Fellow-citiZens, stand the principles embodied

purpose therein declared which Is real purpose
and that something utterly different and there
fore they proceed to attribute to us purposes which We
cherished which positively disagow, and which
they ought TO know utterly absurd. The most i'm
porant Of them are utterly forbidden by the Constitu

American people, ask them to judge us without preJu
dice, without passion and with spirits uninuenced by
wrath and vengeance ask them to judge us as citl-
zens who are sincerely trying do what believe
best for country, and do trust that passion and
prejudice will prevail that shall be judged as we
and not represented, and that the beneb
triumph which will increase tue value Of
Of land the Southern States which will increase the
products OF these States make their people harmonious
black and white and make them live in trustfu
peaceful and fraterna relation than they have hitherto
held toward each other, will be secured trust that
this result will be attained and that generations TO
shall rejoice the inception, the progress and
the triumph of the Liberal cause. lAppiauseI Friends
