frrom the No. Central Christian Advocated

FREE LABOR IN MIssOuKI.-Everv section Of
the country and every class Of society is deep
ly interested in the position and prospects OF the
question of free labor in Missouri. Its ecOnom-
zeal, commercial, political, moral and religious
bearings are undergoing the closest scrutiny;
and its comparison with a cOerced, unremuner-
ated, degraded and deInOralizDg system Of labor
such as slavery presents, is evolving its won
derfui and magic superiority more and more
every day. The selfShneSS, bigUtry and into-
erance Of the flnatical slavery propaganda of
this state in their recent Kansas cTusades and
their brutal and murderous treatment Of their
own fellow citizens who dared TO differ with
them in opinion, have not only called forth the
honest and hearty indignation of good men
elsewhere, but have been especially successful
in evoking a spirit of independent Investigation
liberty loving citizens, which bids (air so far to
at least secure at distant day the right of
white men to citizenship in Missouri. Indeed,
from present indications, have good hope
that this body of death" will be peacefully and
lawfully removed from the state entirely before
the lapse of many years.
This result We earnestly desire from every
consideration which we think ought to influence
the Judgment and conscience of an enlightened
citizen and christian. We believe slavery TO be
great evil" and an evil fur the perpetual
continuance OF which in Missouri there is no
sufficient reason. OF course We do not consider
the institution digiHe one, else whatever our
motives might be as regards its influence upon
real estate, commerce and the material prospect.
ty Of the state in general, we should, in every
proper manner, defend and build il up, though
the states upon three sides of us should double
US in material, wealth and prosperity in n few
years. We believe that christian, and espe-
cially 4 christian minister, should hold himself
IN readiness to sacrifice srerythiHg Of earthly
Ii good in order TO accomplish the will Of God on
the earth and did We subscribe 70 the now Cos
pel-THE "uS-NEGRoIZED gospeF'-we should
take up the cross" and contend for the faith,
at however great peenniary sacrifice TO ourself
and our ncighbOrs. As, however, we have not
been converted to this new Or'ihT Of pieiy. we
feel at liberty as free white male citizen" OF
the State of Missouri, to endorse most cordially
this free labor movement so long as it Is proper
" conducted And we do most heartily rejoice
in the unparalleled tide OF prosperity which is
sitting in upon our state in consequence Of this
upheaval Of society.
