Hence foe propriety and Necess of discussion. Secondly you say a the remedy proposed would he worse than foe evils of slavery.the enemies of Almos every Reform Aie wont to urge this . Rul we to see., that in foe present Case experience has put the question beyond a doubt and even in reference to temporal .evil,5, those can nyc ted with slavery Are id most infinitely greater than those which have Fol Jawed emancipation. But what shall we say when we take into the account foe Eternod All shall receive Accordi to the dec is done in and a the Snail hafe judg Raeisi without mercy that showed you chose to make what Yon called a practical illustration n of this Point Viz Lorenzo had built Mill dam which overflowed his neighbors farms. Ura Foer Foan ingenious reason those few arguments which you allowed me to offer. As i supposed that any Good cause could be supported by fair Means 1 became foe More convinced that your a cause was m Njust by them eans w Bich you employed to support it i shall now attempt a review of foe reasons you offered Why i should not meddle with foe subject of volition. First you say a it is causing great excitement and agitation in the Church and Community causing division party spirit amp cd let me ask you if this is a sufficient reason for abandoning one object m a it not be for abandoning any or every object what important Enterprise was Ever carried on. That did not produce excitement just in proportion to foe importance of foe object to be accomplished did not the course pursued by Moses and Aaron produce a excite ment even cause foe task masters to increase the burdens Laid on the israelite yet what was foe course advised by the All w ise god was it p Ropos de. By so eth Era slave holders and their bettors Here in the North no the lord said a i have surely seen foe Ami Ctm of my people Mil am come Down to deliver them out of the hand of the the deliverance of foe israelite from Captivity in Babylon caused excitement cd work was great t and Justice and mercy acquired it and the Gates of hell could not prevail against it the Reform a Tion under Lefoer caused excitement and foe same objections were raised by anti reformers which Are now raised by anti yet Foo Sands they prosecuted him and made him pay damages he was Orde red to . It of ii wife and w As. Exposed to new judgments daily while he neglected it. He removed it and foe water overflowed some farms below. He again was prosecuted and Mie to pay damages. A this parable see to re for Only to temporal calamities and therefore must be sniper oct. But which was the safer course a to retain the dam and thus expose himself to judgments continually or remove it and expose himself to one judgment a to cum Chow. The r. It appears foe Man referred to Only acted when compelled by his own interest. He was not moved by Prin Cip inc or mercy to Bis fellow men Tai Etc he had no claim to mercy or even to Justice. Which was the greater injustice to deprive his neighbors above of foe use of foe if farms entirely or Subj to those below to the inconvenience of having theirs washed by a Smrdl inundation you can apply this to foe Case in hand. This objection has been used by Many of foe apologists for Sla try and As often. were by abolitionist. 1 was surprised to hear your raise it calling it an a insuperable objection a 1 had supposed that you would Vic w the subject in a different Light remembering that we Are in foe hand of that god fio says a be be merciful As your father in heaven is a blessed Are 4he merciful for they shall obtain mercy a and a in keeping his com a.Mande tote there is great imaginary consequences Are a new Standard o duty yet strange As it May Teera this Standard finds advocates among Christian minis ters. Of foe nineteenth Century. If the word of Glt were taken As Only Rule of Faith an d. Prac.,., this objection would never have been raised. This sacred Chart represents it As our duty to do justly love mercy and w Alk Hii Fol Bly before god. It and his , and we Are Quot blessed w Ifo his example. If Jim inca Tigjo i Yah stand w you by. Saying Foat of i go on As i have done foe Church will Lay hand on me. Is foe about to take cognizance of my to Itic Al Prince Plesz. If not i do not see foe Force of your argument.

Your argument is opposed to the real design of scripture w o uld Leav c Man to such Laws As he leases while foe scriptures ban do nothing but Tell Hon to a be subject to the Powers that a . Arg led Liat a the seem to approve and not condemn Here let me notice that you acknowledged slavery to be a so a great sin an evil a the greatest evil m the uni states.

This notice May be necessary to enable your readers to know the author of some remarkable pieces in foe editorial of foe a observer a As or. Racy a name does not appear on the paper As editor. The pieces respect affairs at Alton. A the a a observer docs not say or. Lovejoy or Liis friends were guilty of foe crime of exciting a riot be does not say that Rev.

But he does say in this connexion and As bearing on the Lovejoy Case a that it is not Safe to abstain from blaming foe seducer lest we be accused of apologising for the seduced a and he argues the whole Case from analogies in which foe sufferers by the Alton mob Are grog-sfersii1�il empt Bieu to drunkenness though the observer does not affirm that Lovejoy or his friends were foe instigators of riot and murder. When the a a observer says a nor can we i�?i7-infiame foe Public or any part of the pubic with rage any More than with lust or wine and be innocent a after informing us that he does Felt mean to a answer foe question directly a whether Lovejoy did right or wrong in staying and dying As he did what does he mean his readers shall understand the facts were All before him in the Alton Case Why does he not like a Man if not like a minister Wil us plainly what a a a a does old respecting Lovejoy if he believe him and Lis friends guilty of instigation of riot and murder w by does he not say so in terms it we re a thousand times More honorable though it must , proportionally less in.
