ept. 16, 1852. Ms. In being at your rescue anniversary on the 1st of October, I was hoping to be able to kill two stones with one bird (as some one has said, in Ireland or out of it),—i. e., to make it incidental to my visit to Pennsylvania, to attend the annual meeting of the State A. S. Society; but as that meeting has been postponed from the first week in October to the last, I shall not be able to carry that plan into effect. I am hesitating, therefore, whether to be with you on the 1st. My presence, with the amount of talent you will not fail to have present on the occasion, can certainly be of no special value; and as the distance and the expense are both considerable (the latter being the most weighty consideration), my conclusion is, that I had better send a letter to be read to the meeting, and abandon the idea of being on the ground bodily. . . . My spirit is exulting in view of the successful proceedings of the Woman's Rights Convention in your city. This is the

opriations for the removal of the free blacks, as being a hindrance to Southern emancipation! (Lib. 22: 37, 38, 78, 139.) The Governor of Alabama followed suit (Lib. 22: 57). The Indiana Legislature actually voted a niggardly sum for the purpose (Lib. 22: 75). Even James G. Birney, despairing of the future of the free blacks, scandalized his old associates by issuing a pamphlet counselling expatriation (Lib. 22: 25, 38). At the annual meeting of the Mass. A. S. Society, in Faneuil Hall, on Jan. 31, Mr. Garrison felt it incumbent on him to make a set speech against colonization (Lib. 22: 30), and was subsequently urged by Wm. Henry Brisbane to prepare an address to the colored people, admonishing them not to be misled by specious arguments in favor of emigrating, nor to lose courage (Ms. Cincinnati, Mar. 26, 1852).

He passed into Maryland and Pennsylvania, and was received by the Legislatures and Governors Lib. 22.11, 15. while a bill was pending in each State to prevent the Lib. 22.14, 33. entrance of free negroes. Traversing Ohio, which disfranchised its black citizens, he essayed his pro-slavery tact first in Kentucky at Covington. The spirit of the South is warm, Feb. 24; Lib. 22.45. he exclaimed; and wherever warmth is, there is life! . . . It is now for the first time that I breathe the air of a Southern State.

Baltimore Conventions, relating to slavery; so that, by no casuistry whatever can a vote cast for either of them be anything else than a direct sanction to slaveholding, slave-breeding, and slave-hunting. None but those who are morally depraved or blind can give such a vote. As Webster, at the Whig Convention, received only a contemptible minority of votes (the largest third from Massachusetts, and not one from any Southern Whig, in spite of his 7th of March abasement—not one, though besought with tears if only as a harmless compliment), Lib. 22.122. so Slavery, between the rival worshippers, emphatically elected for her perfect service the Democratic Party. Like those languid Tritons who, at the wood-nymph's feet, poured Pearls while on land they withered and adored, Webster in the flesh and the Whig party in its name and Lib. 22.174, 175, 179. organization died within a fortnight of each other at the feet of their goddess.

to be the newest excitement of the American people. On March 20, 1852, Mrs. Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin appeared, to mock the legislatures, statesmen, and parties engaged in Lib. 22.62, 65, 94, 102; Pulszky's White, Red, and Black, 1.132, 133. affirming the Compromise measures to be final. It had previously been published piecemeal in the (Washington) National Era. As a serial, Mr. Garrison passed it by, but he devoured the early bound copy placed in his hands, and gave in the Liberator of March 26 his opinion of the novel that was about to take the world by storm, and —party question that the subject of it was to Kossuth—would in five years produce three Hungarian translations: In the execution of her very difficult task, Mrs. Stowe has Lib. 22.50. displayed rare descriptive powers, a familiar acquaintance with slavery under its best and its worst phases, uncommon moral and philosophical acumen, great facility of thought and expression, feelings and emotions of the strongest c

On March 3, 1851, President Fillmore, with the same hand that had signed the Fugitive Slave Law, approved a joint resolution of the very Congress which had passed that law, Lib. 22.2. offering a vessel of the Mediterranean squadron to Kossuth and his fellow-exiles, if they were disposed to profit by this mode of escape. On March 27, Kossuth, at Broussa, Lib. 21.195. indited his grateful acceptance, lavishing upon the United States the most fulsome flattery. May your great example, noble Americans, be to other nations the source of social virtues; your power be the terror of all tyrants, the protector of the distressed, and your free country ever continue to be the asylum of the oppressed of all nations! Long before this address saw the light, the abolitionists had grave cause to dread Kossuth's arrival. Who shal

On April 29, Kossuth made his first speech in Faneuil Hall; and here at length his tongue was free to pronounce Lib. 22.73; Kossuth in New England, p. 82. the name of slavery, while nevertheless confirming his refusal to heed the poet Channing's exhortation: W. E. Channing. But, flying slave, take the slave's part! Lib. 21:[203]. With incredible self-satirization he exclaimed: Cradle of American Liberty! —it is a great name; but Kossuth in New England, p. 87; Lib. 22.73. there is something
