posed them-whether it is based upon rational
principles or at war with common sense, and, we
had almost said, common honesty. The author
of the Connecticut Black Law is unquestionably

Cambridge Borough, Sept 1lth, 1889.
FRIEND KNApP,-I have at length reached this,
place. which have not before seen for seventeen,
years. Great changes have in that space Of time,
taken place, both as to persons and things. Lee
tured at Morrisville on Saturday last, to goodly
audience, on the subject Of immediate emancipa-.
ton. The audience heard a,tentively. Judge
N (iberty having been given for remarks)
made some very spirited ones against The course
of the abolitonists, viz. that they were breaking
up churches, going contrary to. the constitutions
and lastly, that Thomas Jefferson was Colonial
tonist When he was asked to point out the Sec,
ton Of the constitution, we violated, ne was num-,

me "gladly," and urged me to. come again as

Senator Morris, speech.

We beg the reader will not throw down this
splendid speech unread, because it is long one.
Read it attentively, and then say what paragraph
might have been omitted. We have read it three
times, with profit and pleasure. 1t embraces, as
will be seen, recapitulation of all the arguments
in Mr. Clay's celebrated speech in favor of slave
Try, and is capital expose of the whole budget
of fne-spun fallacies brought forward by the Ken
lucky Shareholder Mr.. Morris could not have
chosen better topic for a valedictory speech on
the eve of his retirement from the Senate. We
have for years held this man in high regard. His
profession of democracy amounts TO something
more than enrolment. He has no need to adver-
tise the public of his political Creed so far at least
as concerns the great question of human rights.

to have been referred and acted upon. Such was
my object day or two since, when laid on your
table resolution to refer them to committee for
inquiry. You did not suffer it, sir to be printed.

people whom represent, and those who caused
to be printed the petition from the city 1t cannot

both cases The exclusive Legislation of Congress

act, have the people within the District submitted

that the majority, in refusing to receive and refer
petitions, did not intend to destroy or impair the
right in this particular. They certainly have
done so. Remainder mcrt meek)

A QUESTION OF FACT. Some of our editorial
friends and their correspondents, over the noun
TAM are IN debate as to certain proceedings in the
late antl-savery meeting at Middebury. Among
the resolutions discussed and adopted by that body,
was onA recognizing the duty of voting as well as
talking and praying against slavery The point
in dispute is, not whether the resolution was adopt-
ed, but what degree of unanimity was manifested
on this question. The Peoples Press, and the
Vermonter, both intimate, that though there were
only three or four dissenting votes, still MAORI
ty of the aboitionists present, were, at heart OPP
posed to the resolution. We are wholly unable
to conceive how any one who was in the Meho.
dist Westinghouse, with his eyes open, when the
vote was taken, can entertain such belief. If any
resolution was passed during the meeting with an
emphasis and unanimity of expression amounting
to acclamaon it was that on the sub ect of Uoting
This was and is our belief, and we doubt if dozen
persons can be found to call it in question. That
partizans of Mr. Clay should feel a little FESTIVE
after such vote, does not surprise us; but abo-
ltionists have right to expect better things from
the apologists of shareholders than palpabe mis-
statements of public proceedings.
