LETTER FROM HARTFORD CITY.

HARTFORD CRY, April I, 1862.
Mr. Editor: Dear Sir have fre.
qucnIly thought that Secession was q
good deal Ike the first crime that man
ever committed. YouwiIl recolIect, that
when the great Jehovah made bis op.
Pearance in the garden, in the cool oil
the evening and called for Adam, who
hid himself from the presence of his
maker, that ho camO forth and Gcknow.
ledgCd that he had eaten Of the forbid
den fruit, but tried to screen himself from
the punishment due the awful crime
which he had porpctratod by laying it on
some one clsc-saying the "woman
which thou gaycst mo--she gayest me
and did cat, and the woman she like
her guilty consort, laid it on the Devil.
Here you perceive that the guilty pair
did make an effort to lay the blame some
where else, tasp where : puglt iasay
10 have re1tel.
Now, sir, our Secession Adams and
Ewes are just like the old Adam aud Eve.
They made an effort to put the entire
blame on the poor oil Devil-thesc try
to put the blame or guilt of their crimes
on the head of the poor Abolitonists.--
They say now, that they are as good
Union men rs anybody and that they al.
ways have been, Ond that whatever, they
may have done in their efforts to destroy
the government, mutt bo put down to the
account Of the AbOlitiOnists. That all
the blood that has been shed, al the life
that has been sacrificed, that all The
widows and orphans tears that have
been shed, must bo summed up against
this poor victim Of their implacabIo ha-
tired. They say thutif the anti-savcry
men had held their tongues and had jtst
let them alone, that this would never
have been, Very COOL presume,
that ifthcre had never been any Ser
pents chat Satan could never have temp.
tod our first parents, and no one will say
that il they had not been tempted that
they would have sinned. But God crea.
ted tho Serpent; therefore, God is the
great sinner, Tor having made this insru-
ment through which the Devil was ena-
bled to accomplish his hcllish purposes.
But our Secession traitors will discover,
Just as the guilty pair in the garden Of
Eden did, that the grea! weight Of their
crimes will fall where it justly ought, VIZ:
on their own guilty heads. 1t dOn't
make any difference how much wrong
another does, it doot jus tify me in doing
wrong, More auon.
