THE BL.acK HsaRRfoR CASE.

in the midst OF all that rage and indignation
into which our countrymen few our country
nen that have (we are sorry to say the incest
sense of the morals that must be practiced
sowards ourselves. and very small sense
of the morals which we are to observe towards
others we raised our voice to warn the
public against the folly of coming to any
strong conclusion, upon mere &c parte testi-
mony. With little hope Of being listened to, ex-
cept BY the few; with the absurd belief that we
should incur unpopularity amongst the many,
we yet none the less held our course of what we
knew to be public duty, and insisted that not
only was it ever rash and even criminal to rush
into war, without waiting to examine into its
grounds, but that even the one-sided testimony
which alone we had, came from interested par
ties, involved many suspicious circumstances,
and was at best, such as could justify no resort
to sudden hostilities nor even threats on our
part. For not the mere comfy of nations re-
squires you to proceed mildly on case where
you have only heard one party, but you wickedly
violate every principle Of both Justice and sense,
when you choose not to wait for evidence, but
shoot Or hang men unheard and try them after
wards.
