tame indeed to submit to charges not only Of
faithlessness and inconsistency in our political
course, but of encouraging abolitionism.
Such were substantially the allegations made
by the Sentinel whilst our professions Of State
rights doctrines were ridiculed, and the avowal
made that it was not because the arguments Of
the Organ had any strength" but because
they were Of mischeivous or dangerous ten
dency, that they were noticed by the Sentinel.
We thoughtwe saw in these assaults very
deliberate, as well MS most unjusti6able at
tempt to array Southern prejudice against the
american Organ" We gave our explana-
tons Of the opinions we entertain, and the
grounds thereof and Of the course we had
adopted in regard to Senator Wilson's election,
when the Sentinel came down upon us with
still greater violence, and yet greater injustice
than ut first.
We repealed the attacks in such language as
we thought warranted by the circumstances
attending the repeated efforts Of the Sentinel
TO create this prejudice. Whilst we deeply re-
greet such collisions, we must frankly say, that
we entered upon the advocacy Of American
doctrines" with no expectation that we could
escape them, and with no purpose to deviste
one hairs breadth from the path Of duty, to
avoid them.
We believe the cause we advocate is Just
one, and we shall endeavor to sustain it accord
ing to our poor ability, under any and all cir
cumstances.
It would be Ear more agreeable 70 us, and
