The REV. T. w. HIGGISsos was then introduced by
Mr. Garison. lie stood upon this platform for two
reasons They heard every day that the ADoiilonsts
were intolerant Of opposition. He himself was proof
that this was not 80. lie had never accepted their
INTERPRETATION Of the CONSTITUTIONS this charge OF
illiberaity was refuied by his standing there' Inc
other reason was that he looked in vain elsewhere for
men who understood Slavery. Every man who had
been in Republican meetings knew 1t who knew
Slavery Seward and Greeley were ultra Abolltionlss
in THEN earnestness and fidelity to their faith compared
with the mass of The Republican party. The great
mass saw that the great political question be-
cause there was other political question: But 70
them the Slave Power was powerful "a demon winch
could be exercised by prayer and fastlng-py the
prayer If eco clegymen and the fasting Of the Re
nubcan party for the loaves and fishes for another
four years. Only tins morning he read IN Leading
Republican journal that Slavery was weak thing.
This power which had made every President and con-
trolled every item Of the policy OF me country-tnn
power had forgotten God and cared only ior Two y
ibings: the devil and William Lloyd Garrison. He
never had held, and he trusted he never should
hold that the Constitution was Pro-slayery, while
il could be Interpreted in favor vi freedom.
