In South Carolina, the seats which were
once occupied by Rutledge, Pickens, and
others pure and eloquent, are occupied |
by Moses and his horde of plantation
thieves. who cry "Amen," HAL eluiah,"
GLORY be to God" by way of applaud |
ing the remarks of the speakers, and at |
the same time plunder the State Trea- |
sury to its last dollar, and vote enact |
ments by which the people are oppressed
with taxation, and ground under the
heel of despotism worse than death.
This is the result of ten years rule, and
what will be the result if it is continued
