My dear sir, Boston had glorious history;

that Boston would add to her ancient re.

that Is huilded intu monuments nj Lcxing-

got the honor that her citizens aud their
nrigIIbOrs hnd won, aud the services they
had rendered 10 mankind, by the destruction
of ten, illegally taxed, and by their constant
resistance to oppression; she forgot all this,
aud thought only of the granite built into
Wnra houses or Banks, aud of the profits OF
her trade ! With few exceptions, the polit.
clans of Boston, tho capitalists of Boston,
the merchants of Boston, aud, of course, the
moutl,-pieces Of all these three, desired to
enforce the Fugitive Slave hill IN this city,
aud degrade n inan into the condition of
beast. The Government of Boston desired
the same thing. "lt is law" quoth they,
" and so must be put in force" Il WINS p,lt
in force---in Court House girt with EN-.
l!enaic chains--by two hundred police
men, armed with bludgeous aud naked
swords, protected by armed soldiers, the
celebrated Sinins Brigade. II wus enforced,

When Boston had succeeded so well in
making women iuto mere bensis of prey,
the delight was timely aud consistent. Clcr.
gymcn publicly thanked God for the event ;
ministers of religion came out in defense
of kidnnppcrs aud kidnapping, for the law

were in Boston fifteen hundred riIln-shOps in

known 10 the authorities of the place, every
one Of them in direct violation of the law of
the land! Austrian llnynau, for scourging
n lady, naked, IN his camp, has himself run
tile gauntlet of Chrislcntlon, and been
brought To the gates of death in the metrOpo-

denied that he did lllat deed. Boston cannot
deny her net of shame; postcrily will he her
earthly Judge.
You know, sir, very well, the one great
Influence, which determined Buston to for
get hcr former history, aud To "couqucr her
prcjndices" in favor OF the Rights OF man aud
the Laws Of God rather strong "prrludices"
they were, too, IN the days Of Hancock aud
Adams. You know the reward Boston hns

Muse of History could blot out the record of
this mans fate aud fall, aud human pity
could assuage the grief of greatness fallen to
such n sad estate. But no. Even Boston
turns of the mighty man whose conscience
she corrupted aud lulled 10 sleep in her lap,
aud now refuses to buy the talent she made
venal long ago. 1t must be so.

That guilty aims should sordd paths pursue:
That what ensnares the heart should MAIN the

And virtues worthless foes be false TO glory

Sir, in the time of trial, your townsmcn
stood the rack. think they had some
preaching to encourage their faith, from
non-resislant, whose piece never hangs fire
in the time of battle who loves men because
he loves God, and is IA minister of Picly aud
Humanity, not of Priestcraii. In the name
of Justice, the Syracuseans trod down the
Fugitive Slave Bill. In the name of God,
they set the tools of Government at defiance,
aud their brother at liberty.
