Now w h a t is an abolitionist ? L iterally and briefly, lie is a m an wlio advocates and labors for t h c aboli tion of hum a n slavery in this country.

T h a t is, they wish th e r e w a s some safe and proper way f o r freedom to come to every hum an being. W e all go a s far a s this, hut those who arc technically know n ns aboli- tionis g o further. T h ey b e lieve it t o he th e ir duty to agitate for t h e im m ediate abolition o f slavery.

Al m o st all o f them are supporting th e governm ent, w h ile secession, horn o f slavery, i s dem o n strating tlio d e v il ish spirit o f th a t institution to he precisely w h a t they h a v e always represented it t o be. T h e abolitionists will b e a r us witness that we have b e e n far e n o u g h from sym p athizing in th e i r peculiar schemes, or th e i r mode of s p e e c h and op e r a tio n ; hut wo beg leave to say that w e can hear n o coupling of th c names of secessionists and.abolitionists, as m e n wlio nre equally guilty in t h e eye of national justice, and equally resposible for th e cvifs o f the p r e s e n t w ar, without auger.
