conclusions that the mass Of the people Of the
North who profess to be anti-slavery are deceived,
ut least in their position, and that the men who
represent them, either in tho Republican party or
in these great denominations are either knowingly
deceivers, liars, hypocrites, or else they are them
telves deceived and tho reason why we have such
indifference, such apathy ana obtusencss, is owing
to tive fact that there are so few men who, when
