wag,d II divided the poiics of Greece aud

20 that the history OF Liberty is the history OF the

| As American citizens we are called upon to fight
that battle by resisting the cx nsion Of the institu.

area of its e1teson is q whim of the Slave Power,
but ia bastd upon the absolute necessities OF the sys
tenn. An institution which Is mentally and mora "
pernicous cannot be economically advantageous. To
| supuose so Is to accuse God OF putting premium
upon Sin. The sy-em of Slave Labor by demoraliZnS
the aborer and exhausting the SOIL absolutely demands
| expansion.
| Uf this economical fact there can be no doubt The
State Of Vmgnia, for instance, has a finer climate,
richer tnd chesper soils With LEES expensive means
of oevelcpirg their wealth, than Penns, lvsnia, New
