I In November, 1854, society was estab-

s-ensbe purpose of assisting emigration to

would heve been allowed TO rest for. the present,
at least. 1t seems, however, that VIC were mis-
taken. The agitation hes already been COM

president o. the Society ozsanized at Worcester
to aid emigration to Kansas, having been re-
t&rned to Congress, has been banqueted, toast

it appears that the most strenuous efforts were
made by Mr.. TAayer and the Other speakers to

All this would not lie worth comment at this |
time, we're it not for the fact that Mr.. Thayer
and bis supporters do not intend to give up the |
war. Mr.. Thayer, in speech which we publish |
elsewhere, recommended that the society should
not go one step backward, hut rather enlarge
the sphere of its operations. He congratu-
lated his audience upon the fact that they |
had established four or five sickly sectional set

spilled the blood of their brethren in deadly con-
fict for fantasy. Mr.. Thaycr further said--and |
