CONNIE un seul; ct que les tentatives de quelques
hommesde s'immiscer dams les questions d'escla-
wage pour lie Sud, est une violation fagrante de la
bles malheurs sa population; ct quaucas on lie gou-
vernement federal rappellerait lie Fugitive Sauc
Lar on toucherait a sa teneur, cette mesure de sa

quill serait alors du devoir de la Caroline du Nord
de prendre telles measures qui seraent necessaires
pour sa propre surete.
