FIVE YEARS PROGRESS of the SLAVE
POWER.
TIE CATASTROPHE.

In the spirit Of that delusion and hyDocrisv
which had been practiccd throughout the shock.
ing measures which bad been aiken. were cnll-
ed measures of adjustment, of 'compromIse.' OF
'pacfcltion. "When they have made desor,'
SAID the old historian, they call it peace" But
notwithstanding the marvellous sprinr with
which IN ten months the Slave Power had arisen
! from condition OF apparent depression to the
most Palmy greatness it had ever known, some
excitement was reasonably looked for among the
disappointed and outraged freemen of the North.
And the apprehension proved wen founded,
| when IN large and enthusiastic meetings held in
Boston and many other northern cities. the law
and It's promoters were condemned in the most
earnest terms.
Proper pains were taken 10 manage the crisis.
| As to part of the ruin which had been wrought.
! 1t was obviously irremCdiab.e it was impos,i5le
! 10 recover for liberty the tens of thousands of
miles OF territory which had been taken from
New Mexico for Texas. Part was sill. in a
sense, contingent; by some for innate possibility
It still might happen that slavery would not get
into New Mexico and Utah, though the bars
which should have excluded 1t were thrown
down, The most serious immediate aDprphpD-
sion which was felt was I0rtbc effect that would
be produced by the actual operation Of the Flu
gltlve Slave Law. For terrible misery actually
presented to the view, viii move human hearts
