Heidelberg, Feb. 27, 1840. my dear Morpeth,—Your delightful letter of August 13 found me at Vienna, fairly escaped from the fascinations of Italy. Since then, I have seen something of the great points of Germany,—Vienna and Prince Metternich, who praised my country very much (!); Dresden, Berlin, and most of the interesting people there, among whom was a kinsman of yours, Henry Howard; Leipsic, Gotha, and the Ducal Palace; Frankfort, Heidelberg, where I am now enjoying the simplicity of German life unadulterated by fashionable and diplomatic intercourse.

To Longfellow, he wrote, in December, 1842:— Send, if you have not already, a copy of your Slavery Poems to John Quincy Adams. He deserves the compliment for his earnest advocacy of freedom, and the rights of the North. God bless every champion of the truth! And may man bless the champion also. To Lord Morpeth. Lord Morpeth wrote from Castle Howard Oct. 30, 1842: I long watched the forms gathered on the quay at New York, as we paddled off, with real emotion, and felt how much that I prized and loved I was leaving behind. And now after having been a fortnight at home, after enjoying the delight of being reunited with many of my family, after being more struck than ever with the finished and enamelled face of English scenery,—the hedge-row luxuriance of her fields, the gay sobriety of her steeples and towers,—I still most constantly fee<

The Advertiser Dec. 26, 1842. undertook to apply the principle of the letter to citizens of Massachusetts and other Free States, who were, as it contended, excluded equally with foreigners from engaging in the Anti-slavery agitation. Sumner replied, in an article filling a column and a half of that journal, Jan. 10, 1843.

There are so few like him upon earth that I cannot believe God really means to deprive humanity of so noble an example of all that is good and high-minded and pure. Lord Morpeth wrote from Castle Howard, Aug. 18:— I write a hurried line, in consequence of a note I have received from Madame Calderon, telling me that you are very far from well. I wish intently to receive from your own hands, if it be possible, some definite account of yoursk Conquest of Mexico. has been received with unprecedented favor. It is an exquisite book, more interesting and complete than the other: I am inclined to say a superior work to the other.
