selves against it.Brethren of the North! you are misin- i formed upon the subject of slavery. It is i not the hellish evil you have been taught to;I believe it. Visit the South and you will see it. You have been misinformed, too, in regard to the Southern people. They are kind, loving, and generous to a fault. They are! d tbrave, true to their friends, and, as Masons, God never made better !Brethren of the South! you are misinformed as to the general feeling of the Northern people relative to slavery. Whatever it may be in some localities, ridden to death by demagogues, yet, in the broad lands of the North and West, and even in Canada, the popular sentiment is to let the subject alone, and leave it with those who are personally interested with it. You are misinformed, too, as to the Northern people. They are studious, industrious, lovers of order and of law, liberal ^ in a good cause, earnest in whatever tliey|l undertake, and, as Masous, conservative and systematic in the highest degree.Brethren of both sections! there is absolutely nothing between you but to love one another, and to persever® in the grand design of doing good and being happy. Let dema gogues rail and lie in vain. Treat all their threats of secession, of opposition to law, of raids into neighboring vineyards, of nullification, c., with contempt and abhorrence disregard their stateineuts that the American,epeople are ripe for disunion as a direct inveo-j fiou di the fa:her dl lies. AuaTkef faisett owl was never invented. Search for sober, law abiding men, conservative in their habits ot thinking and action, and entrust to such the banner of all good Masons—“Union first— Union last—Union forever!!”r!I;i:rt\I;tt1i
