Great Issue.
The importance of the approaching Presidential
contest, and the mighty issues involved render ne
cessary to address the people, North and South, in
the spirit of humanity and boldness We contend
that nothing but simple misunderstanding between
the two sections is the cause of our present difficult
ties and this explained, Massath thuseets and South
Carolina can stand upon the same platform But the
real issues must be met with sincerity honesty and
courage and like all dangers, looked boldly and man.
fully in the face. We are rapidly approaching cri-
sis, the greatest crisis history in The history
of free institutions The schemes of European mon
archists, begun half century ago 10 undermine and
destroy our republican system, are about 10 be
tested, to be exposed and exploded or to break up
the Union, and with it the last hope of republican
freedom.
We alarmists or Union savers We have
profound respect for the popular intelligence, and
undoubting faith in the virtue and patriotism of the
masses and on all questions where all alike have the
same opportunity to inform themselves we would
not presume to enlighten TO guide others. But on
the great sectional question of negro slavery when
more than half of the people ignorant necessari-
ly ignorant, of the real facts involved, we feel not
only authorized, but mperatively impelled to Law
these facts before them. There are upwards of
hundred newspapers at the North engaged in the
sole, undivided aDd Infamous effort to debauch the
instincts and reason of the people, and lead them in
to crusade against the Institutions the peace the
safety, the very existence of their brethren of the
South-to " abolish the natural relations of races
and oberating the distinctions of the Almighty
degrade the twenty millions of white citizens TO
hideous and eternally forbidden level with three
millions Of subordinate negroes.
| Then there eight hundred more that propose
the end indirectly-to limit slavery to pen
up the population of the South-to surround it with
| Gordon OF " free negrosm" and in concert with
their British allies and the monarchists of Europe
force by an outside pressure, the "aboltion of
slavery "-the equality of whites and blacks-the
destruction of Southern society," and from inevitable
necessity, dragging down with it the Democratic in
stitutons of the North
Now, it is a most wonderful and lameDtable fact
though there are many patriotic and well.meanng
presses at there North there is not one (excep this
paper) that defends the Southern society Although
we have existed seventy years on the present basis
and relation of races-though we have been attend
ed with success hitherto unknown in history
though the twenty millions of white men of this re-
public more Vlrtuous, intelligent and happy than
any other twenty mllous of their race-though the
three millions of inferior negroes are infinitely and
ineXpressble better off and happier than any other
portion of their race, and though every man who
thinks consecutivey for five minutes cannot avoid
knowing that to change these relations, and force
these negroes up, or ourselves down TO a common
level, no matter how it was done, must be and would
be an utter destruction TO all concerned-to the ne.
gro as we'll as ourselves; yet, wonderful indeed,
there is not single press in the whole North that
openly and directly aVows this condition of things
to be right or defends it, except temporary, acci
dental or perhaps an unavoidable &c evil" But we
have reached period in progress when the cur
tain must be drawn aside and the truth spoken
when ''savery must be understood and the true re-
lauons OF the races explained 10 the Northern peo-
ple-when the lies and impostures propagated by
the tools of British aristocrats must be exposed and
exploded, and peace restored to the nation This
we propose to do. We intend 10 call things by their
right 'names-to show that the system of the South
is the normal condition OF the negro and no slavery
at all-that it is humane and benifcent; in short
the natural relation of the races which must be pre-
served question OF humanity to the negro and as
vital to the manhood and freedom of the white man
And we confidently appeal to the patriotism of true
men and honest Democrats all over, North and South
East and West, to sustain us and aid us in this gor
Gus work. The Day Book has now large circula-
tion but it should have million of readers, not on
