Of tin-so miscreant* of misrule, American
root, aiid-hrmich Abolitionists arc lineal offspring;
with ihf same defiaitcw of (?od Almighty, the
funic hatred of the Christian ie!ii*ioii and their
neighbors, the same delight in robla-ry and ppoli aliuu*.

which their njje of reason substitutes hell-fixed

our Eastern have contrived i? foment haired between

in union, still lluit abomination is by on
means so desperate or dangerous us t he hatred
of oilier united people ? English and Irish for

Hungarians and Croatian*, in the (ierinau
union, l'olrs and Russians in their union, mid
liardly greater than thai of the ( eucnns and
Alsaciaus in France, who, though they cannot
understand each otlur'a language, yet are held
together hy wonderful conceiitralion of patriotic
loyalty to the same country.
Republican luyn'ty founded on consent and
.content is so tnucll stronger than mechanical al
legiauce controlled by force and compulsion,
that no jeopardy has befallen American union,
which, on the contrary, is corroborated by every
? train. We see now a South Carolina Senator,
with n thousand negro slaves, clinging to the
union upheld against abolition, with intense attachment
; and that stti yeucris monster, John
Brown, is almost, if not quite, the only Ameri
can traitor ever ex-out ed. Si nee Liberty and
Slavery were u> iled in this llepnhlic by nature,
. hy territories, by filers West and seas F.asi, h\
lnn?Ml(if;e, lineage anil other indissoluble lies. All
oliriouists flatter liimiselvM, with false unction
laid lo heart when they think they can disiiiem
her such a union. After the present Brown temporary
huhliuh pneaes uway, as it ><oi>ii will, the
chief result of Brown's treason will be the elec
tion next year of ft Unionist for President,
strongly pronounced njoiinst abolition beyond ull
doubt, by a lartre inajoiity. No fuiurt: event
can be morn certain.
For Brown has been the only genuine heroic
Abolitionist that has appeared. Where railing
at slavery from a distance is like (logs ha\ing at
the moon. Sincere, earnest and determined Ati
olitiunists would like Brown march right upon
the negro quarter?, storm them, and covet martyrdom,
however inevitable. Preaching, pray.
* ?ng and lectmiug at a distance where there is nu
?l?tery, howling homilies over that iimrij-r's carcass
nfter h>* was hanged, all such coarse sentimen'ality,
either prelactory or posthumous, is
#hepr nonsense of Abolition. [<eeturing Abolition
at twenty-five cents a ticket, or preaching
it on a salary of so much a year, may feed and
perhaps celebrate the play actors of modern
Bppciacles, caricatures of Uomnu pnuent el cir
ren*n for the entertainment of chambermaids,
" fiddlers and other rubble. But hundreds of
