A long, low cliff juts out into the
sea just north of Airlieford, and
among the heather in the lingering twi-

considered each phrase.

Pres' Haw|ey's Failure
He Cites the Constitution and
Quotes History.
But Does Not Make Out Black Record
for Old John Brown.

President Hawley utterly failed
last night to prove that John Brown
occupies place in history such as he
assigned to him in his Eugene lee.
ture.
MR.. HAWLEY'S LECTURE.
For two years, the speaker said he
had been discussing the rise and fall
of the s'aye power and would now
continue the course by few readings
from history on John Brown and
Kansas, and the causes that lead ur
to the civil war.
John Brown was an incident, rather
than an essential to this history
Slavery was an economic evil and a
social wrong. He was anti-slavery
and northern, and had followed the
constitution down, and utteraDces of
Abraham Lincoln.
He had only introduced his remarks
about John Brown at the close of his
lecture and only followed Abraham
Lincoln, and he sincerely regretted
that he had used words that hurt the
feelings of Others.
His reference to John Brown at
Eugene was only incidental. He had
treated the question purely historical
and had no malice in doing so. He
was raised in a strong Lincoln neigh
borhood and had warm friends in the
Grand Army.
There were three phases Of John
Browns life-frst his private, quiet
life, his deeds at Kansas and Harper's
Ferry, and his execution.
If he were to deliver an grafton on
what John Brown hoped to do, his as
piration to deliver an enslayed race
he could arouse the dead. But his
tory of his acts and his deeds was
another matter. Pres. Hawley now
read from a number of histories, that
gave brief accounts of the Kansas
border warfare and the assault or
Harper's Ferry.
These histories all go to show that
John Browns object was to free the
slaves, not to create an insurrection
she had gone out rifle in hand to kill
slavery" Longfellow and Emerson
declared his attacks on slavery set the
date of new era in history. He
had resolved to strike fatal blow al
slavery and struck it.

abused his confidence, and he de-
