was consummated in May, 1843. The grounds of separation involved the voluntary abandonment of State support for the ministers of the denomination, and made necessary the raising of a Sustentation Fund. Before the date in question, therefore, Dr. Chalmers had arranged for an ecumenical collection, of Rev. Thos. Chalmers. which the American contingent was not to be despised.

Charleston, the cradle of lovers of freedom—in the abstract—was very prompt to respond to this appeal. Seven different Evangelical denominations begged the Lib. 14.57. Rev. Thomas Smyth, D. D., to preach a sermon on it and pass the contribution box in his Presbyterian church, which he did, with many touching references to tyranny and oppression, and many tropes in which Liberty cut a pretty figure. This discourse had the desired effect in raising a sum of money, to which the mayor of the city contributed his mite and his name. And so pleased was the schismatic pastor of Free St. David's, Glasgow, that he r

cised by the news that a South Carolina judge had passed Lib. 14.34, 51, 62, 66, 67. sentence of death on a Northern man, John L. Brown, for aiding the escape of a female slave. The incident, except among abolitionists, See Whittier's poem and prefatory note on this incident on p. 89, vol. 3, of his Writings, ed. 1888. created no excitement in this Lib. 14.67. country.

ow connected with this Ante, 2.377. periodical. On Sept. 10, 1846, Mr. Garrison wrote to his wife (Ms.): Mary Howitt has completed her autobiography of me for the People's Journal. The solecism was felicitous, for the sketch which appeared in No. 37 of that magazine, accompanied by a villanous portrait on wood (Lib. 18: 22), was based on data furnished by him, and is fairly to be called autobiographic. It has been already cited (ante, 1.13-15). It was copied in part in the National A. S. Standard (7.96, 100), and in full in the Pennsylvania Freeman of Mar. 25, 1847. Readers of the first two volumes of the present work will notice some slight discrepancies in Mrs. Howitt's narrative, as was to be expected under the circumstances. At the home of the Howitts, at Clapton, Mr. Garrison met the German poet of freedom, Ferdinand Freiligrath, then a refugee, and was delighted with the modesty of his deportment and the beauty of his character (Lib. 18: 110).

rt of the world. This proved very obnoxious, especially to the American delegates, the Rev. E. N. Kirk saying, with perfect truth, that it would hazard the very existence of the Alliance. It was accordingly withdrawn; but the next day the Rev. J. Howard Hinton, editor of the Anti-Slavery Reporter, moved the exclusion of slaveholders from the Alliance, and one voice from across the water was heard to second it, that of J. V. Lib. 16:[154], 185, 190.

Mr. Hinton, who had made one of the Committee, moved the adoption of its report, and the Conference gladly accepted the seeming settlement of the vexed question. Two days later, at Freemasons' Hall, protests from the American delegates were presented,
Biglow Papers (search for this): chapter 6
Davis (Ms. Jan. 8, 1847): ‘I wonder if you enjoyed his description of the Fair as much as I did. I saw Garrison the other day, and he seemed to be especially pleased with it, and the account of Stephen Foster delighted him. Of that and Maria Chapman he spoke most particularly. Miller made one error, and only one, in his copy, and that was sweet instead of swift eyes. Mrs. Chapman's eyes are not sweet, but swift expresses exactly their rapid, comprehensive glance.’ The author of the Biglow Papers had already begun that inimitable satire of the national crime against Mexico, marked, so far, by Taylor's military successes at Lib. 16.82, 167. Matamoras and Monterey. The demoralization which war immediately produces as a mere status, was lamentably shown by the compliance of the Whig governors Briggs Geo. N. Briggs, Wm. Slade. and Slade (of Massachusetts and Vermont respectively) with the President's request for a State call for volunteers. Lib. 16.87, 90, 91, 113. This action di

I had yet to perform much, fully to deserve them. A breakfast by invitation with George Combe, perhaps on Oct. 22, in company with Thompson, Douglass, and Buffum, was another pleasurable incident of this visit to Edinburgh ( Life of Douglass, ed. 1882, p. 245). On November 4, Mr. Garrison sailed from Liverpool on the Acadia. A large party of friends—representatives Lib. 16.201. of the three kingdoms—who had gathered the night before expressly to bid him farewell at the house of Richard Rathbone, waved him their long adieus. The voices of Thompson and Webb and H. C. Wright swelled the cheering led by Frederick Douglass. More than twenty years would elapse before the voyager's eye should again behold the pleasant English shores now vanishing behind him. From Halifax on the eleventh Ms. Nov. 15, 1846. day he pencilled a line to Elizabeth Pease, informing her of the smooth and safe passage, attended, nevertheless, with more than the ordinary discomforts for his overtaxed system

With her swift eyes of clear steel-blue, The coiled — up mainspring of the Fair, Originating everywhere The expansive force without a sound That whirled a hundred wheels around, Herself meanwhile as calm and still As the bare crown of Prospect Hill; Somerville, Mass. A noble woman, brave and apt, Cumaea's sybil not more rapt, Who might, with those fair tresses shorn, The Maid of Orleans' casque have worn, Herself the Joan of our Ark, For every shaft a shining mark. And there, too, was Eliza Follen, Who scatters fruit-creating pollen Where'er a blossom she can find Hardy enough for Truth's north wind, Each several point of all her face Tremblingly bright with the inward grace, As if all motion gave it light Like phosphorescent seas at night. There jokes our Edmund, plainly son E. Quincy.

ting Briggs, nor did Robert C. Winthrop's acceptance of the Ante, p. 139. war afford a sufficient handle to the Conscience Whigs (as Ms. Sept. 30, 1846, F. Jackson to W. L. G. Charles Francis Adams denominated those who were not Cotton Whigs) to deprive him of a renomination. The Cotton Whigs swept the State. One heard Daniel Webster proclaim in Faneuil Hall: I am for the Constitution as our fathers left it to us, and standing by it and dying by it. Lib. 16.182. But also one heard John Quincy Adams, from his home in Quincy, deny that there was anything left to Lib. 16.194. stand by: The Constitution of the United States—stat magni nominis umbra. This quotation, said the editor of the Liberator, indicates pretty clearly the position and Lib. 16.194. feelings of this venerable statesman in regard to the American Union. . . . Then if it be only a shadow that is left to us, it is at best but a mockery, and ought not to be treated as a reality. . . . Let Daniel Webster, the greates

on Dec. 19, 1846 (Ms.): I am under great obligations to Francis Bishop, William James, H. Solly, Philip Carpenter, George Harris, and other Unitarian clergymen, and have formed for them a strong personal friendship, which they appear heartily to reciprocate. By a letter just received from my dear friend Bishop, he informs me that, since I left, his wife has given birth to a daughter, whom they have named Caroline Garrison Bishop. This is an indication of their personal regard for me. James Martineau was absent from Liverpool when I was there, and I did not see him. I was told that he is considerably prejudiced against the true anti-slavery band in this country, and sympathizes with such men as Drs. [Orville] Dewey and [Francis] Parkman. I meant to have visited Harriet [Martineau], at Ambleside, before my return; but she left for Egypt a few days before I sailed, and I missed the coveted opportunity. I saw her mother and sister at Newcastle [Lib. 16: 187]. As to the second of the
