cy. For the Anglo—Saxon slaves had it in their power to purchase their freedom; and the laws of the realm recognized their liberation and placed them under legal protection. The, diffusion of Christianity in Great Britain was moreover followed by a general manumission; for it would seem that the priests and missionaries of religion in that early and benighted age were more faithful in the performance of their duties than those of the present. The holy fathers, monks, and friars, says Sir T. Smith, had in their confessions, and specially in their extreme and deadly sickness, convinced the laity how dangerous a thing it was for one Christian to hold another in bondage; so that temporal men, by reason of the terror in their consciences, were glad to manumit all their villains.—Hist. Commonwealth, Blackstone, p. 52. To counteract the dangers resulting from a state of society so utterly at variance with the great Declaration of American freedom should be the earnest endeavor of ev

Smith and Surgeon A. Dozier, of the 7th Regiment, South Carolina Volunteers. Morris had a parole from Colonel Van Dorn, of Texas. He had strong intimations of a desire to reach Washington City, and excited the suspicions of Judge Withers and Dr. Jos. Jennings, who had traveled with him from Montgomery, Ala. He was carried to Camp Botler, where he will undergo an examination.

ere in every respect successful in accomplishing their object. Gen. Hancock procured 91 loads of forage, an General McCall over 50. None of the enemy were seen save a few cavalry scouts, who retired rapidly from view. But the expedition was, as it now appears, of considerable importance in its results. Gen. Hancock carried out in every respect his plans, going no further towards Centreville than he originally designed. It will be observed that no man has yet been lost from this (Smith's) division, and the reason is because no small parties are sent out. Whenever a force goes outside the lines it is strong enough to fight a battle. Then two lines of skirmishers scour every wood in advance of the column. Serenade to Col. Mulligan.
