Atlanta and her Commerce.
As a commercial depot, we have indisputa
ble evidence that Atlanta is not less tiian
second in importance to Savannah; indeed, iu
some respects, it is the best market in the State.
When we consider Atlanta’s railroad facilities
of communication with the Southern and West
ern States, we need not be surprised that our
City can sell meats, breadstufli, and domestic
liquors, cheaper than enn be bought in any oth
er Southern market Even in our Dry Goods
operations we aro not to be disregarded, for,
by our Railroad advantages we are in speedy
connexion with all the Northern markets. and
(Yom this grand cause (which no other South
ern City enjoys) Atlanta can sell at wholesale
or retail cheaper than any other Southern mar
ket. We have in onr city many wholesale deal
ers in dry goods, groceries, hardware, books
and stationery—who can make as easy term'
with country merchants as can oe obtained in
' Philadelphia. New York, Baltimore, or Bos
ton, freight added. We hope that country
dealers will turn their patronage to our city
hy such a diversion of trade they would save
heavy risks. increased freights, and much econ
omy of time.

Kansas and the South.
Tho following Sensible remarks we find in an
exchange paper, without any credit No mat
ter what their source, the views are sound and
force themselves upon the attention of Soitth:
ern men, and we never saw anything we adopt
ed inure heartily.
“If Kansas, is nbolhiuntzed, Missuuri ceases i
to be a stave State, and New Mexico becomes!
a free State, Culiibruta remains a free State;'
but if we secure Kansas us a slave State, Mis
souri is secure, New AlexicouudSoutiiern Cal
ifornia, if uot all of it becomes a slave State; j
in a. word, the prosperity or the ruin of the;
whole South depends on the Kansas struggle.'’!
"The above extract from the Hou. D. It. At-;
cbisou’s letter to the King's Mountain Commit- j
tec is worthy of the serious consideration of the ;
people of the South. Mr. Atchisou has long!
been most honorably identified with the cause ’
of the South, mid, as a'Missourian, and a sa
gacious statesman, is well fitted to judge of the
issues involved in the Kansas struggle. His
warning, therefore, should be heeded by South
ern men—and what is more important, it
should arouse them to action. No •tjius'erly;
inactivity' will answer in this emergency. No I
hesitating counsel* will avail ns. Southerners 1
must be tip aud doing. We must £-nd men and !
money to Kansas—must reinforoe Atchison and J
his "border rulitaus ' —must thwart the designs-;
of Reeder and hie Freesoil adherents.
Now, let us not be misunderstood. We ad- •
vise no resort to violate measures—no appeal'
to arms, but we do contend that by every peace- 1
fnl and legitimate means, we should seek to ee-'
cure Kansas to the South. This territory is
now falcngured by agents and representatives
of Freesuiiism; and be it remembered, theirs!
is no "spectral boat "—no -army of the dead” l
—but an active, living band, aud animated by
a spirit of direct hostility to the South and her
institutions. Is it, then, hazardous in bur re
! maiiring indifferent spectators of tire struggle
lin Kansas ?—nay, it is not even criminal * If,
’ ns Atchison says, and the state of the case
leads us to believe, -the prosperity or nun of
the whole South depends on the Kansas strug

■ affair, and send to the contested field, at k-ast
j that aid contained in Southern sentiment and
' Southern muscle ?"

against Mexico as unprovoked, unholy and un

in whose hearts has been developed a profound

the protection of American liberty. Johu P.

Franklin Pierce, who stan's pledged to defend

Houston, of Texas, and Bell, of Tennessee,

Douglas, of Illinois, to whose enlarged patriot
ism we owe it that Southern institutions are
no longer .under the ban of congressional legis
lation, in manifest violation oi the spirit aud
letter of the Constitution. The three thousand
and fifty Protestant clergymen of New Eqgland,
who, in the name of Almighty God, aud in
His presence protest against, the Kansas-Ne
buteka bill as a breach of the public faith, and
violation of a national compact, are Americans;
but not so are the Homan Catholic priests in
that section, who unauimously refused to ap
pend their names to the infameus remonstrance
—to which refusal is uudonbtculy to be attrib
uted the crusade which northern fanatics have
since been preaching against, the Catholic reli
gion, and iu which even Southern men have
been insane enough to j .in.
What say you, people of Mississippi, to all
this strange misapplication of terms and mon
strous perversion of Ideas? Democrats-arc al

most—the foulness of the calumny, or the ab

Frcm, the Savannah Georgian..
! ‘Tlie Great National Shooting
Match”--Georgia and Kentucky.
Mr. William King, (the competitor of Blau
don Duncan, Esq., of Louisville-. Kentucky.)
arrived in this city Saturday morning, by the
State of Georgia from Phiiadeiphia. We are
happy to inform our Georgia friends that an
other great match is about coming off' for
$4.0,000 a side, at 100 double shots each, pigeons
from the trap, twenty-ote yards rise and one
hundred yards bounds as before. The last
match shot at Cincinnati was seventy-five
double shots, viz: two birds let loose. at once.
Messrs. King und Duuean intended shooting a
home-and-home match, but from the fact of the
one just passed one bird being decided iu favor
of the Kentucky gentleman, and accidentally
Mr. King having injured his middle finger
i through the guard striking it at each reeoiL—
I his friends are desirous to shoot thia next mutch
at the home of Mr. Duncan (Louisville, Ken
tucky,) and should Mr. King prove the winner,
I the return match lor 810,00 U u side to be shot
i in Georgia, either at Savannah or Augusta, as
i the friends of Mr. King may think proper. It
i may be unnecessary to state that the greatest
, interest is felt as to the result of this coming
! event, from the hitherto unknown closeness of
i the late contest, ami its being the greatest shobt
-1 ing match, ever heard of-together with the na
' tional and State pride of each particular chain-1
I pion, the whole Union will speculate largely on I
I this great contest. Many thousands will 'wit-;
; uess tna match, and very many thousands spec- j
, nlated on it; the last match having been copied |
• in many papers of every State, interest wHI be i
I taken by those unknown to either gentleman I
i and nneouueeted by either State.
Mr. Duncan, it seems, has never been beaten ,
; but once; neitha - has Mr. King, with his own
i gun, (even if this last match be termed a defeat.)
! But we opine that Duncan has never before
I met the shot he finds in King. He remarked
at the cotieiitsion of the match—“that he be
i lieved Mr. King could beat any man in Ameri
;eu “but himself.' Mr. King will cheerfully
' aivurd him the palm of victory if he wins tlie
i coming contest. Mr. King is in the best health
! and excellent spirits. The match will be shot

An Incident Worth Recording.
We k-arn from a friend who was present at
the Democratic County meeting at Denton, on
Tuesday last, that the Whigs, who were hold
ing a meeting at the same time in another part
,of the town, passed a resolution to join the.
Democratic party, and vote the Democratic tick
et at the November election: after which they
formed into procession, and marched en masse.
and with colors flying, towards the place where
tha Democrats were holding their meeting.—
Wlien they had nearly reachal the sjiot over
which the'Democratic Sag was floating on the
breeze, their spokesman advanced, and, in sub
stance, said. “Gentlemen we wish to join the
Democratic party, and hereafterto battle under
the glorious banner of Democracy ' Will you
receive us?” 1 A deafening shout imme
diately burst from the Democratic ranks, a?'
they exclaimed. “We will! We will Which
was succeeiled by cheering that might have been
heard for miles around, and other exhibitions of
the wildest joy. The Whigs then advanced un
der the flag, took off their hate, and gave three
hearty cheers. Then such shaking of hands,
such congratulation., such shouting, and other
exhibitions of rejoicing were never before wit
nessed in the country.
After the excitement had somewhat subsided
the new-made Democrats gave their promise to
vote the Democratic ticket at tlie ext election
and the meeting, after transacting the usual
business and listening to some able addresses,
one of which was delivered hy tho orator of the
Whig meeting, adjourned under the happiest
auspices.
This is but ono incident, but it exhibits in a
true light, the feeling now prevailing in the
Whig ranks over the whole country. We read
in the Maryland papers numerous instaners of
tho Whigs uniting on the same platform, with
the Democracy, to overthrow the insidious aud
hideous monster Know Notbingiam, so digusted
have they become with its iniquities.— Dover

Important Decision to Steam
boatmen.
On Wednesday morning (24th inst) in the
United States District Court, in session at St.
Louis, Judge Wells delivered an opinion in the
case of the Memphis Insurance Company, vcistix
Oliver Garrison and Dan. R. Garrison, which is
of considerable importance to steamboat owners
aud merchants. The following is a statement
of the case the decision, viz :
In the year 1949, a large amount of. cotton,
three hundred and eighty bales, valued at $16,-
000, was shipped at Memphis and other points
in Tennessee,for New Oreana, on the steam
boat -“Convoy, *’ of which the boat the defend
ant were owners.
A bill of lading was given by the boat,
under which the cotton was to be carried and
delivered— “dangers of river only expected."
The boat and cargo with it, in the month of
February, were destroyed by fire, which it was
admitted did not arise from any fault of the
•master, crew, agent, or owners of the boat.
The Memphis Insurance Company had insur
ed the Cotton against "loss by fire." They paid
the loss aud brought this suit against the own
ers of the boat to recover the value of tho cot
ton, claiming to be equitably subrogated, or en
titled to all the lights of the original owners of
such cotton
The Court held :
Ist. That the complainants were entitled to
sue in equity, to recover, if the defendants were
Ijable.
2. That the exception in the bill of lading < f
“dangers of the river only,” did not include fire
—tire was not a danger of the river, within the
meauiug of the bill of lading, through it did not
proceed from any fault or negligence of those
managing the boat. A decree was accordingly
rendered against defendants for the value of the
the cotton.
This decision is highly important to onr com
mercial people generally, and will occasion
much conunent upon the steamboat owners and
others, North and South. The ease hangs
upon a very nice point, and perhaps a majority
will not be willing to admit the distinction made
between dangers of the river and dangers on the
river.
The question will, donbtless, be carried to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The Constitution.
Never, perhaps, since its adoption, has the
Constitution of the United States, its princi
ples, its latitude and its limits, been so thor
oughly discussed, as since the rise of the secret
party of Know Nothings. When the new in
strument, the political Gospel, the glad tidings
of freedom, and the assurance of its continu
ance and spread, had been finally settled upon
by the Convention, and sent forth with the sig
nature of Washington and his compeers, it was
to the people- of the several States a question of
the utmost moment and the most absorbing in
terest, whether or not they should accept of its
conditions and avail themselves of its protec
tions. Since then, its numerous requirements
have been much discussed, iu, as well as out ol
Congress. But never since, until the last 12
mouths, have the whole people turned their
thoughts to a careful and deep study of its prin
ciples—never have they been so cal.ed upon to
examine the ground upon which their libert.ee
are planted —never have they been so ready tn
turn their thoughts to the deed of their rights,
the solemn act by which their lifartiea are as
sured to them as now. Startling theories, new
aud alarming doctrines are taught, aud, as if
with one accord, all measure them with that
true standard, that immortal aud sacred instru
ment which is duar to tlie heart of every true
patriot, whatever may be his party creed. Let
politician* play what pranks they please—let
rabid demagogues ride tbeir hobbies to the
verge of treason with the rabble of fanatic* at
them tax so ct the most absurd of Saws bepus
—ltt legislative folly riot over reason aud
common sense, but as long as our glorious Con
stitutiou remains in tact, we may feel secure,
and bid defiance to all the powers of fanaticism
combined —A’. O. Courier.
Rrxxovxcikg the Abolitiox Know Noth
ing Cause.—We have just learned of the with
drawal from the Know Nothing order of sever
al prominent gentlemen of our State, and tbeir
determination to expose and denounce the ten
dency of the organization, and to give their
support to the whole Democratic ticket. These
geutktaen have just returned from the North,
where, as members of the lodges, they found
these lodges the very hotbeds of Abolitionism
aud enmity to the South and the Constitution,
and they come home to renounce their connec
tion with such a party, and to go henceforth
with the Democracy for the Constitution and
the Union.
This ia the cheering news from every quarter.

Some of the episodes encountered during Dr.
Kane’s search, have wild tbeinterest. At one time
it became necessary to send a fatigue party with
provisions, to awist the main party under Dr.
Kaue, in an attempted passage across Smith’.i
Sound. This party was under the command of
Mr. Brooks, first officer of theexpeditien. He
was accompanied by Mr. Wilson and other vol
unteers. During their travel they found the ice
completely impenetrable, and a snow drift at
last swept wildly over the floes, and iu the msdst
of a heavy gale from the north, the thermome
ter, to their dismay, sunk to iifty-sevisi degrees
below zero. Human nature coukl not support
;tfie terrible cold. Four of the party, incfaaiiig
Mr- Jlrooks aud Mr. Wilson, were prostrated
wffii frozen feet, and with great difficulty three
of.theii companions, after encountering great
sufferings reached the ship aud announced tlie
condition of their comrades.
Their chances of Wring rescued seemed ex -
tremely small. They were in the midst of a
wilderness of snow, incapable of motion, protec
ted only by 1 canvas tent, aud with no land
marksby which their position could be known, i
Even to drag these maimed ine.n would have i
been, under ordinary circumstamce, e. work of j
difficulty, but to the slender party left at the;
ship, it seemsd to be impossible. Dr. Kane
bolduess and courage which ju t’,lied tlie !
warm attachment felt towards him by nil under
his command, iu less than one hour organized
a rescuing party, leaving on board only those
who were necessaiy to relieve the sick, and
started off in the teeth of a ten ible gale, steer
ing by compuas to rescue the sufferers. After*
nineteen hours’ constant travel, during., ts hich
two of the party tainted, and others requited to
be kept from sleep by force, they struck the trail!
of the lost party, and final y, staggering under !
their burdens, one by one reacfi>sl the tent, which
was almost hidden by the snow.
The scene as Dr. Kane entered tlie tent was
affecting beyond description. The parly burst
out into tears. A blubber fire was immediately
built, pemmican cooked, aud the party ate for
the first time after leaving the vessel. Ice was
also melted’, they having been to this time with
out drink. Worn out as they were, but four
hours were allowed for the halt. The maimed
of the frozen party were sewed up io buffalo
robes, placed on sledges aud dragged along by |
their companions, Dr. Kane walking in advance
picking the track. Cold of the utmost sc verity
again overtook them. Bonsall aud Morton,
aud ev n the Esquimaux boy, Hence, sunk up
on the snow with sleep. It was only by force
that they were aroused and made to proceed,
as the cold seemed to have destroyed all con
ception of danger. A large bear met ou their
way, was fortunatly scared off’ by Dr. Kane, by
the simple waving of his hand. They reached
the ship ofter a walk of sixty two hoars, still
dragging their companions behind them but
lose eible.
Dr Hayes, the intelligent surgeon of the ship
from whom we obtained the particulars of this
fearful adventure, received the returning party.
Two of the number dial of their injuries, and
two others underwent amputation’ who are now
restored to perfect health. The condition ol
tliose who dragged the sick was most lamenta
ble. Their memory for a time was entirely
gone, and the ship,'in the midst of muttering
aelerium, resembled an hospital. The surgeon
and one remaining attendant was in sole charge
of the ship, In this state of semi-madness the
sick remained for two or three days, but ul'ter
wards they entirely recovered,' aud tho party
under Mr. Kaue started three weeks afterwards
aud resumed their labors in the field.
Interpidity like this has never been surpassed.
It is spoken of with emotion, even now. by the
stoutest hearts of the expedition.

a man with the fire of youth still burning in
his veins must be obtainwl. General Simpson
cannot even write a decent dispatch, or relate
truthfully the details of a battle.
Flow should he be aware of the scenes enacted
in the Redan? “He sat in, a trench with his
nose and eyes just facing tlie cold atid dust, and
his cloak drawn up over his head to protect him
against both.” He makes arrangements which
cause every one to exclaim, “This is another
18th of June;” he chooses the assaulting column
from the Second and Light Division, for the
preposterous reason that they hivl been so often
and so desperately engaged; and when the mo
ment is come that these regiments, consisting
of raw lads, and with hardly one man in twenty
who had fought at the alms, are to advance to
the deadly contest, ho is content to go and sit
motionless in a ditch. An unsupported Colonel
lights the battle.
And the Times proceeds:
•■There can be no doubt of the discontent and
anger which resgn among the troops. Officers
and inen have lost all confidence in their cheif and
the only difference is that tlie private proclaims
his opinion with more open vehemence. The
incapable commander, who has brought on Eng
land this last disaster, cannot force his soldiers
to look with envy on those gallant deeds of their
ally, to which their own defeat serves as a foil,
but he can oppress them with feelings of deep
humiliation, of bitter resentment, of hopeless
despondency. As long as he shall lead them,
there will be the correction that tho day of bat

A Strange Affair.—The Memphis Eagle
and Enquirer of the 19th inst., says : Mr. and
Mrs. Owens the parents of seven childern, died,
night before last in South Memphis. Yesterday
evening these childern were removal from the
house where their parents died to another, in a
different part of the city. The house was reg
ularly rented from the proprietor, and a month's
rent paid iu advance. But last night, the neigh
bors of that vicinity, collected together to the
number of about titty, and drove the childern
out of the house and back to South Memphis,
because their lamented parents died of yellow
fever. Such are the facts of this ‘strange affair,’
as they were reported to u: last night by res
ponsibie gentlemen residing in South Memphis.
A simple statement of them is enough without
comment. Alter our informants left the office,
we were unable to recall the precise locality
where this new instance of ‘man's inhumanity
to man’ occurred, but we believe it was some
where ou Market street.”
A Bear Dodge.—lt issaid that certain Wall
street bears; who speculate in calamities, are in
the habit of going around among the targe
‘stock houses’ in the early part of the day be
speaking large loans which they will call for in
an hour or two. Just before three o'clock, they
•go around again to notify the lender tlmt they
can get along without the money, but are wil
ringto pay a day’s interest on it. Os course
this locks up a targe sum from other parties who
would like to borrow; aud compels them to sell
stock for cash at a low figure, just before three
o’clock, or break. This is one of the ‘bear’
tricks to depress price* and increase the panic.
We shall have to employ a Wall street editor
to show up tiiese ‘operators' in the .Mirror, if we
can find a'man invulnerably honest, and ‘bomb

Free Love in Cincinnati.— It i* reported

far rumor lias magnified their success in the
Queen City, we have no means of determination,
but the advent of several of the leaders of the

From the Louisville Times,
The Independence or the South.
We are no sectionalista. We love the Union
of the States, and hope tolhe last hour of our
livca to be found advocating the Union—a con
stitutional Union. But, as tho Abolition fac
tions of the North are continually harping up
on the inability of the Southern States to main
tain a separate existence, it may not be im
proper to present a few facte, if for no other
purpr sc than to show to these cnemiea to the
best interests of the country, that there ia a
South as well as a North, and that the interests
of the Southern States are identical; and. if it
comes to the worst, they are amply able to take
care of themselves. The South is conscious of
her importance, and that they are well united
the Abolitionists of the North may rest assured
No assertion can be better sustained by indis
putable testimony, than that the political inter
ests of the slave States are identical. The
measure that would endanger the eecurity of
one could not fail to be felt by all. Os this
fact they are perfectly aware; and in view of
this peculiar condition they are steadily engaged
in tightening the ties which bind them together.
They are determined to be prepared for any
eventuality which may be contemplated beyond
their geographical limits for impairing the com
promises of the Constitution. Nor arc their
material or pecuniary interests in any respect
hostile. On the contrary they are in harmoni
ous co-operation, and will l>e more dissolubly
blend id as soon as their public works under
contract, and most of them in an advanced
state, are completed. As common danger
creates common friends, so a benefit is enjoyed
by the whole; aud, in like manner, an injury
received by all. Their bond of sisterhood,
formed in principle and cemented in interests,
ia likely to bo as durable as the States which it
encircles.
In two, or at most in three years, from pres
ent indications, the capitals of the most widely
separated slave States will be brought within
thirty-flvo hours of each other, by railroad com
munication entirely through slave territory.—
At an earlier period will the Gulf of Mexico be
reached in a considerably leas time from the
Chesapeake bay. while Charleston and Savan
nah will be within thirty-six hours’ travel of
Louisville and Memphis* Baltimore, Alexan
dria, Norfol , Petersburg, and Richmond will
be directly connected by locomotive velocity
with Vicksburg, Natchez, Mobile, Peusacola,
and New Orleans.
Upon the face of the globe, says the Journal
of Commerce, there is not so stuperiiluus a rail
way network as that in embryo, which is to
embrace in its circle, and ultimately develop,
every foot of Southern soil. Texas and Florida
under its influences, will profit alike with Ma
ryland aud Delaware. Such mineral aud other
resources arc to be unlocked in the long-neg
lected mountains and valleys of Virginia, Nortn-
Caroliua, South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky,
and Tennessee, as will contribute in as great a
degree to the prosperity of those States and
their Southern sisters, as have the products of
their luxuriant fields. Scientific discoveries
have pointed out to them their hidden treasures,
and arranged the manner of their realization.—
Richmond, from its unequalled facilities for
manufacturing aud healthful location, may be
come tho Manchester from which the South
will derive its supplies of cotton and woolen ap
parel ; and Knoxville, heretofore shut out from
intercourse with the world, tho Birmingham
which will furnish it with all that may be re
quired of metallic articles. Its position is cen
tral, and the centre at which tho trains on all
the great routes will meet. Its adjacent coal
fields, aud Iron, copper, and lead mines, are
numerous and inexhaustible.
The great Illinois coal-field stretches along
through some two hundred miles of the north
ern border of Kentucky. At Cloveport, Hawes
ville, Lewisport, Owensboro, Caseyville, on the
Green river, in Livingston county, coal and
iron ore abound, at any of which points manu
facturing may be as successfully carried on as
at Lowell. Within the borders of Kentucky
our own iron ore can be as well worked up as
it can at Pittsburg. So with everything else
sos every-day consumption throughout the
South.
The day of dependence upon the North by
the South for markets, as for merchandise, is
rapidly passing away. With it, social inter
course will diminish in a similar ratio. The
incalculable value of the Southern travel muy
be cut off to such an extent as to rend r it of
but little profit. The mountainous region ol
the slave States abounds with medicinal springs,
of as varied qualities and curative virtues as
the celebrated Spas of Germany. Many of
them—some quite newly discovered—are sur
rounded by picturesque scenery, and are perpet
ually funned, iu the warm mouths, by invigora
ting salubrious breezes. They are ail liecoiutug
easy of access. Two years hence a railroad of
twenty-four hours from tidewater will place the
seeker after it ut the one furthest off. They
are destined to speedily be the most fascinating
objects ot summer attraction on this continent
to the fashionable and wealthy, as also to the
“lame and afflicted.” Nor hern cities and wa
tering places were never so prosperous as when
thronged with Southern visitors. Those visi
tors, iu the main, they must prepare themselves
to lose.
France has for some time entertained the no
tion of establishing a line of steamships from
Bordeaux and Havre (those leaving the tatter
place to land at Southampton) to Norfolk. It
is believed thut our minister, Mr. Mason, has
given the contemplated enterprise such encour
agement as he could, consistently with his du
ties, us he was known to be favorable to it be
fore his appointment, It is probable that three
or four vessels will be constructed for the pur
pose by the French government at an early day,
aud thut the government of the United States
will authorize the building of two or more next
winter, to ruu in correspondence with them.—
The Tehauntepec route will, not unlikely, have
its termination on this side of the Gulf, at Pen
sacola. This would afford by far the most di
rect, as it would be the most expeditious, ocean
aud laud highway from all the capitals of Eu
rope to the Southern States, Cuba, Mexico,
the pacific ports, the Sandwich Islands, Ja]>aii,
Australia aud China. The travel from London
or Paris to the Pacific could be performed by
this route in sixteen days, and to San Francis
co in twenty-three or twenty-four, at the pres-,
ent speed of steamers and locomotives.
Thus we have merely glanced at a few—a
very few—of the advantages which the South
enjoys for independence of the North—advan
tages which are justly appreciated, and will be
probably exploited if the existing national sen
timent shall be obliterated by the wild, immor
al doctrines and doings of Abolitionists, Free
soilere, Know Nothings, Liquor Prohibitionists.
With no such doctrines will the South ever
fraternize. To no such government doings as
they contemplate will they ever submit. The
Abolitionists would burn their houses over their
beads; the Freesoilera would deprive them ol
all influence in the national councils; the Kuow
Nothings would abrogate the most sacred prin
ciples tor which their fathers uulurled the ban
ner of revolution; and the Liquor Prohibition
ists would place upon the federal code-book a
statute that would be more disgraceful to civil
ization that the most despotic public act of the
worst tyrant that ever reigned.

“Thus, after 349 days’ obstinate defence of a
city surrounded hastily, and in sight of the
enemy, with field works, presenting between its
different parts natural obstacles like the South
Creek and the hurber, the garrison evaiuuted
the city without being molested. The enemy,
still under the impression of the bloody opposi

think of pursuing us. Our passage to the
