and make homes, and the nerve to defend
themselves, and Their property, and Their
institutions against the lawIess bands OF
hired thieves, who had been sent here by
the abolition aid societies, so long as they
had anything like an equal chance. But
Missouri has done her duty, and nearly
exhausted her supplies, and cannot always
successfully contend against the allied ar
mics of all the abolition States of the Union.
The time has now come when every slave
State must take Its stand, and do It's share,
or Kansas IS gone. Send your hardy sons,
| with their wives and children. and slaves,
to settle and live with US. and vote with
us, and fight with US. if necessary. until
| our victory is complete; and by the opera
ton they viii make money, and Kansas
be saved to the South. We are glad to
see the young men from the South coming
amongus; but Kansas needs, and we want
also to see, more men with their wives,
| making homes on our rich land One such
settler viii do more in determining our IN
! situations than twenty young men, although
they may be voters, and worthy men. We
want men to take up the country andmake
farIns.e The country is rich and healthy,
and abounds in good pure water, and al
though timber in many places is scarce, yet
good rock. and stone coal, of the very best
quality is found all over the country In
every direction around Atchison, particu-
larry west and northm est, the very best
coal can be found, and our citizens are
now using it, and find it cheaper than wood
at two and half dollars cord.
Surely every man in the South has had
his eyes open by this time, and sees and
finds the absolute necessity of efficient and
immediate aid in order TO save Kansas.
The stake is surely worth a struggle ;. and,
| if not wen by the South, God alone can
fofsee the evils that are to follow. We
| say TO the South, now is the time for ac-
| ton. Send on your forces, armed and
! provisioned for the war, as good soldiers
| should be, who come to make homes in
! our country and live among us, and, If ne
eessary, die with us indefenee Of our rights
! and institutions,
| Thirdiy-Will the South come to the
rescue, and make Kansas slave State
| We are sure she will. We know her peo-
! Pile, and when once aroused, with truth and
| justice Oh their side, they viii fly to the
rescue of their friends ia Kansas, where
all the combined forces of abolitionism
j will quail and skulk back to tie dark sinks
and hiding places from whence they came
! by the assistance of the aid societies.
Such creatures cannot stand before the
: forces of honest ffeesnen, who rate the
! white little higher than the black race.
Every mail brings us fresh encouragement
4 from the South. The tone OF our Southern
exchanges, and private letters, satisfy US
that our brethren IN the whole South are
becoming aroused; and beng made sem
! sible OF the necessity of immediate action.
we say, let that action be not olay in word
but in deed, and the work will be done,
/ and that speedily. Kansas should, can,
and viii be a slave State.
We hope every subscriber to our paper
will take an interest in these subjects, and
(, extend our circulation, so that our friends
may learn the truth in relation to Kansas
affairs. Let all subscribers make them
sel:es agents for the paper, and collect
from Themselves. and erery neighbor the
subscription in advance. and remit it to us.
! We need the money, for the publication Of
our paper has been a losing business from
the beginning; yet the abolitionists can
come into the Territory, and food the whole
Union with falsehoods and SANDERS, and
thrive and grow rich at their villainy, by
the contributions Of the wealthy fanatics
at the North. We know our brethren at
the South have the ability to sustain few
| papers in the Territory, to defend their
rights and institutions, and we urge ilnme-
date and material aid and action in this,
as well as all other matters pertaining to
Kansas affairs.
