4 Horror* of Slavery.
Ca pt, MmelPi rUt to «ll«w •k-P*
On a Southern voyage of trading and di*covery, Capt. Benjamin Morrell,j*. Tinted a flare chip off tbe co»«t of Africa- We extract the accoont, at a fair specimen of jus narrative, just published.
MI

already
The slaves, perfectly naked, were stowed in rows, fore and aft, in a sitting or crouching posture and most of the men had their faccs between their knees, either indulging in moody silence, or mournfully chanting, in a low voice, some plaintive song of their native villages. The feelings of the females were of course more clamo rously expressed, in spite of all their tyrants' exertions to keep them quiet Jn passing along the deck between these two ranges of desparing human beings, I encountered such mute imploring glancei, such appealing looks of misery, such piteous supplicating expressions of countenance, such torrents of teais, that looked like pearls on ebony, as completely and totally unmanned me. JNly own tears fell like rain, and the poor negroes gazed on the strange phenomenon of a white man's [sympathy with wonder, doubt, and admiration. Even the females had not been allowed a rug to cover their nakedness.
After having taken a cuisory view of the heart-sickening scene, my attention was attracted to the after range of pens on the starboard side, which contained about one half the females then on deck. Ilcre, us on the opposite side, of the deck, the two sexes were separated by a partition or bulkhead eight feet in height near which were two women, evidently writhing in the agonies of death. Pai tly from the officers, and partly from their fellow pufferers, I gathered the shameful fact that these dying wretches had beenreduccd to their present situation by repeated applications of the lash, as a punishment for their piteous cries a/ul heart-rending wailings. This worse than brutality had elicited those shrieks and groans which first arrested my attention onboard the Antartic.— They were wives and mothers their infants had been torn from their breasts and throw.) upon the ground, either to perish with hunger among the grass, or to become the prey of beasts, or the reptiles—or, possibly, to be preserved and nourished by strangers. In the phrenzied paroxisms of maternal anguish, they had called for their infants —for their husbands—for their parents —for their brothers,sisters and friends and for this natural, involuntary ebullition of feeling, their bodies had been cruelly lacerated with stripes, until nature sank exhausted, no more to revive. Their breasts were distended with the undrawn nutriment for the lack of which their helpless babes perhaps were perishing—it was oozing in streams from their nipples* mingled, with their own blood.
On learning these facts, indignation enabled me to suppress those softer feelings which were before nearly choking me while the hardened barbarians around me wore sardonic smiles upon their faces. The captains of two vessels were present, and several officers^ For the moment, I impiously wished to be armed with the lightning of Heaven, to punish the guilty, and terminate the sufferings of their victims or. the spot. As this was not practicable, however, 1 gave vent to my feelings in a torrent of invective, pouring upon them volleys of vituperation. I cannot recollcct what I said but for sometime I gave them broadside after broadside, without receiving a single shot in return. They rerccived my fire in silent astonishment, suffering me to rake them fore and aft, until my magazine been me exhausted, aud 1 iused for lack of ammunition.
In the mean time, the two special objects of my compassion wens released from their soffcrings by dcsiJh and
just *s
informed the read
er, that when I entered the Bay of Benguela, there were no less than four tlave dealers from Brazil, waiting to complete their cargoes. One of these receptacles of human misery lay at anchor within fifty fathoms of the Antartic and I was so distressingly annoyed by the shrieks and groans of its hapless inmates, the wretched victims of unfeeling avarice, that I resolved to visit the vessel, and make an offer of such medical aid as might have a tendency to alleviate the anguish of the sufferers. With this determination, I ordered a boat to be manned, and boarded the brig without ceremony. 1 was received by the officers on deck with a certain degree of courtesy, not unmingled with surprise which, when I made known the object of my visit, assumed an expression of deri sion or contempt. Firmly adhering to my original purpose, however, I insist ed upon seeing, and, if necessary, administering to those sufferers whose audible complaints hid so powerfully excited my sympathy. The captain gave orders that my demand should be compliedfwith, and, gracious Heaven! what a horrible spectacle was presented to my view!
tht
visiting captain had at
tempted some observation in excuse or palliation of their cotoduct, our attention was arrested by another object.— One of the captives, a well made, good looking man, of about twenty-five years of age, hod contrived, manacled as he was, to scale the bulkhead, from the top of which, being unable to use his hands, he fell into the females' apartment, where his head struck a ringbolt with such force as to fracture his scull. It was the husband of the youngest of the two women who had just breathed their last. For a few moments he lay senseless from the effects of the blow but soon came to himself sufficiently to understand what was said to him. In the next moment he recognised the dead body of his wife, which he frantically strove to clasp in his manacled arms and, with a yell of despair, endeavored to awaken her with his caresses from the sleep of death, while the wound in his head was pouring forth a torrent of blood on the inanimate object of his piteous lamentations.
The captain of the brig now spoke, and ordered one of the officers to tear the poor fellow from the corpse of his wife, and to stow him on the other side of the deck. He raised his mute imploring eye tome, in which 1 read a speedy termination of his miseries, and an ardent desire to expire on the bosom of his wife. The officer a.lvanced to seize him but this was too much for me to witness. I sprang before the dying man, dew my dirk, and ordered the officer to desist, on the peril of instant death.
Hold I exclaimed, you shall not molest him. Back! back! on your life! No man shall touch him unless he cut his way through my body. You have butchered the wife of his bosom he is now dying from the effects of your savage barbarity and they snail not be separated until his spirit is reunited to hers, in that blessed world where fiends of hell like you can never come.— Back! or your blood shall mingle with the negro's!"
The officer recoiled a few paces, while the others stood gazing at me and each other with mute amazement. 1 stood fixed in my purpose, however and not one of the conscience-struck, guilt-appalled, cowardly wretches, could muster up sufficient courage to oppose my single arm. The dying captive's struggle was short. In a few minutes more he breathed his last, on the cold inanimate lips of her he loved more than he feared death. I then returned my dirk to its sheath, and again addressed the embarrassed officer. "Step forward, inhuman monsters! and contemplate the effects
With these wqrds I advanced to the gangway, and was about to depart, when the captain of the brig expressed a hope that I would not depart in anger, but that 1 would walk below and jointhem in a glassof wine. Ipromptly declined the proffered courtesy, assuring them that it gave me unpleasant feelings to breathe the same air with men engaged in this abominable traffic but were I to drink with them, I should feel guilty of an act of wanton impiety that had stained the untarnished lustre of the flag I sailed under.
They retorted, with a most provoking assurance that groat numbers of American vessels were at this moment engaged in the same traffic vessels they knew were owned by citizens of the United States, commanded by Amerienn captains, and manned by American and English seamen.
Female Industry.—Mrs. Holt, the wife of the proprietor of anew "splendid., spacious and elegant Hotel, which ha* just been opened in the Citj of New York, had within the last six years, in addition to the cares of a. large establishment, made with her owl hands, 1500 towels, 400 pain of sheets, 400 pairs of pillow oases, 950 bed ticks, and 300 patchwork bed qoilts of ample dynenaom. With such a wife, a man cannot hot prosper. She could have employed bnt little time in spinning street yam.
MemdriUe, J+*. 5.—Mr. Isaac Kelly, an old and respectable citizen of Rockdale, in this county, left home on Sunday morning last, with the view of attending religioas service on the west side of French Creek. His track was readily found, and traced to the creek at a point on the Dead Water, and for some distance on the ice, where, from evident appearances, he must hare Mien thro' and perished ander the ice.
FLSHJNC
wof
of
your
cruel barbarity—your triple fiurder. Look there! on the remains of these three poor victims of your avarice and cruelty! Think, too, of their hapless infants which, if not happily already gone to meet their parents in a better world, are fated never to enjoy a parent's tenderness in this. IIow will you answer for crimes like these before the God of Justice? I do not marvel at your cowardice, for it is the inseparable concomitant of guilt like yours. 1 do not wonder that yoa turn pale at my just rebuke, and tremble there like culprits at the gangway— But how much more will you tremble when you are arraigned before the bar of Divine Justice, and hear the voice which brought the universe into existence, pronounce the awful sentence— Inasmuch as you have not shown mercy to one of the least of these, ye have not done it unto me."
POPULARITY.—There
FOE
II
nothing appears more suspicious in a politician, than publicly declaiming all desire to gain popularity.
A
nutrber
of years ago, a prominent member of the New-Hampshire Legislature, who was evidently anxious to gain the good opinion of bis fellow men, embraced every opportunity to declare, that he was actuated solely by disinterested motives that he would be the llistman to flatter the prejudices of his party, or recommend any public measure, merely for tbe purpose of gaining popularity. After an harangue in tne House, which he ended as usual, with a disclaimer of this kind, a shrewd old farmer, (who by the by, was troubled with an impediment in his speech.) rose, observed that the language of the gentleman on this and various other occasions, reminded him of a circumstance which once came to his knowledge:
A baker on entering hith thop one "morning found a thutpithous looking "perthon prethent. On beingathked what he wanted, he replied that he found the door unfathened and walked in, and with waiting theentrath
the.mathter of the thop, butthaid he, I alhthure you thir I have taken nothing from your thelves—1 would thcorn to appropriate to myself any "of your loaveth, thweet cakes, or "thinthcrbread." But the baker, "hearing him thuth unneththetharily "dithclaim any evil infenthion, withely thought proper to thearch him— "and on turning hith pocketh inthide out, found them full of cake and thintherbread !"—News Letter.
TAKEN UP, by Jacob Smith, a resident of Eel river township, Green county, Indiana, three bead of CAT
TLE, to-wit: one red -cow, with some white spots on her back. A year old steer calf, speckled red and white, and a hiefer, speckled red and white. The heifer is supposed to have been three years old last spring both ears cropped, and two splits in each ear. All of them are marked alike. Appraised to sixteen dollars, by Jas. B. Nensom and Addison Grose, Dec. 10, 1822. 1 certify the above to be a true opy from my estray book, Jan. 9, 1833.
