Creator OF heaven and earth abdlcated his IN

thunderbolt at once. does the Almighty de-
sign for them an infinitely greater punish

time can only determine the matter. We
only know that they deserve death. utter an.
Initiation from the fair earth they have dis
figured with their crimes and polluted with
their hthy and unpronounceable sins. Thirty
years ago, when they first proposed their
monstrous and Atheist; Idea the in.
stincts of the people were so outraged. that
they would have extermnated them from the
land, had not the police interfered. Ignorant
people fancy this was prejudice" but the
| instinct that prompted Dan. Sckles, Capt
Rynders and others, to lynch Garrison and
his gang, was planted in their hearts by the
Almighty Creator, and they only obeyed His
will when they sought to annihilate these in
]
by their presence. 1t was the instinct of
preservation, imperative, all pervading,
overwhelming, written by the finger Of God
Himself in their organization, the absolute
proof of which is now apparent, or should be
apparent to all thinking men. Had Dan
Sickles, Capt. Rynders and others, who,
thirty years ago, sought to exterminate Gar
rlson and his crew, succeeded, had they, on
a certain day massacred every abolitionist on
American soil, this sublime manifestation OF
popular justice would have saved the country
million of lives and ten thousand millions
OF property What an awful truth to con
slder-a truth that no sane man in all this
broad hand will dare to question. Had there
been no abolition party there would have
been no Abraham Lincoln. no sectional COM
binatlon OF States to usurp the government,
no secession TO escape that combination. no
war or conflict whatever, and the whole Am.
erican people would now be rejoicing in
peace and prosperity.
Did they deserve determination Of course
they did, just as pestlence the small pox,
any and all things that conflict with the laws
of life or that threaten the self preservation
of the people. Here were white men and.
negroes, both human, of course. but widely
different human beings, having different ma.
lures and different wants. and thereto de-
signed by the A lmighty Creator for different
&c 'nditions, uses and duties. These foul and
Atheistic wretches propose to " abolish" the
design of the Creator, and force wines and
negroes to amalgamate together, Just as we
do with varieties or nationaities of our own
species! lhe whole organic nature shrinks
from this monstrous sin. and since the world
began, no such sentiment as sexual love ever
occurred between whites and negroes. But
Garrison 4 Co. proposed that they should so
associate on equal terms, 80 debauch their in
stincts by " equal rights" So. in short, de-
grade themselves into the same condition,
that at least all the instincts God gave them
should be utterly lost, and thew would then
mate and marry together! If this were pos,
slble, 1t, for example, a thousand abolitionists
were to practice this belief, and mate and
mngle their blood with as many negroes,
within given period, certa My in less than
hundred years, they would rot out and ut
terly perish from the EARTH polluted by their
sins against God and their own nature. The
proposal of Garrison. thereto.e, was death.
absolute extinction. and death the most mon
strous, polluting and beastial that even devils
themselves could contrive, as it were better,
infinitely better, to perish at ouce rather than
abolition of slavery, -" imuartial freedom. -
mulattoism and final extinction. The in
stinct of the people to exterminate Garrison
and his filthy gang was, therefore, the in
stinct of self preservation, the inherent. all
pervading law of vital necessity. that impels
us to destroy all noxious and abnormal forces
that tend to our destruction whether it be>
yellow fever or small pox, mad dogs or aboli

We would appeal to reason. and show the
people that they should confine these aboii,
ton madmen in prisons, and put them through
a course of treatment that should cure them
ot their monstrous and ahhorrent crimes

natural instincts of the masses, obey the law
