AbitrMt of Br. on Slavery. ' ' Dr. Smith slid he felt some degree of mortUkathm in entering upon the discussion of this uueetion. If slavery is wrong, thou, imukJs of pious persons iu the South who hold sieves tie shmerf in the sight of God. If slavery is wrong, tliey know it, and it Is ntrepology to nay they can'thelp themselves. ^If slavery is wrong, it must either be,wro?g in the abstract, or there is something wrong in the practical wo.king of the institution as established among us. j .A grad many person*, who justify h! avery, (IL jidmit it is wrong iu tire olwtract. The pre valence of this. fatal ndnii*>ion is attributn^ We to the teachings of Thomas Jefferson, -1. "wtoo though a wise statesman, was neither a J ^,.*-..1.?? . a |'\i |/mivm^uuvi SIVI f* uiviiU'iMflMnu f W It Uiq use of the northern books in nil oar *J schools and colleges and to tho concessions of such toeti na. Clay,'Webster,. Rives nnd others. If slavery is wrong in the abstract, it is wrong in tho concrete, for nothing can be right which proceeds from a wrong principle. This position the lecture illustrated fully. It is, therefore, a matter of tho last irtlportanco that wo should ascertain whether the great principles upon which slavery rests is right or wrong. What then is slavery in the abstract I? Men frequently denounce the principles of slavery as wrong, who do not stop to inquire what that principle is. The institution of slavery implies the relation of inaHtcr and.slave. The term master implies ono who controls imother by his own will. Tho term slave, ono who is subject to bo controlled by the will of auother. The abstract idea of slavery then, is the tuil>J iugation of a human being to be controlled 9 by the will of anther?nothing more ; 1109 thing less. This -then, is the principle of slavery. Is it right, or is it wrong! The principles of liberty is the co-rel&tivo * of the principle of slavery. It implies the j right of an individual to control himself.? | Perfect freedom is the right of an individual at all times, and in all places, and in all things, to do as he pleases. I * These two antagonistic principles enter as i necessary elements into all forms of human, government. If the principle of slavery alone Unadmitted, the Government is a pure despotism. If the principle of liberty alone | is admitted, the government degenerates in*to an anarphy. Bnt in most forms of government, botB principles are admitted.? I When the principles of slavery largely preJ ponderatcs, the government is a monarchy , and when the right to govern is distributed II among the heads of families, it assume^ patriarchal form. In a Democratic Republic, however, the two antagonistic forms of liberty and slavery are combined in equal proportions, and produce a well regulated government. Wo are not disposed as a people, he said, to admit that the principles of P t?ra ititrt nnr (jnvnnunnnf Kn? ! such, nevertheless is the fact If an individual refuses to be subjugated to tho control of the majority, and assumes to assert his perfect freedom, he will soon find himself curtaHcd of the limited freedom secured to him by the laws, and reduced to the most absolute and degrading slavery within the walls of the Penitentiary. Indeed we can conceive of no government in which the principle of slavery does not largely eutcr. The ?nglisli language contains no term to disignaUn such a government. (Control and subjection are implied in the very term government. If every individual were to ao right by the impulse of his own will, there would be no need of government, in die sense in which we understand It. Hut as long as a man is under the influence of his corrupt nature, a government which allows cveiy individual to do as he pleases, will necessarily degenerate into an anarchy. Even in the moral government of Ood, the principles of slavery enters as a control thug element, as is demonstrated by the punishments threatened to the ungodly in the world to come. To assert, therefore, that slavery is wrong in the Abstract, is not only to deny the authority of all human government, hut to impeach the justice of the moral government i- of God, into which the principle of slavery enters largely as a controlling element j>r. Smith next exposed the fallacy of the common expresson: "all men are born free and equal." Men, he aaid, are not born, boys are born. They are not born free, but as children are subjected to the absolute control of their parents. That they are not born physically equal, any roan may prove to his satisfaction by a trial of strength with his fellows. And that inequality exist* equally in the moral and intellectual organi ization of men is demonstrated by daily experience. Neither are man ^created equal/ Thero wore but two beings created, and one I of these was made entirely subject to tin control of the other. Since the fall, he said playfully, this relation has been entirely ro versed, and the woman has become the mas ter and man the dafe. It is further urged in condemnation o slavery, that all men have "equal rights.' What do we mean by "rights!" This, also ia a term often used, and but little under stood. By "rights,M he said, he meant thi privileges and benefits which by the ordei of Providence, had been conferred on mat for the promotion of his own happiness.? This, however, msy be affirmed of toe brut< as well aa of men. The brute baa the righ to use the privileges and benefits which havi been conferred upon it by the order of Pro videnoe for the promotion of his own happi nam. But ^sill any man, therefore, affirn th?t the brute is entitled to political oounlit with men! It therefore irrefutably follow that men have uKright to the free nee c those privileges and benefits only which the. "*^8 y'*-*- jf..it?f?>>-a> -L very "an odious fastitatioa," admit* that minors are an exception to the dogma" that all men hare equal rights, and acknowledges himself unprepared to decide whether semi-' barbarians do uot fall under the same category. The lecturer here characterized this conduct-of Dr. Wayland as unfair, unjust and unclVrfetain, and found an apology for liim only in the stupid blindness of bus fanaticism.';'.. X Dr. Smith next considered the applicability to the subject of slaver^* of such texts of scripture as this 'Thou ehalt lov*? t|(j[ neighbor as thyself," which he said, found ita interpretation in this?"Whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye even so "to them." It is argued, he said, that if wejwrould as laves, desire our masters to give us freedom, therefore wo ought to givo freedom to our slaves. Is this, no asked, the true interpre- j tatiou of this scripture 1 If you were n prisoner on trial for murder, you would desire a jury to acquit you, therefore "you must, as juror, turn loose the gilty. Were you poor, you would desire your rich neighbor to.devidfe his wealth with you; therefore you must divide yours with him. It is thus apparent that this interpretation would stiiko a fatal Wow at social order.? The true meauing of this text is, that we must do unto all men as we would have ? right to expect them to do unto us, uuder the same circumstances. The slave, is not capable of using freedom, to the promotion of lus own happiness and the good of society, and has no right to demand it, nud we have a right and are in duty bound to keep huh in slavery. He next considered the policy of the Jews in respect to slavery. lie showed that in the ton commandments, the constitution of the Jewish theocracy, God had recognized the existence of slavery. uThou shalt not covet thy neighbor's man servant, nor his j maid servant." And further, that though a Jctv was allowed to make 'a slave of a Jew, he was compelled to set liiiu free on the year of jubilee; yet that in respect "to the heathI en round about" the Almighty had prescribed the mode of making them slaves for life for themselves and their posterity. Tacit HuuiLiTf.?No humanity is thoroughly sound which is not thoroughly truthful. The man who brings misdirected or inflated does so in a false humility, and will probably be found to iudemuify himself ou one side or another. Either lie takes a pride in his supposed humility; or, escaping in his 1 aelf-condemilfttions from the darker into the I lighter shades of his life aud nature, lie plays i at hide-and-seek with his conscience. And true limnility, being a wise virtue, will deal more in self-examination and secret contrition thnn in confession. For confession is often a mere luxury of the conscience, used as the epicures of ancient Home would use as emetic aud a warm bath before they sat down to a feast. It is often also a very snare to the maker of it, and a delusion practised on the party to whom it is made. For, first, the faults may be such ns words will not adequately explain; secondly, the plea of "guilty" shake* judgement in her seat; thirdly, the indulgence shown to confession might be better bestowed on the shame which conceals ; fur this tends to correction, whereas confession will many times stand instead of penitence to the wrong-doer; and sometimes even a sorrowful penitence stands in its own tears.?

Kind words also produeo their own image on men's souls. And a beautiful image it is. They smooth and quiet, and comfort the licarer. They , shame him out of his sour, morose, unkind ( feelings.
