ing Star, which gives by far the fullest report
that has appeared. The Hon. and Rev. Bap-
tst Noel independent Minister) was grave
and dignified, and his facts were telling; but
the two most successful speakers were the
Rev. Newman Hall independent Minister)
and Mr.. p. A. TAYLOR, NJ. p. for Leicester.
Mr.. Taylors speech is not done justice to in
the report because it came late in the evening.
There are some things not mentioned in the
report OF the Upper Meeting to which will
now allude. Mr.. Calthrop was one of the
most successful speakers in the lower rooms.
He is graduate of Cambridge Eng. )Univer-
sity and supported the Northern cause before
the University Debating Club He emigratad
to America some ten or more years ago, and
taught school for some years in Bridgeport,
Connecticut. He is quite as much American
as English in feeling, and possibly more SO.
He is about to return to your side. All the
meetings were more Northern than anti-sla-
very. The whole meeting stood up and cheer
ed when Mr.. Lincoln's name was mentioned,
and when the corn ship George Gris,cotd was
alluded to. w. II. Russell's name elected both
cheers and groans; the Times and Saturday
Review naught but the strongest execratons.
"Union and emancipation" was the keynote
of the meeting.
From all this l infer that the louder the up
per ten thousand cheer for the South, the
louder will the lower ten million cheer for the
North. The democracy have found able and
resolute leaders; they are no longer inarticu-
late as a herd of cattle, and henceforth you
may be assured the hostility Of our high caste
will be sure guarantee Of popularity among
the low castles. The world, you know, gener-
ally acts by oppositions. So keen is the strife,
so strong the alienation between the rich aud
the poor in this country, that when the one
say Aye" to any proposition, the other will
be pretty sure to shout may" must re-
serve for another letter an account of the
personnel of the General Committee of the
Emancipation Society (which includes all the
speakers and getters-up of these meetings)
and also the reflected action Of this move
ment of the popular heart upon our domestic
politics and social organizations, tchich /
am sure tciU be great.
The echo of these meetings will be heard in
the Cabinet Council, in the Carleton Club and
the places where the tory party cabals. in every
mansion of the land. 1t will strengthen the
hands Of the Duke OF fArgyle and such others
among the aristocracy as are your friends; it
will warn those Of your enemies, whose preju-
dices are not sufficiently strong to overcome
their reason, not to press further in the evil
and dangerous path on which they have enter
ed. Those land fear they are the majority
whose passions are SO violent whose reckless
ness is so great, and whose foresight is so
borne that warning is thrown away upon
them, must some day meet that fate which, in
this age, will surely overtake all selfish and
malignant oligarchs.
