The New York Mirror, in an article OH
sbolitionists, having used the sentence eve
have yet to learn that an abolitionist is a
gentleman" received next day the follow
ing note:
10 the Editor Of the Evening Mirror:
DEAR SIR: The above paragraph cut
from your paper of yesterday. 1t is either
u sentiment believed by you or an unwar
ranted SANDER upon whole class of your
fellow citizens, induced by the sin, real or
faneied, of one. II the former, your sell
respect forbids my advertising 10 your pa
per. If then you prefer to let the remark
go unretracted, please make up the bill Of
1. S. Berry g. Co., to date, forward it for
payment, and discontinue the advertise
ment. Respectfully,
T. S. BERRY, 297 Broadway.
The Mirror replies rs follows:
AS the above communica ion is addressed
''to the editor of the Mirror" and no,
marked private, We take it f,r granted that
lie avowal of himself as an AboIi,io,ist. {"
Instead of retracting the expression qlotcd
from the Mirror, We urhesi,a,ingly rt-as
sert the fact that eve have yet to learn that
an Aboli'icnist can be a gentle man" We
VIII confess, however, tlat cur personal &C
quaintance with men of that description i,
Il
nate. We have not the honor Of knowing
DIR. Berry: but on i,a"i,y ut the ublicn-
tion office Of the Mirror, learn that he is AZ
agent for the sale Of Plane fcrieS, rrahufac
tured in Boston by Messrs. HaiIet, Davis &
Go.
In order to draw sharply the lire Of dis
tinction indicated by the r, mark ut which
Mr.. Berry feels his ''self respect i,tia ted.
1t is necessary to define the meaning of the
term "Abolitionist" ia term, in our uud. r
standing Of the word, OF blacklist repr, a.h
What, then, is it to be an '.Abolitionist ?"
Ills, III the first place, to he traitor TO the
Constitution, which recognises slavery. 1t
is to be vi0lai or Of the law enacted for the
reclamation of fugitives fo,m service. 1t
- to be an instigator to servi rebellion-a
stealer Of negroes-a dis,urber of the peace
"a prompter Ct tloods hed-a destroyer of
the Union of the States. Aboiitionism leads
directly to all these calan,ities aud there
Is no escape from the issue. Can the advo-
cate Of such cause be gentleman. We
think not. Still less can he be a Christian
And what are the habits and manners Of
the Aboli'ionists Read their Journals
listen to their speeches lock at their con-
claves, where FREQ. Douglas, Abby Kelly,
and Horace Greedy pour forth the foulest
ISLANDERS upon the brightest names of the
nation traducing alike the dead fathers of
the Republic and the living defenders Of
the Constitution. Are these libel'ers of
Washington, Webster, Clay-,hese re,ilers
of the government and cont, muers of law
worthy of the name of gentleman? We
doubt even if Mr.. Berry, agent of Boston
pianofortes, would be willing to class him>
self in such a category. If he still insists
upon claiming the name Of "Aboli,ionist,"
VT can only say to him Mt parting chacun a
son quot. Such ckbel ries are Lot exactl,
to our taste.
