BRA. MORNING REDITION----MONDAY, JULY 9, 1849. = ne Our New Engitand Correspondence. Anineton, Mass , July 4, 1849. Abolition Celebration of the Fourth of July—Pie Nic at Abington Grove—Speechesand Doings of the Abolition Brethren on the occasion. The abdlitionists of Mussachusetts, the ultra- abolitionists, headed by Garrison, and the leaders of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, held a pic nie in the beautiful grove near this place to- day, twenty miles south of Boston. The grove, which is a forest of white pines, isa little peninsula of five or six acres, almost entirely surrounded by a lake. Outside of the peninsula, the woods occupy some other cight or ten acres, more or less, all of which were appropriated by the pic nic. The skirts of the woods were filled up with an accumulation of horses and carriages of every description, collected from the neighborhood. The walks through the grove were lined with tables of refreshment, and, near the centre of it, fixed on each of the four arms of a curious wheel, forty feet high, was a seat for two persons, resting upon an axle, so that in the revolutions of the wheel, the riders retained their upright position. Two men kept the wheel in mo- tion by means of a crank, and t oe must have real- ized something handsome by the operation, for during the day, this rotary swing, with its seats for four couple, was in constant demand. A hundred yards further in the grove was the platform of the Anti-Slavery Society, in front of which seats were arranged for the ladies. The scene, barring the riding-wheel, resembied very much a camp-meet- ing, without the tents, but more what is called a burgoo in Kentucky, thut is, a barbecue, or tical meeting im the woods. Perhaps not y than five thousand people visited the scene during the duy, a large majority of whom were of the fair sex. ‘There were not more than fifty co- lored folks on the ground. Passing toward the form, the visiter walked under a triumphal urch, decorated with evergreens, and bearing the motto—* The world is our country, and all man-" kind our brethren,” which, to say the least, is a very comprehensive view of the subject. The stand was festooned with evergreen: and hung all round ‘with anti-slavery banners, emblems and paintings, most prominent among which represented a negro, with arms outstretched, castiag the fragments of his chains to the ground, and exelaim- ang “Lamfree!” Three or four runaway slaves were seated among the officials onthe stand. The national flag was excluded from the premises. At MU o'cicck, A M., Samvee May, general agent of ‘the society, called the meeting to order. A committee ‘mes appotuied, who reported the following officers of 5 President—E.dward Quiney, of Dedham, Vice Presidents—Francis Jackson, B. Spooner, and J. Hovey, y—Samuel May.

He expatiated upon the insufficiency of the tion of Independence and the constitution; and upon the necessity of a general, thorough extinction of slavery, without regard the false teachings of laws and éonstitutions as they exist. He referred to the letters of Henry Clay, and to the late speeches of Colonel Benton. as clearly indicat- {pg the extending sense of right in the publie mnind on eot of slavery and slavery extension, Mr. Onis inquired if Col. Benton or Henry Clay was entitled toany credit for their liberal views on this subject at this late day? Mr. Srerson Feplied, that they were not. ‘They were constrained to these views from the pressure of public Sentiment.

We must lay the axe a the root, Our doctrine must be, no union of any kind for apy purpose with the slaveholder, neither political nor religious—no compromises with ‘y. Inthe course of his remarks, the orator said that it the slaves should rise against their masters, he should not inter- fere: for he was not the slave of John ©. Calhoun, to do his bidding. It would be # question for the masters to ttle with the elaves themselves, and between them and a righteous God. Henny Box Brown (the slave who escaped from Rich: mond to Philadelphia in # box) was next brought fur- ward to tell of his escape, Brown is a stout, thick-set, hearty, good-looking Diack man, of about 30 years of age, and evidently inteiligent and shrewd. his history to the meeting. ‘Che immedi tion to his escape, was the sale of his wit and their removal further south, with the prospect of 8 being sent off in another direction He procured a nin Kichmond to pail him up ina box, and send him by express to Philadelphia, for which ho paid the man $86.

Tout now the Bestomans are particularly proud of their Cochituate, or Long Pond water, brought over the hills, some eighteen miles from Loog Pound, into the basin on the common, and distri- buted through the city. The pond from whieh the water is procured, covers a space equal t square mile, and drains a surface of about eigh square miles, which furnishes aa outlet of suffi- cient volume for the supply of the city, the lake itself being converted into the principal reservoir. ‘The works, we believe, ure completed, except ing the reservoir on the hill, near State House, and a corresponding reservoir in South boston, for reseryation in cases of breakage of pipes, dec.

The distance over which the water here ix carried, is less than one-half that of the Croton, and the general surface of the sovniy: is ten times more favorable for such a work than the hilly region through which the Croton iver 18 diveited to Manhattan island.

We can glean nothing of them, except that the course of the ad- ministration gives great satisfaction to the whigs Massachusetts, and a corresponding umbrage to the democracy. The whigs appear particularly pleased with ‘the course of Mr. Clayton, on the neutrality question (case of war steamer United States), and all parties appear to think that Old Zack will endorse the proviso, if Congress will in- sist upon thut alternative.

Our manufacturing village is the northern part of the town of Saybrook, on the west bank of the mouth of the Copnecticut river. It is ten miles from the mouth of the Connecticut river, with a daily communication with New York and Hartford, and intermediate towns, by steamboat. Here, and in Meriden, about thirty-five miles northwest of this place, are the only manufactories of ivory combs, and other articles of ivory, in the United | States. Here are also manufactories of augurs, gimiets, &c. Our landing is also used, by t woolen end iron manufacturers of Chester, a town | about three miles west of us.
