has been 20 wropged 40 insult.d, has she been true
and faithful to the UniOn7 Sir, because she knew,
in her clear head, that these outrages came not
from the generous hearts Of the American people She
knew that when iustice fUaly should assume toe

that when the Government ceased to foster tue IN

10 relation TO general charges against Massscbu:
sets. There are specific charges upon which shall
dwell for moment. One Is, that she has organized
an EnigIant Aid Society. Did you not tell Masst-
perfectly free to mold her institutions as they
thought bert She knew and she told you, that
your doctrine of squatter sovereignty was del-
sion ard snsre. She opposed 1t as long as she
could here and when che could do 1t no longer, she
accepted the battle upon your pledge OF faT play,
determined to make Kansos Free ate. In this
high motive the American Aid Society had s origin.
Its ot cts are two fold: Freedom FIR snsas and Pc
cul ary reward; ana it il 80 organized that pecuGi-
ary benefit cannot flow to the stockholders except
Though the prosperity Of those whom it ads. The
idea Of the Society Is this: To take capital and place
il in advance of cvlzaton-to take the elements of
civilization the saw-mi the church, the schoohouse
and plant them in the wilderness as an inducement TO
the emigrsnt. 1t has never arm one mao. Ii has
never paid one mans passage to Kansas 1t is not
political society. 1t never asked, though think it
whom il as assisted to emigrate TO Kansas IL had
invested 500 900, snd it has conducted from Massa
chusets to Kansas from twelve to hitten hundred OF
II flower of her people. Such is the EDgrant Ali So
Ciety and such action. 1t is thus Society, just
and legal in i,s origin and its action, that has been
made the pretex for the most bitter upon Mas
sacbuseits. Sir, it is Christianity organized. How
have these legal and these proper means been met by
those who prr pore to make Kansas a Slave State
The people Of Massacbusetts would not complain If the
people who differed ON them should 60 there to
