ow in operation. It has been eminently serviceable in encouraging the free colored population, in various places, to go forward in paths of improvement, and organize themselves into moral and benevolent associations. . . . An Auxiliary Society has been formed in the Theological P. 43. Seminary at Andover. A society, based upon the same principles, has also been formed in Hudson College, Ohio, under the auspices of the President and Professors; and also a kindred association in Lynn, Massachusetts. Other societies, it is expected, will be speedily organized in Portland, Providence, Bath, Hallowell, New Haven, and other places. The light which has burst forth so auspiciously in the West, is the harbinger of a mighty victory. At this very time, according to Benton (Thirty years view, 1.341), there was no sign of a slavery agitation. Much greater reason had Mr. Garrison to be elated and strengthened by the extraordinary events of the year now drawing to a close. The pers

an so gentle and peaceful was the man he had supposed a monster, he wept (Mrs. Elizabeth Buffum Chace to F. J. G., Ms. August, 1881). This story is told, anonymously, in the fifth of Angelina Grimkeas Letters to Catherine Beecher (Lib. 7.123). Pennsylvania, Thomas Shipley, the intrepid foe of slaveholders and kidnappers, Edwin P. Atlee, whose end, like Shipley's and Evan Lewis's, was lamentably near at hand, Thomas Whitson, James Mott, Bartholomew Fussell, and other less known (Hicksite) Friendsdelphia, whose talents and gentlemanly deportment have won the esteem of all who know him. We wish that many who we know have unwittingly circulated colonization slanders against the free people of color, could become acquainted with Mr. P. of Pennsylvania, said he was grateful to God for the day. He felt to pour out the speaking gratitude of his soul to the Convention, for the spirit they had manifested during the session, and especially during the pending of this resolution. He most heartily

I made a short speech: Graham backed out; and the resolutions were passed with a roar like that you may sometimes hear in the Bay of Fundy. On my way out, I was completely surrounded, lifted off my feet, and carried by storm into a cellar, and, by the time we were seated at the table, out sprang half a score of bowieknives, and as many pistols; and at least a dozen cards were handed me, with Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina, under the names. They had proposed, a few minutes before, to go after Garrison, to some church, where they were told he was to be found; and went so far as to say that, when I called for him, if he had appeared on the platform, they would have rowed him up Salt River. And then they asked me if I had not seen their handbill. I had not, nor heard it mentioned; but it seems that in the afternoon they had issued a poster, calling upon the men of the South to be present at the meeting, wh

To George W. Benson, at Providence, Mr. Garrison wrote: W. L. Garrison to George W. Benson. Boston, Novabled to get to the Convention in Philadelphia! This morning they start for Providence—from thence they propose going to Canterbury—and from thence to New Haven, whey will take the steamboat for New York. They will probably tarry one day in Providence, and I dare presume that between you and brother Prentice, John Prentice. take the stage to-morrow for P., and arrive there in the evening. Be good Providence, R. I. enough, if you can conveniently, to call at the City Hotel, at the houts.

The proposition was accepted by the defendant in accordance with the pithy advice of Mr. Benson—You know that the result of a lawsuit (however just) is very uncertain, but the expense is certain—and of his counsel. John Parish, Esq. A special interest attaches to the following extract from a letter addressed by William Goodell to Mr. Garrison under date of New York, Nov. 14, 1833: I have this moment received a letter from my brother-in-law, Roswell C. Smith, of Hampton, Conn. (the well-known author of an Arithmetic, a Grammar, etc., published by booksellers in Boston), who is a warm friend of Miss Crandall's School and of the Anti-Slavery Cause. He writes to suggest that it would be, in his opinion, of service to you and the Cause to employ a lawyer well acquainted in the neighborhood and zealously attached to the Cause. Such a person he considers Lafayette Foster, Esq., a young attorney, just settled in Hampton, and well known in all that region. (Hampton<

r the banishment of our free colored population to the African coast. The same phenomenon has been observed in Brazil. O trabalho todo dos esclavagistas consistiu sempre em identificar o Brazil com a escravidao. Quem a ataca é logo suspeito de connivencia com o estrangeiro, de inimigo das instituicoes do seu proprio paiz. . . . Atacar a Monarchia, sendo o paiz monarchico, a religiao, sendo o paiz Catholico, é licito a todos; atacar, porem, a escravidao, è traicao nacional e felonia (Joaquim Nabuco, O Abolicionismo, p. 192; and see pp. 248, 249). Such an identification of slavery with the whole people was, in the mouths of Northerners, to stultify their inquiry, What have we to do with slavery? They esteem it no disgrace to debase, lacerate, plunder and kidnap two millions of slaves, and tread upon the necks of half a million free colored citizens; but it is foul slander, in their impartial judgment, to declare before a British audience that such conduct is in the highest degree hy

He was a forerunner of Abolition, to quote his epitaph—an early and independent opponent of slavery; publishing in 1816 at his own expense a small volume on its horrors, and circulating it in Congress and among State Legislatures. A last word of this strong and benevolent character may fitly close the present chapter: John Kenrick to W. L. Garrison. Newton, Dec. 24, 1832. Ms. dear sir: I perceive you are an agent for Mr. B. Lundy. I have supported that work from the beginning, and believe I have honestly paid up to the present time; but as he expects pay in advance, I send you $1.00 for him.
