The Correspondent of the Albany Patriot gives the following account of the Bastera part of Ibis State: "I have been very much gratified to find that nearly allouroldfriends m Eastern Pennsylvania are now pmoared to unite with the Liberty Party, Wthe efforts to abolish Slayery; while they will not (nor shoüld they) feel less interest in the other departments of anti-slavery effort to which they have heretofore addressed themselves. A State Convention for Eastern Pennsylvania, to nomínate half the -Electoral tickef,and conditionally, a Governor, willsoon assemblejand it must cali forth a great amount of active zeal and labor. " Our non-voting friends will not oppose, and some of them decidedly favor it, if any votmg is to bedone. The kindness and forbearance wnich marks the intercourse of our friends here. will be well shown in the Pennsylvania Freeman. now revived as a semi-monlhly, to be edited chiefly by J. M. McKim, aided by Charles C. Burleigh. McKim is adecidcd Liberty man. I need not speak of liis consummate wisdom, editorial ability and excellent spirit, to those who know him, as many of my readers do. Mr. Burleigh. a non-resistent in principle,will makeno opposition to the genera1 wish of our friends to imite with the Liberty Party. Reckon-on 5,000 votes f rom Pennsylvania for Birney, in 1844."
