o his Wife. Bensonville, July 26, 1848. Ms. To-day there is to be a Free Soil Convention in Northampton, and several of us will go down this afternoon to judge of its character and spirit—dispensing with our usual bath. The defection from the Taylor and Cass ranks, in this section of the Zachary Taylor. State, appears to be considerable, and is every day increasing. Lewis Cass. It seems probable, now, that there will be no choice of electors in Massachusetts, by the people, at the November election. So the event proved (Lib. 18: 182). I long to see the day when the great issue with the Slave Power, of the immediate dissolution of the Union, will be made by all the free States, for then the conflict will be a short and decisive one, and liberty will triumph. The Free Soil movement inevitably leads to it, and hence I hail it as the beginning of the end. The new movement had had a somewhat rapid development. From Cincinnati, in May, had issued a call for a Lib. 18.82.

e, and that it is I who have often whispered in his mental ear: Go on, my friend, for there is more with us than against us— if not bodily, surely there is spiritually, for God and all the good are with us. It is one of the minor puzzling curiosities of spiritual manifestations that certain characters attach themselves to an individual inquirer, and present themselves to him through divers mediums, both in his presence and in his absence. Thus it was with the disembodied Rogers, or his impersonator, who, in the same month of September, 1851, sent another message of reconciliation through Ms. Oliver Johnson by a boy medium near Waterloo, N.

ably the greatest lawyer in the U. S., and not surpassed in the world; but he wants to be Chief-Justice, the highest judicial dignity in the country, and would do anything to qualify himself for it. He is not to be confounded with his brother, the Commissioner [George Ticknor Curtis], who sent Sims back [ante, p. 327], and who has been roasted in sundry and divers D. Y. letters [Quincy's Boston correspondence in the Anti-Slavery Standard]. Indictments against both the orators were found in November (Lib. 24.190, 202).

They had written for arms and means of defence, and declared in their letters that fighting suasion was the most important institution in the new Territory. See John Brown's own account of the Convention in Sanborn's Life of him, pp. 193, 194. Among the donors was Capt. Charles Stuart—a clear case of British Gold.
