Year: 1864

if Mr.. Lincoln's period to the war be the
actual limit, and it only ends by the ''aban-
donment of slavery" that end will make
the war the grandest curse, instead of the
imagined blessing, on both races, black
is philanthropy and true political encono
my The millions Of graves Of miserable
starved, wOrn-Out-wretches, who will crawl
into the ground from the debasement OF
this sudden freedom" with which Mr.
Lincoln insists Oil loading them down, will
be the lasting memorials of the sin of his
party and in the judgment, the dead ne
eroes by myriads will rise up to condemn
him and the false prophets and priest of
the radical religion. Freedom to him who
is unprepared for it is load of chains
The Southern slaves are more free to day
have more liberty, enjoy moro of actual
practic freedom by four fold than they
would if the abolition scheme were accom-
plshed.


''Blt do you desire to perpetuatc slave
ey? BY no manner Of means? The rad
zeal slanderers Of the political school have
been in the habit Of calling every one a
proslayery man who is opposed to the abo-
lition schemes


The wisest and best men in the modern
world have desired to see plan by which
the system of slavery, might bc annihilatcd,
and made more like Il system of free labor.
We have labored for many years with
those men. If God please we will resume
those labors after this mad club of aboli-
tonists has abandoned its folly, because
its managers are convinced Of the utter
lutIlity Of their efforts to benefit the black
man by sudden emancipation. For we
venture the prophecy that this war will
come to IN end at last in the increased
oppression of the black race in this land
We have been content to remain silent
while enthusiasts reioiced over the death
Of slavery ans declared it already accom-
plished. 1t is useless to argue with such
men. But it is as sure as the revolution OF
the snn that the black man is destined to
worse slavery, worse oppression for quar-
ter of a century to come, than he has ever
known in America, and that slavery, SO far
from being dead, has been re-inyigora-
ted and strengthened by the work of abo-
litionists. 1t is Il hard prophecy. But ii
will be. Even if we ovcrrun and conquer
the South, and free every slave, the re
lit accomplished viii riakc him worse
slave III the years to come. @'


The old Union was good enough for Us
slavery in the Southern States notwith-
standing. We would accept peace to day
on the terms Of that old Union. We wonld
give considerable portion of our present
goods and chattlcs, would yield much OF
our rrejuaiccs would iorego many ol oui
preconcciycd ideas, to secure just hat old
Union again


The cry Bipartisan politicians has blind
Cd the eyes of the people. The power
Of slavery" at which the radicals rallied SC
loudly was no more wicked, no more Of i
curse than antislaycry The latter has
proved It's power by plunSing Us into thi>
awful war for the sake Of gaining superb
+ ority over tic former For these power ,
are bus the hold which politicians have
OF crtEc people There IS 70 doubt that
many politicians rode into place and prof
it on the pro slavery power, and there Is
no doubt that as many politicians rode in
to place and profit on the anti-slaycry power
The an;i-slavcry horse is Of no whittier col
or than the other The anti-slavcry pcli-
ticians, by their wholesale plumber, have
proved that they are no pnrer than the
others. The whole cry against the 'slavc
power has been Il deception by which dc
signing politicians seek TO conceal then
own grasping character The Union was
prosperous, it laws were benelicent, the
people were happy, and the slave power
was bought and sold as balance of pow
er party viii always be bought and Sold
1t could make good bargains. Then the
northern traitors organized northern an
ti-sltvcry balance ofpower party, and trade
on that buying and selling, and at length
the two powers had to bid SO high that the
price was blood The nation is paying ii
IN agony and shame.


IT is time to come out Of the hands Of
these soulless politicians. There are wise
men IN the South as well as in the North
who understand these truths. If the poo
+ pie cf the North will annul the political
trades and bargains with abolitionsm by
which politicians now hold power here
and will have Il President on the princi-
pie of the Constitution alone, there are
men enough in the South who remember
the old peace and glory to establish Il party
there for the Union as it was. And the
people are ready for it. The old Union
, shines like star through The battle clouds
Dying soldiers behold it and are calm
f The nation moans and trembles in the ago
, ny Of its cunyulsions, and there will be nC
I end of the torment until the people look
to that rlight-faint indeed now--anC
, distant and inaccessible it sometimes seem.
| but the only light which can give u.
peace. If we resolve to have the Unior
again, we will have it. Who dare say nay!
