Cincinnati too iday moral off Only a 18s8. K. My a oui for about hoists. We Trust that every abolitionist in Ohio who feds any regard for the Prosperity of the holy cause in which he is engaged will give heed to the following remarks. The experience of two years has made it Mani fett that we must have a More efficient system of rai8iir funds. To assemble annually in convention make speeches pass resolutions and talk Over the necessity of contributing largely to the cause is All very Well but it does not replenish. Our Treasury. Two years ago the convention in a parox3t5m of Praise worthy excitement voted ten thousand dollars but it was easier to vote than to pay. Those who promised Liberal things doubt lest Stori Smied Huberal things but lae Gre of Moss Ivym whom the ten thousand dollars were to be revised were not present at the convention and of Ottise were not greatly affected by so generous an . Last yet or the convention declined voting any thing individuals and societies Thida Dong Mem pledged Vertaim sums to be paid Fol the course of the year. On the Shdie there was commendable faithfulness in the Redempa on of pledge i. Still the plan was a partial one and Mir last anniversary Sho wed that it was not to be relied on. A minority of the whole number of societies alone stood pledged during the last year. Hiey Hose the whole Pei Niety Burthen and of a Rae were the less Able to do any thing at our last Anni Vei Saiy. Nevertheless with Dimin lied ability they were again compelled to shoulder the Burthen. The pledges Wen made and As usual the to the societies Kilt not a log the Leil amount of Toney was pledged Cha at any former anniversary v. We do not attrib be the backwardness of a majority of the so Nieues in contributing to a Lack of Neid or to an a generous determination to it a few societies do All the work. An act Inam table with Ohio generally forbids Sun i a supp sit Iott. The whole difficulty in the Case consists Tia by in the want of an efficient plan for raising funds Sneh a pin As shall wisely de tribute the Burthen of the Caus Over the whole anti slavery a place responsibility on every shoulder be readily understood and easily carried into execution by every individual and secure the bar Antonious Aedon of every society in the state. This certainly is ail that is needed for it cannot to pc Simo that there is a single abolitionist in Ohio who is not Weling to do something that there is a Eingle siciely that would not Blush at the cons foosness of having Given not one cent to pre Aboite a cause to whose support it stands solemnly pledged by its Constitution in a meat then have Soch a plan a plan that win every abolitionist into the Field a Evcic Moo into the Treasury lust see what could be done with scarcely any a fit there Are we win say then five thousand about zionists in the image. Are Here any among diem so poor that they could not contribute each i2 cents a Quad item to be a half Cento pm quarterly Wim amount to 50 cents a year. Now if every Aioli Toms tin the state would Only contribute this Small sum yearly the whole out raised would be twelve Dio usand five Hundred dollars. I it of what a rim your Ute stress make the Power of iii Divi Doal fib it is immense and it is precisely this truth that we be forgotten. We beseech the two Hundred and sixty societies that hate not yet pledged themselves to the cause to improve on these the secretory of each of these up cities or if he fail to do his duty any individual belonging to it so soon As he shall Hare read this article go Straightway and of his society read to it our re Tad the article we publish below draw up a quarterly subscription paper and get every Indi Vida my print to put Down his name for such a my whether it be much or Little.

Her id edition ism is of the right Stamps it is a hard working about Mem. We exp oct the following from a plan of labor recommended to a abolitionists of that state by the bored of manager of the state society she is to raise Steen thousand Douai through the Yew no doubt she will Mise every cent of it. We especially solicit attention to the Section entitled a a Pron of labor the Vbk to a a hoax tar the a Tole society and it Auxin amp Arim the Mumm f eat k. Obr Ioos. I ten thousand dollars re to be need for the Parent society. A. Tom is Sot Lew one Hundred towns in the Commonwealth in which there is no and where utile or nothing has been done for the very canes.

To set this machinery in motion Sod sustain it the state society will need Al six thousand dollars. The work to be done then in this state the a suing year is by no Means a Smoli one. Sixteen thousand Duars cannot be raised one Hundred new to duties cannot be planted and antislavery libraries est int be and petitions or enlisted to every town in the state without the Moat prompt Sematic vigorous and persevering Effi Art. How it a a Dombi it can never be done by depending on permanent agent to do h. You cannot get the men and of Yon could you cannot get the Means if Yon com get both it would be bad Economy of men and Means to undertake to do the whole work by this inst mentality alone. For the most part pm Bua Iaela of permanent agents should be to lecture and form societies a. In towns where Little has been done for the cause thus occupying new ground and whatever needs to be done elsewhere should be done by local and temporary agents or by Volunteer labourers in the respective towns. The county and town societies must each assume their Felt measure of in the matter and in with the tale society and with out writing for a permanent agent to come and stir them up a they must see by the help of local agents and otherwise that the work in All its a is promptly and thoroughly done within their Respre Tive limits.

A a the necessity of preserve my fee e Olive Branch Etlou question. The Olive Branch of Danville ky., in an editorial on the convention question has the following remarks a we come now to a part of the subject of All others fee most important i he slavery question. Other durations May be of considerable interest to particular sections of the state to a county a town or a particular District but throughout the length and breadth of the state there is scarcely a Ringle individual who is India Brent upon the subject of slavery. All Are interested and All feel feat they Are so. That fee people of Kentucky will one Day have to act upon fee s subject. Of Ria very is now reduced to a moral certainty but fee question now is has feat time come we think not and we oppose the agitation of the question now not because we Are enemies to free discussion not because we Are unfriendly to the slave but because we Are friends to both master and slave. A Kentucky has hitherto been free from any violent proceedings upon this subject we feel proud that we Are kentuckians when we recollect feat her soil has never yet been disgraced by those outlawed and barbarian like proceedings which have disgraced Home of her sister states. A she has hitherto been free from any violent excitement non the subject but though free from excitement she has not been in Concemi a. Suie has Felt and acknowledged that tha Sanaa. Rifis Saboi aos peace and Good order of society a but we fear that fee agitation of the slavery question now would Lead to no beneficial result. The declaration of Northern abolitionist that Kentucky is now their Battle ground and the great inner it which they have already manifested in fee proposed convention Lead us to believe that to Wilt leave no Means untried to produce the same excitement in Kentucky that they have produced in other places an i when feat comes to be fee Case we May bid Adieu for a season Al least to peace and Good order. We May prepare a Una Ais for All those scenes of Ouraim and Lawless violence Whide few Vwg muted the Progress of similar Excita Menta in Ofee Setji a it is admitted in these remarks that the people of Kentucky will one Day have to act upon the subject of slavery hot it is denied that this is the proper time for such action. And Why is it not a proper time if slavery be sinful the work of reformation cannot be too speedily commenced. If it be ruinous to the state you cannot discuss it and take measures for its removal too soon. Why i it not a stable Timet because abolitionists Are imitating the country be assured never until the last Velige of slavery be swept hmm this re it Public shall this agitation cease. Besides top nose that abolitionists Are wrong Inte meddlers it is Best not even to a Sims the propriety of breaking a single links sorely our respect ame Cote opiary cannot be in Earnest. But what Are we to think of the reason assigned for thus postponing discussion Kentucky has hitherto been free from excitement and to introduce this discussion would interrupt her Tranquillity. The autocrat of tiie russian might put Forth a similar plea a a we Are now in a state of peace. My dominions have i Tiberto been free from those violent revolutions which have broken up the quiet of other nations and filled their annals with the records of violence and crime. I cannot consent therefore that the prerogatives of despotism should be discussed by my subjects. The establishment of a free press in other nations has uniformly re suited in unpleasant excitements and commotions. A free press therefore i will not allow and i will oppose any movement on the part of my subjects to investigate too curiously the doctrine of the rights of whether men be prevented from freely expressing their opinions by apprehend com of violence or violence to fact one thing is certain i a right of free discussion is restrained adhere peace and Good order in a Community Are maintained on the sole condition that no efforts be made to put an end to an acknowledged evil the sooner that Community be disturbed the better. Liberty of speech and the press is too High a Price to pay for even peaces but where once it has been paid think not that it can be redeemed without a struggle. Nevertheless let it be redeemed let the evil that must not be spoken against be fearlessly arraigned at the bar of pubic opinion and subjected to the test of free severe discussion a the struggle will last but for a moment Victory will declare in favor of right commotion will subside 30 1 then there will be peace True enduring honorable peace not Soch As reigned in Warsaw when the foot of the tyrant had stamped out the last lingering fires of a nation s Freedom but such As fell like Dew on the hearts of our fathers when returning from the Field of Battle it was told them that the foe with whom they had contended had forever abandoned All claim to their allegiance. Sogi Fitlin below is a list of Allae societies Aat Are pledged. We Publiski it so Hitt the a pledged societies not seeing ask names in it May be re mind de of their neglect and stimulated to act. We expect them to act promptly. We Adjure Aem 8 they pity the wrongs of As slave As Aey regard the Honor and Well being of air country As Aey value their o in liberties and would secure the approbation of the god of a to impressed to act instantaneously act energetically act with one heart and one mind. No matter How hard the times or vexatious a Money pressure.

Look abroad Over a foce of a civilized world. The question of slavery is agitating every portion of it. Great Britain has converted her 800,000 slaves into freemen. France is preparing to right Olish Ria very m her colonies. When both nations have consummated a work of emancipation. Are is not a slave holding nation m Europe Aal will not be compelled to proclaim Liberty to the captive. Monarchies Are outstripping this great Republic in sincere Devotion to Liberal principles. Kings have become our teachers m lessons off Liberty and Equality. The example of the greatest nation on Eara is pleading via us not to falsify our professions but to do Justice to the slave and tiie Light of their example shines from one end of a Eara to a other bringing out in Imes of Zueff Ceable brightness the glorious Tina that immediate emancipation is a right of a slave a duty of a master and a safety and happiness of All concerned. In a Blase of this Light a Slivo sure emn no longer plead ignorance and doubt Anc perplexity As reasons for not abolishing slavery. The Way of emancipation is now opened its perils have been tested and proved to be shadows what was an Experiment via a British government must be received by us As a practical Trua we Are called on to Izzard noting for Ait Gram Experiment has demonstrated what men ought to have known before Likhat Ria very Eon he abolish it i about danger or injury to any important interest Aud yet in View of All these facts in the face a worlds opinions at a Hazard of making Ais Republic the last Refuge of oppression on Eara a editor of a Olive Branch can say that Kentucky a time for what emancipating the slave no a but for simply discussing the qution of slavery has not yet come think of this a the monarchies of a old world already in fed in sundering the chains of a mave while we. Republicans have come to an condos Ion that abolition in great Britain. All Britain is glowing with anti Lav cry excitement. Meetings Are everywhere in Progress and a whole country is demanding in tones of aun Der the instantaneous entire and unqualified Abo a apprentice ship we have just received from our transatlantic friends several of the late London papers from which we shall make a few extracts. At the great meeting held at Bath april 24lh, George Thompson delivered an energetic soul stirring speech the report of which occupies about four of the Large columns of the London Sun. Here is the concluding paragraph. 006 or two remarks More Aad i shall take my heat. No doubt in the House of commons air Yaghout fee discussion there was no feeling for the negro no recognition of religious feelings or principles no respect for the hundreds of thousands of petition Era a Complete ind amp rence to fee prayer of the lation and Only recognizing the main Cnance of the interests of the punters. Shame upon fee men who did so shame upon the great and otherwise Noble men who on that occasion stood Forth not As fee champions of the oppressed not As fee indicators of impartiality and fee British constitutions not As the exponents of English Law not As wishing to fond fee throne of the Sovereign in righteousness and Justice but standing Forward to do the bpm work of the vilest combination that Ever disgraced Mankind. If i happen to be a.

A the a Tom who said he was aware this was fee first towns meeting held out of fee Assai on a House and perhaps in having it held Here he was deviating into a very unusual course but he trusted that fee Good sense and the gtd a a feel of his fellow townsmen would hold him excused. If it were a right cause if it were one of troth and Justice it need not be supported and it could not be assisted by Mere declamation or by violence of speech or action. If it were founded upon truth and Justice by these alone Ronld it prevail. They were a deliberative Assembly and were not to be moved by Mere excitement but by a deep and get ailing sense of principle like a Majestic River Over full and overflowing and not dependent upon accidental sources to swell its current. The cause which feel bad assembled to Dise Tiss was not to be advanced by violence nor by abuse nor by attributing evil motives to any one. If fee cause was a just and True one they should allow every one who came Forward to be heard with calmness and impartiality.

Their prayer was rejected Laough this Hall is for the use of citizens and has been granted again and again to nearly All sorts of persons for All sorts of purposes. So much for american Liberty and British tyranny the London Sim of the 18a ult. Contains a deeply interesting account of a meeting on the 17th of the county of Essex on the subject of negro emancipation. A a Public meeting of the freeholders and offer in Habut ants of fee county of Essex took place yesterday it fee town Hall Chelmsford for the purpose of taking into a onside Region the propriety of petitioning furl sment the immediate and entire abolition of i to apprenticeship in fee British colonies in the West indies. The meeting was very numerous by and respectably attended and fee gallery was filled with ladies. At a few minutes past twelve the High sheriff we. Cotton Esq., who was by several of the most respectable and influential inhabitants of Chelmsford Colchester and the neighbouring districts entered the Hull and took fee chair amidst loud and general Dree ring.

No doubt it was a question on which Many entertained different opinions and therefore be begged again to express a Hope that the discussion would be conduct wife kind feeling. The worthy chairman Feen read fee requisition calling upon him to Convene fee or. Thom Soja we also prese it at Ais meeting and spoke with his usual ability and Elo i Renee. The follow in g is an extract from his speech the whole of which would fill More than Page and a half of our paper. A now fee negro was worthy of this not merely As a Man but As a Man fit for Freedom. Our enemies being fee judges there is not a human being on the face of the Globe More fit for Freedom. What a mass what volumes of base calumnies have been propagated respecting the fitness of fee a Ero for Freedom and even now Mare told by , that if two years were necessary to prepare him for a transition state How much the More necessary to have two years to prepare him for a state of Freedom Ergo we no Means think of emancipating fee negro. It is tot the negro whom 1 consider unfit for Freedom the patient double dredging negro attached by a solitary act of kindness to fee Man who May have been guilty of 1,000 Acta of unkind who with a Cutlass in his hand for fifty years never once raised it against the Man who had spoiled him of his rights. It was not that Man who was unfit for Freedom in my eyes though fair science May not have enlightened his mind though the Page of divine inspiration May present unmeaning hieroglyphics to his gaze he is not the Ina who is unfit for Freedman but 1 will Tell you who. No matter How polished How proud or How. Pider no matter what be his rent Roll no matter whether Hebe a student of Christ Church or an under Secretary of state that Man in my estimation a unfit for Freedom who enjoying and being Wise and proud and Happy and Strong a cause he is free either grudges it to his neighbor or feat is worse uses the Means which Freedom give him to for the chains for his fellow Man or worse than All wors tipping at the altar of tie goddess brings itts victim to her shrine and sacrifices him there.
