Great Abolition Meeting at the Tabern,


Aboonsts of this city got up red hot abolition meet
iag last night the Tabernacle.
At an early hosr this large building was crammed in
every part whites and blacks together and large pro-
portoa Of the assemblage females. The meeting
was addressed by a colored clergyman and several
white brethren and during the whole affair, there

mobiles who cried, hats off in front-and gave the
speakers occasionally round Of applause. They also
made many discordant Understanding the laugh OF

the person who at the addressing it.
This is highly reprehensible. The fanatics Of this
city, endeavorng make handle of the death of
Mr.. Lovejoy, work out dissemination of their prin-
ciples which Enlightened people have declared and
believe upon the conviction which the knowledge Of the
character Of black population gives them, be wild
and impraccable for any thing but theory. IL is this
opposition this spirit of mobism, which gives strength
the fanatics that they could otherwise possess BY
reasoning they gain ground their ideas, as they
wish, cannot be carried out
1t is only when the fanatic oppressed that the feel
ing which enlists in humanity in favor of the weak
against the strong makes him friends.
The meeting last night was, we have said before
to carry the principles immediate emancipation OF
the blacks and the speaker took great merit to himself
in acknowledging that the abolitoniats confessed they
could not do this Of themselves, and therefore called
upon the Shareholders to do It.

When men propose to treat upon subject it is ne
cessary that they should have perfect knowledge of
that subject. When they propose to make a great
change il is essential that they should understand how
that change will operate--what will be the consequent

otherwise the good which they propose and wish may

As regards Mr.. Loveoy, there can be no question
that he had undoubted right print and publish
down all who attacked him in defence of his rights
