We. make the following extract from
speech by Wm. Lloyd Garrison, In answerto
Wendell Phillips OF Boston, on the annlver-
cary OF the American A2ti-slArer5 Society,
Our friend Phillips has satd, very truly,
principle, that once in four years they mean
10 look their administration in the face, and
sec If it Is worth while to change It. But
haye not committed themselves to the one
term pyineiple-they have not been 10 fool
ith aa that they say that every four Jsass
they will look and zee whether they WI!
change their Pre- sIdent or not; batthsy hold
to III principle that theJ may keep him in
Office for eight, twenty or fifty years, Il 10
and they live long enough and they like
zach other well snouxh. .(Applauss.) So
they are coming together this season to look
At him; aud lean only express the eonvis; ;;

come together, and eha1 look the fact in tho
iace, 1ha1 No man in this naion is now 80
