HALL. .4uthor of Something for Everybody"
s'yNew Purchase" SC. rot limo. Toe
This work, while it advocates the cause OF the
African; would do justice to the South. 1t would
awaken sympathy but not excite acrath, nor turn
pity for the Negro into vengeance against the
White, not inculcate treason under pretence OF
love and freedom 1t would have love to do the
work of hate 1t will be marked with the char
acteristics of the author so well known to the pub
lie by his previous works, of whom it was said In
the publication of''The New Purchase" that HE
was the master of many styles and had stepped to
the highest round of the ladder at once" The
work is no defence of slavery but it would be
balance ,cIeel, not to stop, but TO concentrate, e.
qual3e, and direct other motions 1t treats the u-
traisfa of the North to the Lea tatOnis. The
writer witnessed much that he describes, and real
persons are introduced under new names, so that
the work, while possesses the interest OF fiction, is
not only true to life, but in many of its scenes and
characters IS true in fact,
