return we have right to ask fer your as
sistsnce nowi We had a right To expect
that you would do something FIR cotton!
/ blame the North for giving mp Mason
and Slidel so s"on--I say we have right
to revolution---I blame the North for it's
friendlness to England-it has been always
friendly to England, and the South has been
always hostile Was not the Australasiau
which you sent out loaded with soldiers
powder and ball-sent hack TO you by those
cowardly Northe'ners loaded with -four and
corn ? You don't understand this question
here in England: as this hall is composed Of
all natons--so in America, .... ....
You can't knock out a peoples brains,
No matter how the bolt is hurled
The bl.od Of nations ia in our veins,
And those who strike US strike the porid
l tell you one thing-we have only been
getting up this little affair to smuse you.--
The South has not found it to answer apd
now begs for mercy.
ASSISTANCE MUST BE RENDERED sooN--THE
STONE BL. CKADE. ..
You must come within three weeks to
help us, or you will be too late. l Know,
for have full Information upon the subject.
Three weeks enly. Wait, and you shall be
convinced that the Anglo-Saxon race has not
degenerated--thst we have the power our-
selves to put down revolution. Cheers How
absurd for the North to Justify blockading
our harbors 80 that you may run in your
munitions of war over The sunken ships. by
maintaining that England sunk ships at Sa-
vannah eighty years ago, where we Seces-
sionists sunk more the other day that Rich
eleu made dyke of sunken ships at Ro.
dered Boulogne to be blocked up in 1904
and sent FIVE ships, loaded with stone. tc
Alexandria in 1907 that Lord Dundonald
tried to get Lord Aulgrave to follow suit a,
Ak in 1900.
How absurd for the pud-sils and greasy
mechanics Of the North to find excuse in
despoiling the harbor Of Charleston, by say.
| ing that blockade Of stone was better than
. blockade of dead mcn-That the Times
wished Delhi to be destroyed and sown with
salt (htar;) and recommended the Govern
ment to destroy Pekin street by street, and
huvss by house iCheers.) Let England
burn Copenhagen and not give up Malta 4;
but the North shows great weakness by try
ing such justification. They thought it bet
ter to sink ships than to blow our brave
chivalry from the muaxles Of the guns. Al
was done in India. Hear, hesr;) but if we
traitors We would tie them to the cannon al
England did, and send them back to their
camp in pieces, as slight rebuke to them,
(Shsme.) ..
Yet Blood Blood Blood screams tire san.
culinary Times,
Oh, God that miscreants should grow rich
upon their crimes.
Don't forget that we shall lay our murder at
Lord Palmerston's door. Promises have
been broken. We thought you would re-
cogniIe us before We depended upon your
pro-slarery professions during the last thirty
years for support sgal st the Atolitionists.
tLaughter.l
Britannia's breast with pity swells for
slaves!-their wrongs are ne'r forgotien--
Poor maid IL fear her bosom swells are btu,
the rise and fall of cotton.
YANcEY AND MASON.
We blame you for letting Mr.. Yancey
bolt away from the country the moment he
heard of my preparing his eventful blngra-
phy--we blame you for GOODNESS in not
showing any hospitality to the author If the
Fugitive Slave Law. You should make tie
most of Mr.. Mason---he has cost you a mill
lion He rooms just opposite nae at Fel
ton's, bus he has never called at No. 1s.
Larghter)
am told that Mr.. Gregory, N. p, is the
only caller he has had since his arrival.
(Hear.) Really, you are wonderful reo-
pie. l believe you will yet come out all
right-(cheers) and swear by America as in
fprmer times-(hear)---an other mail, you
must get another act in the tragedy of EN-
pre. can hear the American cannon play
ing the last act. How prophetic was Brit
ish Berkly -
Westward the star of empire takes its way
The four FIRST acts already past
A fifth shall close the drama with the day ;
Times noblest offering is the last.
Mr.. Train fairly electrified the audience,
who heartily cheered throughout, keeping it
up for several minutes after hc sa. down.
