Gerrit Smith says the transfer of the Emancipator was a great outrage—told Burleigh so—not publicly (Ms. Feb. 10, 1841, J. S. Gibbons to W. L. G.). The transfer of the Emancipator was indefensible (Ms. Nov. 26, 1870, Gerrit Smith to W. L. G.). Yet I doubt not that the mission of J. A. C. will do much for our persecuted Collins. enterprise. For what you have done to aid him, we all feel under the deepest obligations. May Heaven reward you a hundred-fold! Fear not that truth shall not triumph d for the year 1841. Dr. Channing, in his work on West India Emancipation, sorrowfully admitted the Lib. 11.6. pro-slavery character of American religion; and Gerrit Smith, speaking to this text, said: I do not hesitate to make the remark, infidel though it may seem in the eyes of many, that were all the religion of this land—th

er; but, on his invitation, I spent the evening with him and James C. Jackson (whose headquarters are now in Utica), and we had a talk on a great variety of topics, not excepting third-partyism. I spoke very plainly on the last topic, and made them both rather uneasy; for poor James evidently felt that he stood on a sandy foundation. In company with Luther Myrick, J. C. Jackson founded at Cazenovia, N. Y., in September, 1841, a third-party paper called the Madison County Abolitionist. Gerrit Smith had invited him to edit it, and contributed to his support (Lib. 11: 159; Mss. Sept. 29, 1841, J. S. Gibbons to W. L. G., and Oct. 9, 1841, J. C. Jackson to Abby Kelley). Just before Mr. Garrison's arrival, Jackson had publicly advertised a Liberty Party lecturing partnership with W. L. Chaplin, on the independent contract system— i. e., not as agents for any society or organization, and neither salaried nor living off the field; but on special terms for their services in every instance.

ll for the admission of Louisiana, Jan. 14, 1811: I am compelled to declare it as my deliberate opinion that, if this bill passes, the bonds of this Union are virtually dissolved; that the States which compose it are free from their moral obligations, and that, as it will be the right of all, so it will be the duty of some, to prepare definitely for a separation—amicably if they can, violently if they must ( Life of Josiah Quincy, p. 206). So Judge Jay, about to sail for Europe, wrote to Gerrit Smith: Rather than be in union with Texas, let the confederation be shivered.
