Anti-slavery Ascendency

It is a fact, conceded, we believe, by every pro-slavery paper in the country, from the Globe downwards, that theBritish Empire is completely ruled by an anti-slavery influence. They denounce it, talk of English hypocrisy, and all that: but still admit that her national policy is, lias been, and will be, anti-slavery. This influence has emancipated 13,000,000 of slaves. It has given L20,000,000 to the West India planters. It maintains, at great expense a squadron on the coast of África to suppress the Slave Trade. In an article on Texas, our neighbor of the Journal speaks of this anti-slavery ascendency in England in the following unqualified terms. "It is useless to attempt to measure the amount of philanthropy which actuates the government of Gi-eat Britain in this action. It is suificient to know that the anti-slavery party - it it be a party - in Great Britain, is all powerful. Ño administration could stand a day without carryingout the anti-slavery policy which lias become inseparably blended with the government. The statesmen at the head of the British government, or whoever may succeed them, have no choice in this matíer. They will infiexibJy persevere in the policy of destroying slavery wherever their power or influence extends just because they cannol help it. Their most wise constituency can look coolly on their own brethren, starving by ihousands all around them. thoughno attempt to relieve them is made or thought of. but their government may not,, look with like indifference on the xoell-fed, negro of Texas.'' We shall not dispute the correctness of the position thus four times solemnly reiterated. But we would ask these papers to notice wliere this mighty influence came from, which they assert to be irresistable over the British statesmen and nation? "Wh ere was it manufactured, and who continúes it? It originated in a single person, about sixty years since, and was embodied inacommittee of six,apart of whom were Quakers! They talked about Slavery, and kept talking about it. until the whole nation heard, and now her anti-slavery mandates go forth to the four quarters of the Globe. These proslavery papers are even uow discussing the abolition of slavery in Texas through British influence - in other words, through the influence of this committee of six,most of whom now slumber with the dead! Does this convey no lesson to us? Cannot these pro-slavery papers, which are filled with prophecies of the destruction of the Liberty party - can they not see that talking and acting will be quite as efficaciorishereasthere? That anti-slavery sentiments will extend from mind to mind, and from heart to heart, till their influence over the nation shall be as resistless as it is over the English people1? It mattersnot what particular channel this influence shall take - whether it be the Liberty organization, or Garrisonism, or both, or neither. Anti-slavery feeling will find a way to propogate iteelf, and it will find the besó way. So that, if human nature is the same in'this country and in England, the slave-holders may take warning; forthedays of their ascendency are numbered.05a Morgan Bates, the former proprietor of the Detroit Daily Advertiser, has disposed of his establishment to A. S. Williams, and retired from business. The paper is to be edited by Mr. Williams, and F. A. Harding, and will support, the political principies it has hitherto sustained. Mr. Bates, it seems, is to retire to agricultura! pursuits.
