nued, upon the condition that slavery should still be interdicted, a great portion of the colored population in the other States, at least on this side of the Mississippi, might be induced to remove thither. It would be the most suitable place for them in the world. It was a favorite idea of Lundy's to establish a colony for the free blacks and emancipated slaves in Southern territory. So firm was his belief that Texas was the most appropriate region for it, that he subsequently (between 1831 and 1835) made three journeys thither, traversing the country, living there for months at a time, falling back on his saddler's trade for support when his funds gave out, incurring constant peril from disease or violence, yet laboring year after year, in season and out of season, to obtain a grant of land from the Mexican Government for his colony. In 1835 he succeeded in securing a grant of 138,000 acres, on condition that he should bring to it two hundred and fifty settlers with their fami

lor as brethren and countrymen who have been unjustly treated and covered with unmerited shame. This is the question—and the only question. There follow thirty-eight pages of Introductory Remarks, in which Mr. Garrison defends the sincerity of his opposition to the Society; tells how he was converted from a favorable opinion of it by examining its reports for himself; cites all the specifications he has brought against it in the Liberator and in his Address to the free people of color in 1831; declares his friendliness to voluntary colonization, whether in Liberia or elsewhere, but shows, by a review of the history of Liberia, that the boasted evangelization of Africa has been neglected—that forts and murderous wars, on the one hand, and rum and tobacco, on the other, have formed the basis of propagandism among the natives, while the colony itself is left in intellectual darkness, so that there are two ignorant and depraved nations to be regenerated instead of one: One of th

ciety in the vein of his Thoughts, told how Clarkson had been deceived by its agent assuring him that its first object was to emancipate all the slaves, the chairman interrupted him, saying that this was a grave charge; Mr. Cresson was present—would he admit or deny having made such a statement? Cresson answered that he had done so,—a confession dictated not more by candor than by necessity, for Mr. Garrison was able to hand Mr. Cropper a pamphlet to which Report of Penn. Colon. Soc. for 1831. Cresson had furnished an introduction, declaring that the great object of the Colonization Society is the final and entire abolition of slavery; and Mr. George Thompson cited a placard of one of Cresson's meetings, headed, American Colonization Society and the Abolition of Slavery. Mr. Garrison then described with what feelings he heard Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons Lib. 3.126, 167. a few days before June 3.

to be canonized. Nothing marks more peculiarly Mr. Garrison's antislavery warfare than the maturity of it—the judicial measure which is visible in his earliest as in his latest utterances. There had been, since his programme was announced in 1831, no deviation from it, no change in his spirit or his language. No shade had yet come over his orthodoxy. He had not ceased to quote the Bible against slaveholding, nor to depend upon the instrumentality of the churches in converting the North tquirer, say, in offering a reward for his abduction, but for his blowing hot and cold in the same breath. And why so much uproar over a few abolitionists—with their, to be sure, six State and three hundred auxiliary associations, all formed since 1831 and in despite of persecution; and their four hundred meetings appointed for the next three months, as an offset to the series of Northern town meetings now in progress for their suppression? So, then, we derive from our opponents these instructi
