litionist stood on a platform high at least as that of heathen philosophy. Let justice be done, though the heavens fall. Not that they feared that the heavens would fall; for justice must be done. They had heard that demands were made that Massachusetts should repeal her personal liberty bills. (Loud applause and hisses.) It was proposed that the servants of the slave power might do true allegiance to the demon they serve; but these bills cannot be repealed except right be sacrificed to expo. H. Hoyt came forward to speak. Mr. Hoyt is quite a young man, and acted as one of John Brown's counsel in his trial for the Harper's Ferry raid. He commenced by saying, "I think Garrison spoke the sentiments of the anti-slavery people of Massachusetts, when he said, 'I will not equivocate — I will not surrender a single inch.' That is what he would say to this mob." The noise was still continued, the crowd becoming if possible more boisterous than before. For several minutes the tumu

But nothing would stop the furious disposition of the disturbers of the meeting.--The police stood quietly by, looking on. Presently another camp meeting hymn was started, and the people in the gallery having nothing better to do, began to pitch the cushions of the seats upon the audience below, in the midst of yelling and howling as ferocious as that of frontier Indians, the people dodging about to escape the blows from the cushions. Then there was increased confusion, the meeting being at a perfect stand still. The Temple was completely in the hands of the mob, which increased every moment. Mr. Edmund Quincy, the acting chairman, now came to the front of the platform, howling out as loudly as possible in such an uproar, "If the police have been instructed by the Mayor to stand up and do their duty, they will proceed to disperse this mob."

Another speaker came forward and endeavored to make himself heard, but he was treated to a hymn to the tune of "Dixie's Land." As there was no help for it, the gallery boys were left to themselves, and such a storm of hissing and howling as they kept up for half an hour has rarely been heard. At length Geo. H.

After waiting two hours in a pelting snow storm, for the re-opening of the hall, the crowd broke into separate parties and gradually dispersed. About two hundred of the crowd visited the residence of Mr. Philips, in Essex street, and threatened to "clean him out," but Deputy Chief of Police Ham, with a squad of policemen, prevented the outrage, and made several arrests.

Laughter, and an uproarious applause, followed by loud hissing. Burleigh continued his speech, not a word of which escaped the Boston reporters, who regarded it as something very fresh. The howling and yelling at length became so furious that even patient Burleigh had to retreat. Such a hubbub and confusion ensued as is perfectly indescribable.
