rity with such scenes begets indifference; the tone of public sentiment is lowered; soon cases pass as matters of course, and the community, burnt over with previous excitement, is doubly steeled against all active sympathy with the sufferers. What was usurpation yesterday is precedent to-morrow. When we asked the Supreme Court of Massachusetts to interfere in Sims's behalf, on the ground that the law of 1850 was unconstitutional, they declined, because the law was much the same as that of 1793, and that was constitutional, because is held and submitted to. Surely, tyranny should have no such second acquiescence to plead. Yet that public feeling, so alert, so indignant at the outset, already droops and grows cold. Government stands ever a united, powerful, and organized body, always in session, its temptations creeping over the dulled senses, the wearied zeal, or the hour of want. The sympathies of a people for the down-trodden and the weak are scattered, evanescent, now excited,

It is, then, properly a part of the act of 1793, and acting under it is not only substantially within the prohibitio, included in that prohibition. At any rate, how do the statutes of 1793 and 1850 differ? In 1793, Cauoress enacted that certain State offic1793, Cauoress enacted that certain State officers should be ex officio slave-catchers. Massachusetts, in 1843, forbade her magistrates to accept the authority. In 1850, Congress makes itm taking part in the execution of that act, as much as of the act of 1793? Look at the case, Gentlemen. A sovereign State issue her mandat

eat leaders,--like Mohammed, like Napoleon, like Cromwell, like John Brown [cheers],he could preach as well as fight,--mounting a hillock, and getting the ear of the crowd, exclaimed: Brothers, this blood will not wipe out the insult to our chief; only the blood in yonder French camp can wipe it out. To shed that is courage; to shed this is cowardice and cruelty beside ;--and he saved fifteen hundred lives. [Applause.] I cannot stop to give in detail every one of his efforts. This was in 1793. Leap with me over seven years; come to 1800; what has he achieved? He has driven the Spaniard back into his own cities, conquered him there, and put the French banner over every Spanish town; and for the first time, and almost the last, the island obeys one law. He has put the mulatto under his feet. He has attacked Maitland, defeated him in pitched battles, and permitted him to retreat to Jamaica; and when the French army rose upon Laveaux, their general, and put him in chains, Toussaint
