The emigration to Kanzas—The passage of the new
liquor bill—General Wilson's lecture—Report of
the Committee on Federal Relations on the removal of Judge Loring, etc;

BOSTON, March 20, 1855.

MR EDITOR:—A company of one hundred
men, women, and children, left last Tuesday
for Kanzas. It was composed of mechanics,
farmers, and professional men. This is the
[second] company this spring, and the emi
gration bids fair to be numerous during the
pleasant part of the season. There are men
there, now, who will fight slavery face to
face, and dispute every inch of the ground,
until they conquer.

Our Legislature has passed a new liquor
bill, which is much more stringent than the
former one. Drunkenness is very prevalent
here, and we want something to suppress it.
We think that our new bill will annihilate
the entire traffic.

On Friday evening, a lecture, forming the
fourteenth of the Anti- Slavery course, was
to have been delivered by Hon. Henry Wil
son. At the time appointed, he made his
appearance on the platform, and was enthu
siastically applauded. Among other things
he said, "if there is any one here who be
lieves that I am capable of modifying my
sentiment and opinions, cherished by me for
twenty years—either at home, or abroad—either in public or in private, before friends,
or in the face of enemies I commission him
now to proclaim it. Send it abroad on the
wings of the wind, that I am committed—fully committed—committed to the fullest
extent in favor of immediate and uncondi
tional abolition of slavery, wherever it exists

under the authority of the Constitution of
the United States." These remarks were
received with deafening applause. Mr W.
was continuing his lecture. when he was
suddenly seized with vertigo and staggered
to his seat. The event created much sym
pathetic feeling among the audience. Dr.
Howe, after a short retirement, returned and
stated that though Mr. Wilson was better,
his physician thought it would be safer that
he should not proceed with his lecture—Mr. Wilson was anxious to complete his discourse, which he will do at an early day.—He is now entirely recovered.

The pleasantest news of the week is the
report of the Committee on Federal Rela
tions, on the removal of Judge Loring. The
report is an able and elaborate document,
occupying nearly fifty pages, octavo. The
Committee say, in concluding their report,
that, "after having given the case of Judge
E. G. Loring a long faithful and impartial
examination, your Committee, in view of the
facts and considerations set forth in this
report, recommend that the accompanying
address be sent to the Governor, requesting
him, by and with the advice and consent of
the council, to remove Edward Greeley Lor
ing from the office of Judge of Probate for
the County of Suffolk."

Address to His Excellency, Henry G. Gard
ner, Governor of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts:

"The two branches of the Legislature, in
General Court assembled, respectfully re
quest that your Excellency would be pleased,
by and with the advice and consent of the
council, to remove Edward Greeley Lor
ing, from the office of Judge of Probate for
the County of Suffolk."

Your Committee further recommend, that
a Joint Special Committee, consisting of
four on the part of the Senate, and nine on
the part of the House, be appointed to pre
sent said address to His Excellency, Henry

The election of Hon. Henry Wilson to the
United States Senate, and the removal of
Judge Loring by the Know Nothings, will,
no doubt, have a tendency to throw a fire
brand into the party that aims to be neutral
upon the great question of Human Slavery.
No permanent political organization can be
started in Massachusetts, or in the United
States, unless it is anti-slavery, and favors
temperance and Protestantism. These are
the great issues, and they have swallowed
up all others.

Dr. J. S. Rock is to lecture on Thursday
(Fast Day) evening, at Music Hall. Sub
ject—"The Unity of the human race, and
the recent aggressions of the slave power."
The Middlesex Journal says "he is a hand
some speaker, and affords a striking refuta
tion of the paltry, but oft repeated argu
ment, that the African race is not suscep
tible of high, mental and scientific cultiva
tion." The Rhode Island Freeman says "he
is an uncommon good speaker" We hope
to be able to report our own opinions after
we have heard him. We advise our Bos
ton readers to go and hear him.

A debate took place in the House of Rep
resentatives on Thursday, on the question
of whether the Fugitive Slave Act should be
styled an act, a bill, or a law. It was de
cided to call it the Fugitive Slave Act
