Puritan (Ohio, United States) (search for this): article 3
s slavery and the South which is now to expiate their sins. It is more a matter of interest to Northern conservatives than to us whose brows the sacrificial garlands will next adorn, and over whose heads the knife will next be brandished. But if we had put a sword in a madman's hands, to set him upon an enemy, we should not be without some misgivings as to what he might next attempt when that little job was finished. Those religionists at the North who were once the select objects of Puritan malevolence, but who have combined with them in a war of sheer fanaticism, may be sure that the knell of Southern slavery will sound the tocsin for an assault upon their own liberty of conscience; those property-holders who have backed up with their influence and money a crusade upon property of all kinds in the South may discover that their own property is not safe from the hands of men who have been schooled to plunder of every kind in a four years war. It is only upon the immutable found
New England (United States) (search for this): article 3
Supposing that New England fanaticism should succeed in the overthrow of slavery in this country, would it be permanently contented and quiescent? --Would its vocation be gone? Let us imagine that to-morrow the universal African race should stand "redeemed, regenerated and disenthralled," would it satiate the morbid appetite of fanaticism? For a time, as a rich repast appeases the cravings of a hungry dyspeptic, or a stiff glass of grog the longings of a habitual toper; but only fowhat will remain here to tempt the palate of excited imaginations and vindictive hate? These questions are not without interest to those conservative classes in the North who have been beguiled by their idolatry of the Union into a war of New England fanaticism. They vainly imagined that by enlisting in the crusade of coercion they were subserving the interests of stability, order and permanent peace and security. But these cardinal objects of good government are not to be gained by plac

h will bring to them from vassalage and degradation. Sleeping in soldiers' graves, but without a stain upon their shields, immortal in history and song, liberated forever from human malice and rancor, they may bless the sharp steel that saves them from the living death of shame and subjugation. But if they fall, they will fall like Samson, dragging down with them the pillars of the Philistine temple. Their grave will be the grave of the prosperity and the liberties of their enemies. Their enemies may appropriate their sunny land, but it will only be a Jamaica or St. Domingo. Fanaticism, having worked its work of ruin here, will then turn upon the North and breed social, religious and political convulsions there that will ultimately compel a military despotism. The Puritans will not always be permitted, even in the Northern States, to give the law in politics and morals; and at their own doors the tide of blood, ebbing from the South, will yet crimson every Northern household.
Patrick Henry (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 3
sh, we shall neither perish alone nor unavenged. The fair plantations of the South, once the abodes of a cultivated and happy people, may gladden the eye of fanaticism with the spectacle of universal desolation; the productive industry, which supplied the commerce and manufactories of the world, may be helplessly paralyzed; hordes of negro barbarians may bask in the sun of our deserted fields, and the original possessors, the race which produced Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Marshall, Patrick Henry, and which has conducted this war of independence with a heroism that has amazed the world, may sleep in bloody graves. But better thus to sleep than to survive and behold the sad spectacle which will succeed their downfall.--Freedom to the negro will be no such freedom as death will bring to them from vassalage and degradation.
