WARRINGTON, (Eng.). March l8, 1859

WARRINGTON, (Eng j. March 10, looS'
WI. GARRISON, Eso.-DEAR SIR: The Commit
tee of the Warrington Anti Slavery Society were in
doubt TO whom the accompanying address should
be sent, in order to secure its publicity. They
have therefore requested me to send it to you that
yoa may place it in the hands of somo one con-
nected with the American Anti, Slavery Society,
who will give it publicity through the recognized
organs of the party, and by any other means
thought desirable.
The Warrington Anti. Slavery Society, anxious
to mark the sincerity of their professions by the
performance of some definite act, have sent do
nation of 100 dollars to the American Anti'Slavery
Society to aid 10 fur.hering the cause they have in
common with yourselves.
Miss Remond's exertions have been eminently
ssrvicabe by stimulating into more active life the
existing sentiment Of our town and it appears to
me the American Society would act wisely to send
over, from time to time some popular advocate to
explain the efforts and progress made in America.
You would then see that the American feeling that
We are rather cold THE subject, is without foun'
dation. The British nation has never receded on
this great question. Tho strong conviction of in.
justice attendant upon the system OF slavebolding

citing cause to evidence its vitality.
Whenever appealed to on principles which it
can consciens sously recognize and support the re-
sponse is quick and heartfelt.
The difficulty is not so much to create common
sentiment as to bring out this felt unity into one
combined action. One sentiment alone can give
cohesion to this action that We are engaged in a
work of God, demanded from US and all sincere
christians by an acknowledgement of the one Faith.
srsood of God, and tho one brotherhood Of man,
lessons not only dvnely taught, but in accordancs
with which Christ dvinsly lived and died. How
beautifully does the abolition of slavery in the
British dominions exhibit the power that accom-.
plishes work both begun and carried on 10 God
We cannot look for efficient agency to any source
vhe,e the motives aud principles will not bear to
20 be tested by spirit and word Of Christian truth
The advocacy of principles and modes Of action
which arc foreign to these will tend to weaken
the sympathy of those further removed from the
exciting influences which gave rise to them. There
was somewhat of this to be dsplorsd, though
scarcely to 90 wondered at, in the recent Boston
Convention; and il seems TO mo that We act wisely
BY an expression Of our sympathy which may ef.
tend the influence Of those who adhere faithfully
TO the only sound basis Of action, that Of moral
suasion, and deprscate any cause which sccords
no. with the perfect law of peace and love.
