MEETING AT

Unex pectedly to myself l had the pleasure OF
attending the meeting held by Mr.. Robinson. and
Mrs. Foster at the above named place. /, is al
ways q pleasure, and highly profitable besides. to
attend a genuine Anti-Slavery meeting, where
there is no shadow of compromise, no ~faltering of
standard bearers, where the issues are bold and
clear, and the moral tone elevated and elevatine.
l need not say to those acquainted with the speak
es that shch cas- the character Of the meeting 10
which have referred. Mr.. Robinson's discour-
ses are always well calculated 10 produce deeper
convictions and frmer purposes In every bearer
who is capable OF approaching tha: unhinching
integrity, and broad philanthropy which have
characterized his life.
The political aspects OF the cause occccupied mmosk
of the timej a subject 10 which Mrs. Foster is en-
tirely at homo. As listened, 1 was led to study
the secret of that wonderful power that she ever
has over an audience-a power seldom surpassed
on the part Of any speaker. First; she under
stands perfectly the politics of the country, and
has been conversant with every leading event dur
ing the last thirty years. Then her strong sense
of justice, her christian r~riciples, and the terrible
Indignation that fires her soul against wrong, and
cruelty and crime, manifest themselves in retribu-
tive judgment upon the character and policy of
the demagogue and the compromises, Every man
listens like a culprit ct the bar he weighs the
evidenced he hopes to escape by bubble or evasion,
or by the peculiar adjustmen: of his sliding scale
OF morality, but there is no use, he is transfxed
like a man pinned to the wall with a bayonet.-
