Mayor Lyman had also opposed the Missouri Compromise in a 4th of July oration in 1820, and in 1821 had, as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, reported against a proposed law to check the immigration of pauper blacks. He, too, was now satisfied with the Compact, as was John Quincy Adams, so esecration of the Sabbath day. The subject was one to which Mr. Garrison was fully alive. A few days before composing his editorial article, he had written as follows to his wife from Providence, while en route to Fall River: To deliver a 4th of July address. On the night of the 3d (Sunday) an effigy of straw was attached to a post on the Main Street, with a placard marked Garrison the Abolitionist: a fit subject for the gallows (Lib. 6.111). As a specimen of the growing wickedness of

willing to submit to Christ. What then? Shall we, as Christians, applaud and do homage to human government? or shall we not rather lay the axe at the root of the tree, and attempt to destroy both cause and effect together? Foolish are the speculations about the best form of human government: What is government but the express image of the moral character of a people? The hand of Noyes was first made visible in the Liberator of July 28, when the editor reported his own Lib. 7.123. Fourth of July address before the Anti-Slavery Society of Providence (in the High-Street meeting-house). It was, he said, somewhat peculiar, and couched in solemn language. In the course of it he had read an extract of a letter from an esteemed friend, in which the following startling passage occurred: My hope of the millen- nium begins where Dr. Beecher's expires, viz., at the overthrow of this nation! This passage, which had deeply affected his mind, he developed in contrast to the noisy celebrati

Mankind shall hail the 20TH of September with more exultation and gratitude than Americans now do the 4TH of July. This may now be regarded as solemn bombast; but it is prophetical, and shall not fail to be fulfilled. All who voted for it were abolitionists. Edmund Quincy, Wendell Lib. 8.155.

s proposition in Southern eyes. Witness the abortive gradual-emancipation bill introduced, in 1832, in the United States Senate, by John Tyler, of Virginia, a member of the Committee on the District of Columbia. This forbade bringing into the District slaves born out of the United States, or convicted of crime and sentenced to deportation, or for sale ( Letters and Times of John Tyler, 1: 570). Tyler was a leading colonizationist. Mr. Garrison made Mr. Adams's vagaries the subject of a Fourth of July discourse at South Scituate before the Lib. 9.113, and pamphlet.

Still, the old man eloquent established abundant claims upon the gratitude of the abolitionists by his unrelaxed efforts to recover their right of petition, by his support of the Lib. 9.3. recognition of Hayti, and especially by opposing the delivery of the captives of the Amistad A vessel proceeding from Havana to Principe, with forty-nine slaves fresh from Africa, towards the end o
