Resolved, That Ne are opposed "a

both of Which tend directly and surely

that there can be no permanent

Now, secession is lreason--it is a
deliberate attempt 10 destroy the gov
ernmcnt Of The United States. II is
the highest crime known 10 our laws,
or that can be committed against any
Abolitionism Is an OPP
pinion il is the belief that negro sla-
very Is crime tia, ought to be abol-
ished. There is nothing criminal in
ibis opinion, On The contrary, il is
tlle belief o. All civilized and Christian
people. II does not necessarily imply
hostility to the constitution aud the

TO resist the laws or 70 excite
among tie people This ul-
tra form Of allolitionism has been an
error Of philanthropy. Secession is a
crime. An attempt to
yoke abolition and secession together
as equally wicked and mischievons is
dishonest. NOBODY believe that they

HORSE Tu!EyE5.-lIorscs seem
ust now 10 be in great demand, cs-
leciallJ BY thieves Of thenigm. We
snow moi how many horses we have
,een advertised az stolen within
ew weeks.
Even our friend, the children's
minister, who addressed the Sabbath
.chool down in Mrs. Munson's Grove,
Il the great gathering III re, a year
go last Alb of July, has had bis horse
Gomez stolen. This is a serious
oss TO him, for the horse and trim
nings were worth a hundred dollars
n more. Bat as comets sometimes
disappear and then return, so we
rope it will be in this case, and that
,roiher Morgan will soon see both
lead and tail, Of his "Comet'
gain.
In the mean time, let those who
ave good horses, keep an eye on
hem, or they may be soon perform
ng in Stewards cavalry, or some
slIere else, equally out Of the proper
lace. This is said for the benefit Of
ur readers. The editors horse is
cad, and he has no fear Of his being
tolcn.
