Habltual evils change not a sudden,
But many days must pass, and many sorrows
Conscious remorse and anguish must be felt,
To curb desire, TO break the stubborn will,
And work second nature in the soul,
Ere virtue can resume the place she lost.

guided him into Inconsistency with lila principles
ms n man. Aud these feelings ! think have led
him into II more serious error, where lac attempted
to characterize the mcmorialists. Speaking Of tic
Lceisiuidro, or part of it, he says, "uf the memo
rialists they could expect nothing Lut censure. As
II class they have always melted it cut without stint,
to all anti.slavcry politicians. TO cast tt vote is at
any and all times 10 call down the indignation Of
these true ones who have come entirely out from
government" How ever uninientional may have
been this misrepresentation of the position Of
Disuniunists, and their course towards political
mon, it nevertheless docs them the greatest injus.
tice. No one has had better opportunity than j.
G. Gilbert, to learn, that Disunionists,a las such, con
denim no man simply for voting. 1t is only when
the vote cast carries with it as they believe, and rs
they think they demonstrate, an influence in sup
port Of chattcl slavery tia, they begin to c~riticisc it.
And then fidelity to the slave demands Of them
this testimony Ogaint the act,a against every other
pro.slavcry influence.
To the Disunionist, as we'll as to all right feeling
men, it would be far more pleasant TO commend
than to consure. But it is not a matter Of choice
We may often err in judgement perhaps, but if We
do the only way to convince us is to meet the po-
sitions We take plainly and squorely and argue
them out of the way. And as the Legislature La
