A Unitarian minister at Harvard, Mass., was greatly cut up by reason thereof, and suddenly saw what before he did not suspect.

"I had supposed you," he wrote in his new estate, "a very pious person, and that a large proportion of the Abolitionists were religious persons....

I have thought of you as another Wilberforce--but would Wilberforce have spoken thus of the day on which the Son of God rose from the dead ?" Garrison's query in reply--"Would Wilberforce have denied the identity of Christ with the Father ?"--was a palpable hit.

But as he himself justly remarked, "Such questions are not arguments, but fallacies unworthy of a liberal mind." Nevertheless, so long as men are attached to the leading strings of sentiment rather than to those of reason, such questions will possess tremendous destructive force, as Mr.Garrison, in his own case, presently perceived.

He understood the importance of not arousing against him "denominational feelings or peculiarities," and so had steered the _Liberator_ clear of the rocks of sectarianism.
