Mr. Eb:tor Kv^- institution <>t our m

on freedom of spe-ch, holds <m anniversary
here on the second week in May to rout- ki
pare notes, hear reports of committees, lay (
plans for future operations, diseti-s ways in
and tnenns nnd go into a tit le harmless ' sli
mutual admiration generally.
But which of the many anniversaries m
shnll 1 attend ? Where sliall I go to pick t,|
up the most interesting incidents tor your w
readers ? 1 am attracted most wiiere llieic j aj
is strife, agitation,commotion ; where there j tv
is eouihat between opinion, struggle of w
ideas against ideas,contention among intel- ' tv.
lectual giants. That place, pro eminent i ti<
overall others this time, is the amiiveisary j i|
meeting of the American Tract Society.? | ^
mi - . .
i iii-re a mighty question is tinder d sum
sioti?hIijiII the Society publish a tract j
against Slavery ??nud the cohorts of ei- j
ther host have mustered from nil parts of
tlie country to mingle in the combat. Fil- j
teen hundred clergymen and laymen tilled t
one of our commodious churches at 'J in i
the morning and Dr. Adams. Chairman of
the Publishing Committee, read a well ar j
gued and temperate report, selling forth J
the difficulties which had arisen line*pee- I
tedly during the year to prevent the pntdi j
cation of the nidi slaver* tract, and stated
thai the commi'tce had simply delayed its
issue to confer farther with the entire So
cietv. Then Rishop Mellvaiue of Ohio :
and Dr. Tyng of this city followed ; the _
one in enthusiastic support of the commit- ,
tee, and the other in an able and well considered
speech, also supporting the com \y
m it tec, but closing with a motion to in-| .
struct the committee to publish the tract ;
during the coming year or as soon as prae- t
livable. Dr. Tyng's motion was voted .
in
doiMi. Then came other similar proposi- j ^
tions and along with them a scene of con- j ,
fusion, noise nud disorder seldom witness- ! .
,n
ed tn a church. Cries of "question, "or- ^
der," "Mr. President," laughter, aiuilause I
and hisses resounded from time to time J
through the house, mid for m.snv minutes at 1 ,,
a time. I)r. De Witt, pastor of the elitifcli,
, nt
h id repeatedly to appeal to members to I ^
"presetVe the sanctity of this hou.se." 'J'ho ! |
occasion was certainly the rarest .specimen i ,.

of "church militant that ever canto under |

As an impartial observer I should say f
much of the confusion arose front the amiu- j |i(
ble inefficiency of the President of the a? q
sembly. In his" endeavor to bear all sides | _
and lespond to every call on '-.Mr. I'roi- j.

after he had assigned him the floor, and so
the andielice fell into confusion fmin sheer

from any special pronettcss to disorder > r 1"'
determination on the part of the members
to create confusion. After a conteit of six j *|;
hours the report was adopted and the con.- "r
mitteu sustained by re-election, which is ! I"1
taken to be mi indication that no tract z"
against slavery w ill be issued for some lime , 1,1
to come. ' 411
The next meeting wbere passion ran high 1
and the clash of arguinentive arms rever- ; ft,
Dt nil I'd to the echo, wis the (iwrrisonian |jy
Abolition and Disunion Sotinly. '1'here j ^
the flag of the Union was torn to tattci?, (;

Serfs, and all oar political parties, Demo- J
crnts, Americans and Republicans were con- j
signed to one common infamy as alike re. !
creant to freedom. Here also sharply defined
antagonisms jutted out prominently,
luckless opponents were mercilessly impaled
on the spears of warriors made akiliful
by the drill and practice of years in the
arena of debate, and who, despising carnal "'I
weapons, make all the more trenchant use r<"
of the sword of tho spirit ; and here too lil
the cheers of the faithful and hisses of Sl'
those who were "sound on the goose" evi?
ry where prevailed. " '
Our Hible, Missionary, Sunday Schools, ""
Temperance and other Societies held their lrt
anniversaries according to the usnals pro- n"
grumtne, and were troubled with no bicker* a"
ings nor bomb shells. There lias been a ,
slight falling off in lite general funds, but c"
thai, U is thouglit, w ill Ik: more than made
up this year by the recent uddttions every , I'
where made to the church. i

been money enough in the pockets of distillers
to buy impunity of the corporations l<
