nrds, to go for a third party, should be regarded as
schismatics.
The anti-slavery enterprise was commenced as
one strictly moral and religious. It never con
templated the extinction of any religious sect or
political parly as necessary for its success, because
it found in the doctrines of every sect and party
enough, if practically carried out, to ensure the
overthrow of slavery the one great object it has
" ever had in view. It is just as easy to prove that
it is the duly of abolitionists to form a new reli-
' cious sect, as to organize a distinct political party
And we ask, suppose such a proposition should
be urged upon them, because it is lawful, and be
Cause they are pledged to do 'all that 13 lawfully

Have we been dreaming for the last ten years
in believinsr that around the abolition standard, a
existing sects and parties might rally in perfect
unity, without giving up any ot their distinctive
peculiarities? Have we been cherishing a delu
sion in supposing that, so long as the duty of im
mediate and unconditional emancipation is ack
nowledgfed, and the inherent sinfulness of slave
holding maintained, by any of our fellow-citizens
they are entitled to an honorable position upon
the anti-slavery platform, no matter what may be
their scruples ot conscience respecting the Church
or the State, or their views on any other question?
Is it indeed true, that there is not, cannot be, and
never was designed to be, a common bond of
union, by which people of every tribe, clime and
color under heaven might be inspired to labor to
gether for the extinction of a system of oppression
unparalleled lor its enormity? bo it would seem

stood conspicuous in our ranks, be true. But

LETTER FROM BR. GEORGE STORRS
Lebanon, N. II., Dec. 2i, 1S30.
Dear Br. Knapp, On my way to this place I
visited Randolph, in your state, by request of E
Bancroft, Esq. I preached Sabbath afternoon in
Randolph, for Rev. Mr. Boardnian, Congregation
al minister, and who is an abolitionist. The day
was exceeding stormy, and the wind blew tre
mendously, as it did also for several days after
Notwithstanding the storm I lectured on slavery
Sabbath, Monday and Tuesday evenings, to at
. 1 1
tenuve ana increasing congregations ; and on
Wednesday afternoon I gave a lecture before the
Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society.
I wish ,to acknowledge, through the Voice ol
Freedom, a present from the Ladies' Society, to
me, of $1,39, and also, $10,00 from the congre
gation of Tuesday evening, fonvhich they will, all,
please accept m thenks.
While at Randolph, I heard the following an
ccdotes.
THE GOLD srECTACI.r.S.
Heman , a Congregational minister, who
went from the North to Georgia, some years ago,
and married a widow with several hundred slaves,
was on a visit to his native town. Dr. , a
brother of Ileman, is a thorough-going abolition
ist. The Dr. gave Ileman no rest, but plied him
thoroughly with anti-slavery truth. At last, He.
man took off a pair of gold spectacles, and told
the Dr. if ho would let him alone and say nn
more to him about slavery, he would give him
the spectacles. The Dr. replied that he did not
know but he had said about all he wished to say,
and so he concluded to take them. Shortly after
the Dr's anti-slavery fire broke out anew. " Stop,
stop !" said Heman, did you not agree to say no
more to me on that subject, if I would give you
the gold spectacles ? "Here," rejoined the Dr.,
take your spectacles again I must have the priv
ilege of talking to you on slavery.
THE HARDEST NAME.
A foreigner, not long since from the land of
O'Connell, passing along the road in Randolph,
was overtaken by General , who courteously
invited the stranger to ride with him. The in
vitation accepted, the General asked his name.
" Jemmy Clarke," was the reply. "And what
might I call your name ?" said Jemmy. " Think
of the hardest thing in the world, and that is my
name," said the General. Said Jemmy, " I can
think of nothing harder than slavery, and sure,
your name is not Slavery !.'" " 0 no," respond
ed the General, " my name is not slavery it is
Flint."
DC?" Truly, slavery is harder than flint. .

In relation to tho American Stocks, it seems some dis

Its object is to do the greatest possible good to the hearts

subscribers will enable tho editor to devote an increas

While it is confidently presented to the favoiable notice
