206     THE LIBERATOR.     DECEMBER 29.

REV. DR. DEWEY'S DISCLAIMER.

We see it going the rounds of the papers, that 
Rev. Orville Dewey, D. D., in the course of a lecture 
delivered before the Mercantile Library Association 
in Boston, on the evening of Oct. 20th, took 
occasion to brand as a 'calumny' and a 'lie,' the 
story extensively circulated, that, in his lecture before 
the same body six years ago, he said he would 
consign his own mother to slavery to preserve the 
union of the States. He is said to have pronounced 
his disclaimer with the most vehement indignation, 
as a vindication due to the honor of his name. 
Yet the Doctor expressly admits that he did, on the 
occasion referred to, utter the following language:

'I would consent that my own brother, my own son, 
should go into slavery—ten times rather would I go myself—
than that this Union should perish for me or 
mine.'

This is indeed a sorry vindication for the Rev. 
Doctor to make of his character as a minister of 
Jesus, and a citizen of the American Republic.—
And that he did say this we knew before his recent 
confession, for we were present at that lecture, and 
heard that language. If we had seen a father in 
the very act of murdering his son, we could scarcely 
have experienced a more horrific shudder than that 
which ran through our nerves when we heard that 
language. And, indeed, the instant assassination 
of the son by the father would be tender mercy, in
comparison with binding him with cords, and delivering 
him over to slavery for life. And for what 
would the amiable Doctor 'consent' to such a sacrifice 
of his brother and son? Why, for the sake 
of purchasing, at this price, the consent of the 
slaveholders to remain in our confederacy! Of 
course, if he would consent to the enslavement of 
his brother, son and self, for purchasing the will 
of the slaveholders to abide with us, he would consent 
to the enslavement of any one else, and of all 
other Northern people, for the same glorious purpose! 
Of course he must. What a bargain! 
What a principle to be uttered by an American
Doctor of Divinity North! He loves confederacy 
with the slaveholders so well, that rather than be 
deprived of it, he would have it perpetuated, if it 
were to consist in the relation of the whole North 
to the South as that of slaves to their masters. It 
was an exceedingly foolish remark, and the Doctor 
would have acted more wisely to have said so, 
frankly and [ingen?] [?sly], than to have attempted to 
frighten the good citizens of Boston with indignant 
bluster. Whether were his mother, or his brother 
affects not the principle.  It was the expression 
of a willingness to [?d], even by human sacrifice, 
and to sanctify an enormous wrong, for a supposed 
temporal business a [?tage]. It was intended, in 
fact, as a bone [th?] to the pacification of the 
bloodhounds in [pur?] of human cattle.

When the father [?o] out, and encourage his 
brother and son to [g?] [?d] bare their bosoms to 
danger and death, in [?] cause of the oppressed 
against the oppressor, cause of human right, 
improvement and happiness, he shall receive the 
blessing of God and man. But no political union, 
no magnificent scheme of enriching trade, which 
is to be sanctified by [th?] doing of iniquity, is worth 
a straw. If all [th?] [uth] were to rise up and say 
to us [?] and seize that degraded [Ne?] 
[?] can find in Boston, or that [stu?] 
and thrust him into eternal slavery, 
[?] stand by the present American-Union, 
[?],  we will secede en masse to-morrow,' what 
[?nd] we answer? What? We would instantly 
reply, 'Away with you to-morrow! We believe 
in God. who judgeth in the earth. We will obey 
his law, and bide the consequences.'

Yet we do not make light of the American Union. 
If it can be preserved on principles of right, it is a 
great good. But if the price of it must be our perpetual 
pandering to wrong, then it is worse than 
nothing, vanity. Hear ye the word of the Lord:—
'Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel 
and their work from the Lord. Your turning 
of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's 
clay.' 'Wherefore hear ye the word of the 
Lord, ye scornful men that rule this people. Because 
ye have said, we have made a covenant with 
death, and with hell are we at agreement; when 
the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall 
not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, 
and under falsehood have we hid ourselves. 
Judgment will I lay to the line, and righteousness 
to the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away 
the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the 
hiding place. And your covenant with death shall 
be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall 
not stand. When the overflowing scourge shall 
pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.' 
'Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom 
this people shall say, A confederacy: neither fear 
ye their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of 
hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let 
him be your dread.' Isa. xxix: 15, 16; xxviii: 
14 16; viii: 12, 13.—Boston Christian Freeman.

SHALL KANSAS BE FREE?

Mr. Mace, of Indiana, has given notice of his 
intention to introduce a bill prohibiting slavery in 
Kansas and Nebraska. For this early and yet 
timely movement, he is entitled to the thanks of 
the friends of freedom throughout the country. 
Objections will be made by the timid and the time-serving; 
we shall hear much small talk about the 
inexpediency of reviving the agitations of the last 
session; we shall be told that the attempt is useless 
and dangerous. But, for all this, we hope 
Mr. Mace will persevere. The dying man is not 
abandoned until every known remedy has been tried, 
and the great West ought not to be left to the doom 
of slavery, while a single wise and courageous man 
remains in Congress to resist its encroachments. 
We think that every effort, however unpromising, 
is worth making in behalf of freedom. No man 
can tell what will be the result of a well-directed


[?orable] deed; the record of its consummation is 
not a record of the opinions of representatives, but 
of their cowardice and their ambition. Mr. Mace 
will give them a chance for repentance and reparation, 
and they ought to thank him for it. Nor 
should the verdict of the people be forgotten. It 
is anything but ambiguous or indecisive, and if 
the present Congress fails to undo its most miserable 
work, the next one must perform that service, 
or be branded as doubly traitorous.—Boston Atlas.

THE CHOCTAWS.

The American Board of Foreign Missions, at its 
recent meeting, passed a resolution to dissolve its 
connection with the Choctaw schools, and to withdraw 
the teachers and money which it has been 
contributing, unless the Choctaw General Council 
should repeal an act prohibiting the instruction of 
slaves. This action of the Board, which has highly 
approved by most sensible people, and considered 
as creditable and truly Christian. has excited 
the displeasure of Col. Harkins, the Chief of the 
Choctaws. The Colonel is a prudent as well as a 
pious brave, and is determined to cast out those 
teachers who care for the lowly, the enslaved, and 
the oppressed, and to send for new teachers, who 
'will not teach anything beyond what the Apostles 
of Jesus Christ taught in their day.' Chief Harkins' 
notions of apostolic teachings are lively, but 
limited; and he cannot, for one, be persuaded that 
our Saviour would have taken the trouble to come
into the world to save 'niggers.' The fashionable
barber in London, spoken of in Nicholas Nickleby,
decline to shave coal-heavers—he felt that he
must draw the line somewhere, and he refused to
rasp anybody under a baker.  Col. Harkins thinks
gospel advantages would be quite thrown away upon
anybody under "Ingins," and he draws the
line of salvation accordingly.

The aboriginal Colonel also urges upon his
tribe, the necessity of notifying government that it
is ready to adopt Johnson's territorial bill.  He
says, 'Our only chance to live and exist as a people,
will be to educate and civilize as fast as possible
the rising generation'—meaning of course
the copper-colored rising generation only.  Harkins
has very pretty notions of civilization, borrowed,
of course, from the patriarchal opinions of
the South; but perhaps it has never occurred to
him, that for one oppressed people to oppress another
is a bad way of awakening sympathy.  Harkins 
must be very benighted indeed, if he thinks
that the expulsion of faithful Christian teachers
from the country is evidence of Choctaw passion
for 'civilization.'  Perhaps, however, he still takes
an aboriginal view of the subject, and means to
follow up the pursuit of civilization by the revival
of scalping, burning at the stake, and other agreeable
Indian diversions.  If so, he ought to put a
ring in his nose and red-ochre his cheeks without
delay.—Boston Atlas.

From the London Empire of Dec. 2
SALUTATORY ADDRESS.

It is not without reluctance that, yielding to the
judgment of those whom I esteem wiser than myself,
I to-day address the readers of THE EMPIRE
over my own proper signature.

My purpose is, firstly, to announce the fact that
I have become co-editor and principal proprietor of
this journal; and, secondly, to say something
which shall indicate, with sufficient distinctness,
the principles by which my Editorial Management
will be regulated, the general views which I intend
to promulgate, and the ends to which my literary
labors will be directed.

THE EMPIRE, since its establishment, twelve
months ago, has been distinguished for its able
and manly advocacy of the cause of social morality,
of sound liberal opinions, and of progressive reform.
It will continue to be so distinguished, any
deficiency of talent on my part being amply compensated
by the more meritorious contributions of
those with whom I already have the honor to be
associated, and of others whom I have reason to
believe will lend me their occasional and valuable
co-operation.

What I have been during the whole course of my
public life, that I shall inflexibly remain—the ardent
friend and supporter of Free-trade and the rights
of industry—of the absolute and perfect equality
of all religious sects—of the largest practicable
increase of the independent political power of the
people—of justice to our colonies, and especially
to the conquered subjects of our vast Indian Empire—
of the exercise of the moral influence of this
nation in favor of the total and universal extinction
of slavery and the slave trade; and, finally,
of the Christian principles of Peace—especially
the substitution of pacific arbitration, in all international
disputes, for the present senseless, absurd 
and bloody appeal to the sword; and the
gradual overthrow of those gigantic military institutions
of Europe which menace the tranquility
of the world, are the strongest bulwarks of despotism,
and the most formidable obstacles to the advancement
of civilization, and the triumphs of pure
and undefiled religion.

I shall hold MORALITY to be the true foundation
of all POLITICS, and shall first enquire—not what
is EXPEDIENT, but what is RIGHT; regarding it as
ever in the highest degree inexpedient, and in the 
end necessarily injurious, to depart from the principles
of truth and rectitude.  I shall endeavor to
test all questions by the unadulterated standard of
Christian ethics, and by their bearing—not on the 
prospects or projects of a party, but upon the 
widest and best interests of the human race; trying
to adhere to what is morally right—right
everywhere, and right for all time.  Conducted on
these principles, THE EMPIRE will not be a strict
party paper, but will be the friend of every party
that shall prove its desire to carry out, in whatever
direction, the maxims of individual, national and

No Union with Slaveholders.
BOSTON, DECEMBER 29, 1854.

THE BAZAAR.

The weather, for a few days past, has been extremely
unpropitious for the ANTI-SLAVERY BAZAAR, in this
city, rendering the walking exceedingly disagreeable, and
keeping many visitors away, who would otherwise have
attended to cheer by their presence, and aid the cause
by their patronage.  Notwithstanding this serious drawback,
and the severe pressure in the money market, the
proceeds of the sales have thus far equalled those of
any season.  The Bazaar will not close till Saturday
evening; and we are happy to announce that, in addition
to the stock of useful and beautiful articles still remaining
on hand, no less than five additional boxes
have arrived in the steamer America from England, the
contents of which will give new variety and splendor to
the exhibition.  Let the time be well improved by liberal
purchases and a spirited attendance.

It is expected that, this (Friday) evening, ANTOINETTE
BROWN will speak at the Bazaar, and on Saturday evening,
LUCY STONE.  The simple announcement will suffice
to fill the hall.

LONDON ANTI-SLAVERY CONFERENCE.

For the report of the proceedings of this Conference,
which was held at the London Tavern on the 29th and
30th ult., at the call of the British and Foreign A. S. 
Society, we are specially indebted to our highly esteemed
friend, Rev FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool.  A considerable
portion of it is extracted from 'THE EMPIRE,'
the journal now under the editorial care of GEORGE
THOMPSON, Esq., whose Salutatory address to the patrons
thereof may be found in the preceding column.—
The Conference was in session two days, and appears
to have been conducted in a spirit far different from
that of the 'World Convention' in 1840.  The female
delegates appeared with credentials from Manchester,
and were admitted without opposition.  How
different this from the exclusion of LUCRETIA MOTT,
MARY GREW, and other American women from the 
Conventional aforesaid!  And what a change it implies
on the part of the Broad Street Committee, either from
motives of policy or from higher considerations!—
Again—no gag was applied, and free speech was amply
vindicated in the fidelity with which PARKER PILLSBURY
uttered and applied the truth, respecting the unjustifiable
course pursued by that Committee towards
the American Anti-Slavery Society for many years
past.  We will not complain that the Conference did
not specially endorse the old Pioneer Society, though it
would have been simply just and magnanimous to have
done so; and we much prefer the phraseology used in
the resolution adopted by the Conference, in regard to
'the abolitionists generally in the United States,' than
to have had the American A. S. Society specifically
classed with the American and Foreign A. S. Society.
All we ask is, a free platform, and no favors.

BLOOD MONEY.

The following shows the amounts paid to the military
of the city for their services at the time of the rendition
of the fugitive slave, Anthony Burns, some months
since:
National Lancers, Capt. Wilmarth     $820 00
Boston Light Dragoons, Capt. Wright     1,128 00
Fifth Regiment of Artillery, by Col. Cowdin,
for himself, staff and regiment     3,946 00
Boston Light Infantry, Capt. Rogers     460 00
New England Guards, Capt. Henshaw     432 00
Pulaski Guards, Capt. Wright     328 00
Boston Light Guard, Capt. Follett     500 00
Boston City Guard, Capt. French, (of which
$190 was paid by order to George Young,
for 'refreshments')     438 00
Boston Independent Fusileers, Capt. Cooley     320 00
Washington Light Infantry, Capt. Upton     536 00

Major Pierce and staff, of the First Battalion
Light Dragoons     146 00
Col. Holbrook and staff, of the First Regiment
of Light Infantry     26 00
Brigadier General Andrews and staff, of the 
First Brigade     107 50
Major Burbank and staff, of the Third Battlion
of Light Infantry     76 00
William Read, hardware and sporting apparatus
dealer, for ammunition     155 28

Total     $13,115 78

Should the Companies here designated consent to receive
the BLOOD MONEY awarded to them by the General
Government, for their services in kidnapping poor
Burns, they will make their infamy sure and lasting.
If they were ordered out, on that inglorious occasion,
simply to preserve the peace of the city, (as Mayor
Smith pretended,) then their remuneration is no concern
of the General Government; and behind this plea
they have skulked till now, to shield themselves from
popular contempt.  The acceptance of this BLOOD
MONEY will constitute every officer and private, who took
part in that tragedy, willing accomplices in kidnapping,


ANTI-SLAVERY CONFERENCE IN LONDON.

A Conference of the friends of anti-slavery, convened
by circular issued by the Committee of the British and
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, was held at the London
Tavern, Bishopsgate Street, on Wednesday and Thursday,
the 29th and 30th November.  The attendance,
though not large, was influential, and comprised many
well-known names from various parts of the country.

At the morning sitting on the first day, Mr. SAMUEL
GURNEY was called to the Chair.  In opening the proceedings,
he spoke of the state of the slave trade on the 
coast of Africa, and in Brazil and Cuba.  He also referred
to American slavery as a system of the grossest
despotism, particularly disgraceful to the country which
cherished it; and, on the whole, he said he was compelled
to regard the present position of the anti-slavery
cause as one of discouragement.

Mr. CHAMEROVZOW, the Secretary of the British and
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, mentioned many letters
that had been received from persons friendly to the
meeting, but who were unable to attend, from some of 
which he read extracts.  He then proceeded to read
lists of delegates to the Conference, appointed from various
places.

Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, at this stage of
the proceedings, rose in the room, and handed up the
credentials of two delegates then present, of whose appointment,
he said, the Secretary had not received any
previous notice.

Mr. CHAMEROVZOW immediately read the credentials
thus publicly handed to him, which were those of Mrs.
Moore and Miss Whitelegge, as delegates from the 
Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society of Manchester; and no objection
being offered, the appointment was of course ratified
by the meeting like that of all the other delegates.
There were many other ladies in the room as visitors,
but we heard it said that several among them would have
been delegates, had they been aware that women would
have been admitted in that capacity.

The Rev. J. H. Hinton, Baptist minister, read a paper
on 'The Present Position of the Anti-Slavery Question
in Great Britain as a Public Question, and the 
Duty of British Abolitionists.'  He referred to the labors
of Clarkson, Wilberforce and their coadjutors, the
motives that had animated them, and the glorious results
that had crowned their efforts.  From the past he
came to the present.  The question was one that concerned
the whole civilized world.  The thief and the
receiver of stolen goods assailed interests that were public,
and had no right to shelter themselves under the
plea of individual right.  America nourished an atrocious
traffic equally heartless and heart-rending.  The
motto of abolitionists should be, 'Freedom for the Slave,
and no surrender.'  The position of the question in this
country had for some time been quiescent, but not extinct.
Little attention, comparatively, had of late been
paid to it, because no great and tangible object had been
before them.  They had, moreover, been embarrassed
in their action by differences of opinion on the sugar
duties and other matters.  But the time, he thought,
had come when they should 'let by-gones be by-gones,'
and their present duty, now that they were happily once
more united, was to marshal themselves for action.  The
question was, what was to be done?  and that would be 
answered by the different speakers to whom the various
topics that were to come before the Conference had ben
entrusted.

Mr. JOSEPH PRICE, of Neath, proposed the first resolution,
which, after stating that eight millions of human
beings are now held as chattels in the United States,
the Brazils, the Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch colonies,
asserted the essential immorality and unrighteousness
of the doctrine, that it is lawful for man to 
hold property in man; and encouraged the British and 
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society to prosecute its labors
with undiminished energy.  Mr. Price referred in terms
of the highest approval to the recent mission of three
'Friends' to the slave States of America, and considered
that religious work had exercised a most important
influence for good.  The question, however, it must be
confessed, wore a gloomy aspect in that country, but if
men of business and sense would consider how they
would enhance the value of their land by abolishing
slavery, they would take courage and do it.  If twenty
millions of pounds sterling abolished slavery in the West
Indies, eighty millions would effect the same great object 
in the United States.  The time would come, he
thought, when it would be found expedient by the various
States to adopt this course.

Major General THOMPSON next made a few observations.
He thought that Spain was able to effect emancipation 
in Cuba, from the fact that France has succeeded
in doing so in her colonies.  The Americans, he
said, were going to take Cuba; but if the Spaniards
would preserve that island to their rule, they must abolish
slavery.  The English government could do much
to bring about this happy result; and they had a great
political interest in its accomplishment, for if Cuba became
the possession of the Slave Power, nothing could
save the West Indies from its grasp.  The question was
one of fast importance, as the possession of Cuba by
the United States was only part of one vast scheme for
the universal spread of slavery over all tropical 
regions.

The Rev. JOHN WOODWARD seconded the resolution


them, even at the end of sixteen years' possession of
their rights, but he believed, from practical knowledge,
that where justice is done to the free laborer, he generally
becomes a respectable man, and a good member
of society.  He referred to various laws existing in
British Guiana, (among others, 'to the masters' and
servants' act,) which he believed exercised a demoralizing
influence upon the negro population.  The speaker
read copious extracts from the most recent reports
of several magistrates residing in the colony, in confirmation
of his statement that the colored people were
rapidly advancing in civilization.  These documents
particularly referred to their increasing regard for education,
and the great progress which habits of temperance 
had made amongst them.

Mr. S. BOURNE, late stipendiary magistrate in Demerara,
said that he formed the acquaintance of Mr. Joseph
John Gurney when he visited the West Indies. 
Mr. Gurney asked him whether slave labor was as cheap
as free labor.  At that time he was almost ready to reply
in the affirmative, but on making searching inquiry,
he came to a totally opposite conclusion.  He believed
that it would be of great advantage to the colonists
if cotton, as well as sugar, was cultivated.  Many benevolent
persons of his acquaintance had been hampered
with difficulties on the subject of emancipation.  He
was ready to prove to such persons—1.  That by properly
draining the land, one-third more canes would be
produced.  2.  That this measure would improve the
general health, and also attract fresh capitalists to the
colonies.  3.  That the introduction of a more simple
machinery (such as he had placed on view, in another
part of the building,) would double the quantity of sugar
produced.  4.  By the suitable industrial education
of the laborers.  He suggested that the Conference should
appoint a sub-committee to consider the subject.

The Rev. W. JAMES, of Bristol, remarked that he had
conversed with gentlemen connected with the West Indies,
who complained that the negroes would not work.
He wished some information on this point.

Mr. BOURNE replied that he never knew of any deficiency
in the labor market when a sufficient remuneration
was offered.

The CHAIRMAN asked if the negro would work properly
for stipulated wages.

Mr. BOURNE replied in the affirmative.

A conversation then ensued, in which Mr. Chamerovzow, 
Mr. Woodwark, and Mr. Joseph Clark took
part.

Mr. CHAMEROVZOW stated that the substance of the
numerous letters that he had received from the West
Indies on the subject, was to the effect that there was
no indisposition to work on the part of the colored population,
and that when they refused to do so, it was almost
invariably the fault of the planter.

Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON earnestly recommended every
member of the Conference to peruse Dr. Davy's recently
published work on 'Slavery before and after
emancipation,' which contained the results of a very
extensive personal inquiry on the subject which had
been considered by the Conference, and furnished a 
most valuable body of evidence to all abolitionists.

The resolution having been carried, the Conference
adjourned.

FIRST DAY—AFTERNOON SITTING.

At three o'clock, the Conference reässembled, and J.
T. Price, Esq., was noted to the chair, in the absence of 
Mr. Gurney.

M. VISTOR SCHŒLCHER (a member of the late French
National Assembly) arose amid much cheering to propose
the third resolution, which declared that the results 
of emancipation in the French West India colonies
were highly encouraging, considering the brief period
this measure has been in operation, and that they
were an additional illustration of the perfect safety of
immediate abolition.  M. Schœlcher reviewed the state
of public opinion in France on the slave question prior
to the revolution of 1848.  One of the first acts of the 
Provisional Government, (which he should ever consider
it an honor to have been associated with) was the abolition
of slavery in the French colonies.  They abolished
it without transition, and in so doing, the planters
themselves had declared that the government had
acted wisely.  In proof of this, he quoted from various
colonial newspapers.  With regard to the insurrection
of negroes at Martinique, that took place before the
Act of Emancipation had taken effect—in fact, that was
a result of the revolution at home.  He drew a rather
gloomy picture of the present state of the colonies under
the Empire.  Slavery had been for ever abolished in
the colonies by the decrees of the Republic, but much
injustice was still perpetuated.  The Governor of Guadaloupe
had dismissed the Attorney General, and driven
away the Bishops, because they refused to make their
high offices subservient to compulsory labor.  Pride of 
caste, he thought, was an evil which takes the longest
time to cure.  It is because the free blacks have had
the impudence to say, 'Am I not as much as you?'
that these difficulties have arisen.  But there is order
now in the Antilles, as there is in Paris.  Any negro is
liable to be arrested on the highway, if he have not a 
passport, for which he is obliged to pay.  The education
of the blacks is subjected to equally obnoxious regulations.
He spoke of the evils of free immigration,
connected with which there are always the evils of sla-


uncalled-for expression of a desire that he would keep
closely to the question, curtly remarked, when Mr.
Pillsbury resumed his seat, that it was not by railing
at America that any good was to be done.  

After a few remarks by the Revs. Mr. Solly, C. Stovel,
and Edward Mathews and Mr. Carr, the resolution
was ordered to stand over until the following morning,
that the committee might make in it certain alterations
which had been suggested during the discussion.

SECOND DAY.

At the assembling of the Conference on Thursday
morning, JOHN CROPPER, Esq., of Liverpool, having
been requested to occupy the chair, opened the meeting
with a few brief observations.

Mr. JOHN CANDLER then moved a resolution in reference
to the extinction of the slave trade in Brazil,
which was seconded by Mr. ROBERT CHARLTON, and
supported by Mr. WILSON BURGESS.

A gentleman inquired whether the prejudice against
color in Brazil was as great as in the United States.

Mr. BURGESS believed it was not, and attributed the 
fact to the circumstance that the Brazilians were themselves
so very near the complexion of their slaves.
(Laughter.)

The resolution was then put and carried unanimously.

The Rev. JAMES SHERMAN, in an able and eloquent
speech, next proposed a resolution on the subject of slavery
in the United States, which was as follows:—
'That whilst this Conference cherishes the most friendly
disposition towards the people of the United States,
it cannot contemplate without the deepest sorrow the
revolting spectacle presented [?] the existence in their
midst of the institution of slavery, which by various
compromises under the [Con?ution] they have recognized 
as national, and other [?e] sanctioned and supported,
until it has attained colossal dimensions, and
embraced in its oppressive [g?] nearly three millions
and a half of their fellow-citizens.  Nor can this Conference
refrain from [expressi?] [?ks] reprobation of those
professing ministers of the [?pel], who vindicate, by
the perversion of Scripture, vitally strengthen this
iniquitous institution; or [w?] whilst admitting the
enormity of the evil and its [nrighteousness], neither
bear a testimony against it no labor for its abolition.
In view, therefore, of the extensive implication of the
great majority of the churches [o???ica] in the system
of slavery, and of the flagrant [repr??] [?thus] 
upon the Christian religion, this Conference
to be its solemn duty to call upon the various
denominations in the United Kingdom individually and
unitedly to protest against this dishonor to God, and
this outrage upon the inalienable rights of man, and to 
use all appropriate means to awaken the American
churches thus implicated to a sense of the guilt and responsibility
which inseparably attach to the countenance
and support of such a system.  Whilst, however,
this Conference deems it to be its duty to reprobate 
the inconsistent and criminal conduct of those professing
Christians in the United States who practise
slaveholding, or apologise for it, or who abstain from
bearing a testimony against it, it would joyfully recognise
and assure of its sympathy and respect, such religious
bodies and individual churches as exclude slaveholders
from their communion, and exert their influence
in favor of the anti-slavery cause, and would commend
them to the fraternal regard of every true Christian.
This Conference also regards it as a duty to embrace
the present opportunity of specially adverting to the 
noble conduct of those eminent men in the United States
Congress, who have opposed the designs of the pro-slavery
party; and, whilst earnestly exhorting them to 
renewed exertions in their honorable career, would assure
them of the respect and esteem of British philanthropists.
Lastly, this Conference would express its
cordial sympathy with the abolitionists of America
generally, for the fidelity and integrity with which 
they have demanded the immediate and unconditional
abolition of slavery, and the uncompromising perseverance
with which they have pursued their purpose, in
spite of many perils, of the bitterest persecution and 
reproach, and in the face of a corrupt public sentiment,
and would encourage them to persevere in pleading for 
the millions yet bowed beneath the yoke, assured that,
under the Divine blessing, the righteousness of their
causes will ultimately prevail.

Mr. DUNCAN McLEREN, late Lord Provost of Edingurgh,
seconded the resolution.  He was glad to support it,
because it entered into no metaphysical subtleties
or niceties, and most vehemently condemned slavery—
an institution which he regarded as containing all
the worst evils that afflict society.  He believed that
resolution would have great weight, as the Americans
are very susceptible of public opinion.

Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, said that he rose
to propose the insertion of a clause which he thought
would supply a most important omission in the resolution.
As far as it went, the resolution was admirable,
but it did not go far enough.  It mentioned the anti-slavery
Senators of the United States, but it carefully
omitted all distinct reference to those whose claims were
infinitely higher; he alluded to the pioneers in the
cause of abolition, the members of the American Anti-Slavery
Society, without whose devoted and self-[?ing]
labors the subject of slavery never would [?]
have been introduced into the American [?]
would not conceal from the meeting.

Shall Kansas Be Free?
Mr. Mace of Indiana, has given notice of his intention to introduce a bill prohibiting slavery in Kansas and Nebraska. For this early and yet timely movement, he is entitled to the thanks of the friends of freedom throughout the country. Objections will be made by the timid and the time-serving ; we shall hear much small talk about the inexpediency of reviving the agitations of the last session ; we shall be told that the attempt is use-less and dangerous.  But, for all this, we hope Mr. Mace will persevere.  The dying man is not abandoned until every known remedy has been tried, and the great West ought no to be left to the doom of slavery, while a single wise and courageous man remains in Congress to resist its encroachments. We think that every effort, however unpromising, is worth making in behalf of freedom.  No man can tell what will be the result of a well-directed blow ; a single word spoken in season in season or apparent-ly out of season, may save Kansas for freedom, and with her how many other embryo States ! Those who are disposed to complain, ought to re-member the reatness of this question.  Within [??????] the church exposes us to foreign war, defies [????] and in every department of the body [?????] a subtle poison, makes itself felt for evil. [?????] This is slavery as it is-arrogant, [?????] fined within certain limits,  though [????] through in a minority. What will it [????] schemes which it has already projected. [????] certain extent developed, are successfully [?????] out !  What will it be when it has a [?????] the Senate and the House-when it is [????] necessity of concealing its designs-when it [?????] dependent of Northern parties ? We need [????] swer the question ; every sensible reader, [????] knows the infirmities of power, and the [????] interests of slavery and freedom, can [????] himself. It is enough for us to know that the [????] mission of one slave State increases the chances [????] the extension of slavery everywhere, for such will be its inevitable moral tendency. An immense public domain, as yet unvexed by the plough, and as well fitted for slave labor as any acres of God's world can be , already appeals to us, mutely but not less forcibly, for preservation from an evil suf-ficient to sap the foundations of a well-established empire, and ten times more fatal to a virgin State. And when Mr. Mace, or any other member of Con-gress, rises in his seat, and proposes to prohibit slavery in Kansas, he speaks not only for her, but for all her future sisters in the confederacy, not only for the present, but for unborn generations. No matter how few may be the notes which sus-tain his motion. Though defeated, it can never be disgracefully defeated, and it will be sure to answer some good purpose, if not the great one intended. The oftener  Northern members are obliged to say Yes ' or ' No on slavery issues, the better ; and when this question is put, we shall know how much dough has been baked in the fires of the recent elections. Nor can the advocates  of slavery complain that an attempt has been made, at this time, to restore the anti-slavery ordinance.  They were warned. over and over again during the last session, that this would be done.  When the Cabinet was striv-ing not only to send the curse of slavery to Kansas, but to send the curse of slavery to Kansas, but to stangle freedom in the House of Representatives, the struggling friends of sound legislation declared in advance that, though defeated, they would return to the contest.  The conspiracy was successful ; bribery, intimidation, a certain bold. unblushing impudence, and the influence of party drill, triumphed over ancient compacts and still more ancient principles.  We admit that the heart of the House was never with this false and dishon-est people-of justice to our colonies, and especially to the conquered subjects of our vast Indian Empire-of the exercise of the moral influence of this nation in favor of the total and universal extinc-tion of slavery and the slave trade; and, finally, of the Christian principles of Peace-especially the substitution of pacific arbitration, in all inter-national disputed, for the present senseless ab-surd and bloody appeal to the sword : and the gradual overthrow of those gigantic military in-stitutions of Europe which menace the tranquility of the world, are the strongest bulwarks of despot-ism, and the most formidable obstacles to the ad-vancement of civilization, and the triumphs of pure and undefiled religion. I shall hold MORALITY to be the true foundation of all POLITICS and shall first enquire-not what is EXPEDIENT, but what is RIGHT : regarding it as ever in the highest degree inexpedient, and in the end necessarily injurious, to depart from the prin-ciples of truth and rectitude. I shall endeavor to test all questions by the unadulterated standard of Christian ethics, and by their bearing- not on the prospects or projects of a party. but upon the widest and best interests of the human race ; try-ing to adhere to what is morally right-right everywhere, and right for all time.  Conducted on these principles. THE EMPIRE will not be a strict party paper, but will be the friend of every party that shall prove its desire to carry out, in whatever direction, the maxims of individual, national and universal justice. I have a high veneration for the BRITISH CONSTI-TUTUON ; but I do not regard every INSTITUTION that has grown up under it as of equal sacredness and value with the Constitution itself.  Institutions are but the machinery for promoting the liberties, and securing the rights of the people, and like all other things which are the offspring of mere human invention, are liable to defects. and should never be re-garded as the end itself.  Institutions for men, not men for institutions, will be the watchwords of this journal. I hold the opinion of Wordsworth, that 
Our life is turned 
Out of its course, whenever MAN is made
An offering, or a sacrifice, a tool,
Or implement, a passive thing employed
As a brute mean, without acknowledgment
Of common right or interest in the end.
In contemplating my future  editorial career, I neither expect nor desire to avoid controversy ; but it shall be my study and my effort to show myself an honorable and just-minded antagonist, and to pre-serve the columns of this paper unstained by cal-umny, and uncorrupted by selfishness. While I shall claim and exercise the liberty to know , to thing , to belive. and to utter, freely, according to my conscience,'  I shall, as I have ever done, most scrupulously respect the same right of free utter-ance in my contemporaries, and be ready to do battle for it as ardently on behalf of others as for myself. I enter upon my present labors and responsibili-ties unpatronised and unprotected by any party in Church or State. and I look for support to those only who respect individual independence and poli-tical integrity , and who may desire to aid me in an earnest effort to contribute something towards the creation of a public sentiment, that shall give ardor to virtue, confidence to truth, and freedom to mankind. I have toiled long enough in the cause of reform and progress to be prepared for any measure of dis-appointment which may befall me.  I have never yet stipulated, and do not now stipulate, for success. If I can satisfy myself that  I have done my duty, I shall rest contented with the issue. -GEORGE THOMPSON
SOUTHERN REVIVALS. The editor of the West-ern Christian Advocate says-' We have the follow-ing on authority that admits of no questioning : Recently, in a town of a certain slave State, a re-vival took place in the church under the charge of Rev. Mr.-----.  During the meeting, a slave-trader professed conversion, and joined the church, and a local preacher became much encouraged thereat.  Soon after the close of the meeting, the slave trader made a purchase from the local preacher of a slave woman who had a child at her breast.  The trader not wishing the child, and the mother refusing to go without it, strong cords were obtained ; a dray was sent for ; she was tied hands and feet, and was carried by main force and strapped down to the dray, and was thus driven off.'

Should the Companies here designated consent to re-ceive the BLOOD MONEY awarded to them by the General Government, for their services in kidnapping poor Burns, they will make their infamy sure and lasting. If they were ordered out, on that inglorious occasion, simply to preserve the peace of the city, (as Mayor Smith pretended,) then their remuneration is no con-cern of the General Government ; and behind this plea they have skilled till now, to shield themselves from popular contempt.  The acceptance of this BLOOD MONEY will constitute every officer and private, who took part in that tragedy, willing accomplices in kidnapping, and they will deserve to be hissed and groaned at afresh, every time they appear on parade.
REV. CALBIN FAIRBANK
The letter from Mrs. LAURA S. HAVILAND, on our first page, respecting the condition of this unfortunate victim of Southern despotism, will be read with a thrill of horror.  It will be recollected that Mr. Fairbank, while sojourning in Indiana, was actually abducted by a band of ruffians from Kentucky, carried into the lat-ter State, thrust into prison, and finally tried and sen-tenced to fifteen years' imprisonment in the Penitenti-ary, on the charge of having aided a female slave to obtain her freedom by flight.  He was seized against all law, and convicted without evidence.  His abduction (aside from the allegation made against him) should have promptly led the Governor of Indiana to demand his liberation, but [?????] was taken of it, and no [??????] followed among the people of that State.  And it appears that there is not hope of his pardon-the Governor of Kentucky declaring,' All the wealth of Kentucky would not make me pardon him.' It also appears that Mr. F. has been most cruelly flogged by order of the keeper of the prison, (Craig,) whose vil-lanous spirit has been freshly exhibited in his attempt to ruin the character of Miss Delia Webster, force her to abandon her property, and dlee from Indiana for self-preservation, because sympathising with the op-pressed. We trust this letter will have the widest cir-culation,, and be the means of deepening the popular abhorrence of slavery and all its abettors.
FATE OF ANTHONY BURNS.
The Evening Telegraph says it has information which is authentic, that this poor victim of a treacher-ous master and cowardly Mayor, was sold by the mis-erable Suttle to a North Carolina negro trader, (after $1400 had been tendered both here and in Virginia, and after he had promised to let Rev. Mr. Grimes have him,) for the sum of $700, with a condition in the bond that he should never be sold to go North. And this is the fate of this poor victim!
CONGRESS.
In the U. S. Senate, last week, Mr. Sumner pre-sented the memorial of the Bapist Free Mission Society of New England, praying for the repeal of the Kanzas-Nebraska Bill, and the Fugitive Slave Law. He moved that they be laid on the table, as Mr. Chase will soon call up his bill for the prohibition of slavery in the Ter-ritories.
Ex-Governor Dorr died on the morning of the 27th inst., about 8 o'clock, at the residence of his father, in Benefit street, Providence. that religious work has exercised a most important influence for good. The question, however it must be confessed, wore a gloomy aspect in that country, but if men of business and sense would consider how they would enhance the value of their land by abolishing slavery, they would take courage and do it.  If twenty millions of pounds sterling abolished slavery in the West Indies, eighty millions would effect the same great ob-ject in the United States. The time would come, he though, when it would be found expedient by the va-rious States to adopt this course. Major General THOMPSON next made a few observa-tions. He thought that Spain was able to effect eman-ciption in Cuba, from the fact that France has suc-ceeded in doing so in her colonies.  The Americans, he said, were going to take Cuba; but if the Spaniards would preserve that island to their rule, they must abol-ish slavery.  The English government could do much to bring about this happy result; and they has a great political interest in its accomplishment, for if Cuba be-came the possession of the Slave Power, nothing could save the West Indies from its grasp.  The question was one of the vast importance, as the possession of Cuba by the United States was only part of one vast scheme for the universal spread of slavery over all tropical re-gions. The Rev. JOHN WOODWARK seconded the resolution proposed by Mr. Price. He urged the importance of the wide-spread diffusion of suitable tracts and other pub-lications.  He thought the Anit-Slavery Reporter should be more generally read. The Rev. EDWARD MATHEWS, of Wisconsin, express-ed the opinion that the quiescent state of the anti-slavery question in England, referred to in Mr. Hinton's paper, was owing to the quieting and repressive influence ex-erted by churches and bodies of professing Christians in America over kindred churches on this side of the At-lantic. The resolution was then put to the vote, and unani-mously passed. The Rev. P. H. CORNFORD (late missionary to Jamai-ca) proposed the second resolution, which declared that the results of West India emancipation were on the whole truly gratifying and satisfactory ; and that most of  the evils existing in the West Indies were attributable either to the pernicious influences of slavery, or to other causes altogether irrespective of the Act of Emancipation. Mr. CRAWFORD, in the course of a long and able speech, mainly animadverted on the 'truck' and 'con-tract' systems, and the introduction of free emigrants, as exercising a very injurious influence upon the physi-cal and moral condition of the free laborers of the West India islands.  He paid a high tribute to the character of the negroes of those islands, and declared that they were a most industrious class; but, he asked, what has the commercial question to do with the right or the wrong of slavery ? As well might one ask what is the value of virtue, or the worth of justice. One out of every six of the colored population were members of Christian churches, and none were admitted without the most rigid test of their qualification.  The Baptist Missionary Society found that, at the present time, all the money they had ever spent in the West Indies was from those represented in chapels, school-houses, and other religious property built by colored communicants in Baptist churches. The great tread-,ill erected at or near Port Maria, under the apprehension that eman-cipation would engender a vast amount of crime among the blacks, had never been used, and he had not heard, during his long residence among them, of one od their number breaking into a house at night.  Indeed, their vices were quite of a venal character.  Black men oc-cupied pulpits, black men filled important posts in the press, and they even took their places as legislators in the House of Assembly. The speaker concluded by an eloquent denunciation of the doctrine that man can hold property in man. The Rev. Mr. HENDERSON, of British Guiana, second-ed the the resolution. He referred to the gigantic evil which slavery must necessarily create among the en-slaved population, many of which must still cling to Provisional Government, (which he should ever consider it an honor to have been associated with) was the ab-olition of slavery in the French colonies. They abol-ished it without transition, and in so doing, the plant-ers themselves had declared that the government had acted wisely.  In proof of this, he quoted from various colonial newspapers.  With regard to the insurrection of negroes at Martinique, that took place before the Act of Emancipation had taken effect-in fact, that was a result of the revolution at home.  He drew a rather gloomy picture of the present state of the colonies under the Empire. Slavery had been for ever abolished in the colonies by the decrees of the Republic, but much injustice was still perpetuated.  The Governor of Gua-daloupe had dismissed the Attorney General, and driven away the Bishops, because they refused to make their high offices subservient to compulsory labor. Pride fo caste, he though, was an evil which takes the longest time to cure.  It is because the free blacks have had the impudence to say,'Am I not as much as you?' that these difficulties have arisen. But there is order now in the Antills, as there is in Paris.  Any negro is liable to be arrested on the highway, if he have not a passport, for which he is obliged to pay. The educa-tion of the blacks is subjected to equally obnoxious reg-ulations.  He spoke of the evils of free immigration, connected with which there are always the evils of sla-very. But he found consolation in the fact, that the destiny of evil is to be temporary, of good to be ever-lasting.  He referred to the statement that the Europe-ian republican leaders had agreed to overlook American slavery.  It could not be so.  He, for one, as a Repub-lican, believed that slavery is nowhere so great a shame as in a republic. He denounced, in terms of strong in-dignation, the slavery of the United States, but believed that the American abolitionists would yet overthrow this, its last stronghold.  M. Schoelcher's address was frequently interrupted by the plaudits of the audience. In reply to a question, he stated that 120,000,000 francs had been paid as compensation to the slavehold-ers by the French government. Mr. STURGE stated that he believed no man had done more than Victor Schoelecher towards effecting emanci-pation in the French colonies. Mr CHAMEROVZOW said that he had ascertained from French colonial authorities, that the prosperity of the Bourbon and of the other islands had considerably in-creased since the abolition of slavery. Mr. G. W. ALEXANDER, after paying a tribute of re-spect to the anti-slavery labors of Schoelcher, Lamar-tine, and Arago, stated that, during a recent visit he had paid to Guadaloupe and Martinique, he was glad to find but little of the prejudice against color. The resolution was then passed unanimously. Mr. CHAMEROVZOW brought forward a resolution, which lamented the continued existence of the Cuban slave trade, and urged upon the Spanish Government the fulfilment of the solemn engagement to effect its abolition, which it had entered into by treaty, as well as by the acceptance of $400,000 as compensation. Mr. STURGE briefly moved, and Mr ISAAC BASS, of Brighton, seconded the resolution. Mr. RALPH CARR, of Waterford, urged the greater importance of the land slave trade over the sea slave trade, considering, as he did, that the latter could not exist without the former. After a suggestion from the Rev. James Ballantyne, M.A., of Edinburgh, Mr. PARKER PILLSBURY, of Boston, in a short but eloquent speech, referred to the deliberate violation of the slave trade statutes of the United States by the Government of that country, in proof of the uselessness of demonstrating with the Spanish authorities. Nice-teen thousand Africans were imported into the States every yer, and nobody could wonder at it, seeing that nearly every President is a slaveholder, and being one is a recommendation to the office. Slavery has only to say, 'Do this,' and it is done ; and it will obtain Cuba. The Chairman, Mr. Price, who had one interrupted Mr. Pillsbury in the course of his speech by a most pursed their purpose, in spite of many perils, of the bitterest persecution and reproach, and in the face of a corrupt public sentiment, and would encourage them to persevere in pleading for the millions yet bowed beneath the yoke, assured that under the Divine blessing, the righteousness of their cause will ultimately prevail. Mr. DUNCAN MCLEREN, late Lord Provost of Edin-burgh, seconded the resolution. He was glad to sup-port it, because it entered into no metaphysical subtle-ties or niceties, and most vehemently condemned slave-ry- an institution which he reguarded as containing all the worst evils that affict society.  He believed the resolution would have great weight, as the Americns are very susceptible of public opinion. Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, said that he rose to propose the insertion of a clause which he thought would supply a most important omission in the resolu-tion.  As far as it went, the resolution was admirable, but it did not go far as it went, the resolution was admirable, but it did not go far enough. It mentioned the anti-slavery Senators of the United States, but it carefully omitted all distinct reference to those whose claims were infinitely higher ; he alluded to the pioneers in the cause of abolition, the members of the American [damaged text] though quite prepared to do so if necessary, from a de-sire not to lead the way needlessly into discussions not essentially involved in the subject before them.  He was quite willing, adopting an expression used in the early part of the Conference, to ; let bygones be by-gones,' if they had determined for the future to stand on a broad and catholic platform, and to work with a pure and single-minded reference to the cause of the slave.  Nothing less than this could be satisfactory, and he called upon them to show that this was their in-tention by expressly naming in their resolution the American Anti-Slavery Society, and the American and Foreign.  He know, indeed, but little about the latter Society, which he seldom heard of when in America, and he only proposed it in deference to what he believ-ed to be the wishes and predilections of others ; but the former , which was the Parent Society, established in 1833, he saw in active operation, and they had the best evidence of its efficiency in the dread with which it was viewed by the Slave Power, and the abuse of which it is continually the subject in all parts of the Union.  It was, in truth, the embodiment and representative of the anti-slavery cause in America, and its supporters had to work continually in the face of obloquy and perse-cutions which must be seen and heard to be under-stood, and which nothing could enable them to with-stand but their undying faith in truth, in justice, and in God. He called upon them, therefore, distinctly to express their cordial sympathy with this intrepid, un-compromising, and truly Christian band of workers in the cause of human freedom. The Rev. W. JAMES, of Bristol, seconded the propo-sal. Mr. JOSEPH STURGE implored his friends not to press their amendment.  He thought that the resolution as it stood was sufficiently broad and comprehensive, and that harmony would best be preserved by the mention of no particular Society.

Refuge of Oppression.
Our Triumphs
No true friend of American principles can fail
to rejoice at the recent demonstrations in Massachusetts, 
made on the occasion of a banquet at
Boston, on the evening of the 28th ult., in commemoration
of the triumph of the American party
in the Old Bay State.
A perusal of the [s???hes] made on that occasion
will convince any[?] [?an] of ordinary intellect,
that a change has com[?] over the people of Massachusetts,
on a question of vital importance to the 
South; and on the proper adjustment of which,
the stability and perpetuity of the American Union
depend; we mean the question of slavery.
This is not the first nor the second time we have 
p[?] to show that the American party has
[hes] [?elf] upon the Constitution of the United
[?] and upon the compromises which led to 
the formation of our great and glorious Union.
It is not to be denied, that for years past, a
spirit of mad fanaticism has prevailed to a very 
dangerous extent in Massachusetts, and that the
Whig and Democratic parties there have equally
been infected with this political disease; nor can
it now be denied, that the conservative portions of 
both those former parties have adopted a radical 
cure for this common malady.
The people of Massachusetts are not behind their
fellow-citizens of the other States in the powers of 
discrimination, nor in those feelings of geniune
patriotism which are characteristic of American
freemen.
Prejudice or passion, or a wild fanaticism,
may take temporary possession of their faculties,
and make them, for the  moment, blink to their interests
or their duty; but consideration and calm
reflection are sure, in the end, to bring them back
to a recognition of their constitutional obligations.
All now see and understand, that the perpetuation
of the Union of these States depends upon
maintaining intact the compromises of the Constitution.
All now see and understand, that the Whig and
Democratic parties, as such, are divided geographically
upon the question of slavery.  None but a 
dolt will deny, that each of those parties has been
equally obsequious to abolitionism, and equally
anxious to gain power by pandering to the peculiar
prejudices of abolitionists and of foreigners.
Both parties were equally corrupt in their organizations;
and in their means of acquiring and holding
power.  A solemn conviction of the necessity
of a thorough change of political parties flashed
simultaneously upon the minds of all true patriots.
A reverence for the obligations of the Constitution,
and a holy love for the Union of these States,
at once seized upon the hearts and minds of the 
honest yeomanry of the country, and a revolution
was instantaneously effected.  To will and to do
are synonomous terms in the American vocabulary.
American minds willed a change, and American
votes brought about the change thus willed, while
politicians were resting in fancied security.
Let no man hereafter say that Massachusetts
will not adhere to the compromises of the Constitution.
On what other basis can her people expect
to preserve the Union?
How long would the American party exist, if
the floodgates of disunion were raised?  Why
abandon the Whig and Democratic organizations,
to form a national party, if that party is to be sectional
in its views and action?  If geographical
divisions are to disrupt the American party, why 
give it an existence which at best would be ephemeral?
But, we repeat, our friends in Massachusetts
have formed a national and not a sectional American
party, on the basis of sinking the question of
[?ery] for ever!  On no other basis could a na-
[?] party be formed.
it  be before the same instrument is employed to 
undermine the foundations of slavery? At pres-
ent, every element of abolition in our midst is par-
alyzed by a dread of exposure and punishment;
but the impunity which secrecy guarantees will
warm them into life and energetic action. It will
not be long before a spirit of hostility to our insti-
tutions will usurp control of the Know-Nothing
organization in the South, and wield it to the de-
struction of our interests. Know-Nothingism de-
rived not only its form, but its spirit and purposes,
from the North, and it will not betray its mission,
nor rebel against the authority of its creator.  
The machinery of secret political societies is an 
engine of terrible power and danger in the South,
and we should beware of erecting and working it 
in our midst. It may work well for a moment,
but, in the end, it will rend asunder the bonds of 
society by some unforeseen and overwhelming ex-
plosion.---Richmond Enquirer.

THE CHOCTAWS TAKING ACTION
IN RELATION TO THE AMERICAN BOARD OF MISSIONS.
The Fort Smith Herald, of Nov. 25, says that the 
late action of the American Board at Hartford, on 
the subject of the Choctaw Mission, was transmit-
ted to the Council of the Choctaw Nation, and Col.
Harkins, the chief, has addressed a message to the
Council, in which he says: 
'It seems that the American Board, at a recent
meeting, held at Hartford, Connecticut, had under
consideration the school act of the last session of the 
Choctaw General Council, and was so offended at it 
that they at once passed resolutions to dissolve
their connection with the Choctaw Schools. What 
are we to infer from this, but that they have their
secret designs, and a greater feeling for the wel-
fare of the slave among us, than for the Indians? 
There is no State in the South that would be wil-
ling for the Abolitionists to teach their slaves; and 
in fact they dare not attempt it; and it is because 
we are Indians, that they suppose they can have
this privilege amongst us. If the Abolitionists are
not satisfied to teach our children alone, then I say
for one, let the connection between us and the A-
merican Board be dissolved, and every Abolitionist
be driven out of the nation at once. We have
treated the Missionaries sent out to us by the A-
merican Board as well as ever Missionaries were
treated by an unenlightened people. We placed
our children in their hands. We gave them lands
to cultivate--and placed under their management
our school funds, thus showing on our part, not 
only a reliance upon their labors, but our open and 
confiding spirit, and never once have we persecuted
them, or attempted to drive them out of the coun-
try, even those whom we knew not to be good men. 
We have not prevented them from preaching to our
slaves. This has been the course pursued by the 
Choctaws towards the missionaries sent out 
among us; but we had a right to pass laws pro-
hibiting them from teaching our slaves, because we
knew them to be a dangerous people, who neither 
regarded the law of God, nor that of man as bind-
ing on their conduct or conscience. Because we 
have done this, the Board looks upon it as an out-
rage, and declares her intention to withdraw her
teachers from our schools. Let it be done, and the 
sooner the better. And now let us look for mis-
ionaries and teachers from such as we can live in 
peace and unity with, from whom we will have no 
fears that they will not teach us anything be-
yond what the Apostles of Jesus Christ taught in 
their day. 
If to please the Abolitionists, the Council should
repeal the act, which has given so much offence to 
the Board, you will see a party spirit arise among 
us, which will not be put down until every Aboli-
tionist is made to leave the Nation. Repeal that
act, and you may at once agree upon your Coun-
cil being dictated to, by the Abolitionists of the 
North. Our people need not fear that the schools
will cease on account of the threatened withdrawal 
of the present teachers, by the American Board, 
their faults, have at least proved themselves, under
all circumstances, the sincere and honest cham-
pions of the slave. 
Mr. Douglass, before he 'lift-
ed up his heel' against the American Anti-Slavery
Society, was not, we are told, the object of any 
very warm friendship on the part of Dr. Smith: 
indeed, if popular rumor is not utterly at fault, 
the two were at almost deadly feud. But, as Pi-
late and Herod were made friends by a common
hostility to Jesus, so the scholar from Glasgow and 
the fugitive from Maryland found the appropriate
cement for alliance, offensive and defensive, with
each other, in their common and deadly enmity to 
Old Organized Anti-Slavery. They eulogize each
other now, ad nauseam, whenever they can find
or make an occasion for speaking each other's names
and no opportunity for sneering at a Garrisonian
Abolitionist, or putting him in an odious light be-
fore the public, is suffered by either to pass unim-
proved. No misrepresentation is too flagrant, no
personality too mean, for the one to write and the 
other to print. So far as their detraction affects
us personally, we care not for it: but duty to the 
cause requires us to expose the blunders and false-
hoods which we have quoted above. 
1. In the first place, then, the Boston Anti-Sla-
very Lectures were instituted by the exclusive
agency, not of the Old Organized Abolitionists, but
of the class of anti-slavery men who have exulted
in the apostacy of Mr. Douglass from the American
A.S. Society. The chairman of the Committee of 
arrangements is Dr. S. G. Howe, who certainly is
not, and never was, a Garrison man. We submit, 
therefore, that the sin of inviting Gen. Houston and 
Mr. Burlingame, and of not inviting Frederick
Douglass, Dr. Pennington, and others, to lecture
in Boston, is one for which the friends of Old Or-
ganized Anti-Slavery are not responsible, and for 
which, consequently, they ought not to be abused. 
If Mr. Douglass is piqued because he was not in-
vited to lecture in Boston, he can settle the matter
with his new friends. If he is 'excluded' from
the Boston 'platform of lecture,' so also are oth-
er and better men--for example, Wm. Lloyd Gar-
rison and Rev. Theodore Parker. We have not 
heard that those gentlemen lay their 'exclusion' 
much to heart, and we think Dr. Smith would do 
his client more honor by silent acquiescence than 
by unmanly complaint. 
2. The Lectures in New York are under the con-
trol of the Old Organization, but Dr. Smith utters
an untruth in saying that he has seen the managers
of those lectures, or anybody else, 'exhibiting, or 
trying to exhibit, on their platform,' either Sam
Houston or Anson Burlingame. Neither of those 
gentlemen has ever been invited to take part in 
the New York Course, while J. Mercer Langston,
one of the very men who, the mendacious Dr. says, 
were 'excluded' 'because they are colored,' was
invited, and very earnestly invited, so to do, in a 
letter directed to him, at his place of residence, to 
which, however, from some unexplained cause, no
answer was ever received. 'There is no room for 
black men on the Old Organization platform,' says
the veracious Doctor; and yet, at the very moment
when he was penning the statement, he knew that
among the lecturers publicly announced to appear
in the Tabernacle Course was William Wells 
Brown, a colored man and a fugitive slave. Per-
haps, however, the Doctor and his party have con-
cluded to deny that any man is really 'colored' 
who has not by faithlessness to old friends proved
his heart to be as black as his skin. Tried by this
test, our friend Brown is certainly not a colored 
man, and we presume he will not soon aspire to the 
honor of a place in such a category. 
3. Dr. Smith's oracular annunciation that Old
Organized Anti-Slavery 'has become effete,' is too
cruel! We scarcely know how we could console
ourselves in view of the sad event, were it not for 
his kind declaration that it has come 'not through
any fault' of the Old Organizationists themselves, 
'but by a law of human nature.' This is indeed a 
comfort. 'They cowered before the Church in
Chinese Hall,' but they couldn't help it, poor fel-
lows, 'their cycle being complete' !! Charitable 
turers only half as much as he does white ones!
This reminds us of a defence offered in a suit for 
damage done to a borrowed kettle, viz. : first, that
the defendant never had the kettle--secondly, that 
it was cracked when it came into his possession--
and thirdly, that it was sound when it was return-
ed! So, the ??????? ????? ??? his readers that the 
naughty Old Organizationists have excluded
black men from their platform, and then proceeds
to arraign them upon the charge of employing them
at half price! But this latter accusation is as false
as the first. Mr. Remond's receipt, now in the 
hands of the Treasurer of the New York Anti-Slavery 
Society, will show that he was paid as much as 
Mr. Greeley, or Mr. Furness, and more than Pal-
frey, or Phillips, or Parker, or Emerson. Mr. 
Brown was invited to lecture this year for exactly 
the same compensation that was offered to his white
associates, and he will get his money, if it is not 
already in his pocket. 
8. The Dr. illustrates his manners at the same 
time that he reveals his malice in the allusion he 
makes to one of the editors of the Standard by name. 
Of course, having uttered nothing but a tissue of 
falsehoods on other points, it was not to be expect-
ed that he would stick at downright lying, when, 
to gratify his malignity, it became necessary for 
him both to exaggerate the salary and undervalue
the services of an Old Organized Abolitionist.--
There is only one way by which such an Abolition-
ist can commend himself to the Doctor's favor, viz.: 
by apostacy from his principles and treachery to 
his friends. Having done this, he would find a eu-
logist in the Doctor, even if he were growing richer
every day, and yet employing a sinuous mendicant
to tell the story of his poverty, and circulate the 
hat on his behalf. The Standard has no editor that 
would purchase anybody's friendship at such a 
price, and none to whom the friendship at such a 
price, and none to whom the friendship or the en-
mity of so unscrupulous a maligner as Dr. Smith 
is not alike indifferent.

From Frederick Douglass's Paper. 
CALVIN FAIRBANK. 
REFUGEE HOME SCHOOL, 
Nov. 30th, 1854.
FRIEND FREDERICK,----An inquiry appeared in 
your paper, a few months since, for Calvin Fair-
bank. A voice has just reached us from him, in 
'Frankfort Prison,' through a friend, who called 
on us by his request--has been his room-mate
from the time he entered the penitentiary until
the first of the present month (November.) We, 
therefore, hasten to respond, bearing to 'many
inquirers' painful tidings of the severe treatment
he has been and still is receiving, at the hands of 
Kentucky authorities, whose 'tender mercies are 
cruel' ; on account of which, his health became
much impaired, but, through the kindness of the 
physician and foreman of the prison, his health,
up to the first, was improving. 
We give facts, as received from the friend above
referred to. Calvin's brother applied to the Gov-
ernor of Kentucky for a pardon, by paying what-
ever might be required for Tamer, (the aided
slave,) but was repulsed by the unrelenting re-
ply, 'Mr. Fairbank, you may as well understand
first as last, that all the wealth of Kentucky
would not make me pardon your brother; he can-
not be pardoned.' Upon which, he begged the 
privilege of Craig (the warden of the prison) to
permit his unfortunate brother to receive small
sums of money, as other prisoners did ; but this 
favor was also denied. After which, Mr. Craig
asked Calvin if he would have Tamer brought back, 
if, upon her rendition, the authorities would par-
don him. The reply was, 'I cannot conscienstious-
ly consent to such a proposition. As hard as it is,
to be forever in this world separated from all that 
life holds dear, I must yield to my hard fate, and 
die within this prison wall.' He was then placed 
under still more severe discipline. When news
reached the prison that Craig was shot at Madison,
Ind., in the Delia Webster affair, (the circum-
stances of which are familiar to all the readers of 
THE MILITARY POWER IN TIME OF
PEACE. 
As we have elected a new administration for the 
charge of the city, the time is a fit one for some
study of the rights, which, by the election, the
officers chosen have gained over our lives and
neoparty. 
The Mayor has laid down, in his speech to ???
supporters, with a good deal of care, apparently,
the principle which is to guide them, as follows : 
'When duty says one thing, and law another, I 
shall not let my sympathies stand in the way of 
my duty as a magistrate.' 
This statement may be very well for those who 
understand it. We do not. We have the im-
pression, however, that it is worth study, as em-
bodying the principle under which the troops were 
paraded and commanded here last spring. It was 
very clear, at the time, that this was not done in 
conformity with law. It was not under any prin-
ciple laid down in the Bill of Rights or the Stat-
ute Books. It seems the more probable, therefore, 
that in the new order, there is some secret princi-
ple of government, which gives Mayors the power
to put generals, colonels and regiments under the 
command and pay of United States marshals; and 
that this principle is dimly shadowed out in the 
statement that duty was on one side, and law on
the other. 
We have not been without hopes, that while dif-
ferent Grand Juries were blowing into a flame one 
and another of the embers of that sad week in 
May, it might come within the province of some 
of them to inquire respecting the authority un-
der which the troops were then mustered and pa-
raded. No such inquiry is as yet public, however,
and it may have been conducted only in the coun-
cils of that other tribunal, to which our civil offi-
cers swear allegiance before they take the oath of
office as Mayors of Aldermen. If it were conduct-
ed there, we may presume that the decision was, 
that while the law said one thing, the Mayor's duty 
said another. 
It is worth recollection by the public, however,
that the city of Boston owes all that it is, and all 
that it enjoys, to the very principle of law, which 
(last spring trampled upon) compels the constant
subordination of the military to the civil authority.
When, in 1768, the English government, by way 
of intimidating the town of Boston, ordered three
regiments into the town, that order was at once
robbed of its danger to the people, from the fact,
equally known to people and troops, that they
could not act but by order of a magistrate. It
was October, and they had no barracks in town.
The Governor summoned the justices to provide
them. The justices refused. The officers dared
not provide barracks, because they knew that at 
English law they should be cashiered; that the 
civil authority must act, and not they. When, at 
great expense to the Crown, this difficulty was got
over, and houses hired as if by a private citizen by
the commander, it proved at once that the troops
had nothing to do. 'Every one knew that they could
not be employed, except on a requisition from a civil
officer.' These are Mr. Bancroft's words. There 
was not a magistrate in the colony that saw any
reason for their being there, and they were as 
powerless, therefore, as if they had been in Eng-
land. Hutchinson, the Tory Governor, knew this; 
the English ministry knew it. It was not the want
of troops which weakened them. It was the want
of magistrates to give the orders to the troops.
It never occurred to them that they could, by proc-
lamation, elevate a military commander above the 
law, even for a day. They did not know that duty 
could command one thing, and law another. 
On the other hand, the patriot leaders under-
stood this fundamental law of constitutional liberty
as well as the tory ministry. And when it came
to be their turn to order out troops, they obeyed it. 
That was then the fashion in Boston. When, af-
ter the Boston massacre, the English officers had
promised to remove the troops to the castle, the
town ordered out a body of military as a watch
until they did so. This was the most humiliating
dence, Missouri, and Louis Napoleon would have
aobut as much legal right to represent Kanzas in 
Congress. I must say that Gov. Reeder acted the 
part of an honorable and honest man, and endeav-
ored, by every means in his power, to have the 
election fairly conducted. He appointed the best 
and most reliable men he could find as judges, with 
instructions to put upon oath all who were sus-
pected of coming into the Territory for the mere
purpose of voting. The Territory was divided into
nineteen districts.
I happened to be in Westport, a town only three
miles from the river, and the same distance from 
the Kanzas line, the Sunday ?? Monday previous
to the election, and saw all that was going on in 
that quarter. During the w?? of Sunday, per-
sons passed through that ??? in companies of 
from two to thirty, in bugg?? wagons, on horse-
back, and on mules. Most of them came provided
with the institutions peculia? the country--pis-
tols, bowie-knives, and wh?? ; and were not at
all choice in their language ???? particularly when
speaking of those who da??? to differ from them
in opinion. Many of the ?? registered their names
at the hotels as residing ??? ll the towns on the 
Missouri side of the river and openly laughed at 
the idea of ever making their home in the terriroty.
On Monday morning, the tide of emigration re-
commenced and continued throughout the day. 
Every vehicle that had whe??? to run, and every
animal that had legs to go, w?????????? ght??? into re-
quisition to carry these 'free and ????????????
ters to the polls, and by Monday ?????
were scarcely men enough left in the ????
care of the women and children. N?????
whole male population, including lawyers, doe???
editors, landlords, merchants and loafers, all had
gone over to Kanzas, to show by their presence
their approval and appreciation of the great prin-
ciple of 'popular sovereignty' ! Most of these
gentlemen went to a point known as 'One Hun-
dred and Ten' to cast their votes, and when the 
return from that district was received, it showed a 
poll of over six hundred votes--and all for Whit-
field--when every man in Kanzas knows that there
are not over fifty legal voters in the district. Dur-
ing this emigration, the whiskey trade was quite
brisk in Westport. I heard one of the grocers say
he had sold eighty gallons on Monday. At least
five hundred men passed through Westport in these
two days. 
On election day, I happened to be in the neigh-
borhood of Leavensworth, and walked down to the
poll--and may the Lord preserve me from ever
witnessing another such exhibition of 'popular
sovereignty.' The town of Weston, six miles above 
Fort Leavensworth, is the head-quarters in that
region of the Missouri tribe, and the ferry across
the Missouri is about half-way between that town 
and the Fort. At least three hundred men crossed
the ferry that morning, and passed through the 
Fort grounds down to the place of voting. As soon
as the poll opened, the window was taken posses-
sion of by a party of thirty or forty ruffians, who 
stood there until night, cursing, swearing at, and 
brow-beating every man w ho dared to vote against
Whitfield. They were armed to the teeth, and de-
termined to vote at all hazards, regardless of all
honor, law and justice. Not even the sanctity of
an oath could debar these men from carrying out
their purposes. I heard men openly proclaim, with 
the fumes of bad whiskey issuing from their throats,
and with the name of the great Jehovah on their
lips, that they had 'sworn to all that was asked of 
them' : and I heard one of the Judges who held
the election declare that 'some of them came up 
and swore that they lived in Kanzas, and intened
to make it to their permanent home, who no more in-
tended to leave Missouri than they intended going
to Egypt.' Drunkenness and fighting were the or-
der of the day. Stones were thrown and pistols
fired through the windows into the room occupied
by the officers ; and a number of anonymous letters
were sent into their rooms, threatening personal
violence, and the destruction of the house, if they
persisted in swearing their men and rejecting their
votes. Those who were suspected of not belong-

     A reverence for the obligations of the Constitu-
tion, and a holy love for the Union of these States,
at once seized upon the hearts and minds of the
honest yeomanry of the country, and a revolution
was instantaneously effected. To will and to do
are synonoymous terms in the American vocabulary.
American minds willed a change, and American
votes brought about the change thus willed, while
politicians were resting in fancied security.
     Let no man hereafter say that Massachusetts
will not adhere to the compromises of the Consti-
tution. On what other basis can her people ex-
pect to preserve the Union?
     How long would the American party exist, if
the floodgates of disunion were raised? Why
abandon the Whig and Democratic organizations,
to form a national party, if that party is to be sec-
tional in its views and action? If geographical
divisions are to disrupt the American party, why
give it an existence which at best would be ephem-
eral?
     But, we repeat, our friends in Massachusetts
have formed a national and not a sectional Amer-
ican party, on the basis of sinking the question of

                       _____________________________________
                         SPIRIT OF KNOW-NOTHINGISM
     The declaration that Know-Nothingism is not inimical to the interests of the South is a deception and a snare.  We judge the tree by its fruits. The Know-Nothings boast of their victories in the North, and in every instance, their success has been won at the expense of the rights of the South.  they have openly avowed their hatred of slavery, and their determination to break down its guarantees.  In Massachusetts, where their success was most decisive and complete, they struck down every man who had betrayed any respect for the constitutional rights of the South, and put the government in the possession persons of the most fanatical feelings. In New Jersey, in New York, in Ohio, in Illinois, in Indiana, in Michigan - indeed, wherever they have triumphed in a popular election, they succeeded by an alliance with the enemies of the South.  They have stricken down every true and brave man from the North whom they could reach with their assassin's dagger, and have filled the next Congress with a motley crew of crazy fanatics and profligate demagogues.  They have not sent to Congress a single man of known fidelity to the Couth. Against this incontestable and damning fact, no fictitious platform and non cheap professions of patriotism will avail to deceive the South as to the spirit and aim of Know-Nothingism.
     There is no community on earth, to the safety of which publicity of political discussion and personal responsibility are so essential as to the States of the South.  Their institutions cannot be over-thrown by open assault, but they may be undermined by the hidden treachery of organized societies, whose agents are shielded from responsibility and punishment by an impenetrable veil of secrecy.  If the efficiency of secret societies for the accomplishment of political purposes is vindicated by the success of Know-Nothingism, how long will try, even those whom [?].
We have not prevented them from preaching to our slaves. This has been the course pursued by the Choctaws towards the missionaries sent out among us; but we had a right to pass laws prohibiting them from teaching our slaves, because knew them to be a dangerous people, who neither regarded the law of God, nor that of man as binding on their conduct or conscience.  Because we have done this, the Board looks upon it as an outrage, and declares her intention to withdraw her teachers from our schools. Let it be done, and the sooner the better.  And now let us look for missionaries and teachers from such as we can live in peace and unity with, from whom we will have no fears that they will not teach us anything beyond what the Apostles of Jesus Christ taught in their day.


     

208 THE LIBERATOR.  DECEMBER 29.
POETRY.
For the Liberator.
A VISION.
'Their patience was at last provoked into despair.  
On every side they rose in multitudes, armed with
rustic weapons, and with irresistible fury. The yas-
serted the natural rights of men, but they asserted 
them with the most savage curelty.' - GIBBON.

Faintly, from far Southern valleys, 
Shadowed 'neath their deep blue skies,
Echo sounds of joy and triumph -
Hymns which had their birth in sighs.

May a hearth is stained with blood-drops -
Many a home-star lieth low -
But th' oppressor's fallen - fallen -
And that softens half their wo.

'Long, oh Lord, thou has endured them,
And this people suffered long;
But Thy faithful word insured them
Rescue, at the last, from wrong.

'In Thy name, so high and holy,
Hath their host to conquest gone;
But they claimed the triumph solely,
When the victories were won.

'In their wierd enchantments strengthened,
Firm in antique bond and spell,
Ever still their chains they lengthened,
Ever still their boastings swell:

'But Thou cam'st in might and glory!
And, before Thy outstretched arm,
Where the powers famed in story?
Where their scourge, their brand, their charm?

Lo! they tremble [?] their altars! -
(Golden shrine purple dyed!)
And each priestly [?] ut falters,
Muttering now words of pride!

For, from every [h?] [?nd] valley,
(Sweetest incens[?] [?he] skies,)
Echo Freedom's [lo?] [?sannas] -
Hymns which [h?] [?ir] birth in sighs!

THE SNOW-SHOWER.
BY WM. [C?LEN] BRYANT.
Stand here by [m?] and turn, I pray,
[?] thy gentle eyes;
[?] over it, heavy and gray,
[?] and silent the water lies;
[?] of that frozen mist the snow
[?n] wavering flakes begins to flow;
Flake after flake,
They sink in the dark and silent lake.

See how in a living swarm they come
Fron the chambers beyond that misty veil!
Some hover awhile in the air, and some
Rush prone from the sky like summer hail.
All, dropping swiftly or settling slow,
Meet, and are still in the depth below;
Flake after flake,
Dissolved in the dark and silent lake.

Here, delicate snow-stars, out of the cloud,
Come floating downward in airy play, 
Like spangles dropped from the glistening crowd
That whiten by night the milky way;
There, broader and burlier masses fall;
The sullen water buries them all;
Flake after flake,
All drowned in the dark and silent lake.

And some, as on tender wings they glide
From their chilly birth-cloud, dim and gray,
Are joined in their fall, and, side by side,
Come clinging along their unsteady way;
As friend with friend, or husband with wife,
Makes, hand in hand, the passage of life,
Each mated flake
Soon sinks in the dark and silent lake.

Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste
Stream down the snows, till the air is white,
As, myriads by myriads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their shadowy height.
The fair frail creatures of middle sky,
What speed they make with their grave so nigh!
Flake after flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!

I see in thy gentle eyes a tear;
They turn to me in sorrowful thought;
Thou thinkest of friends, the good and dear,
Who were for a time, and now are not;
Like these fair children of cloud and frost, 
That glisten a moment, and then are lost,
Flake after flake,
All lost in the dark and silent lake.

Yet look again, for the clouds divide;
A gleam of blue on the water lies;
[?]y, on the mountain side,
[?] from the opening skies,

MADAME CARTEAUX, having removed to 284 Washington Street, avalis herself of this medium for tendering thanks to the Ladies of Boston and vicinity for the liberal patronage awarded her, and would respectfully assure them that, by unremitting endeavors to please, she hopes for a continuance of their favors.
Her arrangements for cutting and dressing Ladies' and Children's Hair for Dyeing and Champooing, are such as win the tribute of praise from all.
She has a Hair Restorative which cannot be excelled as it produces new hair where baldness had taken place.
Her chemical researches have developed an inimitable Hair Dye, warranted not to smut, (a desideratum looked for.) Her Ne Plus Ultra, for renovating the complexion, removing freckles, &c., is fast commending itself to favor. For all her compounds and their application she warrants satisfaction, or demands no pay.

Boston, May 13.

 

As friend with friend, or husband with wife,
Makes, hand in hand, the passage of life,
Each mated flake
Soon sinks in the dark and silent lake.

Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste
Stream down the snows, till the air is white,
As, myriads by myriads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their shadowy height.
The fair frail creatures of middle sky,
What speed they make with their grave so nigh!
Flake by flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!

I see in thy gentle eyes a tear;
They turn to me in sorrowful thought;
Thou thinkest of friends, the good and dear,
Who were for a time, and now are not;
Like these fair children of cloud and frost,
That glisten a moment, and then are lost,
Flake after flake,
All lost in the dark and silent lake.

Yet look again, for the clouds divide;
A gleam of blue on the water lies;
[?], on the mountain side,
from the opening skies.
that few between
nore is seen;
ake
At rest in the dark and silen [?] e.

CLOSING OF THE [?]EDGER
BY HENRY MO[?]
Close up the Ledger.
Slowly and sadly, but let it [?]
Mournfully passeth by t[?]
What are the records for yo   me
Left by the failing fingers   ?--
What for passion, and what [?]ve?
What for avarice and cri[?]
What for hope, and the He[?]  ove?
What of the Ledger, T[?]

Close up the Ledger, Ti[?]e!
Many a name, for good or ill,
Fills to the margin your blot[?] scroll--
Many a high and haughty will,
many a low but humble soul;
Yet one page to each is given,
Marking the changing path we climb,
Holding the balance of hell or heaven:--
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Say, are we creditors for aught?
Have we a store of noble deeds,
Springing from high and generous thought,
Such as our fallen brother needs?
Have we laid up for coming years
Words to weave in a funeral rhyme,
Names that will call up grateful tears?
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Say what promises hope has drawn--
Say what drafts stern truth has paid;
Say what bankrupt hopes have gone
In the grave with memory laid;
Say if the heart has kept its own,
Gathering beauty with lure and lime,
Say what fabrics are o'erthrown:--
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Hark the knell of the year gone by!
Have I run out my golden sand?
Where shall I be when the next shall die?
Where shall the soul within me stand?
Naught beyond may the Ledger tell;
Naught be known but in guilt and crime;
Listen! I hear the New Year's bell!
Shut up the Ledger, Time!

FREE SPEECH.
Must we be told, beside the plough,
What we must speak, and when, and how?

respectfully assure them that, by unremitting endeavors
to please, she hopes for a continuance of their favors
Her arrangements for cutting and dressing ladies'
and Children's Hair, for Dyeing and Champooing, are

place.

looked for.) Her Ne Plus Ultra, for renovating the
complexion, removing freckles, &c., is fast commending 
itself to favor. For all her compounds and their application
she warrants satisfaction, or demands no pay.

WENDELL PHILLIPS ON A General AMNESTY. Mr Phillips discusses, in a current number of the National Standard, the subject of "General Amnesty." He thinks its proposition is an evidence of the weakness of the Republican party. He is persuaded that is will jeopardize the labor interest in the South, while it will conciliate neither the northern Democrat nor the Southern rebel. He admonishes the Republican party after this peculiar fashion:
Let the Republican party, which ought still to remember the national curses it earned when its sentimental parade of magnanimity put [Johson?] where Hamlin belonged-let it now repair in what little ? it can, the evil it then wrought. Let it shrink from bringing upon us five hundred thousand Johnsons. One such lost us one quarter of the benefits of our victory. Amnesty the rest, and you put in peril what by desperate efforts we saved from a traitor President, and a Chief justice duped by hope of office and a Senate bought with gold.
Go to work. Crush the Ku Klux with one pitiless hand. Hold out the other in warm welcome to the Labor Movement of the North. They wear the laurel (whether justly theirs or not) of having abolished chattel slavery. Let them now aspire to earn that of putting an end to wages-slavery. Let these rich men in their ranks send New England into the Carolinas and Georgia by building villages along the railways. Thus they feed railways by local freight and travel. Thus they secure the protection of a rich corporation for incipient towns; thus negro immigrate massed together are strong enough to baulk local spite or violence; thus, like O'Connell and Cobden, they control Congressional districts. In other words, let the party seek allies in the negro and the workingmen. South and North, and not among the soured rebel landholders of the South. No need, after such measures, to cringe uselessly to amnestied rebels for support; no fear then that 'the hands which guided the vessel through the war will not hold the helm long enough to anchor her in a safe harbor. 


A MONODY.

[?The] Death of Wendell Phillips.)

One by one they go 
Into the unknown dark- 
Starlit brows of the brave, 
Voices that drew men's souls, 
Rich is the land, O Death, 
Can give you dead like our dead!-
Such as he from whose hand 
The magic web of romance 
Slipt, and the art was lost! 
Such as he who erewhile- 
The last of the Titan brood-
With his thunder the Senate shook; 
Or he who, beside the Charles, 
Untoucht or envy or hate, 
Tranced the word with his song; 
Or that other, that grey-eyed seer 
Who in pastoral Concord ways 
With Plato and Hafiz walked.
                                                                                II.
Not of them was the man 
Whose wraith, through the mists of night.
Through the shuddering wintry stars, 
Has passed to the eternal morn. 
Fit were the moan of the sea 
And the clashing of cloud on cloud 
For the passing of the soul!

Ever he faced the storm! 
No weaver of rare romance, 
No patient framer of laws, 
No maker of the wonderous rhyme, 
No bookman wrapt in his dream, 
His was the voice that rang 
In the fight like a bugle call, 
And yet could be tender and low 
As when, on a night in June, 
The hushed wind sobs in the pines, 
His was the eye that flashed 
With a saber's azure gleam, 
Pointing to the heights unwon!
                                                                             III.
Not for him were these days 
Of clerkly and sluggish calm-
To the petrel the swooping gale! 
Austere he seemed, but the hearts 
Of all men beat in his breast; 
No fetter but galled his wrist, 
No wrong that was not his own. 
What if those eloquent lips 
Curled with the old-time scorn? 
What if in needless hours 
His quick hand closed on the halt? 
'T was the smoke from the well-won fields.
That clouded the veteran's eyes. 
A fighter this to the end!

Ah, if in coming times 
Some giant evil arise, 
And Honor falter and pale, 
His were a name to conjure with! 
God send his like again! 
[The century.] [Thomas Bailey Aldrich.

Ambition calls to dizzy heights; 
But youth is weak, though youth is strong, 
'T is tempered steel that lasts for long. 
In the refining process slow, 
We sigh for faith, we call for aid, 
We cry-For what were all things made? 
We dwell upon Salvation's plan,

No Union with Slaveholders!
--
The US Constitution is a covenant with death and an agreement with hell.
-'Yes! IT CANNOT BE DENIED - the slaveholding lords of the South prescribed, as a condition of their assent to the Constitution, three special provisions to SECURE THE PERPETUITY OF THEIR DOMINION OVER THEIR SLAVES. The first was the immunity, for twenty years, of preserving the African slave trade; the second was THE STIPULATION TO SURRENDER FUGITIVE SLAVES - an engagement positively prohibited by the laws of God, delivered from Sinai; and, thirdly, the exaction, fatal to the principles of popular representation, of a representation for SLAVES - for articles of merchandize, under the name of persons ..... in fact, the oppressor representing the oppressed! ... To call government thus constituted a democracy, is to insult the understanding of mankind. It is doubly tainted with the infection of riches and slavery. Its reciprocal operation upon the government of the nation is to establish an artificial majority in the slave representation over that of the free people, in the American Congress; and THEREY TO MAKE THE PRESERVATION, PROPOGATION AND PERPETUATION OF SLAVERY THE VITAL AND ANIMATING SPIRIT OF THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT.' - John Quincy Adams.

REFUGE OF OPPRESSION.
OUR TRIUMPHS.
No true friend of American principles can fail to rejoice at the recent demonstrations in Massachusetts, made on the occasion of a banquet at Boston, on the evening of the 28th ult., in commemoration of the triumph of the American party in the Old Bay State.
A perusal of the speeches made on that occasion will convince any man of ordinary intellect, that a change has come over the people of Massachusetts, on a question of vital importance to the South: and on the proper adjustment of which, the stability and perpetuity of the American Union depend: we mean the question of slavery.
This is not the first nor the second time we have had occasion to show that the American party has planted itself upon the Constitution of the United States, and upon the compromises which led to the formation of our great and glorious Union.
It is not to be denied, that for years past, a spirit of mad fanaticism has prevailed to a very dangerous extent in Massachusetts, and that the Whig and Democratic parties there have equally been infected with this political disease; nor can it now be denied, that the conservative portions of both those former parties have adopted a radical cure for this common malady.
The people of Massachusetts are not behind their fellow-citizens of the other States in the powers of discrimination, nor in those feelings of genuine patriotism which are characteristic of American freemen.
Prejudice or passion, or a wild fanaticism, may take temporary possession of their faculties, and make them, for a moment, blind to their interests or their duty; but consideration and calm reflection are sure, in the end, to bring them back to a recognition of their constitutional obligations. 
All now see and understand, that the perpetuation of the Union of these States depends upon maintaining intact the compromises of the Constitution. 
All now see and understand, that the Whig and Democratic parties, as such, are divided geographically upon the question of slavery. None but a dolt will deny, that each of those parties has been equally obsequious to abolitionism, and equally anxious to gain power by pandering to the peculiar prejudices of abolitionists and of foreigners. Both parties were equally corrupt in their organizations, and in their means of acquiring and holding power. A solemn conviction of the necessity of a thorough change of political parties flashed simultaneously upon the minds of all true patriots. 
A reverence for the obligations of the Constitution, and a holy love for the Union of these States, at once seized upon the hearts and minds of the honest yeomanry of the country, and a revolution was instantaneously effected. To will and to do are synonomous terms in the American vocabulary. American minds willed a change, and American votes brought about the change thus willed, while politicians were resting in fancied security. 
Let no man hereafter say that Massachusetts will not adhere to the compromises of the Constitution. On what other basis can her people expect to preserve the Union?
How long would the American party exist, if the floodgates of disunion were raised? Why abandon the Whig and Democratic organization, to form a national party, if that party is to be [???] -

it be before the same instrument is employed to undermine the foundations of slavery? At present, every element of abolition in our midst is paralyzed by a dread of exposure and punishment; but the impunity which secrecy guarantees will warm them into life and energetic action. It will not be long before a spirit of hostility to our institutions will usurp control of the Know-Nothing organization in the South, and wield it to the destruction of our interests. Know-Nothingism derived not only its form, but its spirit and purposes, from the North, and it was not betray its mission, nor rebel against the authority of its creator. The machinery of secret political societies is an engine of terrible power and danger in the South, and we should beware of erecting and working it in our midst. It may work well for a moment, but, in the end, it will rend asunder the bonds of society by some unforeseen and overwhelming explosion. - Richmond Enquirer

THE CHOCTAWS TAKING ACTION
IN RELATION TO THE AMERICAN BOARD OF MISSIONS. 
The Fort Smith Herald,  of Nov. 25, says that the late action of the American Board at Hartford, on the subject of the Choctaw Mission, was transmitted to the Council of the Choctaw Nation, and Col. Harkins, the chief, has addressed a message to the Council, in which he says:
'It seems that the American Board, at a recent meeting, held at Hartford, Connecticut, had under consideration the school act of the last session of the Choctaw General Council, and was so offended at it that they at once passed resolutions to dissolve their connection with the Choctaw Schools. What are we to infer from this, but that they have their secret designs, and a greater feeling for the welfare of the slave among us, than for the Indians? There is no State in the South that would be willing for the Abolitionists to teach their slaves; and in fact they dare not attempt it; and it is because we are Indians, that they suppose they can have this privilege amongst us. If the Abolitionists are not satisfied to teach our children alone, then I say for one, let the connection between us and the American Board be dissolved, and every Abolitionist be driven out of the nation at once. We have treated the Missionaries sent out to us by the American Board as well as ever Missionaries were treated by an unenlightened people. We placed our children in their hands. We gave them lands to cultivate - and placed under their management our school funds, [?] showing on our part, not only a reliance upon their labors, but our open and confiding spirit, and never once have we persecuted them, or attempted to drive them out of the country, even those whom we knew not to be good men. We have not prevented them from preaching to our slaves. This has been the course pursued by the Choctaws towards the missionaries sent out among us; but we had a right to pass laws prohibiting them from teaching our slaves, because we knew them to be a dangerous people, who nether regarded the law of God, nor that of man as binding on their conduct or conscience. Because we have done this, the Board looks upon it as an outrage, and declares her intention to withdraw her teachers from our schools. Let it be done, and the sooner the better. And now let us look for missionaries and teachers from such as we can live in peace and unity with, from whom we will have no fears that they will not teach us anything beyond what the Apostles of Jesus Christ taught in their day.'

their faults, have at least proved themselves, under
all




turers only half as much as he does white ones! This reminds us of a defence offered in a suit for damage done to a borrowed kettle, viz. : first, that the defendant never had the kettle - secondly, it was cracked when it came into his possession - and thirdly, that it was sound when it was returned! So, the Doctor first tells his readers that the naughty Old Organizationalists have 'excluded' black men from their platform, and then proceeds to arraign them upon the charge of employing them at half price! But this latter accusation is as false as the first. Mr. Remond's receipt, now in the hands of the Treasurer of New York Anti-Slavery Society, will show that he was paid as much as Mr. Greeley, or Mr. Furness, and more than Palfrey, or Phillips, or Parker, or Emerson. Mr. Brown was invited to lecture this year for exactly the same compensation that was offered to his white associates, and he will get his money, if it is not already in his pocket. 
8. The Dr. illustrates his manners at the same time that he reveals his malice in the allusion he makes to one of the editors of the Standard by name. Of course, having uttered nothing but a tissue of falsehoods on other points, it was not to be expected that he would stick at downright lying, when, to gratify his malignity, it became necessary for him both to exaggerate the salary and undervalue the services of the Old Organized Abolitionist. - 
There is only one way by which such an Abolitionist can commend himself to the Doctor's favor, viz. : by apostacy from his principles and treachery to his friends. Having done this, he would find a eulogist in the Doctor, even if he were growing richer every day, and yet employing a sinuous mendicant to tell the story of the poverty, and circulate the hat in his behalf. The Standard has no editor that would purchase anybody's friendship or the enmity of so unscrupulous a maligner as Dr. Smith is not alike indifferent.

From Frederick Douglass's Paper.
CALVIN FAIRBANK.
REFUGEE HOME SCHOOL, NOV. 30th, 1854. }
FRIEND FREDERICK, -  An inquiry appeared in your paper, a few months since, for Calvin Fairbank. A voice has just reached us from him, in 'Frankfort Prison,' through a friend, who called on us by his request - has been his room-mate [?] the time he entered the penitentiary until the first of the present month (November.) We, therefore, hasten to respond, bearing to 'many inquirers' painful tidings of the severe treatment he has been and still is receiving, at the hands of Kentucky authorities, whose 'tender mercies are cruel'; on account of which, his health became much impaired, but, through the kindness of the physician and foreman of the prison, his health, up to the first, was improving. 
We give facts, as received from the friend above referred to. Calvin's brother applied to the Governor of Kentucky for a pardon, by paying whatever might be required for Tamer, (the aided slave,) but was repulsed by the unrelenting reply, 'Mr. Fairbank, you may as well understand first as last, that all the wealth of Kentucky would not make me pardon your brother; he cannot be pardoned.' Upon which, he begged the privilege of Craig (the warden of the prison) to permit his unfortunate brother to receive small sums of money, as other prisoners did; but this...

THE MILITARY POWER IN TIME OF PEACE.
As we have elected a new administration for the charges of the city, the time is a fit one for some study of the rights, which, by the election, the officers chosen have gained over our lives and property.
The Mayor has laid down, in his speech to his supporters, with a good deal of care, apparently, the principle which is to guide them, as follow: 'When duty says one thing, and law another, I shall not let my sympathies stand in the way of my duty as a magistrate.'
This statement may be very well for those who understand it. We do not. We have the impression, however, that it is worth study, as embodying the principle under which the troops were paraded and commanded here last spring. It was very clear, at the time, that this was not done in conformity with law. It was not under any principle laid down in the Bill of Rights or the Statute Books. It seems the more probably, therefore, that in the new order, there is some secret principle of government, which gives Mayors the power to put generals, colonels and regiments under the command and pay of United States marshals; and that this principle is dimly shadowed out in the statement that duty was on one side, and law on the other. 
We have not been without hopes, that while different Grand Juries were blowing into a flame one and another of the embers of that sad week in May, it might come from within the province of some of them to inquire respecting the authority under which the troops were then mustered and paraded. No such inquiry is as yet public, however, and it may have been conducted only in the councils of that other tribunal, to which our civil officers swear allegiance before they take the oath of office as Mayors or Aldemen. If it were conducted there, we may presume that the decision was, that while the law said one thing, the Mayor's duty said another. 
It is worth recollection by the public, however, that the city of Boston owes all that it is, and all that it enjoys, to the very principle of law, which (last spring trampled upon) compels the constant subordination of the military to the civil authority. When, in 1768, the English government, by way of intimidating the town of Boston, ordered three regiments into the town, that order was at once robbed of its danger to the people, from the fact, equally known to people and troops, that they could not act but by order of a magistrate. It was October, and they had no barracks in town. The Governor summoned the justices to provide them. The justices refused. The officers dared not provide barracks, because they knew that at English law they should be cashiered; that the civil authority must act, and not they. When, at great expense to the Crown, this difficulty was got over, and houses hired as if by a private citizen by the commander, it proved at once that the troops had nothing to do. 'Every one knew that they could not be employed, except on a requisition from a civil officer.' These are Mr. Bancroft's words. There was not a magistrate in the colony that saw any reason for their being there, and they were as powerless, therefore, as if they had been in England. Hutchinson, the Tory Governor, knew this; the English ministry knew it. It was not the want of troops which weakened them. It was the want of magistrates to give the orders to the troops. It never occurred to them that they could, by proclamation, elevate a military commander where the

dence, Missouri, and Louis Napoleon would have about as much legal right to represent Kanzas in Congress. I must say that Gov. Reeder acted the part of an honorable and honest man, and endeavored, by every means in his power, to have the election fairly conducted. He appointed the best and most reliable men he could finds as judges, with instructions to put upon oath all who were suspected of coming into the Territory for the mere purpose of voting. The Territory was divided into nineteen districts. I happened to be in Westport, a town only three miles from the river, and the same distance from the Kanzas line, the Sunday and Monday previous to the election, and saw all that was going on in that quarter. During the whole of Sunday, persons passed through that town in companies of from two to thirty, in buggies, wagons, on horseback, and on mules. Most of them came provided with the institutions peculiar to the country - pistols, bowie-knives, and whiskey; and were not at all choice in their language, particularly when speaking of those who dared to differ from them in opinion.  Many of them registered their names at the hotels as residing at all the towns on the Missouri side of the river, and openly laughed at the idea of ever making their home in the territory. On Monday morning, the tide of emigration recommenced and continued throughout the day. Every vehicle that had wheels to run, and every animal that had legs to go, were brought into requisition to carry these 'free and independent' voters to the polls, and by Monday evening there were scarcely men enough left in the town to take care of the women and children. Nearly the whole male population, including lawyers, doctors, editors, landlords, merchants and loafers, all had gone over to Kanzas, to show by their presence their approval and appreciation of the great principle of 'popular sovereignty!' Most of these gentlemen went to a point known as 'One Hundred and Ten' to cast their votes, and when the return from that district was received, it showed a poll of over six hundred votes - and all for Whitfield - when every man in Kanzas knows that there are not over fifty legal voters in the district. During this emigration, the whiskey trade was quite brisk in Westport. I heard one of the grocers say he had sold eighty gallons on Monday. At least five hundred men passed through Westport in these two days.  
On election day, I happened to be in the neighborhood of Leavensworth, and walked down to the poll - and may the Lord preserve me from ever witnessing another such exhibition of 'popular sovereignty.' The town of Weston, six miles above Fort Leavensworth, is the head-quarters in that region of the Missouri tribe, and the ferry across the Missouri is about half-way between that town and the Fort. At least three hundred men crossed the ferry that morning, and passed through the Fort grounds down to the place of voting. As soon as the poll opened, the window was taken possession of by a party of thirty or forty ruffians, who stood there until night, cursing, swearing at, and brow-beating every man who dared to vote against Whitfield. They were armed to the teeth, and determined to vote at all hazards, regardless of all honor, law and justice. Not even the sanctity of an oath could debar these men from carrying out their purposes. I heard men openly proclaim, with the fumes of bad whiskey issuing from their throats, and with the name of the great Jehovah on their lips, that they had 'sworn to all that was asked of them': and I heard one of the Judges who held

means of acquiring and holding power. A solemn conviction of the necessity of a thorough change of political parties flashed simultaneously upon the minds of all true patriots.
   A reverence for the obligations of the Constitution, and a holy love of the Union of these States, at once seized upon the hearts and minds of the honest yeomanry of the country, and a revolution was instantaneously effected. To will and to do are synonymous terms in the American vocabulary. American minds willed a change, and American votes brought about the change thus willed, while politicians were resting in fancied security.
   Let no man in hereafter say that Massachusetts will not adhere to the compromises of the Constitution. On what other basis can her people expect to preserve the Union?
   How long would the American party exist, if the floodgates of disunion were raised? Why
abandon the Whig and Democratic organizations, to form a national party, if that party is to be sectional in its views and action? If geographical divisions are to disrupt the American party, why give it an existence which at best would be ephemeral? But, we repeat, out friends in Massachusetts have formed a national and not a sectional American party, on the basis of sinking the question of slavery for ever! On no other basis could a national
party be formed. The question of slavery is not to be discussed. It is a State institution, and under State control and State responsibility. All the South asks, the American party, throughout the country, is willing to accord to them. 'Let the South alone.' They
ask no bolstering up of their institutions—no advocacy of slavery—no legislation to extend it—no protection which the Constitution does not guarantee to it. On this platform, Northern and Southern men can stand shoulder to shoulder in defence of the liberties, the rights, and the institutions of our common country.
   The triumphs of our party throughout the country are the triumphs of these principles. The published speeches of our friends at the Boston banquet proclaim these sentiments. Individuals there are within our ranks, who have not yet divested themselves of their former prejudices; but the general tone and tenor of the sentiments uttered at the Boston banquet accord with the views we have expressed, and satisfy us of the undoubted truth, that, in the consummation of the present revolution, the men of New England, like their sires in the Revolution of '76, will stand by their brethren of the South, as co-workers in a common cause.—American Organ.

SPIRIT OF KNOW-NOTHINGISM.

   The declaration that Know-Nothingism is not inimical to the interests of the South is a deception and a snare. We judge the tree by its fruits. The Know-Nothings boast of their victories in the North, and in every instance, their success has been won at the expense of the rights of the South. They have openly avowed their hatred of slavery, and their determination to break down its guarantees. In Massachusetts, where their success was
most decisive and complete, they struck down every man who had betrayed and respect for the constitutional rights of the South, and put the government in the possession of persons of the most fanatical feelings. In New Jersey, in New York, in Ohio, in Illinois, in Indiana, in Michigan—indeed, wherever they have triumphed in a popular election, the succeeded by an alliance with the enemies of the South. They have stricken down every true and brave man from the North whom they could reach with their assassin's dagger, and have filled the next Congress with a motley crew of crazy fanatics and profligate demagogues. They have not sent to Congress a single man of known fidelity to the South. Against this incontestable and damning fact, no fictitious platform and no cheap professions of patriotism will avail to deceive the South as to the spirit and aim of Know-Nothingism. There is no community on earth, to the safety of which publicity of political discussion and personal responsibility are so essential as to the States of the South. Their institutions cannot be overthrown by open assault, but they may be understood
by the hidden treachery of organized society [?] whose agents are shielded from responsibility [?] by an impenetrable veil of secre- [?] ency of secret societies for the ac- [?] of political purposes in vindicated [?]f Know-Nothingism, how long will


thus showing on our part, not only a reliance upon their labors, but our open and confiding spirit, and never once have we persecuted them, or attempted to drive them out of the country, even those whom we knew not to be good men. We have not prevented them from preaching to our slaves. This has been the course pursued by the Choctaws towards the missionaries sent out among us; but we had a right to pass laws prohibiting them from teaching our slaves, because we knew them to be a dangerous people, who neither regarded the law of God, nor that of man as binding on their conduct or conscience. Because we have done this, the Board looks upon it an an outrage, and declares her intention to withdraw her teachers from our schools. Let it be done, and the sooner the better. And now let us look for missionaries and teachers from such as we can live in peace and unity with, from whom we will have no fears that they will not teach us anything beyond what the Apostles of Jesus Christ taught in their day.
   If to please the Abolitionists, the Council should repeal the act, which has given so much offence to the Board, you will see a party spirit arise among us, which will not be put down until every Abolitionist is made to leave the Nation. Repeal that act, and you may at once agree upon your Council being dictated to, by the Abolitionists of the North. Our people need not fear that the schools will cease on account of the threatened withdrawal of the present teachers, by the American Board, for it was out money that brought them hither, and surely our money can bring us as good, if not better teachers.'

   We are not disposed to make any comment on this melancholy and painful intelligence. It is just what we anticipated from the unhappy action of the American Board. Deeply as we condemn the spirit of Col. Harkins' message, we could not anticipate anything else. If it is not too late to repair the mischief, we hope that the Prudential Committee may have wisdom to meet the threatened crisis, and even by assuming responsibility, which they have not hesitated to do in times past, to avert the calamity that is now impending over
that mission. We have done all in our power to awaken the friends of the Board to the danger, and now the event which we feared and deplored appears to be at hand.—N. Y. Observer.

A STRING OF FALSEHOODS.

   In Frederick Douglass's Paper of Dec. 15, 'COMMUNIPAW,' its New York correspondent, maliciously says:

   'When I see the Old Organization at Boston and New York exhibiting, or trying to exhibit, on their platform of lectures, Sam Houston, the slaveholder, and Anson Burlingame, elect of the Know-Nothing pro-slavery organization, while they exclude from said platform of 
lectures Frederick Douglass, James W. C. Pennington, Jòhn I. Gaines, and John Mercer Langston, because they are colored men—for this is the only difference between these latter and those former, except that the latter may be of higher intellect—it appears a sufficient reason for me to say, that their is no room for black men on the Old Organization platform; first, because we are asked off, and, secondly, because we cannot strike hands with slaveholders, nor with those who strike hands with slaveholders and their abettors.'

   This mendacious libeller goes on to say, 'All honor to the men, who, for quarter of a century, earnestly and incessantly proclaimed the evils of slavery! But their work is done (!)—the end of their existence is fulfilled (!!)—they are become effete (!!!)—not through any fault of theirs, but by a law of human nature'! He then complains of the price asked for the
course of Anti-Slavery Lectures now in process of delivery in New York, and winds up his malicious tirade by insinuating that not half so much is paid to the colored as to the white lecturers;—to all which, the Anti-Slavery Standard gives the following crushing rejoinder:—

   This precious chapter of blunders, misrepresentation and malice is understood to be the production of James McCune Smith, M.D., the colored graduate of the University of Glasgow. We state this fact with emotions of regret and shame—regret that, for any reason, we have incurred the hostility of one from whom we had a right to expect a friendly 'God-speed,' and shame that an educated colored man should stand fourth as the voluntary maligner of those who, whatever may have been [continued on another page]

platform, either Sam Houston or Anson Burlingame. Neither of those gentlemen has ever been invited to take part in the New York Course, while J. Mercer Langston, one of the very men who the mendacious Dr. says, were 'excluded' 'because they are colored,' was invited, and very earnestly invited, so to do, in a
letter directed to him , at his place of residence, to which, however, from some unexplained cause, no answer was ever received. 'There is no room for black men on the Old Organization platform,' says the veracious Doctor' and yet, at the very moment when he was penning the statement, he knew that among the lecturers publicly announced to appear in the Tabernacle Course was William Wells Brown, a colored man and a fugitive slave. Perhaps, however, the Doctor and his party have concluded to deny that any man is really 'colored' who has not by faithlessness to old friends proved his heart to be as black as his skin. Tired by this test, our friend Brown is certainly not a colored man, and we presume he will not soon aspire to the honor of a place in such a category.
   3. Dr. Smith's oracular annunciation that Old Organized Anti-Slavery 'has become effete,' is too cruel! We scarcely know how we could console ourselves in view of the sad event, were it not for his kind of declaration that it has come 'not through any fault' of the Old Organizationists themselves, 'but by law of human nature.' This is indeed a comfort. 'The cowered before the Church in Chinese Hall,' but they couldn't help it, poor fellows, 'their cycle being complete'!! Charitable Dr. Smith!
   4. The Doctor is quite indignant that the Standard and Liberator pay so little attention to the movements of Mr. Douglass. We confess that, for about a year past, we have given Mr. D. a pretty severe 'letting alone,' and we shall probably continue to do so in time to come. He has chosen a path widely divergent from ours, and in which we have neither the leisure nor the inclination to follow him. We do no think that his abuse of us in times past constitutes any just ground for a demand upon us to chronicle his movements. He is a very able and a very eloquent man, and we shall rejoice in all the good he may accomplish. And, if it will be any consolation to Dr. Smith, we will avow our belief that Mr. D. is far more
usefully as well as more honorably employed, when stumping on the track of his Senatorial namesake, than when trying to make people believe that the Garrisonians are infidels.
   5. But the conscience of the Doctor is extremely tender. 'Black men,' he tells us, 'have no room on the Old Organization platform,' 'because they cannot strike hands with slaveholders, nor with those who do strike hands with slaveholders.' We have already knocked away the foundation on which the Doctor reared this falsehood; but what shall we say of the honestly of a man who, in one breath, affects a standard of anti-slavery too pure
to sanction the appearance of Gen. Houston and Anson Burlingame as public lecturers in a course avowedly intended to present fairly all sides of the subject of slavery, and, in the next, praises an association of colored men who employed as 'their first lecturer' that notorious pro-slavery Divine, the Rev. Dr Baird!! We congratulate 'a certain editor from Rochester,' upon the opportunity afforded him of 'striking hands' with that 'abettor' of slavery!
   6. Dr. Smith complains that the Anti-Slavery Lectures in this city are not cheap enough to those who hear them. Nothing could be more unreasonable than this. We assert, without fear of contradiction, that, taking into account the necessary expense of securing speakers, rent, &c., the Lectures are the cheapest ever offered to the people of this city. The expense to a gentleman and lady taking a season ticket is less than eleven cents each per lecture! Indeed, the extraordinary cheapness of the 'so-called Anti-Slavery course' has been  a general remark among those who are friendly to their object. The Committee, so far from being 'bent upon making money' out of them, have been seriously apprehensive that they would not pay their expenses; but their anxiety on this account has not prevented them from furnishing tickets gratuitously to those who are too poor to pay for them. Dr. Smith himself was permitted to take a season ticket at half price, and partly on credit at that; and this chapter of misrepresentation and abuse in Frederick Douglass's Paper is his return for the favor!
   7. Dr. Smith, forgetting his first declaration, that there was 'no room' on the Old Organization platform for a 'black man,' and that we had 'excluded' such on account of their color, charges the Chairman of the Committee with paying black lecturers


penitentiary until the first of the present month (November.) We, therefore, hasten to respond, bearing to 'many inquirers' painful tidings of the severe treatment he has been and is still receiving, a the hands of Kentucky authorities, whose 'tender mercies are cruel'; on account of which, his health became much impaired, but, through the kindness of the physician and foreman of the prison, his health, up to the first, was improving.
   We give facts, as received from the friend above referred to. Calvin's brother applied to the Governor of Kentucky for a pardon; by paying whatever might be required for Tamer, (the aided slave,) but was repulsed by the unrelenting reply, 'Mr. Fairbank, you may as well understand first as last, that all the wealth of Kentucky would not make me pardon your brother; he cannot be pardoned.' Upon which, he begged the privilege of Craig (the warden of the prison) to permit his unfortunate brother to receive small sums of money, as other prisoners did; but this favor was also denied. After which, Mr. Craig asked Calvin if we would have Tamer brought back, if, upon her rendition, the authorities would pardon him. The reply was 'I cannot conscientiously consent to such a proposition. As hard as it is, to be forever in this world separated from all that life holds dear, I must yield to my hard fate, and die within this prison wall.' He was then placed under still more severe discipline. When news reached the prison that Craig was shot as Madison, Ind., in the Delia Webster affair, (the circumstances of which are familiar to all the readers of the public journals of the North,) Calvin made the inadvertent remark, that is was good enough for him, as he had no business at Madison. Whereupon a fellow-prisoner informed against him, and he
was arraigned before his cruel persecutor (Craig,) and received, by his order, fifty-nine lashes on the bare back, ten more than the extent of the prison law, leaving from the neck to the small of the back, one gore of mangled flesh; then placed him in the dungeon for a specified time, with orders to be taken from thence (if alive) and put into the hackle-house, (to hackle hemp, exceedingly laborious, mostly used for punishing prisoners,) to be kept there until he should die, not permitting him to speak to any one, and if he did, it was to be reported to him (Craig.) As a friend passed that dismal dungeon and heard his piteous groans, after the scourging, he went to the prison hospital, and obtained sweet oil, with which he anointed the quivering flesh of the sufferer. As Bennett (the foreman) took from the dungeon, the trembling and already enfeebled victim of Craig's demoniac fury, he said, 'I suppose, Mr. Fairbank, we have got to obey orders, and kill you!' This being uttered in a trembling undertone, bespoke the deep heavings of stifled sympathy, which seems to have been discovered by Craig, by the threats that Bennett, too, should receive the lash to the extent of the law, if he did not carry out his orders strictly. But Calvin failed so fast that the physician said he could not long survive in the hackle-house, and ordered the foreman to remove him, and place him again in the loom, which was don. 
   It was deeply affecting to listen to the narration of the cruelties inflicted upon one who was taken by force from Indiana shores, vilely thrown into Louisville jail, permitted only a mock trial, upon whom was practised almost every form of fraud, deceit, and villany that fiends in human form could devise; and then to drag out a miserable existence in a Kentucky penitentiary-a living martyr-being sacrificed upon the deeply dyed alter of slavery's bloody moloch.
   None but those whose hearts were seared by the withering and blighting influence of that doubly-distilled essence of all iniquity. American Slavery, could listen to the relation of Calvin Fairbank's sufferings, and not feel that our government is full of wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores. There can be no soundness in it; surely diabolical deeds are being committed without the utterance of a disapproving sentence from a vast majority, we have no grounds to hope for reformation only in revolution. 
   How long shall the wailings of the slave, and the appeals of those who are remembering him in his chains, swell the boson of sympathy? How long must our ears be pained, and our hearts made sick, with every day's report of wrong and outrage, with which these United States are filled? How long will it be ere the triumph of jubilee shall be sounded throughout all the land, and liberty be proclaimed to all the inhabitants thereof?
   As every yours for suffering humanity, 
               LAURA S. HAVILAND.

equally known to people and troops, that they could not act but by order of a magistrate. It was October, and they had no barracks in town, The Governor summoned the justices to provide them. The justices refused. The officers dared no provide barracks, because they knew that at English law they should be cashiered; that the civil authority must act, and they. When, at great expense to the Crown, this difficulty was got over, and houses hired as if by a private citizen by the commander, it proved at once that the troops had nothing to do. 'Every one knew that they could not be employed, except on a requisition from a civil officer.' These are Mr. Bancroft's words. There was not a magistrate in the colony that saw any reason for their being there, and they were as powerless, therefore, as if they had been in England. Hutchinson, the Tory Governor, knew this the English ministry knew it. It was not the want of troops which weakened them. It was the want of magistrates to give the orders to the troops, It never occurred to them that they could, by proclamation, elevate a military commander above the law, even for a day. They did not know that duty could command one thing, and law another. 
   On the other hand, the patriot leaders understood this fundamental law of constitutional liberty as well as the tory ministry. And when it came to be their turn to order out troops, they obeyed it. That was then the fashion in Boston. When, after the Boston massacre, the English officers had promised to remove the troops to the castle, the town ordered out a  body of military as a watch until they did so. This was the most humiliating part of that transaction to the English troops, that they should be watched thus by another army. The Boston colonel of that day, however, understood his place. And while his troops were under arms, the justices of the peace attended in succession every night, to secure the presence of a proper civil officer, in case of resort to violent measures. Mr. Hutchinson himself understood constitutional law as well. When Capt. Preston fired upon the mob, the night of the massacre, Hutchinson was at once sent for. His first words were, according to his own account, to ask Preston why he had fired 'without the direction of a civil magistrate.' 
   All these details appear in the new volume of Bancroft. They are seasonable just now, when behind the public government of the city, there is a secret government which directs its line of the conduct. We respectfully commend them to the attention of that grand council whose direction the mayor is sworn to obey, as illustrations of the law which was once law in Boston, to which Boston owes the preservation of personal liberty in the very darkest times. 
   This council affects to be especially American. It may be well, then, that it should remember that constant supervision of the military by the civil authorities is the especial principle which distinguishes, at the foundation, our order of government from those of the continent of Europe. A Louis Napoleon, a Pius Ninth, or a Narvaez, like J. V. C. Smith, may surrender to a military commander his own civil authority. An American citizen, acting under American law, cannot do this for an hour.- Boston Daily Advertiser.

POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY ILLUSTRATED. 

   It was stated in our last, that Gen Whitfield, the pro-slavery candidate, was recently elected delegate to Congress, from Kanzas Territory. We shall now give our readers an idea how this was accomplished, as a striking illustration of the beautiful operation of the principle of 'Popular Sovereignty,' set up by Cass. Douglas, and their partizans. A correspondent of the New York Tribune says, that 'at least 1500 voters were sent over from Missouri to vote in Kanzas.' We give a few extracts from his letter:—
   'Sir—I have just returned from a visit to Kanzas Territory, and was an eye-witness of the first practical demonstration of 'popular sovereignty' under Mr. Douglas's Kanzas and Nebraska bill. More disgracefull scenes that were enacted at the late election for a delegate to represent Kanzas in Congress, have never been witnessed, I presume, even in a new country. The game was entirely in the hands of the fire-eating Missourians residing in the counties along the river, who crossed over by the hundreds at all points, and took forcible possession of the polls, to the exclusion of the actual  and bona-fide residents of the territory. They insisted on dragging the slavery question into the issue, and fell upon a Gen. Whitfield, who was an old Indian Agent, and who does not live in the Territory at all. He resides in the town of Indepen- 

borhood of Leavensworth, and walked down to the poll—and may the Lord preserve me from ever witnessing another such exhibition of 'popular sovereignty.' The town of Weston, six miles above Fort Leavensworth, is the head-quarters in that region of the Missouri tribe, and the ferry across the Missouri is about half-way between that town and the Fort. At least three hundred men crossed the ferry that morning, and passed through the Fort grounds down to the place of voting. As soon as the poll opened, the window was taken possession of by a party of thirty of forty ruffians, who stood there until night, cursing, swearing at, and brow-beating every man who dared to vote against Whitfield. They were armed to the teeth, and determined to vote at all hazards, regardless of all honor, law and justice. Not even the sanctity of an oath could debar these men from carrying out their purposes. I heard men openly proclaim, with the fumes of bad whiskey issuing from their throats, and with the name of the great Jehovah on their lips, that they had 'sworn to all that was asked of them'; and I heard one of the Judges who held the election declare that 'some of them came up and swore that they lived in Kanzas, and intended to make it their permanent home, who no more intended to leave Missouri than they intended going to Egypt.' Drunkenness and fighting were the order of the day. Stones were thrown and pistols fired through the windows into the room occupied by the officers; and a number of anonymous letters were sent into their rooms, threatening personal violence, and the destruction of the house, if they persisted in swearing their men and rejecting their votes. Those who were suspected of not belonging to the faithful, were denounced as 'd-d abolitionists'; and in several instances they were demanded to 'show their tickets.' In the afternoon, their courage and spunk increased with the quantity of whiskey imbibed; and those who had possession of the window openly swore that 'No man should vote that day, unless he voted for Witfield.' By this species of intimidation and violence were the real settlers driven away from the polls; and I saw more than a dozen leave the ground, without voting, rather than to risk their lives and limbs.'

FRIGHTENED. 

   The people of New Orleans have been considerably alarmed of late. Thay have seen-what! A ghost? The ravages of the yellow fever? Nay, worse than all this-they have found out that the African Methodist Episcopal Church, an organization entirely composed of colored people, has two or three sections in New Orleans, and is about to establish another in Mobile! What is still more appalling, they have discovered that Bishop Quinn, a colored man, has dared (!) to visit New Orleans, for the purpose of ordaining some colored preachers! These facts have stirred up the Quattlebums of the Crescent City, and like a lot of old grannies listening to some tale of horror, they are turning up their eyes and spreading out their hands in terrified wonder. The press has taken up the subject. The organ of the M. E. Church, South, in that city, has solemnly disclaimed all connection with it. Something has got to be done, for the wiseacres there find in thee facts signs of an Atlantic of dangers rolling in upon the peculiar institution, and they are about to mop out the unwelcome waves, after the example of that renowned lady, Mrs. Partington. Poor, conscience-stricken coward! How self-degraded they must feel, if they reflect upon the occasion of their alarm. And what a rotten intuition slavery must be, if its friends tremble thus at the presence of a poor African bishop, and two or three religious societies of colored people! Would that the sturdy spirit of the old Scotch Covenanters would enter into those New Orleans colored Christians, and prompt them to claim their undoubted right to worship God as they think best; aye, and to maintain the claim too, even unto martyrdom. They would not suffer in vain. They might be sacrificed, a noble holocaust, at the shrine of slavery, but their spirit would quicken their race to efforts for self-improvement, which would help work out its redemption.—Zion's Herald.

POETRY.
For the Liberator.
A VISION.
'Their patience was at last provoked into despair.
On every side they rose in multitudes, armed with
rustic weapons, and with irresistible fury. They asserted
the natural rights of men, but they asserted
them with the most savage cruelty.'--GIBBON.

Faintly, from far Southern valleys,
Shadowed 'neath their deep blue skies,
Echo sounds of joy and triumph--
Hymns which had their birth in sighs.

Many a heart is stained with blood drops--
Many a home-tar lieth low--
But th' oppressor's fallen-- fallen--
And that softens half their wo.

'Long, oh Lord, thou hast endured them,
And these people suffered long;
But Thy faithful word insured them
Rescue, at the last, from wrong.

'In Thy name, so high and holy,
Hath their host to conquest gone;
But they claimed the triumph solely,
When the victories were won.

'In their weird enchantments strengthened,
Firm in antique bond and spell,
Ever still their chains they lengthened,
Ever still their boastings swell:

'But Thou cam'st in might and glory!
And, before Thy outstretched arm,
Where the powers so famed in a story?
Where their scourge, their brand, their charm?

Lo! they tremble at their altars!--
(Golden shrines in purple dyed!)
And each priestly accent falters,
Muttering now their words of pride!

For, from every hill and valley,
(Sweetest incense to the skies,)
Echo Freedom's loud hosannas--
Hymns which had their birth in sighs!

THE SNOW-SHOWER.
BY WM. CULLEN BRYANT.
Stand here by my side, and turn, I pray,
On the lake below thy gentle eyes;
The clouds hang over it, heavy and gray,
And dark and silent the water lies;
And out of that frozen mist the snow
In wavering flakes begins to flow;
Flake after flake,
They sink in the dark and silent lake.

See, how in a living swarm they come
From the chambers beyond that misty veil!
Some hover awhile in the air, and some
Rush prone from the sky like summer hail.
All, dropping swiftly or settling slow,
Meet, and are still in the depth below;
Flake after flake,
Dissolved in the dark and silent lake.

Here, delicate snow-stars, out of the cloud,
Come floating downward in airy play,
Like spangles dropped from the glistening crowd
That whiten by night the milky way;
There, broader and burlier masses fall;
The sullen water buries them all;
Flake after flake,
All drowned in the dark and silent lake.

And some, as on tender wings glide
From their chilly birth-cloud, dim and gray,
Are joined in their fall, and, side by side,
Come clinging along their unsteady way;
As friend with friend, or husband with wife,
Makes, hand in hand, the passage of life,
Each mated flake
Soon sinks into the dark and silent lake.

Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste
Stream down the snow, till the air is white,
As, myriads by myriads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their shadowy height.
The fair frail creatures of the middle sky,
What speed they make with their grave so nigh!
Flake after flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!

I see in thy gentle eyes a tear;
They turn to me in sorrowful thought;
Thou thinkest of friends, the good and dear,
Who were for a time, and now are not;
Like these fair children of cloud and frost,
That glisten a moment, and then are lost,
Flake after flake,
All lost in the dark and silent lake.

Yet look again, for the clouds divide;

IMPROVED METHOD OF
Champooing and Hair-Dyeing.
284, WASHINGTON STREET.
MADAME CARTEAUX, having removed to 284
Washington Street avails herself of this medium
for tendering thanks to the Ladies of Boston and vicinity
for the liberal patronage awarder her, and would
respectfully assure them that, by unremitting endeavors
to please, she hopes for a continuance of their favors.
Her arrangements for cutting and dressing Ladies'
and Children's Hair, for Dyeing and Champooing, are
such as winning the tribute of praise from all.
She has a Hair Restorative which cannot be excelled
as it produces new hair where baldness had taken
place.
Her chemical research has developed an inimitable
Hair Dye, warranted not to smut, (a desideratum
looked for.) Her Ne Plus Ultra, for renovating the
complexion, removing freckles, &c., is fast commending

As a friend with friend, or husband with wife,
Makes, hand in hand, the passage of life,
Each mated flake
Soon sinks into the dark and silent lake.

Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste
Stream down the snow, till the air is white,
As myriads by myriads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their shadowy height.
The fair frail creatures of the middle sky,
What speed they make with their grave so nigh!
Flake after flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!

I see in thy gentle eyes a tear; 
They turn to me in sorrowful thought;
Thou thinkest of friends, the good and dear,
Who were for a time, and now are not;
Like these fair children of cloud and frost,
That glisten a moment, and then are lost,
Flake after flake,
All lost in the dark and silent lake.

Yet look again, for the clouds divide;
A gleam of blue on the water lies;
And far away, on the mountainside,
A sunbeam falls from the opening skies.
But the hurrying host, that flew between
The cloud and the water no more is seen;
Flake after flake
At rest in the dark and silent lake.

CLOSING OF THE LEDGER.
BY HENRY MORFORD.
Close up the Ledger, Time! 
Slowly and sadly, but let it be, 
Mournfully passeth by the year;
What are the records for you and me
Left by the failing fingers here?-
What for passion, and what for love?
What for avarice and crime?
What for hope, and the Heaven above?
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Many a name, for good or ill,
Fills to the margin of your blotted scroll-
Many a high and haughty will,
Many a low but humble soul;
Yet one page to each is given,
Marking the changing path we climb,
Holding the balance of hell or heaven:-
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Say, are we creditors for aught?
Have we a store of noble deeds,
Springing from high and generous thought,
Such as our fallen brother's needs?
Have we laid up for the coming years
Words to weave a funeral rhyme,
Names that will call up grateful tears?
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Say what promises hope has drawn-
Say what drafts stern truth has paid;
Say what bankrupt hopes have gone
In the grave with memory laid;
Say if the heart has kept its own,
Gathering beauty with lure and lime,
Say what fabrics are overthrown:-
What of the Ledger, Time?

Close up the Ledger, Time!
Hark the knell of the year gone by!
Have I run out of my golden sand?
Where shall I be when the next shall die?
Where shall the soul within me stand?
Naught beyond may the Ledger tell;
Naught be known but in guilt and crime;
Listen! I hear the New Year's bell!
Shut up the Ledger, Time!

FREE SPEECH.
Must we be told, besides the plow,
What we must speak, and when, and how?

         REV. DR. DEWEY'S DISCLAIMER.
   We see it going the rounds of the papers, that
Rev. Orville Dewey, D.D., in the course of a lecture
delivered before the Mercantile Library Association
in Boston, on the evening of Oct. 20th, took
occasion to brand as a 'calumny' and a 'lie', the
story extensively circulated, that, in his lecture before
the same body six years ago, he said that he would
cosign his own mother to slavery to preserve the
union of the States. He is said to have pronounced
his disclaimer with the most vehement indignation,
as a vindication due to the honor of his name.
Yet the Doctor Expressly admits that he did, on the
occasion referred to, utter the following language :
     'I would consent ithat my own brother, my own son,
should go into slavery --- ten times rather I go myself ---
than that this Union should perish for me or
mine.'
This is indeed a sorry vindication for the Rev.
Doctor to make of his character as a minister of
Jesus, and a citizen of the American Republic. ---
And that he did say this we knew before his recent
confession, for we were present at that lecture, and
heard that language. If we had seen a father in
the very act of murdering his son, we could scarcely
have experienced a more horrific shudder than that
which ran through our nerves when we heard that
language. And, indeed, the instant assassination
of the son by the father would be tender mercy, in
comparison with binding him with cords, and delivering
him over to slavery for life. And for what
would the amiable Doctor 'consent' to such a sacrifice
of his brother and son? Why, for the sake
of purchasing, at this price, the consent of the
slaveholders to remain in our confederacy! Of
course, if he would consent to the enslavement of
his brother, son and self, for purchasing the will
of the slaveholders to abide with us, he would consent
to the enslavement of any one else, and of all
other Northern people, for the same glorious purpose!
Of course he must. What a bargain!
What a principal to be uttered by an American
Doctor of Divinity North! He loves confederacy
with the slaveholders so well, that rather than be
deprived of it, he would have it perpetuated, if it
were to consist in the relation of the whole North
to the South as that of slaves to their masters. It
was an exceedingly foolish remark, and the Doctor
would have acted more wisely to have said so,
frankly and ingenuously, than to have attempted to
frighten the good citizens of Boston with indignant
bluster. Whether it were his mother, or his brother,
affects not the principle. It was the expression
of a willingness to feed, even by human sacrifice,
and to sanctify an enormous wrong, for a supposed
temporal business advantage. It was intended, in
fact, as a bone thrown to the pacification of the
bloodhounds in pursuit of human cattle.
   When the father will go out, and encourage his
brother and son to go, and bare their bosoms to 
danger and death, in the cause of the oppressed
against the oppressor, the cause of human right,
improvement and happiness, he shall receive the
blessing of God and man. But no political union,
no magnificent scheme of enriching trade, which
is to be sanctified by the doing of iniquity, is worth 
a straw. If all the South were to rise up and say
to us, 'Sylvanus, go and seize that degraded Ne-
gro, the lowest you can find in Boston, or that stu-
pid Irishman, and thrust him into eternal slavery,
and we will stand by the present American Union,
--if not, we will secede en masse to-morrow,' what 
would we answer! What? We would instantly
reply, 'Away with you to-morrow! We believe
in God, who judgeth in the earth. We will obey 
his law, and bide the consequences.'
Yet we do not make light of the American Union. 
If it can be preserved on on principles of right, it is a 
great good. But if the price of it must be our per-
petual pandering to wrong, then it is worse than
nothing, vanity. Hear ye the word of the Lord: --
'Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their coun-
sel and their work from the Lord. Your turning 
of things upside down shall be esteemed as the pot-
ter's clay.' 'Wherefore hear ye the word of the
Lord, ye scornful men that rule this people. Be-
cause ye have said, we have made a covenant with 
death, and with hell are we at agreement; when 
the overflowing scourge shall pass through, ti shall
not come unto us; for we have made lies our re-
fuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves. 
Judgment will I lay to the line, and righteousness
to the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away 
the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the 
hiding place. And your covenant with death shall
be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall 
not stand. When the overflowing scourge shall
pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.' 
'Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom 
this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear 
ye their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord fo 
hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let 
him be your dread.' --Isa. xxix: 15, 16; xxviii : 
14--18; viii : 12, 13.--Boston Christian Freeman.

SHALL KANSAS BE FREE? 
Mr. Mace, of Indiana, has given notice of his 
intention to introduce a bill prohibiting slavery in 
Kansas and Nebraska. For this early and yet
timely movement, he is entitled to the thanks of 
the friends of freedom throughout the country. 
Objections will be made by the timid and the time-
serving; we shall hear much small talk about the 

orable deed; the record of its consummation is
not a record of the opinions of representatives, but 
of their cowardice and their ambition. Mr. Mace
will give them a chance for repentance and repara-
tion, and they ought to thank him for it. Nor 
should the verdict of the people be forgotten. It
is anything but ambiguous or indecisive, and if 
the present Congress fails to undo its most misera-
ble work, the next one must perform that service,
or be branded as doubly traitorous.--Boston Atlas.
--------------
THE CHOCTAWS. 
The American Board of Foreign Missions, at its
recent meeting, passed a resolution to dissolve its
connection with the Choctaw schools, and to with-
draw the teachers and money which it has been
contributing, unless the Choctaw General Council
should repeal an act prohibiting the instruction of 
slaves. This action of the Board, which was high-
ly approved by most sensible people, and consider-
ed as creditable and truly Christian, has excited 
the displeasure of Col. Harkins, the Chief of the 
Choctaws. The Colonel is a prudent as well as a 
pious brave, and is determined to cast out those 
teachers who care for the lowly, the enslaved , and
the oppressed, and to send for new teachers, who 
'will not teach anything beyond what the Apostles
of Jesus Christ taught in their day.' Chief Har-
kins' notions of apostlic teachings are lively, but
limited; and he cannot, for one, be persuaded that 
our Savior would have taken the trouble to come 
into the world so save 'niggers.' The fashionable
barber in London, spoken of in Nicholas Nickleby,
declined to shave coal-heavers--he felt that he 
must draw the line somewhere, and he refused to 
rasp anybody under a baker. Col. Harkins thinks
gospel advantages would be quite thrown away up-
on anybody under 'Ingins,' and he draws the 
line of salvation accordingly. 
The aboriginal Colonel also urges upon his 
tribe, the necessity of notifying government that it 
is ready to adopt Johnson's territorial bill. He 
says, 'Our only chance to live and exist as a peo-
ple, will be to educate and civilize as fast as possi-
ble the rising generation'--meaning, of course,
the copper-colored rising generation only. Har-
kins has very pretty notions of civilizations, bor-
rowed, of course, from the patriarchal opinions of 
the South; but perhaps it has never occurred to 
him, that for one oppressed people to oppress an-
other is a bad way of awakening sympathy. Har-
kins must be very benighted indeed, if he thinks 
that the expulsion of faithful Christian teachers 
from the country is evidence of Choctaw passion
for 'civilization.' Perhaps, however, he still takes
an aboriginal view of the subject, and means to 
follow up the pursuit of civilization by the revival 
of scalping, burning at the stake, and other agree-
able Indian diversions. If so, he ought to put a 
ring in his nose and red ochre his cheeks without
delay.--Boston Atlas.

From the London Empire of Dec. 2.
SALUTATORY ADDRESS.
It is not without reluctance that, yielding to the 
judgment of those whom I esteem wiser than my-
self, I to-day address the readers of THE EMPIRE
over my own proper signature. 
My purpose is, firstly, to announce the fact that 
I have become co-editor and principal proprietor of 
this journal; and, secondly, to say something
which shall indicate, with sufficient distinctness,
the principles by which my Editorial Management
will be regulated, the general views which I intend 
to promulgate, and the ends to which my literacy 
labors will be directed.
THE EMPIRE, since its establishment, twelve
months ago, has been distinguished for its able 
and manly advocacy of the cause of social morality,
of sound liberal opinions, and of progressive re-
form. It will continue to be so distinguished, any 
deficiency of talent on my part being amply com-
pensated by the more meritorious contributions of 
those with whom I already have the honor to be
associated, and of others whom I have reason to 
believe will lend me their occasional and valuable
co-operation. 
What I have been during the whole course of my
public life, that I shall inflexibly remain--the ardent
friend and supporter of Free-trade and the rights 
of industry--of the absolute and perfect equality 
of all religious sects--of the largest practicable 
increase of the independent political power of the 
people--of justice to our colonies, and especially
to the conquered subjects of our vast Indian Em-
pire--of the exercise of the moral influence of this
nation in favor of the total and universal extinc-
tion of slavery and the slave trade ; and, finally,
of the Christian principles of Peace--especially
the substitution of pacific arbitration, in all inter-
national disputes, for the present senseless, ab-
surd and bloody appeal to the sword ; and the 
gradual overthrow of those gigantic military in-
stitutions of Europe which menace the tranquility 
of the world, are the strongest bulwarks of despot-
ism, and the most formidable obstacles to the ad-
vancement of civilization, and the triumphs of pure
and undefiled religion. 
I shall hold MORALITY to be the true foundation
of all POLITICS, and shall first enquire--not what 
is EXPEDIENT, but what is RIGHT ; regarding it as 
ever in the highest degree inexpedient, and in the 
end necessarily injurious, to depart from the prin-
ciples of truth and rectitude . I shall endeavor to

THE BAZAAR.
The weather, for a few days past, has been extreme-
ly unpropitious for the ANTI-SLAVERY BAZAAR, in this
city, rendering the walking exceedingly disagreeable, and
keeping many visitors away, who would otherwise have 
attended to cheer by their presence, and aid the cause
by their patronage. Notwithstanding this serious draw-
back, and the severe pressure in the money market, the
proceeds of the sales have thus far equalled those of 
any season. The Bazaar will not close till Saturday
evening ; and we are happy to announce that, in addi-
tion to the stock of useful and beautiful articles still re-
maining on hand, no less than five additional boxes 
have arrived in the steamer America from England, the
contents of which will give new variety and splendor to 
the exhibition. Let the time be well improved by lib-
eral purchases and a spirited attendance. 
It is expected that, this [Friday] evening, ANTOINETTE
BROWN will speak at the Bazaar, and on Saturday eve-
ning, LUCY STONE. The simple announcement will suf-
fice to fill the hall.

LONDON ANTI-SLAVERY CONFERENCE.
For the report of the proceedings of this Conference,
which was held at the London Tavern on the 29th and 
30th ult., at the call of the British and Foreign A. S. 
Society, we are specially indebted to our highly esteem-
ed friend, Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool. A con-
siderable portion of it is extracted from 'THE EMPIRE,' 
the journal now under the editorial care of GEORGE 
THOMPSON, Esq., whose Salutatory Address to the pat-
rons thereof may be found in the preceding column.--
The Conference was in session two days, and appears 
to have been conducted in a spirit far different from
that of the 'World's Convention' in 1840. Two fe-
male delegates appeared with credentials from Man-
chester, and were admitted without opposition. How 
different this from the exclusion of LUCRETIA MOTT,
MARY GREW, and other American women from the 
Convention aforesaid ! And what a change it implies 
on the part of the Broad Street Committee, either from 
motives of policy or from higher considerations !--
Again--no gag was applied, and free speech was am-
ply vindicated in the fidelity with which PARKER PILLS-
BURY uttered and applied the truth, respecting the un-
justifiable course pursued by that Committee towards
the American Anti-Slavery Society for many years
past. We will not complain that the Conference did 
not specially endorse the old Pioneer Society, though it
would have been simply just and magnanimous to have
done so ; and we much prefer the phraseology used in 
the resolution adopted by the Conference, in regard to 
'the abolitionists generally in the United States,' than 
to have had the American A. S. Society specifically
classed with the American and Foreign A. S. Society. 
All we ask is, a free platform, and no favors.

ANTI-SLAVERY CONFERENCE IN LON-
DON. 
A Conference of the friends of anti-slavery, convened
by circular issued by the Committee of the British and 
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, was held at the London 
Tavern, Bishopsgate Street, on Wednesday and Thurs-
day, the 29th and 30th November. The attendance,
though not large, was influential, and comprised many
well-known names from various parts of the country. 
At the morning sitting on the first day, Mr. SAMUEL
GURNEY was called to the Chair. In opening the pro-
ceedings, he spoke of the state of the slave trade on the 
coast of Africa, and in Brazil and Cuba. He also re-
ferred to American slavery as a system of the grossest 
despotism, particularly disgraceful to the country which
cherished it; and, on the whole, he said he was com-
pelled to regard the present position of the anti-slavery 
cause as one of discouragement. 
Mr. CHAMEROVZOW, the Secretary of the British and 
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, mentioned many letters
that had been received from persons friendly to the 
meeting, but who were unable to attend, from some of 
which he read extracts. He then proceeded to read
lists of delegates to the Conference, appointed from va-
rious places. 
Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, at this stage of 
the proceedings, rose in the room, and handed up the
credentials of two delegates then present, of whose ap-
pointment, he said, the Secretary had not received any
previous notice. 
Mr. CHAMEROVZOW immediately read the credentials
thus publicly handed to him, which were those of Mrs. 
Moore and Miss Whitelegge, as delegates from the 
Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society of Manchester; and no ob-
jection being offered, the appointment was or course rat-
ified by the meeting like that of all the other delegates. 
There were many other ladies in the room as visitors, 
but we heard it said that several among them would
have been admitted in that capacity. 
The Rev. J. H. HINTON, Baptist minister, read a pa-
per on 'The Present Position of the Anti-Slavery Ques-
tion in Great Britain as a Public Question, and the 
Duty of British Abolitionists.' He referred to the la-
bors of Clarkson, Wilberforce and their coadjutors, the
motives that had animated them, and the glorious re-
sults that had crowned their efforts. From the past he 
came to the present. The question was one that con-
cerned the whole civilized world. The thief and the 
receiver of stolen goods assailed interests that were pub-
lic, and had no right to shelter themselves under the 
plea of individual right. America nourished an atro-
cious traffic equally heartless and heart-rending. The
motto of abolitionists should be, 'Freedom for the Slave,
and no surrender.' The position of the question in this 
country had for some time been quiescent, but not ex-
tinct. Little attention, comparatively, had of late been
paid to it, because no great and tangible object had been
before them. They had, moreover, been embarrassed 
in their action by differences of opinion on the sugar 
duties and other matters. But the time, he thought,
had come when they should 'let by-gones be by-gones,'
and their present duty, now that they were happily once 
more united, was to marshal themselves for action. The 
question was, what was to be done? and that would be 
answered by the different speakers to whom the various 
topics that were to come before the Conference had been
entrusted. 
Mr. JOSEPH PRICE, of Neath, proposed the first res-
olution, which, after stating that eight millions of hu-
man beings are now held as chattels in the United States,
the Brazils, the Spanish, Portugese, and Dutch colo-
nies, asserted the essential immorality and unright-
eousness of the doctrine, that it is lawful for man to 
hold property in man; and encouraged the British and 
Foreign Anti-Slavery Society to prosecute its labors
with undiminished energy. Mr. Price referred in terms 
of the highest approval to the recent mission of three
'Friends' to the slave States of America, and consider-
ed that religious work had exercised a most important 
influence for good. The question, however, it must 
be confessed, wore a gloomy aspect in that country, but if 
men of business and sense would consider how they 
would enhance the value of their land by abolishing 
slavery, they would take courage and do it. If twenty
millions of pounds sterling abolished slavery in the West 
Indies, eighty millions would effect the same great ob-
ject in the United States. The time would come, he
thought when it would be found expedient by the va-
rious States to adopt this course. 
Major General THOMPSON next made a few observa-
tions. He thought that Spain was able to effect eman-
cipation in Cuba, from the fact that France had suc-
ceeded in doing so in her colonies. The Americans, he 
said, were going to take Cuba; but if the Spaniards
would preserve that island to their rule, they must abol-
ish slavery. The English government could do much 

them, even at the end of sixteen years' possession of 
their rights, but he believed, from practical knowledge,
that where justice is done to the free laborer, he gene-
rally becomes a respectable man, and a good member
of society. He referred to various laws existing in 
British Guiana, (among others, to the masters' and 
servants' act,) which he believed exercised a demoral-
izing influence upon the negro population. The speak-
er read copious extracts from the most recent reports
of several magistrates residing in the colony,  in confir-
mation of his statement that the colored people were
rapidly advancing in civilization. These documents
particularly referred to their increasing regard for ed-
ucation, and the great progress which habits of tempe-
rance had made amongst them. 
Mr. S. BOURNE, late stipendiary magistrate in Deme-
rara, said that he formed the acquaintance of Mr. Jo-
seph John Gurney when he visited the West Indies. 
Mr. Gurney asked him whether slave labor was as cheap
as free labor. At that time he was almost ready to re-
ply in the affirmative , but on making searching inqui-
ry, he came to a totally opposite conclusion. He believ-
ed that it would be of great advantage to the colonists
if cotton, as well as sugar, was cultivated. Many be-
nevolent persons of his acquaintance had been hampered
with difficulties on the subject of emancipation. He 
was ready to prove to such persons--1. That by proper-
ly draining the land, one-third more canes would be
produced. 2. That this measure would improve the 
general health, and also attract fresh capitalists to the 
colonies. 3. That the introduction of a more simple
machinery (such as had placed on view, in another
part of the building,) would double the quantity of su-
gar produced. 4. By the suitable industrial education 
of the laborers. He suggested that the Conference should
appoint a sub-committee to consider the subject. 
The Rev. W. JAMES, of Bristol, remarked that he had
conversed with gentlemen connected with the West In-
dies, who complained that the negroes would not work. 
He wished some information on this point. 
Mr. BOURNE replied that he never knew of any de-
ficiency in the labor market when a sufficient remune-
ration was offered. 
The CHAIRMAN asked if the negro would work pro-
perly for stipulated wages. 
Mr. BOURNE replied in the affirmative. 
A conversation then ensued, in which Mr. Chame-
rovzow, Mr. Woodwark, and Mr. Joseph Clark took
part. 
Mr. CHAMEROVZOW stated that the substance of the 
numerous letters that he had received from the West 
Indies on the subject, was to the effect that there was
no indisposition to work on the part of the colored pop-
ulation, and that when they refused to do so, it was al-
most invariably the fault of the planter. 
Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON earnestly recommended every
member of the Conference to peruse Dr. Davy's re-
cently published work on 'Slavery before and after 
emancipation,' which contained the results of a very 
extensive personal inquiry on the subject which had
been considered by the Conference, and furnished a 
most valuable body of evidence to all abolitionists. 
The resolution having been carried, the Conference
adjourned. 
-
FIRST DAY--AFTERNOON SITTING.
At three o' clock, the Conference reassembled, and J.
T. Price, Esq., was voted to the chair, in the absence of 
Mr. Gurney. 
M. VICTOR SCHOELCHER (a member of the late French
National Assembly) arose amid much cheering to pro-
pose the third resolution, which declared that the re-
sults of emancipation in the French West India colo-
nies were highly encouraging, considering the brief pe-
riod this measure has been in operation , and that they 
were an additional illustration of the perfect safety of
immediate abolition. M. Schoelcher reviewed the state
of public opinion in France on the slave question prior
to the revolution of 1848. One of the first acts of the
Provisional Government, (which he should ever consider 
it an honor to have been associated with) was the ab-
olition of slavery in the French colonies. They abol-
ished it without transition, and in so doing, the plant-
ers themselves had declared that the government had
acted wisely. In proof of this, he quoted from various 
colonial newspapers. With regard to the insurrection 
of negroes at Martinique, that took place before the
Act of Emancipation had taken effect--in fact, that was
a result of the revolution at home. He drew a rather
gloomy picture of the present state of the colonies under
the Empire. Slavery had been for ever abolished in 
the colonies by the decrees of the Republic, but much
injustice was still perpetuated.  The Governor of Gua-
daloupe had dismissed the Attorney General, and driven
away the Bishops, because they refused to make their
high offices subservient to compulsory labor. Pride of 
???? he thought, was an evil which takes the longest

uncalled-for expression of a desire that he would keep
closely to the question, curtly remarked, when Mr. 
Pillsbury resumed his seat, that it was not by railing 
at America that any good was to be done. 
After a few remarks by the Revs. Mr. Solly, C. Sto-
vel, and Edward Matthews and Mr. Carr, the resolution
was ordered to stand over until the following morning,
that the committee might make in it certain altera-
tions which had been suggested during the discussion.
- 
SECOND DAY. 
At the assembling of the Conference on Thursday 
morning, JOHN CROPPER, Esq., of Liverpool, having
been requested to occupy the chair, opened the meeting 
with a few brief observations. 
Mr. JOHN CANDLER then moved a resolution in ref-
erence to the extinction of the slave trade in Brazil,
which was seconded by Mr. ROBERT CHARLTON, and 
supported by Mr. WILSON BURGESS.
A gentleman inquired whether the prejudice against
color in Brazil was as great as in the United States. 
Mr. BURGESS believed it was not, and attributed the 
fact to the circumstance that the Brazilians were them-
selves so very near the complexion of their slaves. 
(Laughter.)
The resolution was then put and carried unani-
mously.
The Rev. JAMES SHERMAN, in an able and eloquent 
speech, next proposed a resolution on the subject of sla-
very in the United States, which was as follows : ---
'That whilst this Conference cherishes the most friend-
ly disposition towards the people of the United States, 
it cannot contemplate without the deepest sorrow the
revolting spectacle presented by the existence in their 
midst of the institution of slavery, which by various
compromises under the Constitution they have recog-
nized as national, and otherwise sanctioned and sup-
ported, until it has attained to colossal dimensions, and 
embraced in its oppressive grasp nearly three millions
and a half of their fellow-citizens. Nor can this Con-
ference refrain from expressing its reprobation of those 
professing ministers of the Gospel, who vindicate, by 
the perversion of Scripture, and vitally strengthen this
iniquitous institution; or who, whilst admitting the 
enormity of the evil and its unrighteousness, neither 
bear a testimony against it nor labor for its abolition. 
In view, therefore, of the extensive implication of the 
great majority of the churches of America in the system 
of slavery, and of the flagrant reproach thus brought
upon the Christian religion, this Conference deems it 
to be its solemn duty to call upon the various religious
denominations in the United Kingdom individually and 
unitedly to protest against this dishonor to God, and 
this outrage upon the inalienable rights of man, and to 
use all appropriate means to awaken the American 
churches thus implicated to a sense of guilt and re-
sponsibility which inseparably attach to the counte-
nance and support of such a system. Whilst, howev-
er, this Conference deems it to be its duty to repro-
bate the inconsistent and criminal conduct of those pro-
fessing Christians in the United States who practise 
slaveholding, or apologise for it, it would joyfully recog-
nise and assure of its sympathy and respect, such reli-
gious bodies and individual churches as exclude slave-
holders from their communion, and exert their influence
in favor of the anti-slavery cause, and would commend 
them to the fraternal regard of every true Christian. 
This Conference also regards it as a duty to embrace
the present opportunity of specially adverting to the
noble conduct of those eminent men in the United States
Congress, who have opposed the designs of the pro-sla-
very party; and whilst earnestly exhorting them to
renewed exertions in their honorable career, would as-
sure them of the respect and esteem of British philan-
thropists. Lastly, this Conference would express its 
cordial sympathy with the abolitionists of America
generally, for the fidelity and integrity with which
they have demanded the immediate and unconditional 
abolition of slavery, and the uncompromising persever-
ance with which they have pursued their purpose, in 
spite of many perils, of the bitterest persecution and 
reproach, and in the face of a corrupt public sentiment,
and would encourage them to persevere in pleading for 
the millions yet bowed beneath the yoke, assured that,
under the Divine blessing, the righteousness of their
cause will ultimately prevail. 
Mr. DUNCAN MCLEREN, late Lord Provost of Edin-
burgh, seconded the resolution. He was glad to sup-
port it, because it entered into no metaphysical subtle-
ties or niceties, and most vehemently condemned slave-
ry--an institution which he regarded as containing all 
the worst evils that afflict society. He believed the 
resolution would have great weight, as the Americans
are very susceptible of public opinion. 
Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, said that he rose
to propose the insertion of a clause which he thought
would supply a most important omission in the resolu-
tion. As far as it went, the resolution was admirable,

not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge,
and under falsehood have we hid ourselves.
Judgement will I lay to the line, and righteousness
to the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away
the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the
hiding place. And your covenant with death shall 
be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall
not stand. When the overflowing scourge shall
pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.'
'Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom
this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear
ye their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of 
hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let 
him be your dread.'--Isa. xxix: 15, 16; xxviii:
14-18; viii: 12, 13.--Boston Christian Freeman.

SHALL KANSAS BE FREE?
Mr. Mace, of Indiana, has given notice of his
intention to introduce a bill prohibiting slavery in
Kansas and Nebraska. For this early and yet
timely movement, he is entitled to the thanks of
the friends of freedom throughout the country.
Objections will be made by the timid and the time-
serving; we shall hear much small talk about the
inexpediency of reviving the agitations of the last
session; we shall be told that the attempt is useless
and dangerous. But, for all this, we hope
Mr. Mace will persevere. The dying man is not
abandoned until every remedy has been tried,
and the great West ought not to be left to the doom
of slavery, while a single wise and courageous man
remains in Congress to resist its encroachments.
We think that every effort, however unpromising,
is worth making in behalf of freedom. No man
can tell what will be the result of a well-directed
blow; a single word spoken in season or apparently
out of season, may save Kansas for freedom, 
and with her how many other embryo States!
Those who are disposed to complain, ought to remember
the greatness of this question. Within
its present limits we find slavery hard to manage.
It legislates, directs, controls, bestows offices and
shapes policy. It governs the army and the navy,
modifies tariffs, calls out our local militia, kidnaps
our citizens, spends our money in negro-catching,
makes Presidents, imprisons freemen, divides the
church, exposes us to foreign war, defies treaties,
and in every department of the body politic, like a 
subtle poison, makes itself felt for evil.
This is slavery as it is--arrogant, though confined
within certain limits, though bankrupt,
though in a minority. What will it be if the
schemes which it has already projected, and to a
certain extent developed, are successfully carried
out? What will it be when it has a majority in
the Senate and the House--when it is under no
necessity of concealing its designs--when it is independent
of Northern parties? We need not answer
the question; every sensible reader, who
knows the infirmities of power, and the conflicting
interests of slavery and freedom, can answer it for
himself. It is enough for us to know that the admission
of one slave State increases the chances of
the extension of slavery everywhere, for such will
be its inevitable moral tendency. An immense
public domain, as yet unvexed by the plough, and
as well fitted for slave labor as any acres of God's
world can be, already appeals to us, mutely but
not less forcibly, for preservation from an evil sufficient
to sap the foundations of a well-established
empire, and ten times more fatal to a virgin State.
And when Mr. Mace, or any other member of Congress,
rises in his seat, and proposes to prohibit
slavery in Kansas, he speaks not only for her, but
for all her future sisters in the confederacy, not
only for the present, but for unborn generations.
No matter how few may be the votes which sustain 
his motion. Though defeated, it can never
be disgracefully defeated, and it will be sure to
answer some good purpose, if not the great one
intended. The oftener Northern members are
obliged to say 'Yes' or 'No' on slavery issues,
the better; and when this question is put, we shall
know how much dough has been baked in the fires
of the recent elections.
Nor can the advocates of slavery complain that
an attempt has been made, at this time, to restore
the anti-slavery ordinance. They were warned,
over and over again during the last session, that
this would be done. When the Cabinet was striving
not only to send the curse of slavery to Kansas,
but to strangle freedom in the House of Representatives,
the struggling friends of sound legislation
declared in advance that, though defeated, they
would return to the contest. The conspiracy was
successful; bribery, intimidation, a certain bold,
unblushing impudence, and the influence of a party
drill, triumphed over ancient compacts and still
more ancient principles. We admit that the heart
of the House was never with this false and dishon-

public life, that I shall inflexibly remain--the ardent
friend and supporter of Free-trade and the rights
of industry--of the absolute and perfect equality
of all religious sects--of the largest practicable
increase of the independent political power of the
people--of justice to our colonies, and especially
to the conquered subjects of our vast Indian Empire--
of the existence of the moral influence of this
nation in favor of the total and universal extinction
of slavery and the slave trade; and, finally,
of the Christian principles of Peace--especially
the substitution of pacific arbitration, in all international
disputes, for the present senseless, absurd
and bloody appeal to the sword; and the
gradual overthrow of those gigantic military institutions
of Europe which menace the tranquility
of the world, are the strongest bulwarks of despotism,
and the most formidable obstacles to the advancement
of civilization, and the triumphs of pure
and undefiled religion.
I shall hold MORALITY to be the true foundation
of all POLITICS, and shall first enquire--not what
is EXPEDIENT, but what is RIGHT; regarding it as
ever in the highest degree inexpedient, and in the
end necessarily injurious, to depart from the principles
of truth and rectitude. I shall endeavor to
test all questions by the unadulterated standard of
Christian ethics, and by their bearing--not on the
prospects or projects of a party, but upon the
widest and best interests of the human race; trying
to adhere to what is morally right--right
everywhere, and right for all time. Conducted on
these principles, THE EMPIRE will not be a strict
party paper, but will be the friend of every party
that shall prove its desire to carry out, in whatever
direction, the maxims of individual, national and
universal justice.
I have a high veneration for the BRITISH CONSTITUTION;
but I do not regard every INSTITUTION that
has grown up under it as of equal sacredness and
value with the Constitution itself. Institutions
are but the machinery for promoting the liberties,
and securing the rights of the people, and like all
other things which are the offspring of mere human
invention, are liable to defects, and prone to decay.
They are means to an end, and should never be regarded
as the end itself. Institutions for men, not
men for institutions, will be the watchwords of
this journal. I hold the opinion of Wordsworth, that
Our life is turned
Out of its course, whenever MAN is made
An offering, or a sacrifice, a tool,
Or implement, a passive thing employed
As a brute mean, without acknowledgement
Of common right or interest in the end.
In contemplating my future editorial career, I
neither expect nor desire to avoid controversy; but
it shall be my study and my effort to show myself an
honorable and just-minded antagonist, and to preserve
the columns of this paper unstained by calumny,
and uncorrupted by selfishness. While I
shall claim and exercise 'the liberty to know, to
think, to believe, and to utter, freely, according to
my conscience,' I shall, as I have ever done, most
scrupulously respect the same right of free utterance
in my contemporaries, and be ready to do
battle for it as ardently on behalf of others as for
myself.
I enter upon my present labors and responsibilities
unpatronised and unprotected by any party in
Church or State, and I look for support to those
only who respect individual independence and political
integrity, and who may desire to aid me in
an earnest effort to contribute something towards
the creation of a public sentiment, that shall give
ardor to virtue, confidence to truth, and freedom
to mankind.
I have toiled long enough in the cause of reform
and progress to be prepared for any measure of disappointment
which may befall me. I have never
yet stipulated, and do not now stipulate, for success.
If I can satisfy myself that I have done my duty,
I shall rest contented with the issue.
GEORGE THOMPSON.

SOUTHERN REVIVALS. The editor of Western
Christian Advocate says--'We have the following
on authority that admits of no questioning:
Recently, in a town of a certain slave State, a revival
took place in the church under the charge of
Rev. Mr. -------. During the meeting, a slave-
trader professed conversion, and joined the church,
and a local preacher became much encouraged
thereat. Soon after the close of the meeting, the
slave trader made a purchase from the local
preacher of a slave woman who had a child at her
breast. The trader not wishing the child, and the
mother refusing to go without it, strong cords
were obtained; a dray was sent for; she was tied
hands and feet, and was carried by main force and
strapped down to the dray, and was thus driven off.'

Should the Companies here designated consent to receive
the BLOOD MONEY awarded to them by the General
Government, for their services in kidnapping poor
Burns, they will make their infamy sure and lasting.
If they were ordered out, on that inglorious occasion,
simply to preserve the peace of the city, (as Mayor
Smith pretended,) then their remuneration is no concern
of the General Government; and behind this plea
they have skulked till now, to shield themselves from
popular contempt. The acceptance of this BLOOD
MONEY will constitute every officer and private, who took
part in that tragedy, willing accomplices in kidnapping,
and they will deserve to be hissed and groaned at afresh,
every time they appear on parade.

REV. CALVIN FAIRBANK.
The letter from Mrs. LAURA S. HAVILAND, on our
first page, respecting the condition of this unfortunate
victim of Southern despotism, will be read with a thrill
of horror. It will be recollected that Mr. Fairbank,
while sojourning in Indiana, was actually abducted by
a band of ruffians from Kentucky, carried into the latter
State, thrust into prison, and finally tried and sentenced
to fifteen years' imprisonment in the Penitentiary,
on the charge of having aided a female slave to
obtain her freedom by flight. He was seized against all
law, and convicted without evidence. His abduction
(aside from the allegation made against him) should
have promptly led the Governor of Indiana to demand
his liberation, but no notice was taken of it, and no excitement
followed among the people of that State. And
it appears that there is no hope of his pardon--the
Governor of Kentucky declaring, 'All the wealth of
Kentucky would not make me pardon him.' It also
appears that Mr. F. has been most cruelly flogged by
order of the keeper of the prison, (Craig,) whose villanous
spirit has been freshly exhibited in his attempt
to ruin the character of Miss Delia Webster, force her
to abandon her property, and flee from Indiana for
self-preservation, because sympathising with the oppressed.
We trust this letter will have the widest circulation,
and be the means of deepening the popular
abhorrence of slavery and all its abettors.

FATE OF ANTHONY BURNS.
The Evening Telegraph says it has information
which is authentic, that this poor victim of a treacherous
master and cowardly Mayor, was sold by the miserable
Suttle to a North Carolina negro trader, (after
$1400 had been tendered both here and in Virginia, and
after he had promised to let Rev. Mr. Grimes have him,)
for the sum of $700, with a condition in the bond that
he should never be sold to go North. And this is the
fate of this poor victim!

CONGRESS.
In the U. S. Senate, last week, Mr. Sumner presented
the memorial of the Baptist Free Mission Society
of New England, praying for the repeal of the Kanzas-
Nebraska Bill, and the Fugitive Slave Law. He moved
that they be laid on the table, as Mr. Chase will soon
call up his bill for the prohibition of slavery in the Territories.

Ex-Governor Dorr died on the morning of the
27th inst., about 8 o'clock, at the residence of his
father, in Benefit street, Providence.

with undiminished energy. Mr. Price referred in terms
of the highest approval to the recent mission of three
'Friends' to the slave States of America, and considered
that religious work had exercised a most important
influence for good. The question, however, it must be
confessed, wore a gloomy aspect in that country, but if
men of business and sense would consider how they
would enhance the value of their land by abolishing
slavery, they would take courage and do it. If twenty
millions of pounds sterling abolished slavery in the West
Indies, eighty millions would effect the same great object
in the United States. The time would come, he
thought, when it would be found expedient by the various
States to adopt this course.
Major General THOMPSON next made a few observations.
He thought that Spain was able to effect emancipation
in Cuba, from the fact that France had succeeded
in doing so in her colonies. The Americans, he
said, were going to take Cuba; but if the Spaniards
would preserve that island to their rule, they must abolish
slavery. The English government could do much
to bring about this happy result; and they had a great
political interest in its accomplishment, for if Cuba became
the possession of the Slave Power, nothing could
save the West Indies from its grasp. The question was
one of vast importance, as the possession of Cuba by
the United States was only part of one vast scheme for
the universal spread of slavery over all tropical regions.
The Rev. JOHN WOODWARK seconded the resolution
proposed by Mr. Price. He urged the importance of the
wide-spread diffusion of suitable tracts and other publications.
He thought the Anti-Slavery Reporter
should be more generally read.
The Rev. EDWARD MATHEWS, of Wisconsin, expressed
the opinion that the quiescent state of the anti-slavery
question in England, referred to in Mr. Hinton's paper,
was owing to the quieting and repressive influence exerted
by churches and bodies of professing Christians in
America over kindred churches on this side of the Atlantic.
The resolution was then put to the vote, and unanimously
passed.
The Rev. P. H. CORNFORD (late missionary to Jamaica)
proposed the second resolution, which declared that
the results of West India emancipation were on the whole
truly gratifying and satisfactory; and that most of the
evils existing in the West Indies were attributable either
to the pernicious influences of slavery, or to other causes
altogether irrespective of the Act of Emancipation.
Mr. CRAWFORD, in the course of a long and able
speech, mainly animadverted on the 'truck' and 'contract'
systems, and the introduction of free emigrants,
as exercising a very injurious influence upon the physical
and moral condition of the free laborers of the West
India islands. He paid a high tribute to the character
of the negroes of those islands, and declared that they
were a most industrious class; but, he asked, what has
the commercial question to do with the right or the
wrong of slavery? As well might one ask what is the
value of virtue, or the worth of justice. One out of
every six of the colored population were members of
Christian churches, and none were admitted without
the most rigid test of their qualification. The Baptist
Missionary Society found that, at the present time, all
the money they had ever spent in the West Indies was
from those represented in chapels, school-houses, and
other religious property built by colored communicants
in Baptist churches. The great tread-mill erected at
or near Port Maria, under the apprehension that emancipation
would engender a vast amount of crime among
the blacks, had never been used, and he had not heard,
during his long residence among them, of one of their
number breaking into a house at night. Indeed, their
vices were quite of a venal character. Black men occupied
pulpits, black men filled important posts in the
press, and they even took their places as legislators in
the House of Assembly. The speaker concluded by an
eloquent denunciation of the doctrine that man can
hold property in man.
The Rev. Mr. HENDERSON, of British Guiana, seconded
the resolution. He referred to the gigantic evils
which slavery must necessarily create among the enslaved
population, many of which must still cling to

immediate abolition. M. Schoelcher reviewed the state
of public opinion in France on the slave question prior
to the revolution of 1848. One of the first acts of the
Provisional Government, (which he should ever consider
it an honor to have been associated with) was the abolition
of slavery in the French colonies. They abolished
it without transition, and in so doing, the planters
themselves had declared that the government had
acted wisely. In proof of this, he quoted from various
colonial newspapers. With regard to the insurrection
of negroes at Martinique, that took place before the
Act of Emancipation had taken effect--in fact, that was
a result of the revolution at home. He drew a rather
gloomy picture of the present state of the colonies under
the Empire. Slavery had been for ever abolished in
the colonies by the decrees of the Republic, but much
injustice was still perpetuated. The Governor of Guadaloupe
had dismissed the Attorney General, and driven
away the Bishops, because they refused to make their
high offices subservient to compulsory labor. Pride of
caste, he thought, was an evil which takes the longest
time to cure. It is because the free blacks have had
the impudence to say, 'Am I not as much as you?'
that these difficulties have arisen. But there is order
now in the Antilles, as there is in Paris. Any negro is
liable to be arrested on the highway, if he have not a
passport, for which he is obliged to pay. The education
of the blacks is subjected to equally obnoxious regulations.
He spoke of the evils of free immigration,
connected with which there are always the evils of slavery.
But he found consolation in the fact, that the
destiny of evil is to be temporary, of good to be everlasting.
He referred to the statement that the European
republican leaders had agreed to overlook the American
slavery. It could not be so. He, for one, as a Republican,
believed that slavery is nowhere so great a shame
as in a republic. He denounced, in terms of strong indignation,
the slavery of the United States, but believed
that the American abolitionists would yet overthrow
this, its last stronghold. M. Schoelcher's address was
frequently interrupted by the plaudits of the audience.
In reply to a question, he stated that 120,000,000
francs had been paid as compensation to the slaveholders
by the French government.
Mr. STURGE stated that he believed no man had done
more than Victor Schoelcher towards effecting emancipation
in the French colonies.
Mr. CHAMEROVZOW said that he had ascertained from
French colonial authorities, that the prosperity of the
Bourbon and of the other islands had considerably increased
since the abolition of slavery.
Mr. G. W. ALEXANDER, after paying a tribute of respect
to the anti-slavery labors of Schoelcher, Lamartine,
and Arago, stated that, during a recent visit he
had paid to Guadaloupe and Martinique, he was glad
to find but little of the prejudice against color.
The resolution was then passed unanimously.
Mr. CHAMEROVZOW brought forward a resolution,
which lamented the continued existence of the Cuban
slave trade, and urged upon the Spanish Government
the fulfilment of the solemn engagement to effect its
abolition, which it had entered into by treaty, as well
as by the acceptance of £400,000 as compensation.
Mr. STURGE briefly moved, and Mr. ISAAC BASS, of
Brighton, seconded the resolution.
Mr. RALPH CARR, of Waterford, urged the greater
importance of the land slave trade over the sea slave
trade, considering, as he did, that the latter could not
exist without the former.
After a suggestion from the Rev. James Ballantyne,
M.A., of Edinburgh,
Mr. PARKER PILLSBURY, of Boston, in a short but
eloquent speech, referred to the deliberate violation of
the slave trade statutes of the United States by the
Government of that country, in proof of the uselessness
of remonstrating with the Spanish authorities. Nineteen
thousand Africans were imported into the States
every year, and nobody could wonder at it, seeing that
nearly every President is a slaveholder, and being one
is a recommendation to the office. Slavery has only to
say, 'Do this,' and it is done; and it will obtain
Cuba.
The Chairman, Mr. Price, who had once interrupted
Mr. Pillsbury in the course of his speech by a most

they have demanded the immediate and unconditional
abolition of slaver, and the uncompromising perseverance
with which they have pursued their purpose, in
spite of many perils, of the bitterest persecution and
reproach, and in the face of a corrupt public sentiment,
and would encourage them to persevere in pleading for
the millions yet bowed beneath the yoke, assured that,
under the Divine blessing, the righteousness of their
cause will ultimately prevail.
Mr. DUNCAN MCLEREN, late Lord Provost of Edinburgh,
seconded the resolution. He was glad to support
it, because, it entered into no metaphysical subtleties
or niceties, and most vehemently condemned slavery
--an institution which he regarded as containing all
the worst evils that afflict society. He believed the
resolution would have great weight, as the Americans
are very susceptible of public opinion.
Rev. FRANCIS BISHOP, of Liverpool, said that he rose
to propose the insertion of a clause which he thought
would supply a most important omission in the resolution.
As far as it went, the resolution was admirable,
but it did not go far enough. It mentioned the anti-
slavery Senators of the United States, but it carefully
omitted all distinct reference to those whose claims were
infinitely higher; he alluded to the pioneers in the
cause of abolition, the members of the American Anti-
Slavery Society, without whose devoted and self-denying
labors the subject of slavery never would or could
have been introduced into the American Congress. He
would not conceal from the meeting, that he was fully
aware that in taking this course, he was running counter
to the feelings of many gentlemen present, for
whom he entertained the highest respect; but he hoped
that, though opposed to their feelings, his proposal
was not inconsistent with their principles. The American
Anti-Slavery Society had been grossly maligned by
ministers and others from the United States, who
were known at home as among the most decided enemies
of the anti-slavery cause, but who, when in this
country, professed a righteous abhorrence of the institution
in the abstract, and showed their sincerity by insidious
attacks on the character and proceedings of
those who, in America, had consecrated their lives to
the overthrow of the huge iniquity. Hence had arisen
the cry of infidelity against that Society,--a cry into
an examination of which he would not then enter,
though quite prepared to do so if necessary, from a desire
not to lead the way needlessly into discussions not
essentially involved in the subject before them. He
was quite willing, adopting an expression used in the
early part of the Conference, to 'let bygones be bygones,'
if they had determined for the future to stand
on a broad and catholic platform, and to work with a
pure and single-minded reference to the cause of the
slave. Nothing less than this could be satisfactory,
and he called upon them to show that this was their intention
by expressly naming in their resolution the
American Anti-Slavery Society, and the American and
Foreign. He knew, indeed, but little about the latter
Society, which he seldom heard of when in America,
and he only proposed it in deference to what he believed
to be the wishes and predilections of others; but the
former, which was the Parent Society, established in
1833, he saw in active operation, and they had the best
evidence of its efficiency in the dread with which it was
viewed by the Slave Power, and the abuse of which it
is continually the subject in all parts of the Union. It
was, in truth, the embodiment and representative of the
anti-slavery cause in America, and its supporters had
to work continually in the face of obloquy and persecutions
which must be seen and heard to be understood,
and which nothing could enable them to withstand
but their undying faith in truth, in justice, and
in God. He called upon them, therefore, distinctly to
express their cordial sympathy with this intrepid, uncompromising,
and truly Christian band of workers in
the cause of human freedom.
The Rev. W. JAMES, of Bristol, seconded the proposal.
Mr. JOSEPH STURGE implored his friends not to press
their amendment. He thought that the resolu[?]
stood was sufficiently broad and c[?]r[?]
that harmony would best he pres[?]
of no particular Society.

DECEMBER 29. THE LIBERATOR. 207

Mr. McLAREN, being appealed to, objected to the
proposed addendum, on the ground of his ignorance of
the character of the various American Anti-Slavery
Societies, and of the fact that the resolution included all
abolitionists.

The Rev. W. JAMES maintained the catholicity of the
anti-slavery platform, and was at a loss to understand
why the committee should object to a recognition of the
services of the most important Anti-Slavery Society in
America.

The Rev. S. R. Ward was satisfied with the resolution,
because he considered that the phrase 'the abolitionists
generally,' included the American and Foreign
Society, to which he belonged.

The Rev. F. BISHOP said that is was necessary distinctly 
to recognize the American Anti-Slavery Society, 
as it had been generally understood, that under a false 
guidance, the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Committee, 
under whose auspices they were then assembled, 
had repudiated that Society, on the false ground of its 
alleged infidelity ; and it had often been said that they 
had a resolution on their books condemnatory of the 
Society. He should like to have some assurance on that 
point as to the actual state of the case.

Mr. CHAMEROVZOW denied unqualifiedly that there 
was any ground for such a statement.

Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON paid a glowing tribute of respect 
to the American Anti-Slavery Society. Originally
he was in favor of a distinct mention of it in the resolution, 
but taking into account various circumstances, 
he was disposed not to press the point at the present
time, if he could understand that the Committee intended 
for the future to reject no one whom the slave
does not reject. If he could do this, he would suggest
to Mr. Bishop the withdrawal of his amendment.

Mr. JOSIAH FORSTER said they ought not to be called
upon to answer such a question off-hand and without
notice. It ought to be proposed in writing. How
could they be expected to be able to speak with confidence 
as to every resolution in their books, extending
over a large number of years?

Mr. BISHOP, upon being further appealed to, said he
felt himself in a difficulty. The Secretary had given a 
satisfactory answer to his question, and he was about,
in consequence, to withdraw his amendment; but Mr.
Forster had by implication thrown doubt on the Secretary's
reply, and compelled him, Mr. B., to persevere.

Mr. CHAMROVZOW declared that he had carefully
searched the books, and that no resolution condemning
or misrepresenting the American Society had ever appeared
on the minutes of the Committee; and that
they were animated by a desire to receive all abolitionists
to their platform and fellowship.

Mr. BISHOP then said, that after that public and official
declaration, he withdrew his amendment; but he
hoped they would, for consistency's sake, strike out
of their resolution the reference to anti-slavery 
members of Congress.

Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON urged that this should be
done, as, in truth, there were no members in the American 
Congress who held to the principles of anti- slavery
as they were understood and acknowledged by that 
Conference.

This suggestion was agreed to, and, a few
words from Mr. Sturge, thanking the friends for withdrawing
their amendment.

Mr. PARKER PILLSBURY was called upon and delivered
a speech of great eloquence and power, which produced
a deep impression on the meeting.  The manly
fidelity, and the bold, uncompromising truthfulness
with which he spoke, enchained the attention of all,
and commanded the respect of even those who must
have most felt the strength of his rebukes. We are
sorry that we are unable at present to give his remarks
 at length. He expressed his regret that Mr. Bishop
had been induced to withdraw his amendment. He severely
animadverted on the past course of the British
and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, in reference to the
American Society. He denounced Mr. John Scoble,
and charged him with having sought to blast and 
blacken the character of William Lloyd Garrison and
his associates. He next reviewed the progress of the
Slave Power since 1829; exposed the corrupt state of
American politics at the present time; expressed his
belief that the political organizations against slavery
were useless; and that the true motto for abolitionists
to adopt is that of 'No Union with Slaveholders.'
He criticised, at great length, the proceedings of the
deputation of friends to the United States, and declared
that a large number of American 'Friends'
were false to the slave. He illustrated the latter
charge by several facts of which he was personally
cognisant. Referring to the religious bodies of America,
he characterised the course pursued by the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions as
having been grossly profligate and wicked. He accused
it of having systemically supported slavery, and of
[?]
depths of the heart, went, we feel assured, to the hearts
of many present, leaving an impression that will not
soon be effaced. It was felt, however, by the friends
who took part in the discussion in the earlier part of
the day, that they could not, after having consented
to withdraw their amendment, reopen the question.

A member of the Conference, whose name we did not
gather, said that it was not unreasonable if these people
(the Am. A.S. Society) had lost their character, that
they should come and ask the conference to endorse it.

After a few words from Mr. PILLSBURY, Mr. BISHOP 
appealed to the Chairman (Mr. Price, Mr. McLaren 
having been obliged to leave the meeting at an earlier
period) to require the above gentleman to withdraw his 
most offensive and unjustifiable remark. This call met
with the warm and general approval of the meeting,
though the Chairman had not seen it to be unbecoming
in him to allow the remark to pass, and the gentleman 
complained of rose and said that if he has uttered anything
that was improper, he was sorry for it, and begged
to withdraw it.

It was resolved, rather hurriedly, and amid the bustle
of breaking up, to hold a World's Anti-Slavery
Conference in Paris next year.

LECTURE OF WENDELL PHILLIPS
AT THE TREMONT TEMPLE

The fourth of the Independent Course of Anti-Slavery
Lectures was delivered in the Tremont Temple, in this
city, on Thursday evening of last week, by Wendell
Phillips, Esq. to a crowded and brilliant assembly.
It was listened to with intense interest, and, not withstanding
its radical character, was warmly applauded.
It was of course, characterised by his usual eloquence.
Mr. P. spoke in substance as follows:—

Ladies and Gentlemen,—I am asked to speak to
you on the subject of slavery. It is a very broad
question. To lift but a corner of the dark curtain that
shrouds it will crowd, if it does not trespass far beyond 
the hour that you lend me to-night. I ask your patience,
therefore, if an abolitionist, at such an epoch as
this, which, so unexpectedly to all of us, crowds these
walls, night after night, with listening thousands, to
hear a lecture on slavery—at such a 'good time,' not
'coming,' but come—should talk to you a little longer
than the ordinary measure of a literary lecture. I
ask, too, your constant recollection that this is no question
of ours. It is too large a question to be the hobby 
of an individual; it is too large a question to belong
to any party; it concerns us all—every man who loves 
his country; it touches our common interest and our 
common honor.

It is your question; not the question of those who
speak from this platform. 'If you love your
country,' said Edmund Burke,' See to it that you
make her worthy to be loved." When Daniel Webster
came home from abroad, and found that some of the
States had repudiated their debts to Europe, he said to
the farmers of the West, 'I would work those arms to
the elbow to wipe off a blot from the remotest corner of
my country.' If this be duty when we owe debts of
silver and gold, how earnest should be the effort to
pay the debt of justice and mercy that we owe to God
as well as our fellow-man!  (Applause.) 

It is a very grave question, that of slavery. No
man doubts how it will end. Slavery is to be abolished,
because a just God reigns. (Loud cheers.) The
question for us is—How? and When? and What can 
we do to hasten it? How shall we earn for ourselves
the great benefit and the honor of laborers with God in
thus ministering to the welfare of millions of our fellow-men?
How shall slavery be abolished? That is our
question. What can we do to abolish it, as citizens and
as Christians?

Friends, we sometimes mistake the slave question,
by supposing it to be a mere question of the blacks—a
mere question of sympathy. It was so once. It was 
a question once which touched only the colored man.
It has long ceased to be that. The rights which we
remorselessly sacrificed, when they were the rights of
the colored man only, have been fully avenged upon us,
and this question of slavery has become the question of
the age here. It is no question of the South; it is no 
question of the blacks; it is the question of free speech
in Massachusetts and Faneuil Hall. (Applause.)
We mean to vindicate that right by all the laws that are
left us; and when there are no laws left us, we will go
to that higher law that can never be repealed. (Applause.)
It is a question of the whites; whether this
great experiment of popular government is to be successful;
whether our institutions, as our fathers gave
them to us, are to be handed down to our children.

They knew well what the system of slavery was at
the South; a system that makes a man a thing—that 
robs him of his wages—that robs him of his wife and
his children—that practically robs him of the Gospel—
that robs him of every thing that makes a distinction
[?]

him, 'Mr. Phillips, you are right, no doubt; but the
principles you advocate would cause the grass to grow
in Milk street, and we can not afford it.'

The anti-slavery sentiment, to contend with such a 
power, must be a deep, radical, outspoken, determined,
vigilant sentiment—one which had become a conviction,
and passed into an instinctive element of character.  
They wanted to abolish slavery, and they sought to do 
this by sending up men to Washington, putting a different 
voice into the pulpit and into the press. How
should they effect this?  These were all weathercocks,
the whole of them. Make the wind right, and they 
would all point North. (Cheers.) 'When the Greenlanders
want hot weather,' says an old traveler, 'they
boil the thermometer.' (Laughter.) That man who
wished an anti-slavery effect, and went up to Washington
to beseech a politician on the subject, without first
creating the heat at home, would be just as wise.
'Parties,' says Lord John Russell,' are like snakes;
the tail moves the head.' (Laughter and applause.)

Was there a public sentiment her to be relied on?
Did it treat this sin of slavery like other sins? Was
it willing to brand the slaveholder and his abettor as a
sinner, as it would a thief and a murderer? Mat.
Ward, in Kentucky, shot a Yankee schoolmaster. The 
jury acquitted him; but Kentucky knew he was guilty
of murder, and Kentucky thinks murder is a sin—thinks
it with her whole heart—believes it—realizes it—
means it when she says it; and she spewed him out.
She sent him to Illinois and Indiana, but he found no
rest for the sole of his feet, and he went o New Orleans,
and took refuge beyond the ocean. There were
men walking in this city who had done a fouller deed
than Mat. Ward. They had given him up to a bondage which
was worse than death, a man who had proved a better
title to be free than any they had, for we were born
free -- an accident, no merit of ours; but the man born 
under slavery, who had a heart to imagine the liberty
which he did not see, and a right arm to vindicate his
claim to it, and put his feet on the soil of Massachusetts,
had proved before God a better fitness for freedom
than we who were simply born upon the soil. (Loud
applause.) Such a man as that, men who still walk 
our streets had thrust into the hell of bondage. No
public sentiment made them quit Boston, or made the
streets too hot for them to tread. The slave commissioner—
he was unworthy the name of judge, since he
made up his mind before he sat in the case—lives
amongst us. His circle takes his hand as freely as
ever. And those who abetted them, where are they?
Reelected to office in the very city in which he stood.
(Shame, shame.) There were evidence of what? A
public sentiment against slavery as strong as Kentucky
has against murder? No; a qualified, half-way,
faltering, skulking public sentiment, that hides itself
in corners, that contents itself in words, that does not 
fill the heart of the whole community, that does not
speak out and make itself obeyed. What right had we
to call ourselves an anti-slavery State, on that tenure
on which Kentucky could call herself an anti-murder
State? None.

He allowed there was a kind of anti-slavery among
us; but how much?—what could it do? Did it make
men tremble before it? Did it make itself heard in the 
press, in the pulpit? Did it take up Massachusetts by
the four corners, and shake out the Curtises and the
Lorings?* He would he had a drink of water to rinse
his lips after naming them! (Loud applause.)

Mr. Phillips then proceeded to criticise, at some
length, the institutions of the country—judging them
by the men which they created, and contrasting
their conduct with that of the great men of the early
days of the Republic. Our country, he said, was rich 
in glorious names far back—men who did their duty to
their generation, and acted up to their light. The inheritance
of their good name was his as well as that
of his fellow-citizens. He would utter no unjust criticism
upon them. But what had our government done?
Washington was the product of colonial institutions.
He was a great man. There was but one blot upon his
fame—and that they would be almost willing, treading
reverently backward, to cover with the mantle of their
charity, when the slave was freed, and they could afford 
to. Washington, a Virginia slaveholder, educated 
in the midst of slavery, wrote that letter to the Collector 
of Portsmouth, with which they are all familiar,
requesting him to return a fugitive slave who had escaped 
from Mt. Vernon, if it would not offend the prejudices
of the people of New Hampshire; for he would
not agitate the community by a claim which would offend 
their consciences. That was the product of colonial 
institutions.  But, at the very time that Washington 
wrote that letter, there was running about on a New 
Hampshire farm, a bare-footed boy, whom God gifted 
with the noblest, intellect, perhaps, of his age. He 
grew up into manhood. All that the pulpit, all that the 
school could do for him, was done. He walked in the 
highest walks of American responsibility. When he 
[?]

do, their creators. The Catholic priest was created by 
a pope, and he reflected him; the Episcopal ministry
was created by the aristocracy of England, and represents
it; and Macaulay describes it truly when he
says that the Episcopal church has never found itself,
even by accident, for one hundred and fifty years, on
the side of the people.

His method to meet question was, the scholars
having turned out such poor scholars, to change the
school. What a 'large lapse' had they fallen from the 
'battlements of heaven'— from Washington and Jay to 
-- Pierce and Cushing!  (Loud cheers.)  Our politicians 
were bought, our merchants were vassals, and the press 
was in chains.  Why, there were the Harpers, millionaires, 
able, certainly, to afford to keep a conscience, 
and yet not daring to republish an English work which 
had a portion of it devoted to the anti-slavery cause.  
We would change this Union (said Mr. Phillips) -- dissolve 
it—break it to pieces, and tear this Constitution, 
which every man praises but us, into tatters. (Applause.)

Suppose for a moment that the States were broken 
asunder, what would the result be?  Suppose the Southern 
States were left alone, what would they have to 
do?  Support a government.  What was necessary to 
support a government?  Pay for it. How much did it
cost to support a government? Millions.  How much 
did it cost to support a government when three millions 
of people were kept in chains,  and only five millions to 
do it, and the three millions restless and uneasy, and 
the spirit of the nineteenth century arming them to get 
rid of their fetters?  It costs a great deal.  How were 
the Southern States to find the means?  They must educate 
their labor, for educated labor was the only basis 
upon which a novernment could get taxation enough, 
in the keen competition of this day.  Educate a slave!  
Put gunpowder into your cellar.  What had educated 
labor always done?  Broken its fetter, and vindicated 
the right of the laborer to freedom.  (Applause.)  All 
the wealth of the South could not support a government 
with three millions of educated slaves to be kept down.  
There were only two alternatives before the South when 
the Union was broken, -- one was bankruptcy,. with uneducated 
labor; the other emancipation, if they educated 
the slaves.

If Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and New England 
did not pour the resources of free industry into the 
shrunken veins of the wasted labor of the South, it 
never could have supported itself to this moment.  Put 
it out there in the sunshine, on the promontory of its 
own responsibility, -- that was all the slave asked of 
us.  He did not ask us to vindicate him in a resort to 
arms, as our fathers did at Bunker Hill.  We need not 
tell him  that 'resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.'  
No, the craven sensibility of the modern New Englander 
dare not say that, when a victim is black: it is only 
the whites who have a right to Bunker Hill names, 'all 
white men.'  'All men are created equal.'  That was 
the first result of the dissolution; what was the second?  
The pulpit and the press would stand erect.  The common 
people were even now on the side of freedom, and 
they would not stand idle by thousands on the sidewalks 
of State street, while the old Indian on our banners went 
floating down over two thousand armed men, carrying
one helpless black man into bondage.  (Applause.)  

He wanted State street and the Old South on our 
side.  He wanted the money power and the religious 
sentiment of New England on the side of freedom.  
Faneuil Hall would always have free speech, no matter 
who indicted it.  (Enthusiastic cheers.)  But free 
speech, after all, was but words; they must break up 
the sources of New England character.  State street 
and the Old South is the complement of Faneuil Hall.  
He wanted a religious sentiment not like that of 
Dr. Gardner Spring of New York, who said he dared not 
pray that God would break the yoke of the slave, for 
fear he would do it, and jeopard the Union.  There was 
a Dr. Gardner Spring of Newburyport, in 1790, who 
use to pray that God would overturn, and overturn, and 
overturn, till He whose right it was should reign.  Give 
us back those clergymen of 1790, said Mr. Phillips, 
though you dash the Union to pieces.  Break this charter, 
in order that the men who tenant the pulpits may 
read the fifty-eighth chapter of Isaish, from beginning 
to end, no matter what happens to the Union.  
Slavery had ruled in the government of this country 
for sixty years.  She had made vassals of all the sources 
of national strength -- she stood at Washington, at this 
hour, more powerful than any single interest in the 
country.  It was useless to attack her with parties or 
enthusiasm; she beat them back as the crags of the 
coast beat back the sea-birds in a storm.  We were to 
set against her the counsels of God, the laws of labor, 
the laws of justice, the laws that God founded when he 
made it expensive to be tyrannical, when he made injustice 
dear, costly, ruinous -- by taking away the shield 
of the North, and letting the slave right himself.  All 
he asked of us was to stand out of the way, withdraw 
[?]
an audience such as is seldom collected even in this city.  
It was the lectare of the course thus far, and can only 
be exceeded by Wendell Phillips himself.  

The Traveller says: --

MR. WENDELL PHILLIPS' SLAVERY ORATION.  This 
gifted and brilliant orator delivered the fourth of the 
course of lectures on Slavery, last night, at the Tremont 
Temple.  It was, as had naturally been expected, 
a remarkable discourse -- a master-piece of oratorical 
skill, of admirable diction, graced with all the beauties 
of the speaker's matchless manner, earnest in its tone, 
strongly stamped with all his characteristic fervency 
upon this subject, and illumined by flashes of the keenest 
and most withering sarcasm.  No one disputes the 
sincerity of Mr. Phillips -- all admire his genius; but 
it is generally accorded, at the same time, that he is, 
to a great extent, emphatically a man of one idea, and 
that one wrought up to a brilliant but unhealthy intensity.  
In his lecture last night, of which an abstract 
will be found in another column, carried away by his 
feelings, he boldly ventured to say things which, from 
a less golden mouth, would have been met from the audience 
that enthusiastically applauded, with hisses, and 
every other sign of indignant reprobation.  Great 
names in our history, justly held in reverence and 
honor, were referred to in terms of disparaging obloquy.  
Some of these personal remarks, which we have 
not undertake to report, were so defamatory as to partake 
of the nature of a libel.  

Amidst the cheers of his audience, he broadly maintained 
that it was better that the Union should be dissolved, 
and the Constitution torn into tatters, than that 
the North should throw its shield over an institution, 
the existence of which he without reservation regards 
as a sin equivalent to murder.  His hits at the attempt 
to repress free speech in Faneuil Hall by indictment, 
appeared particularly acceptable.  No sham or half 
measure found countenance with him or mercy at his 
hands; and whatever may have been thought of some 
portions of his discourse, it is certain that he succeeded 
in securing an electrical influence over the sympathies 
of his vast audience.

The Atlas says:
'The lecture may be considered as a fair presentment 
of the ultra abolition view of the subject of slavery. . . 
Mr. Phillips devoted a large portion of his lecture to 
showing that there was not and never had been a true 
anti-slavery sentiment in the North, and concluded 
with an earnest appeal in behalf of the slave, urging 
Northern men to abstain from protecting Southern oppressors 
against the vengeance of the oppressed. The 
hall was completely filled, and Mr. Phillips' remarks, 
with the exception of his argument in favor of disunion, 
were warmly applauded.'  

The Transcripts says: --
'Mr. Phillips was very eloquent, and gave the ultra-radical 
view of the best means to abolish slavery in our 
country.  Few of those present probably sympathized 
with him in many of his positions, and however much 
they may admire his learning, and listen with admiration 
to his brilliant periods and almost faultless elocution, 
they fail to recognise the expediency of his suggestions, 
and would shrink from giving practical vitality 
to his recommendations.  His eloquence, like the 
logic of John C. Calhoun, fails to find  a popular response, 
and yet he is one of the most engaging of our 
orators, and is personally very popular.'  

PRINTING OFFICES BURNED.  On Friday night, the 
building in School street, Boston, know as the Newspaper 
Exchange, was partially destroyed by fire, which 
commenced in the fourth story, and in which was the 
printing office of Mr. Bemis, who printed the Christian 
Register, New England Farmer, and Massachusetts 
Ploughman. The printing office of the Puritan Recorder 
was in the front part of this story, and was entirely 
destroyed.  In the rear was the printing office of 
John Wilson & Son, which escaped without damage.  
James E. Farwell & Co. also had an office on this floor, 
in which were printed the American Patriot and the 
Ladies' Enterprise, which was likewise entirely destroyed.  

Wm. A, Hall, printer, occupied a portion of the premises, 
as did also Charles H. Simonds, printer, and their 
offices were considerably damaged by water.  

Most of the occupants were insured.  Yet the loss by 
the interruption of business must be very large.  

          PARTICULAR NOTICE.  
THE FINANCIAL COMMITTEE OF THE LIBERATOR, to 
whom its pecuniary interests are entrusted, have 
instructed the GENERAL AGENT to pursue the following 
rule hereafter, without deviation, and without 
respect of persons, as essential to the permanent 
welfare of the paper -- viz: -- On the first day of 
January, 1855, to erase from the subscription book 
the names of all such subscribers as at that time 
stand indebted for more than one year: also, on 
the first of April, 1855, the names of all such as 
are owing for one year's subscription on the first 
of January, unless it be paid before the limitation 
designated: and, finally, to require payment IN 
ADVANCE of al new subscribers.  

It is not doubted by the Committee, that the 
friends of THE LIBERATOR, who are solicitous for its 
preservation and usefulness, will cordially approve 
of the rule here laid down, and be ready to comply 
with it: nor will they take offence if, at any time, 
it shall happen, through forgetfulness or oversight 
on their part to pay their subscriptions, that their 
papers are discontinued -- for they will immediate-

BEAUTIFUL JUVENILES 
For the Coming Holidays 
The Boys and Girls not Forgotten.  

JOHN P. JEWETT & Co.
117 WASHINGTON STREET, BOSTON,
HAVE just published four of the choicest and most 
elegant Books for Children which have been issued 
this year.  They were written for us by a lady 
who stands preeminent as a writer of Juvenile Literature, 
Mrs. PHOEBE HARRIS PHELPS.  

THE SERIES IS ENTITLED 
HOME STORIES,
And consists of the following stories, elegantly illustrated 
from original designs by Billings:
[?]

[*W. B. Stone*]

blacken the character of William Lloyd Garrison and 
his associates. He next reviewed the progress of the 
Slave Power since 1820; exposed the corrupt state of 
American politics at the present time; expressed his 
belief that the political organizations against slavery 
were useless; and that the true motto for abolitionists 
to adopt is that of 'No Union with Slaveholders.' 
He criticised, at great length, the proceedings of the 
deputation of friends to the United States, and declared 
that a large number of American 'Friends' 
were false to the slave. He illustrated the latter 
charge by several facts of which he was personally 
cognisant. Referring to the religious bodies of America, 
he characterised the course pursued by the American 
Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions as 
having been grossly profligate and wicked. He accused 
it of having systematically supported slavery, and of 
having also, by extreme acts, countenanced polygamy 
among the Indians.
  The Rev. CUTHBERT YOUNG interrupted Mr. Pillsbury, 
and charged him with having made misstatements.
  The Rev. S. R. WARD confirmed all that Mr. Pillsbury 
had stated, and said that he had had to do with those 
very questions when Mr. Young was still within the 
walls of his alma mater.
  Dr. CARLISLE begged that Mr. Pillsbury might not 
again be interrupted.
  Mr. PILLSBURY said that he had documentary proofs 
in his pocket for all that he had asserted. He urged 
the importance of religious bodies in the country taking 
right action on the slavery question: stated that the 
rejection of Dr. Prime from the Bible Society was one 
of thee grandest testimonies British Christians had ever 
borne against slavery. After some further remarks, 
Mr. Pillsbury resumed his seat amid loud applause.
  At this stage of the proceedings, Mr. Cropper was 
compelled to retire, and Mr. McLaren was installed in 
the chair. A very long and most important discussion 
respecting the American Board of Commissioners for 
Foreign Missions now ensued.
  The Rev. CUTHBERT YOUNG spoke in behalf of the 
American Board, and declared that its present action 
was of an anti-slavery character. 
  The Rev. JAMES VINCENT, of Cincinnati, Ohio, at 
considerable length analysed 'the Treat letter' which 
Mr. Young had referred to as substantiating his statement, 
and endeavored to show that its pretended anti-slavery 
was a blind and a delusion. Mr. Vincent also 
preferred serious accusations against the official members 
of various British missionary societies, and charged 
the editor of the British Banner with inconsistency in 
having at one time denounced the American Board, and 
with now being its advocate.
  The CHAIRMAN thought the discussions on the subject 
should stop here.
   Mr. SHERMAN considered it of such vital importance 
that he trusted Mr. Vincent would proceed.
  The latter gentleman accordingly described the position 
of the American Tract Society, and also the American 
Sunday-School Union.
  Resolutions in favor of the use of free-labor produce 
over the produce of slave-labor, and of the cultivation of 
cotton in the East Indies, and other parts of the world, 
were proposed by Mr. ELIHU BURRITT, seconded by Mr. 
GEORGE THOMPSON, and carried unanimously.
  Rev. S. R. WARD proposed, and Major-General THOMPSON 
seconded, a resolution, expressing sympathy with 
the fugitive slaves of Canada, and referring with satisfaction 
to their progressive condition.
  Mr. ALDERMAN PARK, of Southampton, proposed, and 
Mr. JOHN ELLIS (late member for Leicester) seconded, 
a resolution protesting against the treatment of British 
colored seamen who visit the slave States of America. 
These resolutions, together with one proposed by Mr. 
STURGE, which memorialized the Sultan for thee abolition 
of slavery in Turkey, were carried unanimously.
  Mr. PARKER PILLSBURY rose again at this stage of the 
meeting, and said that, availing himself of the precedent 
[a?]fforded him by Mr. Sturge, he would propose a resolution 
[?]sly acknowledging the services of the American 
[?]ty.  This proposal Mr. Pillsbury

remorselessly sacrificed, when they were the rights of 
the colored man only, have been fully avenged upon us, 
and this question of slavery has become the question of 
the age here. It is no question of the South; it is no
question of the blacks; it is the question of free speech 
in Massachusetts and in Faneuil Hall. (Applause.) 
We mean to vindicate that right by all the laws that are 
left us; and when there are no laws left us, we will go 
to that higher law that can never be repealed. (Applause.) 
It is a question of the whites; whether this 
great experiment of popular government is to be successful; 
whether our institutions, as our fathers gave 
them to us, are to be handed down to our children.
  They knew well what the system of slavery was at 
the South; a system that makes a man a thing--that 
robs him of his wages--that robs him of his wife and 
his children--that practically robs him of the Gospel--
that robs him of every thing that makes a distinction 
between a man and a brute. What was it that defended 
that system? --a system that sells women and children 
at the auction-block, that forbids the Bible by 
statute, that turns three million of human beings into 
promiscuous concubinage, without marriage, in a Christian 
and republican country, as it loved to call itself? 
It was the Slave Power and that comprised several elements. 
  The first element was money--that was the first item 
of its strength. Two thousands millions of dollars were 
to-day invested in property in men and women, recognized 
by the laws of one half the States of this Union. 
The product was cotton mainly, and other items that 
lie at the base of our commerce, and this swept into 
the train of the Slave Power the mercantile interests, 
the merchants. The very function of America was to 
make money. It was our 'manifest destiny,' more 
than the acquisition of territory. Dr. Johnson had described 
us, when, talking to the Scotch, he said, if 
you put a dollar on the other side of hell, the Scotchman 
will leap for it, at the hazard of falling in. 
(Laughter.) The anti-slavery organization had to fight 
two thousand millions of dollars, in the hands of 350,000 
sagacious and desperate men, educated to statesmanship, 
constantly on the alert, vigilant, because they 
were aware that the spirit of the 19th century was undermining 
their title, that literature and religion and 
the pulses of the world were beating down their claim. 
   What next? The politicians of the North, eager for 
office, were crowding the national arena, their faces turned 
towards Washington, the baubles of office clinking 
in their ears, national success confusing their vision, 
the money power of the nation affording to buy them 
up faster than nature can produce them for us. They 
go down to grind in the mill of the Philistines, and 
never turn their gaze afterwards to the North Star. 
(Applause.) It was not their fault; it was the fault 
of circumstances. 
   What next? We had the people--the democracy, in 
the broad sense of that word--the popular element, 
that ought to listen to the pulses of human sympathy; 
but it was chilled by 'patriotism,' which always cried 
out for the Union, for the country, right or wrong; 
that mysterious element, which always forgot the means 
in the end, if that end be the success of the land we 
love.
   What next? There was one refuge left--the pulpit. 
But it was reduced to vassalage; for the pulpit of the 
North and the pulpit of the South alike, judged by the 
great sects, by the leading influences, by the men who 
overtop their fellows, by the cushioned pulpits of the 
city, by the churches that make the fashion of their various
denominations--these, they would acknowledge,
were indifferent, silent or pro-slavery.
   These formed the solid square in the Waterloo battle,
which never changed its place.  This is not the first
anti-slavery crusade which had been started; they had 
been tried every ten or twenty years, and failed, because 
we did not see the root of the difficulty with 
which we were contending.
   This power might have its roots in South Carolina,
but it had its upas branches in Milk street, and its poison
was distilled over the whole North.  It spoke to 
him in Milk street, when Simms was in a slave pen in
the Court House, when a wealthy merchant said to



He was a great man.  There was but one blot upon his
fame--and that they would be almost willing, treading 
reverently backward, to cover with the mantle of their 
charity, when the slave was freed, and they could afford 
to. Washington, a Virginia slaveholder, educated 
in the midst of slavery, wrote that letter to the Collector 
of Portsmouth, with which they were all familiar, 
requesting him to return a fugitive slave who had escaped 
from Mt. Vernon, if it would not offend the prejudices 
of the people of New Hampshire; for he would 
not agitate the community by a claim which would offend 
their consciences. That was the product of colonial 
institutions. But, at the very time that Washington 
wrote that letter, there was running about on a New 
Hampshire farm, a bare-footed boy, whom God gifted 
with the noblest intellect, perhaps, of his age. He 
grew up to manhood. All that the pulpit, all that the 
school could do for him, was done. He walked in the 
highest walks of American responsibility. When he 
was seventy years old--and eloquent lips had told them 
elsewhere that he was the 'primest fruit of American 
institutions'--he could stand upon the steps of a house 
in Boston, and command us to smother those very prejudices 
which the great Virginia slaveholder himself 
respected sixty years ago! What had changed us from 
1790 to 1850? Our institutions--nothing else. We 
had fallen from the magnanimity of that virtue which 
could grow even in the soil of slavery, down to this 
Boston recommendation of a New England statesmen! 
  The life of Edward Everett was then reviewed, and 
he was shown to have always bowed in willing and servile 
subserviency to the Slave Power;--but, nevertheless, 
the people had again and again elevated him to 
office, and lavished upon him the highest honors. You 
blame Edward Everett, said Mr. Phillips, but I do not. 
He is but the child of the schools you have kept. 
When did the public sentiment ever say, This is not 
Massachusetts which you represent? When was the 
right hand not streched out to welcome him home? 
Never. We are what our institutions make us. If the 
Constitutions is as good as it can be,--and there is no 
party but says that it is,--the Whigs say, Great is the 
Union; the Democrats say, Great, great is the Union;
and the Free Soilers chime in, Great, great,GREAT is 
the Union, (laughter,)--if the great men who launched 
our ship of State were worthy of their fame, how, in 
the name of all that was logical, did they expect to 
create a different public sentiment in the sixty years to 
come? With good laws and with good men at first, how 
happens it that we have such miserable apologies for 
men as results?--Courts that cannot be obeyed, and 
Governors that cannot be found when wanted? (Applause.)
   The Slave Power has been successful in all its demands, 
save one. It wanted the Fugitive Slave Law of 
'93, and got it; it wanted the Compromise measures of 1850 
and a new Fugitive Slave Law, and got them; it demanded 
the abolition of the Missouri Compromise, and 
it succeeded.  It stands triumphant to-day in every 
effort but one--it could not put down free speech in 
Congress. it has succeeded, because we at the North 
cannot keep the enthusiasm of the people at a white 
heat, while the Slave Power is patient, persistent, 
watchful, bides its time, and thus always triumphs.
  He then spoke of the influence which the Slave Power 
exercised over the Northern members of Congress, who 
do not possess sufficient firmness of character to resist 
the temptations held out. The people blamed Everett 
and Webster, but he blamed the people for sending 
them to that maelstrom whose fatal attraction so few 
could withstand.
   Mr. Phillips then briefly alluded to the position of the 
pulpit, saying it was controlled by the money power 
in the pews, and, of course, it reflected that power. 
Our voluntary churches were never intended to rebuke 
a great popular sin. They represented, as all pulpits

     *We notice that a daily contemporary, in its report 
of Mr. Phillips' address, renders this striking passage 
thus:--' Did it take up Massachusetts by the four corners, 
and shake out the courtesies and the laurels of 
the men he had referred to.' (!!) the genius of Whitefoord 
never invented a 'cross-reading' more ludicrous 
than this.




overturn, [?] He whose right it was should reign. Give
us back these clergymen of 1790, said Mr. Phillips, 
though you dash the Union to pieces. Break this charter, 
in order that the men who tenant the pulpits may 
read the fifty-eighth chapter of Isaiah, from beginning 
to end, no matter what happens to the Union. 
Slavery had ruled in the government of this country 
for sixty years. She had made vassals of all the sources 
of national strength--she stood at Washington, at this 
hour, more powerful than any single interest in the 
country. It was useless to attack her with parties or 
enthusiasm; she beat them back as the crags of the 
coast beat back the sea-birds in a storm. We were to 
set against her the counsels of God, the laws of labor, 
the laws of justice, the laws that God founded when he 
made it expensive to be tyrannical, when he made injustice 
dear, costly, ruinous--by taking away the shield 
of the North, and letting the slave right himself. All 
he asked of us was to stand out of the way, withdraw 
our pledge from his master to keep peace on the plantation, 
withdraw our pledge to return him into bondage, 
withdraw that aristocratic privilege of the Constitution 
which gives the slave-owner a representation in proportion 
to the number of slaves which he holds; and 
then, without any help from the city of Boston, without 
any agitation here, without any individual virtue which 
the times have eaten out of us, God would vindicate the 
oppressed by the laws of justice which he has founded. 
Trample under foot, said the speaker, our own unjust 
pledges; break to pieces our compact with hell by which 
we became the abettors of oppression; stand alone; let 
no cement to the Union be the blood of the slave; and 
the slave will right himself. He commended to their 
justice and their magnanimity--he commended to their 
consciences--this consideration; and he asked them, 
in the name of three millions, who had no hope except 
in laws higher and stronger than we are, that we would 
put aside our prejudices against words, and go for the 
breaking up of institutions which had gone far to shipwreck 
the experiment of self-government here. (Loud 
applause.)
  The announcement that the next lecture would be 
delivered by CASSIUS M. CLAY, of Kentucky, was received 
with marked approbation.
                                                                      --------------      
  The Boston papers, (says the Worcester Spy,) 
with one accord, speak of the lecture of Wendell Phillips 
last Thursday evening, as a magnificent and masterly 
effort, and of surpassing eloquence. The impression 
it produced upon the immense audience which 
thronged to hear it, may be judged by the following article 
from the Boston Courier, the most thoroughly servile 
and hunkerish pro-slavery paper in Boston:
THE ANTI-SLAVERY LECTURES.  The Tremont Temple,
usually so full during this course, was crowded to its
utmost capacity on Thursday night.  Wendell Phillips
was the orator of the evening.  His subject was the
character and extent of the anti-slavery feeling in New
England, and never were the splendid abilities of
this most accomplished and able fanatic more amply
displayed than on this occasion.  Sentiments the most
repugnant to the feelings of every patriot, and to those
of nine-tenths of even the Abolitionists themselves,
were absolutely applauded when clothed in the graceful
and magnificent diction of the anti-slavery Cicero.  No
pen can describe the gross injustice of the matter, or the
exquisite felicity of the manner with and in which the
characters of Webster, Everett, Judge Curtis, and Mr.
Commissioner Loring were held up to the hatred and 
contempt of the vast audience.  Topics of the most odious
character--topics which an ordinary man would have 
been hissed and pelted for alluding to, --topics, such as 
the dissolution of the Union and the destruction of the 
Constitution--were dwelt upon with such unparalleled 
force and beauty, that disapprobation of the subject was 
lost and overwhelmed in admiration of the man.  When 
he said that 'he would he had a tumbler of water to 
rinse his mouth,' after mentioning the names of Judge 
Curtis and Mr. Commisssioner Loring--when he intimated 
that Massachusetts should have treated Mr. Everett 
as Kentucky treated Matt. Ward,--when he spoke of a 
'Yankee with moderate abilities which nature had 
doubled by omitting to put a conscience into him,' and 
said that he need not mention the name of Caleb Cushing,
--when he compared Dr. Gardner Spring of 1850, 
with Dr. Gardner Spring of 1790, and wished the latter 
back if the Union were destroyed in getting him,--the 
vast hall rang again and again to rounds of enthusiastic
 applause.  Truly there has been a great change since 
1850, but great as it is, it is insufficient to explain the
favor with which this Abolition orator was received by



respect of persons, as [?] to the permanent
welfare of the paper--viz:--On the first day of
january, 1855, to erase from the subscription book
the names of all such subscribers as at that time
satnad indebted for more than one year:  also, on
the first of April, 1855 the names of all such as
are owing for one year's subscription on the first
of January, unless it be paid before the limitation
designated; and, finally, to require payment IN
ADVANCE of all new subscribers.
  It is not doubted by the Committee, that the
friends of THE LIBERATOR, who are solicitous for its
perservation and usefulness, will cordially approve
of the rule here laid down, and be ready to comply
with it; nor will they take offence if, at any time,
it shall happen, through forgetfulness or oversight
on their part to pay their subscriptions, that their
papers are discontinued--for they will immediately
remit what is due, being unwilling on any account
to give up a paper which they have so long
sustained, and which they prize so highly.  This
rule, being strictly and impartially observed, will,
it is believed, prevent those losses which have occurred,
through an inexcusable indulgence to delinquent
subscribers, year after year, and which
amount in the aggregate to a very large sum;
while it is hoped it will not materially affect the
number of the patrons of the paper.
By direction of the Financial Committee,

General Agent.

THE COMMON COUNCIL.
No Definite Action Reached on the Salary 
Bill-- Proposed Restoration of the Old 
State House, and a Committee of Conference--
Public Parks in Various Parts of 
the City--Salaries of the East Boston Ferries' 
Employees--Health of the City.
At the regular meeting of the common council, 
last evening, the report of the committee on salaries, 
to whom was recommitted the report and 
orders establishing the salaries, that the salary of 
the city treasurer be at the rate of $8,000 per annum, 
with a further sum of 1,000 as treasurer of 
the sinking funds, and that he be also allowed 
not exceeding $17,400 to be paid to his regular 
clerks, came up from the board of aldermen, with 
an amendment to the order, fixing the salary of 
the city treasurer at $6500. Mr. Parkman of 
Ward 9 moved that the matter be laid on the 
table, so that no action shall be taken until the 
entire salary bill is presented for consideration. 
This motion was subsequently withdrawn, and 
then Mr. Whitmore of Ward 12 said that he 
wished to settle the salary bill as a whole, and not 
attempt to raise the salaries of a few persons at 
the expense of the mass of city officials; 
he therefore moved to substitute 
for the report of the committee on 
salaries the schedule or salaries that was 
adopted last year. After a running discussion, 
the motion to substitute prevailed by a vote of 31 
to 25. The council then took up the several orders 
establishing the salaries of individual officers, 
but, after fixing the salary of the mayor, 
further consideration of the subject was assigned 
to the next meeting.
The three orders passed by the common council 
at its last meeting--to restore the outer walls, 
etc., of the Old State House, to lease the rooms 
on its first floor and its basement, and in respect 
to a plan for maintaining the rooms of its second 
floor as memorial halls--came down severally nonconcurred, 
the board of aldermen adhering to its 
former vote. On motion of Mr. Whitmore, the 
council non-concurred and adhered to its former 
action, and as a result the following were appointed 
a committee of conference on the part 
of the common council: Messrs. Whitmore of 
Ward 12, Wakefield of Ward 23, Connell of Ward 
20, Parkman of Ward 9 and Hart of Ward 18. 
The following were joined to the committee to 
examine the bonds of the city officers: Messrs. 
Hart of Ward 18, Beal of Ward 17 and Dana of 
Ward 14. The report, leave to withdraw, on the 
petition of Darling and Stebbins and others, for 
an investigation into the recent fuel contracts, 
was taken up by assignment, and after a few remarks 
by Messrs. Lovell and Wheeler, 
the report was accepted. The motion 
to substitute the minority report of the 
committee on East Boston ferries in favor of paying
employes of the ferries at the rates paid prior 
to the reduction in 1877, for the majority report 
against such payment, was taken up by special 
assignment and advocated by Messrs. Morrison 
and Gove of Ward 1 and Quigley of Ward 2, while 
it was opposed by Mr. Parkman of Ward 9. The 
minority report was adopted by a vote of 36 to 15, 
and the order contained therein was passed. A 
ballot for superintendent of printing resulted in 
the choice of George Coolidge. The inspector of 
buildings submitted a statement, in effect, that 
the laws in relation to elevators in buildings are 
being enforced, but they are so defective that additional
legislation is demanded.
The committee on public parks reported that 
they had fully considered all the petitions, reports, 
and other matters relating to the establishment 
of parks in Boston, and had examined the 
several places alluded to. As to the financial 
ability of the city to provide parks, the committee 
say it is estimated that the rate of assessment 
will be reduced from $15.20 last year to a sum less
than $14.20 this year. The sales of real estate 
during the present season, instead of showing 
that the assessors' valuation, was "very largely in 
excess of its true value," have indicated a current 
market value of from 10 to 30 per cent more than 
the assessed valuation. Instead of finding "our 
debt above the legal limit," we find a present 
limit of indebtedness increased from $960,000 last 
year to $2,100,000 this year; and as we have 
provided for no other loans, and have 
no debt coming due, we can safely calculate 
that before the end of this municipal year 
our margin for indebtedness will be more than 
$3,000,000. The circumstances have, therefore, all 
changed, and the committee believe that the time 
was never more propitious for action upon this 
important subject. They recommend that an end 
be put to sectional contentions respecting park 
lands, and, that while due attention is given to 
the particulay needs of each locality, more particular 
consideration be given to the general welfare 
of the whole city. To this end they recommend 
the taking of smaller areas in those parts 
of the city not yet provided for, and the taking of 
one large tract for a park proper for the whole 
city. The committee submitted communications 
from the park commissioners and Frederick Law 
Olmstead, in effect that a reduction of the area 
heretofore proposed for a park in West Roxbury 
can be made so as to lessen the cost of the land 
about $200,000. The committee allude to the 
several park plans and the advantages which 
will accrue to the city, and, in conclusion, they 
recommend the passage of the following order:-- 
   Ordered, That the city treasurer be, and he is 
hereby authorized to borrow, under the direction 
of the committee on finance, for the purchase or 
taking of lands for public parks, the sum of 
$1,500,000; the bonds or certificates of debt to be 
issued in negotiating this loan, to be denominated 
on the face thereof, "The public park loan," and 
to bear such rate of interest, and to be payable 
at such periods, as the committee on 
finance shall determine; and the park commissioners 
are hereby authorized to expend said 
sum for the taking in fee by purchase or otherwise, 
for the purposes of public parks, the following 
lands, to wit: Lands to the amount of $600,000, 
in assessed yaluation, within the limits of the 
proposed West Roxbury park; lands to the 
amount of $100,000, in assessed value, for a marine 
park at City Point; lands to the amount of 
$200,000, in assessed valuation, for the Muddy river 
improvement, whenever the town of Brookline 
shall cooperate and appropriate a proportionate 
sum for said improvement; lands for the amount of 
$300,000 in assessed valuation, for the Charles-river 
embankment, between Craigie's and West 
Boston bridges; lands to the amount of $200,000 
in assessed valuation for the Brighton park; lands 
to the amount of $50,000 in assessed valuation for 
a public park in East Boston, in such available location 
as said commissioners deem expedient: 
lands to the amount of $50,000 in assessed valuation 
adjacent to the Arnold arboretum; and the 
said several sums are hereby approporiated for 
said purposed respectively.
Mr Freeman submitted a minority report recommending 
a loan of $500,000 to be divided as follows: 
For the marine park at South Boston, 
$150,000; the Charles-river embankment, $300,000; 
the Arnold arboretum, $50,000. The reports were 
assigned to the next meeting of the council.
   The annual report of the board of health was 
submitted and sent up. It states that the number 
of death certificates during the year ending December 
31, 1880, exclusive of still-births, was 8531. 
The number of still-births for the same period 
was 443. The annual death rate was 23.53 per 
thousand. Of 1715 cases of diphtheria, 588 were 
fatal, giving a mortality of about 34 per cent, and 
of the houses in which it occurred 78 per cent 
were found to be in a defective sanitary condition. 
As to small-pox the board does not anticipate 
a recurrence of the epidemic of 1872, but it 
advises vaccination. The sewerage for the Charles 
and Mystic-river valleys is alluded to, and some 
action is recommended toward purification. 
During the year 9046 nuisances were abated, and 
21,355 places were cleaned and disinfected. Prosecutions 
for violations of the health regulations 
numbered eleven, the total cost and fines amounting 
to $119.50. The board says that the inspection 
of provisions, as at present conducted in this city,

   In the race for silver goblets, for pairs, the first 
heat was easily won by the London club crew 
pair, defeating a French pair. The Hertford College 
crew pair, who had the Bucks station, were 
out of the race before Poplar Point was reached.
   In the first heat of the race for the Visitors' 
challenge cup the first Trinity College crew of 
Cambridge defeated the third Trinity College 
crew of Cambridge. Time, 8 minutes, 59 seconds, 
   The Standard's Henley correspondent says:
The Cornell crew fouled with the London crew 
after the first start was effected. Although 
beaten, the Cornell crew have the satisfaction of 
knowing that they were beaten by good crews. 
The Hertford College crew was scratched for the 
visitor's cup.

ABDUL AZIZ'S ASSASSINS.
    CONSTANTINOPLE, June 30, 1881.---The president 
of the court, in pronouncing sentence on the persons 
convicted of the murder of Abdul Aziz, and 
others implicated, said there was only a majority 
of the judges in favor of capital punishment for 
the pashas, but they were unanimous in regard to 
the other prisoners. All of the condemned have 
given notice of an appeal. 
      Immediately before the trial of the accused began 
the President of the court had a long private 
audience with the Sultan, and received certain instructions 
as to how the proceedings should be 
conducted. The correspondent points to this as 
confirming the impression that it was absurd to 
expect impartiality and independence in the 
judges. Midhat Pasha conducted his defence 
with much spirit, and evidently had the sympathy 
of some of the audience. He asked that the 
embassy doctors who examined the corpse of the 
Sultan should be called as witnesses, so that their 
reports might be contrasted with those of the 
palace physicians. The court refused the request. 
In reply to Midhat Pasha's request to be allowed 
to cross-examine witnesses, the court intimated 
that if any witness committed perjury it rested 
with the court to punish him hereafter. Midhat 
Pasha replied that it would be little practical advantage 
to him when in his grave.

BRITISH PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS.
   London, June 30, 1881.--In the house of commons 
today it was announced that the government 
had no information relative to the mission 
which it is reported that a private secretary of 
President Garfield was sent upon, with reference 
to the collection by the American consuls in Ireland 
of information respecting the Irish-American 
element in that country.
     In the house of lords Earl Granville, foreign 
secretary, said of course if President Garfield had 
sent a secret mission to England he (the secretary)
was not bound to know it, but he might say 
he had very good reasons to believe that the report 
was totally unfounded.

FRANCE AND TRIPOLI.
 PARIS, June 30, 1881--A despatch from Tunis to 
Temps says that a French frigate is transporting 
Tunisian troops from Cabes to Zarziss, 
for the purpose of restoring order among tribes 
and watching the Tripoli frontier.
     La France states that there is an idea of a 
French naval demonstration in the waters of 
Tripoli.
    CONSTANTINOPLE, June 30, 1881--Four regiments 
are under orders for Tripoli. A quantity 
of war material is being sent to arm the native 
police.

APPEAL TO IRISH ELECTORS.
    LONDON, June 30, 1881.---Messrs. Parnell, T. P. 
O'Connor and McCarthy have issued an appeal 
to the Irish electors of Great Britain, stating that 
there is scarcely a town in which Irish exiles may 
not do something to advance the Irish cause. The 
action of the ministry and of the liberal members 
of Parliament makes the organization of the Irish 
voters more necessary than ever. Several liberals 
who are the most ardent in the cause of coercion 
would not be in Parliament but for the Irish 
electors, and the latter may have, any day, an opportunity 
of repaying the treacherous ingratitude 
of several of the liberals as it deserves, and this 
can only be done by thorough organization of 
Irish voters.

AFFAIRS IN PERU.
  NEW YORK, June 30, 1881.--Lima dates of the 
8th inst. state that the United States legation has 
been instructed from Washington to recognize 
the government of Calderon should such step seem 
advisable, and in consonance with the traditions 
of American polity. The recognition by the United 
States will doubtless be followed by other nations, 
and aid Peru in her efforts to promote peace in its 
borders. The expedition sent by Calderon to 
Huaraz was successful. Senor Joaquin Godoi, 
formerly Chilian minister to Ecuador, has arrived 
in Lima, to adjust a peace with Peru, if anybody 
is found with sufficient energy and courage to undertake 
so difficult a task. 

IRISH EVICTIONS.
LONDON, June 30, 1881.--A flying column consisting 
of infantry, cavalry and police, assisted 
the sheriff in enforcing evictions at Mitchellstown, 
Cork county, today. The persons against 
whom writs had been issued paid the rent in every 
case, thus preventing their eviction. Trees were 
placed across several roads in order to delay the 
progress of the column, which, as it entered the 
town, found a number of carts thrown across the 
streets. The military and police charged the 
crowd until the streets were deserted. It is 
stated that thirty persons were injured.

SWISS VILLAGE DESTROYED BY FIRE.
LONDON, July 1, 1881.--A despatch to the News 
from Geneva says; Aarburg, a large village of 
the canton of Berne, has been destroyed by fire. 
Several of the inhabitants are reported killed.

RIVAL ROADS IN COURT.
SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO, June 27, 1881--The 
case of the Texas Pacific vs The Southern Pacific 
is still going on. Ex-Secretary of the Interior J 
P Usher and ex-Attorney-General L A Williams 
of Kansas have arrived, and are counsel for the 
Texas Pacific. The Southern Pacific have closed 
their case, making a tender of $6000 in gold for 
the right of way, should the Texas Pacific be entitled 
thereto, which is denied. The defendants 
deny that the plaintiffs have an exclusive land 
grant; state that the plaintiffs have not complied 
with the conditions, and that the plaintiffs stood 
by and allowed the road to be built without molestatioh. 
The plaintiffs have made an offer to 
pay to defendants the value of the road as determined 
by the court, and offered to put up $1,000,000 
cash and deposit the sum with the court as a 
guarantee of good faith. Judge Bristol continued 
the case till 10:00 A.M. tomorrow, when the plaintiffs 
will produce counter-affidavits to answer the defendant.

Coleman's mustard works was burned yesterday,

that the end is as far off and uncertain as it well 
could be. 
       ( TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.)
 The joint convention met at noon, Lieutenant-Governor 
Hoskins presiding, and proceeded to 
vote to fill the short term vacancy in the senate 
with the following result:--
Potter........53                       Lapham.............17
Conkling....32                      Folger..................1
Wheeler.....42                      Rogers................4
Cornell........2                       Hoskins..............1
   No choice. The convention then proceeded to 
vote on the long term vacancy:--
Depew...........51                  Wheeler............1
Kernan...........53                  Crowley............7
Platt.................28                 Tremaine.........1
Cornell............11                 Lapham............2
   No choice. When Mr. Crapser's name was 
called, he rose and said he was informed this 
morning that Thomas C. Platt was no longer a 
standing candidate. [Laughter] He would, therefore, 
vote for Chauncey M. Depew. ( Mr. Crapser 
has always, of late, voted for Mr. Depew.) The 
convention then adjourned.
     The grand jury brought in an indictment against 
A. D. Barber this morning, charging him with 
paying E. R. Phelps $12,500 for the purpose of 
bribing state officers. He was admitted to bail in 
$3000, after pleading not guilty. E. R. Phelps 
was also arraigned on a similar charge, and also 
admitted to bail in the same amount. He also 
pleaded not guilty. Charles A. Edwards was also 
indicted for receiving from Joseph Dickson $5000 
for bribing state officers. J. Thomas Spriggs of 
Utica appeared as counsel for all. The cases are 
held over till the next term of the court. 
     The half-breeds" are signing quite freely the
call for a caucus started by the "featherheads," 
and it is said there are now nearly fifty signatures. 
It needs sixty-five. The stalwarts, it is 
said, will have no part in the call. The terms of 
the call are that it shall require fifty-four votes to 
nominate. There is no talk about adjournment 
tonight; all seem determined to remain another 
week. No election is looked for within that time. 
The bribery investigating committee have taken 
no action yet on their report. There seems to be 
a disposition to let the matter rest, inasmuch as 
it is now in the courts. The parties indicated today 
evince no trepidation outwardly. They say 
they have done nothing whatever in violation of 
the law. 

WASHINGTON TOPICS.
Reported Appointment of Ex-Mayor Bowen
as a Commissioner of the District-Auditor
French and His Letter to the President
of the Central Pacific Railroad Company
—Late Financial Intelligence.
SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE BOSTON DAILY ADVERTISER.
WASHINGTON, June 30, 1831.—There is a report
about tonight that Sayles J. Bowen has been appointed
a commissioner of the district. It is not
credited by the better class citizens. Bowen
has for years represented the worse element in
the republican party of the district. His administration
as mayor was so loose that a large body
of republican voters, who were citizens in various
Staes, gave up their residence and became citizens
here for the purpose of aiding in reclaiming
the city form the ignorant and unscrupulous
rings which were formed under his administration.
Since his defeat about twenty years ago,
he has been a persistent seeker for federal office.
His chief stock in trade has been his one vote as
a delegate in national conventions. If he is appointed
it will be the severest blow which the
national capital has received since Bowen's first
election. There will be general regret among all
those citizens who have the best interests
of Washington at heart, and who are proud of
its rapid development.
Mr. French, Auditor of Railroad Accounts
affects a wonderful degree of innocence in regard
to his remarkable letter to the President of
the Central Pacific Railroad Company. Mr.
French seems to look upon his effort quite in the 
light of friendly, social correspondence, although
it was dated with official form at the Interior Department
and signed officially by French. The
degree of innocence assumed is of itself quite
sufficient, under the circumstances, to call loudly
for his removal, before the interests of the government
are further imperilled by the frank and 
unsuspecting man.
   The receipts of internal revenue for the fiscal
year closing today prove to be within $100,000 of
the estimate made by General Raum at the opening
of the year. His figures were $135,000,000.
   On the recommendation of Commissioner Dudley,
Major O. P. G. Clarke of Rhode Island, was
today appointed first deputy commissioner of
pensions.

GENERAL PRESS DESPATCHES.
   The President, today, appointed R. S. Foster to
be United States marshal for the district of Indiana,
vice William W. Dudley, appointed commissioner
of pensions, and Robert C. Holley of
Vermont to be United States consul at Batbadoes,
vice Woodbury H. Polleys, suspended.
AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
   The French-American claims commission, having
sustained the demurrer of counsel of the 
United States in the case of Joseph Napoleon
Perché, bishop of New Orleans, vs, the United 
States, on the ground that the claimant, though a
citizen of France at the time the losses alleged
were sustained, had subsequently become a naturalized
citizen of the United States, and prior to
the filing of his claim under the treaty constituting
the commission, claimants must be citizens of
France to recover against the United States, and
vice versa. The Hon. George S. Boutwell, counsel
for the United States, at the reassembling of the
commission, today, asked to have the demurrers
sustained in all cases of similar character, and
that the memorialists be severally barred from
having or maintaining their respective memorials
against the United States. Counsel for France
interposed no objection, and the following, which
are the cases thus affected, will be taken form
the docket without further argument: Manuel
Perraudat, Jean Pierre, Henry Lagasse, Leophele
Dalier, Jaques Bonnemaison, J. D. Mittebroun,
Paul Alphonse Thierry, Louis Francis, E. Bouchez,
Charles Watrigan[?], Ferdinand Comenge,
Joshua Dreyfus, Joseph Kreger, Paul Franceoni,
Christophe Leichir, Achille de Caradeuc, Prosper
Grand, Flornuent Izard, John Langles, Alonzo
Lucien Bryer, — Schlieder, Pierre Bounie,
Pierre Brunet, Louis Delmas, Joseph Bloch, Joseph
Sullice, Dominique Bertin. The aggregate
amount claimed in the above cases is $625,000.

FINANCIAL MATTERS.
   At the lose of business, today, there had been
$98,000,000 in coupon 5 per cent bonds received for
continuance at 3 1/2 per cent, including those
which have been presented at the London agency
to date. Notices have reached the department
from a number of holders indicating their intention
to forward, today, bonds for the continuance.
After these bonds arrive, it is estimated by Treasury
officers there will remain but $15,000,000 to be
redeemed.
   From present indications the public debt statement,
which will be issued tomorrow, will show a
reduction in the debt of about $11,000,000.
   Checks were mailed by Treasurer Gilfillan, today, 
to 353 holders of 6 per cent bonds which were
not presented for continuance at 3 1/2 per cent,
and consequently mature tomorrow. The amount
covered by these checks is about $1,596,000. There
are about $15,000,000 more of this class of bonds
to be redemmed.
   The receipts from internal revenue for the
fiscal year, exclusive of today's, amount to $134,974,166 09.
The receipts from customs for the
same period, as near as can be calculated today,
amount to $197,500,000. The following are the 
payments by warrant during the fiscal year, each

Among them were Oliver Wendell Holmes, George
William Curtis, President Gilman of Johns Hopkins
University, the Rev. James Freeman Clarke,
the Rev. Phillips Brooks, Richard Grant White,
the Rev. Edward Everett Hale, President Eliot of
Harvard and a number of other gentlemen well
know in literary and professional life.
Music was furnished by the Germania
orchestra, and a prayer was offered by
Dr. Peabody, after which President
Choate made a short introductory speech, in
which he reviewed in a general and very pleasant
way the history of the society. He alluded to the
fact that its origin was enveloped in mystery,
but described its growth so far as it could be
traced, going back to the society formed in the 
College of William and Mary in Virginia.  Just
fifty years ago, he said, Henry W. Longfellow delivered
his first Phi Beta Kappa oration; now
there were seventeen other chapters of the society,
The speaker then introduced Wendell Phillips
as a graduate of 1831, who was celebrating
not only the hundredth anniversary of the society's
birth, but also his own semi-centennial. Mr.
Phillips was warmly received; he was in good
voice, and made his many points with effect. He
was closely listened to be all, and was occasionally
interrupted by hearty applause. Following
the oration music was furnished by the orchestra,
and Charles Godfrey Leland of Philadelphia
("Hans Breitmann") read an elaborate poem,
which was well received, the various point being
aptly set forth and apparently fully appreciated.
 At the conclusion of the exercises in the 
theatre the line was formed, and the society with
its guests marched to the upper Massachusetts
hail, where the annual dinner was served.   The
attendance was larger than for many years past.
President Choate was master of ceremonies, and he opened the exercises by a
short speech in the inimitalbe way of peculiar to himself. The feature of the
dinner was the reading of Dr. Holme's poem written for the occasion. The poem was elaborate and witty, deducing from the possession of the name Wendell by Mr. Phillips and himself a common ancestry in the remote past, and paying a glowing tribute to the orator and poet of the day. After
the poem there were speeches by President Eliot, Wendell Phillips, Mr. Leland, Professor Hedge, Dr. Hale, Judge Field, Judge Chamgerlain. President Gilman, Dr. Peabody, Professor Lincoln of Brown, (who responded for the guests), and a number of others. 

WENDELL PHILLIPS'S ORATION.
The True Value of American Education 
and the Duty of Educated Men-The 
Right and Power of the People of Rule--
Universal Suffrage and Current Agitations.
Mr. President and Brothers of the P.B.K.:--
   A hundred years ago our society was planted-a
slip from the older root--in Virginia. The parent 
seed, tradition says, was French; part of that
conspiracy for free speech, whose leaders prated 
democracy in the salons, while they carefully
held on to the flesh-pots of society, by crouching
low to kings and their mistresses, and whose final 
object of assault was Christianity itself. Voltaire
gave the watchword:--
                  "Crush the wretch."
                  " Eerasez I'infame. "
   No matter how much or how little truth there
may be in the tradition; no matter what was the
origin, or what the object of our society, if it had 
any special one,both are long since forgotten.
We stand now simply a representative of free,
brave, American scholarship. I emphasize American 
scholarship.
    In one of those glowing, and as yet unequaled,
pictures which Everett drew for us, here and elsewhere, 
of Revolutionary scenes, I remember his
saying that the independence we then won, if
taken in its liberal and narrow sense, was of no
interest and little value; but construed in the
fulness of its real meaning, it bound us to a distinctive
American character and purpose,--to a
keen sense of large responsibility and to a generous
self-devotion. It is under the shadow of
such unquestioned authority that I use the term,
American scholarship.
     Our society was, no doubt, to some extent, a
protest against the sombre theology of New England,
where, a hundred years ago, the atmosphere 
was black with sermons, and where religious
speculation beat uselessly against the narrowest
limits.
     The first generation of Puritans--though Lowell
does let Cromwell call them " a small colony of 
pinched fanatics" --included some men, indeed,
not a few, worthy to walk close to Roger Williams
and Sir Harry Vane, the two men deepest in 
thought, and bravest in speech, of all who spoke
English in their day, and equal to any in practical
statesmanship.
     Sir Harry Vane---in my judgement, the noblest
human being who every walked the streets of yonder 
city--I do not forget Franklin or Sam Adams, 
Washington or Lafayette, Garrison of John
Brown. But Vane awells an arrow's flight above
them all; and his touch consecrated the continent
to measureless toleration of opinion and entire 
equality of rights. We are told we can find in Plato
"all the intellectual life of Europe for two thousand
years" --so you can find in Vane the pure 
gold of two hundred and fifty years of American
civilization with no particle of its dross. Plato
would have welcomed him to the Academy,
and Fenelon kneeled with him at the altar.
He made Somers and John Marshall possible:
like Carnot he organized victory; and Milton 
pales before him in the stainlessness
of his record. He stands among
English statesmen, in practice and in theory, 
preeminentry the representative of serene faith in
the safety of trusting truth wholly to her own defence.
     For other men we walk backward and throw 
over their memories the man[?]le of charity and excuse,
saying reverently, "Remember the temptation
and the age." But Vane's ermine has no 
stain; no act of his needs explanation or apology,
and in thought he stands abreast of the age—
like pure intellect, belongs to all time. 
     Carlyle said, in years when his words were 
worth heeding: "Young men, close your Byron 
and open your Göthe." If my counsel had weight
in these halls I should say: "Young men, close
your John Winthrop and Washington, your Jefferson
and Webster, and open Sir Harry
Vane." It was the generation that knew Vane
who gave to our Alma Mater for a seal the simple
pledge—Veritas [/i].
     But the narrowness and poverty of colonial life
soon starved out this element. Harvard was rededicated
Christo et Ecclesi[ce?],—and up to the
middle of the last century free thought in religion
meant Charles Chauncy and the Brattle-street
church protest, while free thought hardly existed
anywhere else. But a single generation changed
all this. A hundred years ago there were pulpits
that led the popular movement, while outside of
religion and of what called itself literature, industry
and a jealous sense of personal freedom
obeyed, in their rapid growth, the law
of their natures. English common sense
and those municipal institutions, born of the
common law, and which had saved and sheltered
it, grew inevitably too large for the egg-
shell of English dependence, and allowed it to
drop off as naturally as the chick does when she
is ready. There was no change of law, nothing
that could properly be called revolution, only
noiseless growth, the seed bursting into the
flower, infancy becoming manhood. It was life,
in its omnipotence, rending whatever dead matter
confined it. So have I seen the tiny weeds of
a luxuriant Italian spring upheave the colossal
foundations of the Cæsars' palace and leave it a 
mass of ruins.
     But when the veil was withdrawn what stood
revealed astonished the world. It showed the
undreamt power, the serene strength of simple
manhood, free from the burden and restraint of 
absurd institutions in church and state.
     The grandeur of this new western constellation
gave courage to Europe, resulting in the French
revolution, the greatest, the most unmixed, the
most unstained and wholly perfect blessing Europe
has had in modern times, unless, perhaps,
we may possibly except the Reformation.
     What precise effect the giant wave had when

live in a republic, since a republic trusts the state
wholly to the intelligence and moral sense of the 
people. The experience of the last forty years
shows every man that law has no atom of
strength either in Boston or New Orleans unless
and only so far as public opinion indorses it, and
that your life, goods and good name rest wholly 
on the moral sense, self-respect and law-abiding
mood of the men that walk the streets, and not a
whit on the provisions of the statute book. Come,
any one of you, outside of the ranks of popular
men, and you will not fail to find it so. Easy men 
dream that we live under a government of law;
absurd mistake—we live under a government of
men and newspapers. Your first attempt to stem
dominant and keenly cherished opinions will reveal
this to you.
     But what is education? Of course it is not 
book-learning. Book-learning does not make five
per cent of that mass of common sense that "runs"
the world, transacts its business, secures its progress,
trebles its power over nature, works out in
the long run a rough average justice, wears away
the world's restraints and lifts off its burdens.
The ideal Yankee who "has more brains in his
band than others have in their skulls," 
is not a scholar—and two-thirds of the 
inventions that enable France to double
the world's sunshine and make Old and New
England the workshops of the world, did no[t?]
come from colleges or from minds trained in the
schools of science, but struggled up, forcing
their way against giant obstacles, from the irrepressible
instinct of untrained natural power.
Her workshops, not her colleges, made England,
for a while, the mistress of the world—and the
hardest job her workmen had was to make
Oxford willing he should work his wonders.
     So of moral gains. As shrewd an observer as
Governor Marcy of New York often said he
cared nothing for the whole press of the seaboard,
representing wealth and education (he meant
book-learning) if it set itself against the instincts
of the people. Lord Brougham, in a remarkable
comment on the life of Romilly, enlarges on the
fact that the great reformer of the penal law
found all the legislative and all the judicial power
of England, its colleges and its bar, marshalled
against him, and owed his success, as all such
reforms do, says his lordship, to mass meetings
and popular instinct.
     It would be no exaggeration to say that
government itself bean in usurpation, in the
feudalism of the soldier and the bigotry of the
priest; that liberty and civilization are only fragments
of rights wrung from the strong hands of
wealth and book-learnings. Almost all the great
truths relating to society were not the result of
scholarly meditation, "hiving up wisdom with
each curious year," but have been first heard in
the solemn protests of martyred patriotism and
the loud cries of crushed and starving labor.
When common sense and the common people
have stereotyped a principle into a statute,
then book-men come to explain how it was discovered
and on what ground it rests. The world
makes history, and scholars write it, one half truly
and the other half as their prejudices blur and
distort it. New England learned more of the 
principles of toleration from a lyceum committee
doubting the dicta of editors and bishops when 
they forbade it to put Theodore Parker on its
platform; more from a debate whether the anti-
slavery [?] should be so far countenanced as
to invite one of its advocated to lecture; from
Sumner and Emerson, George William Curtis
and Edwin Whipple refusing to speak unless a
negro could buy his way into their halls as freely
as any other—New England has learned more
from these lessons than she could have done or
has from all the treatises on free printing from
Milton and Aristotle, through Locke down to 
Stuart Mill.
     The profoundest scholar of his day affirmed, "No
man is wiser for his learning"; and that
was only an echo of the Saxon proverb,
"No fool is a perfect fool until he learns
Latin." Bancroft says of our fathers
that "the wildest theories of the human reason
were reduced to practice by a community so humble
that no statesman condescended to notice it,
and a legislation without precedent was produced
off-hand by the instincts of the people." And 
Wordsworth testifies that while German schools
might well blush for their subserviency, a few
strong instincts and a few plain rules among the
herdsmen of the Alps have wrought more for
mankind at this unhappy day than all the
pride of intellect and thought. Wycliffe was, 
no doubt, a learned man. But the learning of
his day would have burned him had it dared, as it
did burn his dead body afterwards. Luther and
Melancthon were scholars, but were repudiated
by the scholarship of their time, which followed
Erasmus, trying "all his life to tread on eggs
without breaking them," who proclaimed that
"peaceful error was better than tempestuous 
truth."
     Hence I do not think the greatest things have
been done for the world by its book men. Education
is not the chips of arithmetic and gram-
mar—nouns, verbs, and the multiplication table;
neither is it that last year's almanac of dates, or
series of lies agreed upon, which we so often mistake
for history. Education is not Greek and
Latin and the air-pump.
     Still I rate at its full value the training we get
in these walls. Though what we actually carry
away is little enough, we do get some training of
our powers, as the gymnast or the fencer does of
his muscles; we go hence also with such general
knowledge of what mankind has agreed to
consider proved and settled that we know where
to reach for the weapon when we need it.
     I have often though the motto prefixed to his 
college library catalogue by the father of the late
Professor Pierce—Professor Pierce, the largest
natural genius—the man of the deepest reach and
firmest grasp and widest sympathy that God has
given to Harvard in our day—whose presence
made you the loftiest peak and farthest outpost
of more than mere scientific thought; the magnet
who, with his twin Agassiz, made Harvard for forty
years the intellectual Mecca of forty States. His
father's catalogue bore for a motto, ["Scire ubi 
áliquid invenias magna parse eruditionis est,"] and
that always seemed to me to gauge very nearly all
we acquired at college except facility in the use
of our powers. Our influence in the community
does ont really spring from superior attainments;
but from this thorough training of faculties and
more even, perhaps, from the deference men accord
to us.
     Gibbon says we have two educations, one from
teachers and the other we give ourselves.
     This last is the real and only education of the 
masses—one gotten from life, from affairs, from
earning one's bread,—necessity the mother of invention,
—responsibility that teaches prude[u]ce
and inspires respect for right. Mark the critic
out of office,—how reckless in assertion, how careless
of consequences, and then the caution, forethought
and fair play of the same men charged
with administration. See that young, thought-
less wife, suddenly widowed; how wary and skilful;
what ingenuity in guarding her child and
saving his rights. Any one who studied Europe
forty or fifty years ago could not but have marked
the level of talk there, far below that of our 
masses. It was of crops and rents, markets and
marriages, scandal and fun. Watch men here,
and how often you listen to the keenest discussions
of right and wrong; this leader's honesty, that
party's justice, the fairness of this law, the impolicy
of that measure,—lofty, broad topics, training
morals, widening views.
     Nie[?]uhr says of Italy, sixty years ago: "No
one feels himself a citizen, not only are the people
destitute of hope, but they have not even wishes
touching the world's affairs; and hence all the
springs of great and noble thoughts are choked
up."
     In this sense the Fremont campaign of 1856 
taught Americans more than a hundred colleges,
and John Brown's pulpit at Harper's Ferry was
equal to any ten thousand ordinary chairs. God
lifted a million of hearts to his gibbet, as the
Roman cross lifted a world to itself in 
that Divine sacrifice of two thousand years ago.
As much statesmanship had taught with
our previous eighty years, that one week of intellectual 
watching and weighing and dividing
truth taught twenty millions of people.
     Yet how little, brother, can we claim for book[?]enin 
that uprising and growth of 1856, and
white the first of American scholars could hardly
find in the rich vocabulary of Saxon scorn words
enough to express, amid the plaudits of his class,
his loathing and contempt for John Brown, Europe
thrilled to him as proof that our institution
had not lost all their native and distinctive life.
She had grown tired of our parrot note and cold
moonlight reflection of older civilizations. Lansdowne 
and Brougham could confess to Sumner
that they had never read a page of the cotemporary,
 Daniel Webster, and you spoke to vacant
eyes when you named Prescott, fifty years ago, to

demagogue—the corner grog-shop; but they advise
taking away the ballot from the poor citizen.
But this provision would not reach the evil. Corruption
does not so much rot the masses, it poisons
Congress. Credit Mobilier and money rings
are not housed under thatched roofs—they flaunt
at the capitol. As usual in chemistry the scum 
floats uppermost; the railway king disdained canvassing
for voters—"it is cheaper," he said, "to
buy legiislatures."
     It is not the masses who have most disgraced 
our political appa[l]s. I have seen many mobs between
the seaboard and the Mississippi. I never
saw or heard of any but well-dressed mobs, assembled
and countenanced, if not always led in 
person, by respectability and what called itself
education.
     That unrivalled scholar, the first and greatest
New England ever lent to Congress, signalled his
advent by quoting the original Greek of the New
Testament in defence of slavery, and offering to
should his musket up in its defence—and forty years
later the last professor who went to quicken and
lift the moral mood of those halls is found advising
a plain, blunt, honest, witness to forge
and lie that this scholarly reputation might be
saved from wreck. Singular comment on Lando[n]'s 
sneer that there is a spice of the soundrel 
in most of our literary men. But no exacting
level of property qualification for a vote would
have saved those stains. In those cases Judas
did not come from the unlearned class.
     Grown gray over history, Macaulay prophesied
twenty years ago that soon in these States the 
poor, worse than another in[r]oad of Goths and
Vandals, would begin a general plunder of the
rich. It is enough to say that our funds still sell
better in Europe than English consols, and the 
universal suffrage Union can borrow money
as cheaply as Great Britain—ruled one-half by 
tories, and the other half by men not certain
that they dare call themselves whigs.
     Some men affected to scoff at democracy as no
sound basis for national debt, doubting the payment 
of ours. Europe not only wonders at its
rapid payment; but the only taint of fraud that
touches even the hem of our garments is the
fraud of the capitalists' cunningly adding to its
burdens and increasing unfairly the value of his
bonds; not the first hin from the people of repudiating
an iota even of its unjust additions.
     Yet the poor and the unlearned class is the one
they propose to punish by disenfranchisement!
     No wonder the humbler class looks on the whole
scene with alarm. They see their dearest right in
peril. When the easy class conspires to steal,
what wonder the humbler class draws together to 
defend itself! True, universal suffrage is a terrible
power; and with all the great cities brought
into subjection to the dangerous classes by grog,
and Congress sitting to register the decrees of
capital, both sides may well dread the next move. 
Experience proves that popular governments
are the best protectors of life and property.
But suppose they were not; that
universal suffrage endangered peace and
threatened property. There is something more
valuable than wealth; there is something more
sacred than peace. As Humboldt says, "The
finest fruit earth holds up to its Maker is a man."
To ripen, lift and educate a man is the first duty.
Trade, law, learning, science and religion are only
the scaffolding wherewith to build a man. Despotism
looks down into poor man's cradle, and
knows it can crush resistance and curb ill-will.
Democracy sees the ballot in that baby-hand, and
selfishness bids her put integrity on one side of 
those baby footsteps and intelligence on the other,
lest her own hearth be in peril. Thank God for his
method of taking bonds of wealth and culture to
share all their blessings with the humblest soul
he gives to their keeping! The American should
cherish as serene a faith as his fathers had. Instead
of seeking a coward safety by battening
down the hatches and putting men back into 
chains, he should recognize that God places him
in this peril that he may work out a noble security 
by concentrating all moral forces to life this 
weak, rotting and dangerous mass into sunlight
and health. The fathers touched their highest 
level when, with stout-hearted and serene faith,
they trusted God that it was safe to leave ment
with all the rights he gave them. Let us be
worthy of their blood, and save this sheet-anchor
of the race,—universal suffrage, God's church,
God's school, God's method of gently binding
men into commonwealths in order that they may
at last melt into brothers.
     I urge on college-bred men that, as a class, they
fail in republican duty when they allow others to
lead in the agitation of the great social questions
which stir and educate the age.
     Agitation is an old word with a new meaning.
Sir Robert Peel, the first English leader who felt 
himself its tool, defined it to be "marshalling the
conscience of a nation to mould its laws." Its
means are reason and argument,—no appeal to 
arms. Wait patiently for the growth of public
opinion; that secured, then every step taken is
taken forever. An abuse once removed never reappears 
in history, the freer a nation becomes the
more utterly democratic in its form, the more
need of this outside agitation. Parties and sects
laden with the burden of securing their own success
cannot afford to risk new ideas. "Predominant
opinions," said Disraeli, "are the opinions of 
a class that is vanishing." The agitator must
stand outside of organization, with no bread to
earn, no candidate to elect, no party to save, no
object but truth to tear a question open and 
riddle it with light.
     In all modern constitutional governments agitation
is the only peaceful method of progress.
Wilberforce and Clarkson, Rowland Hill and
Romilly, Cobden and John Bright, Garrison and
O'Connell, have been the master spirits in this
new form of crusade. Rarely in this country
have scholarly men joined, as a class, in these
great popular schools, in these social movements
which make the great interests of society "crash
and roll against each other like frigates in a 
storm."
     It is not so much that the people need us, or
will feel any lack from our absence. They can
do without us. By sovereign and superabundant 
strength they can crush their way through all 
obstacles.
They will march prospering—not through one presence;
Songs will inspirit them—not from one lyre;
Deeds will be done—while we boast our quiescence,
Still bidding crouch whom the rest bid aspire.
     The misfortune is that if we lose a God-given
opportunity of making the change an unmixed 
good, or with the slightest possible share of evil, 
and are recreant beside to a special duty.
     These "agitations" are the opportunities and
the means God offers us to refine the taste, mould
the character, life the purpose and educate the
moral sense of the masses, on whose intelligence
and self-respect rests the state. God furnishes
these texts. He gathers for us this audience, and
only asks of our coward lips to preach the sermons.
     There have been four or five of these great opportunities.
The crusade against slavery was one
—that grand hypocrisy which poisoned the national
life of two generations—that conflict between
two civilizations which threatened to rend
the Union. Almost every element among us was
stirred to take a part in the battle. Every
great issue, civil and moral, was involved—
toleration of opinion, limits of authority,
relation of citizen to law, place of the Bible,
sphere of woman, question of race, priest and layman,
state rights and nationality; and Channing
testified that free speech and free printing owed
their preservation to the struggle. But the pu;pit
flung the Bible at the reformer, law visited him
with its penalties, society spewed him out of its
mouth, bishops expurgated the pictures of their
common prayer books, and editors omitted pages
in republishing English history. Pierpont emasculated
his class-book, Bancroft remodelled his
chapters, and Everett carried Washington through
thirty States, remembering to forget the brave
words the wise Virginian had left on record
warning his countrymen of this evil.
     Amid this battle of the giants scholarship sat 
dumb for thirty years, until imminent and deadly
peril convulsed it into action, and college, in
their despair, gave to the army that help they had
refused to the market-place and the rostrum.
There were here and there an exception. That
earthquake scholar at Concord, whose serene
word, like a whisper among the avalanches, topples
down superstitions and prejudices, was at his
post, and with half a score of others
made the exception that proved the rule.
Pulpits, just so far as they could not boast of
culture, and nestled closest down among the
masses, were infinitely braver than the "spires
and antique towers" of stately collegiate institutions.
     Then came the reform of penal legislation—
the effort to make law mean justice, and stubstitute
for its barbarism Christianity and civilization.

On the morrow crouches Judas
With the silver in his hands,
Far in front the cross stands ready,
And the crackling fagots burn,
While that hooting mob of yesterday
In silent awe return,
To gather up the scattered ashes
Into history's golden urn.

In such a land he is doubly and trebly guilty
who, except in some extreme case, disturbs the
sober rule of law and order. But such is not Russia.
In Russia there is no press, no debate, no
explanation of what government does, no remonstrance
allowed, no agitation of public issues,-
dead silence, like that which reigns at the summit
of Mount Blanc, freezes the whole empire,-long
ago described as a "Despotism tempered by assassination."
Meanwhile, such despotism has
unsettled the brains of the ruling race, as unbridled
power doubtless made some of the twelve
Cæsars insane,-a madman, sporting with the
lives and comfort of a hundred millions of men.
   The young girl whispers in her mother's
ear, under a ceiled roof, her pity for a brother
knouted and dragged half dead into exile for his
opinions. The next week she is stripped naked
and flogged to death in the public square; no inquiry,
no explanation, no trial, no protest-one
dead, uniform silence, the law of the tyrant-
where is there ground for any hope of peaceful
change! Where is the fulcrum upon which you can
plant any possible lever! Machiavel's sorry picture
of poor human nature would be fulsome
flattery if men could keep still under such oppression.
   No, no; in such a land dynamite and the dagger
are the necessary and only proper substitutes
for Faneuil ball and the Daily Advertiser. Anything
that will make the madman quake in his
bedchamber, and rouse his victims into reckless
and desperate resistance. 
   This is the only view an American, the child of
1[6?]20 and 1776, can take of nihilism-any other unsettles
and perplexes the ethics of our civilization.
    Born within sight of Bunker's Hill, in a commonwealth
which adopts the motto of Algernon
Sydney, sub libertate quietem (accept no peace
without liberty)-son of Harvard whose first
pledge was "Truth," citizen of a republic based
on the claim that no government is rightful unless
resting on the consent of the people, and
which assumes to lead in asserting the rights of
humanity, I at least can say nothing else and
nothing less, no not if every tile on Cambridge
roofs were a devil hooting my words.
    I shall bow to any rebuke from those who hold
Christianity to command entire non-resistance.
But criticism from any other quarter is only that
nauseous hypocrisy which, strung by three-penny
tea-tax, piles Bunker Hill with granite and statues,
prating the while of patriotism and broadswords, 
while, like another Pecksniff, it recommends
a century of dumb submission and entire
non-resistance to the Russians who, for a hundred
years have seen their sons by thousands
dragged to death or exile, no one knows which, 
in this worse than Venetian mystery of police,
and their maidens flogged to death in the market
place, and who share the same fate if they presume
to ask the reason why.
   "It is unfortunate," says Jefferson, "that the 
efforts of mankind to secure the freedom of what
they have been deprived should be accompanied
with violence and even with crime. But while we
weep over the means, we must pray for the end."
Pray fearlessly for such ends; there is no risk.
"Men are all tories by nature," says Arnold,
"when tolerably well off; only monstrous injustice
and atrocious cruelty can rouse them." Some
talk of the rashness of the uneducated classes.
Alas! ignorance is far oftener obstinate than rasn.
Against on French Revolution-the scarecrow
of the ages-weigh Asia, "carved in stone," and
a thousand years of Europe, with her half-dozen
nations meted out of trodden down, to be the dull
and contended footstools of priests and kings.
The customs of a thousand years ago are the
sheet-anchor of the passing generation, so deeply
buried, so fixed, that the most violent efforts of
the maddest fanatic can drag it but a hand's
breadth.
    Before the war Americans were where the crowd
in that terrible half of Eblis which Beckford
painted for us,-each man with his hand pressed
on the incurable sore in his bosom, and pledged
not to speak of it,-compared with other lands,
we were intellectually and morally a nation of 
cowards.
When I first entered the Roman States a custom-house official seized all of my French books. In
vain I held up to him treatise by Fenlon, and 
explained that it was by a Catholic archbishop of
Cambray. Guilty he answered, "it makes no
difference; it is French." As I surrendered the 
volume to his remorseless grasp, I could not but
honor the nation which had made its revolutionary
purpose so definite that despotism feared its very
language. I only wished that injustice and despotism 
everywhere might one day have as good a cause to 
have and fear everything American. 
At last that disgraceful seal of slave complicity 
is broken. Let us inaugurate a new departure, 
recognize that we are afloat on the current of 
Niagara-eternal vigilance the condition of our 
safety- that we are irrevocably pledged to the 
world not to go back to bolts and bars- could not 
if we would, and would not if we could. Never
again be ours the fastidious scholarship that 
shrinks from rude contact with the masses. Very 
pleasant it is so sit high up in the world's theatre
and criticize the ungrateful struggles of the gladiators, 
shrug one's shoulders at the actors' harsh 
cries, and let for "this villainous saltpetre, you would 
yourself have been a soldier." But Bacon says: "In the
theatre of man's life, God and his angels only should be  
lookers-on." "Sin is not taken out of man as Eve was out 
of Adam, by putting him to sleep." "Very beautiful," says
Richter, "is the eagle when he floats with outstretched 
wings aloft in clear blue; but sublime when he plunges 
down through the tempest to his eyrie on the cliff, where 
his unfledged young ones dwell and are starving."
Accept proudly the analysis of Fisher Ames: "A 
monarchy is a man of war, stanch, iron ribbed
and resistless when under full sail: yet a single
hidden rock sends her to the bottom. Our republic 
is a raft hard to steer, and your feet always wet, but
nothing can sink her." 
 If the Alps piled in cold and silence be the emblem of despotism, we joyfully take the everrestless ocean, for ours, only pure because never still.
  To be as good as our fathers we must be better. 
They silenced their fears and subdued their 
prejudices, inaugurating free speech and equality 
with no precedent on the [?]ile. Europe shouted, 
"madmen," and gave us forty years [?]or 
the shipwreck. With serene faith they persevered.
Let us rise to their level, crush appetite and prohibit 
temptation [it] it rots great cities. Entrench labor in 
sufficient bulwarks against that wealth which without 
the tenfold strength of modern incorporation, 
wrecked the Grecian and Roman States- and with a
sterner effort still, summon women into civil life 
as reinforcement to our laboring ranks in the effort
to make our civilization a success. 
  Sit not, like the figure on our silver coin, looking
ever backward. 

New occasions teach new duties, 
Time makes ancient good uncouth.
They must upward, still, and onward,
Who would keep abreast of truth. 
Lo, before us gleam her watchfires-
We ourselves must pilgrims be. 
Launch our Mayflower, and steer boldly
Nor attempt the future's portal 
With the past's blood-rusted key.

EXTRA TRIPS FOR NANTASKET.- A new time 
table, providing trips to and from Nantasket 
beach nearly every hour from early morning till 
ten o'clock at night, will provide a great convenience 
to the public, whose experience last year on 
crowded boats was anything but pleasant. This 
new arrangement will give every one more room
and make the management more popular with
the harbor-going public.

  George H. Davis and another vs. Old Colony 
Railroad Company.- This is an action to recover 
of the defendant a balance of $3000 and interest,
alleged to be due under a contract of guaranty, by
which the subscribers thereto guaranteed the  
payment of the expenses of the World's Peace 
Jubilee to the amount subscribed. The case was
reported for the consideration of the full court, 
the only question raised by the report being 
whether the plaintiffs ought to be non-suited, on
the ground that the defendant had no power 
to enter into the contract declared on.
The court has now ordered judgment for the defendants, 
for the reason that the "the contract sued
on is ultra vires of the defendant corporation."
M. F. Dickinson, jr., and J. Fox for the plaintiffs,
and J. H. Benton for the defendants.
  John Carver vs. Lewis A. Peck,-- Creditor's bill,
seeking to apply the defendant's interest in a patent 
to the payment of the plaintiff's debt. The
Plaintiff alleged that the defendant is indebted
to him for the use and occupation of a house ;
that a patent of great value was granted to the 
defendant, of which he is the sole owner ; that he
has no other visible property, and refuses to apply
the patent or any of the proceeds thereof to
the payment of the plaintiff's debt. The prayer
was that the defendant may apply the valuable interest he has in the patent
to the payment of the plaintiff's debt.
There was a demurrer to the bill, which at a
bearing before a single justice was sustained and
the bill was dismissed. The plaintiff's debt.
There was a demurrer to the bill, which at a
bearing before a single justice was sustained and
the bill was dismissed. The plaintiff appealed,
and this court has now affirmed the decree with
costs, holding that "the patent right owned by the defendant is not on interest which can be reached
under the General Statutes, Chapters 113, section
2, clause 11" E. C. Gilman for the plaintiff and 
J. H. Bradley for the defendant.
   Catherine Lynch vs. Umah H. Coffin.-- This
action of tort was tried in the superior court, the
jury finding for the defendant. James Douglas 
was a material witness for the plaintiff, and 
on his direct examination was asked by 
counsel for the plaintiff, if Coffin
had come to him and asked him to go to his 
(Coffin's) counsel's offices Douglas said that he had.
When Coffin, the defendant, was put upon the
stand, he was asked by his counsel, subject to
plaintiff's exceptions, the following question :
"What did Douglas say to you, and you to him,
when you went to see Douglas and asked him to
go up to your counsel's office." Coffin's answer
was: "I asked him to go up to my counsel's 
office, Perry & Creech ; he said he had been over
to Cambridge three of four days, and had got 
nothing for it; that he was a poor man and could
not afford to lose his time, and that he had a job
and could not go up. I asked him how much he
was going to get for the job, and he said two dollars.
I said you will only lose a half day, I will 
give you a dollar ; so I gave him a dollar and he 
agreed to come up Monday morning, but did not."
To this question and answer the plaintiff alleged
exceptions, which have been overruled, the
grounds of the decision being as follows: The 
evidence objected to was introduced in reply to
evidence offered by the plaintiff. If material, 
it was not error in the presiding judge was
bound to admit it. C. R. Train and M. H. Swett
for the plaintiff, and N. Morse and H. G. Allen
for the defendant.

NOTES
   The Park County Reduction Company elected
yesterday a board of directors and also appointed
officers whose names may all be seen in another
column by referring to the company's advertisement.
They present an unusually strong board
of directors, gentlemen known widely for financial 
strength and business talent, which has made
them successful in their own enterprises,
and which will be brought to bear upon this very  
promising project. Some information in regard 
to the profits of smelting has been recently given
to the public through the statements of the Boston
and Colorado Smelting Company made at
their annual meeting, which show that the 
operations of this company have yielded extraordinary
returns to the original subscribers to 
the stock, their dividends having been at least
fifty per cent annually on their investments.
A large amount of the high grade ores heretofore
treated at Hill's works have been obtained from
Park county. The Park County Reduction Company
have the great advantage of being located 
in the immediate vicinity of some of the richest
of these mines, from which it has already secured
a large supply of ore. There is abundant
water and wood, with coal fields near at
band. Contracts made for 30,000 tons of
ore from the dumps of the Dolly Varden
and Moose mines are said to assure the
new company, after the most liberal allowance 
for costs of smelting, a net profit of $300,000 from
these contracts alone. Some of the most shrewd 
and careful investors regard this as a rare opportunity
to join at first cost in a very desirable business,
which, under the skillful direction secured,
is sure to be very profitable, and they are taking
up considerable amounts of the stock. Shares
may be obtained at $1.50 each at the office of 
Goff, Hastings & Co., 131 Devonshire street.
The stockholders of the Empire will no doubt
be gratified to learn that the company will not be
reorganized, and there will be no assessment. If
any money is absolutely needed to carry on the
work of development, which is now being so vigorously
prosecuted, a few of the heaviest stockholders
will loan a sufficient amount for this purpose,
so great is their confidence in the value of
the property. This statement comes from a perfectly
reliable source.
The latest advices from the Brittenstene state
that the mill will be in operation in less than a
month, and that thirty-five men are employed
constantly in the mines.
The superintendent of the Arizona Queen
writes: "Want no money for this mouth's expenses.
Can sell ore enough to pay all bills"
The Exchange Silver Mining and Milling Company
has declared a dividend of three cents a
share on the capital stock, payable July 29
[?]paying bases within a short time.
Subscriptions to the stock at fifty cents a share will be
received for a limited period from July 1, 1881.

is also a part owner; the other owners are Mr Luther J
Robey, J Baker & Co, and Mr Smith. She is now loading
for Philadelphia, and will be ready for sea in a few days.
A better vessel of her size has never been built at East Boston.
 A centre-board schooner of about 600tons burthen is in 
framing at the Deering & Donnell yard, Bath.
 Baltimore, June 28 - Judge Bond, in the United States
Circuit Court, today rendered his decision in th ecase of 
Matheurin Guibert et al, owners of the brig Briha, against
the ship George Bell, for damages for collision, by which
the brig was sunk, on appeal from the District Court.
The decision of the District Court awarding the libellants
$17,000 was affirmed and notice was given of an appeal to 
the Supreme Court. The case has been litigated nearly
three years.
 Newburyport, June 29 - Schr Yankee, which has been
engaged by Mr Townsend, who has contracted to remove
the South Gargway Rocks, arrived in the river this morn-
ing, and work will be commenced immediately.
 Port Elizabet, May 20 - Owing to the large amount of
cargo in port to be discharged here and the limited store
room available, the landing of the cargo of barque Louis,
from Mauritius for New York, has not yet been com-
menced, but it is expected that it will be proceeded with
this week.
 St Johns, NB, June 25 - The investigation into the disas-
ters to the barque Lady Dufferin and ship John Murphy was
completed yesterday by the Pilot Commissioners. Pilot
Sutton, in charge of the Dufferin, was suspended for one
month, and Pliot Leahy, who was in the other vessel, for
three months.
 THEFT OF A STEAMSHIP - Some ingenious rogues last
year chartered the steamer Ferrett, at Glasgow, by means
of bills which subsequently proved to be worthless. The 
steamer was taken to Cardiff, where she shipped a new
crew, and was despatched to Cardiff, where she shipped a new
crew, and was despatched to Brazil, where she took in a 
cargo of coffee. Changing her name twice she proceeded
to the Cape, where her cargo was sold for £13'000. Thence
she proceeded to the Mauritius and afterward to Mel-
bourne. More than once she had been rechristened, and
now was known as the India. She had also been painted
afresh, so that, between her new name and altered ap-
pearance, her identity had been rendered difficult. Some-
thing had gone wrong when she reached Melbourne, and
her reputed owner and captain disappeared. The the
crew exposed the fraud that had been practiced, and the
vessel was seized by the authorities.
 A FINE SHIP - Probably no finer specimen of marine 
architecture has ever entered this port than the ship W J
Rotch, now loading for Japan. She as built by the
well-known shipbuilders Gcss. Sawyer & Packard, of 
Bath. Me, registers 1717 tons and her dimensions are as 
follows: Length on main deck, 220 feet, breadth of beam,
42 feet; depth of hold, 24 feet She has a full poop ex-
tending to main hatch: the deck and spars are of Oregon
pine frame of selected white oak, thoroughly seasoned.
ceiling and planking hard pine knees of hack[?]atack.
She is very heavily fastened, and shows great strength,
while she is finished in the best manner. Her model indi-
cates not only great carrying capacity, but fine sailing
qualities, her lines being graceful and easy. She is fitted
with a powerful engine for getting up anchor, discharging
cargoes, &e. and in all her fittings no expense has been
spared to make her strictly first-class. The cabin is ele-
gantly furnished, and is finished in black walnut and
maple. The vessel has been much admired here by the 
underwriter, and others who have visited her and she
classes at Bureau Veritas and here for fifteen years.

THE EVANS
Artificial Leather Co.
Manufactures the only substitute of Upper Leather
in the world that has proved satisfactory or practical, 
and that cannot be distinguished from leather.
Being very handsome and durable, not affected by heat
or cold, and impervious to oil or water, it is for many purposes
superior to leather, and costs from one-third to one-
half less. It is manufactured in various weights and in 
every desirable shade of color, including also in Gold, 
Silver and Bronze. It comes in rolls of 30 to 50 yards,
and 36 and 50 inches in width. A corporation has recently
been organized under the laws of New Hampshire,
where the factory is located, for the manufacture of this
artificial leather, under various letters patent granted by
the United States. A full assortment of the above most
desirables goods can be found, and articles made from it
shown, at Office and Salesrooms, 92 Pearl street, corner of

MEMORANDA.
The new steamers Alleghany, and Berkshire, building
at Cramp's, Philadelphia, for the Merchants' and Miner's
Transportation Company of Baltimore, are to be launched
in a few days.  The Alleghany, which will be the first
launched, will, when completed, be commanded by Capt
Josias C Parker, at present first officer of the steamer
Johns Hopkins.  Capt. Edward E Kent, at present first
officer of the steamer Decatur H Miller, will command
he Berkshire.
  The new 3-masted schr Charles L Jeffrey, of Boston, is
a strong, beautiful vessel of 400 tons, designed for the general
freighting business.  She is 125 feet long on the keel,
140 on deck and 145 over all; has 30 feet breadth of beam,
11 feet depth of hold, and has a half poop 45 feet long, in
which her cabins are built.  She has a topgallant forecastle,
good accommodations for the crew, the galley and
storerooms.  All her deck arrangements are well designed
for working ship.  Her frame is of New Hampshire white 
oak.  She was built as East Boston by Mr John M Brooks,
who is also one of her owners, and has been fitted to rate
A1 for 15 years at French Lloyds.  In pumps, ground
tackle, steering gear, boats and other equipments, she is
liberally suppliedr Capt J P Basseet, who commands her,
is also a part owner; the other owners are Mr Luther J
Robey, J Baker & Co, and Mr Smith.  She is now loading
for Philadelphia, and will be ready for sea in a few days.
A better vessel of her size has never been built at East
Boston.
  A centre-board schooner of about 600 tons burthen is in
framing at the Deering & Donnell yard, Bath.
  Baltimore, June 28--Judge Bond, in the United States
Circuit Court, today rendered his decision in the case of
Matheurin Guibert et al, owners of the brig Briha, against
the ship George Bell, for damages for collision, by which
the brig was sunk, or appeal from the District Court.
The decision of the District Court awarding the libeliants
$17,000 was affirmed and notice was given of an appeal to 
the Supreme Court.  The case has been litigated 
nearly three years.
  Newburyport, June 29--Schr Yankee, which has been 
engaged by Mr Townsend, who has contracted to remove 
the South Gangway Rocks, arrived in the river this morning, 
and work will be commenced immediately.
  Port Elizabeth, May 20--Owing to the large amount of
cargo in port to be discharged here and the limited store
room available, the landing of the cargo of barque Louis,
from Mauritius for New York, has not yet been commenced,
but it is expected that it will be proceeded with
next week.
  St John, NB, June 25--The investigation into the disasters 
to barque Lady Dufferin and ship John Murphy was 
completed yesterday by the Pilot Commissioners.  Pilot 
Sutton, in charge of the Dufferin, was suspended for one
month, and Pliot Leahy, who was in the other vessel, for
three months.
  THEFT OF A STEAMSHIP--Some ingenious rogues last
year chartered the steamer Ferret, at Glasgow, by means
of bills which subsequently proved to be worthless.  The
steamer was taken to Cardiff, where she shipped a new
crew, and was despatched to Brazil, where she took in a
cargo of coffee.  Changing her name twice, she proceeded 
to the Cape, where her cargo was sold for ₤13000.  Thence
she proceeded to the Mauritius and afterward to Melbourne.
More than once she had been rechristened, and
now was known as the India.  She had also been painted
afresh, so that, between her new name and altered appearance,
her identity had been rendered difficult.  Something
had gone wrong when she reached Melbourne, and
her reputed owner and captain disappeared.  Then the
crew exposed the fraud that had been practiced, and the
vessel was seized by the authorities.
  A FINE SHIP--Probably no finer specimen of marine
architecture has ever entered this port than the ship W J
Rotch, now loading for Japan.  She was built by the
well-known shipbuilders Gess. Sawyer & Packard, of
Bath, Me, registers 1717 tons and her dimensions are as
follows:  Length on main deck, 220 feet, breadth of beam,
42 feet; depth of hold, 24 feet  She has a full poop, extending 
to main hatch; the deck and spars are of Oregon
pine, frame of selected white oak, thoroughly seasoned,
ceiling and planking hard pine knees of hackmatack.
She is very heavily fastened, and shows greath strength,
while she is finished in the best manner.  Her model indicates
not only great carrying capacity, but fine sailing
qualities, her lines being graceful and easy.  She is fitted
with a powerful engine for getting up anchor, discharging
cargoes, &c. and in all her fittings no expense has been
spared to make her strictly first-class.  The cabin is elegantly
furnished, and is finished in black walnut and
maple.  The vessel has been much admired here by the
underwriters and others who have visited her and she
classes at Bureau Veritas and here for fifteen years.--

           REVISION OF THE STATUTES.
                      -----------------------
GOOD PROGRESS MAKING IN THE WORK OF THE
   COMMITTEE--THE ELECTION LAW REFERRED
   BACK TO THE COMMISSIONERS--TWO ORDERS
   PASSED FOR FACILITATING BUSINESS.
                     -------------------------
   The committee on the revision of the statutes
approved without amendment at their session on
Wednesday chapters 61, 203, 213 and 217 of statutes
as prepared by the commissioners and approved
with certain verbal changes designed to remove
ambiguities; chapters 86, 114, 116, 157, 212 and 219,
Chapter 6, which is the chapter on elections,
was considered yesterday, and a large
number of amendments were proposed, but finally
the whole chapter was referred back to the
commissioners that they might present it in a
new drait comprehending such amendments as
had been agreed upon. The action of yesterday
was the approval of chapters 27, 60, 158, 180, 198
and 199. These relate to town and town officers;
the inspection and sale of various articles; judges
and registers of probate and insolvency; actions
for private nuisances; costs and the fees of certain
officers; and fees of certain officers. In some
of these no changes were made, and in others
verbal but comparatively unimportant amendments
were adopted. Of chapter 60, sections 67,
68 and 69 were recommended to the ligislature
to be repealed. These sections
relate to the manufacture and sale of
paper, and provide that certain kinds of paper
shall be put up in teams or half reams. The
particular exception taken to the statute as it
stands related to the packing of paper for printing
newspapers, the provision of law being that
such paper shall be packed in quantities not
larger than two reams. The law is practically
obsolete, but technically is violated every day by
manufacturers of such paper, and this unavoidably.
Since the introduction of the "perfecting 
press" for newspaper work manufacturers can
only sell for use on that style of press paper made
in a continuous sheet and rolled up as a cylinder
in quantity amounting to many reams. After
debate the committee came to the conclusion
that the whole matter of regulating the
packing of paper might well be removed from the
statute book. The order providing that the clerk
appointed to prepare for printing a copy of the
statutes, as revised and corrected by the committee
and the commissioners, be required to perform
only such duties as may be designated from time
to time by the sub-committee on printers' copy
and marginal references, and that under the
direction of the sub-committee he be authorized
to employ such additional clerical or other assistance
as may be necessary in preparing the copy
and reading proof, was adopted. The order for
the printing of 1000 copies of a pamphlet specifying
the changes made by the committee in the
work of the commissioners, and for the distribution
of the same, in the same manner as the
original report of the commission, was also
adopted. The committee have acted upon upward
of fifty of the total 223 chapters reported by the
commission.

                                  ---------------
OPINIONS FROM SOME OF THE LEADING PROFESSIONS
   AND TRADES, AS EMBODIED IN PRELIMINARY
   LETTERS--ESTIMATES OF SUBSCRIPTIONS.
                                 ----------------
   In advance of the meeting of the committee of
twenty eight some of the various sub-committees
have sent in preliminary letters giving an expression
of opinion as to the interest taken by the departments
of business which they represent. A
selection from these letters is given below as an
evidence of the popular feeling and hearty goodwill
with which this enterprise has been received
                          CLERGYMEN.
                               PARK-STREET CHURCH,
                                      Boston, June 4, 1881.
R. M. Pulsifer, esq.:--
   Dear Sir,--The obstacles to a world's fair in Boston
will diminish according to the increase of our
determination to succeed. Hinderance, like
mountains, usually look highest at a distance.
Whatever serious embarrassments have been felt
where other such great fairs have been held, not
one of them had native Yankee wit and Boston
grit to make it go. We accept the sober advice
of Governor Rice and others, and with them
would adopt as our motto for the moment, Festina
lente. But let us not listen to the command of
the ancient militia captain: "Company, advance
two steps backward." Boston is counted abler
than other cities that are larger. Now is her opportunity
to prove it. Is it not evident that her
neighbor on the North river is ashamed of a failure
to have a world's fair, and slightly jealous of
the almost assured success that Boston is about to
achieve? My citizenship here covers but five years,
and this lightens the weight of my words. But if I
had the rights of birth and life-time residence
they would support my steadfast desire that this
scheme be carried to completion, for the sake of
what it will do for learning, art, commerce and
international comity. As to what my "class of 
business" may subscribe I know not. Clergymen
usually keep one command of Christ: "Provide
neither gold nor silver nor brass in your
purses"! Nevertheless, the cordial favor they
would surely give might count for something
considerable in the way of public sentiment!
Should life and residence with you last, I shall
count it not a duty but a privilege to contriubte
from my annual salary as much as I can spare,
until the fair is an accomplished fact. Not that
my hundreds will be noticed among your millions.
But for the satisfaction it will afford me
to see Boston succeed where New York failed;
and to know that the issue of the enterprise will
be beneficial to the entire world.
                                   Yours, sincerely,
                                                     J. L. WITHROW.

              PIANOS, MUSIC, ORGANS, ETC.
  It give me pleasure to state that our committee
are strongly in favor of the world's fair, and that
they will take, probably, $10,000 of the stock. We
have issued the enclosed circular to the music
trade, and hope for liberal additions to the above
in response thereto.
                                       Very truly yours,
                                                       HENRY MASON.

                                   FLORISTS.
   We take pleasure in expressing our interest and
co-operation in the project. We are willing to
subscribe, and will do all in our power, in connection
with the other representatives of our business,
to bring the fair to a successful inauguration.

Phi Beta Kappa oration at Yale College, and
on that occasion his theme was "The
'Scholar as an Agitator." His theme yesterday
was similar one, the duty of educated 
men in America  to give their sympathy
and their active aid to the great popular
movement which are protests against oppression
and wrong. The distinguished orator
appears to have gathered up in this all
the forces of argument, appeal and illustration
at his command to impress upon the
audience before him the duty of the scholar
to throw all the value of his scholarship
into the hot contentions which rage about
him, on the side of those who struggle for
better opportunities and a larger liberty.

Mr. Phillips abated not a whit from the radicalism
of his ideas to suit the opinions or the
prejudices of his hearers. Rather he flaunted 
his extreme views touching all topics of
current agitation, as if determined that if
there was anything shocking in them it
should discover itself fully. The slavery agitation,
woman suffrage, prohibition, Ireland's
rebellion, and Russian nihilsm, all
these were causes to which he committed
himself, and for which he bespoke the sympathy
of all. But the underlying idea of the
oration was faith in the right and power of
the people to rule universal suffrage, and
the duty of educated men to contribute their
strength and their wisdom to the strengthening
and elevation of the weak so that rule 
by universal suffrage should be intelligent
and safe. He enforces the truth that one of
the necessary results of government by the
majority is that the rich and the cultivated
are under constant compulsion for their own
security to make intelligence and comfort a 
common possession, to be guarded by the
equal interests of all.

Unquestionably there is much in this address,
as there is much in every address of
Mr. Phillips, to which neither scholars such
as the members of the Phi Beta Kappa society,
nor anyone else who is not also a believer 
in agitation for agitation's sake, will
commend itself to approbation, and will 
appreciate and admire the orators's marvelous
force of statement and unapproached
felicity of illustration. The example of a 
man who dares utter his boldest thought in
any presence, summoning the recluses of the
closet to grapple with the problems of the 
shops and the streets as their highest duty 
and the means of justifying their claim to 
be reputed wise, is something which in itself
is inspiring.

THE SILVER CONFERENCE at PARIS.

The question before the international conference
at Paris is no longer whether the interests
of business make it desirable to raise
the price of silver by a syndicate of governments,
but whether the conference can arrive
at any tangible action at all. The several 
representatives were willing to offer their 
help; but their help consisted in specific or
general recommendations which the other
representatives were unwilling to entertain.
The German delegates virtually promised the
assistance of their empire, if the conference
would unite on some definite plan, and even
England was not altogether unwilling.
Italy, Austria and Russia, it is not unfair to 
assume, would have supported almost any
scheme on which France and the United 
States might have agreed, for these two governments
are the authors of the conference,
and they thought that they had the greatest
interest in its success. Yet for some reason
France and America failed to establish a
common basis of action. They wanted to do
something for silver; but they did not agree
as to what they would do. Hence they acted
independently, and failed to make that impression
which perfect harmony between
France and the United States could have
made and would have made. But they are 
hopelessly divided on what ought to be the
official relation between gold and silver, and
as far as known an agreement is not now
possible.
   This disagreement between France and 
America, the authors of the conference, had
its natural and legitimate effect upon the
other delegates. The latter did not find 
themselves confronted by a definite programmed
which they could have rejected,
modified or accepted. So they resorted to
the making of speeches, and finally each began
to tell what his country ought to do. In 
other words, as the conference advanced,
the lines of thought separated more and
more. The Russian delegate seems to have
reached the non plus ultra of isolation,
financially and intellectually. He wants
Russia to resume specie payments, by permitting
silver and gold to circulate, just as
if they circulated on official sufferance.
After resumption has been accomplished, he
wants silver to be the Russian standard, gold 
to command a premium, which will be fixed
by government in such a manner as to avoid
the minor fluctuations of the market. The
influence of a great government upon the
financial markets of its own country should
not be underrated; but it is wholly vain for
any government to regulate what lies beyond
its reach. The amount of silver and gold
in Russia does not depend upon the
government, but upon to economic activi-


Great Britain, although the latter does not
want for honorable illustrations of the possibility
of rising from the lowest ranks to
wealth and a high place in the esteem of
good men. He was the son of a Kidderminster
weaver, and obtained in his youth almost
no education. As a boy he peddled
rolls and cakes in streets, and afterwards
was a hawker of fruits and vegetables. Bred
to no trace he frequently changed his occupation,
and worked as he found opportunity
as baker, carpenter, shoe-
maker, blacksmith, house-painter, mender of
quill pens and weaver. He did not find his
life-work in any of there. Then he tramped 
to Birmingham, and there married his cousin,
although he had no means of supporting
himself. Next he engaged in making gilt
toys, and turned back from that to the business
of his boyhood, making and selling
cakes. Not long afterwards he, as miners
say, "struck a lead," which he followed to 
fortune. He had made the acquaintance of 
Harrison, the inventor of split rings, and
while walking with him one day Harrison
complained that the young men of the day
were afraid to work that soiled their hands.
Young Mason let him know that he was not
afraid of dirtying his to make an honest living,
and Harrison not only gave him work,
but took him into his confidence, and a year 
after turned over his business to him, for
which Mason paid out of the first year's 
profits. Harrison was a friend of the philos,
opher Priestly, and had made for him a
steel pen. Mason found some duplicated of
the pen, and thought he could make better.
He bought some of Perry's pens, which he 
discovered in a shop, and making some improved 
copies of them, he sent them to Mr.
Perry in London. This led to his beginning
the regular manufacture of the pens sold by
Mr. Perry, a business which grew to the dimensions 
already spoken of, and secured his
fortune
   While Mr. Mason was a shoemaker's apprentice
he taught himself to write; but
never ceased to lament the deficiencies of his
education. Childless himself, but a great
lover of children, his thoughts when he became
wealthy were given to schemes for
bettering the condition of poor children. In
1858 he quietly began the building of an
orphanage in the village of Erdington, laying
the corner-store with his own hands.
He personally superintended the whole work.
Eight years afterwards, when the building 
was completed at a cost of $300,000, he transferred
it, with and endowment of $1,000,000-
to seven trustees, reserving for himself the
position of bailiff of the trust during his
lifetime. This Erdington orphanage is open
to all orphan children without restriction of 
class, locality or creed, and in it 300 girls,
150 boys and 50 infants have a home and
education without cost. Like Girard he had
little respect for sectarian religion, and no
catechisms, formularies, or articles of faith
are allowed to be taught in it. It was for
the munificent charity that he receiver the
honor of knighthood.
   Another institution founded and endowed
by him may give him yet better title to the 
respect and long remembrance of the people
of Birmingham. This is the Mason Science
College, opened in October last, which has
strong corps of instructors already at work.
The special work of this college is to promote
thorough scientific education especially
adapted to the trade requirements of
that section of the kingdom. "mere literary
education and instruction," are well as all 
forms of theological teaching, are strictly
excluded, and clergymen may not become
its professors. The town council of Birmingham
elects five of the eleven trustees. The
building, costing $300,000, and a large endowment
were given by the founder. It is
believed that the institution is adapted to a 
very useful end, and will be carefully fostered
by the municipality.
   Such men build their own monument, and
it is impossible to cheat them of affectionate
remembrance when they are dead. No successes
make them ashamed or forgetful of
their humble origin, and their benevolent
effort to make the way to fortune and happiness
easier to those who come after them 
is a use of opportunity as wise as it is well-intentioned.
Sir Josiah Mason has enrolled
himself among the benefactors of mankind
who deserve honorable mention in every
land where industry, fidelity and natural nobility
are respected. The example of his
work and his deeds is full of encouragement
to others besides Britons. It is creditable to
England that her Queen accounts worthy of
knighthood tradesmen of enterprise and
charity as well as warriors, statesmen and
scholars.

            [FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.]
   LONDON, June 15, 1881.--The representative assemblies
which govern the diverse branches of
Scottish Presbyterians have concluded, as you 
know, their annual sessions in Edinburgh. They
have been more exciting and important than
usual, inasmuch that they have drawn attention
from people who are not Scots, who
live outside Scotland, and who are not enervated
or enslaved by its prejudices. Both 
the Established and the Free church parliaments
had to deal with cases that were embarrassing.
An Established church missionary,
who was sent for the Christianize and civilize the
native inhabitants of a region in Central Africa,
near the Free-church station of Livingstonia, has
been convicted of having recourse to peculiar
methods for the attainment of his end. It seems
that he assumed civil jurisdiction over the people
who were gained to attendance upon his ministrations,
that he role them by a tolerably free use
of the lash, and that he ordered one man who was
accused of a paltry theft (which it turned out he
did not commit) to be flogged so severely that he
died of the infliction. The facts are beyond dispute.
They were divulged in the first instance by
an unfriendly traveller, but they have been fully
substantiated by authoritative inquiries made at
the instance of the church herself. What has
been the upshot? The sanguinary preacher of
peace and good tidings is to be recalled; but his is
to retain his clerical standing, and to be eligible
for any home congregation that will accept his
services. His youth and inexperience were pleaded
in palliation of his offence; his rashness and lack
of judgment were bewailed; but his zeal and services
(especially as a translator of the Bible into
the native tongue) were eulogized, and the hope
expressed that a bright future is in store for him.
So the matter was huddled over as swiftly and
quietly as possible; but I shall be astonished if it
is not heard of in Parliament.
   The same policy of hushing up what
is disagreeable was followed in the case of
a volume of "Scotch Sermons" which appeared
about twelve months ago, edited by Professor 
Knight of St. Andrews. They contain sundry
specimens of very advanced Presbyterian
theology. There are thirteen contributors to the
book; and some of them leave far behind anything
contained in those "Essays and Reviews"
which created such a stir in the English church a
score of years since. Nevertheless, the assembly
has resolutely declined to look at them, except in
one instance which they could not avoid, because
it came up to them in regular form from the inferior
courts. The production specially inculpated
is of a person named Macfarlan, who has a school
near Glasgow. In it he set himself with unmistakable
sympathy to expound the views of
modern science and philosophy in respect of the
Bible and the Calvinistic creed. Of course he was
carrieed into utter dissonance with those doctrines,
a professed assent to which is the condition
upon which he hold his office, and draws
his salary. The Assembly could not get past this; 
and he was asked, time being given him to concoct
his reply, whether he figured as an advocate
or merely an expositor. Of course he said as an
expositor, and having added that he was sorry
for having caused misconception and anxiety; he
was let go with the warning to sin no more in the
like sort.
   This was a far easier method for getting out of
trouble than was open to the Free church, which
had also her heresy case, which may bear repeating.
Four years ago one of her professors, Mr. Robertson
Smith, a young man of eminent scholarship
and one of the Old Testament revisers, contributed
a series of articles to the Encyclopaedia Britanica,
in which, along with a very free handling of
the canticles of Solomon, he maintained that
much of the Mosaic legislation engrossed in the
Pentateuch was compacted and formulated at a
date much posterior to the time of the Hebrew
lawgiver, though in accordance with a literary
usage common among eastern peoples, what was
thus superinduced was allied with his precepts
and put forth in his name. Of course this was
flat heresy; the promulgation of such views
spread alarm among the rigidly orthodox; and
after much counsel arrangements were put in
train for having the opinions rebuked and disowned.
To this Mr. Smith was not disposed to
submit. He challenged a trial. He asked his assailants
to put their finger upon  one passage in
the confession of faith he had contravened. This 
they could not do--for that document, stringent
and stiff though it be on many points, is singularly
liberal, or, at least, indefinite as regards the
doctrine of inspiration. After much ado, an indictment
--a "libel" as it is called in ecclesiastical
terminology--was framed on the constructive
principle; the charge being, not that Professor
Smith had violated the confession, but had gone
against inferences plainly deducible from it. He
fought the matter point by point, showing an
adroitness of a lawyer, equal to his reputed
erudition as a linguist and divine. As a majority
of his Presbytery were with him, he had
much in his favor.
   the case, however, was a t length ripe for judgment.
It came before the Assembly of 1880 for
that purpose. Meantime the church was divided
into three parties over it. There were the friends
of the professor, who hold him up as a champion
of the truth, able to meet rationalists and sceptics
on their own ground, and to overthrow
them. There were his extreme opponents,
headed by Dr. Begg, and composed of the more
ignorant and bigoted of the provincial clergy, who
were keen for conviction and deposition; and
then a middle party, taking their cue from the
ablest man in the church, Dr. Rainey, who was
solicitous about two things,--to allay the feeling
which threatened to rend the church unless the
professor were silenced, and to avoid a judicial
decision, such as would commit the church to an
untenable position, and prejudice her future.
They wished, therefore, simply to pass a vote of
no confidence. Each of these parties were about
equally balanced. The friends of Mr. Smith put
into their motion an expression of regret at his rash
and unguarded utterances, and a proposal that
he should be admonished in respect of them. To
their own surprise, they were triumphant by a
very small majority, their opponents having refused
to coalesce. The professor was admonished
accordingly, and he accepted the rebuke in language
with which everybody was satisfied.
  The affair seemed at an end; but some months
later another encyclopaedia article appeared on
"Hebrew Language and Literature," in which the
old views were reiterated in a more positive manner,
and with more of trenchant force. The
hubbub thus caused was tremendous. Mr.

of the same, in the same manner as the
original report of the commission, was also
adopted. The committee have acted upon upward
of fifty of the total 223 chapters reported by the
commission.

                                     Boston, June 4, 1881.
R. M. Pulsifer, esq.:--
   Dear Sir,--The obstacles to a world's fair in Boston
will diminish according to the increase of our
determination to succeed. Hinderances, like
mountains, usually look highest at a distance.
Whatever serious embarrassments have been felt
where other such great fairs have been held, not
one of them had native Yankee wit and Boston
grit to make it go. We accept the sober advice
of Governor Rice and others, and with them
would adopt as our motto for the moment, festina
lente. But let us not listen to the command of
the ancient militia captain: "Company, advance
two steps backward." Boston is counted abler 
than other cities that are larger. Now is her opportunity
to prove it. Is it not evident that her
neighbor on the North river is ashamed of a failure
to have a world's fair, and slightly jealous of
the almost assured success that Boston is about to
achieve? My citizenship here covers but five years,
and this lightens the weight of my words. But if I
had the rights of birth and life-time resideuce
they would support my steadfast desire that this
scheme be carried to completion, for the sake of
what it will do for learning, art, commerce and
international comity. As to what my "class of
business" may subscribe I know not. Clergymen
usually keep one command of Christ: "Provide
neither gold nor silver nor brass in your
purses"! Nevertheless, the cordial favor they
would surely give might count for  something
considerable in the way of public sentiment!
Should life and residence with you last, I shall
count it not a duty bat a privilege to contribute
from my annual salary as much as I can spare,
until the fair is an accomplished fact. Not that
my hundreds will be noticed among your millions.
But for the satisfaction it will afford me
to see Boston succeed where New York failed;
and to know that the issue of the enterprise will
be beneficial to the entire world.
                                      Yours, sincerely,
                                                       J. L. WITHROW.

                PIANOS, MUSIC, ORGANS, ETC.
   It give me pleasure to state that our committee
are strongly in favor of the world's fair, and that
they will take, probably, $10,000 of the stock. We
have issued the enclosed circular to the music
trade, and hope for liberal additions to the above
in response thereto.
                                       Very truly yours,
                                                        HENRY MASON.

                                  FLORISTS.
   We take pleasure in expressing our interest and
co-operation in the project. We are willing to
subscribe, and will do all in our power, in connection
with the other representatives of our business,
to bring the fair to a successful inauguration.

   Those to whom the subject has been mentioned
look with favor upon the movement and will subscribe.
Manufacturers of our goods from other
States are pleased that it is talked of for Boston,
and will exhibit and subscribe. When it takes more
shape (that is, how funds are to be raised). I shall
see the gentlemen comprising the "hardware
committe" and inaugurate some vigorous action.

                                   SHIPPERS.
   We find the project of the "world's fair"meets
with general favor, and believe that a fair response
will be secured (when an appeal can be
definitely made) by owners and users of ships.

                              TOBABCO AND CIGARS.
   All those I have seen feel, like everybody else,
that the world's fair ought to be held in Boston,
and, as soon as a plan is adopted and the fair is
a fixed fact, they are as ready as any other
trade to take stock to any extent that would be 
reasonably expected.
                                               CHAS. W. WILDER.
   I am in favor of the project, and believe it will
be a grand success and of great and lasting benefit
to our city. It is impossible, however, for
me to state now the amount that would be subscribed
by those in my line of business; those in
it are not, as a rule, men of large means, but I
think when waited upon they will subscribe to
the fund as liberally as their means will admit.
                                                      CHARLES B. PERKINS.
   In furtherance of this enterprise, beneficial to
the country at large, the New England States
and this city, I shall exert myself to help to make
it a success, and I will contribute in accordance
with my means.                             N. SAMUELS.
                 WORKS OF ART, PICTURES, ETC.
   We are of the opinion that if the scheme of
issuing certificates of values subscribed are
issued, subscriptions can be more easily obtained.
We estimate that at least $25,000 can be raised in
our department should a world's fair be held.
            JOHN A. LOWELL, secretary of committee.
                                   CARPETS.
   In my canvass of the carpet trade I am pleased
to say I find a decidedly favorable feeling in favor
of the world's fair, and am confident that this
feeling will develop into liberal subscriptions to
the proposed stock. You will permit me to say I
heartily endorse the stock scheme, believing it to
be the most desirable manner of raising the necessary
capital to conduct this great undertaking.
The great desideratum now is competent, pushing,
practical business men to make a world's
fair for Boston in 1885 a great success.

                         WHOLESALE GROVERS.
   I think the grocers will subscribe about $35,000
to the capital stock of the World's fair, perhaps
this amount might be increased to $50,000; it
ought to be.                                  THOMAS DANA.
                      MEN'S FURNISHING GOODS.
   I cannot see how it can be otherwise than very
beneficial to all our business interests to have a
successful exhibition of the world's industries
held in Boston. If the men of sufficient executive
ability can be had, who are willing to devote the
time and labor necessary to carry to the end the
details of such a vast undertaking, I think the
required capital would be subscribed. The
former looks more difficult than the latter. As
regards the specific amount the class of business
of which I am a member would furnish, they

THE PROPOSED WORLD'S FAIR.
OPINIONS FROM SOME OF THE LEADING PROFESSIONS
AND TRADES, AS EMBODIED IN PRELIMINARY
LETTERS—ESTIMATES OF SUBSCRIPTIONS.
In advance of the meeting of the committee of
twenty eight some of the various sub-committees
have sent in preliminary letters giving an expression
of opinion as to the interest taken by the departments
of business which they represent. A
selection from these letters is given below as an
evidence of the popular feeling and hearty goodwill
with which this enterprise has been received
CLERGYMAN.
PARK-STREET CHURCH,
Boston, June 4, 1881
R. M. Pulsifer, esq.:—
Dear Sir,—The obstacles to a world's fair in Boston
will diminish according to the increase of our
determination to succeed. Hinderances, like
mountains, usually look highest at a distance.
Whatever serious embarrassments have been felt
where other such great fairs have been held, not
one of them had native Yankee wit and Boston
grit to make it go. We accept the sober advice
of Governor Rice and others, and with them
would adopt as out motto for the moment, festina
lente. But let us not listen to the command of
the ancient militia captain: "Company, advance
two steps backward." Boston is counted abler
than other cities that are larger. Now is her opportunity
to prove it. Is it not evident that her
neighbor on the North river is ashamed of a failure
to have a world's fair, and slightly jealous of
the almost assured success that Boston is about to
achieve? My citizenship her covers but five years,
and this lightens the weight of my words. But if I
had the rights of birth and life-time residence
they would support my steadfast desire that this
scheme be carried to completion, for the sake of
what it will do for learning, art, commerce and
international comity. As to what my "class of
business" may subscribe I know not. Clergymen
usually keep one command of Christ: "Provide
neither gold nor silver nor brass in your
purses"! Nevertheless, the cordial favor they
would surely give might count for something
considerable in the way of public sentiment!
Should life and residence with you last, I shall
count it not a duty but a privilege to contribute
from my annual salary as much as I can spare,
until the fair is an accomplished fact. Not that
my hundreds will be noticed among your millions.
But for the satisfaction it will afford me
to see Boston succeed where New York failed;
and to know that the issue of the enterprise will
be beneficial to the entire world.
Yours, sincerely,
J. L. WITHROW.
PIANOS, MUSIC, ORGANS, ETC.
It gives me pleasure to state that our committee
are strongly in favor of the world's fair, and that
they will take, probably, $10,000 of the stock. We
have issued the enclosed circular to the music
trade, and hope for liberal additions to the above
in response thereto.
Very truly yours,
HENRY MASON.
FLORISTS.
We take pleasure in expressing our interest and
co-operation in the project. We are willing to
subscribe, and will do all in our power, in connection
with the other representatives of our business,
to bring the fair to a successful inauguration.
GALVIN BROS.
HARDWARE.
Those to whom the subject has been mentioned
look with favor upon the movement and will subscribe.
Manufacturers of our goods from other
States are pleased that it is talked of for Boston,
and will exhibit and subscribe. When it takes more
shape (that is, how funds are to be raised), I shall
see the gentlemen comprising the "hardware
committee" and inaugurate some vigorous action.
C. H. BOLLES.
SHIPPERS.
We find the project of the "world's fair" meets
with general favor, and believe that a fair response
will be secured (when an appeal can be
definitely made) by owners and users of ships.
HENRY W. PEABODY.
TOBABCO AND CIGARS.
All those I have seen feel, like everybody else,
that the world's fair ought to be held in Boston,
and, as soon as a plan is adopted and the fair is
a fixed fact, they are as ready as any other
trade to take stock to any extent that would be
reasonably expected.
CHAS. W. WILDER.
I am in favor of the project, and believe it will
a grand success and of great and lasting benefit
to our city. It is impossible, however, for
me to state now the amount that would be subscribed
by those in my line of business; those in
it are not, as a rule, men of large means, but I
think when waited upon they will subscribe to
the fund as liberally as their means will admit.
CHARLES B. PERKINS.
In furtherance of this enterprise, beneficial to
the country at large, the New England States
and this city, I shall exert myself to help to make
it a success, and I will contribute in accordance
with my means.
N. SAMUELS.
WORKS OF ART, PICTURES, ETC.
We are of the opinion that if the scheme of
issuing certificates of values subscribed are
issued, subscriptions can be more easily obtained.
We estimate that at least $25,000 can be raised in
our department should a world's fair be held.
JOHN A. LOWELL, secretary of committee.
CARPETS.
In my canvass of the carpet trade I am pleased
to say I find a decidedly favorable feeling in favor
of the world's fair, and am confident that this
feeling will develop into liberal subscriptions to
the proposed stock. You will permit me to say I
heartily endorse the stock scheme, believing it to
be the most desirable manner of raising the necessary
capital to conduct this great undertaking.
The great desideratum now is competent, pushing,
practical business men to make a world's
fair for Boston in 1885 a great success.
IVERS W. ADAMS.
WHOLESALE GROCERS.
I think the grocers will subscribe about $35,000
to the capital stock of the World's fair, perhaps
this amount might be increased to $50,000; it
ought to be.
THOMAS DANA.
MEN'S FURNISHING GOODS.
I cannot see how it can be otherwise than very
beneficial to all out business interests to have a
successful exhibition of the world's industries
held in Boston. If the men of sufficient executive
ability can be had, who are willing to devote the
time and labor necessary to carry to the end the
details of such a vast undertaking, I think the
required capital would be subscribed. The
former looks more difficult than the latter. As
regards the specific amount the class of business
of which I am a member would furnish, they
would cheerfully contribute their pro rata in
comparison with other business and capital represented.
STEPHEN S. SIMONS.
Of all the merchants in our line whose opinion
I have asked, there is not one who has not expressed
himself as in favor of holding the fair at
the time designated. They believe it can be made
a success, financially and otherwise.
CHARLES WEIL.
RESTAURANTS.
Our committee are doing all they can, and will
be able in a week or ten days to make a report
which we think will prove satisfactory.
FURNITURE
If the capitalists of New England take hold of
the matter with the same interest and enthusiasm
that the various trades have shown its success is
assured. All with whom I have talked upon the
subject have in every case manifested warm
sympathy with the movement. As a furniture
manufacturer I have naturally more cognizance
of its branches than of any other, and feel safe in
saying that every manufacturer and [?]

The question before the international conference
at Paris is no longer whether the interests 
of business make it desirable to raise 
the price of silver by a syndicate of governments,
but whether the conference can arrive
at any tangible action at all. The several
representatives were willing to offer their 
help; but their help consisted in specific or 
general recommendations which the other
representatives were unwilling to entertain. 
The German delegates virtually promised the 
assistance of their empire, if the conference 
would unite on some definite plan, and even
England was not altogether unwilling. 
Italy, Austria and Russia, it is not unfair to 
assume, would have supported almost any
scheme on which France and the United 
States might have agreed, for these two governments
are the authors of the conference, 
and they thought that they had the greatest 
interest in its success. Yet for some reason
France and America failed to establish a
common basis of action. They wanted to do
something for silver; but they did not agree
as to what they would do. Hence they acted 
independently, and failed to make that impression
which perfect harmony between 
France and the United States could have
[?] and would have made. But they are
hopelessly divided on what ought to be the 
official relation between gold and silver, and 
as far as known an agreement is not now
 possible.

   This disagreement between France and 
America, the authors of the conference, had
its natural and legitimate effect upon the
other delegates. The latter did not find
themselves confronted by a definite programme
which they could have rejected,
modified or accepted. So they resorted to 
the making of speeches, and finally each began
to tell what his country ought to do. In
other words, as the conference advanced, 
the lines of thought separated more and 
more. The Russian delegate seems to have
reached the non plus ultra of isolation, 
financially and intellectually. He wants
Russia to resume specie payments, by permitting
silver and gold to circulate, just as 
it they circulated on official sufferance.
After resumption has been accomplished, he 
wants silver to be the Russian standard, gold
to command a premium, which will be fixed
by government in such a manner as to avoid
the minor fluctuations of the market. The
influence of a great government upon the
financial markets of its own country should
not be underrated; but it is wholly vain for
any government to regulate what lies beyond
its reach. The amount of silver and gold
in Russia does not depend upon the
government, but upon the economic activities
of the Russian people. And the value of 
gold and silver is not regulated in St. Petersburg,
but by the combined forces, material
and intellectual, which bear any relation to
the precious metals all over the globe. In
other words, the Russian delegate overrates
the power and authority of his government.
His imagination has carried him to a point
where the facts of the case are no longer
visible. He is in the clouds.

   The Austro-Hungarian government observes
a friendly reserve, the English government
an unfriendly reserve, and Germany
declares that it will protect itself, that the
ction of the conference will determine or
influence the policy of Germany, but that
the Berlin government is bound to consider
its own interests first.  The centrifugal
forces now at work in the conference are thus
apparent, and no person or power now known
can counteract them or transform them into
their opposite.  The conference has demonstrated
that it cannot co-operate, that it cannot
agree, that it has no recommendations
to offer which will be entertained by the
governments now represented at Paris.  Possibly
another conference might do better,
although it must be allowed the the friends
of silver count not have sent better advocates.
These advocates have tried hard to win
friends for their opinions, but they
have not succeeded.  The London Times,
therefore, returns once more to the
homely truths which commend themselves
for their simplicity. Governments,
the Times suggests, have very little to do
with the production, the supply, the value 
and the price of the precious metals. Governments
simply stamp them, and in stamping
them, no government creates values; it
simply indicates the quantity and quality of 
the coin, and makes the latter convenient for
current uses. The Times, however, seems
to understate the fact. governments are the
leading business corporations of the world
and these have very much to do with the
supply of the precious metals and with their
value. Hence if the governments united on
a common policy as regards silver, the latter
might cease being the metal which it is today.
But the fact is that the governments
do no agree, and this is the one thing demonstrated
by the Paris conference. It need
not encourage the monometallists, and it
need not discourage the [?imetallists]; but it

to all orphan children without restriction of
class, locality or creed, and in it 300 tirls,
150 boys and 50 infants have a home and
education without cost. Like Girard he had
little respect for sectarian religion, and no
catechisms, formularies, or articles of faith
are allowed to be taught in it. It was for
this munificent charity that he received the
honor of knighthood.
   Another institution founded and endowed
by him may give him a yet better title to the
respect and long remembrance of the people
of Birmingham. This is the Mason Science
College, opened in October last, which has
a strong corps of instructors already at work.
The special work of this college is to promote
thorough scientific education especially
adapted to the trade requirements of
that section of the kingdom. "Mere literary
"education and instruction," as well as all
forms of theological teaching, are strictly
excluded, and clergymen may not become
its professors. The town council of Birmingham
elects five of the eleven trustees. The
building, costing $300,000, and a large endowment
were given by the founder. It is
believed that the institution is adapted to a
very useful end, and will be carefully fostered
by the municipality.
   Such men build their own monument, and
it is impossible to cheat them of affectionate
remembrance when they are dead. No successes
make them ashamed or forgetful of
their humble origin, and their benevolent
effort to make the way to fortune and happiness
easier to those who come after them
is a use of opportunity as wise as it is well-intentioned.
Sir Josiah Mason has enrolled
himself among the benefactors of mankind
who deserve honorable mention in every
land where industry, fidelity and natural nobility
are respected. The example of his
work and his deeds is full of encouragement
to others besides Britons. It is creditable to
England that her Queen accounts worthy of
knighthood tradesmen of enterprise and
charity as well as warriors, statesmen and
scholars.
                   ---------------------------------
   Volume XXXII., No. 835 of the Nation is
the last publication of that weekly newspaper
as an independent and distinct journal
having an individual character. Henceforth,
although retaining the old name it will be,
in fact, the weekly edition of  the New York
Evening Post, and "its contents will, in the
"main, have appeared in the Evening Post."
It is to be enlarged from 18 to 24 pages,
with three instead of two columns to the
page. The announcement is made that
"its political and literary standards will remain
unchanged," which means that the
writers who have given the Nation its character
and tone will hereafter write for the
Evening Post. This consolidation is the
natural result of Mr. Godkin's acquisition of
an interest in the Evening Post, and, in a
business view, it is easy to see the advantages
of it. It has been generally understood
that the Nation, after a long
struggle, became a self-supporting, and,
perhaps, a moderately remunerative
property. The transfer of its subscription
list to the Evening Post gives
that journal a desirable introduction to a
new and extended constituency, and if
the subscribers and advertisers continue
their patronage the receipts of the
two journals will continue at slight
augmentation of the cost of one. The
Nation was a pioneer in this country, but it
has never had the success it might have
achieved, owing to the fact that it has been,
with all its ability, notably arrogant, bitter,
cynical, and sometimes malignant in its
temper. It set itself up as the philosopher
of the American press, but its philosophy
was dipped in gall; and its contempt for the
judgment and honesty of those who differed
from it has been manifested much as Senator
Conkling has been in the habit of doing. If
in its new phase of existence it gets rid of
its supercilious tone, and of its cant of independence,
--being in fact no more independent
than journals it despises; as blind to the
faults of the leaders of its party as any
"organ" among its contemporaries, and
capable upon occasion of outdoing them all
in disingenuous imputation of base motives
when honest ones lie on the surface,--if it
gets rid of these vices of journalism, which
the Evening Post has never yet exhibited in 
anything like the same degree, it will be
vastly improved. On the other hand, if the
Evening Post is to become a daily Nation
such as the Nation was in the particulars
mentioned, there is no occasion to congratulate
anybody.
                    -----------------------------
   the Burgtheater at Vienna has decided to
place the Antigone of Sophocles among its
regular pieces, and, if possible, to add to it
some other ancient dramas. The plays will 
be brought out in German translations. The
costumes, the scenery and the accessories
are not to be archaeologically correct, the

   This was a far easier method for getting out of
trouble than was open to the Free church, which
had also her heresy case, which may bear repeating.
Four years ago one of her professors, Mr. Robertson
Smith, a young man of eminent scholarship
and one of the Old Testament revisers, contributed
a series of articles to the Encyclopaedia Britannica,
in which, along with a very free handling of
the canticles of Solomon, he maintained that
much of the Mosaic legislation engrossed in the
Pentateuch was compacted and formulated at a
date much posterior to the time of the Hebrew
lawgiver, though in accordance with a literary
usage common among eastern peoples, what was
thus superinduced was allied with his precepts
and put forth in his name. Of course this was
flat heresy; the promulgation of such views
spread alarm among the rigidly orthodox; and
after much counsel arrangements were put in
train for having the opinions rebuked and disowned.
To this Mr. Smith was not disposed to
submit. He challenged a trial. He asked his assailants
to put their finger upon one passage in
the confession of faith he had contravened. this
they could not do--for that document, stringent
and stiff though it be on many points, is singularly
liberal, or, at least, indefinite as regards the
doctrine of inspiration. After much ado, an indictment
--a "libel" as it is called in ecclesiastical
terminology--was framed on the constructive
principle; the charge being, not that Professor
Smith had violated the confession, but had gone
against inferences plainly deducible from it. He
fought the matter point by point, showing an
adroitness as a lawyer, equal to his reputed
erudition as a linguist and divine. As a majority
of his own Presbytery were with him, he had
much in his favor.
   The case, however, was at length ripe for judgment.
It came before the Assembly of 1880 for
that purpose. Meantime the church was divided
into three parties over it. There were the friends
of the professor, who hold him up as a champion
of the truth, able to meet rationalists and sceptics
on their own ground, and to overthrow
them. There were his extreme opponents,
headed by Dr. Begg, and composed of the more
ignorant and bigoted of the provincial clergy, who
were keen for conviction and deposition; and
then a middle party, taking their cue from the
ablest man in the church, Dr. Rainey, who was
solicitous about two things,--to allay the feeling
which threatened to rend the church unless the
professor were silenced, and to avoid a judicial
decision, such as would commit the church to an
untenable position, and prejudice her future.
They wished, therefore, simply to pass a vot3e of
no confidence. Each of these parties were about
equally balanced. The friends of Mr. Smith put
into their motion an expression of regret at his rash
and unguarded utterances, and a proposal that
he should be admonished in respect of them. to
their own surprise, they were triumphant by a
very small majority, their opponents having refused
to coalesce. The professor was admonished
accordingly, and he accepted the rebuke in language
with which everybody was satisfied.
   The affair seemed at an end; but some months
later another encyclopaedia article appeared on
"Hebrew Language and Literature," in which the
old views were reiterated in a more positive manner,
and with more of trenchant force. The
hubbub thus caused was tremendous. Mr.
Smith explained that the article was
out of his hands long before the
decision in his case, and that he would not have
written it after; but at the same time he claimed
a full right to do so had he chosen. A special
meeting of the Assembly, convened as a committee
of the whole house, suspended him from
office; and now Dr. Rainey's rejected motion of
last year has been carried by a sweeping majority,
and his ejection from the place of a teacher,--
though not as a member and minister of the
church has been decreed,--his salary being
continued to him meanwhile because
of the abruptness of the dismissal,
says the motion, but to evade any legal demand
for restitution, say others.
   The excitement within the body has been very
great. Many of the most influential ministers
and laymen in the church condemn the proceeding.
Dr. Rainey has been made the mark for
much obloquy as having betrayed his own convictions
at the dictate of expediency, and set a precedent
of high-handed administration which may
bear evil consequences. At first there was much
talk of a large secession; but that has died away
Some few quiet-loving folks, afflicted by the din
and strife, may fly to the Established church as a
haven of rest; but the prevalent feeling is rather.
"Let us wait on, persuaded that in no long time,
what has now been condemned, will not only be
tolerated, but triumphant."     J. M. D,

                         NOTES ON NEW BOOKS.
   Emma Lazarus has translated some of Heine's
songs and ballads, and it does not go against her
that she has failed in preserving or reproducing
the exquisite lightness of Heine's touches. English
syllables at the best are too heavy to do the 
graceful work of Heine's syllables, which present
all shades from a strong monosyllabic word to the
merest suggestion of a spiritualized transition
vowel. As much is true of the accents. And in
Heine's verses there is fine harmony between the
outward form and the thoughts which they contain
or intimate. A perfect translation of Heine
is as difficult as is the description of colors or
melodies or a breeze. Those, however, who cannot
read Heine in the original, will find this new
translation convenient, and it has the additional
merit of giving fair selections, together with a
sketch of Heine's life.
   James Freeman Clarke's "Self-Culture," issued
six months ago, has reached its sixth edition.
   Victor Hugo's new book, "Les Quatre Vents de

two volumes, the first containing "Le Livre
Satirique" and "Le Livre Dramatique," and the
second "Le Livre Lyrique" and "Le Livre

   J. R. Osgood & Co. will publish in a few days
three stories by W. D. Howells, namely, A fearful
Responsibility, At the Sign of the Savage,
and Tonelli's Marriage. The volume, of course,

with general favor, and believe that a fair response
will be secured (when an appeal can be
definitely made) by owners and users of ships.

   All those I have seen feel, like everybody else,
that the world's fair ought to be held in Boston,
and, as soon as a plan is adopted and the fair is
a fixed fact, they are as ready as any other
trade to take stock to any extent that would be
reasonably expected.

   I am in favor of the project, and believe it will
be a grand success and of great and lasting benefit
to our city. It is impossible, however, for
me to state now the amount that would be subscribed
by those in my line of business; those in
it are not, as a rule, men of large means, but I
think when waited upon they will subscribe to
the fund as liberally as their means will admit.

   In furtherance of this enterprise, beneficial to
the country at large, the New England States
and this city, I shall exert myself to help to make
it a success, and I will contribute in accordance
with my means.                              N. SAMUELS.

   We are of the opinion that if the scheme of
issuing certificates of values subscribed are
issued, subscriptions can be more easily obtained.
We estimate that at least $25,000 can be raised in
our department should a world's fair be held.

   In my canvass of the carpet trade I am pleased
to say I find a decidedly favorable feeling in favor
of the world's fair, and am confident that this
feeling will develop into liberal subscriptions to
the proposed stock. You will permit me to say I
heartily endorse the stock scheme, believing it to
be the most desirable manner of raising the necessary
capital to conduct this great undertaking.
The great desideratum now is competent, pushing,
practical business men to make a world's
fair for Boston in 1885 a great success.

   I think the grocers will subscribe about $35,000
to the capital stock of the World's fair, perhaps

                      MEN'S FURNISHING GOODS.
   I cannot see how it can be otherwise than very
beneficial to all our business interests to have a
successful exhibition of the world's industries
held in Boston. If the men of sufficient executive
ability can be had, who are willing to devote the
time and labor necessary to carry to the end the
details of such a vast undertaking, I think the
required capital would be subscribed. The
former looks more difficult than the latter. As
regards the specific amount the class of business
of which I am a member would furnish, they
would cheerfully contribute their pro rata in
comparison with other business and capital represented.

   Of all the merchants in our line whose opinion
I have asked, there is not one who has not expressed
himself as in favor of holding the fair at
the time designated. They believe it can be made
a success, financially and otherwise.

be able in a week or ten days to make a report
which we think will prove satisfactory.
                                FURNITURE
   If the capitalists of New England take hold of
the matter with the same interest and enthusiasm
that the various trades have shown its success is
assured. All with whom I have talked upon the
subject have in every case manifested warm
sympathy with the movement. As a furniture
manufacturer I have naturally more cognizance
of its branches than of any other, and feel safe in
saying that every manufacturer and nearly every
dealer throughout New England will give the fair
their hearty cooperation.               C. R. KEELER.

SHIPPERS.
   We find the project of the "world's fair" meets 
with general favor, and believe that a fair response 
will be secured (when an appeal can be 
definitely made) by owners and users of ships. 
                                                                                                               HENRY W. PEABODY.
TOBABCO AND CIGARS.
   All those I have seen feel, like everybody else, 
that the world's fair ought to be held in Boston, 
and, as soon as a plan is adopted and the fair is 
a fixed fact, they are as ready as any other 
trade to take stock to any extent that would be 
reasonably expected.
                                                                                                                 CHAS. W. WILDER.
   I am in favor of the project, and believe it will 
be a grand success and of great lasting benefit 
to our city. It is impossible, however, for 
me to state now the amount that would be subscribed 
by those in my line of business; those in 
it are not, as a rule, men of large means, but I 
think when waited upon they will subscribe to 
the fund as liberally as their means will admit. 
                                                                                                              CHARLES B. PERKINS.
  In furtherance of this enterprise, beneficial to 
the country at large, the New England States 
and this city, I shall exert myself to help to make 
it a success, and I will contribute in accordance 
with my means.
                                                                                                                           N. SAMUELS.
 WORKS OF ART, PICTURES, ETC.
   We are of the opinion that if the scheme of 
issuing certificates of values subscribed are 
issued, subscriptions can be more easily obtained. 
We estimate that at least $25,000 can be raised in 
our department should a world's fair be held.
JOHN A. LOWELL, secretary of committee.

CARPETS.
   In my canvass of the carpet trade I am pleased 
to say I find a decidedly favorable feeling in favor 
of the world's fair, and am confident that this 
feeling will develop into liberal subscriptions to 
the proposed stock. You will permit me to say I 
heartily endorse the stock scheme, believing it to 
be the more desirable manner of raising the necessary 
capital to conduct this great undertaking. 
The great desideratum now is competent, pushing, 
practical business men to make a world's 
fair for Boston in 1885 a great success.
                                                                                                                       IVERS W. ADAMS.
WHOLESALE GROCERS.
   I think the grocers will subscribe about $35,000 
to the capital stock of the World's fair, perhaps 
this amount might be increased to $50,000; it 
ought to be.     THOMAS DANA.

MEN'S FURNISHING GOODS.
   I cannot see how it can be otherwise than very 
beneficial to all our business interests to have a 
successful exhibition of the world's industries 
held in Boston. It the men of sufficient executive 
ability can be had, who are willing to devote the 
time and labor necessary to carry to the end the 
details of such a vast undertaking, I think the 
required capital would be subscribed. The 
former looks more difficult than the latter. As 
regards the specific amount the class of business 
of which I am a member would furnish, they 
would cheerfully contribute their pro rata in 
comparison with other business and capital represented.  
                                                                                                                      STEPHEN S. SIMONS.
   Of all the merchants in our line whose opinion 
I have asked, there is not one who has not expressed 
himself as in favor of holding the fair at 
the time designated. They believe it can be made 
a success, financially and otherwise.
                                                                                                                      CHARLES WEIL.
RESTAURANTS.
   Our committee are doing all they can, and will 
be able in a week or ten days to make a report 
which we think will prove satisfactory.

FURNITURE
   If the capitalists of New England take hold of 
the matter with the same interest and enthusiasm 
that the various trades have shown its success is 
assured. All with whom I have talked upon the 
subject have in every case manifested warm 
sympathy with the movement. As a furniture 
manufacturer, I have naturally more cognizance 
of its branches than of any other, and feel safe in 
saying that every manufacturer and nearly every 
dealer throughout New England will give the fair 
their hearty cooperation.                                                                         C. R. KEELER.

         THURSDAY EVENING, June 30, 1881.
   The money market is steady, with a firmer feeling
among the banks, but rates on general business
are practically unaltered. At the clearing
house, however, the rate to borrowing banks went
up to 3 1/2 @ 1 1/2 per cent, although most of the transactions
were at 3 per cent. The advance was occasioned
by one of the large banks losing heavily
and calling in its loans, although indirectly the
necessary accumulation of money for the payment 
of the July dividends restricts the amount

last fall, is speedily to go into operation.
No preliminary meetings have as yet been held,
and of course no definite conclusion has been arrived
at as to its board of management. All the

   Messrs Winslow, Lanier & Co have placed on
the market for popular subscription $2,500,000
Chicago, St Louis and New Orleans Railroad 5 per
cent 70 year gold bonds at 107 1/2 and interest, reserving
the right to advance the price without notice.
This loan was authorized by the stockholders
of the company for the purpose of reducing
interest charges and consolidating existing debts
without increasing the same. the mortgage covers
the franchise and entire property of the company,
and also any road that my hereafter be
constructed or any property that may be required,
and has been pronounced by eminent lawyers,
to whose critical examination it has been
submitted, as in every sense a "bondholders'
mortgage," so fully and unusually are their rights
protected. The earnings of the line have all been
expended on the property for several years, although
the operations of the road have shown
sufficient net income to pay dividends upon the
stock. The line is of great importance to the Illinois
Central, giving that road a through connection
with New Orleans.

   Judge Bockes at Saratoga has confirmed the report 
of J L Barbour, referee in the suit to foreclose
the mortgage on the Adirondack Railway.
The amount due is $9.763,666. The sale is to take
place September 15, at Saratoga. There are included
with the road about 700,000 acres of land in
3000 parcels in the counties of Hamilton, Warren,
Essex, Franklin, St Lawrence, Herkimer and Saratoga.
The Adirondack road extends from Saratoga 
northward some 60 miles, and after its foeclosure
sale there is but little doubt but what it
will be extended still further northward to the St
Lawrence river at Ogdensburg.

                  A NEW LINE IN MEXICO.
   Major De Gress and J. Mastella Clarke, editor
of the Two Republics, of Mexico, arrived in New
York yesterday by the steamship City of Alexandria.
Major De Gress, who served in the Union
army during the civil war, and is now one of the
largest merchants in Mexico, recently received a
concession from the Mexican government for a
railroad from the American frontier to the City
of Mexico and the Pacific coast. The line and its
branches will connect with Laredo, Victoria,
Tampico, San Luis, Tuxpam and the City of Mexico;
with a lateral line to some point on the Pacific
coast. The road is to traverse the temperate
region lying between the coast and the table
lands of Mexico, and will connect at the United
States frontier with the International and Great
Northern Railroad. The concession granted Major
De Gress has been obtained in the interest of
Jay Gould and his associates. The subvention,
amounting to about $12,800 a mile, is to be paid
from four per cent of the customs receipts. A
guarantee of $50,000 has been deposited in Mexico.
It is provided that the road shall be completed
within five years; the surveys have already 
begun.--[New York Tribune.

New York; A A Talmage, T J Porter and F B
Drake, of St Louis; John L Webster and J E
House, of Omaha. The board of directors elected
the following-named officers: A A Talmage
president, T J Porter vice-president, and F B
Drake secretary and treasurer.

                HANNIBAL AND ST JOSEPH.
    A dividend of 3 1/2 per cent will probably be declared
today on the preferred stock of Hannibal
and St Joseph. The figures stand: Earnings
January 1, 1881, to June 1, as reported, $817,863;
estimating June earnings at $170,000, would give
for the six months $987,863; the fixed charges
would be about $327,000; add expenses same as
last year, $625,385 total $952,385; leaves toward
a dividend, $35,478. The fixed charges for the
next sixty days will require about $330,000, and
for the dividend $177,905 will be needed, a total
of over $500,000, which will make a very heavy
draft upon the company's surplus and the proceeds
from the sale of bonds. But the company's
showing cannot be as favorable as the above figures
show, for the expenses of the first half of
this year very largely exceeded those of 1880,
without making account of the damages resulting
from the recent accident, which cannot be less
than $75,000.--[N. Y. Graphic.

NEW YORK, WEST SHORE AND BUFFALO.
   For the New York, West Shore and Buffalo
Railroad Company's bonds a subscription was
offered to private individuals last week, and the
whole amount ($15,000,000) was taken at once.
Seven millions additional have since been offered
to the company, but it has not decided to accept
such a sum. The subscription, together with the
cash in hand and the other available subscriptions,
makes an aggregate amount of over $35,000,000
for building this trunk line. The bonds
bear 5 per cent interest and were taken at par; 10
per cent is payable July 1. The work of construction
is going forward rapidly, the right of
way between New York and Syracuse are substantially
obtained, and the location is fixed upon
for even a greater distance.

                   KANSAS CORPORATIONS.
   TOPEKA, KAN., June 27, 1881.--The Charter of
the Kansas Valley Railway Improvement Company
has been filed with the secretary of state,
with the following named gentlemen as incorporators:
C F Morse and Wallace Pratt, of
Jackson county, Mo.; Ira Harris, M E Jones and
George D Donelly, of Wyandotte county, Kan.
The county through which the road is to run is
Wyandotte, and the estimated length of the railway
from the beginning, at the state line, at
Nineteenth street, Kansas City, to the terminus
at Argentine, is twelve miles. The majority of
the directors elected for the first year reside in
Boston, Mass.
   The Kansas Northwestern Railway Company
has also been incorporated. The object of this
company is to construct and maintain a line of
railway and telegraph from Clyde, Kan, to Burr
Oak, Kan, via the towns of Belleville and White
Rock, or as near as may be practicable; also a
line from Belleville to Hubbell, Neb. The estimated
length of this road is ninety-five miles. Also
the White Tomichi and Shavans Gold and Silver
Mining Company of Hutchinson, Kan. The directors
for the first year are: J L Pinney, J W
Kanoga, J McCulloch, A J Higby, John Welch,
R M Easley, J A Grayson, R A Campbell and D W
Stennell. Capital stock, $100,000. Also the Caldwell
Milling and Elevator Company. Directors:
W N Hubbell, Ed Greenwell, William Wykes,
Mike Meager, George H Anthony, H M Donaldson
and R W Herrington. Capital stock, $25,000.

                                 NOTES.
   The Atlantic and Pacific first mortgage sinking-fund
gold bonds, issued at the rate of $25,000 per
mile on the Western Division of the road, extend-
from Albuquerque to the Pacific coast in California,
bear interest at the rate of 6 per cent per
annum, and are due July 1, 1910. The land grant
of the company amounts to about 42,000,000 acres,
patents for the proportionate part of which are
issued by the government on the completion of 
each section of twenty-five miles of road. The
bonds are receivable at par and interest in payment
of lands, and the company will purchase
them at 110 and interest, and when they can be obtained,
with the proceeds of land sales, but they
cannot be called for redemption prior to the date
of maturity. Interest is guaranteed by the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe and the St Louis and
San Francisco Railway companies to the extent of
25 per cent of their respective gross earnings,
upon all business received from, or delivered to,
said Western Division during the six months ending
on the first days of October and April preceding
the due-dates of the coupons. These bonds
were taken by Messrs Winslow, Lanier & Co, J
& W Seligman & Co, and Kidder, Peabody & Co.
The income bonds rank next to the first mortgage
bonds, and have been sold to a considerable extent
recently at 40 per cent, to be delivered as
soon as they are issued.

                         WOOL AND WOOLLENS.
ANOTHER ACTIVE WEEK--TOTAL SALES OF 2,678,288
   LBS--A DECREASE OF ABOUT 200,000 LBS
   OVER THE PREVIOUS WEEK--LARGE EXPORT
   MOVEMENT IN SOLE LEATHER--SALES OF 30,000
   SIDES BY ONE DEALER--OTHER MERCHANDISE
   MOVEMENTS.
   The wool market, reviewed in detail elsewhere,
has been fairly active, the sales footing up 2,678,,288
lbs, against 2,881,523 lbs last week, or a decrease
of about 200,000 lbs, most of which is in
foreign wool. A large business has been done in
California spring, of which the sales foot up over
800,000 lbs, and also in Territory wools, of which
the sales have been over 600,000 lbs. The transactions
in pulled wools, and in Michigan and Wisconsin,
have, on the other hand, been much
smaller than a week a ago. The markets in the
interior are generally strong, and so high that
there is no margin to buy out there to bring 
on here to sell. Woollen goods are firm, except
some lots of heavy goods, which are being closed
out from first hands. The clothiers have about
finished cutting heavy goods. Manufacturers
have commenced upon their samples of light
goods, and are sending such into the commission
houses. They are also buying sample bales of
wool for such work. There has been quite a movement
in Buffalo sole leather for export, and one
Boston dealer has sold during the past three days
30,000 sides in cabled orders from Liverpool
Stocks there are light, and prices are higher
There has also been an improved demand
from manufacturers here, but
no large orders are looked for
until after the holidays. A lot of 18,000 Buenos
Ayres hides has been sold in New York at 24c, but
part of the same cargo was stored, the price not
being considered high enough. A Boston tanner
has bought 10,000 Buenos Ayres kips in New York
on private terms. The Liverpool market continues
strong, and offers for a cargo now in New
York have been cabled, and the hides may yet go
there. The market is well supplied with fruit just
now, and novelties, so to speak, are appearing 
daily. The raspberries and blackberries are not
yet particularly good. Some California
plums appeared today, and there were
peaches and huckleberries. Strawberries
were in ample supply and very cheap, at no time
in the season has the price, in view of the quality,
been more in favor of the buyer. There are some
green apples in the market, but they are not
wanted. A Scarcity of cucumbers prevails, and
the price has advance $3 per 100 during the
week. Old potatoes, as the new stock is received,
are neglected, and the price has weakened all
through the week. The scarcity which has prevailed
of late in veal was broken today by a full
supply, and the price dropped from 1 to 2 cents
per lb. Beef in spite of this maintained full
prices, although the demand was light. Lamb
and mutton are in full supply. The export demand
for pork products has been active, and the
steamers this week will carry out some fair
shipments. The supply of truck is generally
light, and the Norfolk boat will reach the market
in good season, but for the fact that so many are
going away that the local consumption will be
reduced. The wool stores will be generally open 
on Saturday, as usual, as the receipts of new wool
are so heavy at this time that it must be taken
care of. The receipts this week of domestic wool
foot up 17,362 bales, against 12,853 bales last week.
Of foreign, however, the receipts have been light
or 119 bales, against 1176 bales last week.
Flour is quiet and firm, with corn and oats dull
and very flat. Sugar is quiet and steady, with
molasses inactive and cotton dull. At Liverpool,
future cotton closed firm, at an advance on some
months, and spot continues steady and unchanged.
Spot cotton in New York advanced
1-16c, and futures 4@6 decimal points. At Chicago,
wheat closed 1/2c advance. Pork, at the same market,
closed nominally unchanged, and lard advanced
5@7 1/2c. The Milwaukee wheat market closed dull
at a slight decline in prices. Wheat and corn
closed dull at Toledo, and oats nominal, while
corn and oats closed firm at Peoria. At New York
corn closed quiet and oats firmer, and at Baltimore
wheat closed easy and corn steady.

                       WOOL AND WOOLLENS.
   The total receipts of wool at this port during the past
week comprise 17,362 bales domestic and 119 foreign,
against 5959 bales domestic and 228 foreign for the same
time last year. The total receipts since January 1, 1881,
comprise 128,614 bales domestic and 12,163 bales foreign,
against 129,877 bales domestic and 78,643 bales foreign for
the corresponding period of 1880.
   The sales for the week comprise 2,487,088 lbs of domestic
fleece and pulle3d and 191,200 lbs of foreign, making
the week's transactions foot up 2,678,288 lbs against 2,584,523 
lbs and 2,722,108 lbs for the two previous weeks' transactions.
   The sales, as collected from the several houses and given
in detail below, show a decrease of about 200,000 lbs, most
of which is in foreign wool, the decrease of that being
137,000 lbs. The sales of domestic have been about 68,000
lbs less than last week, the total being 2,487,088 lbs,
against 2,555,723 lbs last week. There has been a marked
decrease in the sales of pulled wool, amounting to 230,000 
lbs, and in Michigan and Wisconsin of 99,067 lbs. Other
decreases have been in Ohio and Pennsylvania of 98,000
lbs, in unwashed and unmerchantable of 80,000 lbs, and
in California fall of 80,000 lbs. The increases in the sales
have been in Texas, Territory, &c, of 273,000 lbs, in
California spring of 264,000 lbs, and in combing and delaine
of 73,000 lbs. In foreign, the decrease in the business
has been in Montevideo, amounting to nearly 100,000 lbs.
   The sales of the week although nearly as large as a
week ago, within two hundred thousand pounds, do not
show that the market has been quite so generally active,
some large lots of California helping to swell the total.
The inquiry, we are inclined to think, has not been so general,
although many sample bags have been taken which
may mean sales at a future day. Many manufacturers
are preparing samples of light goods, hence the demand
for sample bags, so that the wool before before being parchased
in any large quantity can be tested. It is noticeable,
also, that buyers do not take hold at the ruling
prices as though they expected to make a profit on the

at $6.50@7.75, and spring wheat do at $6.62 1/2@8 00 per bbl,
Cornmeal is steady, with a fair trade at $2.05@2 75 per
bbl. Rye flour is quiet, with sales oat % 75@6 00 per bbl,
whole oatmeal is firm at $4 50@5 75 per bbl for fine, and
$6 25@6 75 for coarse.
   CORN continues dull and inactive, with no sales and no
demand, although holders are more firm today, and prices
are nominally the same. We quote old high mixed at
60c per bush; steamer yellow at 59 1/2c; steamer mixed at
59c. and good no grade at 52@57c.
   OATS are in no demand and very dull and flat, although
prices are more firm today, in sympathy with the
better tone of the Western markets. Buyers are holding
back, seemingly thinking to save a few days' interest
on their money by making their purchases after the
Fourth; but from the stronger feeling in the West it looks
as if they would have to pay the difference in the price of
goods. We quote No 1 white at 47 1/2@48c per bush; No
2 white at 44 1/2c, No 3 white at 43c, and No2 mixed at
43c. Extra white will command 49@56c.
   BRAN is dull and inactive, with little doing and prices
nominally the same. We quote spring wheat at [$14 5?]
per ton, while winter wheat will command $15.50. Feed
is steady at $17 and middlings at $17@19 per ton.

higher at 11 1/2@113/4c per lb in tierces; 11 1/2@12c in 10-lb
pails; 12@12 1/4 in 5-lb pails, and 12 1/2c in 3-lb pails.
Smoked hams are quiet at 10 1/2@11c for large and 10@
11 1/2c for small; canvassed hams 11@12c; breakfast bacon
11 1/2@12c; smoked shoulders 8@8 1/2c, and smoked

at 6@8c. Lambs are lower and in fully supply;
Rivers at 14@15c per lb. and common at 7@13c. Veal
is in much better supply and is lower; Eastern or Northern
at 8@9c per lb; Worcester county at 9@10c; common

                                      PRODUCE.

24c, latter for selections; Western do at 17@18c; grass-ladle

Raspberries, blackberries, currants, huckleberries and
peaches are in the market, but are as yet being sold in too
small quantities to make a reliable quotation. The blackberries
and raspberries are not good as yet. Cherries

in good demand. Imported fruit is scarce, particularly
Valencia oranges, which are at $10@12, and Palermos

bunch; radishes are at 40c per doz. There are no cranberries 
in the market.
   POTATOES continue in good demand for new stock,
but old is so much the more neglected, and the price is
weak at 50@80c, although some extra choice early rose
would bring a better price. We quote Norfolks at $2 25@
2 50 per bbl, and do culls are at 50c@$1 25 per bbl. Bermudas

says: The cotton goods market has presented pretty
much the same general features notes in last report.
Operations on the part of package buyers continue light,

cottons, cotton flannels, &e, are moving steadily ou
account of back orders, which absorb to a great extent
the current production of leading mills. Prices are without
quotable change and firm at ruling rates.

RAILROAD MATTERS
ADIRONACK RAILROAD
Judge Bockes at Saratoga has confirmed the report
of J L Barbour, referee in the suit to foreclose 
the mortgage on the Adirondack Railway
The amount due is $9,763,666. The sale is to take
place September 15, at Saratoga. There are included
with the road about 700,000 acres of land in
3000 parcels in the counties of Hamilton, Warren, 
Essex, Franklin, St Lawrence, Herkimer and Saratoga.
The Adirondack road extends from Saratoga
northward some 60 miles, and after its foreclosure
sale there is but little doubt but what it
will be extended still further northward to St
Lawrence river at Ogdensburg.
A NEW LINE IN MEXICO
Major De Gress and J. Mastella Clarke, editor
of the Two Republics, of Mexico, arrived in New
York yesterday by the steamship City of Alexandria.
Major De Gress, who served in the Union
army during the civil war, and is now one of the 
largest merchants in Mexico, recently received a 
concession from the Mexican government for a
railroad from the American frontier to the City
of Mexico and the Pacific coast, The line and its
branches will connect with Laredo, Victoria, 
Tampico, San Luis, Tuxpam, and the City of Mexico;
with a lateral line to some point on the Pacific
coast. The road is to traverse the temperate 
region lying between the coast and the table 
lands of Mexico, and will connect at the United
States frontier with the International and Great
Northern Railroad. The concession granted Major
De Gress has been obtained in the interest of
Jay Gould and his associates. The subvention, 
amounting to about $12,800 a mile, is to be paid
from four per cent of the customs receipts. A
guarantee of $50,000 has been deposited in Mexico. 
It is provided that the road shall be 
completed within five year; the surveys have already 
begun. — [New York Tribune.
THE TRUNK LINE POOL.
NEW YORK, June 30, 1881. — It was announced in 
Wall street this morning that the Vanderbilt
roads had withdrawn from the Trunk line pool,

COMMERCIAL RECORD
STATE OF TRADE.

WOOL AND WOOLLENS.

ANOTHER ACTIVE WEEK - TOTAL SALES OF 2,678,288 LBS. - A DECREASE OF ABOUT
200,000 LBS. OVER THE PREVIOUS WEEK - LARGE EXPORT MOVEMENT IN SOLE LEATHER-
SALES OF 30,000 SIDES BY ONE DEALER- OTHER MERCHANDISE MOVEMENTS.
    The wool marked, reviewed in detail elsewhere has been fairly active, the sales footing
up 2,678,288 lbs. against 2,881,523 lbs last week, or a decrease of about 200,000 lbs. most
of which is in foreign wool.  A large business has been done in California spring, of which
the sales foot up over 800,000 lbs. and also in Territory wools, of which the sales have
been over 600,000 lbs.  The transactions in pulled wools, and in Michigan and Wisconsin,
have, on the other hand, been much smaller than a week ago.  The markets in the interior
are generally strong, and so high that there is no margin to buy out there to bring on her
to sell.  Woollen goods are firm, except some lots of heavy goods, which are being closed
out from first hands.  The clothiers have about finished cutting heavy goods.  Manufacturers
have commenced upon their samples of light goods, and are sending such into the commission
houses.  They are also buying sample bales of wool for such work.  There has been quite a
movement in Buffalo sole leather for export, and one Boston dealer has sold during the past
three days 30,000 sides in cabled orders from Liverpool Stocks there are light, and prices are
higher.  there has also been an improved demand from manufacturers here, but  to large
orders are looked for until after the holidays.  A lot of 18,000 Buenos Ayres hides has been
sold in New York at 21c, but part of the same cargo was stored, the price not being considered
high enough.  A Boston tanner has bought 10,000 Buenos Ayres kips in New York on private
terms.  The Liverpool market continues strong, and offers for a cargo now in New York have
been cabled, and the hides may yet go there.  The market is well supplied with fruit just now,
and novelties, so to speak, are appearing daily.  The raspberries and blackberries are not
yet particularly good.  Some California plums appeared today, and there were peaches
and huckleberries.  Strawberries were in ample supply and very cheap, at no time in the
season has the price, in view of the quality, been more in favor of the buyer.  There are some
green apples in the market, but they are not wanted.  A scarcity of cucumbers prevails, and
the price has advanced $3 per 100 during the week.  Old potatoes, as the new stock is
received, are neglected, and the price has weakened all through the week.  The scarcity 
which has prevailed of late in veal was broken today by a full supply, and the price dropped
from 1 to 2 cents per lb.  Beef in spite of this maintained full prices, although the demand was
light.  Lamb and mutton are in full supply.  The export demand for pork products has been
active, and the steamers this week will carry out some fair shipments.  The supply of truck is
generally light, and the Norfolk boat will reach the market in good season, but for the fact
that so many are going away that the local consumption will be reduced.  The wool stores will
be generally open on Saturday, as usual, as the receipts of new wool are so heavy at this time
that it must be taken care of.  The receipts this week of domestic wool foot up 17,362 bales,
against 12,853 bales last week.  Of foreign, however, the receipts have been light or 199 bales,
against 1176 bales last week.  Flour is quiet and firm, with corn and oats dull and very flat.
Sugar is quiet and steady, with molasses inactive and cotton dull. At Liverpool, future cotton
closed firm, at an advance on some months, and spot continues steady and unchanged.  Spot
cotton in New York advanced 1-16c and futures 4 @ 6 decimal points.  At Chicago, wheat closed
1/2c lower, and corn 7/8c up with oats 1/2c advance.  Pork, at the same market, closed nominally
unchanged, and lard advanced  (?) @ 7 1/2c.  The Milwaukee wheat market closed dull at a slight
decline in prices.  Wheat and corn closed dull at Toledo, and oats nominal, while corn and oats
closed firm at Peoria.  At New York corn closed quiet and oats firmer, and a Baltimore wheat closed
easy and corn steady.

BOSTON MARKETS
WOOL AND WOOLLENS.

   The total receipts of wool at this port during the past week comprise 17,362 bales domestic and
119 foreign, against 5959 bales domestic and 228 foreign for the same time last year.  The total
receipts since January 1, 1881, comprise 128,614 bales domestic and 12,163 bales foreign, against
129,877 bales domestic and 78,643 bales foreign for the corresponding period of 1880.
   The sales for the week comprise 2,487,088 lbs of domestic fleece and pulled and 191,200
lbs of foreign, making the week's transactions foot up 2,678,288 lbs against 2,884,523 lbs and 2,722,108
lbs for the two previous weeks' transactions.
    The sales, as collected from the several houses and given in detail below, show a decrease of about
200,000 lbs, most of which is in foreign wool, the decrease of that being 137,000 lbs. The sales of domestic
have been about (?) less than last week, the total being 2,487,088 lbs. against 2,555,723 lbs last week.  There
has been a marked decrease in the sales of pulled wool, amounting to 239,000 lbs., and in Michigan and
Wisconsin of  99,067 lbs. Other decreases have been in Ohio and Pennsylvania of 98,000 lbs., in unwashed
and unmerchantable of 80,000 lbs, and in California fall of 80,000 lbs.  The increase in the sales have been
in Texas, Territory, &c., of 273,000 lbs in California spring of 264,000 lbs. and in combing and (?) of 73,000 lbs.
In foreign, the decrease in the business has been in Montevideo, amounting to nearly 100,000 lbs.
    The sales of the week although nearly as large as a week ago, within two hundred thousand pounds, do not
show that the market has been quite so generally active, some large lots of California helping to swell the total.
The inquiry, we are inclined to think, has not been so general, although sample bags have been taken which
may mean sales at a future day.  Many manufacturers are preparing samples of light goods, hence the demand
for sample bags, so that the wool before before being  purchased in any large quantity can he tested.  It is
noticeable, also, that buyers do not take hold at the ruling prices as though they expected to make a profit on the

THURSDAY EVENING, June 30, 1881.
The money market is steady, with a firmer feeling among the banks, but rates on general business are practically unaltered. At the clearing house, however, the ra[?]e to borrowing banks went up to 3 1/2 @ 1 1/2 per cent. The advance was occasioned by one of the large banks losing heavily and calling in its loans, although indirectly the necessary accumulation of money for the payment of the July dividends restricts the amount offering.
But over ten millions are to be disbursed in this city in a few days, and although it may take some little time to get it into circulation, yet there is no
apparent reason why loanable funds should become at all scarce for the next few weeks.  The bank loan, of course is very high, but scarcely higher than the last deposits justify, and the banks still show a goodly excess of reserve above the legal requirements.  Some of the banks are beginning to anticipate another call from the Comptroller, and to be ready for it may pursue a very conservative course until it comes, so that they may not be caught with a short reserve, but with all the money there is to come upon the market it will be hard to bring about anything like stringency.
    In the general market there is a fair amount of business doing, the banks discounting freely at from 4 to 4 1/2@5 per cent, some of them doing nothing today under 4 1/2 per cent.  In prime corporation paper there is no advance in rates to be noted.  The best borrowers will not pay over 3 per cent, and at this rate they find a demand for their paper from one source or another.  Call loans rule at 3 1/2 to 4 per cent.  New York funds are still rather heavy at a discount of 30 to 40 cents on $1000.  The gross exchange today were $16,060,205, and the balances $2,404,051.  The exchanges for the month were the largest ever known in the history of the clearing-house, being $398,204,483 against $232, 308,635 last June, or about 165 millions gain.
   Foreign exchange was quoted as follows: Bankers' sterling sight, 4.86, do, 60 days, 4.84.  Commercial bills, 60 days, 4.82.  Francs, bankers' 60 days, 5.20 5/8 @ 5.21 7/8; do sight (?) Reichsmarks, sight (?) do 60 days, 94 5/8 @94 1/2.
    Government bonds are firm and generally a shade higher.  The variations at the close will be seen by comparing the following, which were the latest bidding prices of yesterday and to-day:-

(?) (?)

    The Boston stock market is generally stead and quiet, but a few stocks are still active and advancing.
    Bell Telephone,which closed with a sale at 163 yesterday, advanced to 171@170 today, and closed at 170 bid, 171 asked.
At the rate of advance of the last two or three days it will not take long to reach the even 200 which was predicted.
    Flint and Pere Marquette is going up, advancing  today from 37 3/4 to 39 5/8@ 1/4, and the preferred from 104 to 105.
The sales were quite heavy.
   Chicago, Burlington and Quincy which has been much neglected of late, advanced 1 to 164.  It has a very conservative
class of stockholders, and whenever its value is not properly appreciated very little stock comes out.  There were only 28
shares sold today.
   New York and New England advanced 1 to 81.  This road labors under the disadvantage of being a  home road which does
not pay dividends.  The dividend paying roads, however, find it no disadvantage to be "at home," as the quotations to Boston and
Albany, Boston and Maine,Boston and Providence and others demonstrate.
   Boston and Providence sold at 170, 172 and (?)  (?)
stock.  The line is of great importance to the Illinois Central, giving that road a through connection with New Orleans.

DIVIDENDS.
   The Great Barrington Maheiwe Bank has declared a 5 per cent semi-annual dividend.
   The Boston Suspender Company has declared a dividend of 1 per cent on the preferred stock, payable July 18; also a
semi-annual dividend of 3 per cent on the common stock, payable Aug 22.
   The Chapman Valve Manufacturing Company has declared a dividend of 5 per cent, payable on demand.
   The Boston and Colorado Smelting Company has declared dividend No. 46 of 2 1/2 per cent, payable July 1.
    The Beverly Marine Insurance Company has declared a dividend of 5 per cent, payable July 1.


NEW YORK, WEST SHORE AND BUFFALO.
   For the New York, West Shore and Buffalo Railroad Company's bonds a subscription was offered to private individuals
last week, and the whole amount ($15,000,000) was taken at once.  Seven millions additional have since been offered
to the company, but it has not decided to accept such a sum.  The subscription, together with the cash in hand and the
other available subscriptions, makes an aggregate amount of over $35,000,000 for building this trunk line.  The bonds
bear 5 per cent interest and were taken at par; 10 per cent is payable July 1.  The work of construction is going forward
rapidly, the right of way between New York and Syracuse are substantially obtained, and the location is fixed upon for
even a greater distance.

KANSAS CORPORATIONS
TOPEKA, KAN., June 27, 1881. - The charter of the Kansas Valley Railway Improvement Company has been filed with the
secretary of state, with the following named gentlemen as incorporators:  CF Morse and Wallace Pratt, of Jackson county, Mo,;
Ira Harris, M.E. Jones and George D. Donelly, of Wyandotte county, Kan.  The county through which the road is to run is
Wyandotte and the estimated length of the railway from the beginning at the state line, at Nineteenth street, Kansas City, to 
the terminus at Argentina is twelve miles.  The majority of the directors  elected for the first year reside in Boston, Mass.
   The Kansas Northwestern Railway Company has also been incorporated.  The object of this company is to construct and 
maintain a line of railway and telegraph from Clyde, Kan, to Burr Oak, Kan, via the towns of Belleville and White Rock, or as
near as may be practicable; also a line from Belleville to Hubbell, Neb. The estimated length of this road is ninety-five miles.
Also the White Tomichi and Shavans Gold and Silver Mining Company of Hutchinson, Kan. The directors for the first year
are: J L Pinney, J W Kanoga, J McCulloch, A J Higby, John Welch, R M Easley,  J A Grayson, R A Campbell and D W Stennell.
Capital stock $100,000.   Also the Caldwell Milling and Elevator Company.  Directors: W N Hubbell, Ed Greenwell, William
Wykes, Mike Meagor, George H Anthony, H M Donaldson and R W Herrington. Capital stock $25,000.

NOTES.
   The Atlantic and Pacific first mortgage sinking fund gold bonds, issued at the rate of $25,000 per mile on the Western
Division of the road, extend from Albuquerque to the Pacific coast in California, bear interest at the rate of 6 per cent 
per annum, and are due July 1, 1910.  The land grant of the company amounts to about 42,000,000 acres, patents for
the proportionate part of which are issued by the government on the completion of each section of twenty-five miles
of road.  The bonds are receivable at par and interest in payment of lands, and the company will purchase them at
110 and interest, when they can be obtained, with the proceeds of land sales, but they cannot be called for redemption
prior to the date of maturity.  Interest is guaranteed by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and the St. Louis and San 
Francisco Railway companies to the extent of 25 percent of their respective gross earnings, upon all business received
from, or delivered to, and Western Division during the six months ending on the first days of October and April preceding

prices, although the demand was light.  Lamb and mutton are in full supply. The export demand for pork products has been active,
and the steamers this week will carry out some fair shipments.  The supply of truck is generally light, and the Norfolk boat will reach
the market in good season, but for the fact that so many are going away that the local consumption will be reduced.  The wool stores
will be generally open on Saturday, as usual, as the receipts of new wool are so heavy at this time that it must be taken care of.
The receipts this week of domestic wool foot up bales, against 12,853 bales last week.  Of foreign, however, the receipts have been
light or 119 bales, against 1176 bales last week.  Flour is quiet and firm, with corn and oats dull and very flat.  Sugar is quiet and
steady, with molasses inactive and cotton dull.  At Liverpool, future cotton closed firm, at an advance on some months, and spot
continues steady and unchanged. Spot cotton in New York advanced 1-16c and futures 4 @6 decimal points.  At Chicago, wheat
closed 1/2c lower, and corn 7/8 c up, with oats 1/2c advance.  Pork, at the same market, closed nominally unchanged, and lard
advanced 5@7 1/2c.  The Milwaukee wheat market closed dull st a slight decline in prices. Wheat and corn closed dull at Toledo,
and oats nominal, while corn and oats closed firm at Peoria.  At New York corn closed quiet and oats firmer, and at Baltimore
wheat closed easy and corn steady.

 WOOL AND WOOLLENS.
   The total receipts of wool at this port during the past week comprise 17,362 bales domestic and 119 foreign, against 5959 bales
domestic and 228 foreign for the same time last year. The total receipts since January 1, 1881, comprise 128,614 bales domestic
and 12,163 bales foreign,against 129,877 bales domestic and 78,643 bales foreign for the corresponding period of 1880.
   The sales for the week comprise 2,487,088 lbs of domestic fleece and pulled and 191,200 lbs of foreign, making the week's
transactions foot up 2,678,288 lbs against 2,884,523 lbs and 2,722,108 lbs for the two previous weeks' transactions.
    The sales, as collected from the several houses and given in detail below, show a decrease of about 200.000 lbs., most 
of which is in foreign wool, the decrease of that being 137,000 lbs.  The sales of domestic have been about(?)(?) less than last
week, the total being 2,487,083 lbs against 2,555,723 lbs last week.  There have been a marked decrease in the sales of  pulled
wool, amounting to 239,000 lbs and in Michigan and Wisconsin of 99,067 lbs.  Other decreases have been in Ohio and Pennsylvania
of (?) lbs, in unwashed and unmerchantable of 80,000 lbs., and in California fall of 80,000 lbs.  The increases in the sales have
been in Texas, Territory, &c. of 273,000 lbs. in California spring of 264,000 lbs and in combing and (?) of 73,000 lbs.  In foreign,
the decrease in the business has been in Montevideo, amounting to nearly 100,000 lbs.
    The sales of the week although nearly as large as a week ago, within two hundred thousand pounds, do not show that the market
has been quite so  generally active, some large lots of California helping to swell the total.  The inquiry, we are inclined to think, has
not been so general, although many sample bags have been taken which may mean sales at a future day.  Many manufacturers
are preparing sample of light goods, hence the demand for sample bags, so that the wool before being purchased any large 
quantity can be tested.  It is noticable, also, that buyers do not take hold at the ruling (?) (??)
purchase by the wool advancing, but as though they might be able to buy cheaper at a later day.   It is considered by the more
conservative that the country markets are unwarrantably high, discounting any improvements that the dealer should have after
purchasing wool.  Some choice Ohio has been sold in the interior at 49 cents, and this would be, with expenses added 45 cents in
store here, which, at ruling prices, would be without profit in some places in Michigan good wool can still be bought at 25 cents,
while at Washington, Pa., the buyers were paying 40 cents, but they have since held back.  There has been some excitement
in Texas, and some extra choice lots there have been sold as high as (?) but this is an extreme price.  In California the full
prices are sustained, and  (?) and Humboldt are at 32 1/2 @33c in San Francisco.  The new wool houses will have to keep open on 
Saturday to receive it, and pay drafts which are now quite heavy upon them.  Combing and (?) fleeces are scarce, and sale have
been made at full prices.  The highest paid for spring California this week is 36c but all choice wool is in demand.  Stocks of fleeces
are generally believed to be reduced, and, as old wool is given the preference, prices rule strong while the new wool is coming
forward.  Stocks of pulled wool are also believed to be light ,as the sale for some weeks of this description have been large, although
this week they were small.  The tone of the London market continues strong, with an advance of 5 per cent in choice Australian,
which is quite scarce there, and orders to buy sent from here have not been filled.  Still the Australian wool now being sold in 
London is paying a loss to the Australian shippers from 1 @2d per lb.  The new clip will not open in Australia for four months yet, but
without it opens as much less than a year ago, it could not be imported direct to this market according to the present outlook.
    The woolen goods market is quiet and between seasons.  The clothing manufacturers have very generally purchased all the heavy
woolens they want, but the jobbing (?) are still distributing these goods.  Some manufacturers are behind in their orders for heavy
goods, and others are preparing their samples of light goods, the commission houses receiving such now almost daily. Stocks of
fall goods now with commission houses are very light, but to reduce them they have made concessions. The rush for flannels has
entirely subsided, but prices are firm and stocks light.  There are many who look for an advance in these goods.  Blankets continue
well  (?) up, and the demand has rather improved at strong prices.  New price lists have been issued by the carpet manufacturing
companies.  The tone of all woollen goods, under the influence of the advance of (?) cents a pound in wool, has greatly improved,
and many buyers who have been hesitating, hoping to see lower prices, have contracted for their supplies.   Collections are easy.

have been in Texas, Territory, &e, of 273,000 lbs. in 
California spring of 264,000 lbs, and in combing and delaine 
of 78,000 lbs. In foreign, the decrease in the business 
has been on Montevideo, amounting to nearly 100,000 lbs.
   The sales of the week although nearly as large as a 
week ago, within two hundred thousand pounds, do not 
show that the market has been quite so generally active, 
some large lots of California helping to swell the total. 
The inquiry, we are inclined to think, has not been to general, 
although many sample bags have been taken which 
may mean sales in a future day. Many manufacturers 
are preparing samples of light goods, hence the demand 
for sample bags, so that the wool before before being purchased 
in any large quantity can be tested. It is noticeable, 
also, that buyers do not take hold at the ruling 
prices as though they expected to make a profit on the 
purchase by the wool advancing, but as though they 
might be able to buy cheaper at a later day. It is considered 
by the more conservative that the country markets 
are unwarrantably high, discounting any improvements 
that the dealer should have after purchasing wool. 
Some choice Ohio has been sold in the interior at 40 cents, 
and this would be, with expenses added, 45 cents in store 
here, which, at ruling prices, would be without profit. 
In some places in Michigan good wool can still be 
bought at 25 cents, while at Washington, Pa,, the buyers 
were paying 40 cents, but they have since held 
back. There has been some excitement in Texas, 
and some extra choice lots there have 
been sold as high as 28 1/2e, but this is an extreme price. In 
California the full prices are sustained, and Mendocino 
and Humboldt are at 32 1/2 @ 33e in San Francisco. The 
new wool is now coming forward very freely, so that 
the wool houses will have to keep open on Saturday to 
receive it, and pay drafts which are now quite heavy 
upon them. Combing and delaine fleeces are scarce, and 
sales have been made at full prices. The highest paid 
for spring California this week is 36e, but all 
choice wool is in demand. Stocks of fleeces 
are generally believed to be reduced, and, as 
old wool is given the preference, prices rule 
strong while the new wool is coming forward. Stocks 
of pulled wool are also believed to be light, as the sale for 
some weeks of this description have been large, although 
this week they were small. The tone of the London market 
continues strong, with an advance of 5 per cent in 
choice Australian, which is quite scarce there, and orders 
to buy sent from here have not been filled. Still the Australian
wool now being sold in London is paying a loss to 
the Australian shippers of from 1@3d per lb. The new 
clip will not open in Australia for four months yet, but, 
without it opens at much less than a year ago, it could 
not be imported direct to this market according to the 
percent outlook.
   The woollen goods market is quiet and between seasons. The Clothing manufactures have very generally purchases all the heavy wollens they want, but the jobbing houses are still distributing these goods. Some manufactures are behind in their orders for heavy goods, and others are preparing their samples of light goods, the commission houses receiving such now almost daily. Stocks of fall goods now with commission houses are very light, but to reduce them they have made concessions. The rush for flannels has entirely subsided, but prices are firm and stocks are light. There are many who look for an advance in these goods. Blankets continue well sold up, and the demand has rather improved at strong prices. New prices lists have been issued by the carpet manufacturing companies. The tone of all woollen goods, under the influence of the advance of 4@5 cents a pound in wool, had greatly improved, and many buyers who have been hesitating, hoping to see lower prices, have contracted for their supplies, Collections are easy,

1881.

it may take some little time to get it into circulation, 
yet there is no apparent reason why loanable 
funds should become at all scare for the next 
few weeks. The bank loan, of cource, is very 
high, but scarcely higher than the large deposits 
justify, and the banks still show a goodly excess 
of reserve above the legal requirement. Some of 
the banks are beginning to anticipate another 
call from the Comptroller, and to be ready for it 
may pursue a very conservative course until it 
comes, so that they may not be caught with a 
short reserve, but with all the money there is to 
come upon the market it will be hard to bring 
about anything like stringency. 
   In the general market there is a fair amount of 
business doing, the banks discounting freely at 
from 4 to 4 1/2@5 per cent, some of them doing 
nothing today under 4 1/2 per cent. In prime corporation 
paper there is no advance in rates to be 
noteo. The best borrowers will not pay over 3 
per cent, and at this rate they find a demand for 
their paper from one source or another. Call 
loans rule at 3 1/2 to 4 percent. New York funds 
are still rather heavy at a discount of 30 to 40 
cents on $1000. The gross exchanges today were 
$16,060,205, and the balances $2,404,051. The exchanges 
for the month were the largest ever
known in the history of the cleaning-house, being
$398,204,483, against $232,398,635 last June, or
about 165 millions gain.
   Foreign exchange was quoted as follows: Bankers'
sterling, sight, 4.86; do, 60 days,4.84. Commercial
bills, 60 days, 4.82. Francs, bankers' 
60 days, 5.20 5/8 @ 5.21 7/8; do sight 5,18 1/8@ 5.19 3/8
Reichmarks, sight 951/8@95 1/4; do 60 days,  94 5/8 @ 94 1/2.
   Government bonds are firm and generally a shade higher.
The variations at the close will be seen by comparing the 
following, which were the latest bidding prices of yesterday
and to day:-

   The Boston stock market is generally steady
and quiet, but few stocks are still active and advancing.
   Bell Telephone, which closed with a sale at 163
yesterday, advanced to 171 @ 170 today, and closed
at 170 bid, 171 asked. At the rate of advance of the
last two or three days it will not take long to 
reach the even 200 which was predicted.
   Flint and Pere Marquette is going up, advancing
today from 37 3/4 to 39 5/8 @ 1/(?) and the preferred 
from 104 to 105. The sales were quite heavy.
    Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, which has been
much neglected of late, advanced 1 to 164. It
has a very conservative class of stockholders, and
whenever its value is not properly appreciated
very little stock comes out. There were only 28
shares sold today.
    New York and New England advanced 1 to 81.
This road labors under the disadvantage of being
a home road which does not pay dividends. The
dividend-paying roads, however, find it no disadvantage
to be "at home," as the quotations for
Boston and Albany, Boston and Maine, Boston
and Providence, and other demonstrate.
    Boston and Providence sold at 170, 172 and 171;
Boston and Maine at 165; Maine Central at 50;
Northern at 109 3/4 @ 110, and Eastern at 51 1/2. Rutland

Union Pacific from 129 to 129 1/8; Sonora blocks (No

Wisconsin Central declined 1/8 to 28 7/8; Atchison 1/8

109.  Atchison guaranteed 7s declined  1/2 to [12?];
Wisconsin Central 2ds declined 1 to 58.  Other 
bonds sold at previous quotations.
    In mining shares the transactions in Calumet
and Hecia shows that it has not yet lost all its 
friends, although it did go down to 201.Yesterday 
it advanced to 216, and today it improved to
229@228, which was bid at the close, 230 being
asked. Empire advanced 7 1/2c to 72 1/2c; Sycamore
Spring 3/8 to 1 1/2;  Pewabic 1/2 to 10 1/2; Franklin [1/?]

might be able to buy cheaper at a later day. It is considered 
by the more conservative that the country markets
are unwarrantably high, discounting any improvements
that the dealer should have after purchasing wool.
Some choice Ohio has been sold in the interior at 40 cents,
and this would be, with expenses added, 45 cents in store
here, which, at ruling prices, would be without profit.
In some places in Michigan good wool can still be
bought at 35 cents, while at Washington, Pa., the buyers
were paying 40 cents, but they have since held
back. There has been some excitement in Texas,
and some extra choice lots there have
been sold as high as 28 1/2c, but this is an extreme price. In
California the full prices are sustained, and Mendocino
and Humboldt are at 32 1/2 @ 33c in San Francisco. The
new wool is now coming forward very freely, so that
the wool houses will have to keep open on Saturday to
receive it, and pay drafts which are not quite heavy
upon them. Combing and delaine fleeces are scarce, and
sales have been made at full prices. The highest paid
for spring California this week is 36c, but all
choice wool is in demand. Stocks of fleeces
are generally believed to be reduced, and, as
old wool is given the preference, prices rule
strong while the new wool is coming forward. Stocks
of pulled wool are also believed to be light , as the sales for
some weeks of this description have been large, although
this week they were small. The tone of the London market
continues strong, with an advance of 5 per cent in
choice Australian, which is quite scarce there, and orders
to buy sent from here have not been filled. Still the Australian 
wool now being sold in London is paying a loss to
the Australian shippers of from 1@2d per lb. The new
clip will not open in Australia for four months yet, but,
without it opens at much less than a year ago, it could
not be imported direct to this market according to the
present outlook.
   The woollen goods market is quiet and between seasons.
The clothing manufacturers have very generally purchased
all the heavy woolens they want, but the jobbing
houses are still distributing these goods. Some manufacturers
are behind in their orders for heavy goods, and
others are preparing their samples of light goods, the
commission houses receiving such now almost daily.
Stocks of fall goods now with commission houses are very
light, but to reduce them they have made concessions.
The rush for flannels has entirely subsided, but prices
are firm and stocks light. There are many who look for
an advance in these goods. Blankets continue well sold
up, and the demand has rather improved at strong prices.
New price lists have been issued by the carper manufacturing
companies. The tone of all woollen goods, under
the influence of the advance of 4@5 cents a pound in
wool, has greatly improved, and many buyers who have 
been hesitating, hoping to see lower prices, have contracted
for their supplies. Collections are easy.

                                    FREIGHTS
   NEW YORK, June 29, 1881--[From the Maritime Register]
--With diminishing supplies of tonnage available
here and at the near-by ports for early use, and a more
active inquiry, especially from the grain and petroleum
interests, from the grain trade to an important extent in
the local market on through freight account, and from
the petroleum trade in great part for late summer clearance,
rates have generally shown a hardening tendency;
on vessels of average carrying capacity for grain having
improved slightly, closing quite firmly. A good demand
has been reported for tonnage for lumber, coal, ice and
general cargo, and owners and agents have been more
confident in their views. From most other source a limited
call has been noted at somewhat irregular figures.
The berth freight movement has been fairly active, and
also indicative of increased firmness. The notable reaction
from extreme speculative buovancy in grain, chiefly
under the influence of much more favorable crop accounts,
foreign and domestic, has tended to stimulate
shipments, and thus to the advantage of the carrying interest.
The past week's exports hence to European ports
included 700 bbls and 34,304 sacks flour, 938,200 bush wheat,
1,101,300 bush corn, 24,500 bush rye, 1123 tierces and bbls
pork, 1288 pkgs beef, 10,155 boxes bacon, 2130 tierces and
6756 smaller pkgs lard, 12,982 pkgs butter, 135,000 boxes
cheese, 13 0 pkgs tallow, 18,259 pkgs oil cake, 5233 bales
cotton, 942 hhds tobacco, 249 bales hops, and 13,545 sides
leather. The aggregate supply of wheat in sight is given at
about 16,441,300 bush, and of corn about 11,783,900 bush,
(showing for the week a falling off in the wheat footing of
779,250 bush and an increase in that of corn of about
261,650 bush), against about 15,550,196 bush wheat and
about 17,564,077 bush corn at the corresponding date the
preceding year. The stock of wheat in store at the port
of New York is now up to 1,986,000 bush, against 1,867,750
bush the preceding week. The stock of corn in store
here is 864,850 bush, against 769,800 bush a week ago. The
aggregate of grain in store here is now 3,811,000 bush,
against 3,108,050 bush a week earlier, and 2,589,0 0 bush
at this date last year, and 3,4 2,450 bush at the corresponding
date in 1879. The total exports of wheat from
the Atlantic ports during the past week were about 2,011,200
bush, of which about 1,386,850 bush to the United


close of business on 15th instant.

sidered by the more conservative that the country markets
are unwarrantably high, discounting any improvements
that the dealer should have after purchasing wool.
Some choice Ohio has been sold in the interior at 40 cents,
and this would be, with expenses added, 45 cents in store 
here, which, at ruling prices, would be without profit.
In some places in Michigan good wool can still be 
bought at 25 cents, while at Washington, Pa., the buyers
were paying 40 cents, but they have since held
back. There has been some excitement in Texas,
and some extra choice lots there have 
been sold as high as 28 1/2c, but this is an extreme price. In 
California the full prices are sustained, and Mendocino 
and Humboldt are at 32 1/2 @ 33c in San Francisco. The 
new wool is now coming forward very freely, so that
the wool houses will have to keep open on Saturday to
receive it, and pay drafts which are now quite heavy
upon them. Combing and delaine fleeces are scarce, and
sales have been made at full prices. The highest paid
for spring California this week is 36c. but all
choice wool is in demand. Stocks of fleeces
are generally believed to be reduced, and, as
old wool is given the preference, prices rule
strong while the new wool is coming forward. Stocks
of pulled wool are also believed to be light, as the sales for
some weeks of this description have been large, although
this week they were small. The tone of the London market 
continues strong, with an advance of 5 per cent in
choice Australian, which is quite scarce there, and orders
to buy sent from here have not been filled. Still the Australian 
wool now being sold in London is paying a loss to
the Australian shippers from 1@?d per lb. The new
clip will not open in Australia for four months yet, but,
without it opens at much less than a year ago, it could
not be imported direct to this market according to the
present outlook.
     The woollen goods market is quiet and between seasons.
The clothing manufacturers have very generally purchased 
all the heavy woolens they want, but the jobbing
houses are still distributing these goods. Some manufacturers 
are behind their orders for heavy goods, and
others are preparing their samples of light goods, the
commission houses receiving such now almost daily.
Stocks of fall goods now with commission houses are very
light, but to reduce them they have made concessions.
The rush for flannels has entirely subsided, but prices
are firm and stocks light. There are many who look for
an advance in these goods. Blankets continue well sold
up, and the demand has rather improved at strong prices.
New price lists have been issued by the carpet manufacturing 
companies. The tone of all woollen goods, under
the influence of the advance of 4@5 cents a pound in
wool, has greatly improved, and many buyers who have
been hesitating, hoping to see lower prices, have contracted 
for their supplies. Collections are easy.

FREIGHTS.
NEW YORK, June 29, 1881 - From the Maritime Register:-
With diminishing supplies of tonnage available 
here and at the new-by ports for early use, and a more 
active inquiry, especially from the grain and petroleum 
interests, from the grain trade to an important extent in 
the local market on through freight account, and from 
the petroleum trade in great part for late summer clearance, 
rates have generally shown a hardening tendency; 
on vessels of average carrying capacity for grain having 
improved slightly, closing quite firmly.  A good demand 
has been reported for tonnage for lumber, coal, ice and 
general cargo, and owners and agents have been more 
confident in their views.  From most other sources a limited 
call has been noted at somewhat irregular figures.  
The berth freight movement has been fairly active, and 
also indicative of increased firmness.  The notable reaction 
from extreme speculative buoyancy in grain, chiefly 
under the influence of much more favorable crop accounts, 
foreign and domestic, has tended to stimulate 
shipments, and thus to the advantage of the carrying interest.  
The past week's exports hence to European ports 
included 700 bbls an 34,204 sacks flour, 938,200 bush wheat, 
1,101,300 bush corn, 24,500 bush rye.  1123 tierces and bbls 
pork, 1288 pkgs beef, 10,155 boxes bacon, 2130 tierces and 
6756 smaller pkgs lard, 12,981 pkgs butter, 135,000 boxes 
cheese, 13[?]0 pkgs tallow, 18,259 pkgs oil cake, 5233 bales 
cotton, 542 hhds tobacco, 249 bales hops, and 13,545 sides 
leather.  The aggregate supply of wheat in sight is given at 
about 16,441,300 bush, and of corn about 11,783,960 bush, 
(showing for the week a falling off in the wheat footing of 
779,250 bush and an increase in that of corn of about 
261,650 bush), against about 15,550,196 bush wheat and 
about 17,564,077 bush corn at the corresponding date the 
preceding year.  The stock of wheat in store at the port 
of New York is now p to 1,986,000 bush, against 1,867,750 
bush the preceding week.  The stock of corn in store 
here 18,864,850 bush, against 769,800 bush a week ago.  The 
aggregate of grain in store here is now 3,811,000 bush, 
against 3,108,050 bush a week earlier, and 2,589,000 bush 
at this date last year, and 3,4[?]2,450 bush at the corresponding 
date in 1879.  The total experts of wheat from 
the Atlantic ports during the past week were about 2,911,200 
bush, of which about 1,586,850 bush to the United

A BABY --- "LOST"!
BY MABELLE.

Have you seen my dear little baby?
   He has wandered from home away--
All in vain have I sought to find him
   From morn until closing day. 
I have hoped that he only was hiding
   From his mother, a moment, in play;

But the darkness of night is gathering,
   With its dews so damp and chill;
While my heart is growing more heavy
   With a sense of coming ill.
I have tried to lighten the burden, 
   But the weight is lying there still. 

They have told me perhaps on the morrow
   I should see him once more in my home;
But tell me, oh why should he wander,
   Or who would thus tempt him to roam?
His barque is too frail to be trusted
   Where life's billows so madly foam.

Then turn not away from my pleading,
   While alone through darkness I go;
Lest the cup which for you may be filling
   May hold the same measure of woe;
But go on this errand of mercy,
   My baby at once you will know;

For his cheeks were like blossoms of peaches—
   Eyes blue as the azure above;
And his brow was fairer than marble, 
   Where God placed the seal of his love;
His face was a pattern of meekness, 
   His voice like the tones of a dove. 

His garments were pure as the lilies,
   And her wore on his forehead a star, 
The brightness of which was so dazzling
   That nothing its glory could mar;
I have tried all in vain my weakness
   To follow, if only afar.

But a voice I have heard in the stillness,
   Whose language was music to me, 
Since it told me of wings which were hidden, 
   That I through my tears could not see,
Kept folded until they were needed,
   When my bird from his cage should be free.

Then one who would bear all my burdens,
   Has told me with tears of a bed, 
Where flowers are blooming in beauty,
   Where the grass her green mantle has spread;
He has told me, in tones full of pity, 
   "Our baby, dear Mabelle, is dead!"

But my heart had ready an answer,
   For baby was with me that day;
He was here in a living presence,
   Though not in form of clay;
And my soul still clings to the Savior,
   Who has taken death's sting away.

Now, 'tis only in hours of darkness,
   That "he's lost" is on all that I see;--
Then I turn from his home to our Eden,
   And it seems like a grave here to me;
But I know if my heart was breaking,
   "It is well," my sweet baby, with thee.

HOUSEHOLD BABY.
BY GRACE GREENWOOD.

What a joy to human eyes,
When it laughs, or when it cries;
What a treasure, what a prize,
   In the household baby!

Be its temper rising, falling,
Be it cooing, crowing, squalling,
'Tis the same fear precious darling—
   Is the household baby!

ADDRESS OF WENDELL PHILLIPS, ESQ
AT MUSIC HALL, BOSTON,
SUNDAY FORENOON, Nov. 2D, 1862.
——
Phonographically reported by J. M. W. YERRINTON.
——
   I was asked the other day, as I left these walls, why I sometimes preached at Music Hall. I shall try to give you part of an answer. Beginning a little back, "Words are things," as you well know. Symbols are often the very point about which the battle rages, and, for the time being, the most important. "There is more force in words," says Lowell, "than most men dream of, and a lie can keep its throne a whole age longer, if it my skulk behind the shield of some fair-seeming name." Very many battles, very many disputes, have been about words—names; and the superficial looker-on thinks it was a paltry cause of dispute. The London Times, a year ago, could not see—with a very convenient blindness for that hour-- why we should be so anxious to save the "stars and stripes" forgetting that on that symbol it hung whether we were a nation or a mob; a nation able and bound to do justice between man and man, or a mob met to plunder at night, and to scatter at cock crowing. SO in regard to the Church—the name "Church." Is this a Church? Am I to preach to you a sermon to-day? There are two kinds of churches and two kinds of sermons; both admissible, both in themselves good, both serving a purpose; the only question is, which has the precedence? which honors and which belittles Christianity> which saves and which serves its time. There is a church like a sheep-fold, nicely fenced, thoroughly furnished, with a good pasture, where the sheep luxuriate on quiet hillsides, and crop herbage every day. There is another church, wholly different: it is a league of honest men against knaves. There are two kinds of sermons—one is a speech, the other is a battle; one is the ornamental parade of a regiment at Readville, the other is the battle of Antietam or Pea-Ridge. Now, both are useful. It is very useful for a man to go to a gymnasium, and day by day strengthen his muscle, until he can at last hold up a hundred-pound dumb bell; but it is more useful still, if, disciplined in the battle-field, he never knew he could lift a hundred pounds until he hurled it at some obstinate foe. One is a parade, the other a fight; one nurses the strength and life of the individual, the other remoulds the State and forms the Church. The one is devotional, self-exercising, the other aggressive. The one makes Christianity, betrays her function, cripples her activity and her results. Most people set themselves to excuse this latter kind of church and sermon, such as we have here. Reform was never sent into the world to defend itself. Waste no time in showing that you are right; spend no effort in explaining yourself; use every hour and every word in showing that the enemy is a sinner, and let your own righteousness take care of itself. Lose no time in defence or explanation. We are the Church, and every thing that differs from us is heresy. We are the Christianity that the age needs, and so far as any thing falls behind us, so far it belittles the name it assumes. So in the political struggle. The great waste of time, it seems to me, is in proving that we are, in this or the other thing, justifiable. Take it for granted. We are the Constitution and the patriots, every thing else is treason. I do not stop to insist upon that point, because it is immaterial to what I am going to say, but only to prevent one supposition—that what I am speaking is a defence of this pulpit. It needs none. It summons every other pulpit in the land to its bar, tries it, and marks it thus and thus faithful, or thus and thus de- [continued on another page]

voted against him, as I know others did, because we would not make him respectable by that membership, while he preached in Music Hall." Again: Horace Mann—these things are the little bubbles that came to the surface in that struggle of what was anchored against what was thought in Massachusetts—Horace Mann undertook to remodel the common school system of Massachusetts, and he did it most faithfully; left it a legacy to his successors, and has placed Massachusetts perhaps at the head of the Northern States; but as long as he lived, this party of the past dogged every step he took in the Commonwealth with the cry of "Infidel!" and never rested until they had put that school system under more fashionable theological superintendence; and to-day, the woman who approaches a School Committee in Massachusetts with her hands full of recommendations will not have one of them opened, in three cases out of four, until she has answered the previous question, "Do you belong to the Orthodox Church?" For thirty years, a club of lawyers in this city, not a score in the whole, named every officer in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and unless a man bore the imprimateur of that Boston clique, as far West as Berkshire, he had no probable chance of success. The dynasty of this Council of Twenty was an imperious and as successful as the Council of Ten at Venice. Not unfrequently the humble member of our Suffolk Bar failed to get any fit attention from the Bench, not belonging to that select club which, Judge and Counsel alike, left its champagne at midnight to meet in Court at nine o'clock. Non-members were unfashionable, and held at unfamiliar distance, while boon companions found their motions promptly considered. Rantoul—a man out of whose brain your Whig pet, now retired, might have cut his own, and Rantoul have never missed it; one of the most honest, one of the most able, and the most progressive member of the Suffolk Bar—Ransoul died, a member of Congress, dear to the State by labors in Temperance and Education which placed him side by side with Horace Mann, and while every attorney who ever argued a case can have a meeting of the bar and resolutions to do him honor, the noblest Massachusetts lawyer of his age was allowed to pass to his grave from Washington to Essex County without one word of recognition from his fellows, because he was a Democrat! Standing before a literary society of a Massachusetts college on the day the news of his death reached us, I tried to do my duty to his memory in remembering how faithfully, at the cost of his election, he served the Temperance cause, and how manfully he stood by Horace Mann in all his struggle. An Orthodox professor of that college took me to task, and said, "Why did you praise Robert Rantoul?" I said, "Because he deserved it!" The whole life of Robert Rantoul is an illustration of the methods by which the party of the past opposed every man who dared to think—not with fair argument, not with honest struggled, but by persecution, in the only methods known to modern times.
   But let me go elsewhere. You know, some of you, Parker Pillsbury. Lips touched with a coal from that altar, which inspired the stern grandeur of Isaiah! When a New England boy, having wrought out with his own hands, in a dozen years, the scanty means of getting himself an education, he stood at its goal, about to graduate at the theological institution at Andover, the question of the annexation of Texas brooding at that time over the Union, his heart ran out to meet the anti-Texas movement of the Commonwealth, the Faculty said to him, "If you lecture for an anti-slavery society, you shall never have a license;" and the brave boy said, "I have spent fifteen years in the effort to get it, but before I add to the cost putting a gag upon my lips, I will renounce those fifteen years." (Applause.)
   But to leave Law and Divinity, it was the same in medicine. No physician could get his fee at law, for many years unless he were a member of the Medical [continued on another page]

[continued from another page] tion. You recollect the story which Theodore Parker was wont to tell you, that when Michael Angelo entered a palace whose ceilings Raphael was then painting, and found one covered with figures too small for the room, instead of uttering a word, he sketched on the opposite side a gigantic head, fitly proportioned to the building, and left. He criticised by creation; and when Raphael looked again at his own pigmies, he dropped his pencil, and refused to enter the hall again. So, when the Mercantile Library would not invite Theodore Parker, you instituted the Fraternity, and superseded it. (Applause.) When the Church shut its door upon the new Massachusetts of reform, the Washingtonians , the Temperance Society, the Anti-Slavery lecturers went out and appealed to the common people, gathered them where they could, in private rooms, district school-houses, by the wayside, made what they could of their means, and preached to the conscience and the hearts of the masses of the Commonwealth. Criticised by creation! They not merely rebuked the Church for its backsliding, they created the Music Hall, the anti-slavery meeting, and the temperance society, and did the work which a politics in fashion and a Church in quiet had left undone. After awhile, after a few years of this toil, we saw ideas that had been mobbed out of the critics come back to sit throned in the State House. And when the great men of the Whig party were some of them dead and buried, and some dead but not buried, the people of the Commonwealth—the people, outside of machinery, with no organization to speak of, to the terror of Boston, took a young lawyer from No. 4 Court street, never heard of in office before, and lifted him in its strong hand up to the Senate of the United States. It was the people, announcing its preference for a man who has a
