ran 1.1mm TOWN MEETINGS!-
Great Republican Triumph!
10,000 Majority for Lincoln.
The elections which took place on Monday
last have resulted gloriously to the Repub-
.:lican cause.
,.
The list embraces 128 towns, of which the
Republicans have carried 95, the Opposition
."30, and .3 are divided, in accordance with
“agreements. The Republicans gain 23 and
--the Shamsz; net Republican gain 21, or
more than two fifths of the whole strength
of the Shams. ' ‘
From our exchanges we clip the following
cheering reports :—
‘ WELL DONE LITTLE Damian—We under-
stand the Republicans of Darien elected a
majority of the Selectmen and other town
officers on Monday last. The Wide Awakes
were truly wide awake there. It is many
years since the opponents of Shamocracy
have had the control of town 'oflicers here-
, tofore.
GREENWIcn.-—The Wide Awakes came so
near defeating the combined elements ofLoco-
focoism, Douglasism, Bell-Everetism, Know-
Notlringism; &c., on Monday last. in the Dem-
ocratic toWn of Greenwich, as to make the
opponents of Free Soil, Free Speech and Free
* Homesteads tremble, in view of the hearty
drubbing they are to receive in November.
‘ Majority abOutfour!
Eamon—This town gives a Republican
majority of 76.. A good day’s work. '
ALL HAIL, Barnesronrl—The corrupt
~' centre of Fairfield Co. Doughfacism is re-
deemed! The election of Monday resulted
in-the choice of the Hon. D. H. Sterling, for
Mayor, by 80 majority, and the whole Repub-
lican ticket. The entire Democracy fused
for the occasion. Let ‘us take courage—the
great Revolution is going forward too. certain
triumph. The vote'was over 1200, and the
' largest ever given there at a similar election.
The Standard says that “ about two-thirds of
the votes were polled after 12 o’clock, making
a lively time for two or three hours. After
rather a quiet time in the morning, our oppo-
nents made a rush, apparently supposing they
could easily win, because it rained! The rule
don’t work this year. It would have succeed-
ed yesterday, but there wore sundry “Wide -
Awakes on hand.” At the close of the polls,
the Democrats claimed a victory by 30 or 40,
and the Republicans by 81. The majority
for Republican Mayor Was 80.
Hurrah for Brookfield! This hitherto
always Democratic town has gone largely Ber
publican! The" Republicans ran a straight
ticket, and won the day. Conversions of
some of the honest-intending Hunkers who
‘ have been on the anxious seat, must be the
explanation. _

‘lican town. The Stamford Advocate says z»—
-DEMOCRACY NOWHERE—CAVED Ire—Nev-
"er since the days of Polk and Dallas, until
Monday last, did an election come off in this
town for State and town officers, without a
ticket in the field,headed with glaring capitals
“ Democratic ticket.” In vain did we look
for a. Democratic ticket, at the late election—
but nowhere could one be found. The Sham
Democratic flag is hauled down, so far as old
Stamford is concerned—its heretofore ardent
supporters have sold out and surrendered to
the “ Know-Nothing Bell-Everett Union par-
ty.” A ticket Was put in circulation, headed
“ Union ticket," and warmly supported by
all the ends and fro. cuts of opposition to
Republican princip es. Every vehiclcn at
liberty, was ut in requisition; and, taking
advantage of a stormy day, they hoped to
succeed; but the result has completelydc-
molished all their anticipated glory. '
The Ball Opens To-Day! ‘ ,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, the”. ad-
vance guard of November’s contest, hold
their State Elections to-day. That we have
serious apprehensions of the result in Penn-
sylvania—that grand theatre .of partizan
frauds and cheating—we are free to admit,
yet we have the most sanguine assurances
from those who are well-informed and likely
to know the result that the land of Penn.
. will prove as true to the cause of Freedom,
as Ohio is suretodo. So, says the Tribune,
..shall the electric wires on Tuesday night,
flash light and joy to millions of free ,hearts
. in every part. of the Union, proclaiming that
-, the struggle is virtually ended—that the era

The New York Wide Awake Demon-
stration.
This grand affair which came off _ on
Wednesday last, is admitted by the entire
press to have been the lamest and most b7‘2‘l-
lz'anl demonstration ever made upon this con-
tinent. The number present was not as
large as at first anticipated, owing fo'scvcral-
monster local demonstrations in Philadel-
phia, Chicago, etc., but was grille large
enough, embracing, as nearly as can be esti-
mated from the returns furnished to
the Grand Marshal, twenty thousand
young men. Some idea of the magnitude of
the procession may be obtained from the
facts that the torch—bearers marched sixteen
abreast, and that, according to the World, (a
neutral paper,) the procession was five miles
long. Delegations of Wide Awakes were
present from nearly every free State; among
the number from Maine were two sons of
Hannibal Hamlin. There was great variety
in the color of uniforms, some being made of
cnamellcd cloth of gilt, silver, drab, bright
red, blue and common black. The right of
the procession formed on 23d street, Fifth.
Avenue, and the line of march was down
Fifth-Avenue, Eighth Street, Broadway, and
up Chathaln, Bowery, &c., to Union Square-
The first division commenced marching about
8 o’clock, and ‘then, as the Tribune says;
“follOwed a river of fire, waving with the

came on, each new uniform and banner was
received with applause. Nowhere viesN
heard a word or sign of spite or hatred. So.
long was the first division that there was a
' lively discussion when it had passed, wheth-
er it was not the whole. But a few minutes
afterward the Avenue was again a sheet of
flame, and so again, and again, and again,un-
til the wondering crowd thought it never
would be done.” Many insisted that the
front had joined the rear, and were again
marching over the ground.
The following list embraces the companies
in the first division, in which the Connecticut
delegations were placed :
E. D. Morgan Light Artillery, numbering
100 men, under command of Capt. George
Mawbey. At the head of this corps were two
girls dressed a la Fllle du Regiment. .
Twentieth Ward Wide Awakes, Lreut. J.
B. Pollock commandingmumbering 200 men,
rank and file.
Twentieth Ward Artillery, with elegant
piece of ordnance. Several flags were carried
in the ranks, with the inscriptions, “Free
Speech,” “ Free Territory,” “ Lincoln and
Hamlin.”
The Ninth Ward ’Wide Awake Club, un-
der command of Capt. Ross, numbering 250
men, next followed in order,carrying in their
ranks three transparencies, with the follow-
ing inscriptions: “ With Freedom’s song we‘ll
quiet the nerves of 'the disunionists.” “ We
escort the original J acobs.” “ How Jacobs
has grown.” The Ninth Warders acted as
an escort to the
Hartford Wide Awakes, who followed
with a beautifully designed and painted trans-
parency, 'with the inscription—“ Original
Wide Awakes of Hartford.” This battalion
was composed of four companies, and num-
bered 300 men, rank and file. In their ranks
they carried a transparency, with the inscrip-
tion—“ The Fifty—six Infant Politicians ”
Next followed acompany of Wide Awakes
from Waterbury, CL, with a transparency
upon which was the inscription—“ Waterbu-
ry Wide Awakes, organized March 15,1860.”
They numbered 90 men, and were comman-
ded by Capt. Chatfield. ,
The New Haven Wide Awake battalion,
commanded by Maj. Stephen R. Smith,came
next in line, in the following order—Major
Stephen R.'Smith. Aids, Cephas B. Rogers,
Horace P. Dibble. New Haven Brass Band.
Company A, Capt. Lane, 100 men. Compa-
ny B, Capt Thompson, 150 men. Company
C, Capt. Graham, 100 men. Company D,
Capt. Blake, 100 men.
West Haven Wide Awakes, commanded
by Capt. Kelsey, including a delegation from
the Orange Wide Awakes, 65 men.
Westville Wide Awakes, Capt. Burgess, 25
men. ' .
. .Hamden Wide Awakcs, Capt. Pardee, 25
men. There also paraded with this Battal-
ion delegations fl'om Oxford, Fair Haven
and Woodbridge.
The Elm City Republicans had in their
line a large wagon drawn by four gray hor-
ses. On each side of the wagon was seated
the New Haven Glee Club, who sang during
the the progress of the procession a variety
of campaign songs.
The Sixteenth Ward Wide AWakes, num-
bering 300 men, Capt. Alexander McLeod,
followed. At the head of their column they
carried a white flag upon which was repre-
sented a large Shan hai, with the inscription
“The Game Cock ard.” The also had
numerous flags with the motto, “ ee Speech
and Free Men.”
Twenty-first Ward Wide Awake Club,
Ca t. Coachman, numbering 308 men.
hen came the Meriden Wide Awakes,
with 100'men, a fine Band of Music,Banners,
&c. These were followed by the
Norwalk and South Norwalk Wide Awake
Clubs, numbering over 90 men, under com-
mand of Capt. Henry M. Stanton. A trans-
parenc bore the name of the Club, “Nor-
walk ide Awake Club,” with an open eye
in the centre, and “Lincoln and Hamlin” on
each end.
The Danbury Wide Awakes, numbering
50 men, under command of Capt. E. Wild-
man, next made their appearance with a
banner upon which was the motto, “ The
Danbury Wide Awakes are for Protection to
Home Industry.”
Then came the Rhode Island delegations
numbering about 800 men, and after them a
battalion of 150 men from Bridgeport, under
command of Col. L. W. Middlebrook. They
carried in‘their ' ranks an elegantly painted
banner, with a portrait of Lincoln, and were.
preceded by a small company of Rail Splitters.
Then followed the Stamford and. New.Ca-
naan Wide Awakes, with the New Canaan
Brass Band.
The Tribune, in speaking of the parade in
Broadway, says:
The grandest view of the parade was now
to be had from artificial elevations on the rise
of ground near Leonard street. Except here
and ,there a great banner which hung like a
black cloud ill a sky of dazzling brilliancy,
there was nothing to break the view. Broad-
way was one river of fire; as though from
its Northern terminus Vesuvius had poured
forth a great torrent of molten lava, surging,
and rolling, and seething towards the ocean.
The martial swell of music, the firm and
manly tramp of the men, the inverted show—
er of many colored fires, likea torrent of me-
teors shot upward, the cheering of the specta-
tors, answered by the sharp, volleying “one,
two, three” of the Wide-Awakes, all conspi-
red to make a scene of the most novel and
inspiring character—a scene which can no
more be described than the Irving glories of
Niagara can be fixed on the painters canvas.
The effect of this wonderful display was
peculiar and significant. As in all crowds,
there were in this many thousands of that
particular class of city population which
lives upon idleness,; drinks corner-grocery
rum, and, as a matter of course, votes the
Democratic tickets. Dead Rabbits came up
from the Five Points, Short Boys poured ill
from Spring street, the gangs and factions
which burrow in the Fourteenth Ward were
wideanakc on the occasion’; and wherever
they congregated there was ribaldry and ob-
scenity, rowdy demonstrations, jeers and
threats. Some timid people anticipated
trouble at Worth street and othcrplpccs no-
ted for such scenes; but _when:thei‘rolid col-
umn of vigorbus and earnestggnlenég ‘u '_'d in-
to Broadway, and filledtbefstreec ,,,. curb

did not venture‘té make the least show of cp-
position. Except ihere and there a charac-
teristic oath or nasty expression, no annoy-
ance was experienced,,and long before the
line had passed their haunts, the rowdy claw
ment had slunk avvay; to more congenial pla-
ces. Remand - rufiiamsmv cannot stand the
light ; the torch of the, Wide Awake is Ithu-
riel’s spear to them. : .‘"“ ‘-
Everything passed off orderly and quietly,
—-unusually so—no ,disturbance of any. ac-
count taking place. It is reported that one’
Wide Awake was struck with a brick, but
not severely hurt, and that one bystander saw
stars immediately after feeling an “n river”

struck opposite the New York Hotel, but the
rT rl
quickness with which the torches of his com- _'
pauy came down from a “carry” to a “charge,"
scattered the crowd in allurry. One Wide
Awake column,wc noticed, was broken up,
and one of the members brought to the
ground, but it was a comical affair, caused by
one of the New Canaan company slipping
up, while filing down 22d street, to take up
their position.
“The feature of the parade WlllCll'llllDl'CSSOtl

bility of its component parts. .
showed a full frontof men who have an un-
mediate personal interest in the Government,
and they borc themselves with an earnestness
which showed a fixed and unaltcrable pur-
pose. There was no meaningless ycilmg, no
disorder, no drunkenness or profanity; but.
every man acted like a man. The fair mili-
tary precision of the movements, the harmoni—
sing effect of their uniforms,_ and the perfect.
order and discipline which reigned through-
out, told with excellent effect upon the peo~
plc, and “those who came to scoff remained
to ” become fully impressed that the great
Wide Awake. demonstration was the most
important and significant display ever made
in New 'ork."
)onuccticut was well represented in the
procession; and Clubs from Bridgeport, Dan-
bury, Stamford, New Canaan, Norwalk and
South Norwalk were present from Fair-field
County. . The Danbury and Bethe], and Nor-
walk and South Norwalk Clubs, with mem-
bers from the Wilton and Georgetown Clubs,
went down in the Confidence, leaving South
Norwalk at 1 o’clock PM. The boys enjoyed
themselvespnd the proceedings going down

White, Esq, of Danbury, Brother Croll‘ut, of

home again about five o’clock next morning,
rather sleepy, but fully impressed with the
lact that they had had a good time.

The Drayton’s
ENTERTAINMENT.
The people of Norwalk will have an op-
portunity on‘ Wednesday evening of relieving
our town ofthe imputation, sometimes, (and
too often with justice) laid upon us, that no
really select and refined entertainment can
find support here. The advent of the Dray-
ton’s we may as well state at the outset, was
not conceived of, and is not expected to re-
sult in a money making speculation. The
idea of inviting them hither was suggested
in a spirit of village pride, on the part of sev-'
eral friends of Mr. Lockwood, as a genteel,
and at the same time, rich and rare entertain-
ment, which might serve as a sort of open-
ing or dedabafion of his new Hall, which is
and well deserves to be. an object of univer-
sal admiration—as no such room is to be
found elsewhere in our State.
These gentlemen joined in a pledge of the
sale of such a number of tickets as should in
a measure secure the talented troupe from the
hazard of serious loss. As the expenses of
such a company are unavoidably large, and
our village much smaller than any which
they are .ustomed to visit, this course be-
came of rst necessity. And, perhaps we
should add that beyond this, our citizens are
principally indebted for the pleasure which
awaits them, to the personal exertions of 'P-
T. Barnum, through whose kind feeling to-
wards our citizens, have we been able to se-
cure their presence in Norwalk. Mr. A. H.
Camp has the diagram of the Hall, and tick-
ets corresponding to the numbered seats.—
These he will dispose of at 50 cents each, and
from the cncouragcmcnts already received,
and sales thus far made, we believe that no
more refined and genteel audience will have
ever been convened in Norwalk. The prob-
abilities are that the great majority of seats (at
least all those most desirable) will be thus sold
in advance and reserved, yet that none may
be excluded on account of price of admission,
unreserved chairs .will be sold on the evening
of the entertainment at 25 cents each.
The London Times has the following in.’
reference to them: “We do not remember
to have witnessed a more chaste and pleasing
performance than the Parlor Operas. The
rich vein of humor which pervades thcm
keeps up the excitement as well as the
amusement of the audience."

Juvenile Depravity.
A lad named John Cnhill, only about a
dozen years old, from Wilton, entered the
Packet Office of George Sellcck, last week,
opened‘his desk, took out the key of the safe
and helped himself to about $30 in bills, out
of a pile of a hundred or more, when he was
surprised by the entrance of another lad in-
to the office. With this amount be affected
his escape to Bridgeport, where he was or-
rested at the depot, Monday afternoon, while,
waiting for the New Haven train. While in
Bridgeport, among other things he took a
drive with a fast horse and a couple of fast
women—and managed to upset the vehicle
and spill out the occupants without any dum-
agc to either. He was brought back by Con—
stable Bissell and “sent up” to the State Rc-
form School. He had spent the most of the
money of ”course. Mr. Sclleck had stepped
outhor a few moments leaving the office in
charge of a younger brother, who, yielding
to sporting impulses, left it alone to shoot a
snipe, along side the dock. Frank missed
the snipe and the money too !

A ball from a Roman candle, fired from a
Wide Awake procession in Norwich, Sutur-

eye, injuring it so severely that it is feared
the sight is destroyed. The ball was fired at
the head of'a horse which Mr. B.was holding.

it will as a matter of course be taken fo

Ridgefield.
The third Anli‘ual Fair of the town of"
Ridgeficld was held under the tent of the
County Agricultural Society, on Wednesday
and Thursday, Oct. 3d and 4th. The Rev.
Wnl. II. Williams, of Ridgcficld, delivered the
opening addresson Wednesday:lflcruoounud
‘ l o e
the beginning.
the Rev. Clinton Clark spoke in the evening.
Thursday afternoon the largctcnt was crowd-
ed to its utmost capacity with eager listeners,
on the occasion of the Annual Address, dc-
livcrcd by Judge Culver of Brooklyn; The
Judge, aslle always does on whatever subject
he discourses upon, kept the attention of. his
audience throughout the whole of his master-
ly and eloquent Address, and, as usual, he
gave them a great quantil y of“ wholcsmm-
truths and facts to ponder on.
Thursday was also the day for horses and
cattle, of which there was a. fine display.
In the tent the display was fine, in some
things said to excel the recent. Fair of lilo.
County Society. Of apples there was a good
display of every conceivable size and variety,
while the Pears and Peaches made one‘s
mouth water; of Grapes and Flowers, there
was but a limited display; Potatoes of all
kinds in abundance; do. Bed Quilts; articles
of Domestic Manufacture were comparative-
l y scarce,—Fruits predominated.
We noticed several very handsome styles
of Carriages, which we presume wcrefrom
the Manufactory of Mr. Ebenezer Jones.
The Fair, taken as a whole, was a decided
success, and was, we think, as well attended
as our County Fair usually is. The only
drawback was the very heavy storm of rain
which came up about 3 12 o’clock Thursday
afternoon, and which of course cast a damper
on the out-door exhibition of Horses.
Among the notabilities present besides the
Ridgefield Band, we noticed D’Artois, from
South Norwallmvith his celebrated Ice Cream
and large banner, had a place assigned to him
inside the tent, while Northrop with a rival
tent filled with Norwulk delicacies, reigned
on the grounds outside.
The Lincoln and Hamlin Wide Awake
Club, to the number of about 40, H. K. Scott,
Captain, and with the Ridgefield Brass Band
to make music for them, turned out on Thurs-
day evening last, and marclled‘down the Main
street, to the residence of an old and tried
friend of the cause, Harvey Smith, Esq,
whom they honored with three cheers, after
which they met a delegation from George-
town, and escorted them to Catoonah llall,
where Cyrus Northrop, Esq., addressed them
upon the political topics of the day. After
the ting they again fell into line and
marched about town, saluting in their march
a number of the leading Republicans of the.
place.
v‘.’9 P——_.
W The Hartford C’om‘tmt claims “ the
honor,” for the Hartford Club, of being the
first to take up its assigned position, at the
late demonstration in New York. This is a
decided mistake. The Norwalk and Dan—
bury boys took up position first,and the Rhode
Island Delegation second. When our boys
marched'down past the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
at 6 o’clock, not an “original" Wide Awake
was to be seen ; and, indeed, judging from the
enthusiastic manifestations of curiosity exhi-
bited by the immense crowd that followed
them from foot of 25th street up to the 27th
street depot, we should think they were the
first Wide Awakes ever seen ill that scction of
the city. '

.we think valuable in the way of a counter
scale. It is the invention of Mr. Andrew
Turnbull of West Meridcn, which surpasses
anything of the kind we have ever seen.—
The use of all weights is avoided, and by
means of a thumb screw it can be correctly
balanced at any time, rendering it almost im-
possible to get out of order. It is finished up
in fine style, and reflects a great deal of‘cred-
it upon the inventor.

Westport Bridge Again.
ann Eol'ron :—How can you be so ready
to lend yourself to the first croukcr that comes
along? You are old enough to do things
more consideratcly. If you \vcrc going to
enlighten the community about Westport,
bridge, you should have taken llu- flu-ls flour
0n the 2d of June, 1857, a meeting was 5
called to consider the course to be taken in i
relation lo buildilig :I. new bridge, and on that
day Alva Gray, George Blackmail, and Zul-
mon Sundford were appointed a committee to
suggest a plan and cstimatc the expense of
building a bridge over Saugatuck river, and
report at. a future adjourned meeting. A
meeting was held to hear the report, and
unanimously voted to accept it. That report.
suggested :1 similar structure to the present
bridge.
On the 2d day of August, 1857, an appro-
priation of $6,000 was votcd for, and a corn-
millcc appointed, consisting of Alva Gray,
Farmcn l’ntcbcn, and Zulmou Sanford, logo
on with the worknccording to the plan pro-
posed by the former committee. This last
committee contracted for the middle and cost
piers, and the middle picr was built that fall a:
filled in in the course of the winter some 200
feet in length. The following spring the east
abut mcnts were contracted for, and the plan
of a draw made, and contract consummated
with a mechanic to build it. Mr. Sanfitrd,
being sick at the time, did not act, neither did
Mr. l’utchcn, he being out‘ of the State. It
was well known what the plan of’ the draw
was, but. no action was taken upon it. On
the 25th of June, 1858, Staples and Downs
Were appointed to act with Mr. Gray in tin—
ishing up the structurc. All these two latter
committee-men could do was to assist in push-
ing forward the work under the contract of
the senior comnnttee, except providing the
lumber and timber. This was done to the best
possible advantage, and laid down with the
greatest possible dispatch, and with particu-
lar reference to giving it the best possible ap-
pearance with the small sum of money they
had to work with.
On the arrival of the timber from South
Carolina, this “ abominable” committee had
to advance the cash to pay freight and charges,
finish this awful structure, before it could be
done; and you will see that these croakers
recommended the payment of a certain note
in Snug-stuck Bank that was given to raise
enough to complete the unsightly structure.
You see, Dear Editor, the consistency of
this whole thing. Our worthy Dr. B. was
one of acommittec to get upa plan to build
a bridge over 500 feet long for the sum of
$6,000, and then one to blow it sky high be-
cause it was not as good as your bridge, only
fifty feet long, that cost some $14,000—morc
than twice as much—and only one tenth the
length. ‘ '
It is an old saying, “ we should speak well
of‘a bridge that carries us safe over." This
bridge has stood and been safe for two years,
and will carry ten tons safely over. The draw
is bad, but could be made to answer well for
$100, judiciously laid out. No draw has ever
gone throughwiththc hard knocks this has.
It has had the weights taken off, and been
left to run with its whole force, thinking it
would break and go into the river. But it
has stood all the fsb'ocks and curses, though
in a broken state. The broken tcnnon was
made so by a sloop running into it. The
plates have been broken by letting it go by
the run. No draw cvcr stood the usage this
has had and yet remain passable. One word
in reference to the Building Committee. Are
they worthy of censure ? Who but they
would have completed such a structure, even
in its rough state, and so entirely void of sel-
fishness, as to advance the money on their
own responsibility to do it ‘8
“ A wheel toilhz'n a wheel." Have not two of
that Ccnsuring Committee ever owed mortal
hatred to the Senior Building Committee ‘3—
Do they not hate him the same as they do
“ Honest Old Abe,” and all other honest pol-
iticians ‘3 , Look .at this whole matter. The
concoctor of this censoring report is a young
man. He came from the Northeast corner of
this good State, and near that notable place
called Frog Pond, where the bull frogs, on a
notable night, got into a terrible fight, and
awake the good people in the dead of that
night from their slumber. The people as.
sembled, took counsel, the sound appeared to
come from above—a call for two famous law-
yers—“ Col. Dyer! Col. Dyer! Col. Dyer 2——
Eldcrkin tool Elderkin tool Elderkin too 1"
those days, we think he Would have been
called also. .

SUNDAY Senoor. CONCERT AT Wasrron'l‘.
—The concert of the children connected with
the Methodist Episcopal church in Westport,
last Wednesday evening was a decided suc-
cess. It was the first attempt of an exhibi-
tion of that kind in the school. The exercises,
consisting of speaking, dialogues and singing,
occupied about two hours,and were listened to
with much apparent interest by the parents
of the children and citizens generally, who
filled the church to overflowing. The chil-
dren acquitted themselves credit-ably, and re—
flected much credit upon themselves for their
quiet demeanor during the‘ exercises, as well
as upon their teachers and the golfers up of the
entertainment. C.

A Murdered Methodist Clergymen
Texas.
The Albany Journal has the following in
regard to one of‘ the men recently murdered
in Texas :
“The Rev. Mr. Bewley, who was hung in
Texas a few days since on suspicion of Abo-
lltlonism, will be remembered by many who
attended the General Conference at Buffalo
last May. He. represented the Arkansas
Conference, and was recognized as a peace-
ful, humble and devoted evangelist—~—
llis viewa of Slavery were of the mildest
character, and he would be deemed the last
man to thrust his views offensively—mild
in
any community. On his removal to Texas
a few months since, he carried with him tes-
timonials of‘his humility and devotiou to his
work. But he was a Methodist! That, in
Texas, is deemed the equivalent of Abolition
ism; and the devoted minister of' Christ,
guilty of no crime, and on the mercst suspic-
tllut be cherished offensive opinions, was
hung up like a murderer l”
And yet how many rncn throughout the
country belonging to the Methodist, as wall
as other Christian denominations, are by their
votes aiding and abetting the party which
makes the extension of a ayatcm, which en-
genders and leads to such horrible out-
rages, tbe very teal prim-hale of he organize» .
tion and fellowship Z" If such bal'barilics as
this are consequent upon, or necessary con-
comitants of, a system of slavery, shall we
pollute our virgin territories with its cruel-
ties and crimes? Is it. not time for Christian
.men to pause undcousider whether the obli-
gations of party and party names are to be
alronger'upon them, than the prompting-s of
humanity and the cause of justice and more y ?
