The Liberator from Boston, Massachusetts • 3

whole stoxkbsr 63 sr ''1' "'r' 'i lht fcmaft itHO nbuudon ull his view of public policy on other points and to disclaim all his otherf political principles nntl'to vote for meh merely be cause they coll themselves Liberty without re 'gard to their opinions on other points then it is equally true that anti slavery consistency requires nousiichthing of him: Anti slavery haw no right to de mand of any man to give up any of his opinions or excepting so far ns they stand in the wayof the abolition of slavery To be sure a man who refuses to votvthe whole ticket with his party is by that party as having deserted but if he fohoosc to consider himself still member of it and to strive to purify it from its pro slavery pollution and to elevate it to his ideal of Whig or Democratic per always without giving the least countenance to its nominations or measures that have any the least looking towards slavery and no just excep lion can bctaken to his position on anti slavery grounds or example Air Earle of Philadelphia is in principle a Democrat and believes that the gene rl policy of the Democratic party is that which will most effectually promote the prosperity of the coun try But he refuses to act with it in any case where his support would help to sustain slavery or hinder abolition and has even voted for Whigs who held an ti slavery opinions Mr Child of New York on the other hand is a Whig in principle and holds to the soundness of the general policy of the Whig party but still refuses to sustain it in any pro slavery nomina lion or measure hns I believe voted for anti slavery Democrats notwithstanding his Whiggism Still I apprehend that both thee gentlemen regard themselves as belonging to the Whig and Democratic parties respectively whether the parties will recog nize their membership or not And I conceive that as long as they maintain this attitud they fare justly liable to no censure on anti slavcryi grounds Nay Ilin my opinion if it be true as I believe it isthat they have voted for men of an opposite political com because they were abolitionists this was an highly honorable' to them' which was not demanded of them by anti slavery duty The slave has a right to demand of them as his friends that they will not sacrifice him to their political opin Jons he has no right to demand that they sacrifice their political opinions to him If they choose to do this in view of the great gulph that separates him from the men who are to be affected by other lines of poli cy and are willing to yield their own i rights and in terests and those of their class for the speedier re demption of the Pariahs of the land it is a magnani mous and generous action and deserving ofall honor butI do not see that rii can be demanded of them as an imperative duty If they cast their: votes for abolitionists of their own way of political thinking thus bearing their testimony against the pro slavery nominations of their respective parlies it is all that anti slavery consistency can require of them even though the opposite party should set up abolitionists os their candidates' 7 Suppose in the re arrangement of parties which seems to be inevitable at this time of the general break ing up of the old political deeps one or the other of them should call itself the northernparty and make anti slavery one of its cardinal points Suppose too that it received on the one hand the doctrines of free trade and an independent treasury or on the other hand of a tariff and a national bauk would it be the duty of abolitionists who believed the sys tem of policy thus wedded to the anti slavery policy of the new party to bo mischievous to support it I think not Probably most abolitionists in such case would sink their minor differences of opinion and unitewith the parly that aimed at the destruction of slavery but I do not think that they could be rightfully blamed for refusing to 'do so provided they in no wise sus tained the southern or pro slavery party Every abo Irtionist is to judge of the relative importance of his other opinions and to decide whether it is his duty to abandon them for a time on account of the paramount importance of the slave's cause or still to maintain them in connection with a faithful anti slavery testi mony' If lie make his anti slavery opinions subordi nate to his tariff or anti tariff opinions and supports men for the sake of the one or the other at the expense ofthe slave he is a traitor to the cause of humanity and is not worthy of the name of an abolitionist So as to the church If by coming of a church i be meant the refuing? to recognize as a church of Christ a body that buys and sells their own brethrenand sisters or is in communion with any that commit tolerate or apologize for this crime or refuse to bear a faithful testimony against it there can be no doubt that such a coming is the duty of every true ab olitionist But if it be meant by it that a man is to re nounce any of his religious opinions either as to doc trine or discipline such a position is untenable and would be grossly tyrannical if it could be maintained True anti slavery demands the sacrifice of no opinions or practices cxceptsuch 'as sustain the system of sla very The anti slavery Methodist Baptist or Churchman is not calledupon by hisduty to the slave to give up his creed or his discipline but merely to apply them both faithfully to the matter of slavery as he does to all other crimes If the body to which he belongs obstinately persist in baptizing and communing with slavery then anti sl ivery has a right to urge upon him kSthe inconsistency of acknowledging sucha filthy body as the Church of Christ and to call upon him not so much to out as to declare that he was never in and to repudiate the idea of such a lump of rottenness being the Spouse of the Lainb If he still choose to re gard himself as a member of the true Methodist Bap tist or Episcopal church still holding all the tenets and maintaining the discipline he deems divine anti slavery has no quarrel with him If he gives all he hits to give it is all that anti 3lavery can ask If a minister or a church does faithfully treat slavery its perpetrators and apologists as they do all other crimes and criminals holding back no whit of the deuuncia lion or the discipline that they mete out to the sepa rate crimes 'that compose it their duty is done in this particular If they refuse to do this then they are written down hypocrites by their own admissions and deserve to be scouted by all true Anti slavery has no right to demand of a man to give up his Methodism Congregationalism Unilarianism or Uni verialism his belief in church ministry or Sabbath' any more than it has to demand the reception of any of these opinions It may and does demand of him to expend the uttermost farthing of power and influ ence that he possesses in liis ecclesiastical as well as liis civil relations 'for the extinction of slavery If lie do this with an honest and sincere heart it is all that can be required of him If his minister his church or hj ecclesiastical connexion are proved by their fruits to be wedded to slavery and hostile to genuine anti slavery then consistency requires of hint to treat them" as if they had committed or countenanced any of the "single crimes which slavery is the a few of which are uncleanncrs robbery theft cruelty and murder Anti slavery may not demand of him to say that there is no ministry ofthe gospel no church of but it must ask him whether a man or a body tiof men whatever title they may assume who are guilty of this or that sin of omission or commission can be either the one or the other and whether lie is not faithlessto God and to duty in sustaining them Anti slarery has nothing to do with a man's opin ions in Church or State excepting so far as they ro late to but it Jias every thing indo with his a practices His opinions he must form for himself but wbenlitkhas formed and proclaimed them then anti slavery rigidly exacts their faithful application to tho subject of slavery It may not require as matter of duty coming out from party or sect any farther than is necessary to perfect fidelity to the interests of slave But this it does demand and of this fidel ty it claims to have the right to judge and to rebuke ftny Inconsistency or An abolitionist not renounce liis Calvinism' or Uniturianism bis opcn communion Jiis strict observance or disuse of church discipline his divine order of minis try or liis holy days He need not repudiate his opinions nbcut banks or tnriffsnr treas uries But let him see to it tint he suffers' none ofthese things to lie heavy upon the soul of the slave and to retard the hour of bis deliverance I cinniit leave this subject without glancing at the ludicrou inconsistency of the position of those inn in pulpits nd utnf thnni who are crying nloud in all nicn to come nut and be separate from their politi cal parties on account of their incurably pro slaverycharacter ami to joi their Liberty and stilj remain in the great or small ser ts which tliC'Candi date fir the Presidency of the Liberty party himself has published to all mankind firm the main wark of shivery To hear men who if they do not admit slaveholders to lheir pulpits or communion tat hies yet welcome to them such men as Moses Stuart Daniel Sharp Elijah Hadding and Hubbard Wins low men infinitely more profligate in their opinionsand their conduct respecting slavery because with less temptation than any reverend man stealer in tle land to hear such men denouncing the political part ies as incurably corrupt through their connexion with slavery and warning men to fly from them to tho city of refuge they have provided is almost loo much for huinin risible to endure absurdity almost takes off the edge of our of its wicked ness It is like Mother Cole in the farce groan ing over the wickedness of the age while she busily plica her calling of a bawd It is like a gang of pirates and murderersrexclainiing against the enormity of shop lifting and picking pockets Is it not plain for what purpose these men have created or adopted the Lib erty whatever may have been the motive of Is it not as clear as sunlight that their only occasion fur it islo use it as a screen for their own wickedness and that of their denomination Is it not evidently mere conductor to guide the electric flash of righteous indignation against oppression from the Church to the world A' mere covering up of the wickedness of the Church A device for divert ing the attention ofthe people from the guilt of the clergy' and Church to that? of the far less guilty politi ciansand State? Truly the brand of falsehood and hy pocrisy is burned into the shameless foreheads ofthese men even to the The Buffalo Convention of Men of Color All colored men not abolitionists The same evil influences are at work to tempt the selfish heart beating beneath a colored bosom that are potent to hold tho fearful white man in thraldom It was grat ify ing to witness tho fidelity of those men of color who arc abolitionists when the call for this Conven tion appeared They suspected (what afterwards proved to be the case) that it was planned by new organization influences and while some fully con vinced in their own minds warned their brethren ngainst it others put the enquiry Js it called for the purpose of strengthening the new or gnnization and the Liberty party The answer en veloped in much goodly talk was has nothing to do with new But no answer could be obtained as to its connexion with the Liberty party a connexion which some already begin to be ashamed of as in New England at least Liberty party is new organization and new organization is pro slavery notwithstanding the excellence of here and there an individual who has been unfortunate ono ugh to be caught in it It is a matter of thankfulness whenever the spirit of freedom and of good of love forgiveness aqd mag nanimity prevails even in a single heart over evil hatred force revenge and littleness It did so in a measure at this Convention the address to the slaves ofthe Reverend II II Garnett expressing the idea that the time for insurrection had come having been rejected Bad counsels have the religious and the political bodies of which he is a member given him We say emphatically to the man of color trust not the counsels that lead you to the shedding of blood That man knows nothing of nature human or Divine of character good or evil who imagines that a civil and servile war would ultimately promote free dora Little must the man of color have reflected who does not see that the white than who now stim ulates his feelings of revenge or his trust in violence would be the first to desert nnd deny him should he be weak and rash enough to yield to such promptings Many things are said and done under the stimulus of political meetings for which men are afterward? sorry and it is to be hoped that the sentiments of this ad dress as read to the Convention and the correspond ing ones uttered at the nominating Convention of the Liberty parly were of this kind Stay the begin nings' is our earnest warning to all who are begin ning to talk about insurrection But as an individual and a non resistant and as a member of the American Society pledged in our own soul by the knowledge of right and do the community by our membership with that Society we earnestly entreat all concerned or free colored or white as they value peace of mind and freedom to labor in the anti slavery cause by whose moral power alone slavery can be ubolish ed Never in any wny to countenance the oppres sed in vindicating their rights by resorting to physical force' Constitution of the American Society We entreat tho Rev II Garnet to consider be times the track nt the entrance of which he stands He is a professed minister of the gospel of Christ Does he find that gospel in harmony with his address? Does he find his Divine Master counselling war to the knife and tho knife to the hilt when He address ed tho weary and the heavy laden of earth Did He bid the Jewish tributary or the foreign slave to fight Did He specify a time when forbearance to shed blood would cease to be a virtue? or ever preach that the time to strike had come? But we fervently hope that Mr Gurnet bad no other or further intentions than merely to write what be thought a high sounding address We would fain hope that he would be shocked to find his counsels taking effect That they will uot be is demonstrated in part by the rejection of the address We wish it had been more complete ly demonstrated by the rejection of the resolution committing tho Convention to Liberty party We dread the tendency to ballots They are but one re move from bloodshed Tho fewer there are who be comc'political partizans and the more there are to preach and to live a truly heroic and holy life (with which it does not take a non resistant to confess that partizanship under republican institutions is not com patible so generally is it acknowledged by thinking men) the sooner will the peaceful extinction of slave ry be accomplished The Convention however with all its mistakes and wrong doing is providentially overruled against slave ry It proved conclusively the essential equality of lhajcolored with the white man fur there was we learn as much ability in calumniating as much craft and contrivance and as much misapplication of good abilities to get the Convention under clerical control as ever disgraced a new organized meeting when the Jay members were rebellious Much as Messrs Douglass and Rernond have been missed by the friends in Ohio it seems hardly to be regretted that they yielded to their desire of attending this Convention where they did so much good (kJ All friends of the anti slavery cause who have promised contributions cither

Bradburn says (Aug 31st) is tLe third day that ih" peo ple have crowded to it in immense numbers On the first day I had the curiosity to count the horses siattd ing around tho Liberty and numbered four hundred nnd the second day there rwaa a still larger number but to div ut many owing probably to the weather not being promising This is tt meeting worth the expense und 1 have here seen the need of a goodly number of speakers for the people desire to hear us almost from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof and it happens that all our friend saving erris and mvsclf have been and are suffering under It will occasion poignant' regret to all who arc aware of devoted labors last year in the formation of this flourishing Society that be should have: been prevented by severe illness from having the saiisfnction of being present at this meeting The Ohio State Society having year before last dissolved its connexion with the American Anti Slavery Socie ty on the reception by its Managers of a letter from Mr Lewis Tappan (into the statements of which they ought to have made enquiries before urging ac tion) the Onio American AvS Society was con sequently formed auxiliary to the American A So ciety Unless Mr Collins should hove so fanre covered as to have entered into communication with the Pennsylvania State Board and the friends at the West respecting the Pennsylvania Con ventionr those friends ate requested to communicate with each other for the arrangement of time and place We regret to state that his last letter to Boston friends though full of interest and encouragement as to the cause was not written by his own hand and gives rise to the most painful apprehensions as to his health rom Mr Rernond and Mr White we have the following interesting letters Letter from William A White Oakland (Ohio) Sept Gtli 1843 Dear riend Since I wrote last our party has left New York State and traversed the State of Ohio from one corner to the other every where meeting a cordial recep tion nnd finding minds ready to receive the anti sla very truth we wished to pour into them Gay hns probably written to you of our reception by Mr Gid dings and our first landing in this State All that his warm reception and the first meetings augured for the State have been fully realized At Salem wo had the largest real mass meeting we have had since we left home The meeting was held in tho woods as no building in the neighborhood could accommodate us Judge King presided and for two days the woods were alive with the eager crowd who swarmed in from the country round to attend In the evening two churches were thrown open and addresses were made in each rom thence we passed to New Lisbon and held an afternoon and evening meeting and then held our next meeting at Mnrlboro One remarkable fact about this place is that every man woman and child with but one exception have signed the temperance pledge Here also we were obliged to hold pur meeting in the woodson the second day Ono feature in which the Ohio meetings differ from the Massachusetts ones is this: that all the mothers bring their babies and though sometimes when ten or a dozen set up a shout it is a little annoying on thd vvhole it adds to the in terest of the meetings from the desire it shows in the mothers to attend These gatherings in God's temple are most beautiful spectacles In the midst of the noble and lofty trees the seats are arranged and a rough stand for those who are to address the meeting And one may at the same lime hear the earnest voice of the speaker and see the glories of temple in which no priest can claim a pro scription or shut out any on sectarian grounds We next held a meeting at Massillon a thriving business place or the canal and in the midst of a mighty wheat growing region We met here the first opposition wejiave encountered in this State from a young lawyer named Norton and a Methodist priest named Amblei who seems to be most appropriately named for from his speaking I imagine he ambles most highly over the sins of his people Neither of their speeches were worthy of notice and I believe the pro slavery people who made them their cats paws were ashamed of them before they finished Poor Norton after abusing the abolitionists generally for an hour or more ended by a glowing compliment to old Garrisonians which of course was very severe on us Massillon is a herd place though we met warm friends In the morning we passed over to Wooster where nn appointment had been made for a meeting in the afternoon On arriving we found no place could be had but the open market place in the public square where I commenced speaking at the appointed time to a large but strong pro slavery audience An ani mal (for I cannot call him a man) named Benjamin Jones a former loco member of Congress from this district stood forward and with unblushing effronte ry pronounced every statement I made a lie in a loudvoice He denied that Lovejoy was shot and though he did not deny that Garrison was led Ly the Chris tians of Boston through the streets with a halter about his neck he asserted that he ought to have been hung And tiiis man is a representative in Congress James Monroe lectured in the evening though there were threats of a mob and one house was egged in the night We passed to Utica holding a day meeting by the wpy at Amity I have been disappointed in the ap pearance of the Ohio'towns us notwithstanding the abundance and cheapness of land the houses are crowded close together and look us though they had been built in the woods and getting frightened had rushed pell mell together and stood in compact rows both great and small i At Utica we had a fine meeting and met many of the old and warm friends of the cause On the morn ing of the second day Gen Warner a noted whig in those parts made a long and labored speech in oppo sition to the anti slavery cquse It was the same old story except an attempt to make the abolitionists out to be tho immediate successors of the Jacobins of the days of terror Monroe replied and a more com plete overthrow I have never seen He brought wit satire and rcasun to bear and if the man was not en tirely overthrown it was because like a feather he was entirely blown away by the first burst of artillery The General pronounced Mr Monroe a young man of the most splendid talents on the principles of the pa rent of the Indiana boy who could flog all the world and his father could flog him Whatever the Gener al thought the audience considered it the most bril liant and complete answer to pro slavery logic that has ever been made in these diggins' rom thence we passed to Oakland escorted the first twelve miles by a procession of ten carriages nnd overtaking the old Liberator nt Green plains with Bradburn and erris on board we formed a procession of seven carriages and three horsemen to keep together the rest of the way 'We visited the cliffs a great natural curiosity where the Miami makes a passage for half a mile through the solid rock fifty feet below the level of tho ground There has been but one thing to tnar our pleasure that Charles and rederick have not been ''with us We were warmly received by Dr Brooke and havo met many of the free spirits of Ohio of whom I have heard much and was overjoyed to see The Etale meeting in Liberty Hall was a great gathering Glori

principally of the advocates and friends of Liberty party the following resolution among others was unanimously adopted 1 Resolved That we have seen with sorrow and astonishment the indifference contempt and open opposition with which this great movement of the world towards practical Clyistianity is regarded by a large portion of the clergy and professed Christians of our country evincing on their part a lack ofinterest in the welfare of suffering humanity andean unbelief as dark and as obstinate as that of the high priest of Judaism when the mighty works ot the Redeemer were wrought in their midst and affording a melan choly proof of their utter blindness to the life and power of the gospel which they profess and to its miraculous agency in the regeneration and redemption of the We have seldom seen a resolution more serious charges against large portion of the clergy and professed Christians of our country that embraced in tho above resolve and stronger language could hardly be employed abating perhaps the elon gated pious sentences towards the close which appear to be used for the double purpose of showing sound ness in the faith and for rounding off the period And yet this resolution comes from a meeting'com posed of clergymen and church members many of whom three years ago 'dissolved their connexion with the Massachusetts Anti Slavery Society because it denounced ministers nnd churches so severely that they would not fellowship it We should rejoice to receive this testimony as the hearty conviction of the men who make it and as minds enlightened by the church and ns evincing a follow the light of truth as case as in multitudes of others we are constrained to regard the whole os a mere flourish" of trumpets a joining in the cry which is now every where raised by the true anti slavery voice of thief! in or der to keep up appearances and to divert the public attention from their own position And as the only and ns we judge the good and sufficient reason we give for this opinion is that the very who bring these charges against a large portion of the clergy and professed Christians of our are giving the right hand of fellowshipto these same clergymen and professed Christians and are thus doing the very thing to keep them in countenance and to confirm them in their oppositions to the anti slavery reform But whatever may be the influence which forces out this late nnd unwilling assent to the truth' we re joice that it is out and can only1 wish that those who make these assertions may act in consistency with themj by dissolving all fellowship with these unbe lieving and followers of the high priest of i But let us for moment dwell upon the awful character of the allegations here produced They are first charged with indifference to the cause of the slave: Nearly three millions of humans beings are writhing under tlieJash of the cruel taskmaster 'and enduring all imaginable horrors that it is possible for human beings to under the most dreadful sys tem of tyranny and blood that ever cursed the earth aue that too in their own land at their very door and within sight and hearing of the victims as they groan and bleed and die and these professed of Jesus are indifferent 1 But this is not all They are not only indifferent careless senseless unfeeling in view of the dreadful condition but they go farther and even pour contempt on the nnti slavery move ment and of course on all those who have actively espoused that cause they unite voice with the general clamor of a wicked and oppressive generation and cry? Away with him crucify Instead of joining in their self denying and perilous labors to break every yoke and let the oppressed go free they taka the shortest way of stabbing the cause to the heart by heaping contempt and contumely uponthe slave best friends But these are not alb the counts In this dreadful in To this indifference and contemptJ they add an We wish this" were true i i 3 11 but instead of being open and above boardwhich could easily have been met and resisted it has on the contrary been 'hidden and insidious like the ser approach beneath the and tvhose pres ence is not suspected until the deadly fang is fasten And you begin to feel i The deadly poison through the system steal 1 These have been' the deadliest foes of the open and avowed enemies have been easilyde feated in tlfeir attacks but the stealthy and cautious insinuations xof cunning? end designings men have been less easily foiled But yet they have openly opposed and unlike their predecessors the priest and lovite who passed by on the other side 'these have crossed over to you and while your wasoutstretched to raise up the poor man who has fallen 'among thieves they too have stretched out their' hand not to aid youf but to palsy your arm?
