ocratic party, so far as non-intervention with slavery at the South, or the recapture of fugitive slaves, or the suppression of slave insurrections, or the three-fifths representation, is concerned? As if this were not enough, the party, in its Chicago platform,—after recognizing the right of each State to order and control its own domestic institutions, according to its own judgment exclusively, —goes out of its way to denounce the lawless invasion by an armed force of any State or Territorged because the thousands who are flocking to the Federal standard, while they shout, The Union, The Constitution, and Our star-spangled banner, do not also shout, Down with Slavery! I am not discouraged because kidnapping has been permitted in Chicago, and General Butler has played so infamous a part in Maryland, and slaves have been driven from Fort Pickens, and even Greeley has talked with bated breath on the subject of slavery, in recent articles in the Tribune. No! I have confidence in t

word white. And, if possible, I mean to bring the House to a vote on it, and let them confront the question face to face. Recurring to the President, there are a great many reports concerning him which seem to be reliable and authentic, which, after all, are not so. It was currently reported among the anti-slavery men of Illinois, that the Emancipation Proclamation was extorted from him by the outward pressure, and particularly by the delegation from the Christian Convention that met at Chicago. Now, the fact is this, as I had it from his own lips: He had written the Proclamation in the summer (as early Ante, p. 62. as June, I think, but will not be certain as to the precise time), and called his Cabinet together, and informed them that he had written it and he meant to make it, but wanted to read it to them for any criticism or remarks as to its features or details. After having done so, Mr. Seward suggested whether it would not be well for him to withhold its publication unti

As usual, too, the social enjoyments of the journey were more than a compensation for its hardships. In almost every city he was the recipient of courtesies and attentions from old and new friends; beyond Michigan all was new to him, and he saw Chicago and the Nov. 16-20. Mississippi River (at Quincy) for the first time. Unexpected Nov. 22. glimpses of George Thompson (also on a Western lecture tour), at Detroit, and Gerrit Smith, at Chicago, were among the pleasant incidents of the journeyChicago, were among the pleasant incidents of the journey. At Princeton, Illinois, he paid his respects to the widow and children Nov. 20. of Owen Lovejoy, and at Springfield was the guest of W. H. Herndon, Lincoln's law partner, with whom he visited Nov. 26. the tomb of the martyr-President. On his return journey he travelled with members of Congress on their way to Washington for the opening of the new session. I am constantly urging the importance of not admitting any of the rebel States into the Union until a longer probation, he wrote to h

ng signatures—gladly appended in every case— of the Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, and Chief Justice of Massachusetts, the State's Senators and Representatives in Congress, Senators and Representatives from sixteen other States (including Missouri), the Chief Justice of the United States, the President of the Senate, the eminent L. S. Foster. poets and litterateurs of the country, and leading citizens Emerson, Whittier, Longfellow, Lowell, Bryant. of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Chicago. The press also cordially endorsed the movement, which was so quietly initiated that Mr. Garrison knew nothing of it for several weeks, and was taken utterly by surprise when it was announced to him. The following is a transcript of the circular to the Public: National Testimonial to William Lloyd Garrison. The accomplishment of the Great Work of Emancipation in the United States directs our minds to the duty of some fit public recognition of the man who must in all future time

Chinaman (Ms. Feb. 28), closely dissecting and answering Blaine's charges, and another from W. H. Besse, a New Bedford sea-captain, who testified warmly in favor of the Chinese, from thirty years knowledge of them (Ms. Feb. 27). From San Francisco came an unexpected letter from John A. Collins (ante, 2: 277), from whom Mr. Garrison had heard nothing directly or indirectly for many years, and a pleasant correspondence and interchange of photographs followed. To his friend A. J. Grover of Chicago, Mr. Garrison wrote (Ms. March 7): It is essentially the old anti-slavery issue in another form—whether one portion of mankind may rightfully claim superiority over another on account of birth, descent, or nativity, or for any other reason, and deny to them those rights and interests which pertain to our common humanity. After the successful struggle to emancipate the Southern bondmen from their chattelized condition and to elevate them to the plane of American citizenship, I did not imag
