March 3d, One thousand dollars were appropriated for State aid to the families of volunteers. July 22d, On notion of Hon. George T. Davis, it was voted to pay a bounty of one hundred dollars to each volunteer enlisting for three years, who is, or shall be, credited to the quota of the town; that the selectmen be authorized to borrow forty-seven hundred dollars for the payment of bounties, twelve hundred dollars for State aid to soldiers' families, and five hundred dollars for the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers of Greenfield.

d been school-mates; but with two of the most conspicuous members of the class — William Henry Channing and James Freeman Clarke-she formed a life-long friendship, and they became her biographers. Another of these biographersthe Rev. Frederick Henry Hedge, her townsman -knew her also at this period, though he had already left college and had previously been absent from Cambridge for some years, at a German gymnasium. Still another associate, also of the class of 1829, was her kinsman, George T. Davis, afterwards well known as a member of Congress from the Greenfield (Mass.) district,a man of the world and of brilliant gifts. But after all, the most important part of a woman's training is that which she obtains from her own sex; and since Margaret Fuller's mother was one of the self-effacing sort, it was fortunate for the young girl .that, by a natural reaction, she sought feminine influences outside of her own home. She was one of those maidens who form passionate attachments to

ast ten or fifteen years. I know that strange sounds have been heard from the House of Representatives and the Senate within the last ten or fifteen years: that the old tone so often breathed there of Northern submission has very much changed since John Quincy Adams vindicated free speech on the floor of that House. I read just now a speech worthy, in some respects, of Faneuil Hall, from the lips of Robert Rantoul, in rebuke of a recreant Abolitionist from the banks of the Connecticut (George T. Davis). I know not what may be the future course of Mr. Rantoul on this question; I know not how erect he may stand hereafter; but I am willing to give him good credit in the future, so well paid has been this his first bill of exchange. [Great cheering.] He has done, at least, his duty to the constituency he represented. He looked North for his instructions. The time has been when no Massachusetts representative looked North; we saw only their backs. They have always looked to the Southe

a dinner to the judges, the chaplain, and members of the bar and other gentlemen. He gathered, on these festive occasions, such guests as Chief Justices Parker and Shaw, Judges Prescott, Putnam, Wilde, Morton, Hubbard, Thacher, Simmons, Solicitor General Davis, Governor Lincoln, Josiah Quincy, John Pickering, Harrison Gray Otis, William Minot, Timothy Fuller, Samuel E.

The sheriff, in consequence of the adverse expressions of opinion on his action, tendered his resignation to Governor Everett, who declined to accept it. To George T. Davis, of Greenfield, then editor of the Franklin Mercury, he wrote a note of thanks for an article in that paper, Aug. 9, 1836, which had served as a breakwater to turn aside the strong tide of reproach, which, for a few days, had been setting ag

the House had it remained in session one day longer. Up to this time, it must be remembered, colored men were not admitted to the Massachusetts militia, repeated applications from the leading colored men of Boston having failed to remove the restriction. In the final debate, the main supporters of the resolution were Messrs. Henry L. Pierce of Dorchester, Charles W. Slack of Boston and William F. Durfee of New Bedford, the chief opponents being Messrs. A. H. Bullock of Worcester and George T. Davis of Greenfield. The opposition was based apparently on no distrust of the blacks, but upon the necessity of conciliating the prejudices of the Border States. Mr. (afterwards governor) Bullock avowed his willingness to remove every vestige of disability from the colored citizens, and in proper time he hoped to see it done. This was not the time. Twenty-three sovereign States are a unit in this conflict. He who would now cast a firebrand among the ranks of the united North and West an
