500 $aChild sends the article for the Liberty Bell. "You and Caroline [Weston] will laugh at it heartily, and even little Anne [Warren Weston] will give it a patte de velours; but the young and romantic will like it." The contribution to the Liberty Bell referred to is probably the story "The Quadroons" in the volume for 1842, p.115-141. The writer is plagued by the Third Party. "James C. [Caleb] Jackson is coaxing all he can to stop the Standard... and Garrison is helping him with puffs innumerable." The writer declares that the Liberator lauds the Liberty Party, that Francis Jackson and Wendell Phillips "are flourished forth on the Liberty ticket" and that she expects to see Garrison put up for Governor and Edmund Quincy for Congress. "Am I to hold the Standard of moral influence all alone?" The Pennsylvania man is seeking a union with the Standard. The writer is shy of their plans. "Those Penn. abolitionists are everlasting betweenities." Postscript: "I rejoice that you approve my editing. I thought I was too cautious to please you; but... my caution plagues New Org. worse than anything."
