There have recently been two most interesting anti-slavery meetings in
Pittsburgh, which were addressed by a number of members of the
Presbyterian General Assembly. In this connection, we have the
pleasure to state, that _forty-eight_ members, or about _one_ fourth
part of that body, this year, were found to be favorable to _immediate
emancipation_: of these, _six_ are ministers from _slave states_. Last
year there were only _two_ known abolitionists in the Assembly. The
speeches at the anti-slavery meetings were Christian-like, eloquent,
and rich in facts. We make a few extracts.
