reting and revering the Bible as consistently anti-Slavery, while refusing, with the former, to vote. 4. A large and steadily increasing class who, though decidedly anti-Slavery, refused either to withhold their votes, or to throw them away on candidates whose election was impossible, but persisted in voting, at nearly every election, so as to effect good and prevent evil to the extent of their power. An artful and persistent ignoring of all distinction between these classes, and thus covering Abolitionists indiscriminately with odium, as hostile to Christianity and to the Constitution, was long the most effective weapon in the armory of their common foes. Thousands, whose consciences and hearts would naturally have drawn them to the side of humanity and justice, were repelled by vociferous representations that to do so would identify them with the disunion of Wendell Phillips, the radicalism of Henry C. Wright, and the infidelity of Pillsbury, Theodore Parker, and Garrison.

made. The people generally are very friendly to the South, but in too many instances I can but think it an interested friendship. They derive great benefit from southern trade, and, undoubtedly, are honest in their sympathy and in their admiration for Confederate valor. A few men can be mentioned who have done a great deal for our cause, and have shown their sympathy in something else besides empty words. Among these are Dr. W. J. Almon, Dr. Slayter, B. Weir & Co., A. Keith, and Mr. Pillsbury, editor of the Journal, who has taken a strong stand in our favor. Dr. Almoh, especially, has done all in his power, and we were indebted to him for many kindly acts. Through his energy we obtained a mast to replace the one lost, and his whole time while we were there seemed devoted to us. I have reason to be very grateful to him, and many other Confederate officers can say the same; for he is never weary of good deeds. A son of Dr. Almon is an esteemed surgeon in our army. The archb
