Thy brother, Augustus Wattles. From the Emancipator. The True Spirit of J'rccmcu. We have not seen, in the proceedings of any of our societies, a better exhibition of the true prin ciples of liberty, in their application to the Anti Slavery cause than in the following resolutions, adopted by the Ashtabula co. A. S. Society at their annual meeting on the 4th of July. Jt will be recollected that the first proposal for a ulitiona! convention of Abolitionists came from this society. Should views equally clear and consistent, and a determination equally firm and conscientious, be found to prevail at the approaching convention, we may augur the most cheering hopes for the cause of human liberty. The resolutions were offered and supported in an able address, by the Kcv. T. S. Han is. "As it is the deliberate opinion of this Society tlmt American Slavery endangers the liberty of the free people of these United States, and that it is rooting out the very existence of the nation, as a free republicand believing that the continu ance of our free institutions depends upon, its abo ition within our jurisdiction therefore ".Resolved, That as lovers of liberty, and the friends of the oppressor and the oppressed, like the fathers of our country, we pledge our fortunes for the purpose of carrying out the sacred princi ples of the Declaration of Independence thai ft, liberty and pursuit of happiness, are the inaliena- blc rights of man. "Iiesolved, That in the exercise of our privileg es as electors, we should be governed by the whole moral principles of candidates, as constituting fit ness for office ; and that the selection of any out; principle as a test, regardless of other qualities, would be unjust to ourselves and the public. "That among the most important qualifications for office, we consider a firm and undeviai.ing at tachment to the principles contained in the De claration of Independence and repeated in the Constitutions ofour States; 'That all men. are born equally free and independent, and ha8 certain inherent and inalienable rights, among which are the enjoying and defending of life, liberty, and the pbrsuitof happiness.' "That, in our opinion, no man is qualified for office in our national or state governments, who is indifferent to, or disregards, those great and im portant principles of liberty, or who has not the moral courage to avow or sustain them as far as lie is able, or who'would not extend the blessings of freedom to all men, so far as we have the con stitutional right, or who would not use and exert his influence to redeem our nation from the dis grace of the internal slave trade." "liesolved, that those who maintain the rights of the colored man in this country, to choose the place of his location, and to use his powers of lo comotion to carry into effect such right, ate not only governed by the present principle's of philan thropy but by the expressed will of llim,'who lias made of one blood all the nations of men to dwell on the face of the earth,' which will is ex pressed in Dcut., 23, 15, 16. ' Hatliii; by Maiming. It is a very impressive section in "American Slavery as it is," which treats of the practice a lnong slaveholders, of marking their slaves by de priving them of one or more of their fore teeth, ljiit no notice is taking of another method in marking, by cutting off one or two fingers. In looking over a number of slave advertisements, lately, we have been struck by the frequency of this work, and led to conclude that so many cases of a sort of a maim quite uncommon with other labor ers, cannot he the effect of accident, his obvi ous, that in patriarchal simplicity of occupa tions prevailing in the slave republics, the loss of some linu'crs would not deteriorate the value of the properly; and as to the pain and the humilia tion of the sufferers they are only slaves. Wo present a few o the advertisements referred to, by way of specimen. In the Charleston Mercury, June 2-1, Jlr. Hen ry M. Holmes advertises : "Thirty dollars will be given for my house ser vant PETER, known by the name of Peter Geathers, who left me in the city, in March last. Said fellow is about 43 years of age, 5 feet 1 or 2 inches high, slender built, has one of his front teeth decayed, and the first joint of the little fin ger of his left hand and the one next to it cut off." The Mississippian, of June, has an advertise ment of the jailer of Hinds Co., of a negro named Tom, committed as a runaway slave. The des cription is not very clear, but reads thus : "This negro is about L0 years of age, 5 feet 7 1-2 inches high, tolerable black, and spare made, and two particular marks on his finger, and his left, hand next to his little finger, is off vp to the knuckle e joint, and also his little finger, and his right hand is off up to his knuckle. This negro stated that he ran away from his master in Lex ington, in Holmes Co., Missouri." ''Those who are a little familiar with the dialect of that country, will render it into English, as fol lows, "two particular marks, his linger cm his left hand next la his little finger is off up to the knuckle joint, and his middle finger on his right hand is off up to his knuckle." A very remarka ble accident, indeed. lb. Sekviutv Rebuked. Did those who have been educated under the influence of New-England in stitutions know how very contemptible they make themselves appear mi the eyes of the people of the south, by their fawning subserviency they would certain! v try to act a more manly part. The fol- lowing is troin an article in uie iueimoi, w imn arc attached the inr.itials of Lydia Maria Child. And here I can but recall an incident in the course of my travels, which afforded me much amusement and editic.rtiou. I spent ,m evening in New York, with a gentleman who dealt largely in .cutlery. Speaking' of his trade with the South, he said it consisted of dirks crid Bowie knives. He mentioned the annual sum paid for these in ftruments. It was immense; but 1 am afraid to name it. The next day, I stopped at Hartford, on rny way to Boston. At that place, three stran gers entered the stage. By their conversation, I soon discovered that one ot them was Deacon of a Calvenistic church in Connecticut, another a school-master from the same town, and the third from South Carolina. The Deacon soon began to speak of the climate and friendly union between the North and the South, which he hoped would always remain undisturbed. 'There never has been such an active trade, or so much good feeling, between Connecticut an5 the South a.- the.te now is,' said he. 1 There is our rijle and pistol estab lishment do what we can, we can't get hands enough to supply the Southern Market.' The schoolmaster, chimed in, with praises of Southern hospitality, politeness and generosity. I was indignant, but silent. To my surprise, the gentleman from Carolina broke out as follows : ' Sir, your estimate of Southern character differs essentially from mine. I have lived sixteen years in South Carolina. ; and have now left it, with the resolution never to live in a slave state again. You talk of generosity. I'll tell you in what it consists. The Southern gentlemen drives others with the whip to toil for iiiim He comes to Phi ladelphia, New York, and Boston, and during six months spends their earnings in making a dash among the yankees ; then he goes home to starve his niggers upon ground corn and water, the oth er six months. You may call this generosity ; but call it meanness.'. I quote his precise words. The Connecticut men scarcely opened their lips again till we reached Boston. Maine Advocate of Freedom. From tho Morning Star. DviSG TESTIMONY l'OR THE Ol'PHESSEJI. A few weeks since an esteemed member of a church in a town which 1 have visited, died in the triumphs of faith. A few of the last hours of his life were improved in giving the most solemn warnings to those who came around his dying bed, to prepare to meet Cod. He had not, When in health, said much relative to the cause of the Abolition of Sla very, though he read on the subject with attention and seemed somewhat interested. But when sinking in nature's last decay, he was mindful of the down-trodden slave. He said ;n substance, that Cod woulipcome out in judgmunt against this nation, unless they should do away this evil. In taking a professor who was much opposed to the cause of Abolition, almost into his arms, he said, 'You must humble andnot oppose this cause any more." Thus, to the praise of God, we see that he is bringing forth witnesses in favor of truth and justice in the earth, and professors who doubt the propriety of co-operating with those who are laboring for the overthrow of Slavery, had better examine themselves in their closets, and sec that they fight not against God. J. F. Texas. We have some reasons for believing that there is a concert or at least an understanding among the pro-slavery defy of the country, to prepare by cautious movements, the public mind to wel come the annexation of Texas to this country, as a measure of relief from the evils of slavery. A distinguished doctor of divinity in the country, an eloquent and accredited advocate of Colonization, who does not think it any body's duty to " care" for a person's being-a slave delivered an elaborate oration on the 4th in favor of Colonization, in which he argued that it was importent to the peace of this country that Texas should be annexed to the Union, for the relief of the slaveholding states as a place to dispose of their surplus slaves until such lime as the colonies on the coast of Africa shall bo prepared to receive the whole negro popu lation of this country. He said that it would des troy the colonies to send such large numbers to them now, and therefore it is necessary we, should have lexas as a temporary relief from the pres sure. Some of his hearers thought it vastly pat riotic and a very pious scheme. No doubt Mr. Henry Clay would so regard it. Any thing to keep people talking about removing slavery and prevent their acting toward it. Eman. The. Iiitei'-NationnI Convention. The Leeds (Eng.) Mercury, of June 22, says, " A proposition has been made from the united States, for holding in London next year a Cene- ral Anti-Slavery 'C onvention. It has met with the approbation of the Committee of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, and is likely to be carried into effect gkeati.v to the ahvan TA'iK of the cause of freedom throughout the woki.d." No doubt of it. Let the abolitionists be turned to this measure, as one of very great inter est and promise. lb. A Fnct for the Emancipator. A northern lady not acquainted with iho inter esting details of the patriarchal institution, visi ted a southern city. While there she. was invit ed to meet some friends at the house of a wealthy slaveholder, A child, but slightly tinged with the hated hue, was playing on a piazza, whose strik ing resemblance to the lord of the mansion arrest ed the lady's attention, and caused the almost in- .oluntary exclamation, "how much that ciiuu looks like Mr. The ladies and irentlemcn looked blank, and our northerner reaii in their embarrassed looks and total silence, that she had committed some breach of etiquette. What it was she knew not until taken aside by one of the party and informed, that "southern gentlemen thought little of having two sets of children that indeed it was quite common, &c. &c." Quite common we know, but not common e nough, it seems, lobe talked of in genteel society even there. This is a feature of the institution oneerning which these very sensnive persons keep their own counsel. Oh, shame, where is thy blush ?" M. The Cincinnati JHobncrnts of 1836, A letter from Cincinnati, date July 17, says, "Yesterday concluded the last case against the Cincinnati mob of July, lb-jo. 1 here was no excitement on cither, side. A calm ascertainment of damages was followed by a "submission', with out argument, to the jury, who in a little while rendered a verdict in favor of the Plaintiff (Pugh, the printer) of $1500.. This covers the whole claim. I oor letiows, tney nave lost their money, and public sympathy to boot." The only remaining subject of regret, so far as justice is concerned, is that the weight of both shame and loss could not, by some means, be made to fall on the leaders of the "Market-house meet ing," the instigators and real authors of the mob that destroyed the Anti-Slavery office and Philan thropist press. Bui although the. "gentlemen of property and standing" thus escape the penalty of the law which falls upon their deluded tools,, the people will think. How Abolition Destroys the Churches. At the Anti-Slavery Prayer Meeting lately held a moti Baptists in New York, it was stated that the North Beriah Baptist Church (bro. Dunlap's) has ever been avowedly anti-slavery from its ori gin. When that body of believers met to wor- ship God in old loft, one of their first acts was to pa-s a solemn vote to hold no communion with slaveholders. At that time, slavery existed in the Stale and city of N. York. And yetstrange ns it may sound to some, the little church'was not des troyed, but lias continued to prosper greatly to this day! Her anti-slavery action has always been the same, and was at 'one time blessed 'of God, in a great degree, to the removal of the last vestige of New York' slavery from the churches in the city. God grant that every Baptist Church in the laud ninv speedily go and do likewise. Rificctor. ' C. V. D. Tr.M I'Et?. It 'may perhaps create a smile, that John (.Juincy Adams should be the source of an admonition to the iibolitionists on the score of the temper with which they address the slaveholders. But so it is, and the admonitioiushould be, taken in good part. There has been, and will probably be, still more of not only needless but harmful as perity. Pictures of slaveholding character will be held up to the public gaze, in which the sitters will riol-rcrognize their likenesses. This is bad policy in every point of view. But there is policy that is worse, It is a suppression of the natural, healthy feeling of abhorrence, which the real facts of slavery do and ought to produce in every sound heart. Lot it be observed that the soft hypocrit ical way of treating the subject, that which puts forward a very good tmnper, and not much else, has been tried these fifty years, and failed ! An exercise of moral and political power is now de manded, which may easily be mistaken for bad temper ; but it must not be abandoned for all that. From1 the United Slates Gazette Triumph of American Mechanics. It is with great pleasure that we extract from the London Morning Journal of June 1st, the fol lowing voluntary tribute to the. skill of our me chanics. -In addition, we arc informed that the directors of the G rand Junction Company placed on their railway the best of their English locomo motivos out of fifty-two, to compete with. Mr. Norris's. The latter, however, notwithstanding her greatly inferior weight, was victorious. The English locomotive weighed 15 tons, with 12 inch cylenders, IS inch stroke, and 5 feet drv- png wheels. The burthen in gross was 120 tons. American Locomotive Kngine. It will be recollected that a contract has been entered into between the Birmingham and Glou cester Bailway company and Mr. Norris, of Phi ladelphia, U. S., for the supply of locomotives for the Gloucester Railway. The contract was con ditionally made, on the first engine manufactured by Mr. N. performing certain work agreed upon. As much interest has been felt in this country with reference to the contract, as some doubts were entertained as to the correctness of the rep resentations made respecting these engines, we have pleasure in giving the following particulars as to the engine sent over to this country by Mr. Norris, and the work it has actually performed on the Grand Junction liaihvay, in conformity to the agreement to which we have alluded. The England weighs about 8 tons, without wa ter or fuel ; she is built much lower and smaller than the engines commonly in use here, and has six wheels, the driving pair being four feel in di ameter. Thrj cylinders are ten and a half inch es in diameter, and are enclosed in proper cases to prevent radiation stroke IS inches. The ma chinery is of the simplest construction, and con sists of a much smaller number of parts than we have been accustomed to see. The cylinders are placed on the outside of the framework, which al lows the advantage of a straight axle ; and the general appearance of the engine more nearly re sembles that of the old Rocket engine than any with which 'we are acquainted. The engine is got up in a most superior style, and is finished, e ven to the most minute particular, in a very beau tiful and workmanlike manner, every part bavins been executed with perfect accuracy, by means of self-acting machinery. As a proof, indeed, of the mathematical correctness of the work, we may mention - that the steam-tight joints are formed simply by the bringing into contact of metallic sur faces ; the workmanship of which is so true, as entirely to supersede the necessity of packing of any kind. The boiler is similar to those used in engines manufactured in this country, but it con tains only seventy-eight tubes, instead of from 100 to 140, the number commonly used in those on our railways ; and the consumption of fuel, com pared with the work performed, is, we understand, very small. The task- undertaken to be pciformcd by the England was to run from Birmingham to War rington, fourteen journeys each way, carrying 100 tons in the gross, and performing the distance, eighty miles, at the rate of twenty miles per hour, which the engine has accomplished considerably within the specified time of four hours; the aver age time having been about 3 hours f)0 minutes, or the actual running time, without stoppages, from 3 h. 9 mins.. to 3 h. 10 in ins. On one oc casion, it is stated that the engine brought into Birmingham the enormous load of 120 tons, draw ing it up the' inclined planes without any assist ance ; and on no occasion has it failed to perform the required duly, nor has even the least derange ment of . any part of the machinery taken place. It should also be mentioned, that the various parts were never put together until its arrival in this country, when they were first fitted at Liverpool, the day previous to making a trip; nor has a tool been applied to the engine since she was first set up. We understand the conditional order to Mr. Norris for ten engines, of similar capability, has been confirmed. Horrid Muriucii. We learn from ihe Fred ricksburg Herald that an inquest has been held on the JOtli hist., on the body of William Riehersou, a lad about 11 years old, which was found, bear ing marks of violence, enclosed in a sack-bag, at the bottom of a mill-pond in that county.. The jury returned a verdict of murder against two in dividuals, one of. whom is the mother of Ihe hoy,) committed on or about the 19th "ultimo. The parties charged with the eed are in prison. A correspondent of the Herald gives a most frightful picture of the neighborhood where this murder occurred. He says : " Thcre,yoa will find a brother living in inces tuous coucubinage with his sister and the sister with her brother ; there, iho avowed adulterer and adultress; there, the theif and the receiver of stolen goods; there, the unblushing violator of the tippling law. exchanging with our slave pop ulation the poisoning and corrupting draught for the purloined hard earnings of the farmer ; there, the infant daughter imbibing the corrupt examples of her depraved mother, or the profligate son giving promotion to the gal- wtiramn o v ; i & ei ft e w s From the Pittsburg Witness.

Governor Buchanan writes home a flattering account, a bnunding in generalities, of the condition of the colonies, while the Liberia Ileruhl, going somewhat into particu lars, gives the oilier side of the picture, which cannot at best he called go bright. We are assured by a 'Coloniza tion friend, that Governor Buchanan's, statements may bo implicitly relied upon, as his vei aciiy is unquestionable. We hope it is so for, in that event, by-ainl-by we may expect that lie will undeceive that portion of theAmoii-. can peoplo who have been led, from the mendacious state ments of his predecessors, to believe the condition and prospects of the colonies as every thing that could be de sired, or hoped fir, 'on this side of lli,i heavenly Canaan'.' We make a few extracts from the Liberia Herald, from which it will he seen (hat the same proees., of Christiani '.ation is going on in Africathat has been so hilly exhib ited in our own land under the influences of Coloni.l.tion.

We have heard with deep regret that Jenkins has again raised the honp of war. Pi ince of Trade Town, and Grnndo, of New Scad, are preparing for war. Each is threatening the other with an invasion of his territory. We have just heard, by an arrival from Little Bassa, -that the natives have made an attack on the Sinon settle ment. Three Americans were reported killed, and seven wounded. v'- Captain Murray, of the English brig , is landing goods nt Little Bassa, and advancing the price of every ar ticle of trade one hundred percent. Captain Murray shoud be informed of his trespass on the territory "of this colony and warned to desist. The territory of Little Bassa is fair ly and honorably the property of this colony, and he hat no right to the commerce, unless under the regulations es tablished by our commercial laws. News has just arrived, that his Excellency, Governor Buchanan, is just, recovering from an alarming illness. This accounts for the detention of the Saluda, Captain Waters, who left this fifteen days ago to bring His Excel lency up to this place.

Mr. Stewart ,?sas a native of Petersburg, Va.; emigrated to this country in the ship Cyrus in 1S24, and arrived here on the 1 2t.h February. Sir. Stewart has successively filled many important cilices in the Colony, having -been, at a former period, a member of the Legislature, and for many years one of the Justices of the Colony. We were informed, w hile at l'almas, that while the Em peror, Captrin Lawlin, was lying at ft. -Andrews Bay, a plot as concocted among some of the seamen to seize the ship and run off with her. This act of base treachery was detected on the day previously designated for its per petration. The Captain, immediately after the fact was communicated to him, proceeded a short distance down the coast, where a number of friendly natives very oppor tunely coining on board, he was enabled to secure the vil lains. They are in prison at Cape Coast, to be sent to A mcrica for trial. Intelligence from Tiinidid. (Extract from the "Colonial Journal.") "We know, too, of a property in the same Island (Trin idad) which Was sold under the apprenticeship 'system, and of course with the advantage of the laboi attached to it, for $30,000; that has been sold again since the com plete emancipation for ijj'bo.OOO ; and we have it from good authority, that during the Christmas holidays, the negroes who visited the Port of Spain from the country, made their purchases of every kind so freely, that the stores have nev er been known to be so bare as when the hist packet sail ed." We learn tlutt a gentleman now in this city from Trini dad, who is a member of the Legislative Crjuneil, slates that laborers can readily earn one dollar per day, and that the planters can well atlnrd to pav tlum at that rate. There is a deficiency of laborers, owing to a portion of the colored population withdrawing from agiicuiture to engage in trade, &c., thus forming since the Emancipation Act, a middling and growing class in society, which hail never existed previously on the Island. Our informant states that it is easy to see that this change of things will ultimately be of great service to Trinidad not only, but to the United Slates. A greater quantity of land will be put under cul tivation (not more than one tenth being at present in that slate,) the number of consumers will be much increased, and competition among the laboring and middling classes .will promote tho prosperity i'f the island. As Trinidad has been considered an "Experiment. Island," both by the Hi ilish Government and others, the success or failure of emancipation there will probably materially alien the quean lion of slavery in other parts of the world. If on full trial it is demonstrated that emancipation promotes tl! peace, welfare and prosperity of both laborers and planters, elimi nations will profit by the example. Journal of Com merce. Famine i.t India. It appears from the recent trans, actions of the British India Society, that within the last seventy-three years no less than sixteen desolating famines have occurred, and that too in a country the soil of Which is allowed to be one of unexampled fertility, and the resour ces of which, it cannot ho denied, if properly managed, would be fully adequate to all the demands of its teeming millions. Tho dates at which these famines are said to have occurred are, 1776, 1770, 1782, 1792. 1S03, IHO!), 1819, ISL'0, 1821, 1828, 18:52, 1S33, lSiSfi: 1S37, 1888, and 1830. Some of the earlier of these famines may, it is stated, be referred to the simultaneous occurrence of wars ; but with respect to those of the last twonty years, which has been a time of profound peace, no such cause can be assigned. The accounts w hich are given of the famine of 1838, arc appalling in the extreme-.'- At.
