ted to do, under the stars and stripes, in broad daylight, by wholesale, what Virginia murdered Brown for trying to do in detail. Speech of Wendell Phillips, Jan. 28, 1864. There was the case of an indignant Union General who directed a brutal slave-owner Lib. 34.22. to be tied up and flogged by the slave women whom he Brig.-Gen. Edward A. Wild. had himself been scourging. Colored schools in South Lib. 34.91. Carolina and Louisiana and a camp of colored soldiers in Lib. 35.179; 33.144. Kansas bore the name of William Lloyd Garrison; and one of the gunners who aimed the first great Parrott gun Lib. 34.114. at Charleston was a Liberator subscriber. But scenes and events still more dramatic and impressive were to come, and it is not probable that the United States will ever see the parallel in this respect of the ninety days ending with the month of April, 1865.

and therefore enjoyed the trip exceedingly. We had a beautiful moon with us all the way each night, and at times the scene was magical. Our good friends, Mr. and T. C. and C. M. Severance, Gilbert Pillsbury, J. G. Dodge. Mrs. Severance, Mr. Pillsbury (brother of Parker), Mr. Severance was Collector of the Port at Hilton Head. Mr. Pillsbury soon afterwards became the Republican Mayor of Charleston. Mr. Dodge, and a number of others were there to give me a warm welcome to the shores of Carolina. The next day we went in the steamer Delaware to Savannah, and passed by Fort Pulaski and many other objects of interest, and saw the remains of the formidable obstructions placed in the Savannah river to keep our war vessels at bay. We found carriages waiting for us on our arrival, and went through the principal streets of Savannah, which is a city of mingled gentility and squalor, but entirely dead in regard to all business affairs. Thursday evening we left Hilton Head April 13. in the

W. L. Garrison to his wife. Charleston, S. C., April 15, 1865. We had a fine passage from Fortress Monroe to Hilton Head, where we arrived on Tuesday night. I experienced no April 11. seasickness of any account, and thereer a cloudy sky, fit symbol of our nation's loss, and betook ourselves to our several homes. No stop was made at Fortress Monroe on the return voyage, which was so hastily ordered that the steamer had only one hour's supply of coal left on reach

lements under our own control—a splendid sunset last evening—a night so brilliant and entrancing that I did not turn into my berth till a late hour. This day the air is warmer, and as beautiful as it can be, and we have come with so little motion that scarcely any have been sea-sick, and, for a wonder, I have experienced no trouble whatever on that score. . . . Everything has been provided on a liberal scale, and we are living as though we were at a first-class hotel. When we go round Cape Hatteras, we shall probably be put to a much severer test. We have about eighty invited guests on board, bound to see the flag raised at Sumter. Among these are Judge Swayne of Noah H. Swayne. the U. S. Supreme Court; Judge Kelley of Philadelphia; Lieut.- William D. Kelley. Governor Anderson (brother of the General) of Ohio; General Anderson and a portion of his family; Rev.

cipated blacks, and almost overwhelmed by their tokens of joy and gratitude. Mr. Garrison was one of the multitude assembled in Faneuil Hall on the afternoon of the following day to exult over the event, April 4. and to enjoy the unwonted spectacle of Robert C. Winthrop and Frederick Douglass speaking from the same platform. There were loud calls for himself after Douglass had finished his brilliant speech, but he had already left the hall in order to speak at a Freedmen's Aid meeting in Chelsea, where the steps of the auction-block were again a feature of the occasion. Just before he was invited to mount them (over a rebel flag captured by his son's regiment), a telegram was put into his hands, and the applause with which his ascent of the steps was greeted was redoubled when he read aloud to the audience a dispatch from the Secretary of War, inviting him to be present, as a guest of the Government, at the ceremony of raising the stars and stripes on Fort Sumter, on April 14, the

Swiftly following the example of Maryland, Missouri joined the ranks of the free States at the beginning of the new year, and abolished slavery within Jan. 11. her borders without a day of grace or a cent of compensation to the slave-masters. The new Constitution was adopted in State Convention without submission to popular vote. The clause abolishing slavery passed by a vote of 60 to 4 (Lib. 35: 11). As if shamed to decency by this signal repentance of her neighbor, Illinois tardily Lib. 35.28. repealed her infamous Black Laws; and on the last day of January the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, forever abolishing slavery in the United States, triumphantly passed the House of Representatives at Washington by the requisite two-thirds majority.

Chapter 5: the Jubilee.—1865. Missouri follows the example of Maryland, and Congress passes the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, abolishing slavery forever. Garrison opens the jubilee meeting held in Boston, and proclaims the Declaration of Independence Constitutionalized; is pressingly summoned to Newburyport for a like occasion, and warmly greeted; and gives notice of his intention to discontinue the Liberator at the end of the year. He is invited, together with George Thompston; addresses the freedmen in multitudes, and receives the most touching tokens of their gratitude; visits the grave of Calhoun, and is recalled to the North by the news of Lincoln's assassination. Swiftly following the example of Maryland, Missouri joined the ranks of the free States at the beginning of the new year, and abolished slavery within Jan. 11. her borders without a day of grace or a cent of compensation to the slave-masters.
