"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison and his family will visit Brooklyn, Conn., for a few weeks. Oliver Johnson is now the \"sub-editor of the Liberator.\" The anti-slavery cause in Massachusetts thrives. Garrison and the abolitionists are agitating to prevent the annexation of Texas. The Liberator has three thousand subscribers. Amos Augustus Phelps is expected in Boston; he is now the general agent. John Greenleaf Whittier has gone to New York to relieve Henry Brewster Stanton, who is to work in Massachusetts. Stanton is the Napoleon of the cause. Garrison lists the names of the abolitionists who were received by President John Quincy Adams. There was a riot in Boston recently. The anti-Irish sentiment is almost as strong as the prejudice against blacks."
