years after-l828-th the North voted
for protection. Then Mr.. Calhoun, in
1882, wanted to kill the bantling he had
created in 1916, and because he could not
succeed, started his hell-born notification
cry, which was so summarily stopped by
General jackson. What was the Mexican
war but a Southern institution? What
were the filibustering expeditions against
Cuba but Southern institutions? Where
did Lopez hail from? Where Walker
Where did Lynch law, the Bowie knife,
and the duelist originate but in the South.
Is not Reputation purely Southern in
stitution? These are all Southern institu-
tions, and certainly negro slavery is not
an institution of the North. Where, then,
does England find food for sympathy with
the damned traitors in this hell-born con-
spiracy? Was it the North or South who
sent contributions to Ireland in their dis

Yes, gentlemen, it was in the capital OF
the so called Confederate States, Rich

action of the mob, and saw for the first
time that he was not welcome in the land
where once his ancestors ruled. Hear,
and true. Knowing then that all these
acts of violence and hostility against
England came from the South, you can
imagine the disgust of the North in read
ing the Times day after day, and the
Telegraph, the Herald, the Chronicle and
nearly all the entire British press encour-
aging the rebels on in their unchristian
work! England has made a mistake
