deserving immediate impeachment and
removal for his pcrfdy and treason as the
Inscriptions tool of the slave power;
and that therefore we are in the midst of
a revolution to throw off the chains Of
slaveholding oligarchy thousand times
more intolerable to be borne than any
ever imposed on our revolutionary faith
ers by the mother country"
This is pretty well for q country where,
according to Mr.. Garrison, there is noi-
Their freedom of speech nor of the press,
except among traiickers in human flesh
and human souls. But let US proceed,
which we shall do without much regard
to the order of the speakers who followed
this enunciation of the high priest.
The Reverend Mr.. May fresh from
the hot-house Of Syracuse, opened the
ball, and concluded by exclaiming, "Per-
ish money, perish credit, perish business,
and let justice and right prevail" For
which he was very much cbeered.
The reverend gentleman was succeed
ed by Mr. Redmond, colored prodigy,
who wanted the men who purchased
Sharpe's rifles for Kansas to purchase
Shapes rifles to fight with in Georgia,
South Carolina and Alabama" Mr..
Redmond, the colored gentlman, assum-
ed, moreover, that "no man could be
trusted in the right place who was not
an out-and-out dissolutionist;'' for which
he. was very much applauded I; and,
finally, Mr.. Redmond, the colored gen.
tleman, concluded by declaring, most
energetically, chat. rather than this in
fernal system of slavery should continue,
he desired to see this Internal Union
shattered to atoms. He hoped to sec
the slaves rise in their might yet, and
murder all their oppressors, or their OPP
pressors would murder them" " His
prayer to God was, that this Union may
be shattered into thousand pieces, and
the fragments scattered" Here the re-
porter states, "tbe rest was lost in loud
and turbulent applause"
The gentleman of color. was followed
by Miss Mistress Lucy Stone Blackwell,
who became somewhat puzzled by mix
ing up the rights of women with those
of the gentlemen of color, and finally
went off in a paroxism of cursing, ex-
claiming: Courses on the constitution
curses on the fugitive-slave law p
Whereupon, sheer he (for we believe
there is some doubt on the subject) sal
down amid bursts Of applause.
Next came pig to be shaved in tho
likeness Of the Reverend Riaeman Theo
aore Parker, who was in high goot
humor, and actually laughed till he shool
his long beard. He was going on yer,

speak word, which being accorded b,
the high priest of Pandemonium, she
gave the reverend fugleman a terrible

Sharpc's rifles. The reverend First
rate fanatic infdel and traitor" Gas Mr.,
Garrison facetiously calls him, J did not
exactly wish himself in Kansas. but no
doubt he wished himself anywhere else
than in Pandcmonium. But he got M
by. complimenting Lucretia, saying he
agreed with her perfectly, and that If he
did not wear broad brim, he was so
much Of a Quaker that, though he did
not mind instigating others to fight, be
was very scrupulous about fighting him
self. There can be no doubt that the
reverend fugleman is terribly henpecked
by Lucretia.
One Stephen Pearl Andrews next came
forward with moral lecture, with which
he adroitly combined "a defence Of Mr..
Seward who-Hoaven save tho mark -
