At the regular session in December a new Lib. 11.206. gag-rule was promptly applied. Meanwhile, two incidents showed unmistakably the Southern purpose to make pro-slavery and national (or Federal) synonymous terms. One was the reluctance of the Senate, till the North showed itnufacturing political moonshine for a third party. In June, 1841, Mr. Torrey was active in forming in Boston a Vigilance Committee against kidnapping and for the prompt assistance of fugitives closely pursued by their owners (Lib. 11: 94). In December he went to Washington as a newspaper correspondent (Lib. 12: 10; Memoir of C. T. Torrey, p. 87). Those who are curious as to other leading new organizationists will find the above list extended in Lib. 12.127. More pitiful, if not more pictu

The decisive fact appears, that, in less than three months after the transfer had been made, Mr. Knapp failed in business, and conveyed all the property in his hands to his creditors, including his half-interest in the subscription-list of the Liberator. In the fall of 1841, Mr. Ellis Gray Loring effected a purchase of this Oct. 22, 1841; Lib. 12.3. interest for the sum of $25, in order to rid the paper of all embarrassment from a divided ownership. The refusal of this offer would have led to the issue of a new paper, on January 1, 1842, with the title of Garrison's Liberator; and the creditors, being informed of this, gladly consented to make a legal transfer to Mr. Garrison. Knapp's overtures to buy back his interest were of course not entertained. After we separated, continues Mr. Garrison, in reference Ms. May

destruction of their enemies; who, when smitten on the one cheek, turn the other also to the smiter; and who are willing to die for their foes, as did Jesus for his, rather than to imprison, maim, or destroy them! The doctrines defended in the foregoing extracts continued, as heretofore, to be merely subsidiary to Mr. Garrison's lifework. They were the unfailing feeders of his Ante, 2.305. anti-slavery courage, energy, and persistence. We have never, said the editor of the Liberator in June, devoted Lib. 11.99. more of our time to the anti-slavery movement than we have for the last three years.

His inaugural address, with its sophistical argument for the limitation Lib. 11.43. of the powers of Congress over slavery in the District, had been preceded by a speech at Richmond repudiating, Lib. 11.46. as a native Virginian, the slightest sympathy with abolitionism. Tyler's message, on the other hand, made no Lib. 11.62. allusion to the subject. In the confusion caused by an extra session of Congress, the gag-rule was momentarily relaxed, and John Quincy Adams improved the Lib. 11.97, 98, 102, 106, 125. opportunity to reopen his inexhaustible budget of anti-slavery petitions.

More desperately unconstitutional was the proposal of Governor McDonald of Georgia, that even Lib. 11.183. packages from New York or any like offending State should be subjected to inspection, and suspicious persons therefrom be obliged to give security for good behavior— in the midst of a contented slave population. The Governor of Virginia declined to honor Governor Seward's Lib. 11.54. demand for the extradition of a New York forger—a piece of retaliation too dangerous to escape the censure of his own Legislature, though it subsequently passed an inspection law for vessels destined for New York, as Lib. 12.10. did South Carolina. These laws could be suspended by the Executive when New York surrendered the alleged fugitives from justice to Virginia, and its Legislature repealed the act of 1840 extending the right of trial by jury to citizens whose fr
