We have thought it no more than our duty
to lay before the people ot the South some ex
tracts from the Abolition papers of the North
in order to show them what the Abolitionists
are doing to pervert public opinion and con
vert people to the Abolition faith. The fol

Helper’s Book—The Impending
CRISIS.
A number of Free State men have resolved
to appeal to their fellow-citizens for the mean
of inaugurating the canvass of 1800 by
printing uud circulating gratuitously—for the
most part among the citizens of the border
Free and Slave States—a very large cheap edi
tion of Mr. R. R. Helper’s “Impending Crisis
of toe South,” a work which, as the produc
tion of one born and reared to maturity in a
central Slave State, defies the cavil that those
who make the most outcry against Slavery,
know next to nothing of it. save by hearsay.
Mr. Helper is a North Carolinian, still a young
mm, who was led by the spirit of adventure
to California, where he learned to contrast
Free Labor with that of slaves, and to weigh
one against another. Ilis conclusions are
embodied in the work now under considera
tion.
.Mr. Helper's book has been hailed with en- i
thusiastic approval by the Anti-Slavery Press
of all schools, and commended by many wise
men as the best Republican text book. It has
been extensively circulated and read ; but its
price ($1) is such as to forbid its universal
currency. It is now proposed to reprint it
more compactly and cheaply, so that One
Hundred Thousand Copies of it may be afford
ed sot 516.000 or sixteen cents per copy, and
thus give it the widest possible gratuitous cir
culation, especially in Pennsylvania, New Jer
sey, Indiana, Delaware, Maryland, and the
other border Slave States. It is confidently
believed that such circulation will be a signal
a id reasonable prep .ration for a Republican
triumph in 1800, and for a speedy extinction
of Slavery, at least throughout the present bor
der Slave States.

Help for the Fugit-ves.
We have received a prospectus and appeal,
put forth by an association at Windsor, U. W„
called “The Agricultural, .1/echauical and Ed
ucational Association of Canada West.” The
memoers are ail conductors and agents on the
“Underground Railroad,” and propose to adopt
svstema io measures to relieve the itnpoveriah
el fugitives from slavery who make Canada
their home. Messrs. Lewis Clarke and Frank
lin Thornton are the General Agents of the
Society. Cyrus Clarke is President, and D. W.
Johnson Treasurer. They ask lor help in
clothing, provisions, hooks or money.
Letter from John G. Fee-How
TO ABOUT IONIZE KENTUCKY.
Some of your correspondents speaks discour
agin'lyof free speech in the .South on the
subject of Human Freedom’ It is the part of
candor to say, there are places where the most
prudent aud self-sacrificing cannot stay and
be heard ; but it is just as true that there are
co unies where true men can stay, and exercise
the u;most liberty of speech, tell the most
pointed truths, and distribute the best of Anti-
Slavery documents; and this, too, in places
woere speaking and reading will do most good
—.each most voters. Take four counties in
this State as samples. Bourbon County has
7,036 slaves, with only 7,155 white persons;
Woodford County has 6.370 slaves. Those
counties are rich, fertile counties, and liberty
of speech cannot probably there bo maintained
against the “peculiar institution.”
In Campbell County there are 12,000 whites, !
with only 170 slaves. In Pulaski County there j
are 12,801 wh'tes, with 1,307 slaves. In Jack
son County (anew county 1 ) there are, I be- j
lieve. some 5,000 white persons, with not more i
than 15 slaves. In all these counties last men- i
tioued, the lecturer and colporteur can travel, i
speak, and distribute Anti : Slnvery documents |
to thousands. In Jackson County, eight of 1
the civil officers are repotted to mo as Anti-!
Slavery men—some of them I know personally :
aid know them as outspoken Abolitionists,
some of them members and friends of our free
churches. This county has shured richly in
the Anti-Slavery labors in this State. Asa
general truth, whero most Anti-Slavery labor
hai been bestowed, there you find the greatest
numner of staunch, reliable Anti-Slavery men.
I believe like and still greater results may bo |
effected in other counties. I believe the South
may yet, by the power of truth, be redeemed
from the thraldom of Slavery. Like revolu
tions have boen effected by the power of truth
in other lands. Why not here ?
The place for reform is among the poor—in
the mountain or poorer counties.
The means of retorm must come from with
out—from tbo Free Slates. Just ns reform
for India or Africa must come from abroad, so
must the means of reform for the Sonth como
from, tf.c free Statos of this Union.
Ncrw, among the many ways of aidir.g the
South in scouring her greatest good, and the ‘
00 or slave his wonted liberty, is that of pub
lishing and distributing Anti-Slavery tracts
and books. Tracts are better than books ; the
masses want something they can read quickly.
True, you may say there nro associations
I formed for this work; that the “American
Tract Society” (at Boston) will publish, now,
against Slavery. True, and I am heartily glad
of it, though it be in a very modified form—
“the moral duties growing out of the existence
of Slavery, ’’ touening not the “political aspects
of Slavery.”
We need something more. The axe should
bo laid at the root of the tree itself: hew down
the tree; lopping off the branch here and there
is a slow process.
Also, political sins should bo decried by the
men of God as well as individual and social,
sins. “ Spare not.” Slaveholders know this
—and they are eagle-eyed in reference to in
lonsistencies. They will, in their opponents, 1
msh truth to its logical results; they despise
cringing, though they insist upon it in the
slave; they spit upon it, kick it. Wo should
out be reckless—only frank and meekly hold.
R. 11. Helper has a book for the times, the
“ Impending Crisis.” I wish it were comprised
in a tract. His friends propose, as I learn, an
abridged edition. I want to urge its speedy
publication. I hope money will not be wunt
ng : that those who have, will inquire if it is
needed. Delays are injurious. Slavery is in
trenching itself. Friends of Freedom will
weary unless their hopes are cheered aud rising
energies fed. Men here are ready to distri
bute it; one or two colporteurs arc traveling
regularly and distributing such.
There ought to be a National Colporteur
I Convention held—twenty-five faithful men se
j lected to go to Missouri, twenty five more to
I Kentucky. Load these with Helper’s book.—
Goodloe’s tract, “ Is it expedient to introduce
Slavery into Kansas, revisel for the South,”
L ivejoy’s speech, and scores of others. Let
these colporteurs go to the non-slaveholding
counties, where the voters are ; let them spread
ruth in the name and fear of God; let them
! enlighten and rouse the voters, and by 1860,
tln unmistakable terms, tellfo the speedy down
all of slaver}’. The philanthropists would ben
efit the slaveholder as well as the poor, bleed
ing slave. Thus slavery, the nation’s danger,
would go out without bloodshed. God would
: be honored—man would he blessed. The w ork
has been done in other lands; it can be done
here if the friends of freedom will consecrate
their wealth and energies to the glorious work.

[From the Boston (Abolition) Tract Journal.]
From North Carolina.
“ I hasten to answer your inquiries. The
portion of the South in which I labor is won
derfully opened for the reception of anti-slave
ry truth. lam a native of this State, and have
. , faithfully preached an uncompromising gospel
!at every point of my work. Not satisfied, how
ever, with mere verbal effort. I determined to
’ introduce anti-slavery books. Many thought
this hazardous in the extreme, in view of the
abominable laws on that subject, and greatly
feared my enthralment. I maintained that he
that will not risk something for Christ is not
worthy of him ; he that will save his life shall
lose it, etc.; and the success far exceeded my
expectations. These books were circulated at
first rather covertly ; hut greatly disliking this
covert operation, I came out boldly, disdaining
all concealment, and my book agencies are
probably doing more than I bat e been able to
do by preaching. Among these books, I have
circulated fifty copies of the “ Impending Cri
sis” of the South, by Helper, which take like
fire in dry stubble. An cx-governor of North
Carolina, a man of unrivaled popularity, has
one of these copies, (he is a large slaveholder,)
and J. A. Gilmer, member for this district in
j Congress has another: and now, for all this
; defiance of slavery and slave laws your humble
servant has hardly heard a threat. Is not this
I wonderful ? Is it not thehand of him who has
j said, ‘ the wrath of man shall praise him, and
j the remainder of wrath he will restrain ?’ De
j voutly thankful, I trust, my soul is to my God,
for these signal mercies'. And now let me say
to the American Tract Society, through you,
its officer, that I have no doubt of our abil
ity to distribute successfully at least 5,000
tracts such as those to which you allude. Our
agencies to do this will be mainly our anti
; slavery preachers, exhorters, church members,
| and many others friendly to human liberty.
Indeed, it is not at all improbable that in a
! year w,. m'ght double the above number. I
! have just sent to New York for another box of
j Helper’s workto supply theincreasingdemand.
I A slaveholder, who has read this book, is now
asking his neighbors what he must do with his
; slaves. Are not theso blessed portents, my
j brother ?”
FROM ANOinEl! SOUTHERN STATE,
j “I am glad that you are disposed to publish
tracts on the slavery question. I am not an
j abolitionist, but I think the question should be
1 discussed, and the moral evils growing out of
it exposed. My opinion is, that the influences
of slavery upon the family institution arc great
and many, and that is the phase of the ques
tion to which talent should be devoted. Can’t
you, by corresponding with able writers, pro
cure some good MS. on that subject? It might
and ought to he so presented as not to irritate
the South. Suppose you try to secure one tr
more good treatises on this subject by writers
residing in the South, and trained up amid the
influences of slavery on tho family institutions ?
I am a nat.vc of the South, and even South
Carolina, the most ultra of all the Southern
States, and yet I am anxious to obtain and
real, for my own benefit, as well as for that ot
my neighbors, any essay I can obtain on the
subject before indicated. I saw a prize offered
> y a Scotchman fur such an essay, and have
written twice without effect to obtain it. Can
you furnish me with it by muil ?”
A package of tracts having been sent to the
writer of the above, elicited from him the fol
lowing touching reply:
“ Yours, with the accompanying tracts, are
received. Thank you ! Glad to hear that yon
are going *0 publish more on the same subject.
Please mail mo a copy of each. The subject
must bo open to discussion, and your society
affords the proper channel.
“ I have many chances for gratuitous circu
lation of tracts, aud would thank you kindly
for any quantity you by way of do
nation. I would gladly pay expenses of trans
portation for the pleasure of giving them away.
I can send your publication through the whole
breadth of the Stato. I shall be pleased to
keep up a regular correspondence with you,
and I think I can give some useful information
about the ‘peculiar institutions’ of the South.
“ 1 will thank you kindly for any books and
tracts, newspapers, old, new, second hand,
or damaged, you may send to ’my address. Do
send me a small donation.”

What the Abolitionists are Do-1
ING.
We give in another column (says tho New
York Day Book ) some extracts from several
Abolition sheets, to show what the “ Re
publiean” party and its allies aro doing to in
fluence pnblio opinion. For years this process
lias been going ou. Ever since it was discovered
that tho “ slavery” question could bo used to
create discord among the States of tho Con
federacy, these men have been at work with
tho most untiring zeal to create such differ
ences of opinion and dissensions as to bring
about a disruption of tlie Union. To this end
they have printed millions of pages of Aboli
tion tracts and newspapers, and sent them
gratuitously in every direction to corrupt the
minds of those who, seeing nothing ot the ne
gro practically, are of course liable to ho oper
ated upon by their misrepresentations and
falsehoods. This process is being pursued at
this moment with more energy than ever be
fore. Tho prospect of perchance electing a
“Republican” President in 18G0 glitters before
them, and they are redoubling their efforts in
view of the chances.
A great point with them just now is to en
deavor to .force their hooks in tho “ slave”
States. Anew Tract Society has recently been
started in Boston, ostensibly a religious cod.
; cern, but really asemi-political organization, ex
pressly designed to act as tho entering wedge
jof Abolition Tracts in the South. Already
they boast that they circulate them freely in
some parts of Kentucky and North Carolina.
No names are given, as to who acts as agents
I in disseminating these incendiary documents,
i though it might be discovered, perhaps, in the
: respective localities where these gentlemen are,
i who are scattering firebrands and teaching the
negroes the right and duty of killing their mas
ters.
The time has come when the tide ought to
be turned, when good, sound anti-Abolition
pamphlets and papers ought to be circulated in
the North, and all over the land in fact, to
strengthen the hands of the friends of Truth,
and furnish them arguments to meet their an
tagonists.

New Y'ork, June 21. —The details of the
battle at Magenta were slowly [received in
England and did not change the first complex

both sides.
The Austrian official account only acknowl
edges from four to five thousand killed and
wounded, and says the allies lost half as many
more.
The Austrians’ headquarters aro near Cre

1,200.
The latest advices snv that the allies are ad

words per hour. The Government also agrees
to pay £20,000 per annum for messages, and
this amount, with the sum to he received from
the United States will probably induce an ear

The latest intelligence from Paris states that
the Bourse was depressed and lower, and the

Narrow Escape of Napoleon. —ln his vis

gio, and was observing with his telescope the
movements of the enemy between Barbianello
i and the Portico del Stella upon the Po, when
suddenly a detachment ot Austrians presented
themselves before him, only two hundred
paces distant Whether they had lost their
way or whether they had advanced thus far
from mere hardihood cannot be told; but it is
probable that the latter supposition is correct,
inasmuch as the advanced posts of the Austri
ans are much more energetic and daring than
the Franco-Sardinians. Directly, lxow’ever,
the Emperor saw them, he changed color,
threw away his cigar, irove the spurs into his
horses flanks, and galloped back to Voghera at
a pace which would have done honor to the
winner of the Derby.

took the express train of cars at Albany for
New York; when tho train was about two
miles below Poughkeepsie it stopped, and the
way train which left that city a few minutes
afterwards, ran into the express train, killing
the wife. The defenco was that a husband
cannot maintain the action, nr ot any rate could
recover only nominal damages, ns lie had not
in fact sustained “pecuniary damages.” The
jury, after an absence of half an hour, return
