itors murdered. But, it is unnecessary to
recite in detail, the sad history, the misdi-
rected opposition, of those days when the
name of abolitionist was synonymous with
fanatic, incendiary, cut-throat, and every
opprobrious epithes in the vocabulary of
Billingsgate. The church and ministry OPP
posed them, politicians denounced them, the
press maligned them, and the people, ped
dlers of yankee notions mobbed them, and
in the whole North, both the Church and the
State were supplied and paralyzed before
the opposition; freedom was struck dumb on
her own hearth-stone; and freemen, berefi
Of their manhood, like Sampson shorn Of
his locks, were made to grind in the prison
house Of their Southern masters. Like the
plague Of Egypt, slavery had crept into al
the kneading troLghs, and threatened the
bread Of priests and politicians who dared
to open their mouths against the patriarch
al institution. There was no hei sht so high
or depth so low, or place so sacred, or post
so honorable, or haunt so vile, but slavery
had found lodging place, entrenched and
mustered its champions there. Prejudice,
bigotry, sectnrianism, politicians, learning,
position, wealth, and power, arrayed them
selves against the Antislavery sentiment; but
despite of all these it continued to grow,
and seemingly the faster for the opposition
it received, till at the Presidential election
of 1910, there were in the free States over
loo, 900 abolition voters.

From Washington

WASHINGTON April 28.-This afternoon Senior Ma
ia was formally presented to the President by Sec
retary Cass. In delivering the letter, which ac-
credits him as the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary of the Mexican Republic to the
Government of the United States he conveyed to
the President at the same time, the sentiments of
friendship and high regard which the Constitutional
Government as well as the people of Mexico enter
tanned for him and for the citizens Of this Great Re-
public Senor Mata, continuing, said "The first
and certainly the most gratifying of my duties in
the act of presenting myself to your Ex-
celency, in my official character, is to assure YOU
of the sincere desire with which shall endeavor to
draw into closer unity the relations of your Excel
lency's Government and those of the Government of
my own country. The desire. by which am actua-
ted, of contributing, to the extent of nv ability t.
the development of the interests of both countries
as also by the hope which cherish, that the two Re
publics, already united by common principles and
like interests will become daily so until thev
shall have held up to the world the glorious evi-
dences of two nations connected by bonds of perfect
brotherhood 1t is peculiarly gratifying to me, Mr.
President to have in my power to be able to pre-
sent to your Excelency, this occasion, the well
deserved tribute of my profound respect for YOUR
person and to give expression to the fervent wishes
which | entertain for the advancing march of the
people of the United States. under your Excellen-
cys wise administration, in the PATHWAYS of free
dem, civilization and progress, in which they have
so nuby entered.
The President in the course of his reply, said
that the Government and people of the United
States hau always regarded with the deepest con-
cern the events transpring in the sister Republic
Their desire had always been to establish such rea
tOns would enable the two countries to live on
terms of peace and good neighborhood and to fully
deVelope their mutual reciprocal interests.
In recognizing the Constitutional Government of
Mexico, he had followed the course hereto
fore pursued, and this was done as soon as
it was ascertained that the Government
was capable of maintaining its author
itv and was sustained by the people
He gratilied, that for the first time in their
history, they had generally declared for the
constitution and laws; and that the revolutionary
movements of a Military Chieftain had been so sig
nally defeated.
The interview is represented as being of highly
gratifying character.
No dispatches have been received from Minister
Lamar by either of the two arrivals from Nicaragua
This remissness on his part is serious disappoint-
ment to the Government.

varying as to the date of its return sometimes Is
days, sometimes a month and even for longer ne
riod The exact day of the Crucifxion has never
been known. but there exists tradition that tie
Resurrection of the Savior took place very short
time after the spring equinox, and was immediate
" preceded by full-moon. In the year 1926, when
the council of Nicene assembled for the purpose of
establishing many matters of church discipline the
epoch of the celebration of Easter was then regu-
lated in the order in which it now revolves. II is
necessary to the regularity of the Ecclesiastical
year that the date Of the celebration of the Pascha
solemnity should be decided as all the minor etes
proceed from it, the Christian tradition, being the
Ascension, was 40 days after the Resurrection and
Pentecost 90 days. In the fourth century there
was no method known of precisely calculating the
movements of the Heavenly bodies, besides which
difficulty, the date of the tradition was too vague
to form the foundation of the solution of the prob
lem. In the impossibiitv of arriving at an exact
calculation, and to cOnciliate the tradition which
the epoch indicated by the Astronomical phenomo-
ma, 1t was decided that ''Every year the Paschal
tete should be celebrated on the Sunday which fol-
lows the day of the first full moon falling after the
10th of March," 1t thus results as a consequence
OF this regulation, that the full moon can never be
before the 2lst Of March, or Easter before the 22nd
1t is very occurrence that Easter is solemn
lied as late as this year 49, but as there was new
moon on the 18th of March, Easter could only fall
on Sunday after the moon which followed that of
the 18th of the month.

FreShet on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
Serious Damage

ALEXANDRIA, April 2S.-The Potomac river con-
tinues very high here and is thought to be yet
rising. Our worst fears have been realized re-
gardng the effects of the freshet upon the Chesa-
reake and Ohio Canal. Information received to-
day represents that the large dam No. is serious
ly washed near the Maryland shore, and that No.
is also somewhat injured; besides this, heavy
slide at the mouth of the Canal Tunnel is reported
The most favorable accounts that at least a
month will be required for repairs, even with the
largest expenditure. The full extent of the injury
however, will not appear until the river subsidies
in a few days. The canalmen hope that the dam
age may be exaggerated, though the prospect for
renewal of boating seems gloomy enough, and the
coal men will probably be obliged to resort to the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad for bringing their
coal to tdewater.
