al action against it. But he was too earnest a man, and too devout a Christian, to rest satisfied with the only action against slavery consistent with one's duty as a citizen, according to the usual Republican interpretation of the Federal Constitution. That teaches us that we must content ourselves with resisting the extension of slavery. Where the Republicans said, Halt; John Brown shouted, Forward! to the rescue! He was an abolitionist of the Bunker Hill school. He followed neither Garrison nor Seward, Gerritt Smith nor Wendell Phillips: but the Golden Rule, and the Declaration of Independence, in the spirit of the Hebrew warriors, and in the God-applauded mode that they adopted. The Bible story of Gideon, records a man who betrayed him, had manifestly a great influence on his actions. He believed in human brotherhood and in the God of Battles; he admired Nat Turner, the negro patriot, equally with George Washington, the white American deliverer. He could not see that it wa

ts approached to within one mile and a half of the western boundary of the town of Ossawatomie. At this place my son Frederick K. (who was not attached to my force) had lodged, with some four other young men from Lawrence, and a young man named Garrison, from Middle Creek. The scouts, led by a pro-slavery preacher named White, shot my son dead in the road, whilst he-as 1 have since ascertained — supposed them to be friendly. At the same time they butchered Mr. Garrison, and badly mangled oMr. Garrison, and badly mangled one of the young men from Lawrence, who came with my son, leaving him for dead. This was not far from sunrise. I had stopped during the night about two and one half miles from them, and nearly one mile from Ossawatomie. I had no organized force, but only some twelve or fifteen new recruits, who were ordered to leave their preparations for breakfast, and follow me into the town as soon as this news was brought to me. As I had no means of learning correctly the force of the enemy, I placed

family framed in by the window. Home, family, comfort, beauty, joy, love were crowded into an instant of thought and feeling, as I sprang through the door and quickly ascended the stairway. I handed my wife the superintendent's paper granting me a short leave. Nothing startling, I said, as I noticed her surprise; if I am chosen colonel of the Kennebec Regiment, I wish to be on the ground to organize it. It was short notice, less than an hour for preparation, as the down train passed Garrison's, east of the Hudson, at 1.30 P. M. My valise was soon packed, luncheon finished, and then came the moment of leave-taking, made a little harder by my wife's instinctive apprehension that I would not return to West Point. Her instinct, womanlike, was superior to my reasoning. In truth, I was not to come back I For an instant there was a momentary irresolution and a choking sensation filled my throat, but the farewell was cheerfully spoken and I was off. My wife was patriotic, stron

fort on the impossible; and the latter saw fit to make an offensive and uncalled — for thrust at the abolition movement, which in his view was not reconcilable with duty under the Constitution. He apparently intended the slur not merely for Mr. Garrison's followers, but for those also who were in favor of a political party acting against slavery. The Boston Advertiser, Nov. 27, 1845, discountenanced the agitation as fruitless, and approved the position of Lawrence and Appleton. The Whig jourthers of a different mood saw in the darkness and tumult outside emblems of the foul and traitor-like designs within. C. F. Adams made a speech on taking the chair. The other speakers were Palfrey, Sumner, and Hillard, Whigs; Wendell Phillips, Garrison, and W. H. Channing, Abolitionists; and H. B. Stanton, of the Liberty party. Sumner had drawn the resolutions (though read by another), which, as he wrote at a later day, start with the annunciation of equal rights and the brotherhood of all me
