HoWLs OF THE sERvILE PRESS


Northern servile press, since the great
movement of the American liberator. John
Brown. The New York Herald the
leader of the whole pack, sends up con-
tInuous combination of savage growlings
and lamentable groanings, that now and
then extend into howls which are truly ter
rible. These extremes occur when it is
hard pressed or cornered by its cotempora-
ries, or angered by disappointment; and
its calculations are so often either careless
ly or loosely made up, and so frequently
made upon everything and upon every bad
side of everything, that it is often-we may
safely say almost invariably-destined to
disappointment
The negro question, in its varied phases,
just now, is the great bone over which it is
snarling, while all the little seryile ours 90
yelplng to the same tune through the coun-
try, like SO many demi-devils on their way
to perdition. Negro Instructions, negro
slaves, negro freemen, negro inferierity,
negro content, negro discomfort, under
ground railroads, Canada, England, Vir-
ginla, the South, Congress, irrepressibIe
contiict-these are its daily sustenance.
Without these it could not exist moment.
One day it belches forth an account of all
the negro Instructions that have taken
place IN America from the commencement
to the present day. In its anxiety and its
torture, this satanic press may have forgot
ten that these so-called instructions are
but the throbbings Of long outraged peo,
pie after liberty that they vii have some
day, despite of men or devils, and that, by
these continual reminders, they will be
wrought upon the more speedily to exc
cute their work and effect their purpose.
Then, again, we have served up a long
and deplorable diatribe on the underground
railroad, suffering fugitives in Canada, &c.
In this last howl it tells most woeful sto-

always on hand) about the idleness and
thrlftIeSsness, poverty, starvation, and
wretchedness of the blacks in Canada. In
It's anxiety to make out case, it leaves no
stone unturned, and rakes in every nook
and corner Of an INDECENT but struggling
people whose better portion of life and
sweat and toll has been spent among and
Tor gang Of white thieves, rascals, and
tyrants in the Southern States of this
Union
And yet what does this satanic press
make out Simply nothing. 1t is ena-
bled to present a few isolated cases of
want-want in mid winter, away in the
dreary regions of Canada, among class of
men who, leaving all their long years of
labor behind, stripped and naked, without
penny, have fed for iberty's sake from
their accused oppression. What devilish
spirit is it that would hunt down such men.
thus loving liberty, because they are black
men who dare SO much for liberty's sake :?
Who but the veriest Of knaves or the We
rest Of fools that God has permitted to live
and breathe, would marvel at the greatest
conceivable amount of want in these poor
fleeing fugitives' homes at such a time as
this; and yet such is not the case These
self-iberated men, we have the highest au-
thority for saying, arrive in Canada at the
rate Of one hundred per month
Every attempt" says this servile jour
nal, 'to steal the blacks away from their
Southern masters and place them in Cana
da, and make them equal to the refined
Caucasian, is futile and wicked" Refined
Caucasian We read in the city journals
of authority that over four thousand white
paupers applied for and received aid in one
day, and this too on she same day thatthe
Herald" puts forth its famous tissue of
garbled statements and huge lies about a
few suffering fugitives, who are as drop
in the bucket when compared to the thou
sands of thrifty self emancipated colored
men this day in Canada
What viii his satanic majesty of the
servile press do with this one fact among
thousand that can be mentioned, of one
single days want, starvation, and suffering
among what it is pleased to term the re-
fined and superior Caucasian race, and this,
too, in enlightened New York;
There is theft, too, among the fugitives
in Canada, says this servile journal Would
it not be well, for the sake of further COM
parison, for this satanic press to look now
and then into and serve up to the public
the statistics of theft in Caucasian New
York; And while we are at it, there is
murder, too; but we believe there is moth
