tsry Seward Said his creed was this !
II would have no s}ayery in the Unit
ed States, I would have this free
land for all nationalitieass on the face
the globe. To our shores I would
welcome all men who loved liberty
and would enjoy the immunities OF
a free land. Here should thoy live
in peace, protection and plenty. And
would have no rebellion in the land
if l could prevent it or suppress it,
would have the country exclude all
| rebels from its broad domain, and
| would have it extend until there was
no room for them outside Of it on this
continent. In a Hetd, would have a
sort of spider policy, which would ex-
tend itself abroad, take everything
IN, and let nothing get out"
