versal suffrage or universal freedom. They
could not mean to guarantee to others a sys-

which they set up for themselves.
These remarks show the absurdity Of at
tempting to stretch the words Of the Consti-
tuition SO wide that they may cover whole
contlnents-The parchment cracks in the ex-
pertinent, and the unlucky philosopher finds
himself let down into a bog of innumerable
dlihculiies. In trying to make out our faith
ers Abolitionists, he only succeeds at the cost
OF proving them fools. Let not Mr.. Good

mitted his principles of Interpretation. If

We are constrained to express our appre-
hension that perhaps, in consequence of a
measure Of imprudence on the part of some
who have been advocating the abolition of
Slavery, you are in much danger Of falling
into the temptation of espousing the cause
Of Shareholders.
We observe with regret, that your repro
baton of the alleged errors of the abolition
ISIS is much stronger than your condemna-
ton of those who are seeking TO perpetuate
the accursed system Of American slavery.

blame of the continuance of the acknowl-

we, VINO live at a distance, find it very diff
cult TO believe that, not the stakeholder, but
those who aiming at the extinction of the
system, are to be blamed for the continuance
OF It's unmitigated severity. We greatly
aprfehend that your defense of slavery, or
seryiiude, in the abstract, accompanied with
your feeble apprehension of its admitted enor-
mites, is much more likely TO retard its abo-
lItion, or mitigation, than any amount of vi
oience or imprudence on the part of those
who seek its removal.

Abolition OF Capital Punishment.


you will allow me in behalf of that large class
Of your readers, who are in favor OF the abolition
of capital punishment to correct an error in your
article on this subject, you will much oblige us,
besides doing an act Of justice. In common
with many others, you seem to suppose that
the main object of abolishing capital punishment
is to benefit the murderer This is entirely mis-
take. We ask for the abolition of capital punish
ment for these two reasons First, under the pre-
sent law the most undoubted cases of guilt escape
conviction and punishment, and always will, so
long as the present law exists Second, society is
not protected under the present law, as 1t would
be under the law OF imprisonment. In short, we
ask for the abolition of the death penalty, that the
murderer may be punished and that society may
be projected. This is our position. We have no
sympathy moro than others, for the murderer.
and Wa care not whether imprisonment would be
more or less severe or cruel than DEATH Argue

the clerks in the post Office right TO take the pa
