Our slaves subsist more comfortably than the populace and peasantry of Europe. . . . I acknowledge the sophistry, but mourn that it should have so much foundation. Notice also that Mathew Carey had published in 1796 St. George Tucker's Dissertation on Slavery; with a Proposal for the Gradual Abolition of it in the State of Virginia, bearing this epigraph from Montesquieu: Slavery not only violates the Laws of Nature and of Civil Society, it also wounds the best forms of government: in a Democracy, where all men are equal, slavery is contrary to the spirit of the Constitution. whose dictum was: We may, therefore, fairly conclude the object of Ibid., p. 83. immediate, universal emancipation wholly una

The choice marked the dominance of the same positive and aggressive spirit that put the Liberator and not the Safety-Lamp at the head of the movement for immediate emancipation. The preamble was referred for revision to another committee, Consisting of Messrs. Sewall, Garrison, Blanchard, and Snelling. to be reported to an adjourned meeting appointed for the evening of Friday, January 6, in the school-room under the African Baptist Church, in Belknap Street. Of that adjourned meeting, says Mr. Johnson, my recollections are very vivid. A fierce northeast storm, combining snow, rain and hail in about equal proportions, was raging, and the streets were full of slush. They were dark, too, for the city of Boston in those days was very economical of light on Nigger hill. The north side of Beacon Hill, and the colored settlement of Boston par excellence. It almost se

By Union he, of course, meant harmonious action among the colored people themselves; not that Union, and less and less every day that Constitution, for which Webster went as they were I go for the Constitution as it is, and for the Union as it is (Second speech on Foot's Resolution, Jan. 26, 1830).—slave representation and all—saying: It is the original bargain, the compact; let it stand.
