l. The grand object of these fan,,;.
vowed to be ga DISSOLUTION on a.
This is emblazoned NM MI THe
banner. 1t is often and unblushinoIrp WV 'he,
by them. The vaIne of the Union j. aVOSed

purposes, they would not hesitate f ~ 'hst
asunder. What more detestable ohs...ea t it
this! But the arguments for its p,es ss, saa
are almost inwoven in every patriotic A, aa
can mind !; It is our security against ; "ueft
and external foes; under it the nation 'uu'efna

seek to break it up deserve to be lootsSaey
as guilty of treason to the great cause Of lIs
dom. '
And such are those who join with ,b.,..

their names to be associated with them =, m'
public meetings; and thus promote this d se
table work. But charge them with aim;sa'.
it, and they deem the charge libeous. W."
then do they countenance the men that "a y

of blood; it would array son against srbs,
brother against brother, in deadly strife, I.
is only when people are obliged to maintain
what is dearer than life, that such movs.
ment is justifiable. When we look upon On,
condition as d nation, and see progress md
plenty on every side-the rights of the na,jon
secured-it is hardly possible to look with
calmness upon the madness of such movs.

SOLUTION OF THE ORGANIZATION
CALLED CHRISTIAN CHURCHES
There is far too much method in this madness,
The men who are promoting this work under.
stand the nature Of the Christian bond of fel.
loWship and its importance in maintaing the
Union. To break 1t is preparatory step to
more important step, viz, dissolution Of our
national political organization. Hence Tho
pertinacity with which they pursue this obec.
4. Another object, auxiliary to dssoutiou
of the Union, seems to be, to weaken reVer
ence for the great founders of oar repubt,
and thus weaken the strength Of that Tie ar.
sing from common recolleetions. This is seen
in the courteous condemnation Of their l9bou
by some, and the fanatic denunciation by OH.
ers. May, for instance, thnks a great error
was committed by acceding to the compromi.
ses of the constitution. A Miss Hitchcock,
representing the fanatic portion, is more bold.
She denounces the trainers Of it as 'ttAc wora
Of tyrnnts," and declares that isaiah kiawF
aided them to found that instrnn-ot," This
tonJect seems to be more pertinaciously Dur.
sued of late than ever. When these coarse
detamers have concluded, there arise in The.
antl-slavery society meetings men who admire
their efforts, and thus back their sentiments
, These are such men as Bell, of Kentucky. The
associate Of c. Nj. Clay WASHINGTON,
FRANKLIN, MADISON and HAMILTON,
the worst of tyrants. inspired by Satan! Its
enough to make ones blood boil to read such
> words. AS We hear this course of remark,
courteous or enthusiastically termine Tho
glOrles OF such men mistakes, or roughly term.
ing them Satanic-it seems almost tha!a band
have been sent among us by foreign despOts
and are trying their hand at Shining over what
grateful freemen count patriotic and sublime.
Out upon such libels upon the age. Let men
who have felt disposed 10 do something, with
out considering precisely what they were DO
ing, to liberate the slave, pause when they see
this vile object. The only way is, to let tho
authors of such detestabIe sentiments--hs
men openly pursuing so wicked an object-Is'
main by themselves. There are no words We
can use sufficient to express proper conden
nation Of their conduct.
The whole end and aim of these fanatics
to dissoire tie Union and their plea is, that !
dissolution of the Union would knock the
Shac kles from the slave. Left to themseH''
their efforts would be poweiess. But it's
not so. A different class of men support theD'
give them influence. Such men, howeFs'
seem not 10 be aware of the tendency Of lbat
countenance. Charge them with being eDgs'
ged In dIssolving the Union, in Revolutionary
movements, in dividing churches or lbeIllog
the great men of the republic, and they Will
shrink from the charge with horror. But how
can they escape from it, if they continue 'heIf
associations
The time has come for all who love their
country to frown down this spirit. The Ian'
guage of the fanatics is becoming every day
more bold and insulting, and so fit for the Paf
poses of ''legitimacy," that it hardly seems
possible 1t can come from natives, or at le'''
from Americans. Such being the CASE 10
not the duty of those who may have joined
with them to certain extent, but who Pf0's"
to love the Union, to leave theml
