Thousands Of Keniuck ians, he said, thought
The same way; and did they dare 10 SPEAK
publicly, and make such speeches as Mr..
Smiths, slavery would be abolished in a few
years Such no doubt is The fact The
non-slaveholders and aa,islavery men at
the Souh dare no. express their sentiments,
although they are undoubtedly numerous in
many of The Southern States. When free.
dom becomes national once more, and
slavery sectional, this will no longer be the
case, and the non-slavehoder OF the Slave
States will dare 10 raise his voice against
the tyranny which now seals his lips and
otherwise oppresses him. l1.
