" The Xrepressimie coudmes."
- The Ne'7i Hr erald, or Tuesday,
comes to us filled with .extaets. from
Northern papers and accounts of public
meetings, all breathing the warmest sym.
patky for old Ossawatomie Brown, md
the bitterest hatred of the South.
One of these meetin's-at Tremont
Temple, Boston-is reported as having
been large and enthusiastic. Mr. John
A. Andrew, who presided, thought it pro
per that the audience "should first unite
in a -solenm act of religious .worship,"
and to that end invited them -to join m'it
prayer with the Rev. Dr. Neale. That
reverwnd gentleman, after thanking his
Heavebhly Father for many' things, and
praying for guidance and counsel, con
tinued
We pray especially for him who has so
extensively excited tho public sympathy
and-approbation. We render thakns to
thee for-the.noble spirit of generosity and
df fidelity and of bravery which he has
manifested, and- his deep sympathy with
the opprese'd. . - We tharik thee that he. is
sustained inthe piesenit rfing hour by a
conscioushiesei of having aeted in accord
anec with hir, sense of obligation to God;
and we pray that he.may be sustained to
the last May he enjoy the light of thy
presence and thy sustaining power, and.a
hope full-of immor lily, looking forward
toga world ewhs!-risosi, no suf
The Chairmaji ,f thameeting, Mr/
John A. Andrew, explained its object. [a
the course of his remarks, he said:
John Brown and his companions in the
conflict at Harper's Ferry, those who fell
there and those who are to sufbr upon
the seatffold, are victims of martyrs to an
idea. There is an irrepressible conflict
(great applause)-between freedom and
slavery, as old and as immortal as the ir.
represbible cobflict between right and
wrong. They are among the martyrs of
that conflict.. I pause not now to consider,
because it is wholly r'itside of the duty
-or the thought of this '- - v to.night,
whether the enterprize ot John Brown
and his associates in Virginia was wise or
foolish, right or wrong, I only know that
whether the entr p itself was the one
or the other, John'Browit himself is riqht.
(Applause.) I sympathize with the man,
I sympatize with the idea, because I sym- -
pathize with and believe in the eternal
right.
The Rev. J. 31. MANNINo spoke of the
act of John Brown as "fool hardy and
suicidal."
I could not have advised him to it, and
yet, now that the event has taken place, I
stand before it wonderiny and admiriny -
a> lause -rnembering that 4 i l some

As I view it, he i - -
in the halls of the great modern B~elshaz

those mysterious and appalling words, at
which the monarch trembles and turns
pale on his throne. While we are here,
this ~evening, knowing that our wives-if
not present-and our little ones -sleep
safely in our homes, there are mothers in
the Soutlidru States, whom thme Providence
of God has made thme wives of slhwehold

sin of slavery-I wish to lieve that

of it; they say that.-Providence forced

weapoiis under their pillows, knmowinig
that their streets are patrolled by an
armed police. This isi the conotion of
the Southerni -States; verily the tyrant,
trembles and turns pale in the midst of
his revels. (A pplause.)
The same geintleman, speamking of' the
robability that the sentence of John
rown will be executed, adds:
.And if he does, and if that event should
be observed next year,- when it comnea
round, and so on from year to year, and
f half a century Aence our children ehould,
be rid of this ,qrcat ncaonal curse of sae
ry, no one teill refer, ceccept toithi pride and
exulation, to the battle of Harper's Ferry.
(Applause.) And then will come forth
some Daniel Webster, then at a safe dis
tance from the eve~nt, (laughter and cheers)
who will say that from the time wvhmen
John Brown i.vn-nmg between the heavens
and the earth-toe may date the beginningi
of the end of American slavery. *
* * Th~e jo~urnals in the interest of the
slave power ascribe it to a few Northern
fanatis, who have roused up the baser
passions of men, and they say that we
are responsible for the bloody acts of
John Brown and his associates. But we
ay not. rThe slave power itself; stand
ing up there in all its deformity and wick
edness in the sight of Northern consciences
-hat is the cause (applause,) and there
the responsibility belonmgs. WVhy, the
wise man Solomon, whlat does he say of
oppression~ l Ie says that it "rmakes a
wse man mad." It maukes a righteous nman
mad, and it -iill make others like John
Brown until it is taken "ut of the way.
It stands there a continual provocative.
We cannot resist such temnptations while
e hav'e thc instinct of conscLincCewithin
us. W shall become m~en of distinction,
like John Brown of Ossawottomie, and
Prov~idnc~e will use us to write othier in
scriptionls in the presence of this tyrant.
Mr. Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great
New Englaind Philosopher, who imitates
Carlysle, said : .
It is easy to see whata-favorite he will
Ibe with history, which plays mad pranks
with temporary reputations. Nothing
can resist the sympathy which all elevated
