We are indebted to the “Southern Aid Society of

lasting obligations. His attention to us and our j
little party, saved us exposure to the “peltings j

likely to result therefrom to the invalids in our j
company.
From about six miles this side of Madison, on j
the road to Monroe in Walton Co., until we reach-!

we travelled over as beautiful a road as could be

its light it is easy to see why it is that men sus

tive of such efforts in philanthropiiic literature is
the tarring and feathering of some tesident of
Maryland, Virginia or Kentucky, charged with
entertaining Free Soil opinions. We think we

“Kentucky must he free. How shall it be brought j
about! it can easily be done, with the co-opera
tion aud aid of tlie opponents of slavery in the
free States. Iu Kentucky, ns also in a number
of the slave States, (yea, all,) they need light.—
The masses are non slaveholders, but they are in
the dark. They are (many of them) also preju
diced against Abolition, because they do not uu
izon. Along the entire road from Milledgeville t
Gainesville, with but few exceptions, the corn
crop looks unusually promising. An abundance
of everything, as Hudibras would say, in the way
of “belly timber,” can be procured iu this section
at moderate prices. At this place corn is selling
at 40 cts. per bushel, t hickens at 8 and 10 cents
a piece, eggs at 8 cents a dozen—good hams at ten
cents; so it may well be imagined that living is
cheap : And with a good appetite, such as we have
at present, to enjoy the fatness of this land, any
man ought to be satisfied.

couiage school teachers of the right Lmd, that the
rising generation may be properly trained to aid
those pious youth ir. slave Slates who bate slave
ry, and will tight against it., to qualify themselves
for teachers. Such there are, and they need help
note and money could not be expended more wise-
Now let ail this be done, and Kentucky and

they come out, the whole fabric of American slave

roach of this generation!
Hno is it to he Accomplished.’
We are assured by a native of Kentucky, who
has long aud earnestly labored against slavery,
and is yet battling on undaunted, (but well nigli
crushed for Want of help,) that if he can hr supplied
with the documents and the means, he will find the
men in Kentucky to circulate them thoroughly
through the State. And we are also assured that
such u movement would be received with favor
by the masses.
Are these things so? Then w hat a glorious
victory is within our power—a victory lor God
and humanity!—And if so, then who will not say,
“/Ac means shall he supplied!” M ill not all say to
those brethren, “Go ON. We will stand by you.
and the Lord give success.”
Friends of the slave, and of human liberty uni-
versai, this thing can be done. The crushed ones
in the South look to us for help: and the voice of
Providence plainly says:
“Friends of Freedom rouse.
Rouse to victory.”
We earnestly suggest that organizations be
form'd all over our land—State, County and
Township—Associations to raise funds for this
purpose. Such a Society lias been formed iu Cin
cinnati, aud we invite the cordial and vigorous co
operation of ilie friends of right throughout the
laud.
Friends, consult and move without delay.—
Bu. until such systematic organization can be
brought about, funds to any amount can be safely
seut to brother John G. Fee, Berea, Madison coun
ty, Ky.; or to Lewis Tappan, 48 Beckman street,
S’ew York; or to Levi Coffin, corner of Broadway
and Franklin streets, Cincinnati, Ohio, w ith the
assurance that money so contributed will be
faithfully appropriated to this object.
Wait not, friends, but as individuals act, for
help is needed speedily—urgently needed xntv.

Ami what do these people propose to themselves

The benefit of the negro! If this is the object, no
act could be more injudicious. A few of the

that it never could be laid down—that it would
break, &c., others thought that it might besuecess-
fully laid, but that the distance would he so great
that the transmission of a message would be next
to an impossibility. Those scientific, men whose
reputation and fortunes were at stake, were not
discouraged by repeated failures, but labored on,
meeting and vanquishing every obstacle that pre
sented itself. Their perseverance has been re
warded. It is a glorious triumph—as such we
rejoice at it. The cable has been landed and put
in coramuuication with other lines throughout the
continent. The anxiously looked for message of
the Queen lias been received and transmitted over

Tlc-.sage From the Queen.
England, Monday, Aug. 16th, 1858.
To the Honorable, the President of the United States:
The Queen desires to congratulate the President
upon the successful completion of this great inter
national work, in which the Queen lias taken the
deepest interest. The Queen is convinced that
the President will join her in fervautly hoping that
the electric Cable, which now connects Great
Britain with the United States, will prove an
additional link between the Nations whose friend
ship is founded on their common interests and
reciprocal esteem. The Queen has much pleas
ure in this comnlunicatiou with the President, of
renewing to him her wishes for the prosperity of
the United States.
(No Signature)
Response of the President
Of the Unit d States to the Queen of England.
To Her Majesty Queen Victoria:
The President cordially reciprocates the con
gratulations of her Majesty, the Queen, on the
success of the great international enterprise ac
complished by the science, skill aud indomitable
energy of the two countries. It is a triumph more
glorious, because far more useful to mankind,
than was ever won by a conquror outlie field of
battle. May the Atlantic Telegraph, under the
blessing of Heaven, prove to he a bond of perpet
ual peace and friendship between the kindred
nations, and an instrument, destined by Divine
Providence, to diffuie religion, Civiiazation, Lib
erty and Law throughout the world. In this view
will not all the nations of Christendom spon
taneously uuite iu the declaration that it shall
he forever neutral, ami that its communications
shall he held sacred, in passing to the places of their
destination, even in the midst of hostilities.

ing majority in the slave States against the institu

this majority that ihc efforts of these philanthro
pists are directed. Nor is the case an entirely
hopeless one. At present the non-slaveholders of
the South are, of all others, tlie most violent in
tbsir pro slavery bigotry. In many cases it
amounts to fanaticism: and this is wliat makes it
dangerous. Rational convictions are not so easily
overthrown; but nothing is less reliable, nothing
mors prone to violent and extreme changes, than
-prejudice. Intolcrence in one direction may be
turned to intolerance in the opposite direction
there have been plenty of instances of the kind-
only reliable fieid presented for the extension of
Southern institutions and Southern political power.
I hat the South will avail itself of this opening—
that Southern men aud Southern institutions will
prevail here, and that, in a comparatively short
space of time, this great territory will be cut up
into six slave States, is my firm conviction. Ex
isting circumstances will, in spite of all opposition
effect this much to-be desired result.
From the Potomac to tho Sabine the prices of
good lands range from ten to fifteen dollars per
acre, and nearly all tlie lands that can be profit
ably cultivated have been taken up by actual set
tlers, consequently the sons of planters and
others who w ish to eugago in agriculture in a
sb’ve State cannot obtain good land within eon-
v 'fitni distance of shipping points, without pay
ing esfeerbitant prices. Iu Texas there are mill
ions of a res of ns good land as the sun ever shone
upon—equally as pood for the cultivation of corn
and cotton as any in the .South, and better than
any on the continent for raising stock—which can
be had at prices ranging from fifteen cents to
three d dlar.i por acre When these facts are tak- n
into consideration, and also the facts that the
young men of the South who art just entering
upon the stage of action, are imbuded with a
strong love for Southern institutions, aud posses a
deep-rooted prejudice against the fanatical free
States, the conclusion of every sensible man must
be tiiat tlm present vacant lands of Texas will be
speediiy occupied by tlie Sons of the South.

At a meeting of the “Putnam Rities" in their
Drill room to-day, the following Preamble and
Resolutions were offered by Lieut. Richard T. Da
vis. and unanimously adopt; d.
We have been called for the first time in the
history of our association, to stand around the
grave of a companion.
The 8"kmn presence of death has invaded our
ranks, and summoned to his last resting place
one whose familliar face was olten seen in our
midst whoso cheerful voice we have often heard
in counsel, and in social converse —whose loot-fall
has olt- r. echoed in the march with ours.
Samuel J. Pearson, one of our Honorary mem
bers, has been removed from our ranks—trom the
ranks of the living, and has gone to take Lis place
in the tinmimerable company of the dead. He
died in Albany Ga. on the 3d day of August, in the
twenty fifth year of his age.
He was one of the first members of our Company
—one of its founders and during his connection
with it as a regular member, was ever, prompt,
and ready, iu the discharge of his duty, and the
observance of discipline. Few exhibited greater
attachment for our organization or more, in
terest in its prosperity. In the walks of life,
as a citizen, lie was esteemed and respected, and
though called to die in a land of comparative
strangers, among whom he had lived hut a short
time, it is gratifying to know that among those
strangers his amiable disposition,, an! gentleman
ly deportment had won friends, whose kind at
tentions solaced and comforted, the last hours of
his life. In ilie family circle the tender relations
of home he was beloved with the fondness which
only the dutiful son—the affectionate brother can
claim. Thus in the midst of all the endearments
and attractions which can bind us to fife —in the
very dawn of manhood, just entering npon a ca
reer which promised prosperity, nseiuluess and
happiness.
As a token of respect for his memory, he it tbere-
