And, after all the Cotton States had "seceded,"
on the 23d of February, 1861, it still held over

repeatedly said and we once more insist that
the great principle embodied by Jefferson in the Declare

their Just power from the consent 0 the governed is sound
and lust and that If the Slave States the Gotten States,

We believe orr Contemporary has, since the war
began, faithfully kept its promise to do It's best to
forward the views of the " alienated" among the
Southern people, but it has not been by affirming
their " clear moral right to form an independent
nation" We understand the Tribune no longer
comedies this right, and to this extent must be said
to have misled the Southern disorgauizers who

dred families depend its bounty for their daily bread
1t has become great public nccessiIy and it is the

ceercd and his arm nerved to victorious battle against
the vanda and ruthless foe, by the comforting conyc-

Let our farmers and planters especially, in every sec

Charity is twice blessed-it blesseth him that gives
