Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1850-02-16

ter to leave the balance even between the
two races; fourthly, to bring closer to the
Southern conscience the indignation and
moral rebuke of the age, now confused and
restrained by fuse of these States; and
lastly, to bring 10 bear on the institution OF
slavery those principles of the relative value
of free and slave labor, of the Interchangeable
connection of national prosperity with popu-
lar progress and the elevation of the masses,
which has swept chattelism from Europe,
and will put an end TO IL here whenever the
break-water ofthis Union, which now shields
the South from their reach, is removed.
Q. Resolved, That we record with sadness
the total want of consistency Of conduct,
frankness and independence on the part of
Father MATHEW in relation to slavery; that
every one must see his seryile and fawning
letter TO Judge Lumpkin sets the seal to
all we inferred or feared from his inter-
view with MIR. Garrison; and that if any
one then thought our language severe and
exaggerated, such must acknowledge now
that his rising genius has slnned up to
our song and that though we confess that
American slavery, covered with the blood of
hundred battles, and the cypress of as ma
ny victories, las never achieved more pal
pable and disgraceiu one than when she
chained the illustrious Father to her car, still
we rejoice to know that when he sacrificed
his convictions to selfish case and spurious
Temperance, he flung away the love and
confidence of Millions; that the prospects of
the system of human bondage are so dark,
that the brightest fame is eclipsed when it
sinks into the night of that embrace; and
that the timid and recreant Apostle OF one
Reform lies shorn of all his Influence in the
lap of his Deliah.
PARKER PLLsBURY offered the following
Resolution:
10. Resolved, That if any thing he want
ing to perfect this nations character as the
most gigantic and unblushing hypocrite that
ever deserved the universal cxecration of the
world, it is most abundantly supplied in the
pretended sympathy for the fallen Hungari-
ans, now so disgustingy poured forth from
the unhallowcd lips of Zachary Taylor, Lew
is Cass, Daniel Webster, and other repre-
sentatives of this nation, whose tyrannies and
crimes are unparalleled in the history of all
the Austras and Russias of the Old World;
and we cannot but believe, that if Hungary
knows no more of true Liberty than to ask
or accept the sympathies of such overgrown
tyrants, she had far better return TO her ale
giance to Austria, until a longer submission
shall have better fitted her for its enjoyment.
SAMUEL MAY, Jr., offered the following:
ii. Resolved, That, admiring the fearless
ness, the fidelity TO principle, and the just
discernment OF SlaveIy's true nature and its

The following were offered by Mr.. Garri-
son:
Resolved That il is with deep regret we
perceive that the poet LoNGFELLOw has
toA Lis Ena Y,naficol uanine In attln-
giZe the blood-sta American Union as
ireighted with the hopes and interests of HUI
manity-as being a noble ship, invulnerable
to the rock and proof against the storm, built
in the most skillnl and worknanlike man
ner; whereas, the history of its creation and
its cruise demonstrates it TO have been-
ia perfdious bark,
Built i tn eclipse, and rigged with curses dark
rotting through all her timbers, leaking from
stem to stern, laboring heavily on Storm
tossed sea, surrounded by clouds of disastrous
porfent, navigated by those whose object is a
piratical one, (nameiy, the extension and per-
petuity of slavery,) and destined to go down,
full many iathom deep TO the JOY and eX-
ultation ofall who are yearning for the de-
liverance ofa groaning world.

Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society sends
forth its congratulations TO GEO. THOMP-

the prospect of his visiting the United States
in the course of the present year-assurlng
him of warm and enthusiastic reception on
the part of thousands and tens of thousands
of the friends of universal emancipation,
multitudes of whom have been converted TO
the cause of the slave since he was driven
from these shores by mobocratic violence,
and who yearn for the hour to arrive when
they may have both the opportunity and the
privilege TO do honor TO the man whom they
once In their blindness or nassinn NYere led
