" I shall defend the South and make war
upon the abolitionism Of the North
"Those fiery bigots at the North who
propose to abolish the institution of slavery,
as it exists in the South, are not following
the dictates of Gods spirit or law"
And the Jewish anti-slavery gsmblers,
who put him to death, divided out his gar
ment, as you recoIlect casting lots for
them"
What an unmitigated generation of
hypocrites. They stole AID sold into per-
petual bondage race of human beings it |
was not profitable to keep"
They, the abolitionists, stole the African
from his native land, and sold him into
bondage for the sake of gain.
The pious and religious portion Of North
ern abolitionists, take it, are the better,
and in these the people of the South can
repose no sort of confidence"
The harsh epithets and rude insults of
unprincipled freedom shriekers and false
| hearted abohtionists never travel in the di-
rection Of Gods habitation"

agitators in heaven-where l expect to 90
after DEATH shall conclude they have en-
tered that world of JOY by practising gross
fraud upon the door-keeper."
-" If none hut blue-bellied Yankees and
unmitigated Northern AbOlitionists come
down upon US, We shall sleep with nothing
more terrific under our pillows than spike
gimblets"
Abolition yIllifers of the South and the
vile conspirators against the glorious Union.
"Abolitionism asserts that the early
founders of this republic were opposed to
slavery. This deny and denounce as ut
terly false"
"When Christ was on earth He nor his
apostles were never known to preach an
abolitionism sermon"
And when your blue-bellied Yankees
come South with Sharp's rifles and Holy
Bibles to seize upon our slaves, let me say
to you that they will not find themselves in
Kansas"
Southern men, unlike abolitionists, are
men of good breeding
ask no favors, no quarters, no sympa-
thy from abolitionists and l expect none"
As churches at the South we cannot
affiliate with men who fight under the dark
and piratical flag of abolitionism, and whose
Internal affairs smoke with the vile incense
of Northern fanatics"
