ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE.
QUAKERISM IN INDIANA.
Pfa Robixbo:: Xot five mile, from here, a
monthly meeting, culled Snrinjifiold. cn.no to
, .... . . , ., i
(he conclusion that they wcro not beiirit.g a Juitli-
Jul testimony ngainM slnvcry, nnd nccordincjy nnt
up to the quarterly meeting n negative answer to
their query relative to shivery.
,
The quarterly meeting (at Milton) changed tho
.newer to nil affirnintioii, nnd ;cnt it up (otho venr-
f
ly meeting all right.
Thus do the Friends onswer tlmt nnd all other'
quorics, with ns inut h truth and no more. If vot-j
Ing for slaveholders, warriors nnd drunkards, elos-:
ing.heirhou.es against all teacher, of righ teou, '
" , . .. . ... . h .
res uoing an iney enn in their meet.ngs una out
of their meetings to baffle all reforms, and stigma-
til nnd carrienttiro reformer, if doinu these ihinirs ;
is bearing a faithful testimony against wur.slavcry
. . - . . - " "i
and intemperance, then do they hear such tcotiuio
iy. In Indiana tho mass of them voted for Taj lor,
and in Way no Co. they wcro warm for Samuel Par
ker for Congress, tho' ho lauded every part of the
Fugitive Slave Law, and went ns far us tho Viiio.i
Safoty Committee in his devotion to the Union nnd
slavery. In the Quaker Co. of Wayuo, too, will.
Quaker meeting house, scnlteicd all ever it, the
liith Art. of our now eoiisiilulion received a large
majority about as large ns in any county in the
Stato. Quaker, opposition to that inhuman enact
ment was not known in Indiana, If they had any,
they kept it to themselves.
One of their fcnmlu preachers, by tho name ol
Clark, not long since, was noticing a paper that had
formerly, when she had know., it, been all whig,
hut had chungod to ho mostly a temperance pupor.
Mie deprecated tho change frcin whiggery to "teui
pcrnneo trash." Said "Iho advocates of temper
ance were doing n.oro harm than the liquor sell-
Right bore at Economy, tho church hugs in full
membership, umlealt triti, a regular liquor 'seller.
Out tho worUllintJt Und him $110 for his pious abom
inations. This meek nnd lowly (?) society, some
months ago, refused to let Thomas K rosier of Iowa,
an orthodox preacher, preach in thoirsiVugoguc.
The only reason they could have for so doing was,
without doubt, that he is an abolitionist.
As lor the Indiana yearly meetings of both or
ders, they aro ever faithful in heaping abuse nnd
falsehood on nil reforms und reformers. Will some
one lot tho world know whut good tho sects are do
ing T No, not yet. Doing good is not yet popular.
As yet they want the world to know that humanilij I
is no Dart of their creed. When auti-slavcrv. teni-
perouec, icaco, and all Iho oilier lungiblo move
ments against the evils of society bocoino popular,
then Quakerism, Methodism, and ull other .'
will be construud to have humanity for their basis.
The churches then will claim to buvo doiio the
work,
, Hut InfuhU will have to labor lung and faithful
ly before this great good work is accomplished. 1
Usa tho term Infidel because it is tho term applied
to all workers of righteousness, by religionists. 1
rare not what niimo reformers go by, so thcie is an
understanding, and as infidelity new means human
ity, I accept the appellation. Christianity, as de
fined by tho American Church, means all that is
ruinous and crushing to man ; and Infidelity, as
defined by the same tribuuul, means practical good
ness. .
Christianity sets ifp sects, governments, days and
books above man, ami sacrifices him to sustain
them. Infidelity exalts man alrove books, orgauix"
ations, days aud all other things on curth, and w ill
labor to overthrow every thing, no matter how sacred
it may lie held, w hich hinders tho full, harmonious
development and progression of all men and all
women.
The name Christianity is held sacred and veuor
able by the mas of the Amoricuu people, nnd re
formers held on to the term for a long time, urging
that Christianity consisted in doing good.
But the almighty church overruled us, and decid
ed war, slavery, tho gallows, and other enormities
ito accord with Christianity, and tho nation respon
ded amen.
She then searched the w hole vocabulary of the
English language to find the most loathsome, hated
word to designate those who show their faith by
their works, and Infidel was the one sho choso.
The name Infidel does not fit those it is applied
to. Its meaning will have to bo changed before it
will represent thorn fairly. The term Christian
would suit bettor, for they imitate the ciamplo ol
.Christ in going about doing good, while those who
bear the name christian do not merit it, for tho
most of them reject good works as being no part of
their religion. Indeed, the church, as a general
thing, does not seem interested in having the world
any bettertl.au it is. Saying nothing about the
indifference of the pulpit aud of the dillbrciit evan
gelical assemblies towurds the huiniiiiitiiry move
ments of the day. Do nothing is a fundamental
principle in the evangelical creed. The fifth art.
of the oreed, put forth by the World's Evangelical
Alliance, declares that the siuuer it justified by
tsith mlon. The Methodist discipline says the
same. Martin Luther left the book of Juines out
f bit translation of the Bible, because it contra
4otd Paul, and demanded works to prove faith.
I ha asked what the dure it good for. I would
' ask what it religioa ia worth f
:

" In a word you bclicvo that civil government hits
no other offico than to protect life and property."
Iu tho next breath ho intimates tlmt iiu man
could receive the vote of Liberty men, unless ho
was pledged to support the Maine Liquor Luw, a
law which authorizes men to destroy tho property
of their neighbors.
Friend Smith seems to forget that pcoplo would
treat the Maino Law just as ho does tho fugitive
slave law, and it would at some tint) cause them to
turn a ccaf car tu his temporuueo lectures.

REMARKABLE FAITH IN PROVIDENCE.
The Hartford Religious Herald, commenting up
on tho resolutions of tho Synod of Now York mid
Now Jersey, which we published last week, hits
them off finely, as follows:
At tho recent meeting of tho New School Synod
of New York and New Jersey, tho subject ol sla
very came up for discussion ; and a very proper
subject it w as, seeing that a large portion of the
New School Proshyteriun church are involved in
the sin of sluvuholding. After prolonged del ale
and no small excitement, and w hen some half a
doien resolutions had been ottered und proved un
satisfactory, a vote was nually passed, Uoclaring
that tho wholo subject wus submitted tu Divino
Providence, and ought not to be horeafter agitated
iu any wny iu the .judicatories of tho church! Did
our readois ever meet with so submissive a spirit
und such a note-worthy mnuifestaiiti. of confidence
in uod 7 iney were so coiuiin tlmt voa wouia ao
what was wise and right with relurenco to slavery,
and that in respect lo lime, measures and instru
mentalities, that they wore willing to trust it w hol
ly to him wiihout further interltuence on choir
o&rt ! Indeed they woro anxious that non of their
co-religlonisU should disturb the operation of i'ro-
viuODce, ny untimely or unwise agiiuuon, sum
therefor frowned au awful frown upon all disposed
to tntcfa impious measure. Truly we ttnd amaied

nrul ,l0 Fugitive Sluvo Law nnd In incite
men to a breach of tl.o pence nnd to a resistance of
tho laws of their country ; thus encouraging "tren
...e "!"." nnd striking a deadly blow at tl.o integrity
TnosB who desiro to sco tl.o play of " I'nclo
Tom's Cabin," now performed nightly" at our The..-
ter, should attend to it lit once, or thcv may bo too
loto--as a report was current Inst week 'that an
ut.l.liciil inn wonli! I.n nindn .o.li.ibrntiiii.u. nf .be'
I niied Jtutes Court, (in session in this city.) for an
injunction to stop it, on tho following umong other
i?.'nnds : ,
Inst: If. is calculated to bring into disrepute the
iM,titmillll f ,uvcry . ,,, v,trio..H net. of Cm-!
gre passed to sustain it, by showing that the very j
best t'hristians are liable (wdieu slaves) to ha sold
"l.ainbles, religion an.) nil, anil w liippeU to
lcnth for adhering to their faith.
Second : It ia enleiihited to increase tho iiimil er
of abolitionists and 'fanatics," und put "kinks"
in people's heads thiisdisqii.ilirving llieni as jurors
in .lodge liinnt's Court, nod ilireelly inlci Coring
with tho administration of injustice according to
law.
Third: Il is ovidentlv designed to throw ridicule
upon tho " ISaltimoro Platforms." it.nl is a
lirecl
iiit'ruf lien of the sam in that it evidently a
itales
the question of slavery.
Fourth : It is designed to interfere with the pros
pect of pro-shivorv aspirants to the Presidency,
w herein it isaiiovident "contempt of this honorable
court."
Fifth: Its whole tendency is to encourage slaves
to run nvvny from their masters, contrary lo S. rip
lot tl.o Union
In addition to these five grounds for nn injunc
tion from tho Lowest Law Courts, ugaiiist Ibis
Higher Law Drama, it is supposed process w ill he
awarded against the actors personating il.e various
characters in tho piece, upon li e charge of hcviiig,
by precept and ex implo, encouraged the commission
oi' Iho following i Helices:
" I'nclo Tom" for advising Eliza Harris to run
away wilh her child, mid for refusing to tell " Lo
greo" where " Cassy" und " Knielino" wero secret
ed said Klir.a, Cassy and Knieline I eing ' held lo
service and labor, in one of the L'uitod States, uudcr
tho laws thereof."
"Old Aunt Chine" for ihe same ofleneo.
"Oeorgo Harris" for murder and "constructive
treason; nnd "Phineas Fletcher" for the snnie,
and for secreting "ticorce Harris." (Itisnlleged
that "Marks," "Haley" and " Lokcr" bud war
rants from a l'uitod Slates Commissioner, for the
nrrcst of certain fugitive slaves, when the hitler wns
shot.)
"Wilson," the Kentucky Quaker for aiding nnd
abetting "George Harris'1 iu milking his escape
front the divine institution.
"Gumption Cuto" as a meddling inlorloper."
(A "true bill," by the way.)
Haw these folks will luro in tho I'nited States
Court, wo can't say but presume that august tri
bunal will see that'their punishment is comuiensu
rato with llicir great offences ngntnst "law nnd

Mr. Foster, tho mnnnger, hns not yot received

Still upward and onward, unceasing to move,
And are w a not links iu this grand chain of love ?
Whence comet h this sorrow, then, whence comes

Why all this wailing these cries of dospuir?
What makes (he discord what makes the mar ?

Armed with the weapons of justice und right.
