These are the sentiments of a man ep.
tirely aloof from politics or political excite.
ment, who views the state of the country
as it really is, and would not sound the
note OF alarm unnecessarily; he has closely
watched the "ways of the hour" since 1881,
and marked the gradual and steady prog.
ress of the monster abolition, and all its
concomitant evils.
1t has C losely observed the controlling
influences Of the northern feeling, against
Southern Rights and Southern properly;
and admits this feeling has made such
alarming progress that something must be
done that has never yet been done to check
it. And if the North does not take
some step to e%Xtinguish this bitter maligui.
ty to southern institutions, the south will
be compelled TO consult secession as the on.

all of their acts, are positively committed
and deeply imbrued with ~free-soil doctrine.
These men by their prominence and infu-
ence, exercise a controlling influence upon
such men as Fcote, freeman, Clemens, &c.
in the SOUTH who. in conjunction with abo-
lition emissaries, ~free-soil editors, and Gov
eminent officers, endeavor to conceal the

rights of the States, as traitors, disunionists
and se~cessionlsts.
However, contemplate the Rev. Theo-
dore Parker may be in the eyes Of somep
his position and influence is fully calculat-
ed TO direct the minds of men infamed by
unholy Fanaticism-men who boldly set
at defiance the Law of the land, who have
no respect for the, moral social, or political
ties which bind them to their fellow-men,
and who would burst asunder the ties which
connect this Union, to carry out their false
idea Of philanthropy.
The rev Theodore Parker goes into this hea-
ted Canvass without the plea or excuse of ig-
n|orance, but with a knowledge of the kind re-
lations which exist between the master and
the slave; he has resided in the South, and even
here, in WoodUille-and while entrusted here
by one of our citizens with the charge OF his
| household, and with provisions, &c, for his
: support, he, contrary TO every principle OF hos
: pitaIity and frieodship, tempered with the alb
$ sent masters slaves, and endeavored to arouse
/, them to a spirit of neutrality-suspicious. to de-
stroy the very friend who had furnished him
| with bread.
J This is the man who lisa moving spirit in
Boston, and whom our friends of the wing sub
I mission party at The South are giving aid and
, comfort, by supporting his coadiutors and pat
rons at the North.
