blican Convention at Pittsburg of Feb. 22, 1856 (Lib. 26.41), put the Southern slaveholders at 300,000, but De Bow's larger estimate was generally current—350,000 (Josiah Quincy, June 5, 1856, Library of American literature, 4.308; Wm. H. Herndon, 1856, Lib. 26.70; Theodore Parker, 1856, Lib. 26.81; Harriet Martineau, 1857, Lib. 27: 173); 400,000 (W. L. G., 1857, Lib. 27: 72; Owen Lovejoy, April 5, 1860, Lib. 30: 62).

G., 1857, Lib. 27: 72; Owen Lovejoy, April 5, 1860, Lib. 30: 62). For the sake of the moneyed interests and social and political supremacy of this oligarchy, the whole country was plunging headlong into a frightful abyss of idolatry of the Union, and utter repudiation of the claims of humanity in the person of the enslaved—and especially of the fleeing, hunted, and imploring—negro. Correspondingly small, in its own relation, was the group of three popular leaders who brought about this national degradation. All of them nearing or past the term of threescore years and ten, and standing on the brink of the grave,—two of them gray and

Paris, September 29, 1855. Liberty Bell for 1856, p. 100; Lib. 26.60. Madame: Seeing you on the point of departing for America, I cannot forbear entreating you to be the bearer of my tribute of respect and admiration to one of your compatriots. Need I add that I have in view our holy cause ostrous position. For arbitrary judicial tyranny, the case stands alone in the history of the anti-slavery struggle. See, for details, Lib. 25: 119, 131, 167, 178, 179, 182, 191, 194, and the volume, The case of Passmore Williamson, Philadelphia, 1856. Judge Kane took the extraordinary ground that the law of nations (!) guaranteed the right of transit for slave property like any other (Lib. 25: 167). In Kansas, the liberty of white men is struck down, and held at the point of the bayonet, and h

Chapter 16: Fremont.—1856. The pro-slavery atrocities in Kansas do not cause Garrison to regard the border-ruffian otherwise than as a fellow-man, or to view the newly formed Republican Party as an abolition organization. But, as between Fr6mont and Buchanan or Fillmore, he wishes success to the Republican candidate for President. The election of N. P. Banks to the Speakership of Feb. 2, 1856; Lib. 26.23. the lower house of Congress, after a two months struggle, over a South Carolinay, or Jackson, occupying precisely their ground), but because he is for the non-extension of slavery, in common with the great body of the people of the North, whose attachment to the Union amounts to idolatry. Well, the Presidential struggle will terminate on Tuesday Nov. 4, 1856. next, with all its forgeries, tricks, shams, lies, and slanders. Laus Deo! Whatever may be the result, upon our banner will still be inscribed in ineffaceable characters the motto: no Union with slaveholders!

ond as precursors of the break-up. Lib. 30.1. The North bade them good-bye with a smile at their silliness, and turned an incredulous ear to the Southern echoes of Harper's Ferry in both Houses of Congress. Had not Fremont's possible election in 1856 been made the ground Ante, p. 435. of threats of secession? Why, then, pay heed to similar talk now in view of Seward's probable nomination and election by the Republican Party? Henry Wilson, in a speech in the Senate on January 25, 1860, put ohis doctrine in advance. For ten days, amid scenes of turbulence and passion unparalleled in Lib. 30.70. American political history, the battle raged over this point. Both wings of the party were agreed in reaffirming the Cincinnati platform of 1856, in denouncing the Personal Liberty laws of the North, in demanding the annexation of Cuba—which meant simply the revival of the slave trade. Mr. Gaulden, one of the delegates from Georgia, spoke openly (and humorously) on May 1 in favor of thi
