in voting for Independent candidates I
taken from the Republican . ranks. - The'
object is to-Weaken and divide-t—to draw
weak-knoeddßepublican§ into their ranks. •
If this were not the case, they would as I
soon vote for a candidate regularly nomi
nated and supported by those who care'
more for the success of the great cause,',
than. for the- triumph of any individual. 1
We Say then tot.ill those who desire to
see the Republican cause triumphant,
wbo desire the downfall of the Allies of
Slavery wherever they may be, to aid in
r:eeping the 'party united, for on this a 0
most alone depends - the final triumph of
Free Labor iu our country. - .. i
When a so-called Republican- so far
forgets his duty, in his desire to secure
the spoils of office, as to sutler himself to
be the means of division in our ranks, wel
say -in the language of another, "Let hiiii
slide,"--"drop him as von would a cold
potato." If the 11 - unkers - wish to sup
port- him, why let them do it-=who cares!?
. Another Word as to the manner of vot
ing in our Conventions. • IVS they . told .
Representative IConVentiOns, the vo:es
should he taken. viva rove instead ofy
ballot, and, the vote of each represent t-•
tire published. All cavils as to delegat,...si
dodging or - Selling out will thus be silene- i
ed. y Few 'delegates will have the hardi
hood if instructed (and they always shoa i ld i
be) to vote contrary to instructions,. p - ?0-j i
vided every vote is published. Whyvia:Aso-II
li '
ing in our Conventions heretofore
- been by ballot, I cannot imagine. 'lt
gives our enemies a chance for insinnai
tions -- -which they should be deprived oi . ;
The viva , yore ballot gives the deleglite.
an. opportnnity 'to prove himself faithqd ;-
whereas, if the vote' he taken by smiret
ballot, heiis deprived of even that privi
lege. Then if our primary elections lure
Well attended and delegates properly' in,
strutted; Iwe venture the prophesy that
"all will be well."ElomEd.
