The Anti.Slavtry Bugle.

"But every party ,ehich claims 10 represent
the humanity aud progress of the age, is bound
TO inscribc on its banners Equality before the
law, without distinction of sex, or color"
Well, we found fhuIt with this MS irrele-
want, thought il introduced the anti-slnvery |
question, and contcnded that this had no |
more right to be introduced there, than any |
reform question OF the day. Parker Pills |
bury found fault with Our article, aud wrote |
us a letter, which we published. Ii was a |
graphic and touching enumeration of the |
wrongs aud expressions suffered 10y colOred |
people IN this country, aud gave these MS II |
reason why II was necessary to pnss rcso-
luton with a color clause. This confirmed |
our previous notion that this clause made !
that convention al" abolition meeting" Aud |
every thing, those who differ with us say, |
makes this more aud more plain. The Bu-
sle keeps on lecturing us about not wishing
to disturb the preiudccs of wonnn-wbip- |
pers aud cradle plunderers," while it charges |
us with aggression aud whimpering" when |
we find Our charges dsprovcd-wilh adroit- |
ness in suppressng its arguments and mis-
representing and mysiiIying the whole sub !
icct in most wonderful way. The editor
insists that we have wiliully, deliberately and
muliciously misrepresented the action of the
Convention, aud complains we did not copy
all IFS article instead of cutting out such
parts rs appeared to us to involve contra
dicion. We never have hored our readers
with column upon column, of huir-splitiing
controversies; aud if we undertook, now, TO
copy the pros aud cons of this, we should
be obliged TO print n Sheet as large as half
acre lot, or else give our readers nothing but
the Worcester Convention. We have twice
copied the Resolution; we now give the gist
of it again, aud repeat what we could very
freely say upon oath, that to the hest of our
knowledge and belief the passage of that
resolution made that Convention un abolition
meeting, that il wns "breach of trust" in
those WHO composed the Convention 10 com
nit it to any question but that one for the
consideration of which il was cspecially
called. . ..r ,....,..1r ~, -
