us alone we would in time have dealt
with the evil OF slavery considerately'

have freed the negro without drenching
land in blood. and saturating 1t with
a nations tears.
In 1861, the sentiment for abolishing
slavery by just and reasonable process
was gaining ground in the South every
day, and, If the moddlesome aboliionist
had kept out Of the affair. slavery would
have come to an end in due time by
measures that produced no overthrow
OF society, and that would have fitted
the negro for his new state. so that his
liberty would have been a blessing 70
him and his former master But the
Puritan's passion for attending to other
mems affairs was too strong for the abo-
litionist. He must needs thrust his .ntru-
sive hand into the business Of other peo-
pie. and pretty mess he has made Of 1t
one which makes him now exclaim that
the South must either shoot or Te-cnslaye
the negro.
We will do neither. We will 90 on
with that conservative. just course fl
life that IS characteristic OF our people,
and we will work through the unneces-
sary and cruel embaTassmcnts that tho
oficiors aboliuonists have put MS under,
as reasonable. just men work themselves
out Of all difficult situations. We viii
neither shoot the negro nor re-enslavc
lin. but we viii deal with him fairly
| and humanely IN an things, and after
| awhile he will learn that his true friend
! is the white man, near whom he lives
and ne will sever his alliance with his
supposed Northern friends. who can sec
nothing better to do with him than 10

How the negro has been so long hum

They despise him. when he goes amongst
them they treat him as If he were dog.

except to get his vote TO enable them

depressing the great body of the Amer

negroes real friend is the white people
amongst whom he lives. These have
been reared with him; they know him,

maintain all alliance with these aliens
who have no kindly feelings for them

nothing but kind feelings for them? It
Is worth while for them 10 reflect on
