When the rebels made negro slavery the
aVowed basis of their coniederacy we
thought they had reached the utmost lin
its of theoretical folly and absurdity. But
a Virginia AbstrRctionist has led of in
an entirely new and astounding stretch of
the slavery doctrine. In the Virginia SEN
ate, Onilhe 18th of May, Mr.. Collier sub
mitted a joint resolution declaring slavery
to be thefundamental doctrine OF southern
civilization, and that il Is an institution Of
such inherent Fightfulness that it is not
subject to the will of the majority in any
State, and can never beab0lished without
the consent of each individlal STAKEHOLDER
I-iH, fact, can never be abolished at all, be-
cause eechman (Rhitesman of course will
always have the right TO make negroes
slaves and hold them so IN spite Of all
laws and censtitutiors. This is making sla.
very a,dtVine institution with vengeance.
Thsi object of thisnsW attemptato extend
the Outposts of the peculiar Institution is
obvious enough. II Is Intended to meet
and check the tendency to gradual euianei-
Ipati6nOn the resident'siplan, which win
be developed in Virginia. rs well as In the
other border States, after the rebel armies
are driven out. Me5quOte Mr.. Collier,s
