Mise between the Constitution and the "higher

mise between the Constitution and the higher
law"
The above, from the New York Herald Of
the 9th instant is an evidence Of that editors
unfair dealing with the North, in reference to
the Slavery question. II he is 50 ignorant Of
Southern customs as he manifests in the above
remarks, we will merely state, for his benefit
in future, that no man in a slave State-be he
ever 80 low in society-if he has the least claim
to decency, will aid in arresting runaway
slave. This is well understood by Southerners
and man would degrade himself in the eyes
of any Southern community, who would do so.
A low officer, or some degraded white man, is
always hired to do such duty.
The Mayor Of Syracuse offers to do as much
as any Southern gentleman would do, and it is
unreasonable in the Herald TO ask anything
more. How absurd to demand of the citizen
of free State to perform duty for q slave
owner, which the master himself would not
deign to do for his neighbor.
