The secession of the Free Church of Scotland from the Established Church was consummated is excuse, perhaps, in the fact that religious Scotland was just then greatly exercised by the news trd announcing the lectures, and carried it to Scotland, that it might serve to explain the difficultded all over Auld Reekie. Not a newspaper in Scotland could abstain from the melee, at Lib. 16.87.t against the foul deed of the Free Church of Scotland, in putting into its treasury the price of blo the South to get money. The Free Church of Scotland is, like democratic America, stained with bloood in its treasury. Oh! that Free Church of Scotland! I am for freedom everywhere, and rejoice thhurch (one of the largest religious bodies in Scotland) committed to James N. Buffum, on his return n in the chair as President of the League.

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. On December 11, 1846, Mr. Garrison wrote to Geo. W. Benson (Ms.): The Garrisonian ranks are filling up. This morning, dear Helen presented me with a new-comer into this breathing world,—a daughter,—and the finest babe ever yet born in Boston! On Dec. 19 he informed S. J. Ma

Lib. 17: 70, in which Mr. Garrison justifies the reception of money from the South towards the relief of the famine-stricken population of Ireland. to enlist for the overthrow of slavery, by moral instrumentalities, all that is disinterested, humane, and free; to vindicate the American Anti-Slavery Society and its kindred auxiliaries from the aspersions of their betrayers and defamers, andrrison was melted to tears by the frequent sight of human wretchedness and suffering along the road. Arrived in Dublin on October 5, he rejoined Henry C. Wright at the home of the Webbs, who could ill reconcile themselves to his limited stay in Ireland. Only one public meeting could be arranged, but his review of the Evangelical Ms. Oct. 13, 1846, R. D. Webb to W. L. G. Alliance raised a salutary storm in the Pharisaism of Dublin. It was during this visit to Dublin that Mr. Garrison sat f

ration is out of the question. I do not think, after the treatment that I have received, that I shall attend another session. Not that the Convention at all sympathized with Kirk, for they did not; but they were afraid of giving offence, or of getting into a controversy on another topic, aside from the object which had specially brought them together. Still, they behaved quite unfairly, and are under too much management to suit me—though Henry Clapp, Editor of the Pioneer (lately the Essex Co. Washingtonian, owned by Christopher Robinson) at Lynn, Mass., and one of the most virulent of Rogers's supporters (Lib. 14: 206; 15: 2, 23, 42; Ms. Dec. 14, 1844, Quincy to R. D. Webb). notwithstanding his horror of an organized meeting on our side of the Atlantic, can act as Secretary, and discover nothing to dislike or censure!

s and defamers, and as worthy of the most entire confidence and the most liberal encouragement; to avow principles which lay the axe at the root of all injustice, oppression, and war; and to labor for the overthrow of whatever stands opposed to the kingdom of peace and holiness. This programme was carried out to the letter; but, as in both his previous visits to England, the main object Lib. 17.13. was overruled and became subordinate. Shipwreck, from striking on a reef while making Halifax Lib. 16.123. harbor in a fog, was narrowly avoided, and the voyage completed in a leaking vessel. Richard Webb, the last to bid him adieu in 1840, was waiting anxiously at Ante, 2.404; Liverpool to greet his return, Webb had been remembered by his faithful correspondent, Edmund Quincy, who wrote by the hand of Garrison (Ms. July 14, 1846): You will be glad enough to see the bearer of this, that is, if he don't forget to deliver it to you or post it to you. The Pioneer may be depended

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 greatest and meanest of his countrymen

There was Maria Chapman, too, 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.

A preliminary British conference had been held at Birmingham, attended by Scotch members who had already given public notice Lib. 16.67. that slaveholders must be excluded from the London gathering. Dr. Candlish, an eminent Free Church leader, Rev. Robert S. Candlish. craftily procured the adoption ofce the great object I have in view; and though with me day is turned into night, and night into day, I continue to keep in good health—which fact will give you as much comfort as any that I could possibly send you. The next excursion was to Birmingham, with Thompson Sept. 4, 1846. and Douglass, where, besides a good public meeting, there was a memorable breakfast with Joseph Sturge, on his invitation. In the presence of a considerable number of his relatives, wrote Mr. Garrison to his wif

nd by similar demonstrations all over the United Kingdom up to his sailing for home on November 4, admittedly constrained the British branch, when organizing at Manchester on that very date, to Lib. 16.198. exclude slaveholders from membership—albeit leaving their personal Christianity an open question. Ashurst expressly declared of this Manchester resolution: We owe this check to their backsliding to you. No one mixed up with them in daily intercourse would have been so free from restraining influences as yourself and friends, nor, but for your mission, should we have had the necessary facts as to the American priests upon authority; and upon personalool, and took him directly to Wrexham, in Wales, Lib. 17.11. to meet an engagement at the Town Hall, which was packed till midnight.

They are true men, vouched Mr. Garrison, who will stand by us to the last—men who have been cast into prison in this country, and confined therein (the former one year, the latter twenty months), for pleading the cause of the starving operatives in this country, and contending for universal suffrage. Such men I honor and revere. At Newport, Wales, 1839-40. Lovett, in his Life and struggles (London, 1876), speaking of his new American acquaintances in 1846, says, p. 321: During our friends' visit, I recall to memory a very delightful evening spent with them and other friends, at the house of Mr. J. H. Parry [Lib. 17: 51]. On that occasion we had not only a very interesting account of the anti-slavery movement and its prominent advocates in America, but our friend Douglass, who had a fine voice, sang a number of negro melodies,
