The saints on earth"-and they all live in
Massachusetts thus photographed by the
Portsmouth On. H. States and Union. If the
picture is not too true to life to suit, hang tup
in the gallery of your admiration:
About every violent, wicked and illegal act
of our times, originated in Massachusetts.
The majority in that State are race of bed
lamites, unfit to live anywhere except on some
isolated island away from all contact with the
rest of mankind, and if they could be either
transported to such place, or all piled upon a
huge raft, towed out to md-ocean and sunk, it
would be better for this country and the world.
A more impracticable, crazy, facti0us. dictate
rial self-cOnceited, brainless set, God never
created. Every public act of their lives proves
it. They elevate any and every sort of pOllt-
ical and moral standard of conduct and Gov
ernment, Jump upon it shout " all aboard" and
put off under full head of steam fZZling and
rafting away, as though they We're the sum
mum bOnMna of all creation, and bid the rest OF
the world clear the track, or get run over and
ground to powder. Everybody venturing to
oppose them, or even question their absolute
right in all cases and respects whatsoever, is
cursed as a barbarian, branded as an outlaw,
or guillotined as culprit in the discretion of
their bloated sovereignty They were evident
ly never designed to live with, or in proximity
to, the rest of the human race, because their
natures are too turbulent and quar- elsOme to
permit respectable equilibrium of society.
Their ancestors were both political and reli-
giOus fanatics, always in row with somebody
and never at perfect peace with anybody, not
even with themselves These creatures of our
day have inherited all the instincts all the pas
sion and conceits of their fathers and mothers
of the early Puritan history, and actually sue
ceed in keeping our whole country in state
of dem0niac confusion, either by powers usurp-
ed, or by immoral examples which stimulate
the dread and hatred of all the rest not totally
subject to tbs debauchment of their influence.
Their original politics was the purest toryism,
which being overcome, appeared later in feder-
aiism, enemies of the country in all wars
against foreign foe. and disseminatOrS of Sc
dition everywhere. They burned witches and
Quakers, whipped Baptists through the streets
because they did not like that kind of religion,
hunted and prosecuted everybody who ventured
the exercise of the rights of free thought and
expression, got up one or two rebelliOns, multi
fed their own voluntary compact with other
States, shot down United States officers in the
public streets for attempting to execute the
laws enacted by the votes OF their own repre-
sentatives in Congress, armed John Brown
raiders and sent them bowling and numbering
into other Jurisdictions, voted to dissolve the
Uuion on the Texas question, permitted the
public burning of the Constitution of our gov
ernment, and settled life estate upon the
traitor who perpetrated the deed, preached
treason and disunion continually down to 1861
and since that time INDUCED spasm Of patri-
otism which is the rankest and bloodiest trea-
son ever conceived and horn in earth or hell
Ihey tried Know NOthingsm and Native Amer
icanism and burnt the Catholic Convent at
CharlestOwn to crafty their miserable spirit of
intolerance and persecution. They construct
I'd the negro hobby, jumped aboard, beloved
for freedom and universal liberty, inaugurated
crusade against the South concocted and
setin motion causelcss bloody, Internal frat
ricidal war; broke up the Union; turned one
half Of the country into an " organized hell
with powers of expansion over the other halt,
aud now rejoice in the success of their diabol-
lcal schemes.
