he was, if not sole a%utocrat, one Of "the pow
meeting long, for after a few lourishes of re-
ligious bombast and senseless vituperation,
in which he took care to let it be known that
he was identified with the Liberty party, his
el1ervosence subsidized.
On Sunday afternoon, after 0 remarks
had been made upon the Constitution, Amber
whose previous conduct our readers are
generally acquainted with-asked if he would
be permitted to speak. Objections were made
to his being considered as included in the
general invitation, because of the course he
had pursued at other meetings Of the kind
He appeared willing to drop the matter when
he ascertained that his speaking would be
cor trary TO the wishes of those who got up
the meeting-and as afterwards appeared by
a vote, Of a majority Of the audience also
for while no one Of them, we presume, would
be willing to deny his right to speak if he
felt it his duty so to do, they were unwilling
to inrite him TO the platform, or TO listen to
him except under protest, for reasons which
he well knew. This, we think, is the right
position, and We are glad it was taken. The
spirit of free discussion does not require that
we shall invite those TO participate in our
meetings whose conduct has been such as to
make us unwilling TO meet them in discus
sion. If such insist upon speaking, and per-
sist in obtruding themselves unlimited upon
the platform, we know of no other course
than submission on our part. There is all the
difference in the world between |inuiiinc a
person TO occupy the platform, and submit
ing to the infliction of a speech from him
when he comes there uninriied. The pro-
%jectors of the meeting, as well as the audi
enco itself, refused to do the first, and we are
glad that Amber did not insist on the 9TH
er.
The weather was favorable most of the
time the Convention was in session, but sew
eral heavy rains satisfied the audience that
neither the tent nor their own clothing were
waterproof. There was created, for the time
being, some confusion in the meeting, but far
less than we anticipated from their occur
renee,

[REPoRrED FOR THE BuGLE.7

Remarks Of Joseph "A. Dugdale, in Ohio Year
ty Needing g Friends, tvhen objections were
offered against the readinS Of his certificate
from Green Plum Monthly Meeting.
If | may be allowed the privilege granted
to Paul before Felix, l will speak for my
self. First, ! am accused of having been
disowned from the Society of Friends. ]
will meet the question by presenting an in
terrogation to this assembly. Did you not,
in common with the body of Friends, during
the difficulties of '27 and '2S, declare that
no meeting in the Society could be laid down
without its consent! Have you not on all
occasions refused to submit to the Judgment
OF your opposers touching this matter? Is
1t not true, that in the noted Shotwell case
in New Jersey, testimony was produced to
show that London Yearly Meeting attempted
to dissolve one of its branches--the meeting
protested against the measure and the Yearly
Meeting finally yielded until the consent Of
said meeting was obtained : will state dis.
tinetly at the outset that, after Ohio Yearly
Meeting listens to the statement | shall make,
should it then be its judgment to continue its
correspondence with the Yearly Meeting OF
Indiana, and reject the communications from
Green Plain, | will withdraw from its coun.
ellis. IF be true, as cannot be controvert-
ed, that in the days of your own peril you as.
sumed the proposition as ! have stated. is it
not as true now as :hen?
The question is emphatically Anti-Slave-
ry. We are denounced, and the hand of pro-
seriptiOn is upon US on account Of our int
rest in the r%eformatory movements Of the age.
1t is asserted that We have violated the Dis
cipline Of the church in signing a disclaimer
against a member Of another Yearly Meeting.
Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1847-09-10
Convention in Salem.

The meeting here exceeded our expecta-
tons "The big tent" was well filled, and
the audience as quiet and attentive as so large
an audience could well be. Our friends Gar
rison and Douglass, though somewhat fa-
tigued with their incessant labor for the past
month, were in good health and spirits.-
We have heard it said that this was the lar
gest anti-slavery gathering ever convened in
the county, nor do we suppose that the
Wings or Democrats of Columbiana can
