There are many more A. S. Whigs and Democrats than Ms. Mar. 28, 1847. Third Party men, and many more Whig papers, especially, which are more thoroughly anti-slavery than any of the Third Cf. Lib. 17.170. Party ones. There is not a Third Party paper that compares in thoroughness and usefulness with the Boston Whig, or even the N. Y. Tribune. And they have not a man who comes near Charles F. Adams (son of J. Q. A.), editor of the Whig, Charles Sumner, J. G. Palfrey, S. G. Howe, Stephen C. Phillips, and others of the A. S. Whigs, in point of character, talent, or social standing. These gentlemen are high-minded, honorable, well-educated men, who would compare favorably with any public men you have in Parliament. And they have actually sacrificed political prospects and caste by their A. S. course, which is more than can be said of a single Third Party man—because I know of none who had anything of the sort to lose. Yet we cannot admit these men—though so much better abolition

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 did not prevent the party from renominating 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.

y triumphant one. The vast hall was densely crowded, and presented a brilliant spectacle. The interest and feeling manifested by the vast audience were of no ordinary character. Many of the friends, and some of the members, of the Alliance were present, some of them in no very amicable state of mind towards us. None of the American delegation showed their heads. I spoke first, after some excellent prefatory remarks from the Lib. 16.165; London Patriot, Sept. 17, 1846. chairman, the Rev. John Burnet, a very able and independent man. My speech was frequently interrupted by a certain portion of the audience, in a rowdyish manner, something after the pattern we occasionally exhibit in Boston and elsewhere. My remarks frequently stung to the quick, and the snakes hissed and twisted as though they felt that the hour of doom had come. Still, the applause overpowered all the opposition—but the interruption was very considerable, and made my speech less consecutive than it otherwise w

Cox, who had long since Ante, 1.461, 485. abandoned the abolition ranks in the time of the sectarian division. See his resentment (before the New School General Assembly at Philadelphia in June, 1846) at the republication of a letter of his dated Auburn, N. Y., Feb. 10, 1836, and addressed to a brother minister, in which he hesitated not a moment to say that, other things being equal, a slaveholder of any description ought to be excluded from the communion of the churches (Lib. 16: 185; Penn. Freeman, June 11, 1846, p. 2). They commended to the consideration of the Lib. 16:[154]. several branches of the Alliance social evils like the profanation of the Lord's Day, intemperance, duelling, and the sin of slavery, with the hope that no branch would admit slaveholders who, by their own fault, continue in that position, retaining their fellow-men in slavery from regard to their interests!

May to his friend on his return, that you should have been in England to attend the burial of Clarkson, as you were of his co-worker Wilberforce. Lib. 16.194. But inism is as odious in this country as infidelity is in ours; but, thus far, those who have most zealously espoused my mission have been the Unitarians. Ms. To S. J.

Generous friends could and did gratefully relieve the one; Mss. Jan. 1, 1846, W. L. G. to Mrs. Louisa Loring; Jan. 6, Ann and Wendell Phillips to W. L. G. and wife; Jan. 12, W. L. G. to F. Jackson; Jan. 21, S. Philbrick to W. L. G. Mr. Phillips wrote: I owe you, dear Garrison, more than you would let me express, and, my mother and wife excepted, mnciple. I go for free trade and free intercommunication the world over, and deny the right of any body of men to erect geographical or national barriers in opposition to these natural, essential, and sacred rights’ (M.

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.

This will probably be agreed upon at the close of our meeting this evening. Thus far, everything here looks auspiciously. Among other friendships cemented in Bristol on this Ms. Sept. 3, 1846, M.

To mingle much with this denomination abroad was a novel experience for Mr. Garrison. On September 10, 1846, he wrote to his wife: Unitarianism is as odious in this country as infidelity is in ours; but, thus far, those who have most zealously espoused my mission have been the Unitarians.

Edmund Quincy judged it at Lib. 16.174, 175. this time to be on its last legs; and the fall elections showed that it could send only five Representatives out of Lib. 16.194. 232 to the Massachusetts lower House, polling a total vote of about 10,000.
