TWENTY.SIXTH NATIONAL A%NTl.SLAVERY
INSCRIPTION ANNIVERSAR Y
In the month Of January neat, in Boston,
1860.

In q year when Americans finds themselves Cit
ixens Of q country wtere the African slave trade
is going on, and slave-hunting unfOrbidden. and
sheltering the fugitive indicted as a crime, and
the leading religious and political influences go
dead to this public shame as to discountenance
legislative reform, we are confident that we have
only to open our subscription in order to be becom-
ingly and effectuallY sustained by the awakening
virtue of the people, in the enterprise to which our
lives are given. .,.,a.f-s-
We entreat, then, all the friends of Liberty, and
and the foes of Slavery, everywhere. in the South
as at the North-in Europe as in America-phi-
losopbers as we'll as Christian, Catholics no less
than Protestants, to subscribe to q fund and o
mode of expenditure which prepares the way be.
fore every sect, every party, every association
which makes all other mems anti-slavery labor
light, and which has. for six and twenty years,
been laying the foundations of many generations,
so as to exclude slavery from American institu-
tions, and secure to posterity those blessings Of
liberty which the last generation passed away
without enjoying.
The UNDERSIGNED, while asking the favor OF
their subscribers company, on their customary
Anniversary occasion, are impelled by the good

indispensable necessity, by the universal and fund
amental character OF its principles, to entreat also
the assistance of all. The crisis in the nations
life makes the occasion-one which will be worth
crossing the ocean to participate in. And while
thanking our European friends for their generous
cooperation of last year with America, we ask its
continuance yet q little longer, till q spirit Of de.
votedness adequate to this great world:eHterprize
shall have been here awakened.
From this day forward through the year we be
gin to arrange our efforts, and economize our
means, greater or smaller as the case may be, to
meet this great national claim and we desire al
who would see slavery abolished, and truth, honor,
peace, liberty and safety in righteousness restored
10 meet us at its close, for cheer. counsel, sacrifice
resolve and generous cooperation.
