Charles Congdon, Tribune Essays: Leading Articles Contributing to the New York Tribune from 1857 to 1863. (ed. Horace Greeley), Mr. Buxton Scared. (search)
Mr. Buxton Scared. Fowell Buxton's philanthropy, we are compelled to believe, is of that description which is limited by the price of beer and the rent of ale-houses. It is of the hereditary description, and, like most hereditary virtues, it e more merciful to the Slaveholders and to their defenceless families, than the Proclamation. From this point of view, Buxton's untold misery is easily calculated. It is certainly strange, that a history with which he should be familiar has taughbly bending the knee in their little chapels, to thank God for the great salvation which had been vouchsafed to them. If Buxton knew anything of the American Blacks, he would anticipate no worse evil from their enfranchisement. They are vastly morestand for his freedom. We deprecate as much as any timid Englishman an insurrection of the slaves. But while with Fowell Buxton we contemplate the untold misery which such an event would occasion, we cannot banish from our thoughts the untold mi

3. Wilberforce breathed his last in London, and a week later still (August 5) his remains were interred in Westminster Abbey by the side of Fox and Pitt.

Houses of Parliament, many of England's proudest nobility, and representatives of the intellect, virtue, philanthropy, and industry of the land—behind Wellington, Peel, Graham, Morpeth, Fowell Buxton, Lushington, Stanley, the Grattans—walked with his friend George Thompson the editor of the Liberator, the least observed and the least known of the funeral procession, yet the one upon whom, if upon any one, Wilberforce's mantle had fallen, and whose prominence in this historic scene must grow with the shifting perspective of time. On Saturday, the 18th of August, Mr. Garrison embarked from London in the packet-ship Hannibal, Capt. Hebard, for the United States. At the end of a week

Lady, but Mr. Grew, having come late, had not yet had the honor of an introduction. Having formed ourselves into a semicircle round his lordship during the reading, at the close Miss Grew took her father's arm, and, in a cool, self-possessed manner, walked across the intervening space, and introduced her father to the Duchess of Sutherland, then mistress of the robes, with the same air as she would have presented two plain republicans in her own country. Standing near the daughter of Sir Fowell Buxton, she said to me, What are you American girls made of? Not a girl in all England would have presumed to intro. duce a commoner, to one of such rank as her Grace. Ah madam, I replied, you forget that in our country we are all of noble blood, all heirs apparent to the throne. The women who devoted themselves to the anti-slavery cause in the early days, endured the double odium of being abolitionists, and women out of their sphere; hence the men who were engaged in the same cause li
