Subjugation'is a possible though
not a probable thing. But We
should esteem it highly probable, if
we could believe the Southern peo-
pie capable Of such sclf-pollution.
Nay, they would deserve to be sub
jugated. We 10 not deny that
England is responsible for this war;
we are we'll aware that for thirty
years she has been employing the
anti-slayery agitation to divide the

a snbjugated South, SO far from
wishing to fight England or any
other Power, would rejoice to see
an enemy Of its subjugator, wheth-

the Emperor of Austria, triumphant
over it's Yankee masters, even
though it ended in transferring our
own yassalage to the hands Of the
conqueror. Once subjugated, it is
only not a matter Of Indifference to
us who are our proprietors, because
we would infinitely rather be the
leighmen Of Europen kings than the
bondincn of Yankee t:skmastcrs.-
