and natural to the age
1hen there are issues and our business is tc
understand these iSsues--ther relation TO us, and
our duty in virtue Of such relation, TO ourselves
to our own interest. We should inquire whether
IT Is not attempted by attracting our attention n
the past, by binding us to obsolete and dead car
casSeS, to work our ruin in the present; or if il
he not so attempted, whether such will not be the
result Of present efforts.
Let Us then inquire This Conftdcracv is made
up of a number Of independent states, and these
states formed our present General Government
ana enacted our present constitution. In these
states, two distinct principles obtained as the basis
their political as also indeed their social relations
the principle of freedom and that of SLur1g
Now Wa have before stated and state again that
| these terms of freedom and Slaray, as defining
the condition of the southern states are but 9TH
er names for the strife that agitatcs the world ;
and might be more clearly stated as a strife be-
tween capital and h1jor; between indsfrg and idle
ness. An idea has been prevalent in the world
that some people are naturally better than others
that the business OF one part of the race is TO dig,
and toll, and dclve, and earn wcalth-that another
part may spend il in idlencSs and luNury-this
latter class spurning with contempt the former
iass,i as race of beings fit only to toll as
beasts of burthen and to be treated as such for
their benefit Out of this idea, has grown OBJ
preston which has in every age taken it, own
peculiar FORM but IS oppression still in all its forms
In Europe this principle rules the government
and the masses of the people are crushed by op-
prcSslve taxation to support nobility in idlcncss
who have not in justice the most remote claim for
such support. In this country, thi, idea takes
on various forms adapted to its localities but its
most prominent form is the slavery of the south
RccolIcct the slave Is not held in bondage because
he is biGck, but because he taborS nor is he cha
scd over our prairicS and plains of freedom, sim
ply because his color is different from ours but
h -,
presents certain amount of intelligent, human
labor. His labor Is required that they may get
wealth in idicncSS, which is conclusive on the
point we stated, viz: that this is war of idle
ness upon industry-of wealth upon labor, inyol-
wing III Its progress every man who labor>-
vldlng in ShOrt-this country into the same castles,
that prevail in the dcSpOtic countries of Europe.
But that we may not be ACCUSED Of forcing our
conclusions, or cNaggerating the results we quote
from men whose position justtips them in speak
ln@ for this slave prnciplc--and who NAV be sup
posed to represent 1t truly, as follows
