And as from the worse ihan Babel confusión which at present characterizes the position of the Whig and democratie pnrties there is peculiar encourageinont for the friends of Liberty, not only to organize, but to use extra exertions in the great cause of Universal freedom ócemancipation. .But especially. as all Europe is in a blaze with the great subject of universal Liberty how inperatively are we of the U. Slates, cnlled upon, to rid ourselves of the justreproach of longer conlinning the blaze of war, for the extensión of sla very? - not to say, continuing slavery itself, while almost all the Monarchinl governments of the world, are taking active measures to suppress and abolish the unrighteous, inconsistent, Anti-democratic institutions. Without intending to write a dissertation at present - with the views above expressed, I wish to throvv out a suggestion for discussion - whether it will not be advisable to tuke early measures for holding, some time in September or October next, a a Mass Convention of the Liberty Party for the State, at some central point, say at Battle Creek, Marshall, Albion or Jackson, Let us hear from yourself and some other friends upon the subject. C. G. P. S. If I can fiivd leisure, I will shortly tnke some further notice of t!.e Marshall Expounder, whose article you quoted in last number.
