offer no apology, Mr.. Lee, for the
frankness or severity of my remarks: for
il is no time.to be cripging or apologisiis
when my house is in blaze, over my
head, and he murderer's daggeris is pointed
al my heart. My only concern is, lest
thousands who are abolitionists should ap-
ply. TO themselves the. remarks which |
have intended in this letler, erclusireiy for
you and your purity. distinguish between
anii slavery men, and abotitioaiSts like
yourself for although tho former believe
slavery to be an evil, they would not be;
accessory to an injury to shareholders,
much less would they encourage by their
writings the massacre oflhe master for the
sake of the slave. This it appears 10 mo:
is not the case with you aud Others of your
stamp. forlhe whole Tenor Of your writings
is to bring about such a result. If, how
ever, the day should ever unfortunately
arrive when the aid of anti Slavery men
will be wanted TO quiet; Southern insur-
rec;ion, have no doubt from. what has
:akenpace in Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Alton, Boston, Utica aud other places that
the North, the East; and ,he West, would
pour in their tens of lhousands,-to the aid
of the South, under the deep conviction of
the truth ofthe sentiment expressed Ivy an
eminent Jurist-"ihat mans first duty is
