SALLIE HOLLEY IN CONNECTICUT.

BROTHER DOUGLASS:—Miss Holley has given us several thrilling lectures. The mantle of her liberty-loving father has evidently fallen upon her. One "Lord's Day," P. M., she preached the Gospel to 60 or 70 in the Congregational House of Worship, when the deep snow caused many meeting houses to be closed. Her addresses were filled with the great fundamental truths of Freedom. She expressed them with the deep eloquence of the heart. She reaches the heart. She presents the common ground (mainly) on which all true anti-slavery souls may meet. Miss Putnam accompanies her, visits families, and distributes tracts. I am happy to notice that she plentifully scatters the appeal of the North Congregational Church of Hartford, to the American Tract Society. If we work to help the Abolition cause, we must give the hand of fellowship to all who hate Slavery—if we differ from them in our mode of expression and action.

Yours,
