A weekly issue published by the Anti-Slavery Society with notices and social reform commentary from the N W corner of Main and streets in Cincinnati Ohio.
A lengthy critique argues that slaveholding is Scripturally endorsed, denounces abolitionists, and attacks democratic self-government as atheistic mob rule. It cites Rev. Breckenridge, Judge Fox, and Professor Hodge while challenging Northern abolition and defending the South’s slave system as divine right.
A long address delivered to the Female Anti-Slavery Society of Cincinnati discusses slavery as a moral evil against Christian principles. It quotes figures like Washington and Lafayette, notes petitions for abolition, and urges reform despite opposition and prejudice.
