The subject Of slavery begins to excite
share o. the attention its great import
ance demands. There Is evidently wa
king up-an engagedness of feeling,
which slil grow more and more intense,
as it has been of Eng!and-''as soon as
the Stare touches ii, his chains fall off,"


Slavery has already been tolerated too
long Its evils are constantly accumula-
ting-and the rod of justice has been sus-
pended over us long and fearfully. 1t is
time to look to IT. and press the import
ancc of s'letsing the oppressed 60 free. y
1t Is time the subject was agitated IN eve-
~ clrcie--in every paper-in ever, pull
pit. The press should speak ut-and do
it nOu. We have not the power to con-
tro the slave-holding States, but we may
demand, in the name Of humanity, tina,
SLAYER, be forever abolished. Nay, more.
We may petition to have the foul stain
wiped away, 80 far as our general govern
ment stands chargeable with it. The
District Of Columbia may be purged from
ITS sabominations-ands should be at once
and the building and prison houses of the
United States no longer used as a means
of oPpression, as repositories Of those
whose only crime is a cOlored skin-as
helps and securities Of the man-stealer.
Let the people awake. Let those who
can feel for their o'rn rights and priviIe-
ges-those who delight to dwell on the
beauty and excellence Of our govern
ment, and our free institutions, sympa-
,hize with the slave, and arouse to the i'm
portant work Of emancipation! To de-
Law, is to sleep over inlustice-to trifie
over human suffering!
