We thought, a little while ago, that Judge Jeffries was a historical fiction ; that Scroggs was impossible. We did not think such a thing could exist. Jeffries is repeated in Philadelphia ; Scroggs is brought back to life in various Northern towns. What a spectacle is that for the Swiss, the German and the Scandinavian who come here ! Do these immigrants love American Slavery } The German, the Swiss, the Scandinavian hate it. I am sorry to say there is one class of men that come here who love i...t ; it is the class most of all sinned against at home. When the Irishman comes to America, he takes ground against the African. I know there are exceptions, and I would go far to honour them ; but the Irish, as a body, oppose the emancipation of the blacks as a body. Every sect that comes from abroad numbers friends of freedom— except the Catholic. Those who call themselves infidels from Germany do not range on the slaveholder's side. I have known some men who take the ghastly and dreadful name of Atheists ; but they said " there is a law higher than the slave- holder's statute.
