Mr. Editor—Vou stale, in yesterday's paper,
that Edward Everett, Governor of Massachu
setts, is “an avowed abolitionist,"
I have long watched the public course of that
gentleman, and never heard this charge before.
.Alexander 11. Everett, a good Vermont bucklail,
is understood lo he an abolitionist, hut as to Ed
vard Everett, I will thank you to retract the
charge, or prove it. BOSTON.
Our correspondent, Do-ton, asks us either to
retract or prove iho assertion that Mr. Edward
Everett, Governor elect of Massachusetts, is
an“ avowed abolitionist.” We were induced lo
| make the remark from an article which tve saw
in lire Boston A las a low days since. In that
paper, the editor of which is an abolitionist, is
published a letter from Gov. Everett, in re
ply to some interrogatories on lire subject of
lire annexation of Texas lotho United Stales, from
a hasty perusal of which, wo were induced to he-
I live that the writer held doctrines such as would
qualify us in calling hint an Abolitionist. We
j hav.- not the paper hy us at present, hut if on a
j second perusal our impressions are varied, we
will most cheerful y retract the assertion.

Which once so fair did shine.
Wresting forever from my sight,

And square and wheeling line.
Upon the battle bed,

Gazing upon iho Eagle red.
Whoso shadowy wings above my spread,
It was my prayer to die.
Not thus unwept—nlonc

Where the hot breeze hath a tone
While passing, like the fevei’d groan.
