UNIVERSAL LIBERTY.

So, now, in this crisis of the
fate of liberty, if any of the re-
nowned men of this nation
should betray her cause, it were
better that he had been I'M
known to fame. 1t need not be
hoped that the brightness of
their past glory will dazzle the
eyes of posteiity. or iIlumine the
pages Of impartial history. \
few of its rays may still! linger
on fading sky. but they will
very soon be wheimed in dark
ness. for unless progressive
civilization and the increasing
love of freedom throughout the
Christian and civilized world
are fallacies the sun Of liberty,
of universal liberty. is already
above the horizon and fast cours-
ing to his meridian splendor,
where no advocate of slavery. no
apologist of slavery, can look
upon his face and live.-Thad-

why scoid the British? IT'S fool
