The Abolitionist Conclave in Boston. CONFUSION STILL TRIUMPHANT—A TIN HORN SERR- NADE—THE POLICE IN THE PARTY—CUE GRAND FINALE. (From the Boston Times, May 81.) THIRD Dar, As soon as the Convention was called toorder by Bu- munp Quincr, one of the Vice-Presidents, and before y business had been brought properly before them, Mr. C. L. Hosmea commenced speaking in relation to the ill-treatment of Abby Folsom by the Convention. Cries of order from the chair, hisser'and stamping. in the galleries, accompanied by exclamations of * goit,”” “ stick up for Abby,” * sit down,” * ton yous gas,” &e. &o., followed for some minutes, when Mr. Hosmer ap- Pealed to the house, and the en reaulted in the chair being sustained in calling the speaker to order. Mr. Hormer then sat down, and the secretary proceeded to read the “twelve resolutions.”’ Rey. Jonn L. Russect, of Hingham, took the ros- trum, and stated that he did not claim to be classed with the abolitionists, He confined his remarks chiefly to the religion of the present day, saying that it was a false Christian religion. He closed by urging the con- vention to develop that true church which isa true ides of true Christianity. Ronert Epmanp, @ Scotchman, who on one occasion was tarred and feathered in South Carolina, for at- Payitey to teach slaves to read, was the next speaker. In alluding to the resolution which says, “ The Ame- rican citizen, who is the owner of slaves, is the most despicable of all men,” he remarked, he would c! the phraseology a little, and say, ‘The Scotchman who would own slaves, is the most despisable being under God's Heaven.” He argued that slavery was asin, and contrary to the spirit of our Christian institutions. He alluded to the treatment he had received at the South, and complained because he had received no re- dress from South Carolina, or from the general gov- ernment. He had demanded justice from the govern- ment, but no one seemed to manifest any disposition to aid him in obtaining justice, He said he was about returning to Burope—he wanted money to go with— he hadn't got it—but the people were bound to send him across the water somehow, He should go with his bands tree from the blood of the slave. Wittiam Liorp Garnison, from the business commit- tee, offered three additional resolutions, of the same ae mature as many of those previously offei Cuances List, Bsq., of Boston, took the floor, confi- ning his remarks to the chureh, and alleging that it is the great instrument of human bondage in its most infamous form.

There was a big fight in the centre of the hall—the policemen rushed at the people with their clubs—they battered the rioters over tho head, and took out eight of the most ferocious, and sent them home. The scene was graphic in the extreme, and difoult to report. Mr. Quincy mounted im the rostrum, and, in the midst of cheers for Judas, Webster, Old Zack, and Christianity, and groans for the anti-slaveryites, he attempted to lang the Garrison resolutions, and an- uounced that they were wnanimously passed, and that the convention was digolved.

THE PIZARRO AND THE CREOLE—ACTION OF THE WU 8. SCHOONER PETREL. (From the Baltimore Sun, May 31.) We have been favored with the perusal of a letter from an officer on board the surveying schooner Petrel, at Key West, dated May 22d, giving the particulars of the entrance of the Creole and Pizarro into that port, and the communication that took place between the Pizarro and the Petrel, which has been aliuded to in counts we have already published. From this it pears that Lieut, Rodgers, of the Petrel, did furnish Pizarro with a pilot, as requ d, but he left the steamer in t, and, on returning, stated that n he told them to steer north. west they steered north-east, and thata file of soldiers was stati deck to shoot him, in case shoal. Under such circumstances, he thought it best to leave, giving as am excuse that he would return on board the schooner, and that the Pizarro could follow her through the channel. The Petre! then started through the channel, but observing that the steamer did not follow, Lieut. Rodgers p Bonne! his boat and proceeded on board the Pisarro, volunteeri: his services to pilot them in, which the co much to his surprise, deelined, and told him that he should report him to our govern- ment, for preventing him from taking ® pirate, and name, whereupon Lieut.

He told me the most scandalous things contcrasng the matter; and he dared not let his case come to a trial, for he knew that I would say on the witnosss’ stand what he bad told me, and what, if it is false, he should have his foul tongue cut out for saying. And shall he, after buitying the prosecution with his threats of an hundred witnesses—efter putting the county to a heavy expense by seven diflerent postponements, be al- lowed to mock justice, and go unwhipped of the penal- ties of his crime? He should be sentenced, though wo den’t want him here, on Elba, There isn't a thief ora pauper here who would not scorn to condescend to an Sssociation with such an unmanly wretch.
