HE SCORED FIsKE.

Or. r. s. Brock followed briefly, and
somewhat warmly. in his objections, more
particularly 10 the work Of Professor
Fske, urging that the whole performance
Of Fiske was venal. and that while
Fskes ability was beyond question, the
very fact Of his birth and his environ
ments rendered him utterly incapable Of
presenting fairly and justly the history
OF the whole country. He insisted, that
to insure full justice to the South
one TO the manner born should write It.
BY invitation Of the chairman Hon. w.
W. Henry next addressed the meeting,
and reviewed the causes Of the civil war.
and seemed 10 imply that the strife was
probably due more 10 the institution Of
slavery than anything else He recited
the discussions before the war, abiding
to the efforts towards the alienation Of
the cause, giving somewhat cursorily the
history of the so-called Missouri compro-
mise.
Dr. Brock differed with Mr. Henry as
90 slavery being the prime cause. main
tanning that its perpetuation and extern
sion was not the animus Of the sOutherner,
and more particularly the Vlrginlan, since
Virginia was the scene OF the warfare,
and Virginia was the older of the States.
He stated that slavery was fixed upon
Virginia, but the protests OF It's legsa-
lures against It were constant and con-
tinuOus that the founders OF our republic
were men Of broad philanthropy. and that
they desired earnestly the emancipation
Of the slave.
