The exposition Of startling facts should arouse all
GOOD citizens of the United States, to new and con.
sn,rs,ed energies in putting down the demon Of ubo

while her enemies abroad through their New England

But upon this point prefer to republish, with the
hesrses, commenda.ion, the following bold and sound
view, of the y. Y. Day Book, Democratic journal,
for which we have evinesd our gratitude 30 often:
The deep interest that Great Britain has taken du
ring the last 20 years in the question Of African slave
s. in the United States-an interest which has induced
Hsy 10 sacrifice the Island Of Jamaica and give up all
be: revenue therefrum-has awakened in the minds
OF navy reflective men in this country most serious
!tcugLts and now, when thur interest has become so
extended lead the aistocracy Of old England to
propose alliance with New England to accomplish
their long desired object by open and actual
with the South. it is quite time that overy man, wo-
,pan and child should have their attention aroused.
The present generation 10 the North, has grown up
90 English Abolition literature, aud the public mind
has boon mbued With the idea that negro slavery
= sin and settled N the opinion that it is great
:a:;eas and moral evil, tla. With the exception of
the old men-who on the stage at the time it
acquainted with it--one hardly God person now
who does not think il tue greatest wrong and evil that
eve. cursed q community. The general deluslon on
th. .rhat in tho North sstoushes the people IN the
siave Sist.s and they wonder how il is possible fOc
whole people " conceive, that they know so much
mora about their business, their mauners aud their
mode Of treating their servants THAI they know them
ecivc. ss to diotato " them aud pronounce them oil
eaya:as and barbarians aud under the curse Of the
almighty.
