Some years ago we stated, and we
proved it in the columns Of this Jour

were sending large sums of money
to this connlry; that they supported
Abolition papers, and Abolition Lee,

that time these contributions have
been freely kept up. Indeed, we are
sure, if the matter could be authori-
ferreted out, that it could
be demonstrated that the immense

country TO some Of the Abolition
speeches, made in the last Congress
was paid for by British gold.
