Mr. Stewart's Visit At Marshall: For The Signal Of Liberty

Messis. Editors: - By a vote of the Convention recently held in tlïis" place, I sem you some account of Mr. Stuart's laborshere, n the cause cf human riglils. Mr. S. orrivec on Salurday evening, July 9lh, and the ncxt evening, by invilaüon of.Rev. Mr. Cleaveland, delivered a lccture at the Court House, nnd again on Monday evening. Wedneíday P. M., L o'c'ock, 13th inst., the Conven! ion met, and Mr. S. delivered four addresses before the" finr.l adjournnient, wliich took piare on Thursdry, P. M., 14th ii?sr., at 4 o'clock. Ërasius Hnssey, Esq., of Battle Creek, was President of the conventicn,and íhe Rev. Elias Child, Asa W. Buslinell, and B. Brown, Bccretaries. There was a business committoe of seven. The convention was all we could ask for, as lo mimbers or respectnbility. Union City eent up a noble delegation of THIRTY. moetlymcn. Is that canse "dead and dying," which could cali out, in the very busiest season of the ycar, despile dust and heat nnd hurry,such a body of sineiv and muscle, to travel betweün twenty and thirty miles? Teil that dying etory to "the Marines," not to 3ronch County, or Callioun. Leroy did nlmost as wel!. No one said anything but Mr. Stuart. Rev. Mr. C. and Jone or two others, were called out, but tliey could not be prevailed on to ppeak, lesl they should weaken the impressicn made by Mr. Stewart. To say that he was eloquent, sarcaflic, keen, versatile, argumentative, profound, is only saying what every one woulá expecr, who has often heard him. The subjects which he discussed were as follows:- the course pureued by alarge part of t!iQ Christian llinistry and Christian Church, and American Congrees towards the crushed slave: the eolemn obligfations of Christiuns and Freemen TO VOTE righl ; the immense rnoral and political power of the box; the war relations and the war rights of the elave, growing out of the depredations of the niaster upon his natural rights; the ontrageous injustice of the net of Congress of 1793. touching fugitive 8laves, and the guilt of the free States in suffering that law to remain; Üie history of the ' Proleeiice policy" of tne United States, and a vast variety of other topics. The abominable compromise act cf '33, was reviewed and revealed in all its iniquity, and the fact that whitet it was papsed under threals of dissolvingthe unión by the South, it has robbed the North of hundreds of million?, was made as clear as dcmonstration strong. The foul part which Henry Clay enactcdin this matter, was ehowed up in most unenvinble colors. In shorí, I raay say the two leading topics of the lecturcs, were, first, that NOTHING can save this nation frora ruin, if the products cf the f"ee States are not generally and permanently prolected; secondly, ihe mad determination of slavery to withhold that protection, and reduce the free labor of the North and Westto a level with the pauper labor of the oíd world, so that slavery may thus escape that withering rebuke which ovr prospcrity always admini&ters to thcir poverty. On no subject did Mr. S. so evince his learning and power than on these two. On none, did hc more deeply enlist the sympathies ol" his auditors. The yeomanry lonked solerun, satisfied, resolved. You will hear from them at the ballot box. Mr. S. also drew a most pathetic picture of the perils and prowess of the the fugilive on his way "from flnppiness to Canada." (You know where both these places are.) A series of resolutions. embodying the great moral and politica] principies so ably advocated by Mr. S., was adopted unanimously by the convention. A string of questions drawn up by A. Pratt, Esq. of this place, and signed by him and some fifteen or tvventy more, was handed to Mr. S., and answered, not slowly, I as6ure you. As a lilerary extriosity I will send you a copy, if I can obtain one. Mr. S. remained over the ensuing Sabbalh, and by invitation of Mr. CM delivered his seventh lecture Sabbath evening at tho Court House, on the connexions of sla - very and intemperance - one of his noblest efibrts. Mr. S. and lady left on Monday morning for Fort Defiance, followed by the bearty thanks and fervent prayers of MAN Y, and the croaking malediclions of the tyrant Party. Dont you think that both the Marshall papers have appeared this week without he fainteöt allusion to Mr. Stewart's vieit ! !What eolenm snperlatjve dignitv "TapenngP.
