wby--I don't exactly know" says Mr. sumner only he
reads advertisement for runaway negro down South,
and then goes of into fine flourish of rhetoric and
plenty Of quotations from the classical dictionary.
What are you going TO do Suppose you could combine
all the North against the South you going TO dissolve
the Union 2" Oh, no. Mr. samner "we for the
Union provided drive slavery OF itn But sup
