The Feliciana Democrat., 1855-09-01
Condemned.

That emphatic and decisive word, CONDEMNATION, ;,
stand, in broad and glarng letters the front of
know nothingi.m in the south. 1t was bold and
daring stratagem of the northern abolitonists, to
divide and break down the united democracy of the
south, which stood as rampant against them, in
sending this organized of vile oaths and tests by
of secret emissaries, amidst the people of the
south, TO misead and divert the unsuspecting, by
exciting their prejudices and passions against cath
olics and foreigners while they were to profit by
the real design In uniting their northern know moth
ing clans in solid phalanx against the rights and
dearest interests of that south, which they to
overrun and break down by this dark and treache-
rous But the true natives Of the south, were too
wide awake for the natives Of the north, and utter
condemnation is the just and righteous fate Of this
attempted imposition and outrage upon southern
honesty, feeling, and intelligence.
In old Virginia, the land Of Washington, and JEFF
ferson 1t was overwhelmed. scohed and hootcd from
the sacred soil, In old North Carolina, the birth
place, and honored home Of Nathaniel Macon, and
where the first Declaration of Independence orig
mated, II has been hurled back with contempt and
spurned from her borders by TEN THOUSAND MA
JoRlTY; in Tennessee, where still lives the spirit OF
the noble old Hero 1t can find no abiding place; in
glorious Alabama, THE LAND OF REST where lie tho
ashes of WIN. r. King, and William Smith, TWELVE
THOUSAND MAJORITY, of true Americans declare that
1t shall not desecrate her noble soil in Texas the
brave lone star state, won to liberty by southern
blood, annexed to our glorious constellation by
southern rights, and democratic policy, 1t has moi
dared to make Its appearance in day light, and it'
foot prints as those of its native prede
cessors, the Camanches.
In Kentucky alone, where Prentice is now tn,
ruling spirit, and o Cassius NJ. Clay, with his claI
of Abolition preachers, are permitted and cncoura
ged in making abolition speeches throughout tn
country. II has barely found a temporary rostinl
place. There it ha. held on by frail tenure, ant
thinks itself safe because it has Abolition know no
thing Ohio ut its back. But the spirit of her illus
trous dead will rise against It, the ides of '5G
and drive it with its bloody train from her hospita
BILE and honored soil.
Thus stands the count so far. Georgia is soon
speak, but already Is its condemnation sealed in tn
Empire state of the south by $4,000 majority. Mar
it, Maryland will put it under her foot; Mississippi
will sweep II from her borders as with a hurrican
In our Louisiana there is not sugar enough to max

at all palatable to the tastes of the true of Lo
G isiana; fre thousand majority of her freemen wi

Q respect and honor to his memory.
4 Thus is this foul NORTHERN ISM, Indignantly rep
i dated and condemned by the true men of the sou
}, and driven back to its putrd dens in New Englan
n and the north, where Abolionism alone constitut
its life and being and where abolitonists only p,
lie it honor and reverence. There let it live and di
and there let II bs buried In it's native and bsttI
