to jar the condagration as they pass out
of their respective places of abodement. "

Died in Brooklyn, N. York, on the 10th Of
March. 1884. Mr.. WIN BRowN, full OF years
and full of peace and trust in Christ. He was
born at Tiverton, r. T., April 80, 1870, and had
consequently nearly completed his saith year.
He entered Yale College at nm early age, du-
ring the Presidency Of DR.. Stiles and was the
last surviving member Of the class which was
graduated in 's9. Firmly adhering to the great
reformatory measures OF the day, he was an
Efficient advocate Of the Sabbath of efforts for
the suppression OF intemperance, OF the univer.
sal diffusion Of education, and the protection Of
human rights. He urged the obligations OF all
men, and Of American citizens IN particular, to
use all practicable means for the emancipation
of humanity from bondage to fellow man.
While his good sense and the entire subsection
Of his mind to.thc principles OF Christianity
rendered him firm as rock IN support OF the
right his sound Judgment and COOL deliberate
survey Of oil attendant circumstances and
probable events, defended him alike from per-
severing obstinacy and rash impctuosity. His
honest, ardent, answering love of truth, to-
gcther with his clear perception OF it's claims,
led him TO view with high minded Christian
adherence the popular conservatism OF the
day, recently supplanted by that word OF true
chameleon import, COMPROMISED" The man
Of whom we speak was both too conscientious
and too wise ever 10 compromise truth and
right for any seeming good which the future
might promise. He saw the right, and ap.
proved II too - and, beyond what Is common
among men, he praetiesd i in all the relations
Of life.

the export duty, deeply concern the interests OF
Maine reciprocal trade in the natural pro-
ducts of the States and the Colonies, is sig-
nal approximation to the Principle Of Free
Trade, as established among the States OF this
Union, the operations of which have been 30
beneficial upon all interests; and, finally, Q
recognition of the equal rights of the People OF
the States and the Colonies, to the Fisheries Of
both, would be just and beneficial, and neces-
sary to prevent constant collision and strife,
tending to disturb and endanger the peaceful
relations between the United States and Great
Britain
We take it for granted then, that all these
by the treaty. If 50, both countries will DO
the gamers; and the whole Of each country
will be benefited. Wo can see nothing SEQ
tional in such treaty, except the locality of
the question adjusted. If it be admitted, that
the North is more concerned in it than the
South, it is simply because of its geographical
position, and its commercial character. Slave
holders, however, must know that such an Ad-
ministration as we now have, would take care
to guard their peculiar interests against detri-
ment They may be sure that cotton, un-
manufactured tobacco &C.. are among tho
products to be admitted into the Colonies free
Of duty.
And then, as to the objection once raised by
Mr.. Mallory to the bill Of Mr.. Davis, that it
would allow the expert fishermen Of the BAHIA
mas to enter Southern waters, and afford facil-
tiles to runaway slaves, how easily might it
be obviated by provision limiting the joint
right Of fishing by q parallel of latitude above
these waters! In this way, the South might
be relieved from apprehension, and at the same
time all important interests in relation to the
Fisheries be secured.
But, whatever the details of the Treaty may
be, if it honestly embrace the great objects we
have sketched, it will bea shame if any petty
considerations in the Colonial Legislatures, or
selfish views in the Home Government, or OBJ
jeetions in our Senate, growing out of blear-
eyed sectionalism, or biaosed devotion to
merely local interests should prevent the con-
summation Of o measure, which should be re-
garded as one Of the greatest triamphs of lib
eral and wise craftsmanship.

CANADA. - On Thursday June 18th, Lord
EIgin, Governor Of Canada, delivered speech
on the opening Of the Provincial Parliament;
and, after abiding at length to the absorbing
question Of the European war, proceeded to the
subject Of the reciprocity treaty, stating that
he had been enabled to conclude treaty with
the United States which now awaits ratifca-
ton, and which he is convinced will prove in
the highest degree advantageous to the Colo
MES generally, as we'll as to the United States
His lordship also recommended the passage of
law to extend the elective franchise, and sug-
gested reduction of the tariff. He also allu-
ded to the unexamplcd prosperity of the Prov
inces, their unshaken credit, &c.
A mountain of Spanish brown, estimated to
be sufficient to supply the world for centuries
is reported to have been discovered in the vi
cinity of Elyton, Alabama.

N. P. BANKS AT wALTHAM.

Mr. w. p Banks, Representative in Congress
from the seventh Congressional district Of
Massachusetts,, addressed his constituents at
Waltham, Mass, on the 9th inst, on the sub
ioct Of the passage Of the Nebraska bill. Tho
following is his defence Of his vote--which was
10 strongly censured--during tho tendency OF
the great question:
aMr Banks contended that the postpone
ment Of the question, and laying aside the spe-
cial order, was in reality triumph, and gave
timo for debate which could not otherwise
have been obtained The majority had the
power, and under the partial rulings Of tho
Speaker would have passed the bill immedi-
ately, had not this compromise been made.
Even had tho special order been reached, IL
could have been postponed by a simple vote Of
the majority.
The adoption Of the proposition Of Mr..
Chamberlain said Mr.. Banks gave US four
OF five days debate on the BILL and II was the
strongest debate we bad. During that debate,
Democratic Representatives from Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont and Connecticut and
hardshelI Dcfnocrat from New York, M we'll
as many Of the Massachusetts, delegation, de-
nounced the measure in strong speeches. Had
not this postponement been obtained" said
Mr.. Banks 81 myself should have come home,
without having had an opportunity 10 speak
upon the bill, and il would have been said that
did not use my influence against the passage
Of the measure"

We copy the following Call from the Ohio
papers. 1t was prepared, we learn, upon con-
sultation among those members Of the Ohio dele
CATION in Congress- who think the time has
arrived for such an organization a. it contem-
plates Some members, believed to be favora-
BILE to the movement could not be consulted, in
consequence of their absence from the city.
Among those who concur in its expedency
are, we understand both the Senators and
Messrs Campbell Corwin, Sapp, Giddings, and
Wade, of the House.
Thus prepared, the Call has been sent to the
People, who, if they approve will sign Il, and
initiate the Convention. The members who
approve it, desire to be understood as not wish
ing at all to assume any other part than that
Of mere proposors. 1t is not for them to call
Conventions OF create organizations. This is the
proper work of the People themselves. Placed,
however, in responsible positions, and having
peculiar opportunities for observing the tend
encics Of events they have properly submitted
directly to the People the great question, Shall
old and obsolete issues be longer suffered to
divide the opponents Of the Slaveholding Arts
tocracy and their allies and apologists or shall
they unite in single and Irresistible organiza-
ton of Freedom and Reform? They will not
complain of the decision Of the People, what
ever it may be.
We understand that the Calls, when signed,
are to be forwarded to Hon. Joseph R. Swan,
or John w. Andrews, Esq, or DR.. J. H. Coul-
ter, Esq, at Columbus, by whom the names Of
the signers are to be arranged in the orders OF
their counties, and to be published at the earli-
est possible day
We would suggest to our readers in Ohio
that they cut this Call from the paper and for
ward it, with such signatures as they can pro-
cure Of earnest and reliable men Of all the old
parties, and that. they forthwith hold their
County Conventions for the appointment Of
delegates to the Delegate Convention, and to
secure full attendance at the Mass Conven-
ton.
