The last page of the Genius was printed in French, for the benefit of Haytian subscribers, and also contained a list of agents for the paper in different cities. This included the names of James Mott, of Philadelphia, Dr. Bartholomew Fussell, of Kennett Square, Pa., and Samuel Philbrick, of Boston, none of whom were then personally known to Mr. Garrison, but who subsequently became his life-long friends and co-workers; and also James Cropper, of Liverpool. It was doubtless to the last-named gentleman, an active supporter of Wilberforce and Buxton in the English anti-slavery movement, that Lundy and Garrison were indebted for a frequent supply of reports and other publications showing the progress of the agitation for West-India emancipation. They published considerable extracts from these in the Genius, contrasting the activity of the British with the apathy of the American abolitionists, and trying to incite the latter to similar effort.

A formal review of it appeared in the British Eclectic Review, the organ of the Nonconformists, for Feb., 1833, p. 138. The work was eagerly greeted by the English philanthropists who had already begun to unmask and to thwart the Colonization agent, Elliott Cresson. It furnished the basis of Charles Stuart's Prejudice Vincible (Liverpool: printed by Egerton Smith & Co., 1832), reprinted with other matter in a pamphlet published by Garrison & Knapp in 1833, called British Opinions of the American Colonization Society. The preface to this pamphlet states that some 2750 copies of the Thoughts had been disposed of in nine months. For a British reply, see Dr. Thomas Hodgkin's An Inquiry into the Merits of the American Colonization Society, etc. (London: J. & A. Arch, 1833). Viewed in this light, and not merely as literature, i

Some four days were spent in the city, of which Mr. Garrison gives his impressions in a manuscript fragment dated May 27, 1833: The population of Liverpool, including its suburbs, is about as large as that of New York. I have had but a cursory view of the place, and shall therefore avoid entering into the minute in flowers, to bales and boxes of merchandize; and tiny cataracts and gentle streams, to sublime waterspouts and the great ocean. Hence, another place for me than Liverpool; and such a place I could easily find, in almost any direction, within a few miles of it—that is to say, if I were friendly to colonization.

Lib. 5.139, 195. assist in redeeming it from a foreign yoke, has far less of sublimity in it than the high moral heroism and noble benevolence of George Thompson. He comes, not as a foreigner, but as a man and a brother, feeling for those in bonds as bound with them. A young man of thirty years, George Thompson was born in Liverpool, June 18, 1804. his person is tall, graceful, and agile, his countenance fine and attractive, his voice mellifluent, and his action all that Demosthenes could desire. As an orator, Cf. Lib. 6.75. he surpasses every speaker that I have ever heard, O'Connell not excepted. His appeals are absolutely electrifying. The similarity in age between Mr. Garrison and the English orator favored a friendly attachment, but there May's Recollections, p. 108, seq. were other circumstances—such
