Union Meetings

Boston citizens have perfect right, as before oh
served, of exoneang themselves from all suspicion Of
the faint of abolition in any way they see fit From
such fanatcism they may wash their hands in inno
cence and encompass the altar of slavery at pleasure
They may bow its shrine with zeaots devotion, and
cringe obsequous devotees the idol NIoloch But
they are unjust in charging, through their employed
orators and the press their country brethren and all
opposed to the fugitive slave law, disorganizers and
disunionsts. stranger among us, unacquanted with
the state Of feeling, would be led suppose from read
ing these 'proceedings,' that anarchy prevailed in the
free States and half the people Of the State of Massachu
sets were in state of rebellion. Such mputatons

time of the reader, and space in the paper prove
negative; demonstrate what every one knows, whose
source Of information is not confined few bunker
papers.
The people of Massachusetts abide by the Constitu-
ton of the United States in all its provisions, however
outraged by our lawmakers. They hold fast to the
Union, perverted though often is to the grasping pur
poses Of slavery; and by more devoedy than the
Free Soil party and others, Wings and Democrats,
prescribed and denounced by the self styled Union
There are few in this and other Northern States who
believe that the Federal Constitution lends its support
the encouragement of slavery and have openly and
earnestly denounced it. These are the &c Garrison
men, who Jealous numerous than
formerly, and it not necessary to collect large
sembly of grave and reverend seniors to hunt them
down. The object was other game.
The head and front Of offence, then, is this: the
masses of people the North dissatisfied with the
late slave law of Congress, that browning pillar in the
Clay clubs diadem termed 'speace measures and in
bold and manly have denounced it. 1t reru
dated prospectvey by Legislature, in May, 1850,
by almost unanimous. 1t has been denounced in
conventions and meetings of citizens of all parties in
politics, and creeds of religion 1t opposed in the
way but with less violence, than the predecessors
of the same Boston merchants opposed Jefersons En-
barge of 1907, which old people will recoec by
g multitudinous assemblies and infammatory har-
ransues, and other demonstrations of oppugnaon to
the laws of the land. Boston merchants did not hest
ate sometimes evade the provisions of the Embargo
and Non-ntercourse laws, without regard to law; and
when their vessels escaped the vigilance of
cutters, conscience remained al But then, that
was case Of interest; this only of principle That
caused vessels the wharves; this requires be-
nevoIence to be suppressed. 4.
