In a former letter I proplieaied tlie defeat

a few dava will show it Too role of that

But then the North is noi alone to blame.
In year* gone by there win a ait-Mi m-nti *,

tinned for several generations ; and not until
within a few years p.ist lit* the subject
of slavery been looked into narrowIv, and
Ha history ; and claims to exi?t as an insii.

Now. at the South, j on almost look at the
thing in its true light 1 say almost : f..r I
notice that many of your people shudder
w ith holy horror at tho bare mention of re.
opening of the slave trade. If slavery be
right, where is the wroi g of trading in
