Ii is the prevailing impression, Ii quor!ers
where the facts of The Gaze ere not understood,
that almost or quite the entire body Of Abolition
lists are included in the corrup: faction styling
itself tho Liberty party, of which Brney Leavitt,
Morris, and cthes intriguing Loco Focos, are the
lsadere This, however, lie great mistake. II
is no more than justice to say, that the ant.S!e.
very movement, however unwise or ill-judged it
may be esteemed, did not in its origin contemplate
the formation of Political party. MIR. CARR
son, the originator Of the movement, with many
OF his leading associates, have ever been, and
still arc, irreconcilebiy hostile to the schemes Of
Leayitt end Birney, having no more confidence in
the integrity of these marplots than the Wings
themselves. They are not, indeed, Whigs-ia
fact most of them take no part whatever IN poll
tics, being restrained from doing so by conscien-
tious scruples but they have altogether too much
principle not to abhor the disgraceiul conduct OF
the Loco. Focos of the North, who, with proies-
sions of Freedom on their lips, and by the corrupt
connivance of the m;snamed Liberty party, have
placed the Country in the hands of the friends Of
Perpetual Slavery. To show the view which is
taken of this subject by the class OF persons to
whom we REFER we copy from the Liberator the
following remarks of its Editor, VIM. Lloyd Gar
rison, on the results of the Massachusetts election
Although mere lockers on, in regard 10 this cleo
ton we canne, refrain from expressing our gratlt-
cation at the strong verdict which Massachusetts
has given by il against the annexation o! Texas In
this State more, perhaps, than IN anT other, the

Notwithstanding the Democratic party, lhrous h
their Senators and Representatives III the Leeisla-
tRre, had repeatedly, emphaticaty and unanimously
denounced the project ss highly dangerous uncon-
stutionsl, and subyersive OF the integrity of the
Uniop,-as soon as their idol, Martin Van Buren,,
was thrown overheard by the Baltimore Convention
and James h. Polk placed at the helm OF American
Democracy, they, with unexampled ser,iiiry,
astounding prohigacy and unblushiDg hardihood, al
once hcs,ed the 'i4ono Star, and III all their pro-
cessions, and on sil other occasions, made i, the
symbol OF their faith. and the obj If their forts.
Awfuliy corrupt as is the political history OF this
country, no act Of party hypocrisy ami ,urpitude
can be found 10 match this. The overwhelming Ge.
feat which they have experienced is righteous re-
tribu,on upon them, Tor bcwing the knee baseiy
to the dark spirit OF slavery. How have they
polluted their laps with falsehood, and made their
Democratic prSteasous Kissing, sadcoyersd them
ccme rs jealous N the cause cfb-.,y as they have
bseu in the service Of Southern ryrsu,s.
The Liberty party, it will be seen, il spite oil its
great swelling speeches, its lofty pre,ensions, lis
sanguine predictions, is expensive snd laborious
efforts, has made scaic@ly any progress in this
