border. " Bro. Coombe, of the Philadelphia Conference, said--"Dr. Kingsley said that, when the cry of pro-slavery was heard up here, I stood up for the border. Nothing but a sense of duty has led me to do this. There is war at the North, as well as with you at the South."

This thing, then, became to them a necessity. Mr. Hill said, "There is a public sentiment here as well as with you." The war was carried into Africa. They lost because of the Discipline of '56. That very thing was doing bad work. Yet you dream of redress at the hands of these men who base their action on such reasons.--You are dreaming! Suppose you delay. Everything precludes redress. And if you don't put moral principles before property, I pity you. You, know they can't give what you demand. You, by your demands, tie both your hands
