Thia impiesBJon malies them rustless ai;d discontented: renders our homes, our wives, and our children unsafe. Surely no rational man expects us to live with such a utate of things in our midst. We cannot; we will not. " 1 can understand this ; I can imagine something of the horrors of life when servileicar hangs over one's State, one's family, one's self.

Surely tliis was not occa- sioned by the " licentiousness of the press " spoken of in the report of the committee ; for slaves do not read, and if they did, the whole South is as hermetically sealed against the northern press as the Barbary States ever were.
