Mos, diseraceful is il TO the American name
that such cowardly and vile Suggestions snoa'u
come from an American citizen, and one, loo'
occupying post OF some influence w.t. portion
Of nj, fellow-countrymen The public senti-
ment of the world revols against such ferce
aeprayauon OF The horrors Of war-and even
England herself who, in our Revolutionary con-
Test, ayowcd her objec, 10 employ Indian tribes
against the Colonists, met with The whitening and
eloquent rehuke Of The great Burke for this gross
violation OF all Christian feeling and civilized
conduct. In the last struggle with Great Britain,
il was in secret, and with shame, that that power
melted the savage tribes against US. j dared mol
openly meet the indignant power oil The world, BY
an avowal Of so alrocious policy nor VIII II
do so now. Let, them the Evening Journal en-
ioy, if il can, the pleasure of having suggested
system al which The civilized world revolls in
horror. Let il, roll under lis tongue The sweet NOR
sci OF treason 10 its county, of the grosscst out
rage upon decency and common rroprleiy we
are sure that such infamous doctrines can carry
awav bur few, aud those are the all es oil British
.nd domestic fanatics The patriotic masses IN
this country, North and South, will rise up as one
man in resistance 10 such traitorous conhsels.-
The Sou,h will know what faith 10 put in such
vile politica! agitators.
We repeat that such alrocious sentiments arc
The echo Of but handful Of disappointed North
e,n politicians and baiiled abolitionisls. The
whole country Is finn, in heart and IN deter
mnation TO defend lis honor and lis rights, asains
both foreign and domestic assault. We have
thought il proper 10 hold up 10 the sbel OF popr
lar Reproduction the rare instances OF treason
which we find scattered over the North and West
The exposure OF these examples must have
good effect, in Frightening the bonds oil patriotism
and national union, and in pointing 10 The rlsln;
generation the road OF inlamy 10 be avoided an'
the path Of glory and honor to be steadily pur
sued. War We sincerely deprecate; but il J
should come il will have zone redeemins lea
ture"-it will produce the bitter conviction IN IN
minds of such men as the Editor OF the Aiban,
Journal, that The whole country will be united II
proslraling it's enemies, whether in the shape O
foreign aggressors or domestic traitors.
