tangle the difficulties in which they found them
selves.
But notwithstanding we handled our Southern
brethren, as Izaak Walton teaches his disciples
they should the frog they use for bait, q" as II We
loved them" il has not saved us from torrent OF
vituperstion and nvective. And We should not
mind that 90 much had it not been accompanied BY
an exposure of designs which we had hoped TO
keep concealed until the moment of their execution,
and by prefguring of the judgments which will
yet overtake us. The editor of this paper, we are
assured on the authority of The Cheran Gazette,
" is fully cognizant of all the fanatical midnight
" Vaccinations Of Northern fanatics for the de-
" structon Of African Slavery in the South even
@ at the cost of the lives of the white race He
" well knows the consequences to result from the
90 ianatical crusade if successful, of Northern
@ Vandals and Goths, and Of prostitutes, which
has been organized to operate upon the
South" And the further revelation is made, that
this individual Of uncertain status known as Mrs.
Emmerson was Zone of the basest of his emissa-
"ries who selected as her field Of operations the
midnight camp-fres Of her unwilling companions
" (the negroes), in the forests darkest hooks and
most secluded des" She was armed not
merely it seems, with " the lantern and side-sad-
die" which struck such diSmay into the heart of
Chivalry, but with "serpent's tongue stepped in
1.-the poison of the Upas-tree the very shadow of
which is death" This material circumstance
was omitted in the original account of the cam
pagn against her, or il would have much enhanced
the horror Of the dreadful story. Who can wonder,
after all this to be told that Southern Chiyalry
" can have no sympathy with free lovers and free
negroes, the bone and sinew Of Northern
ciety p
Our reasonable practices having been thus laid
bare, we are made to tremble in view of the swift
calamity that is to Oyertake us because of them.

phor We suppose), The Chera,c Gazette thinks that
the South should cease ts battle of words and resort
'to blows" And the blows it threatens US with
fearful ones, indeed. 1t proposes to carry the bat
tie into the enemy's country and to send mission
aries of their own, whether in feminine disguise or
not it does not specify, to teach " the down'trodden
" and degraded starving millions of the North
" their rights to q iring, to living of luxury

here put in our prOtestatiOn that as many as may
be the millions that We possess and gilded az the
floating palaces something like the floating Bethels,

must protest, We say, against the innuendo that all
these things were got ieithomt labor. If our South

he comes North, We think we can convince him

probably exceeds that of all the journals printed

our entire willingness TO witness the advent Of as
many such missionaries as may be thought neces-
sary to bring about this desirable conversion. If
they can overthrow the system of Free Labor
they are welcome TO do it, for all us. But this is
not all that awaits US. A yet more serious doom
is foreshadowed, as will be seen in the following
