Rational pricciplc within him will feel

ought, to, bo govCindi-bound to their
duties and at th fame time be under
government protection, and have unin
terrupted access to tho proper aulhoi-t-ties
to seek redress in case of need. No
doubt thcrB are very many hum.iiic slave
owners, but, it is well known, they nre
not a .so(son.c je scarcely huwian)
bcnco,it U that tbo, public, niarts of the
seuihern States very much resemble, on
ly more so, tho of Turkey, and o'.hur
heathen nations who trudo in huiuun
lite,! The fact is thnt tho negro is look
ad upon by some as the farmer looks up
on his stock, without distinguUhing that
tho one is Cnpuble of becoming morally
responsible, and the other is not. Tho
negro is evidently adapted fr nothing
but servitude, but they ought to be, in
nil caei, used as. human beings.
Should the Southern States secede,
the probability is, that th?y will eventu
ally return to the Union one by one, anJ
adopt free instead of slave labor, njd
thus slavery will die out of the land.
There will be grtat danger if the
southern Slates should sever themselves
from the Union, that the sable rae wiil
feel that they have an advantage in tho
movement, as they wonid not have so
grijiit a power to contend with, and tuny
rise In revolution, make f .wrfal h if oe
and perhaps free themselves &uo'u an
occurrence is uot altogether iinpos.'i'ole
It is hoped ly every one who wishes well
to his coui.iry that such a calamity even
as disunion may be averted, much more
that un intextiuc war may never take
place, and that the peace of the nation,
instead of being only patched up for the
present emergency, may be Cimly foun
ded on the immoveable basis of integrity
and truth. ,. ;.
Though these .are trying times, yet,
dcuh(lcs the oi deal will prova benefici

spirit (f tho nation will bo -called into
