Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1850-05-18


ace Mann, John Z. Hale, and the great body Of
the people at the North for they concode 10
the STAKEHOLDER the leg0l right to hunt and re-
capture his runaway slaves on Free Soil, differ
ing with Mr. Webster in regard to certain judi
cial proceedings in such cases, and demanding q
jury trial solely for their own personal freedom.
Rosolred-That it is the highest insult to God,
and utterly degrading to our common nature,
to allow any human being to be put on trial,
whether before Judge or Jury, rs the property
of another; for IL is not competent for any hui
man tribunal 10 entertain question SO mon-
stroas and prcpostcrous.
Resoicee-1hat what the North is solcmnly
bound to do, on the score of absolute justice and
common humanity, IS to declare that every hu-
man being is free as soon he touches her soil (;
and that the question of his being the chattcl of
annother shall never be legally entertained in
any case, on any protencc; but this the North
cannot constitutonally do, until she dissolvcs
the bonds which connect her with the slavehold-
ing South.
Mr.. MAY observed that he had received a
large supply of pamphlets in Review OF
Wellster's speech by Wendell Phillips, and
tO receive orders Tor these ut So per hun
dred.
MIR. GARRsoS then read solne additional
resolutions.

! disoigauizers slowly pushed down the nisles,
but Us yet were very quiet, ouly heie aud there

! of interruption.
Mr.. GARRISON wished 10 say, once for all,
that though this was meeting OF the Anti
Slavery Society, yet the doors were wide
open to those who dissentcd; they were in
vIted here in good faith, aud should have, il
they deserved it, u iull and tuir lcurng.-
They who are unwilling TO accept an offer
so generous, must certainly he conscious
that they have no argument to bring against
us, and III actous OF noisy violence they do
injury 10 the good name OF Freedom. Ii
any one wishes to address the meeting, citll-
er ior or against the resolutions, this platform
is at his or her service.
This offer was met with cheers and cat
calls and various ugly noises on the purt OF
Capt RyndeIs' gang, aud in hearty applause

Mr.. GARRIsoS then introduced Rev. Hen
ny GREw of Philadelphia, who spoke in
support of the fist resolution. The lobby
crowd were vociicrous in shouts ior UOtl-
glass," Abby Kelly" und others. Mr.. Grew
would not say that every nbOlitionst was u
