Given these men in power, and the Northern Republic would be the bought, if not the born, thrall of the Davis Dynasty, ready in Cabinet and Congress to do its dirty and demoniac work-ready to catch its runaways — ready to wink at the revival of the African Slave trade — ready to join an alliance against the moral sense of mankind — ready to promote the Secession of the West from the East--re
