i understand the objeciions of those who plead
for slavery; 1 do not desire to discuss them at
length. Net that they do not tell me that the slaves

happy. Yes, perhaps, under good masters ; they

even inay be dissipated at pleasure ; but have they
the domestic hearth —bave they the family—have
they freedom? Poor disinterested ones of the hu-
man family, they have lost not only the right of
primogeniture, but all rights, and because they are
sometines allowed a plate of lentils, proclamation

of established facts, L have too often attacked it, in

We invite the attention of our readers te the
following Pastorzl Letter of the Bishop of Orleans,
France, on the great question of slavery which
how occupies so promment a place in the melan-

holy and disastrous war between the Northern |

and Southern States. The Leiter is a splendid
plea for universal liberty; and pays a high tribute
to Mr. Lincolu’s Cabinet for the progressive ten-
dencies manifested by it, in proposing, as it lately
did, to abolish slavery, and pledging the national
treasury to indemnify those planters who may be
induced to give up the institution. Orange bigots
take great pleasure in representing the Catholic

made sacrifice of part of her rights, even the most
incontestible, whea the higuer interest of her mis-
sion lins not made it her duty to maintain them, it
has been to reserve the right of suyiag to all the
