! country, whose GoSeFnnsat, under q false and
! trcacherous pretence Of cooperating with Great
! Britain for the suppression of one Of The forms OF
this execrnble system OF Snvtry, has been no. for
| n series of years pursuing and maturing q counter
acton OF the purpose OF Universal Emancipation,
and organizing an opposite system for The main,e
nance, preservation, propagation and perpeiuaon Of
! Slavery throughout The cath.


For the last fifteen years this unhaliowed purrose
has been constantly, perseyerngly and unbInshing-
y persisted in, with periinacty OF exertion and
perhdy IN the use ol means never surpassed by any
conspiracy ever formed against the Liberties OF man
kind. The dismcmberment OF the neighboring Re-
public OF Mexico, the reinstiution Of Slavery
throughout an immense portion OF her territory and
the purchase or conquest OF California, with the lying
pretension reanUexing Texas TO this Union, have
been, and yet among these proAgate and unprin-
cipled means An absurd and preposiersus attempt
10 pick quarrel with Great Britain upon false and
frivolous pTetencss, another. The utter prosra-
ton of the exclusive Constitutional power Of Con-
gress 10 declare war-he whole compound budget
ofblunders and Of crimes--ihe abortive negotiation
OF treaty oi plunder and robbery, which the Senate
had the common and common honesty alrnosi
unanimously 10 reJect-the giaring ialsehood by
which the Texans themselves were nvegled INTO
the negoliniion-ali these, and many more enormi-
ties OF the deepest dye are but parts and parcels Of
the agony OF Slavery struggling for existence and
perpetuaiion against the awakening conscience Of
mankind.


The ABORTION Of slave T0ngerings diplomacy, mis-
called Treaty. attempted in the last hours OF an ad
minisuaton detesied and dsspised even by lis owp
parisans is the last of this knot of conspirptors
against Human Freedom. Their foul and filthy
purpose has at length been extoried from them. IL

Not until nearly dark did the immense audi
encc disperse. For hours they wcrc riveted TO the
spot by the eloquent speaking and the still more
eloquent music which graccd the occasion, and
it must have taken hundreds TIL long past mid
night 10 reach their homes. The steamer Port
land was anchored in the bay,tw miles from the
shore, waiting to receive the multitude who were
present from Suffolk, Essex and Middescx cour
ties. The General Lincoln WAS employed TO con-
vey the people from the wharf TO the Portland
which she could only do by making two trips =
1t was dark before she discharged her last load
upon the deck Of the Portland, when the latter
commenced her trip to the city. She had not pro-
ceeded more than four or five miles, when dense
foo settled down upon us, and we were under the
painiu necessity of casting anchor for the night
and for how much longer period we could not
tell. We were not less than 1000 in number,
and every part of the boat was so densely crowded
that it was impossible for one half of US to find
even place to sit, much less tolic down. Added
to this VIC had no food on board, and not even
