Insolem Foreign Intrusion in the Domestic AT
fairs Of the U. States.
| The readers of this paper are already informed,
throughthe medium of its European correspon-
dence, that a noted English Abolition Orator, who
some twelve or fifteen years ago made some noise
in the United States, was about to revisit us for
the purpose of lecturing our people upon the sub
ject of their domestic institutions the present be-
ing deemed by his hackers in London a favorable
conuncture for such agitation in this country.
| The following passage from one Of Mr.. Walshs
late letters further illustrates the movements and
purposes of those pseudo-p hiIanthropists who are
sending their missionaries here upon errands of
impernence and mischief:

To my apprehension the most important article in
the London papers of last week is the report OF the pro-
ceedngs of the soee evening party in the London
Tavern, in honor of Mr. George Thompson, the fa-

is defined to be merry feast, and certainly this

Thorapson's harangue is, Of course, the most re-
markable and sgnlfcative. He has always been sue
cessu spouter 10 conversations oil the kind, though
be proved ineffective speaker in the House of Com
mons. He described VIM. Lloyd Garrison as "a gori-
GUS being he denounced the Liberia Colon 'za,on
schen,e he related how he went to America and la
bored there fifteen years agohow line Americans knew
that he took gold or silver OF Them But they knew
that they received considerable stipend from Scottish

The incendiarys present errand is 10 strike while the

The English Missionary thus heralded has arri-

Disunionists of the United States, at Faneuil
