A day of
grace is
yet held
out to us.
Both North
and South
have been
guilty
before
God; and
the
Christian
church has
a heavy
account to

to protect
injustice
and
cruelty,
and making
a common
capital of
sin, is
this Union
to be
saved, –
but by
repentance,
justice
and mercy;
for, not
surer is
the
eternal
law by
which the
millstone
sinks in
the ocean,
than that
stronger
law, by
which
injustice
and
cruelty
