mustlet us alone. Mr.. Mason's beautiful Bill for the
recapture Of fugitiyes must die in embryo. The
saveholdng gentlemen are not positive fools and
they can see for themselves how much better off
they will be, thus safely out Of the Union without a
Wllmot Proyiso, than in it with one How the re-
naming United States would be any worse otfno
