paying tribute 10 the John Brown sympa-
thisers.
The South still has splendid cards in her
hands if she will only play them. The
constitution OF Northern society is arificial
in the extreme. Immense wealth has been
accumulated there. A few are richer than
tho Kings Of the East, the multitude labor
for their daily bread much of this wealth
is breath-the breath Of credit. A civil
convulsion will bring their paper system of
credit tumbling about their heads. The
first gun fired in civil war will cost them
$780, 900, and strikes will not be con
fined to the shoemakcrs, but will become
epidemic. If Lincoln is elected, let us put
them at defiance, apd if they incline to try
the last argument of kings against us-sery
we'll. When, in sixty days, they have
lost $500, 900, and hear the curses Of
their unemployed mob, demanding bread
or blood, perhaps the doctrine of negro
equality will not be quite so popular, and
the beginning of a powerful; reaction may
take place, the harbingefsof:f long years Of
speace and fraternity. But if no reaction
flakes place, and our Northern tyrants per-
ssist in putting US to our mctal-very we'll.
I If nothing will do them but the sword, be
jtso.
IIssAet us show them that we can grasp the
sSSfd as we'll as they can, that we arc not
| degenerate descendants Of those glorious
heroes from whom we draw our lineage
If the worst comes to the worst, we can but
fall, sword in hand, fighting for all that
makes Life desirable, Justice equality, and
our country. But I have no fear as TO the
result, ifit comes to question otarms.. We
can give blows as welEas recass them,;and
We are as apaao, have our winter quarters
fin the city ofNew York, as they theirs in
New Orleans.
But We do nossdesire war. We wish
peace and fraternity in the Union If possi-
BILE; but one thing there is which re are
determined to hare, in the Union or out Of
-it-equality. Woe 10 those who would
rob us Of this for tbesswill bring great ca
lamities onsthsir; country, themselves, (, and
humanity. -: =
