f June 12th, which was a real treat. I have also received a copy of the Anti-Slavery Reporter, The organ of the new American and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society (Lib. 10: 91). and of the Emancipator of 12th ult. Bro. Rogers is exceedingly anxious to hear from his wife, and to get hold of a copy of the Herald of Freedom. The intelligence of the victory over new organization Lib. 10.94. in New Hampshire makes him feel twenty years younger. I do not believe he can be induced to leave his Granite Hills, and take charge of the Anti-Slavery Standard. He shrinks from the post, on account of its vast responsibility, but especially because of his strong attachment for his native State. Our friends will do well to have some other person in view, in case he cannot be induced to leave his little Herald. I shall do what I can to locate him in New York. Nearly all our party are stopping at the same house. We have more invitations than we can meet, and can find no time either to read or writ

Freemasons' Hall, on the subject of India, at which O'Connell, Bowring, Thompson, myself, and others, are expected to speak. On the evening of the same day, there is to be a temperance meeting in Exeter Hall—Rogers is to be among the speakers. Perhaps I may say something on the occasion. On Tuesday, I July 7, 1840. shall go with Rogers down to Ipswich, (70 or 80 miles), to see Clarkson, and get him to come out with a letter against the Colonization Society, if I can. He says Cresson deceived him. Mr. Garrison's engagements prevented his making the intended visit, but in September he had the supreme gratification of publishing in the Liberator (10.154) Clarkson's renunciation of the Colonization Society. He apologized for any shortcomings in his reception of Mr. Garrison in 1833, and showed both how Cresson had hoodwinked him, and how

They are worth saving. Every man who thus goes for his party is doing more injury to the cause than fifty pro-slavery men. Don't fail, I entreat you, to bring up the subject in the Liberator this week. Make something of a flourish of trumpets about it. Before the month ended, the New York State Anti-Slavery Society had gone to pieces—the first fruits of Lib. 10.158. the attempt to put Garrisonian abolitionism in the political traces. As in Munchausen's fable, the Third Party wolf had devoured the abolition horse while running. Meantime, the new Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society in New York city had notified the Massachusetts Board that they were absolutely out of funds, and that fresh collections in the midst of the political turmoil were impracticable

Thence the route led to York and to Newcastle-on-Tyne, for the sake of visiting Harriet Martineau, then writing the Hour and the man, at Tynemouth. In the early morning of July 20, the fellow-travellers, less Thompson and Remond, who had gone before, mounted the coach at the Turf Hotel for Melrose, where the Abbey was explored in the twilight.

Almost the last glimpse we get of Garrison and Herald of Freedom, 6.116. Rogers in London is at a juvenile concert on the evening of July 9, in accordance with the following invitation from the director, which gives the genesis of a wellknown stirring song: W. E. Hickson to W. L. Garrison. July 8, 1840. 12 Park Lane.

Seth M. Gates, a Representative from New York. The following letter, addressed by him to Mr. Garrison on the eve of the Paris World's Anti-Slavery Convention, possesses much interest. It bears date Warsaw, N. Y., April 23, 1867: As you are soon to go to another World's Convention, allow me to send you, by way of reminder, a copy of the circular adopted by a like World's Anti-Slavery Convention held in London June 12th, 1840, addressed to the governors of the slaveholding States of the U. S. of America, and which produced such a sensation in the South because it was forwarded under the frank of a member of Congress.

Mrs. Chapman was delighted to hear about our movements in England, and particularly all we had to say about yourself. She is as buoyant and active in spirit as ever, and, if possible, even more arduous in her labors. Noble woman! There is to be a State Anti-Slavery Convention in New Lib. 10.151.

ernment, as Gov. Polk was pleased to call it [Lib. 10.185], no less than five of these Southern governors either mentioned the outrage in messages to their respective legislatures, or published letters over their own signatures in the newspapers, complaining of this outrageous attack upon Southern institutions. Gov. Pennington, of New Jersey, of all to whom it was addressed, answered it respectfully, and concurred in the general sentiments of the address [Lib. 10.185]. Gov. McDonald, of Georgia, says: This is a subject which, with the object intended to be accomplished by it, admits of no argument; and all who seek to agitate it and carry out the above purpose, either by courting foreign alliances or the use of other means, shall be regarded and treated as public enemies, outlaws and traitors (Ms.).
