The Black Republicans having by their
bitter and constant Attacksupon the South
BY their personal liberty bills by their
aSowed ielermipation to repeal the Fugitive
slave law; by their underground railroads
by their denial and refusal of equal rights
In the territories; BY thsir hatred of the
South developed with a murdcrous attack
upon the citizens Of Virginia by John Brown
and his bandits, and by their openly pro-
claimed intentions, certified to BY sixty'eight
Republican Congressman. to create IN the
south civil war and servile insurrectiOn-
having by these things forced the Union TO
the very verge Of dissolution, now seek to
cover their treason TO the compact which
binds these States together by vaunting
themselves staunch union men, and With Q
deep and devilish Hypocrisy, reading homi-
lies to the wronged and maddcned south
upon the wickedness Of disunion senti-
ments IN
To us Of the free States who arc unwilling
falsely to deny the outrages past and tresent
upon the South, Or to disguise the aggFes-
siye intentions u ife Black Rapublicun par.
y in the future, and who, with IN Intense
devotion to the Union, would preserve it by
tho only effective and possible means---a
compliance with our constitutional obliga-
tons in spirit and in letter-to us the Black
Republicans offer the epithot of disunion-
lists. The Democratic party these phari'
sees cry, has become q disunion party
whilo we Republicans, Black or Brown AZ
YOU may choose to call US, are the honest
and earnest supporters and defenders Of the
Union. This is indeed Stealing the livery
Of heaven to serve the devil in, and tha
devil the devil Of abolitionism, the wicked
est and bIoodiest Of all devils and the very
father of disunion.
The Black Republicans are responsible
for the spirit of disunion rife in the South
and it is responsibility from which the,
shall not and cannot escape, Should at
future day the ghost Of a dead union pre-.
sent itself at their feasts with atwenly NOR
tai murders on its crown" they cannot evor

we did it." If the deed be done, they vii
have done it, but not even in the way o
bold, open murder, but Of sneaking, coward

tory will hold them accountable for it ant
for the train Of horrors, consequent upon il

administer the government upon purel
sectional basis; that it goaded and wronge
the South, until that South feeling herse
to bo reduced to degradation and vassalag
in the Union, sought to regain her freedoi
and independence out of the Union. Ay
and history viii say further, that the Sout
