This much for Hiincombe. Uut let us look back to the history of this country. So far as the State's of this I nion are chargeaWe with the introduc tion of slaves into thi.^ country the North is guiltier far than the South. It is true th.at the Norilieastern St.itcs abolished slavery years ago, but th(' laws were pro spective ill their operatioti, and thencirroes were principally taken to the SoutJi and sold liy their owners, ainl but few wen; freed in the J'tate'S now boasting free in stitutions. Hut, tf) cap the (dima.x of pha- I'i^aicnl philanthropists, they demand of the South to liberate their .slaves and give them eijual rights with the whites, while tiny refuse even tho.sc who.choose to make Indiana their home an :i,';ylum. If one .^tate ha.s a right to e.x ]ude fret' negroe.s from settling in their midst, it is tair to ]»re.sume that another State has a right to drivi- thetn from its borders. l*eo- pie who preach e|Uaiity should, to be coii- •■^istcnt, receive negrK‘s as tlu ir eipials, po litically and socially. The fact that the free Statori are pa.'-sing stringent hws fo l>ri'\eiit free negroes from living within their borders only proves tlieir philanthro. py lip deep, A writer in the Cicotgiu Seutinel ex presses a wi.'sh that the devil had the South ( arnlina traitjrs.
