The Mass Meeting

Owing to the almost impossible state Of the
roads, hundreds We're prevented from coming
who had resolved to be present at this voluntary
gathering. Bat notwithstanding all these OBJ
e~tacles, the different sections on this side of the
mountains, with some from the other, were well
represented, and in numbers as great, we should
think, as the general average of our State Con-
v~entions. And what is better, they were the
right sort Of men for the occasion. Indeed, we
hardly know how a better selection of men
could have been made, who, for intelligence,
frmness of principle, and a knowledge of the
views of the different portions of the united
Party, would be be better fitted to give voice
TO the sentiments of the Free Democracy at this
crisis.
Though there was but one feeling, and that
of a veIy deep and decided character, and one
that might have been expected to expend itself
in denunciation, yet we never attended a politi-
cal meeting which was characterised with more
dehberation, or in which the subjects proposed
to be considered were more thoroughly or un-
derstandingly discussed, or the different posi-.
tons taken, agreed on with greater unanimity.
And we cannot but believe their doings, which
will be found in another column, will meet with
a hearty response from the friends Of free prin-
ciples throughout the State.

The Webster Bride.

Nearly simultaneously with the appearance,
in the papers, Of the charge that Daniel Web
received 1000 on entering the cabinet, Mr..
Allen, of Massachusetts boldly affirmed the
same to be a fact, in Congress, which brought
down upon his head a storm of abuse from his
colleague, Ashmun, and other friends of Web
ster in the House. But when a resolution was
introduced for an investigation, under which
Mr.. Allen proposed to prove the truth of the de-
MED charges, it was voted down by Webster's
friends-they fearing to go into an investigation !
The charge, therefore, will now stand as estab-
lished in the eyes of the nation, in spite of all
the minions Of this doubly disgraced man may
say to the contrary.
Before the nation was sold to the slave pow
er, a member of the Cabinet, under such cir
culnstances, would not have retained his place
twenty.four hours,

Senator Benton.

Mr.. Rives, of the Globe, announces that Sem
ator Benton has declared to him that he would
in no case stand as the candidate for the next
Presidency. We believe, with Gen. Jackson,
that the office of President should neither be
sought nor refused, and consequently that the
declaration of no man should preclude the use
of his name as candidate for that high station,
when the people demand il. We know not, to
be sure. who will be called to be the standard
bearer of the party of progress in freedom, at
the approaching campaign, but should Mr. Ben
ton place himself in a position in which the OPP
ponents Of human bondage could consistently
support him, as, being but nominally a slave
holder, he easily might, we can think OF no
man whose appearance in the field at this crisis,
would cause more dismay to the beleaguering
hosts of the slave power than that of this incor-
ruptibls and truly p%atIonel statesman OF tho
West.

ACCIDENT IN OREGoN.-We learn from the
last Western Star, the new Oregon paper, that a
melancholy accident occurred at Milwaukee, on
christmas day, during the ceremonies Of launch
ing the large, new steamer "Lot Whitcomb, -
which they have been building at that place to
play on the Willamette River. "Capt F. Morse,
of the Schooner 'M|erchantman,' in the act Of
touching fire to a cannon, was instantly killed
by the bursting of the piece, which was blown
to atoms" one of the fragments striking him
on the neck and jaw, which were broken and
Iacerated in a most shocking manner.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1851-03-13

ouired quantity being taken from his arm, 1t
was injected from a syringe into a vein OF tho
head(?) of the patient, and passed Immediately
into the system. The blood was injected at
about its natural temperature. The whole
quantity was from thirteen to fourteen ounces.
There were two injections, the first OF about
eight ounces, and after an interval Of five min
utes. five or six ounces more. The woman re-
vived Immediately, and was doing we'll for a
week after the operation, when she was carried
off By inflammation of the bowels. The transfu-
sion was considered to be, however, perfectly
successful.
The Washington Globe, alluding to the cir
cumstance, says that TRANSMISSION Of the blood
was tried in England and France nearly two
hundred years ago, and after being q medical
hobby for a few years, fell into disrepute, and
was altogether abandoned. At Paris it was pro.
hibited, on account OF some unsuccessful ex-
periments, and Perrault, a distinguished anato-
mist, gave the cup de grace by a bon mot. A
man could not change his blood, he said, as he
does his shirt, And so this theory, like a thou
sand others, was laid upon the shelf, apparently
forever, until resuscitated by M. Provost and
Dumas, about thirty years ago, who demonstra-
ted, by experiments on animals, that blood arti-
fcially supplied by TRANSMISSION, would reanimate
them and restore the vital energies; but the
blood transfused must be an animal of the sam
species Of the recipient, and the physical and
chemical properties the same. And it ought al
ways to be the blood Of a young and healthy
person, when the experiment is to be tried on a
human being. The old experimenters erred by
injecting the blood Of quaorupuds into the human
system, and they did not employ the same de-
gree of skill that is now employed. Within the
last twenty five years, there have been not less
than ten or twelve cases of TRANSMISSION in Eng
land and Germany, and all have been successful,
the account says. But upon the supposition that
they have not all been, still, if a majority has, it
is encouraging enough to justify the experiment
in desperate and in very doubtful cases, If the
blood of all healthy persons is chemically the
same, or very nearly so, reason would seem to
indicate, that in cases where o deficiency in the
quantity of blood in the system is what makes
the danger, then an artificial supply would be a
natural remedy.-EUe. Post.
