Last evening, 8 Jargely attended meeting was held at Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, for the purpose of hearing & lecture from Mr. Scoble, Secretary of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society. The meeting was opened by the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, with an appropriate prayer and an address, in which he Introduced the speaker of the evening. Mr. Scop.x commenced his remarks, by observing, where the spirit of the Lord was, there was liberty. Where the gospel flourished in ite benign principles, slavery, in none of its forms, could exist. He hoped he would not trespass on the courtesy that they bad afforded him, or offend any by the remarks be was about to make. Ie had been introduced as the Secretary of the British and Foreign Anti- Blavery Society, but he did not appear them in an Official or representative character. He had come to there shores for the purposes of health and recrea- tion, but he had endeavored to connect with his voyage those objets which so deeply interested him. He wished his hearers to understand that he was merely delivering his own personal opinions, and for the purpose of pre- | septipg a facts for their attentive consideration. He | then alluded to the visit of bis eloquent coun Mr George Thompson. who. he said, had not ‘appeares smongst (hem as the agent or exponent of the general views of the English with respect to the subject of ala- very.
