A PRACTICAL PURITAN.

Living here, in the North some years ago, was a
plain, quiet, practical man, who actually felt his
brotherhood to humanity; who hated words and
loved deedsi to whom the mere talk of the refor-
mer was idle wind; and to whom the faithlessness
and reoreancy Of the Church was the standing
grief Of his life.

with a living faith in the Sermon on the Mount

that he was mad, or else the world is.

The man who dare. no. to DO generous, is not
Il: to rule or to be free, and we all rejooed when
We understood that tho old British lioa had risen
triumphant over the Juggernautism flags Of the
people.
But we come down page lower in history and
see Hungary when i. struggled against a suporior
power, for that ihde dependence which Austria at
tempted to take away from them. When she
fought for her Godgiven and natural rights Of IT,
dependence, oil this was changed. Why Be-
cause by the liberation of their slaves they showed
that they perceived great principle, they based
themselves indssolubly upon the sympathy Of all
the unbiased inteec, Of our wide world of bu-
MARTY. We all wanted Hungary to triumph
We all desired her Independence. 3d. in regard
to the black race, 1 say here tonight that which
have said as many as ten or twelve years ago,
that if that issue arose. which ID forbid it should
come, when the African slave and the superior
race should take up arms to vndicate their liberty
which can be in some saes done, but by the nbol-
ishmeDt of the white race am on the side Of m Y
own race. The solution Of this problem is fra
ternal one. These are the sentiments which
have always avowed, therefore, ! cas-. back the
Infamous calumny that there is in my breast any
sentiment like that which would sanction the max
ing OF raid upon the South. Further, believe
this to be the sentiments so far as know Them,
of the members Of the great Republican party Of
| the States.

MARIUS R. ROBINSON.

! The Ufica HeIuid, in its notice of an Anti
slavery Convention recently held in that place,
thus describes one Of the speakers,
Mr.. Robinson is medium sized man, Of dark
bi,us complexion, black hair and whiskers some
what mised with grey. He speaks with good
deal of force and earnestness, and is man likely
TO be listened to respectfully anywhere. lie spoke
nearly an hour in exposition of his sentiments on
the slavery question. lie was not 90 violent and
ultra as we expected. He pictured the wrongs oI
slavery-its denial of personal rights. of free
speech, Of religious worship and of family rola-
tons--in terms of just condemnation He plan
ted himself upon the radical utterances of the Dec
laraton of Independence. The men Of l776 asser.
ted the nalienable right of universal liberty, and
Lafay e,te, Koscusko, Steuben and Dekalb came
os er here to fight for that doctrine. But men don't
believe 10 these doctrines now. The great Demo.
cratic party Of the Nation stands up and saws that
certain men were made for masters and certain
men for slaves. The churches tell us Abraham
and Isaac wers slave.holders--t that Paul was q
kidnappc'. scrt of Fugitive Slave Commissioner.
It ono disbelieycs in baptism tho doctrine Of
election, he is turned out cf the church. bat it can
fellowship with shareholders. Tho government
and the people has been educated into defense
Of slavery. The whole human race was involved
in this question If one showed right to enslave
the poorest man in the nation, he showed u righ,
to enslave all. There wis no middle ground and
liz was time for radical action.
Mr.. r. commented justly on various outrages
Of the Slave Power such as expeing men from
elave SNes for voting for Fremont, or for preach.
ing tina: gospel which is "delirerance to the cap,
tive" The "tar and feather Democracy" were
suitably denounced, The Republicans could moi
90 South and advocate their doctrines In ,ha,
respect they were no better taan Abotionists-
The right of locomotion for free white men in the
slave States vas denied. He had long been OIL
the opinion that there no hopo for the abo;
ion of slavery until the people all trod down
nearly TO level of the slave. We were fast com
ing to that, and hence he iouk courage lie did
not como to Utica to preach bloody insurrection
but he did come to preach instruction. There
was no hope of success until we Initiate the slave
holders in their method Of fghtng--until we
make Freedom the paramount question az the
$50. 900 slave. holders make Slavery paramount
10 conclusion, Mr.. Robinson severely denounced
those churches and ministers who sympathzed
with slaye-holdins.
