article headed, "Pedee Stirring:' and
really could but smile at the mistake
the Hon. Anti-J cfFcrsonion Editor was
laboring under. Did he really imagine
that it was Pcdec that made so many
!. humble Acknowledgements to the Demo
cratic god-Squattcr Sovereignty? And
was he really pleased that they "man''
tested disposition to yield hearty ap
proval to the majesty Of the law Now
sir, allow me through your columns, to
correct the gentleman in that respect
1t is true, that the meeting was held
in Pedec, but it is not true, that those
famous appeals were carnations from the
brain Of Pedcc. No sir, they were
purely Rochester; the great principles
"of the thirteen original States, issued
from the brains Of the three pro slavery
expounders of Blackstone; and it is also
true, that at that meeting they alone ex'
pounded those great principles, as laid
down in those famous resolutions.
Let US for a few moments examine the
contents of their "preamble and resolu
+;n,s MI ~r~" uP WIN Il solemn
declaration, that the "citizens of Pedee
did not protect, aid and abct the aforc-
said yiolators of the law; and that the
confessions and reports are erroneous as
to the place or township Now sir, let
me state without fear of contradiction,
that as Pedee is in Iowa Township, so is
the famous Camp Ground of Capt. John
Brown and his Virginia confedcrates -
Now sir, it is surprisingly ridiculous,
that so near at home, they should publish
such gross misrepresentation. Why
sir, they, and their generation should
feel forever immortalizcd, that the soil OF
their own loved township should so slim,
ulate seventeen men, that they, with the
assistance of one COW. could brighten the
-
chivalry of Virginia, to the tune of one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Alas. how near sighted they are to the
interest of naturalization. They fur
ther proclaim through their learned ex
Founders, ''that they are ready aye will
ling to sustain the majcsty--of the law "
Methinks that majesty has lost her dig
nifty, when they apply it to such viola
ton of all law, as the extra judicial
decision Of Judge fancy What ma
jesty can there be in the highest tribun-
al known in our land, deciding to our
present corrupt Administlat on Estate
rights guaranteed to US by our
time honored forefathers? They first

No sir, | have no idea they meant that.
oh no. it has too much meaning in i, for
