to the conclusion that all wna now done an.l .bat

nothing remained but to enter into the kingdom

re. than a month is ^osc since the immotlal iweu-

ing bnck m-ain in many minds, and lie gloom of

doubt, and almost of despair, to utile down once

This depression in Ihe minds of all who liatoalavery

nnd knoiv that there can be neither pence, victory

or civil liberty for ihe nation, as. long as it is sulleiod

to cumber the earth, arises at tho present ttmi

wo apprehend, from the conjunction of all tho malig-
