Monii.lt, Am., A liquet 12, 1806. My Pear Ilrotnor:
The cessation of the war eaves moat libert" u
renew my cnrrrspoBaence wit.i yon, vtthout aulijaot
ing you to suspicion aud annoyance: and 1 need nut
ht to you how gratelul to tn yearnings of my heart
1b thu long-suspended privilege. Vou hare boon
frequently in my thought durum our unfortnnato
struggle, end 1 Have ulieu le t muca sotioitude on
your account, lest a part ot the odium ami ill-will
which a zealous performance of my au v ha called
down upon my Head lioiui'rotil nation" nlioul I
attach to you and your family, and operato to yjur
injury.
Indeed, I have no doubt tint that the prejtid ce
again mo was tne wen t ot trie barbarous and in
lignaut persecution of our son, ot which I hoard
only a few days sinoe from my wife' lrluud unl
relation, Mis Judge Spencer, of Cincinnati. 1 have
ever inquired as to yonr oplnious and conduct
' dorinii the war, Doing content to leave yon too same
libeity ot choice and action that 1 eiairned tor my
sell. I knew V at whateor you did vou would do
like a man ot honor, and 1 rested satisfied. Besides,
you had been for some time retirod from aotive life
by your want of health.
As tor myself, 1 have nothing to mgrot, save only
the loss oi our Independence. My conscience which
is the only earthly tribunal of which a (food man
should be afraid, bears inw witness of the uptlght
ness ol my intention in choosing my course when,
with many regrets, I severed my connoo ion with the
old Government aud baloncd to the dofuuso of my
borne ami scct.on; and now, upou reviowinf tho
whole ot mr substqucut career, I vau ce no not with
which 1 have to reproach inysolf at unbecoming a
man ot honor and a gentleman.
1 approved the soeoi' n muvomont of tho South
ern Sia.es. tnougU 1 uad no a?eucy in it. t Ciou -lit
that a separation of tnoso two section ot our Ro
ubitc, winch hail been engaged in a deadly moral
coi.ll.ct for tinny yturs, would ultimately risuh to
tre great ndvsntage ot them both, the world wa
wide cuouuh tor them to livo apart, and peace, I
tl.oiii.lit. wood bo the truit of their uiuuul inde
pendence ol each other. Although I cared vixy
little about the instil ulieu of Hlavory, ( thought that
tho suboruinuiu position ol tho lulorior race was its
proper position.
I bolieven Unit tlio doctrine of Htato riehtn was tho
only doctrine which won (1 s .ve our kupublio from
the late ot all other republics that bad oue before
us in the history of tho world. 1 belioyml that this
doctriuo had been violated, and that it would unver
be sullieicntly respected by the controlling masses of
the Portlier. i section to prevont them Horn dolucing
with sacrilegious bunds our national oond ot uuiou
wheresoever its letter was meant to guard tho pecu
liar rights of the outli. lclivliiif this, there tvai
but ouo course wh eh n laltliliil Sou hem P'un
could puisue. and maintain his suil-respcct. I pur
sued that course. When the alternative was pre
sented to mo ol ndheriug to the a .cgiance due to my
State or to tho United Status, 1 choso the former.
Having taken inv sloe, 1 care It zculous and
earne-t support. 1 fpont four years in active ser
vice, and only ceased ;o iahur for my cause when u
was no longer ponsi'le. I rcudeiod this service
without ever bav ng treated a prisoucr other vise
than huuiaiielv, mm I may say often kiuolv; au l
without ever having coinmuiO'l uu act of ar at
any timu, or in any in.ii.nur, which was not satio

bably go down to posterity in the untruthful histo
ries that, will bo wiiiten bv Licoied nud vouul
bislonaiifl as a sort of 1 tio I'.ear t or (Japtatu ftiitd.
But J nut content, my brother, lly ton-cienco is
char; my soll-rci-pcci lias beeu preserved; anil my
sense ot muniiooil remains unimpaired i thin,
too tho South wtM bo ovituut, not-uiiismiiiling her
ininiouso losses aud sucrilieos. li she had yielded to
the intolerant exuetiong of Nortricru se nshuess and
fanaticism without appealing to the urbi'Mm.'Ui oi
war, she would have played a craven and uu wort ay
part, it is he tor to lose evei yth iig than our honor
and nianliotid I know you wi l believe me, my
brother, when 1 tell vou that I should tcel creatty
bumbled in my own opinion were 1 this day
entitled to wear an ntiniiral's flag in the old
imvy, and in pos-cssion ot n:l i no means and
ai pliancts of weulth. u 1 thought my honors aud re
wards had been gained by a suciillce of creed The
pre.-ervatiou ot my own so l-rrnpect is iuliuiioly pra
terablo to all Fueh gams. Iilmvc coino out ot tho war
poor, but. (Jod willing, Is!iu!l m-ike a support tor my
lamily. The l'residcut treats me as an outlaw, un
worthy of amnesty. I have nothing to say. If 1 am
deemed unworthy to be a citizen, 1 can icmain in my
native land as un alien. A magnanimous prop e
would have passed mi net of general nmn.isty, it
being aasmd and ridiculous to talk about Uubols
aud tinitors in connection with such a rovo.u
tion as bus swept over the lengtli and breadth
of this laid, in which Slates, and not individuals
merely, wcro the aciois. But enough of thi subject.
Iam still in Mobil", but it is vet uncertain whore I
shall go, or what 1 .h1iu.1i do If I save S5U00 or $t;900
out of the wreck of inv ad'ulrs, it will bo i'ui yus
much as 1 expect. I tli nn of retiring into ihu conn

Remember nio kindly to your family, my doar

William Lloyd Garrison's Farewell.
On the 2Ji of December, Mr. William Lloy 1
Gairison stopped the publication of The Libera
tor, retiring with a graceful valedictory address,
In which he sums up the results of forty yours
labor in the nnti-9lavery cause, lie says:
"Conmieucintr my editorial career when oaly
twenty years of see, 1 have followed it coutinn
ouslv tiil I have attained my sixtieth year ilrst,
In connection with The Free Press, in Newbury
port, in the sprinr of 182(i; next, with The Na
tional riiiLauthrovist, in Boston, in 187; next,
with The Journal of the Timrs.'m Bennington,
Vermont, in l&'J8-y; next, with The Genius of
Universal Emancipation, in Baltimore, in 182 )
30: and, finally, with '1 he Liberator, In Boston,
from thi 1st ot January, 1831, to the 1st of Janu
ary, 1806; at the i-tart, probably the youngest
member of the editorial fraternity in the laud,
now, perhaps, the oldest, not In years, but in
continuous service unless Mr. Bryant, ot The
Hew York Eteuinn Fosl, be an exception.
'Whether I shall attain be connected with the
press, in a riinilvtr capacity, is qutto problemati
cal; but, at my period of life, I feel no prompt
ing to sturt a new journal at my own risk, and
with the certainty' of strucrghnut against wind
and lide ns I have done in the past.
"Tho object lor which The Liberator
was commenced the extermination of chattel
fclavery having been piorlously consummated,
It Beeri.s to me sncciHlly appropriate to let its
existence cover the historic period of the great
etrugele, leaving what remains to be donn to
complete the work of emancipation, to other
instrumentalities (oi which I hope to avail
myselt), under new auspices, with more abun
dant means, and with millions insleai of hun
dreds lor allies,
"Most hnppy am 1 to be no lonser in conflict
with the Iliads' of mj fellow-countrymen on the
subject ol slavery. For no man of any reiine
ment or sensibility can be Indiiforent to the ap
probation of his felloA-men, if it be riehtly
earned. But to obtain it by coimr with the mul
titude to do evil by paaUerine to despot io
power or a corrupt public sentiment is self
deradatiou aud dishonor:
" 'For more true Joy Maicoilus exiled fi-els
Thau Catar with a senate at hit heels.'
"Better to be always in a minority of one with
God branded as inalman, incendiary, fanatic,
heretic, inudel frowned upon by 'the powers
that be,' and mobbed by the populace or eon
sinned lgiiomiuiojtly to the gallows, like him
whose 'toul is marcniur; on,' though his 'body
lies moulderintf in the rrave,' or burnt to ashes
at the stake like Wicklirt'e, or nailed to the cross
like Him who 'save Himself lor the world' in
defense ot the risht, than like Herod, havlne the
shouts of a multitude, crving, 'It is tho voice of
a Kod, and not of a man !'"
