Mr. LovEJoy-The question is, whether avery s to ex-

question over which have not exclusive jurisdiction
Slavery s called an Constitution" but is 10 institution

The morality Of slavery has been settled long ago.
The ethics Of it longer discussed Ages and ages

pay there robbery will go--wherever piracy will pay
there piracy will Co. And wherever human 1esh Ia
cheaper than hevmg cannibslsm viii prevail,

than polygamy, slaveholding Is worse, wicked,
more criminal, inglorious 70 man, and moro
abhorrent 10 God Saveholdng has Justly called the
Aum Of all crime You put every crime into tha moral

the violence OF robbery has the bloody q pi-
