head. Had it struck him, undoubtedly he would have been killed on the spot. He went on with his lecture, however, and told the people he would not cease to plead the cause of enslaved humanity in that place, until either mob law was put down, or he should fall a victim. The next evening his meeting was slightly disturbed, but the third evening he carried his point triumphantly. About twenty of the rioters have been arrested —all men of cloth. Rev. Mr. Grosvenor has been mobbed in Worcester County. Mass. Charles Stuart has been mobbed in the western part of the State of New York. A brickbat struck him on the head, which made him senseless for a time; but as soon as he recovered, he began to plead for the suffering and dumb, until he was persuaded by a clergyman to desist. Rev. George Storrs has been mobbed (according to law) in Lib. 6.11. New Hampshire. In the midst of his prayer, he was arrested, and violently shaken, and carried before a justice of the peace as a va

Still, Mrs. Chapman and her sisters, whose exertions at this time may be said to have been indispensable to Mr. Ms. May 25, 1838, W. L. G. to G. W. Benson. Garrison's pecuniary maintenance, knew better than any one else the possible damage to the Liberator from becoming practically the organ of the Non-Resistance Society. Hence the followin

penly avowed! Far from it; for honesty in this case might not, peradventure, prove to be the best policy. The shape in which this new project is to be urged, is developed in the resolutions which were adopted at the recent meeting of the Worcester County North Division A. S. Society, at Fitchburg. (See the proceedings in another column.) These Lib. 9.7. resolutions were concocted in Essex County, by the joint labors of two clergymen, and passed as above stated—only four or five hands, we ly words— mighty in truth, mighty in their simple earnestness. Mr. Douglass's account is certainly tinged by his general recollection of Mr. Garrison's views at this period. The latter was speaking not only as an abolitionist, but as an agent. Worcester, Middlesex, and Essex Counties, everywhere strengthening the friends and discomfiting the enemies of the Liberator and the Board; and closed his labors in Rhode Island, on the eve of embarking for New York, whither the scene of conflict next s
