MR. Editor--You are no doubt right
in supposing that William Henry BIig.

and the prime mover of those dark and
wicked abolition schemes, which Of late
have SO much disquieted the public mind,
w. ii. Brisbane commenced the publi.
cation of Baptis paper in Charleston in
the year 1883 or '34, was considered bv
the Baptist denomination as sound on the
subject OF slavery, a man of talents. and
well calculated to edit the denon,inational
pape' OF this State. His paper was cen.
orally patronized by the Rantists IN
South Caro!ina. However, il was NOT
long before his Abolition sentiments hss

turned over, l believe, to Or. Brautly, in
whose hands it died. Brisbane, after
selling some 80 slaves, made his est ana 10
the State Of Ohio. where he has been.
l suppose. plotting his fiendish designs
against the peace of his native State ever
since. / well remember MIR. BIS atten.

deliberate opinion is, that more infamous
scoundrei scarcely lives on the earth. :
