handed way Of showing their hostility to
Mr. Bdgbt's host at Dublin was a noted
anti-slaecry man, Mr.. Jas. Haughton. No
American abolItf0nfst OF any experience can
be fgnorant of afr, Hanghton's name. For
years and years, when the future Of AmcIi-
can slavery looked black as night, and not
streak 0f light was to be seen, this veteran
lover of his rncc helped on the courageous few
who we're lnhorine iu America agutust the
stubborn wrong, by his purse, his sympathy
and his pen. Few will forget bis scathing
letter to John Mitchell, when that missuide

Of the South. Mr. Haughto1 Is rigid tee
totaller, and is very active In the Temperance
