17864Why waste more time in controversy, when There is not time enough for all of love, Our rightful occupation in this life?
17864Will you please let me stop here to- night, out of the rain, with my children?"
15128Then why,said master,"did you not perform my orders in the note?"
15128And what does it show us?
15128At last I pretended to awake, and called out, who''s there-- that you, Lizzy?
15128But do you reply that in many instances they have violated this compact and have not been faithful to their engagements?
15128But, again, gentlemen, what have we to gain by this proposed change of our relation to the general government?
15128He said"nigger, did Mr. Cobb flog you?"
15128Master then came out and said, now I saw this boy''s horses clean last night and in the stable, so now tell me which of you turned them out?
15128Now, Mary, I want you to tell me at once whose you mean to be-- mine or Dan''s?
15128They will be the calm and deliberate judges in the case?
15128What interest of the South has been invaded?
15128What justice has been denied?
15128What must I do, select another victim for further punishment, or confess the truth and bear the consequence?
15128What reasons can you give to the nations of the earth to justify it?
15128What right has the North assailed?
15128When we asked a three- fifths representation in congress for our slaves was it not granted?
15128Why was I born black?
15128and what cause or one overt act can you name or point, on which to rest the plea of justification?
15128and what claim founded in justice and right has been withheld?
28021And what induced you to run away?
28021But, mother, if I do get asleep, you wo n''t let him get me?
28021Crossed on the ice?
28021Do n''t know?
28021Is it possible?
28021Ma''am,she said, suddenly,"have you ever lost a child?"
28021Mamma,said one of the boys, gently touching her arm,"are you going to give away those things?"
28021Shall we take off the cloak, mas''r?
28021So, Uncle Tom, where are you going?
28021To- night,said Mrs. Bird,"how is it possible-- and where to?"
28021Well, I wo n''t, then, for your sake; but only to think of it-- isn''t it a shame? 28021 What''s little missy''s name?"
28021Where are you going, mother?
28021Who-- who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
28021You''re_ sure_, an''t you, mother?
28021After a short pause, Mrs. Bird asked:--"And where do you mean to go to, my poor woman?"
28021Do n''t you know me?"
28021In all the world what brings you here?"
28021Is it very far off ma''am?"
28021Mr. Bird turned round and walked to the window, and Mrs. Bird burst into tears; but, recovering her voice, she said--"Why do you ask that?
28021Now, what''s your name?"
28021So, now, you hold on to her, and grow up, and be a comfort to her, thar''s my own good boy-- you will, now, wo n''t ye?"
28021Tell me where you came from, and what you want?"
28021Would you now turn away a poor, shivering, hungry creature from your door because he was a runaway?
28021Would you, now?"
28021Ye an''t offended, Mas''r George?"
28021have you got him?"

40698Could any other result have been expected?
40698Did sensible men at the North-- did the abolitionists themselves, expect any other?
40698Is Massachusetts herself overrun with population-- obliged to rid herself of paupers whom she can not feed at home?
40698Is Nebraska, which was opened to settlement by the same law, less desirable, less inviting to northern adventurers, than Kansas?
40698Was it not well understood by all, that the Federal Convention alone had the right to fix upon the line of 36Â ° 30'', or upon any other line?
40698Why, we might well enquire, if simple emigration was in view, are these extraordinary efforts confined to the Territory of Kansas?
32507If the Hollanders must not trade to Virginia, how shall the Planters dispose of their Tobacco? 32507 Will he, after accustomed to the tobacco of his own growth,"he asked,"ever regard that which is in Virginia?

32507Can it be believed that from England more ships will be sent than are able to bring thence what tobacco England will spent?
32507Could he and his sons, when they hoed their fields with their own hands, compete with slave labor?
32507Could he hope to become a freeholder, making of Virginia, like Rome in the early days of the republic, the land of the small proprietor?
32507How can one deny that the assassination of Abraham Lincoln affected profoundly the course of American history?
32507How is it possible to explain the French religious wars of the Sixteenth century by the theory of economic causes?
32507How, it may be asked, could Virginia and Maryland produce the vast crops now required by the foreign trade, if the price was still so low?
32507If Virginia were flooded with slaves, would it not cheapen production and lower the price of tobacco?
32507If they do bring more, must they not lose thereby both stock and Block, principle and charges?
32507In the chapter"NOTES ON CHAPTERS", Footnotes without anchor points have been marked with a question mark,( ex:?[ 5- 3]).
32507In what way does it account for the rebellion of Virginia and North Carolina and Maryland against the British government in 1775?
32507Is not this a destruction to the commerce?
32507Might it not be possible that though the acres of the planter were limited, his estate after all corresponded somewhat with the popular conception?

32507Will he ever afterwards be induced to fetch it thence, when he finds his profit higher at home?
32507Will it not then perish on the Planters hands?...
32507Would he become a tenant?
32507Would he eventually become a day laborer, working for wages upon the estates of the wealthy?
32507Would he remain permanently in the status of a servant, entering into a new agreement with his master after the expiration of the old?
4048Do you take care of the house all alone by yourself?
4048Is it not beautiful?
4048Shall I tie it on again, Alice, or shall your pretty hair go just so? 4048 What is the matter?"
4048What shall we do with it all?
4048Why, Mother, how could you do so? 4048 Would it not please him that you should have a spelling book and a slate to write on, William?
4048Would you rather I should give it to your cousin?
4048But who was there that would not, with patient love, listen to them for many a time?
4048Could I not tell when she was going to work in this family by the way she threw me over her shoulders?
4048How could you cut off your pretty hair, and put on that ugly cap?
4048One day, her father called her to him, and said,"Come, Alice, and tell me which color I shall use to ornament the border of your box-- blue or green?"
4048Was it not enough to have treated them as you say you did in the Jerseys?
4048What would father say?
4048When she hung me up in her small bed room, did I not notice her grateful, happy smile?
4048When she went home, her mother said,"Why, Alice, your hair is all over your face; how comes that?"
4048Who would have believed that I was the same hair that covered the head of dear Alice when she was a bride?
4048Will you go up stairs?
4048Would you like a book to read till papa and mamma come home; here is my Testament; or would you like I should read to you?"
40760Did you not see white people sit upon that bench, you saucy rascal?
40760What crime, master, shall I confess? 40760 Where could I run, or in what place could I conceal myself?"
40760Where have you been?
40760''What is it you have in here?''
40760Do I not see the grease as it runs out of your face?"
40760I asked them what they were going to whip me for?
40760I at length rapped lightly on the door, and was immediately asked, in the well- known voice of my wife,"Who is there?"
40760I have committed no crime-- what has been done, that you are going to murder me?"
40760If we had meat here, would not you see it?
40760Maria, is it you?"
40760My master then asked me why I had followed the young lady and her brother, who went from the house the evening before, and murdered her?
40760She then came to the door, and opening it slowly, said,"Who is this that speaks so much like my husband?"
40760can such things be?

38173Affairs: Fort Smith, Arkansas TROUBLE BREWING AMONG THE CHEROKEES WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
38173After treating with these, I returned by Fort Arbuckle, and before reaching there, met a nephew of Mr. Ross, and a Captain[ Keld?
38173Evan Jones''connected with any Missionary Society and if so, what one?
38173Furthermore, what need was there for Arkansas to interest herself in the Chickasaw forts, since the Texan troops were already in possession?
38173Have you received the money,( some$ 3.000) that I asked should be sent you to pay expenses of the new Indian Councils?
38173If you had written me,_ before_, what you write now, in regard to McKusken[?
38173In answer to a question by Commissioner Sells,"How did you happen to be in this Southern Country?"
38173It was true enough, as Burroughs said, that the Federal troops had abandoned the Indian country; but against whom were the forts to be held?
38173LEEPER[?]
38173Now what is to be concluded?
38173Shall I take care of them on the faith of an appropriation?
38173So much for the contents of the treaties but what about the detailed history of their negotiation?
38173So much then for the location of the really great tribes, but where were the lesser?
38173The President said in my presence,"Now that the Choctaws have a Delegate in Congress, what need of an Agent?"
38173What have the Indians with which to disprove this?
38173Why do you not demand his removal, and name a person for his place?
38173Why should they, if we will not bind ourselves to give them what they hazard in giving us their rights under treaties?
38173You are aware that I can not close my returns without funds for the purpose, when shall I look for them?
17851Any restraint?
17851Mammy,I said,"is this you?"
17851Mammy,I said,"what''s the matter?"
17851You have broken it, have you?
17851And then when we are quite done up, who cares for us, more than for a lame horse?
17851Are there no restraints( supposing them necessary) short of absolute slavery to keep"troublesome characters"in order?
17851But who cared for that?
17851Did one of the many by- standers, who were looking at us so carelessly, think of the pain that wrung the hearts of the negro woman and her young ones?
17851He"_ induced her to take a husband_?"
17851Her husband then wrote to my master to inquire whether I was to be sold?
17851How can one treat such arguments seriously?
17851How can slaves be happy when they have the halter round their neck and the whip upon their back?
17851If the fact were true, what brutality of mind and manners does it not indicate among these slave- holders?
17851Is not this pretext hypocritical in the extreme?
17851Is this then a power which any man ought to possess over his fellow- mortal?
17851Mr. Wood asked him who gave him a right to marry a slave of his?
17851Mrs. Pell came out to me, and said,"Are you really going to leave, Molly?
17851True: But was it not her home( so far as a slave can have a home) for thirteen or fourteen years?
17851Was it not there she hoped to spend her latter years in domestic tranquillity with her husband, free from the lash of the taskmaster?
17851Were not the connexions, friendships, and associations of her mature life formed there?
17851What''s the reason they ca n''t do without slaves as well as in England?
17851When I came upon the deck I asked the black people,"Is there any one here for me?"
17851While the woman was in this distressed situation she was asked,''Can you feed sheep?''
17851or which any good man would ever wish to exercise?
35662Because in the ordinance establishing the territorial government of Missouri, in 1812, there was no Wilmot proviso, no prohibition of slavery?
35662But is that all the legislation in the Constitution about slavery?
35662But now, Mr. Chairman, what state of things does this country exhibit?
35662But, sir, who is responsible for the agitation?
35662Do I want any better pro- slavery men than these?
35662Do we ask this Government to legislate slavery into the Territories?
35662Do we find it in the legislation of our forefathers?
35662FERRY,) in the commencement of this debate, soon after the organization of this House, in voting such a provision as that?
35662Has the Democratic party ever asked the national Legislature to establish slavery in her Territory?
35662How does the southern farmer procure slaves?
35662Is it not the party that calls for legislation?
35662Mr. Chairman, from what source do we learn this new doctrine?
35662Now, if you had the right to exclude Missouri because she tolerated slavery, why did you not have the same right to exclude Kentucky?
35662Now, sir, what is the state of parties?
35662Now, sir, who departed from the lessons of wisdom taught by the fathers of the republic?
35662Now, what precedent do they furnish us in this clause of the Constitution?
35662That is the policy which guided our ancestors; and now, what do we ask?
35662What does the Democratic party ask?
35662What was the cause of the agitation of 1820?
35662What would be the consequence of hindering us from it?
35662Where, sir, was this notion of"a sin against God and a crime against humanity"when they voted for that clause?
35662Why do not members of Congress, assembled within these Halls, imitate the legislation of these men?
35662Why, sir, how are we responsible for the slavery agitation that has produced all the evils and mischief which afflict the country?
35662Why, sir, if it would have been bad faith to have excluded Kentucky, was it not bad faith to exclude Missouri?
35662Why, we are responsible for it because we do not join the Republican party to exclude slavery from the Territories?
15096Can you describe them?
15096Did n''t you ask their names?
15096How is that, Jack?
15096How many were with you?
15096Isom, did you get with some other runaways?
15096Isom, do you want something to eat?
15096Well, have you got cooled off, Josh?
15096Well, why did ye not go?
15096What are their names, and to whom do they belong?
15096Where did you see the hunter?
15096Where have you been?
15096Yes, Henie,said Mr. Clarkson,"he says so, but will he not?"
15096You are not going to lock him up, are you Thomas?
15096As he clasped me in his arms, he said,"Bres de Lo, my son, wat is de matter?"
15096Clarkson?"
15096Father said to her,"I know it is very hard, but what can we do?
15096How were they fed?
15096I met one of my fellow negroes one day, who lived next neighbor to us, and I said to him,"Well, Uncle William, how are you, to- day?"
15096Mistress said to me,"Jacob, why did you not ask me for the pig if you wanted it, rather than take it without permission?"
15096Mr. Usom said,"Well, how do you think it will be with poor fellows that have to go there?"
15096Mrs. Clarkson said,"What are you going to do, Thomas?"
15096My readers ask, did not some of the slaves at home betray their fellow negroes, the runaways, to the white man?
15096My readers ask, how had they obtained arms and what were those arms, since slaves were not allowed to have deadly weapons?
15096My readers ask, what was the sand put on the fort for?
15096My readers would naturally ask how many seasons these children were taken to the summer seats?
15096Now do you think that you can capture him without his being hurt, or torn by your dogs?"
15096On entering the room, as she was advancing toward the bed, she said,"Massa Manning, what is the matter with you?
15096The next morning the overseer came into the carpenter''s shop and said,"Did I not order ye into the field, sir?"
15096The overseer said to him,"Josh, what are you doing there?"
15096Then he took a newspaper from his pocket and said to me,"Can you say these words?"
15096Then mistress asked me,"Can you read, Jacob?"
15096Then she took hold of me and said,"Does it hurt you, son?"
15096Turning to me he took the paper from his pocket again, and said,"Jacob, who told you to say words in the book?"
15096You naughty boy, what is the matter?"
15096You wo n''t, will you Isom?"
15096is it possible that my mamma Betty, the only mother I ever knew, was killed by my hands?"
35222Are the prisoners in the boat?

35222Is it possible that a stimulus can be wanting? 35222 Is the treaty signed?"
35222And must these Moors, then, carry me away?_ MOTHER.
35222And what these horrid scenes that round me rise?
35222And who can tell that this despised portion of the globe is not destined to yet another restoration?
35222Can there be but one feeling?

35222Heard ye the clanking of the captive''s chain?
35222Heard ye the groans, those messengers of pain?
35222Heard ye your free- born sons their fate deplore, Pale in their chains and laboring at the oar?
35222Or must it forever be the fate of_ FREE STATES,_ that the soft voice of union should be drowned in the hoarse clamors of discord?_ No!
35222Saw ye the fresh blood where it bubbling broke From purple scars, beneath the grinding stroke?
35222What can be worse?
35222What else can I expect from thee, abandoned At such a tender age, amongst a people Full of deceit and all iniquity?
35222Where are the gallant remains of the race who fought for freedom?
35222Where is desire for his service?
35222Where is human pity and the compassion of man for man?
35222Where is the love of God?
35222Where is the zeal for his glory?
35222Where the glorious heirs of their patriotism?
35222Who can tell how many hearts have been wrung by the pangs of separation, how many crushed by the comfortless despair of interminable bondage?
35222Will you go with me, brother?
35222_ O mother, mother, may I not remain?
35222_ Saw ye the shrinking slave, th''uplifted lash, The frowning butcher, and the reddening gash?

35222what mean these dolorous cries?

53904As lovers of their race how can they wish to see it occupy its present position in the free States?
53904The question is, whether they would be perpetuated if strictly confined to intermarriage among themselves?
53904They have a sad and perplexing duty to perform, and why should we, by our interference, increase those burdens which we can do nothing to lighten?
53904What are the causes of this decay?
53904What must become of the black population at this rate in a few years?
2806430 min., to extend slavery into such territory?
2806430 min., under the law of March 6th 1820, as impliedly devoted to slavery as the country north of it was to freedom?
28064Are free white American citizens in American territories, as well as American States, competent to decide the question of African slavery or not?
28064Are they competent to govern themselves or not?
28064Does any man believe there is any constitutional right in Congress to do any such thing?
28064Does it mean that slavery can not exist in any territory of the United States over which the constitution extends?
28064I ask again, where does the real National Democratic party of the people, headed by Douglas, now stand on the question of slavery?
28064If so, of what avail is it for a State constitution or State law to prohibit slavery?
28064Is it not slavery rather than freedom that needs the protection of positive law?
28064Is slavery more progressive and expansive than freedom?
28064Is there reason in this cry, for argument it can not be called?
28064Now, who shall say that the compromise of 1850 was a law to extend slavery over the free territory covered by it?
28064Were the people senseless or did they mean nothing when they endorsed those laws?
28064What are the plain facts?
28064What says Judge Burnett, of Cincinnati, himself a squatter sovereign, of the first territorial legislature of the North- west territory?
28064What then becomes of the asserted"right of each State to order and control its own domestic institutions according to its own judgment exclusively?"
28064What was the state of this institution at the adoption of the Constitution, and how did the Constitution deal with it?
28064Which is the Democratic position?
28064Why is this?
28064and are the men who form Free States afraid to meet the men who form Slave States on common ground and take an even chance for control?
28064and, 2d-- How do the parties and the candidates now before the people stand in regard to it?

13579what an awful thing we have done?
15398Boys, can you tell me where that old colored man lives who saws wood, and works at jobs around the streets?
15398Have I not paid you as much as any other passenger through to Cincinnati?
15398Is Dundy a colored man?
15398Is it old Job Dundy?
15398Now I want you to tell me whether you have run away? 15398 Sir, did you not ask me to come to the table?"
15398That is the very man I am looking for; will you show me where he lives?
15398What did you bring that negro back here for?
15398What is his name?
15398What is your objection?
15398What, sir?
15398Who, Mr. Bibb? 15398 And who had a better right to eat of the fruits of my own hard earnings than myself? 15398 And, why publish it after having told it publicly all through New England and the Western States to multiplied thousands? 15398 Can I do that which I complain of others for doing unto me? 15398 Could it be possible that men would make slaves of their own children? 15398 For while the slave is regarded as property, how can he steal from his master? 15398 Have I disobeyed any law of this boat?
15398He appeared to be pleased at that, but cautioned me to tell him the truth, and asked me how long I stayed away, when I run off?
15398He asked me if I was a slave from Kentucky, and if I ever intended to go back into slavery?
15398He then asked who I was acquainted with there?
15398I asked her how he knew that I had gone?
15398I asked him if he would let me ride the horse which he was leading, as I was going to the same city?
15398I felt awful in view of never seeing my family again; they asked what was the matter?
15398I then asked him how I should get my freedom?
15398I then asked them again if they would do me the kindness to tell me who it was betrayed me into their hands at Cincinnati?
15398I want you to tell me now whether you can read or write?"
15398Is it doing as we would be done by?
15398Is it honest or right?
15398Is it in accordance with the principles of humanity or justice?
15398Is this Christianity?
15398It may be asked why I have written this work, when there has been so much already written and published of the same character from other fugitives?
15398Or who would not do the same thing to rescue a wife, child, father, or mother?
15398They asked him how he knew?
15398They asked if he( Whitfield) was a slaveholder?
15398They stopped and asked the Deacon what that bell was put on my neck for?
15398They wanted to know if I needed any help?
15398What kind of slaves have you, sir?"
15398What shall I do?
15398What would induce me to run the same risk now?
15398With a very pleasant smile, he replied,"Yes, I do want to buy some, are you for sale?"
15398and they wanted to know if it could be possible that a man so near white as myself could be a slave?
15398how shall I give my husband the parting hand never to meet again?
15398my dear little child is gone?
15398what made me look so cast down?
37296Dear me, do you think so?
37296I am serious,said Irving;"are we agreed?"
37296Permit him, my good Sir? 37296 To what end( it is impressively asked) do we profess a religion whose dictates we so flagrantly violate?
37296Well, my dear Sophy,he observes,"are you reconciled to your brother becoming a dealer in slaves?
37296What sound is that?
37296What''s all that Afric''s golden rivers roll, Her odorous woods, and shining ivory stores? 37296 Where wast thou, then, sweet Charity, where then, Thou tutelary friend of helpless men?

37296***"What man reading this, And having human feelings, does not blush And hang his head, to think himself a man?"
37296--"And the boy, remember?"
37296But how can you part from him, or how will Frank bear to be separated from his revered benefactor?"
37296Canst thou, and honoured with a Christian name, Buy what is woman- born and feel no shame?
37296Dost thou not break those forks with which these unfortunates are confined?
37296Dost thou not, in imagination, rush with fury upon those infamous conductors?
37296Have you done with me?"
37296How long shall we continue a practice which policy rejects, justice condemns, and piety revolts at?"
37296How was it he had never been taught to pray?
37296In this lowly attitude she fainted; and when a little recovered, she exclaimed in mournful accents:"O Tumiáh, where art thou?
37296Independently of the linen I brought from England, I have some presented to me, by a negro king and his sister:( what think you of that, Sophy?)
37296Irving enquired from whence he was taken, and from whom purchased?
37296Nor( shall I confess it, Sophy?)
37296Perhaps it was a custom among them?
37296Trade in the blood of innocence, and plead Expedience as a warrant for the deed?
37296Wherefore have we that pattern of goodness and humanity, if we refuse to follow it?
37296Will you permit me to ring for him?"
37296Would my royal master wish to see this Englishman?"
37296and dost thou not long to restore them to liberty?

22100And he said, Hagar, Sarai''s maid, whence comest thou? 22100 One was afraid and the other dare not"--but which?

22100How shall it be?
22100How was the news of the failure to reinforce Sumter, and of its being fired on and taken possession of by a rebellious people, received in the North?
22100I am against this, Are you for it?
22100I awaited his approach, and on his arrival accosted him with the inquiry,"What is the matter, General?"
22100If they could hold out a few days, could you help them?
22100In other respects, how dissimilar?
22100In the antithesis of this speech he asked and answered:"How can the Union be saved?
22100Is there, has there ever been, any question that by the laws of war, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?"
22100Mr. President, do you remember the last chapter in that history?
22100Now that California and New Mexico were United States territory, how was it to be devoted to slavery to reward the friends of its acquisition?
22100One of the runaway slaves,"Joe,"a handsome mulatto,_ borrowed_(?)
22100That States will divide from States and boundary lines will be marked by compass and chain?
22100The law of the place whence it came, or the law of the place to which it was taken?
22100Then turning to me, he said,''General Mahone, I have no other troops, will you take your division to Sailor''s Creek?''
22100They were evidently taken by surprise, and retired in the utmost confusion[?].
22100We are''shivering in the wind,''are we, sir, over your Cuba question?

22100why, in the name of God, should anybody prevent it?"
28197And may we not appeal also to our brethren of the South-- and ask their fair consideration of the two propositions I have suggested? 28197 Where, I ask, is the good ship Virginia, in the array of the national fleet?
28197And what is the result?
28197And who are we, we may be permitted to ask, to whose hands this charge has been committed?
28197And, gentlemen, would he not as likely give to those who_ could not_ tell?
28197Does the preaching such language to slaves tend to pacification?
28197Gentlemen, did he not give Mr. King one, because he thought that he_ would not_ mention it?
28197If so, does not this libel of itself afford sufficient evidence of malice, without resorting to the matter of other pamphlets not charged?
28197In other words, to see what legal inferences of additional evidence such inscriptions afford?
28197Is it unreasonable to suppose that he was deterred by the warning?
28197It was also asked why the person who gave the bundle to him in New York was not brought to testify in his favor?
28197May not any man be subjected to be treated as a felon, upon the instigation of private malice, or party animosity, or religious rancor?
28197May we not appeal to the experience of eleven years, to show that the work in which we are engaged can be conducted without excitement or alarm?
28197May we not claim at least this merit for our labors:--that they are safe?
28197Now if but one of fifty was given out, is it not as probable that he did not desire to publish them, as that he did?
28197Ought not this to join all hearts, and call forth renewed exertions from those whose labors have thus far been crowned with unexpected success?
28197Shall it be said that we are not liable to the same vicissitudes that have overtaken other nations?
28197The loan to Mr. King was the only instance proved of distribution, and could that be considered malicious?
28197Then why resort to them?
28197There are two questions in this case: are the libels charged criminal?--are they proved to have been published by the traverser?
28197What does he propose for the slave?
28197What is the natural result, if some means are not applied to prevent it?
28197What is the next consequence?
28197What proof could this appropriation or adoption afford of a malicious intent in their publication?
28197What was the case?
28197Why did he not?
28197Why do not his counsel advise it?
28197Why does not this_ persecuted_ man bring his action for false imprisonment?
28197Witness or one of the magistrates asked Crandall"whether he was aware of the nature of the pamphlets when he left New York?"
28197_ Judge Morsell._ Did Crandall make any remark, when you took the pamphlet?
28197_ Question by Key._ Which of the pamphlets did you find at the office, and which at the house?

67In 1912 he wrote an article for Century magazine entitled"Is the Negro Having a Fair Chance?"
67The caption over the cartoon read"Why not make America safe?"
67This left them to wrestle with such questions as:"Am I an American?"
67What should be the status of the ex- slave?
67What would be the place of Negroes who were not fully accepted as Americans?
67Who should determine that status?
41173What are the essential principles of democracy as distinguished from republicanism? 41173 Would you do a benefit to the horse or the ox by giving him a cultivated understanding, a fine feeling?
41173And from what quarter do you look for redemption?
41173And now we ask you, why this downward course?
41173And now, did these butcheries by the Mississippi PLANTERS excite the indignation of the slaveholding communities?
41173And now, fellow- citizens, what think you of Mr. Calhoun''s"most safe and stable basis for free institutions?"
41173And what, fellow- citizens, will be the condition of such of_ you_ as shall then remain in the slave States?
41173But how happened it that the slaveholders permitted their prey to escape?
41173But in truth what injury is done them by this?
41173But, fellow- citizens, what, in such a catastrophe, would be your condition?
41173Do you deem these assertions uncharitable?
41173Do you number TRIAL BY JURY among free institutions?
41173Do you pant for liberty and equality, more substantial than such as is now found only in your obliterated and tattered bills of right?
41173Do you trust to their patriotism?
41173Has it ever happened that the mass of any people were rich enough to keep, for their own convenience, such expensive laborers-- as southern slaves?
41173If then the fetters of the slave are not to be broken by the master, by whom is he to be liberated?
41173Is it because the interests of the slaveholders are not represented in the national councils?
41173Is poverty of rare occurrence in any country?
41173Now, we ask what must be the state of society, where the public journals thus justify and stimulate the public thirst for blood?
41173Now, what is the proportion of members of Congress from the two sections?
41173Think you your planting nobility will ever grant freedom to their serfs, from sentiments of piety or patriotism?
41173What has occasioned the difference?...
41173What think you would be the fate of the man who should attempt to deliver a lecture in Charleston or Mobile on the safety of emancipation?
41173Where will be the independence, the proud spirit, and the chivalry of Kentuckians then?"
41173Why do we hear of stabbings and shootings almost_ daily_ in some part or other of our State?"
41173Why this continually increasing disparity between you and your Northern brethren?
41173Why this difference of 15 in the two ratios?
41173Why this difference?

31191Is the person seized the man he is said to be?
31191Is this true?
31191Now, what says your law?
31191Of the thirteen American States in 1787, how many, Sir, had_ by law_ abolished slavery?
31191Of what do we deprive them?
31191Then came the question, What should constitute the representative population?
31191To whom, and for what, was this money paid?
31191Trade in what?
31191Was it in pursuance of this agreement that the importation of slaves was guaranteed for twenty years?
31191Well, Sir, does this constitutional obligation authorize Congress to pass_ any_ law whatsoever on the subject, however atrocious and wicked?
31191Well, Sir, were our fathers infallible?
31191Well, Sir, what is the amount of that?
31191What do they mean by this''property''?
31191What is a_ suit_?
31191What taught the Apostles?
31191What was the"den"in which John Bunyan had his glorious vision of the Pilgrim''s Progress?
31191What would be the consequence of hindering us in this point?
31191Where have we all been living for half a century?"
31191Why is the tocsin now sounded by the very authors and friends of the measures?
50020''Do you see that excellent new stone wall round the field below us?'' 50020 ''But do n''t you think there will be difficulty in procuring labor?'' 50020 ''But what makes you want freedom? 50020 ''How are you treated now?'' 50020 ''Then you like apprenticeship better than slavery?'' 50020 ''What would you do, if you were entirely free?'' 50020 ''You like apprenticeship as well as freedom, do n''t you?'' 50020 Accosting them in a friendly manner, he inquired,''What is the meaning of this? 50020 And what was the reason? 50020 Are wages lower in any quarter of the civilized world? 50020 But does that prove they are lazy? 50020 But of all common questions, it seems to me the most absurd one is,What would you_ do_ with the slaves, if they were emancipated?"
50020Do you ask in what way it is to be accomplished?
50020Has it come to this?
50020How did they obtain these freeholds then?

50020How does it happen that the Railway Company are equally well off for labor?

50020How is it that you are not at work this morning?''
50020In other countries, where dey is free, do n''t_ dey_ have de law?''
50020In view of these facts, is it not unjust and irrational to persist in calling immediate emancipation a"fanatical"idea?
50020Is it surprising that the colored people should prefer to raise produce on a few acres of their own, to working on the plantations without wages?
50020Is my authority to be interfered with by strangers?
50020Is my conduct to be questioned by these people?
50020It is often asked,"What is your plan?"
50020Pro- slavery presses in England and America exultingly proclaimed,"Behold the effects of emancipation?"
50020They replied,''In slavery time, we work,_ even_ wid de whip;_ now_ we work till better; what tink we will do when we_ free_?
50020To another we said:''Where are you taking that cart- load of cane- tops to, my man?''
50020To another, who headed a group of seventy or eighty children, we said,''Where are you going, my friend?''
50020Was that an idle people?
50020Was the wolf''s complaint of the lamb, for muddying the stream below him, more unreasonable?
50020We said to a woman with a great bundle of cane- tops on her head,''Are you going to the Great Valley, too?''
50020What consequence was it to the planters, whether"the little black devils"( as they called them) lived or died?
50020When immediate emancipation is proposed, those who think loosely are apt to say,"But would you turn the slaves loose upon society?"
50020Why then have her complaints been so much louder and more prolonged, than those of her neighbors?
50020where are all these people going?''

63254Did not those people, under such circumstances, have the right individually to resist so flagrant an outrage upon their rights and liberties?

63254Was it authorized to create that domestic violence?

63254Was it to be expected that American statesmen should be better, wiser and more philanthropic than English statesmen?

32615Do you know how to adjust the pile and the jets to make a weapon out of them?
32615FAST?
32615For Schwenky?
32615How come you''re on this ship?
32615How do I know?
32615How near we to Earth?
32615If I may be so bold, how about me?
32615Lady?
32615Lock him up, eh? 32615 Never mind, she''ll hear you....""What?
32615Put you in the pile gang did n''t he?
32615Telephone? 32615 Three hours, you say?"
32615Want to be a hero, son?
32615What about the missing men?
32615What else?
32615What gives, beautiful?
32615What happened, Schwenky?
32615What we want to know is whether you can soup up that pile so we can beat that Cruiser down to Earth?
32615What''s going on there, men?
32615What''s my job, Captain?
32615What''s that?
32615What''s the score on this bucket?
32615What''s up?
32615What''s your name?
32615What?
32615What_ is_ the correct direction?
32615Where are you going to meet her?
32615Where is Whiting now?
32615Where is she?
32615Where were you?
32615Where you going?
32615Where''re my mutineers?
32615Where''s Io?
32615Who tried last?
32615Who, me? 32615 Why are we here?"
32615Why do n''t you try to put your information where it''ll do some good? 32615 *****Is it not handsome?"
32615And Heinie with fingernails growing where his collar button should be?
32615And the Chief with hair on his cheekbones and double eyeballs?
32615As one of them expressed it to Gene:"Why worry?
32615But what I do?"
32615But--""And the four guys who tried before Whiting?"
32615Can we do it by a direct return to Earth?
32615D''ya mind if I apologize for what I just said?
32615Did n''t you know?"
32615For instance, with all the officers in the brig, how can we be sure we can keep this atomic junk heap headed in the right direction?"
32615Gene nodded, asked:"Can I look at the jet assembly?"
32615How about the Captain?"
32615I wonder what we_ can_ do, if we get free?"
32615Is it not nice?"
32615Is it not so, Gene, my friend?"
32615Just how are we going to do that?
32615Maher said,"Me with my lumpy face?
32615Maybe I get my picture in newspaper?"
32615Maybe something come to us, eh?"
32615Or did n''t you know?"
32615So they put you down here, as if there was anything to be done?
32615The man shrugged,"Who does?
32615Then where do we go?
32615What else?
32615What happened to the ship?"
32615What is going to happen now?
32615What worries me, Gene, then what do we do?"
32615Who would call Schwenky on the telephone?"
32615Why do you take it?"
32615Why should I suffer more?"
32615You want to marry me?
32615You''re a newspaperman are n''t you?"
15130Are you free?
15130Are you travelling any distance, my friend?
15130Can thee read or write any, James?
15130Do you know why these boys have not got home this morning yet?
15130Have you got papers?
15130I suppose, then, you are provided with free papers?
15130If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him, but if a man sin against God, who shall entreat for him?
15130Were you away yesterday?
15130What are you rolling your white eyes at me for, you lazy rascal?
15130--"What does thee know about that boy?"
15130After an hour or two of such freaks of joy, a gloom would come over me in connexion with these questions,"But where are you going?
15130And could He not also have given the gospel to us without making us slaves?
15130And has a man no sense of honour because he was born a slave?
15130Another said,"Who would have thought that rascal was so''cute?"
15130Are you then, by sustaining the relation of a slaveholder, forming a character to dwell with God in peace?
15130BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"How did thee find out that fact?"
15130BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"What did he offer thee to find the boy?"
15130BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Where art thou from?"
15130BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Who did he run away from?"
15130But what is generally the fate of such female slaves?
15130But what treatment did you see fit to return me for all this?
15130But what, my dear sir, is a reputation among posterity, who are but worms, compared with a destiny in the world of spirits?
15130But why this enormous sum for two mere children?
15130Could He not have made this a great and wealthy nation without making its riches to consist in our blood, bones, and souls?
15130Has he no need of character?
15130How do I know what precipices may be within its bounds?
15130How do I know what ravenous beasts are in this wood?
15130How shall I act so that he will reap the benefit of my time and talents?
15130How shall I know when I am on the right road again?
15130How would an untutored slave, who had never heard of such a writer as Archdeacon Paley, be likely to act in such a dilemma?
15130I answered him politely; when the following occurred:--"Who do_ you_ belong to?"
15130I can not rest in this wood to- morrow, for it will be searched by those men from whom I have escaped; but how shall I regain the road?
15130I know that Pennsylvania is a free state, but I know not where its soil begins, or where that of Maryland ends?
15130I ventured to ask the lad at the gate another question-- Which is the best way to Philadelphia?
15130I was arrested, and the demand made upon me,"Who do you belong to?"
15130If you ask me if I expected when I left home to gain my liberty by fabrications and untruths?
15130If you ask me whether I had expected before I left home, to gain my liberty by shedding men''s blood, or breaking their limbs?
15130If you ask me whether I now really believe that I gained my liberty by those lies?
15130Is not my liberty worth more to me than two hundred dollars are to them?
15130Is not this enough without the blood of some half- score of souls?
15130Let me ask any one of Anglo- Saxon blood and spirit, how would you expect a_ son_ to feel at such a sight?
15130Nay, is Christ divided?
15130Now arose a serious query-- which is the right prong for me?
15130On being informed that I was, I asked her if she knew where I could get employ?
15130On the questions, What shall I do for the slave?
15130PED.--"I belong in Conn."BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Did thee see the boy''s master?"
15130PED.--"I understand he had a black boy with him last winter, I wonder if he is there yet?"
15130PEDLER.--"Do you know one W.W. somewhere about here?"
15130Shall I call on my brother as I pass through, and shew him what I am about?
15130The question may be asked, Why I have published anything so long after my escape from slavery?
15130The question was, shall I hide my purpose from them?
15130Then what will become of your own doubtful claims?
15130What are you going to do?
15130What kind of a man was he?"
15130What substance is there in a piece of dry Indian bread; what nourishment is there in it to warm the nerves of one already chilled to the heart?
15130What will you do with freedom without father, mother, sisters, and brothers?
15130What will you do?
15130What will you say when you are asked where you were born?
15130Where did he come from?"
15130Will not the whole family be sold off as a disaffected family, as is generally the case when one of its members flies?
15130Will they not be suspected?
15130Will this afford a sufficient sustenance after the toil of the night?
15130Yes, sirs, many of our masters are professed Christians; and what advantage is that to us?
15130You know nothing of the world; how will you explain the fact of your ignorance?"
15130moreover, how will my flight affect them when I am gone?
10859''And can you now leave us?'' 10859 ''But what,''said he,''do you understand by virtue?''
10859''But, my dear friend,''I answered,''have you not told me that you are not of noble birth?'' 10859 But why should I continue any longer the recital of this history?
10859Meanwhile Margaret said to Madame de la Tour,''Why do we not unite our children by marriage? 10859 ''What is become of the time,''said he,''when I used to carry you both together in my arms? 10859 ''When will you come to see us?'' 10859 ''Why,''answered Paul,''why can not I give you something which belongs to heaven? 10859 --''What shall we do then?'' 10859 And why deplore the fate of Virginia? 10859 And will it not be more agreeable to return and find it in your own country?'' 10859 Are we then so near home? 10859 As soon as Madame de la Tour saw me coming, she eagerly cried,''Where is my child, my dear child?'' 10859 As soon as he perceived her, he called to her from a distance,''Where is Virginia?'' 10859 But how shall I repeat her answer? 10859 But is there in that external deference which fortune commands a compensation for domestic happiness? 10859 But might not this very object, from whom you expected the purest happiness, have proved to you a source of the most cruel distress? 10859 But where will you go in order to be happier? 10859 Does no soft instinct in thy soul prevail? 10859 Encouraged by this mark of confidence, I thus addressed him:--Father, can you tell me to whom those cottages once belonged?"
10859Hark?
10859Has God then forsaken us?
10859Have we not hitherto been happy?
10859He said to the goats and their kids which followed him, bleating,''What do you ask of me?
10859How will you bear to live without your mother''s caresses, to which you are so accustomed?
10859If I should die, what will become of you, without fortune, in the midst of these deserts?
10859Is it by your caresses?
10859Is it by your wisdom?
10859Is it not to acquire a fortune?
10859Is there any commerce more advantageous than the culture of the ground, which yields sometimes fifty or a hundred fold?
10859Is there any fortune worthy of your friendship?
10859Margaret cried,''Where is my son?
10859No sweet affection to thy bosom cling, And bid thee oft thy absent nest bewail?
10859O''er Trackless oceans what impels thy wing?
10859On what shore will you land which will be dearer to you than the spot which gave you birth?
10859Only when a traveller on the road of the Shaddock Grove inquired of any of the inhabitants of the plain,''Who lives in those two cottages above?''
10859Paul rushed towards the sea, when, seizing him by the arm, I exclaimed,''Would you perish?''
10859Scarcely had she finished, when Margaret exclaimed,''What have we to do with your relations?
10859Scarcely had they begun to ascend, when they heard voices crying out,''Is it you, my children?''
10859She often said to me,''If I should die, what will become of Virginia without fortune?''
10859Surely the sight of you will touch him with pity.--Will you show me the way?''
10859Tell me by what charm you have so enchanted me?
10859Upon this, Paul said to the governor,''My mother did, address herself to you, Sir, and you received her ill.''--''Have you another child, Madam?
10859We ran towards him, and Madame de la Tour said to him,''My son, if you go, what will become of us?''
10859What European can picture happiness to his imagination amidst poverty and neglect?
10859What anger can resist her tears?
10859What brow is not unbent by her smiles?
10859What do you deplore with so much bitterness?
10859What joy is not heightened in which she shares?
10859What need has she of a rich relation?
10859What will become of my mother who loves you with the same affection?
10859When I inquired of Paul, while we wandered amidst the plains of Williams,''Where are we now going?''
10859When I shall gaze on the two palm trees, planted at our birth, and so long the witnesses of our mutual friendship?
10859Where will you find a society more interesting to you than this by which you are so beloved?
10859Wherefore do we come to these islands?
10859Why do you go so far, and climb so high, to seek fruits and flowers for me?
10859Why do you talk to me of your birth?
10859Why gild the charms of friendship and of love With the warm glow of fancy''s purple flame?
10859Why then this regret?
10859Will he prevent me from flinging myself into the sea?
10859Will he prevent me from following her by swimming?
10859Your own misfortunes, or those of Virginia?
10859answered Virginia,''with that great wicked man?
10859at the foot of our own mountain?
10859cried Madame de la Tour,''from whence do you come?
10859if it were again possible to give me a brother, should I make choice of any other than you?
10859no more I blame: Why do my thoughts''midst vain illusions rove?
10859what language can describe those shores of eternal bliss which I inhabit for ever?
10859will you let me go and ask forgiveness for you of your master?
51371''Who is my neighbor?''
51371And now will you look on, and seal your lips in silence, and say that you have no right to interfere for the deliverance of the slave?
51371And the poor suffering female slave-- of what is she not spoiled?
51371And what, I ask, makes the crime any less heinous, when practiced toward a colored man, than it would be if practiced toward either of us?
51371And who is an oppressor, if it be not the man who holds him in bondage, and inflicts all these wrongs upon him?
51371But I seem to hear some one ask-- must we think only of the slave-- must we not regard the master''s rights?
51371But it may still be asked, what do you expect to accomplish?
51371But must he relinquish all the property he now holds in slaves?
51371But perhaps it will be asked; admitting that slavery is everything that you claim it to be, what right have you to interfere?
51371But suppose he had accomplished his end, and the unjust laws against which our fathers fought and bled, had remained in full force upon us until now?
51371But what are the evils which the Romish Church inflicts, upon such as are brought under her control?
51371But what is the amount of all this?
51371But who is the slave?
51371Christians of every name, shall we not have your aid?
51371Do any ask, on what that right is based?
51371Do you ask what shall be done for his deliverance?
51371How many of these, think you, have sufficient light to guide their feet to heaven?
51371I ask, what is that but robbery-- except it is unspeakably worse, because it is legalized-- and the poor man has no means of redress?
51371Is he not spoiled of everything?
51371Is it not most clearly a truth, then, that slavery destroys more souls, than the making and vending of ardent spirit?
51371Is not my point made clear, abundantly clear, that slavery is worse than murder?
51371Is that loving your neighbor as yourself?
51371Is that the religion of Christ?
51371Now I would like to know whether there is any language under heaven, that will sufficiently set forth the guilt of such a wretch?
51371Of what use then, are hands, and feet, and eyes, to him?
51371Poor girl, what could she do?
51371Right to hold his fellow man in bondage for one hour?
51371Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?''
51371Shall we say one half?
51371She wished to know what she could do?
51371Slavery_ itself_ is the thing to be reprobated?
51371Surely I need not say more-- what honest man is not prepared to say that slavery is worse than murder?
51371What rights?
51371Who can believe it?
51371Who is spoiled, if it be not the slave?
51371Who then, I ask again, is spoiled, if it be not the slave?
51371Would you not prefer this to being whipped, and then laid away to die under the effect?
7139''Well, what about General King?'' 7139 ''Well,''he said,''are you on good terms with Price and King?''
7139He said,''Wo n''t General Price vote for it? 7139 --you ask--What next?"
7139After assisting him in checking his steed, the President said to me:''He came pretty near getting away with me, did n''t he?
7139And as it is to so go, at all, events, may we not agree that the sooner the better?
7139And as to Oligarchal rule-- the rule of the few( and those the Southern chiefs) over the many,--was not that already accomplished?
7139And what is this"republican"form of government, thus pledged?
7139And what next?
7139Aye, what next?
7139But to return to Military operations: On December 10th?
7139Can not this last bloody battle be avoided?''
7139Does the Free Republic of the United States exist, in fact, to- day?
7139Mr. Lincoln*** more than once exclaimed:''Must more blood be shed?
7139WHAT NEXT?
99But you have something to show that you are a freeman, have n''t you?
99What will you charge?
99It is asked, said Henry Clay, on a memorable occasion, Will slavery never come to an end?
34487And by what name shall I remember you?
34487And who are you, friend?
34487But can you venture into the Havanna? 34487 But how do you know that we are not searching for a runaway slave?"
34487But surely their lives are safe?
34487But, Marcus,said I,"how can you, a man capable of better things, endure such a life?"
34487But, from what you say, I believe that you would help a slave to escape from his bonds, if you had the opportunity?
34487Can you restore those you tore from me and delivered over to worse than death? 34487 Could I have a more trustworthy and, at the same time, active and intelligent follower?"
34487Do n''t you see that it''s that ill- doing mate fellow?
34487Do you ask me to help you?
34487Do you think the scars of your merciless lash have yet disappeared from my shoulders?
34487For what you make all dat row?
34487Halloo, who have we here?
34487How came you here?
34487How long do you wish to rest?
34487I am right, am I not?
34487I say, mate-- Mister Snag-- wake up, will you? 34487 Is my voice so strangely changed then?"
34487Is there any place we can hope to reach where we can defend ourselves better than in the open plain?
34487Look out there; what do you say to that sky?
34487No frying- pans, hatchets, or other valuables left behind?
34487Now, my friend, at which port do you wish to be landed?
34487Oh dear, oh dear, or, when shall we ever go to a country where we can get along on our feet away from the sight of this ugly sea?
34487That sneaking, white- haired, milksop of a Britisher-- what business has he to refuse my civilities, I should like to know? 34487 Well, and where do you come from, stranger?"
34487What are you-- Englishmen or Americans?
34487What can that be?
34487What claim have you on me?
34487What else but death can such vermin expect at my hands?
34487What enemies have you to fear?
34487What have you been doing with yourself ever since, stranger?
34487What is the matter?
34487What is the matter?
34487What, are you all alone? 34487 What, have n''t you had your dinner, sir?"
34487Where are you going to, my dear?
34487Which of the two shall I shoot?
34487Who can he be who would venture to accompany such a harum- scarum fellow as you are, Harry?
34487Who can that be?
34487Who goes there?
34487Why do you fancy that?
34487Why, Harry, where are you going?
34487Why, who do you suppose would venture to take my scalp?
34487Will those black chaps aboard there really cut all our throats, as the captain says?
34487Will you leave it?
34487Wretched slave- driver-- overseer of your fellow- men-- have I found you once again?
34487You have travelled, friend?
34487You''ll not let that damned darkie murder me, stranger?
34487` Why how, in the name of sense, do you want to fight?'' 34487 Am I to forget the curses, the insults, you have heaped on me?
34487And is it so dark that we do n''t want a window to see out of?"
34487Are they birds, buffaloes, or Redskins?"
34487As I did so, the thought occurred to me,"For what purpose was my great strength given me?
34487Black skin or white skin, what does it matter?
34487But how, it may be asked, can this vast territory be peopled?
34487Can you tell us if any is to be found on the island?"
34487Do I look so very funny?"
34487For an instant I refrained even from tasting it, till Peter observed--"Well, sir, sure wine ai n''t so bad a thing after all, is it?"
34487How might I be treated should the pirate be captured by a man- of- war, either English or American, and I be found on board?
34487How was this to be accomplished?
34487I was awoke by a sensation of cold, and hearing Peter exclaim--"Oh, sir, I wonder what has come over the buffalo skin?"
34487I''ll be bold to ask, are we to be shut up all winter, so that we do n''t want a door to go in and out at?
34487Is that the way you would treat your friends when you find them out all desolate and alone on the wide ocean?"
34487Peter looked at me reproachfully, remarking--"I thought when we got into this country we were to have no more tossing about on the salt ocean?"
34487Presently he came directly against me, and as his white eyes rolled round, I heard him say--"Massa, you Harry Skipwith?
34487Shall we fire together, or shall we draw for the first shot?''
34487Sure enough, there was Marcus; but what could have excited his anger?
34487The boy understands me?"
34487To escape from the lash and chains, from indignities and insults, what will not a man endure?"
34487Were we not bold hunters?
34487What do you say to those black spots out there?
34487What do you wish to do?"
34487What''s it all about?
34487Where are you going, boy?"
34487Who says we''re lost?"
34487Will nobody save me?
34487` Will you fight me like a man, I ask?''
34487` Would any but a fool let his enemy point the muzzle of his gun at him, if he could help it?
34487will not your schooner run a great risk of being recognised?"
41709A composition? 41709 And can I not send out men of science, as well as warriors, statesmen, and orators?
41709And what could you know about the administration of Mr. Pierce? 41709 But,"we said,"could not our friends come to see us there as well as anywhere else?"
41709Have not my plantation homes furnished warriors, statesmen, and orators, acknowledged great by the world? 41709 How do you know?"
41709Is it possible?
41709Lord, mistess, what I t''ink o''freedom? 41709 Oh, how could you have told such a story?"
41709Ole''oman, what you mean by foolin''us so?
41709Well, why could we not?
41709What did you say, my good woman?
41709What is it, Mars''Charles?
41709What is it?

41709And if my old''ruts and grooves''produce men like these, should they be abandoned?
41709And who of us but can remember the tears of anguish caused by this, and scenes of sorrow to which we can never revert without the keenest grief?
41709Breaking a small switch, and in the act of coming down with it upon the boy, he asked:"Do you know, sir, who is master on my place?"
41709But to return to the two last lines of the stanza:"Was it not often that he who possessed them Rather was owned by his servants himself?"
41709But why try to describe the horrors of such nights?
41709Can any''advanced age''produce better?
41709Can there be in England, thought I, human beings afraid of the sound of their own voices?
41709Do I not yearly send out a faithful band to be a''shining light,''and spread the Gospel North, South, East, West, even into foreign lands?
41709Do you see that English lady over there?
41709For was not his mercy signally shown in the failure of the enemy to incite our negro slaves to insurrection during the war?
41709Had I not Washington, Patrick Henry, Light- Horse Harry Lee, and others, ready for the first Revolution?
41709Had we not, then, amid all our sorrows, much to be thankful for?
41709Has not God given each country its distinct race and literature?
41709How can anybody know, except ourselves, the personal sacrifices of our women?"
41709I once met in traveling an English gentleman who asked me:"How can you bear those miserable black negroes about your houses and about your persons?
41709I would ask:"Well, Uncle Harrison, what do you think of freedom now after ten years?"
41709If my''old- fogy''system has produced men like these, must it be abandoned?"
41709Indeed, why should they?
41709Is not the only Christian paper in Athens, Greece, the result of the love and labor of one of my soldiers?
41709Kase what is a nigger bedout white man?

41709The descendants of the negroes here portrayed,--where are they?

10448AIR-- Is there a heart,& c. Is there a man that never sighed To set the prisoner free?
10448AM I NOT A MAN AND BROTHER?
10448ARE YE TRULY FREE?
10448Am I not a Man and Brother?
10448Am I not a man and brother?
10448Am I not a man and brother?
10448And thoughts be mute?
10448Are ye deaf to the plaints that each moment arise?
10448Are ye not base slaves indeed, Men unworthy to be freed, If ye do not feel the chain, When it works a brother''s pain?
10448Are ye wanting in will?
10448Bangor Gazette What mean ye?
10448Brothers from sisters, friend from friend, How dare you bid them part?
10448Can dungeons, bolts, or bars confine thee, Or threats thy Heaven- born spirit tame?
10448Can overseers quench thy flame?
10448Do you boast of your freedom?
10448From whom does it inherit The doom of slavery?
10448HAVE WE NOT ALL ONE FATHER?
10448Have I not a soul to save?
10448Is it thus ye forget the mild precepts of Penn,-- Unheeding the clamor that"maddens the skies,"As ye trample the rights of your dark fellow- men?
10448Is there a breast so chilled in life, Can nurse the coward''s sigh?
10448Is there a creature so debased, Would not for freedom die?
10448Is there a heart so cold in man, Can galling fetters crave?
10448Is there a man that never prized The sweets of liberty?
10448Is there a wretch so truly low, Can stoop to be a slave?
10448Is true freedom but to break Fetters for our own dear sake, And, with leathern hearts forget That we owe mankind a debt?
10448Lord, break them Slavery powers-- will you go along with me?
10448Must e''en the press be dumb?
10448Must nature''neath the whip- cord languish?
10448Must the groans of your bondman still torture the ear?
10448Must truth itself succumb?
10448My country, shall thy honored name, Be as a by- word through the world?
10448O, gracious Lord?
10448Or threats thy Heaven- born spirit tame?
10448Or turns the rapid current?
10448Ought I not, then, to be free?
10448Peace, babblers-- be still; Prate not of the goddess who scarce deigns to hear; Have ye power to unbind?
10448Pierpont Are ye Truly Free?
10448Say, O fond Zurima, Where dost thou stay?
10448Say, doth another List to thy sweet lay?
10448Say, doth the orange still Bloom near our cot?
10448See these poor souls from Africa, Transported to America: We are stolen, and sold to Georgia, will you go along with me?
10448See wives and husbands sold apart, The children''s screams!--it breaks my heart; There''s a better day a coming, will you go along with me?
10448Shall he a slave be bound, Whom God hath doubly crowned Creation''s lord?
10448Shall law be set aside, The right of prayer denied, Nature and God decried, And man called brute?
10448Shall men of Christian name, Without a blush of shame, Profess their tyrant claim From God''s own word?
10448Shall the sons of those sires that once spurned the chain, Turn bloodhounds to hunt and make captive again?
10448Shall tyranny triumph, and freedom succumb?
10448Then, answer, is the spirit Less noble or less free?
10448This is proud oppression''s hour; Storms are round us; shall we cower?
10448WHAT MEAN YE?
10448What lover of her fame Feels not his country''s shame, In this dark hour?
10448What mean ye that ye bruise and bind My people, saith the Lord, And starve your craving brother''s mind, Who asks to hear my word?
10448What mean ye that ye make them toil, Through long and dreary years, And shed like rain upon your soil Their blood and bitter tears?
10448What mean ye, that ye dare to rend The tender mother''s heart?
10448What mean ye, when God''s bounteous hand To you so much has given, That from the slave who tills your land Ye keep both earth and heaven?
10448What moves the mighty torrent, And bids it flow abroad?
10448What, but the voice of God?
10448When at the judgment God shall call, Where is thy brother?
10448Where are the hopes that my heart used to cheer?
10448Where are the patriots now, Of honest heart and brow, Who scorn the neck to bow To Slavery''s power?
10448Where human law o''errules Divine, Beneath the sheriff''s hammer fell My wife and babes,--I call them mine,-- And where they suffer, who can tell?
10448Where the sweet Joliba, Kisses the shore, Say, shall I wander By thee never more?
10448While beneath a despot''s power Groans the suffering slave?
10448While mothers are torn from their children apart, And agony sunders the cords of the heart?
10448While on every southern gale, Comes the helpless captive''s tale, And the voice of woman''s wail, And of man''s despair?
10448While our homes and rights are dear, Guarded still with watchful fear, Shall we coldly turn our ear From the suppliant''s prayer?
10448Who comes in his pride to that low cottage door-- The haughty and rich to the humble and poor?
10448Why does she raise that bitter cry?
10448Why hangs her head with shame, As now the auctioneer''s rough voice, So rudely calls her name?
10448Why stands she near the auction stand, That girl so young and fair; What brings her to this dismal place, Why stands she weeping there?
10448Will you, will you be colonized?
10448Will you, will you be colonized?
10448Ye spirits of the free, Can ye forever see Your brother man A yoked and scourged slave, Chains dragging to his grave, And raise no hand to save?
10448Zurima, Zurima, Am I forgot?
10448and are ye thus dumb?
10448are ye fit to be Mothers of the brave and free?
10448bend forsooth to southern rule?
10448can man e''er bind thee?
10448cringe and crawl to souther''s clay, And be the base, the supple tool, Of hell- begotten slavery?
10448how long?
10448my every heart- string cries, Dost thou these scenes behold In this our boasted Christian land, And must the truth be told?
10448say, What mean ye to the Judge of all To answer on that day?
10448she grasps a manly hand, And in a voice so low, As scarcely to be heard, she says,''My brother, must I go?''
10448when Slavery''ll cease, Then we poor souls can have our peace; There''s a better day a coming, will you go along with me?
10448when shall it be, That we poor souls shall all be free?
10448whose boast it is that ye Come of fathers brave and free; If there breathe on earth a slave, Are ye truly free and brave?
10448will right Triumph o''er wrong?
10448will you send me back?
10448will you send me back?
10448will you send me back?
10448will you send me back?
2127And can you now leave us?
2127But might not this very object, from whom you expected the purest happiness, have proved to you a source of the most cruel distress? 2127 Unhappy children,"cried Madame de la Tour,"where have you been?
2127When will you come and see us?
2127--"Why,"answered Paul,"can not I give you something that belongs to Heaven?
2127After this, who will dare to flatter himself that any thing he can write will be of service to his fellow men?
2127And will it not be more agreeable to return and find it in your own country?"
2127Are we then so near home?--at the foot of our own mountain?"
2127As soon as Madame de la Tour saw me coming, she eagerly cried,--"Where is my daughter-- my dear daughter-- my child?"
2127As soon as he perceived her, he called to her from a distance,--"Where is Virginia?"
2127As soon as they began to ascend, they heard voices exclaiming--"Is it you, my children?"
2127Before we were born into this world, could we, do you imagine, even if we were capable of thinking at all, have formed any idea of our existence here?
2127But can you, who know so much, tell me whether we shall ever be married?
2127But is there, in that external deference which fortune commands, a compensation for domestic happiness?
2127But where can you go to be happier?
2127But why do you wish to be distinguished from other men?
2127But why should I continue any longer to you the recital of this history?
2127By the_ Moniteur_ of the day, these works were compared to the celebrated pamphlet of Sieyes,--"Qu''est- ce que le tiers etat?"
2127Can any fortune be equal to your friendship?
2127Do you remember the day when we crossed over the great stones of the river of the Three Breasts?
2127Do you then believe that he would leave Virginia without recompense?
2127Encouraged by this mark of confidence I thus addressed him:"Father, can you tell me to whom those cottages once belonged?"
2127Has God then forsaken us?
2127Has He occasion to employ visible means to effect His purpose in this, whose ways are hidden in all His ordinary works?
2127Have we not enough in our garden already?
2127Have we not hitherto been happy?
2127He said to the goats, and their little ones, which followed him, bleating,--"What do you want of me?
2127If I should die what would become of you, without fortune, in the midst of these deserts?
2127If we wish to engage in commerce, can we not do so by carrying our superfluities to the town without my wandering to the Indies?
2127Is it not to acquire a fortune?
2127Is it then the calamity of Virginia-- her death and her present condition that you deplore?
2127Is it your own misfortunes, or those of Virginia, which affect you so deeply?
2127Is there any commerce in the world more advantageous than the culture of the ground, which yields sometimes fifty or a hundred- fold?
2127It was your wish, then, by concealing the truth to stimulate my ardour?
2127Margaret cried,"Where is my son?
2127Meanwhile Margaret said to Madame de la Tour,"Why do we not unite our children by marriage?
2127Paul rushed forward to throw himself into the sea, when, seizing him by the arm,"My son,"I exclaimed,"would you perish?"
2127Scarcely had she finished, when Margaret exclaimed,"What have we to do with your relations?
2127She often said to me,"If I were to die, what would become of Virginia without fortune?"
2127So, when I inquired of Paul, as we wandered amidst the plains of Williams,--"Where shall we now go?"
2127The passer- by on the road to Shaddock Grove, indeed, would sometimes ask the inhabitants of the plain, who lived in the cottages up there?
2127Upon this Paul said to the governor,--"My mother did apply to you, sir, and you received her ill."--"Have you another child, madam?"
2127We all ran towards him; and Madame de la Tour said to him,"My son, if you go, what will become of us?"
2127What European can picture happiness to his imagination amidst poverty and neglect?
2127What anger can resist her tears?
2127What brow is not unbent by her smiles?
2127What do you deplore with so much bitterness?
2127What joy is not heightened when it is shared by her?
2127What need has she of a rich relation?
2127What need, indeed, had these young people of riches or learning such as ours?
2127What shall I say to comfort them when I see them weeping for your absence?
2127What will become of my mother, who loves you with the same affection?
2127Wherefore do we come to these islands?
2127Why do you go so far, and climb so high, to seek fruits and flowers for me?
2127Why do you talk about your birth?
2127Why should we doubt the evidence of dreams?
2127Why then this regret?
2127Will he prevent me from flinging myself into the sea?--will he prevent me from following her by swimming?
2127Will you show me the way?"
2127You do not fear then to encounter the danger of the sea, at the sight of which you are so much terrified?"
2127You were opposed to it, it is true; but who would not have thought that Virginia''s voyage would terminate in her happiness and your own?
2127_ Paul._--But do you think that the women of Europe are false, as they are represented in the comedies and books which you have lent me?
2127_ Paul._--But where is the necessity of being rich in order to marry?
2127_ Paul._--But why not work?

2127_ Paul._--What do you understand by virtue?

2127_ The Old Man._--But, my dear friend, have not you told me that you are not of noble birth?
2127_ The Old Man._--You will act then like other men?--you will renounce your conscience to obtain a fortune?
2127answered Virginia,"with that great wicked man?
2127do you mean to say that the art which furnishes food for mankind is despised in Europe?
2127for what is our life, occupied as it is with vain and fleeting imaginations, other than a prolonged vision of the night?
2127if it were possible for me still to have a brother, should I make choice of any other than you?

12101An annual report of what?
12101Are they admitted as citizens?
12101Are we men?
12101But,continued Nott,"the solemn question here arises-- in what condition will this momentous change place us?
12101How forswear?
12101I have plowed, and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me-- and a''n''t I a woman? 12101 Just what is the light in which we are to regard the slaves?"
12101What can a man do to help such a suffering mass of humanity?
12101What of the darker world that watches? 12101 What, Peggy,"asked Price,"were you going to set the town on fire?"
12101What, is it about Mr. Hogg''s goods?
12101( Boston?)
12101After a while the slave raised the important question: Had not his residence outside of a slave state made him a free man?
12101And what was the Negro Problem?
12101And which is the world to choose, Christ or Mammon?
12101Approaching the cabin of a free Negro they asked,"Is this Southampton County?"
12101Are they admitted as property?
12101Asked in court by Gray if he still believed in the providential nature of his mission, he asked,"Was not Christ crucified?"
12101But whar did Christ come from?"
12101But, sir, where did the Greeks and the Romans and the Jews get it?
12101Could a bishop hold a slave?
12101Could any one use a young woman who wanted to work for her board?
12101Could our worst enemies or the worst enemies of republics, wish us a severer judgment?"
12101Could the Church really countenance slavery?
12101Dey talks''bout dis ting in de head-- what dis dey call it?"
12101Do we not owe it to civilized man to stand in the breach and stay the uplifted arm?...
12101Have we any other master but Jesus Christ alone?
12101How could one know that wakeful and sagacious enemies without would not discover the vulnerable point and use it for the country''s overthrow?
12101How many families of your town would take in a Negro man or woman, teach them, bear with them, and seek to make them Christians?
12101How many merchants would take Adolph, if I wanted to make him a clerk; or mechanics, if I wanted to teach him a trade?
12101How shall we measure such a life?
12101I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity?
12101I could work as much and eat as much as a man, when I could get it, and bear de lash as well-- and a''n''t I a woman?
12101If I wanted to put Jane and Rosa to school, how many schools are there in the Northern states that would take them in?...
12101If my cup wo n''t hold but a pint and yourn holds a quart, would n''t ye be mean not to let me have my little half- measure full?"
12101In any case the answer to the first question at once suggested another, What shall we do with the Negro?
12101In the first place, what is he worth, and especially what is he worth in honest Southern opinion?
12101In the same month George W. Cable answered affirmatively and with emphasis the question,"Does the Negro pay for his education?"
12101In this life was it also possible for the children of Africa to have a permanent and an honorable place?
12101Is He not their master as well as ours?
12101Is it finally to be an agency for the upbuilding of the nation, or simply one of the forces that retard?
12101Is she to abide by the principles that guided her in 1776, or simply seize her share of the booty?
12101Is there not land enough in America, or''corn enough in Egypt''?
12101It was said after the Civil War that he would not work except under compulsion; just how had he come to be regarded in the industry of the New South?
12101Maughan''s The Republic of Liberia, London( 1920?
12101Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
12101Query: Was it genuine statesmanship that permitted these people to feel that they must leave the South?
12101Raising her voice she repeated,"Whar did Christ come from?
12101Said St. Clair to Ophelia:"If we emancipate, are you willing to educate?
12101Shall we permit that blow to fall?
12101So did the king of Egypt doubt the very existence of God, saying,''Who is the Lord, that I should let Israel go?''
12101Somerset objected to this and in so doing raised the important legal question, Did a slave by being brought to England become free?
12101The question then arises: Just what is the relation that he is finally to sustain to other workingmen?
12101This is a duty: the whites do not trade with you; why should you give them your patronage?
12101Was he not made by the Creator to sit in the shade, and make the blacks work without remuneration for their services, to support him and his family?
12101What is its real promise in American life?
12101What right, then, have we to obey and call any man master but Himself?
12101What the Negro in the last analysis wonders is: Who was right, Livingstone or Rhodes?
12101What though before us lies the open grave?
12101What will my children say if I deprive them of so much estate?
12101What''s dat got to do with women''s rights or niggers''rights?
12101What, then, is this dark world thinking?
12101When despairing African fugitives do the same thing-- it is-- what_ is_ it?"
12101When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in?
12101Who can weigh love and hope and service, and the joy of answered prayer?
12101Who could believe that such a tremendous physical force would remain forever spell- bound and quiescent?
12101Why should they send us into a far country to die?
12101Will you despair, seeing Truth, and Justice, and Mercy, and God, and Christ, and the Holy Ghost, are on your side?
12101Would King accordingly enter into conference with the English officials with reference to disposing of any Negroes who might be sent?
12101_ But is there no civil law to protect me_?
12101he asked;"then why are they not admitted on an equality with white citizens?
12101my brothers, are we men?...
12101or naked, and clothed thee?
12101or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
12101then why is not other property admitted into the computation?"
44761Husband, where are you going?
44761And where is the church at the North, the members of which are all out- spoken Abolitionists?
44761Burns there no flame of indignation in your souls, at the remembrance of the insults you have received at the hands of the South?
44761But seriously, is it not a terrible state of things when the churches of our land are asleep over such a dreadful evil?
44761But the great question after all, is not what the Constitution says in words, but what use is made of it?
44761Come it must, did we say?
44761Does the church give it any support?
44761Does your minister every Sunday, exclaim against the horrid enormities of extending Slavery, to say nothing of it where it now is?
44761Few and far between were the voices of single ministers, in opposition to this course; and now that the deed is done, who exclaims against it?
44761Guilt, did we say?
44761He has indeed fought the letter, and perhaps come off victorious; but does he invalidate its_ spirit_?
44761How many representatives have seats in Congress, in consequence of aliens residing in their districts?
44761How, then, can you change it, in its important features, without, for the time being, dissolving the Union between the North and South?
44761If adultery was considered no disqualification for church membership, how long would it be before the land would be full of adulterers?
44761If the people had been allowed to act according to their own impulses, would Zachary Taylor have been elected President of this nation?
44761If this can be carried out without dissolving the Union, we should like to know it; but how can it?
44761In proof of this, let me ask who voted for Taylor at the recent election more than the great merchants of the North?
44761Is it any wonder, that it exists in so much power, and now seeks to extend its sway over new territory?
44761Is she not a polluting harlot, deceiving you by her gay attire, and attempting to seduce you from the path of virtue by her blandishments?
44761Is such a man a friend to the rights of northern laborers?
44761Is there scarcely a church where"no union with slave- holders"is made a test of admission?
44761It is considered a rare instance of courage if a minister dares to rebuke his people for having voted for Gen. Taylor?
44761Now, in the name of common sense, we ask what privileges have Slaves ever possessed, which aliens do not?
44761One enquiry more remains for us to answer, which is, how shall we dissolve the Union?
44761Our enquiry is not what the Constitution can be made to mean, but what is the natural and fair import of its language?
44761Recollect that the question was not, should Slavery exist at all?
44761The great question is, how shall this alteration of the Constitution be brought about?
44761This was the question brought before the people of this country at the last election, and how was it decided?
44761Was not Abbott Lawrence, the prince of northern manufacturers, loudest in his professions of zeal for"Old Zach?"
44761We would bring no railing accusations against the church; all we wish to know is, does it render any support to Slavery?
44761What a mighty argument it was in opposition to temperance, that church members made, sold and drank rum?
44761What church has passed resolutions in opposition to the recognition of such men as Christian ministers?
44761What gives 250,000 slave- holders power to hold 3,000,000 of Slaves in bondage?
44761What is it to alter the Constitution, but in fact to dissolve the Union?
44761What is the South, that ye should cling so closely to her?
44761What is there in the Constitution, after all, so much in favor of liberty, as to satisfy the sons of freemen?
44761What motive have they to put down a Slave insurrection?
44761What must be the humanity of these persons who can not feel for the poor Slave in such conditions as these?
44761What society has yet dismissed its minister for so doing?
44761What then are the props of Slavery?
44761What then is necessary to be done to remove this prop from under the colossal statue of Slavery?
44761What, then, did our fathers mean, by"other persons?"
44761What, then, is to be done in the matter?
44761When the voice of the watchman is but faintly heard, if at all, in rebuke of the most heaven daring of crimes?
44761Who comes out from the churches where these guilty men rule?
44761Who refuses to hear ministers preach or pray who voted for Gen. Taylor?
44761Who, then, give the 250,000 slave- holders of the South their power?
44761northern industry only protected by electing the greatest of idlers to the presidential chair?
10386And did not the whole Assembly of Grenada, as we collect from the famous speech of Mr. Pitt on the Slave Trade in 1791, affirm the same thing?
10386And from whence does such a system arise?
10386And have not free Negroes been at sundry times trepanned by such dealers, and been brought contrary to the laws of nations, and sold here as slaves?"
10386And to what was all this owing?
10386And what is it, after all, that I have been proposing in the course of the preceding pages?
10386And would not this be the case with our Negroes at this moment, if such a prospect were to be set before them?
10386And"Why,( immediately said one of the members,) why conformable to the laws of England?
10386And, first, will any one say that this case is not analogous to that which we have in contemplation?
10386Are no artificial grasses to be found in our islands, and is the existence of the scythe unknown there?
10386But how many days in the week does he work when he makes such annual earnings?
10386But how was he to accomplish this[14]?
10386But how, it will be said, do you prove, by establishing this fact, that it would be cheaper for our planters to employ free men than slaves?
10386But if a new Code of Laws be indispensably necessary in our colonies in order to secure a better treatment to the slaves, to whom must we look for it?
10386But if so, what would become of the argument of his honourable friend?
10386But if they would be overjoyed at this prospect, is it likely they would cut the throats of those, who should attempt to realize it?
10386But is it consistent with the laws of England, that any one man should have the power of forcing another to work for him without wages?
10386But it will be asked, where did the purchasers get them?
10386But what did Mr. Pitt say to them in the House of Commons?
10386But what was the cause of all this restlessness?
10386Can we doubt, that Providence would then bless their endeavours, and that_ salvation_ from their difficulties would be their portion in the end?
10386Can we forget that by the decree of Polverel, sanctioned afterwards by the Convention, all the slaves_ were made free at once_, or_ in a single day_?
10386For as it takes no other view of slaves than as_ cattle_, how is it applicable to those, whom we have so abundantly proved_ to be men_?
10386Has he not taken from those, who act wickedly, the power of discerning the right path?
10386How can such a wicked, such an ill- framed system succeed?
10386How did Toussaint succeed?
10386How then can persons in such a state be fit to receive their freedom?
10386How then can such a system ever answer?
10386If England, say they, abolished the slave trade_ from moral motives_, how happens it_ that she continues slavery_?
10386If this be not so, how happens it that you can not see the Slaves, belonging to such estimable men,_ without marks of the whip upon their backs_?
10386Is it consistent with the laws of England, that a man should be judged by any but his peers?
10386Is it consistent with the same laws, that a man should be deprived of the power of giving evidence against the man who has injured him?
10386Is there any thing unreasonable in this proposition?
10386It will be answered, that they got them from the sellers; and where did the sellers, that is, the original sellers, get them?
10386Now how are these expressions to be reconciled with the common notions in England of Negro labour?
10386Now what does he earn in the course of a year when he is working for himself?
10386The question then is, how have these fond expectations been realized?
10386To whom then are we to turn our eyes for help on this occasion?
10386What argument then can be produced for the continuation of a barbarous discipline there?
10386What evils has not this cruel association of terms produced?
10386What superior claims have you either upon Parliament or upon us, that you should have the preference?
10386What then becomes of the Roman law?
10386What was to have been expected but the dissolution of all civilized society, with the reign of barbarism and terror?
10386Whether he could not carry on the plantation- work through the stimulus of reward?
10386Whether he could not do away all arbitrary punishments and yet keep up discipline among the slaves?
10386Which then of the two competitors has the claim to preference by an English Parliament and an English people?
10386Why are not horses, or mules, or oxen, and carts or other vehicles of convenience, used oftener on such occasions?
10386Will not the courts in England admit such proof as is authorized by_ our slave laws_?"
10386or has he not so confounded their faculties, that they are for ever frustrating their own schemes?
10386or how many and which of these desirable effects have been produced?
9577I''ve law and gospel on my side, And who shall dare refuse me?
9577Who dares profane this house and day?
9577Beneath the slowly waning stars And whitening day, What stern and awful presence bars That sacred way?
9577Come these from Plymouth''s Pilgrim bark?
9577Had woman''s heart no feeling?
9577I started up,--where now were church, Slave, master, priest, and people?
9577Is that young Vane?
9577My brain took fire:"Is this,"I cried,"The end of prayer and preaching?
9577Shall we falter before what we''ve prayed for so long, When the Wrong is so weak, and the Right is so strong?
9577She raised a keen and bitter cry, To Heaven and Earth appealing; Were manhood''s generous pulses dead?
9577THE PASS OF THE SIERRA A SONG FOR THE TIME WHAT OF THE DAY?
9577The braggart Southron, open in his aim, And bold as wicked, crashing straight through all That bars his purpose, like a cannon- ball?
9577Then sound again the bugles, Call the muster- roll anew; If months have well- nigh won the field, What may not four years do?
9577Then sound again the bugles, Call the muster- roll anew; If months have well- nigh won the field, What may not four years do?
9577WHAT OF THE DAY?
9577What dark mass, down the mountain- sides Swift- pouring, like a stream divides?
9577What faces frown upon ye, dark With shame and pain?
9577What prove these, but that crime was ne''er so black As ghostly cheer and pious thanks to lack?
9577Who most deserves our blame?
9577Who shall henceforth doubt That the long- wished millennium draweth nigh?
9577Who, dimly beckoning, speed ye on With mocking cheer?
9577Why hate your neighbor?
9577Why mourn the quiet ones who die Beneath affection''s tender eye, Unto their household and their kin Like ripened corn- sheaves gathered in?
9577Ye sow to- day; your harvest, scorn And hate, is near; How think ye freemen, mountain- born, The tale will hear?
9941Did Mr. Leadbitter know when you left?
9941How and when did you learn to write?
9941Who wrote these names and weights on this slate, Charles?
9941You ran away, did you?
9941A gentleman was passing along the highway, when he was met by a poor maniac, who accosted him, saying,"What do you thank God for?"
9941Always praying?
9941Did the"law"prohibit me from studying lessons out of a book about Jesus, and learning to read about Jesus as my mistress did?
9941God had delivered him from the very tomb of death; why need I fear?
9941He looked at me with astonishment, and in surprise asked,"What are you doing here?"
9941How could I ever expect to escape to a country where I could be a free man?
9941How many of you ever think to thank God for sunshine or for reason?
9941If I, a slave, could accomplish this much, how much should the favored preachers of the country accomplish?
9941Strange, was it not?
9941Then what had we, poor wretches, to thank God for?
9941What had I to complain of?
9941What law?
9941What was to be done with me for my unpardonable crime?
9941What was to be my fate?
9941What would you have done if you had been in her place?
9941When my mistress sent my young mistresses to Jesus would n''t she send me along with them just the same as she sent me to school with them?
9941Why could n''t we lighten our young masters and mistresses of that labor as well as other kinds of labor?
9941Why not?
9941Why should_ I_ not study lessons in the school- house for my young mistresses?
9941Why was I so faithful and dutiful to my slave master?
9941what is that?"
11171''And Eliza, Sam?''
11171''And when will my trouble be over?''
11171''Art thee sure?''
11171''Burnt up?
11171''But you love your father and mother?''
11171''But, mother, if I do get asleep, you wo n''t let the bad man take me?''
11171''Can you drive horses, Tom?''
11171''Cousin, what in the world have you brought that thing here for?''
11171''Do n''t I make a pretty young fellow?''
11171''Do n''t know?''
11171''Do n''t you see how much Miss Ophelia has done for you?
11171''Do n''t you think so?''
11171''Do you know who made you?''
11171''For you to teach, did n''t I tell you?''
11171''Get it?
11171''Halloa, there, Simeon,''he shouted,''what news?
11171''Have you ever heard anything about God, Topsy?''
11171''How can she?''
11171''How can you let her do that?''
11171''How did you come?''
11171''How long have you lived with your master and mistress, then?''
11171''How old are you, Topsy?''
11171''Is it a great way off?''
11171''Is it a year, or more, or less?''
11171''Is n''t it nice?''
11171''Is that you, Sam?''
11171''Is there a boat that takes people across the river now?''
11171''Law, you niggers,''she would go on,''does you know you''s all sinners?
11171''Laws, now, is it?''
11171''Mas''r George?
11171''Mother, I do n''t need to keep awake, do I?''
11171''Not while I am in trouble, Tom?''
11171''Now cousin, what is this for?
11171''Poor Topsy,''said Eva,''why need you steal?
11171''So, Uncle Tom, where are you going?''
11171''Sold him?''
11171''There,''said Miss Ophelia,''will you tell me now you did n''t steal the ribbon?''
11171''Tom,''said Aunt Chloe,''why do n''t you go too?
11171''Topsy,''Miss Ophelia would say, when her patience was at an end,''what makes you behave so badly?''
11171''Topsy,''said Miss Ophelia,''do n''t you know it is wicked to tell lies?''
11171''Was your master unkind to you?''
11171''Was your mistress unkind to you?''
11171''Well, now, tell me,''said Miss Ophelia,''have you taken anything else since you have been in the house?
11171''Were you a slave?''
11171''What can you do?
11171''What could make you leave a good home, then, and run away, and go through such danger?''
11171''What did you burn them up for?''
11171''What for, pussy?
11171''What has Tom done that master should sell him?''
11171''What has she been doing now?''
11171''What in the world made you tell me you took those things, Topsy?''
11171''What is it?''
11171''What is it?''
11171''What is missy''s name?''
11171''What is the matter now?''
11171''What is the matter, mother?''
11171''What is this?''
11171''What is to be done with her, then?''
11171''What makes you behave so?''
11171''What makes you so naughty, Topsy?''
11171''What makes you so sober?''
11171''What''s this?''
11171''When?''
11171''Where are they?''
11171''Where is he?''
11171''Why are you in such a hurry?''
11171''Why do n''t you try to be good?
11171''Why not?''
11171''Why not?''
11171''Why, Eva, where did you get your necklace?''
11171''Why, Tom, do n''t you think that you are really better off as you are?''
11171''Why, that''s Miss Feely''s ribbon, an''t it?
11171''Why, what''s the matter?''
11171''Why?
11171''You''re going to be good, Topsy, you understand?''
11171''You''re sure, an''t you, mother?''
11171Are they coming?''
11171Are you going to use him for a rattle- box, or a rocking- horse, or what?''
11171Besides, what does he want with his freedom?
11171But I want to ask you, whose is she-- yours or mine?''
11171But, O Lord, how can I?
11171Could n''t you go all around and try and persuade people to do right about this?
11171Did nobody ever tell you?
11171Do n''t you know me?''
11171Do n''t you love anybody, Topsy?''
11171Do you see?''
11171How could it a got into my sleeve?''
11171Is it very far off, is Canada''?
11171Is n''t there any way to have all slaves made free?''
11171Now, what''s your name?''
11171She sprang up saying,''Oh, my Harry, have they got him?''
11171Suddenly their old black man- of- all- work put his head in at the door and said,''Will missis come into the kitchen?''
11171Well, what else?''
11171What did you do for your master and mistress?''
11171What do you mean?
11171What makes you so sad?''
11171What on earth did you want to bring this one for?''
11171What was to be done with Topsy?

11422Good? 11422 I do n''t read much now since my eyes ai n''t so good but tell me whatever become of Teddy Roosevelt?

7137''Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before? 7137 ''The question,''Mr. Lincoln replied,''was,"Why does man have breasts?"''
7137And suppose they could be induced by a Proclamation of Freedom from me to throw themselves upon us, what should we do with them? 7137 But why should Emancipation South, send the freed people North?
7137If, then, for a common object, this Property is to be sacrificed, is it not just that it be done at a common charge? 7137 If, then, we are at some time to be as populous as Europe, how soon?
7137Is it doubted, then, that the plan I propose, if adopted, would shorten the War, and thus lessen its expenditure of money and of blood? 7137 Is it true, then, that Colored people can displace any more White labor by being Free, than by remaining Slaves?
7137It is not,''Can any of us imagine better?'' 7137 Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a Proclamation as you desire?
7137The question is, if the Colored people are persuaded to go anywhere, why not there? 7137 What good would a Proclamation of Emancipation from me do, especially as we are now situated?
7137Why should they leave this Country? 7137 And why may we not continue that ratio far beyond that period? 7137 And, in any event, can not the North decide for itself, whether to receive them? 7137 Are they not already in the Land? 7137 But do you think they are so perfectly moulded to their state as to be insensible that a better exists? 7137 Can I have fifty? 7137 Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws? 7137 Can their self love be so totally annihilated as not frequently to induce ardent wishes for a change? 7137 Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends? 7137 Could I get a hundred tolerably intelligent men, with their wives and children, and able to''cut their own fodder''so to speak? 7137 Could the one, in any way, greatly disturb the seven? 7137 Has it more waste surface by mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts, or other causes? 7137 How can we feed and care for such a multitude? 7137 If such persons have what will be an advantage to them, the question is, whether it can not be made of advantage to you? 7137 Is it doubted that it would restore the National authority and National prosperity, and perpetuate both indefinitely? 7137 Is it inferior to Europe in any natural advantage? 7137 Is it less fertile? 7137 Is it not a time when the measure is most likely to produce danger and mischief to the Country at large? 7137 Is there a single Court or Magistrate, or individual that would be influenced by it there? 7137 Object whatsoever is possible, still the question recurs,''Can we do better? 7137 Of all the times when an attempt was ever made to carry this measure, is not this the most inauspicious? 7137 President?'' 7137 The only question now was, how to get rid of it? 7137 What could I do? 7137 Where is it? 7137 Why may not our Country at some time, average as many? 7137 Will liberation make them any more numerous? 7137 Will the galling comparison between themselves and their masters leave them unenlightened in this respect? 7137 Will you not embrace it? 7137 Would my word free the Slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the Rebel States? 7137 You ask, what is the general''s opinion, upon this subject? 7137 You here are Freemen, I suppose? 7137 You will ask in this view, how do you consult the benefit of the slaves? 7137 but,''Can we all do better?'' 11454 ''And they arrived accordingly?''
11454''But who told thee this piece of news?'' 11454 ''By himself, or in partnership?''
11454''Did thee direct him as he requested?'' 11454 ''Did thee follow them?''
11454''Did thee speak to them?'' 11454 ''Hast thou heard of the old saying,''said Mr. Tyson,''Hell is paved with good intentions?
11454''How can you say that, and be a slave- holder?'' 11454 ''I understand,''said he,''that there are persons confined in this place entitled to their freedom?''
11454''Is he engaged in the traffic now?'' 11454 ''Is he not in partnership,''said Mr. Tyson,''with----?''
11454''Thee do n''t know of their having dissolved?'' 11454 ''Was any body with them?''
11454''Was the hack close, or were the curtains down?'' 11454 ''Were they gagged?''
11454''Were two boys among the number?'' 11454 ''What o''clock last night was it when thee saw the carriage?''
11454''You have been wrongly informed,''said the leader of the quartette;''and, besides, what business is it of yours?'' 11454 And are we to wait, it will be inquired, till this distant and uncertain period for the extinction of war?
11454And will it be said that all this is visionary and impossible? 11454 But by whom, and in what way it will be asked, is this example to be set?
11454But what are the means we shall use? 11454 To what well founded objections would such a treaty be subject?
11454''Did Henry Clay buy thee there?''
11454''Did Henry Clay buy thee there?''
11454''How many children hadst thou then?''
11454''How many children hast thou?''
11454''How old art thou?''
11454''How old is that?''
11454''Is there a school for colored people on Henry Clay''s plantation?''
11454''It is gone?''
11454''Was there any witness who could prove its payment?''
11454''We said nothing to them,''said Kin- na;''why did they treat us so?
11454''Well,''said Mr. Tyson,''what is there new in thy way of business; I suppose it continues as usual to be a good business?''
11454''Were the slaves any worse off, since the question of abolition has been agitated?''
11454''Where are they?''
11454''Where are they?''
11454''Where is my blanket?''
11454''Where is my shirt?''
11454''Where wert thou raised?''
11454''Who?''
11454''Wilt thou shew me his improved cattle?''
11454''Yes; where is he?''
11454**"But in_ what way_ are we to make the experiment?
11454After inspecting the machinery, the fabrics, and the great wheel, one of them turned to me and said,''Did man make this?''
11454And in what cause can the energies of Christian benevolence be more appropriately exercised?
11454Are they not, in fact, still less under the control of moral obligation?
11454But, on the other hand, how is it possible for England to extend her foreign trade while the present restrictions continue?
11454From what motive then, do we uphold a traffic, which is the curse of China, the curse of India, and a calamity to Great Britain?
11454Fu- li, on a former evening, being asked,''What is faith?''
11454He inquired,''if any of them were entitled to their freedom?''
11454How important is it that all the offices in a prison should be filled by persons of true piety; and where can such be more usefully employed?
11454How is it possible to evade the conclusion that Christianity flourishes most, when it is unencumbered and uncorrupted by state patronage?
11454I asked him whether, if I had brought a barrel of lard on board, he would have troubled me to prove property?
11454I asked''How old art thou?''
11454I asked,''Will they make all free?''
11454I said to him,''Canst thou read?''
11454If he would leave such a kind master, what might not be expected of the oppressed field hand?
11454Is dat like my brother?
11454Is dat like my father?
11454Is dat like my mother?
11454Is dat like my sister?
11454Is it not all the natural consequence of your electing slave- holders and their abettors to the highest offices of your State and nation?
11454Is not the true conclusion from such premises, the very reverse of this?
11454Is not this a pitiful business?"
11454Men are every where inquiring why the sacrifice was made?
11454No, my friend, they can no more reconcile to themselves the idea of sitting down by the side of a colored African,( American?)
11454On approaching the house I saw a colored man, to whom I said,''Where wert thou raised?''
11454The answer is,''You have drank them,''''Where is my gun?''
11454Thee was talking about a case of kidnapping; well?''
11454What are these States but the greatest colonies ever planted by Great Britain?
11454What can we do?
11454What favored portion of the United Kingdom could compare its religious statistics with New England?
11454What law governs the hereditary transmission of such traits?
11454What must be the power of that delusion which can render intelligent and philanthropic men the victims of such a fallacy?
11454What must be their wants, when he himself is even without a shirt?"
11454What part has the restrictive system had in producing this result?
11454Where can we find an anti- slavery organization more potential, and so dignified, as was the convention of American women?
11454Why a mighty city was convulsed with violence?
11454Why a noble hall was burned by incendiaries in the view of gazing thousands?
11454Why not?
11454Why the''shelter for orphan children''was set on fire, and why the houses of our citizens were surrounded by a ruffian mob?
11454Why, then, will not Christians use the talents and influence given them from above to effect this consummation?
11454Will the Southern still accept the shadow without the substance of equal and confederate powers?
11454Will the decision be less consistent with justice, from being impartial and disinterested?
11454[ A] But for what do they want gold but to purchase other supplies than food?

19949And do you really mean to say, Captain Templeton,said Mary,"that piracy can be made an honorable business?"

21449Are you in earnest, Mr McDermont?
21449Are you my Uncle Michael?
21449Are you speaking the truth?
21449Are you the only person in the house?
21449But mother, where is mother?
21449But, Massa Mike, we try and keep togedder, wo n''t we?
21449Can those be Indians?
21449Can you afford us shelter for the night, friend?
21449Can you go on, Mike?
21449Can you guide us to the nearest house where we can obtain what we require?
21449Do you hope ever to tame it, Uncle Denis?
21449Do you speak of Silas Bracher?
21449Had we not better stop?
21449Have I been long here?
21449Have you found mother? 21449 I ask you, once more, have you got the slave, and if you have, will you give him up?"
21449I hope you are satisfied with Swampyville?
21449I''m very glad that they did find you, Dio; but how did you happen to be in such a condition?
21449Indeed I am, why should I do otherwise?
21449Mike, does it strike you that the water has risen higher than it was when we first encamped? 21449 Of what wonder do you speak?"
21449Oh, Patrick, must you positively cross that wide extent of water?
21449Oh, suppose a bear and her cubs are hid away anywhere, what shall we do?
21449Probably,observed Mr Tidey;"but what were your orders, should you fail to recover the black?
21449Then perhaps you will say why you come to pay me a visit?
21449Then you do n''t deny having harboured the slave we are in search of?
21449There must be a fire somewhere near the shore,I whispered,"people are encamped there, depend upon it; how shall we proceed?"
21449Very good possibly, but where are we to find a market for our produce? 21449 Victory, victory?"
21449Wha''r Massa Denis?
21449What are these funny creatures, I wonder?
21449What are we to do with Rose?
21449What brings you here?
21449What can have become of the rascals?
21449What do you advise then?
21449What do you say, Tidey? 21449 What has happened up at the farm, Mike?"
21449What has happened, Dio?
21449What has happened, Mr Tidey?
21449What have you got there?
21449What you say, you boys?
21449What''s the matter?
21449What''s your name, my good fellow?
21449Where are the saddle- bags?
21449Where are they?
21449Where can that come from?
21449Where were you wanting to go, my poor fellow?
21449Whereabouts is it?
21449Who are you, villains, who dare thus attack a free and independent citizen?
21449Who dare?
21449Who dare?
21449Who dares thus attack my house?
21449Who knocks?
21449Who you strangers, whar you come from?
21449Why did you come here?
21449Will you take five hundred dollars for the boy?
21449You no gib up de poor slave to his hard massa?
21449Young man,he said at length,"what is your name?"
21449At length he asked, in a low voice,"Have you ever heard your uncle or mother speak of a brother, who came over to America with them?"
21449Did she survive?
21449Do let me go?"
21449Do n''t you remember me?"
21449Do you think you could sit on my horse, while we gallop over the ground?"
21449Do you understand my object?"
21449Hurrah, hurrah?"
21449I ask you whether or not you have a negro boy anywhere about your premises?
21449I say, youngsters, who is your father?
21449It will then be asked, how can a bird get in?
21449Mr Tidey, has poor Dio been retaken?"
21449My first impulse was to fly and try to escape, but in what direction should we go?
21449One of them took Mr Tidey''s horse, and another was about to take the rein of mine, when he exclaimed--"What creature have we here?
21449Was this valley to be our home, or were we to cross the second range, into a still more fertile region?
21449We did it well, did n''t we, Master Mike?"
21449Wha''r is he?"
21449What say you now to twenty thousand dollars?
21449What should we do?
21449Where is she?"
21449Will you accompany me, and try to bury them decently?
21449You understand me, Dio?
21449You will not let him escape?"
21449You will promise me?"
21449asked my father;"has poor Dio been recaptured?"
21449can anything have happened to dem?"
21449dat is Rose?"
21449dis niggar Dio know you; nebber forget you, massa; you remember de poor slave niggar who pulled de little boy out of de water?"
21449exclaimed Dio;"what she want?"
21449exclaimed Peter,"is dat you?"
21449is she coming back to Lily soon?"
21449my young cock sparrow, to whom do you belong?"
21449now, ye coward, would ye be afther usin''your knife on a woman?"
21449shall we have to cross all those mountains?"
21449what is that among the bushes?
21449you seen dem?
21449youngsters, have you seen a nigger- boy running in this direction?"
7138***On the vote to repeal the Fugitive Slave Law, how did that( Democratic) side of the House vote?
7138Is there no Justice in putting an end to human Slavery? 7138 Was it possible to lose the Nation and yet preserve the Constitution?
7138What says the Preamble to the Constitution? 7138 What,"said he, referring to Mr. Ross,"has been the course of that gentleman and his Party on this floor in regard to voting supplies to the Army?
7138Whether such language is not Treason?
7138*** On the subject of arming Slaves, of putting Negroes into the Army, how has my colleague and his Party voted?
7138A Freeman?
7138And Farnsworth met this idea-- which had also been advanced by Messrs. Ross, Fernando Wood, and Pruyn-- by saying:"What constitutes property?
7138And is it not needed whenever it helps us and hurts the Enemy?
7138And then, having succeeded in convincing himself of Republican failure, he exultingly exclaimed:"But why enumerate?
7138And we are asked by one of my colleagues,( Mr. Cox) does the gentleman from New York intend to call us Traitors?
7138And, above all, is it consistent with any notion, which the mind of man can conceive, of human Liberty?"
7138Are you for it?
7138Are you for it?
7138But how can we attain it?
7138Can we Abolish Slavery in the Loyal State of Kentucky against her will?
7138Do you think differently?
7138Does it appear otherwise to you?
7138Does not the Fugitive Slave Law affect the Black soldier in the Army who was a Slave?
7138How did that side of the House vote on the question of arming Slaves and paying them as soldiers?
7138In what way can that Compromise be used to keep Lee''s Army out of Pennsylvania?
7138Is it not a mere usurpation without any known mode of justification, under any existing Code of Laws, human or Divine?"]
7138Is there no danger to the Tranquillity of the Country in its existence?
7138Is there, has there ever been, any question that, by the Law of War, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?
7138It has the sanction of God''s own Apostle; for when Paul sent back Onesimus to Philemon, whom did he send?
7138It is only a week ago last Monday, that a Bill was introduced here to punish guerrillas*** and how did my colleague vote?
7138Look to the illustrations which the times now afford, how, in the illustration of that sentiment, do we differ from the Black man?
7138May it not interfere with the common Defense and general Welfare?
7138Warming up, he proceeded to say:"Can the Union be restored by War?
7138What has been their course in regard to raising money to pay the Army?
7138What would be its fate there?
7138What''vested right''has any man or State in Property in Man?
7138Why better after the retraction than before the issue?
7138Why should they do anything for us if we will do nothing for them?
7138Would it be less than stealing?"
7138and"whether it is in order to talk Treason in this Hall?"
7138or is it not manifest that there is no just title?
31425A Government which can make white men slaves?
31425And does such a case constitute a rule of decision for this court-- a case to be followed by this court?
31425And how does the power of Congress stand west of the Mississippi river?
31425And if it was intended to secure these rights only to citizens of the United States, how has the Constitution here described such persons?
31425And what law of slavery does either take with him to the Territory?
31425And why not?
31425But if we are to turn our attention to the dark ages of the world, why confine our view to colored slavery?
31425But what court has not changed its opinions?
31425But where there is no such law, can the master control the will of the slave by force?
31425But why are the African race, born in the State, not permitted to share in one of the highest duties of the citizen?
31425But, how is the case different on the return of the plaintiff to the State of Missouri?
31425By virtue of what law is it, that a master may take his slave into free territory, and exact from him the duties of a slave?
31425Can Congress determine the condition and_ status_ of persons who inhabit the Territories?
31425Can anything be more despotic?"
31425Can the master sell him?
31425Could the plaintiff contract a lawful marriage there?
31425Did the Constitution of the United States deprive them or their descendants of citizenship?
31425Does not the master assent to the law, when he places himself under it in a free State?
31425Does the master carry with him the law of the State from which he removes into the Territory?
31425Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law?
31425For who, it may be asked, is a citizen?
31425Had the Circuit Court of the United States jurisdiction to hear and determine the case between these parties?
31425Has it empowered Congress to enact what free persons, born within the several States, shall or shall not be citizens of the United States?
31425Has the law of Illinois any greater force within the jurisdiction of Missouri, than the laws of the latter within that of the former?
31425Has this impressive lesson of practical wisdom become lost to the present generation?
31425Have the people of either any right to disturb the relations of the other?
31425How do we read the Constitution?
31425If a State court may do this, on a question involving the liberty of a human being, what protection do the laws afford?
31425If it be assigned to a man from a free State, may he coerce the slave by virtue of it?
31425If it be said to be those laws respecting slavery which existed in the particular State from which each slave last came, what an anomaly is this?
31425If it had jurisdiction, is the judgment it has given erroneous or not?
31425If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution?
31425If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade?
31425If there be doubt, what rule of construction has been established in the slave States?
31425If they were not, is Scott himself free by reason of his removal to Rock Island, in the State of Illinois, as stated in the above admissions?
31425If, then, this clause does contain a power to legislate respecting the territory, what are the limits of that power?
31425In selecting those who are to enjoy these national rights of citizenship, how are they described?
31425In view of these facts, let us inquire how the question stands by the terms of the Constitution, aside from the treaty?
31425In what does the distinction consist?
31425Is it not a practical instrument?
31425Is it personal or real property?
31425Is it transferable?
31425Is she bound to recognise and enforce the law of Illinois?
31425Is there less comity existing between State and State, or State and Territory, than exists between the despotic Governments of Europe?"
31425May it be negotiated, as a promissory note or bill of exchange?
31425Moreover, if the right exists, what are its limits, and what are its conditions?
31425Mr. Sloan:"Can anything be more repugnant to the principles of just government?
31425On the decease of the master, does the slave descend to his heirs as property?
31425Or is it an indefinable fragment of sovereignty, which every person carries with him from his late domicil?
31425Shall we not cherish and maintain it?
31425Suppose a slave escape from a Territory where slavery is not authorized by law, can he be reclaimed?
31425The first is, what was the law of the Territory into which the master and slave went, respecting the relation between them?
31425The remaining question for consideration is, What is the law of the State of Missouri on this subject?
31425This is the agreed case; and can it be inferred from this that Scott and family returned to Missouri voluntarily?
31425Thus Chief Justice Marshall( in United States_ v._ Bevans, 3 Wheat., 386) says:"What, then, is the extent of jurisdiction which a State possesses?
31425Under such a jurisdiction, may the colored man be levied on as the property of his master by a creditor?
31425Upon what principle, then, can it be denied to the State of Missouri?
31425Was he, together with his family, free in Missouri by reason of the stay in the territory of the United States hereinbefore mentioned?
31425What can be more conclusive than this?
31425What do the character and_ status_ of citizen import?
31425What gives the master the right to control the will of his slave?
31425What is the law of Missouri in such a case?
31425What judge has not changed his?
31425What shall this thing be denominated?
31425When the military force of the Union shall conquer a country, may not Congress provide for the government of such country?
31425Why was he set free in Illinois?
31425Will it be said that the slave is taken as property, the same as other property which the master may own?
31425and does that enable him to coerce his slave in the Territory?
7136I ask the Senator to recollect, too, what, save to send aid and comfort to the Enemy, do these predictions of his amount to? 7136 Shall one battle determine the fate of empire, or a dozen?--the loss of one thousand men, or twenty thousand?
7136Why should this Property be exempt from the hazards and consequences of a rebellious War? 7136 And then cried the orator- his voice rising to a higher key, penetrating, yet musical as the blast from a silver trumpet:What would he have?
7136Are they not intended for disorganization in our very midst?
7136Are they not intended to animate our enemies?
7136Are they not intended to destroy our zeal?
7136Are they not intended to dull our weapons?
7136Are we to predict evil, and retire from what we predict?
7136Are we to stop and talk about an uprising sentiment in the North against the War?
7136As a political question and a question of humanity, can I receive the services of a father and mother, and not take the children?
7136But what have we seen?
7136Can we afford to send them forward to their masters, to be by them armed against us, or used in producing supplies to sustain the Rebellion?
7136Can we do anything more?
7136How can this be done?
7136How can we, by conceding what you now ask, relieve you and the Country from the increasing pressure to which you refer?
7136May they not pronounce all Slaves Free?
7136May they not think that these call for the abolition of Slavery?
7136Or would he conduct this War so feebly, that the whole World would smile at us in derision?"
7136Shall we send a flag of Truce?
7136Sir, are they not words of brilliant, polished Treason, even in the very Capitol of the Nation?
7136Sir, how can we make Peace?
7136Sir, how can we retreat?
7136These speeches of his, sown broadcast over the Land, what clear distinct meaning have they?
7136Upon what terms?
7136What Commissioners?
7136What of future hopes?
7136What of past glories?
7136What should be done with them?
7136What then?
7136What then?
7136What will become of Constitutional Government?
7136What will become of public Liberty?
7136What would he have?
7136Where is to be your boundary line?
7136Where the end of the principles we shall have to give up?
7136Who shall treat?
7136Who would go?
7136Why deprive him of supplies by a blockade, and voluntarily give him men to produce them?
7136Will he shrink from armed Insurrection?
7136Will his State justify it?
7136Will its better public opinion allow it?
7136Will the Senator yield to Rebellion?
7136Will you not embrace it?
7136and will they not be warranted by that power?
7136or one hundred million or five hundred million dollars?
21472And how came you to be here?
21472And so you want to make Christians and civilised men of those black Africans of whom you spoke?
21472And your wife-- what is her name?
21472Are you going to remain with us?
21472But how can any one have a claim upon me? 21472 But who take care ob de house, de pigs, and de garden, and de poultry?"
21472Can not our commander interfere?
21472Can you make her out, Ned? 21472 Come, Sally, what is it?"
21472Do they, then, intend to attack the village and make slaves of the unfortunate people?
21472Do you see that brute?
21472Does n''t the book I brought you last week say that? 21472 Good- bye, little girl,"said Mr Shank, as he stood with his hand on the door- latch;"you''ll come again soon?"
21472Has Mrs Jones got twins? 21472 Have n''t we got something to serve as a flag of truce?"
21472Have none of you seen him?
21472Have they killed him, do you think?
21472Have you no suspicion on the subject?
21472He go search for my boy, what I do better dan go look for him?
21472Hot, do you call it?
21472How dare you oppose your opinion to mine, youngster?
21472How is Mr Shank?
21472How is sister Sally-- all right I hope?
21472I do n''t understand that; if we are not to hate our enemies, who and what are we to hate?
21472I thought, friend Sayd, that you were going on a hunting and trading expedition?
21472I wonder who he can be?
21472I wonder who it can come from?
21472In what direction do you propose to proceed?
21472Is Abdullah going to trade with the inhabitants of yonder village?
21472Is it about Ned? 21472 Is the gun all ready forward?"
21472Is there no hope for these poor people?
21472Is this the way you Arabs treat your followers?
21472Look out, Stone; what is the dhow about? 21472 Surely you have not joined company with these men- stealers?"
21472Then do you blame those who hoard up money?
21472What business have they to make slaves of their fellow- creatures?
21472What do you think now, Charley, of the strangers?
21472What does he say?
21472What has happened?
21472What is that?
21472What should have made you fancy I should have been otherwise?
21472What''s his name?
21472Where are your papers?
21472Where is Cox?
21472Where is Mr Garth?
21472Where is Ned?
21472Who can all these people be?
21472Who''s there?
21472Whom can it be from?
21472Why did n''t he come in and sit down until you were ready to go?
21472Why, is n''t he one of the slaver''s crew?
21472Why, where is it?
21472Why,said Ned to the lieutenant,"has uncle not written?"
21472You come from de` Ione,''massa?
21472You do n''t mean to say that our Ned is dead?
21472Your papa, Mary?
21472All ready there forward?"
21472Are you ready to acknowledge him as your little boy Chando?"
21472But how are you going to get back, young lady?"
21472Can you find my mother, that we may be together and be once more happy as we were before he was carried away to become a slave?"
21472Can you, however, assist me?"
21472Hab him gone in nudder ship?"
21472Had she came out to relieve the"Ione"?
21472Has he been found?
21472Have many of the poor fellows been saved?"
21472Have you run away from your ship?"
21472How came you to be with him?
21472I saw that the` Ione''had arrived and was to be paid off, so was looking out for you; but where is Ned?
21472I wonder how he can manage to spend his time all by himself?"
21472Is he coming back?"
21472O my young master, can you take me to him?
21472One of the first questions he put on his arrival was,"Have you told them, father, about poor Ned?"
21472Reeds flanked the opposite bank of the stream; should he be able to force his way through them?
21472She did not add,"I wonder what the poor old man can find so pleasant in his existence as to make him desire to live?"
21472Should they halt, how many would be alive in the morning?
21472The latter almost let his load drop in his agitation as he asked,"Is Baraka-- is my father still alive?
21472The lieutenant was right in his conjectures; in another minute a voice was heard shouting,"Dat you, Massa Pack an''Massa Ned?"
21472Was he your father?"
21472What can have delayed them?
21472What do you think of this young man?
21472What do you think, Sally?
21472What made you think of that, youngster?"
21472What would Aunt Sally say if I was to go back without you, Ned?"
21472Where am I?"
21472Where could he be all this time?
21472Where were the funds to come from?
21472Who shall I tell my uncle you are, sir?"
21472Would Mr Hanson and Charley discover him, or would they return without tidings of his fate?
21472Would Tom return with his son to Kamwawi, or would they accompany the English back to the coast?
21472You will think of me, Mary, with pity rather than scorn when I am gone?"
21472You''ll come and see me again some day, and bring another nice pudding, wo n''t you?"
21472Your aunt must be a rich woman to afford so dainty a dish for a poor man like me?"
21472do you come all this way alone merely to visit a wretched being like me?"
21472exclaimed Ned, when he heard the name;"that surely is the village to which Chando told us he belonged?"
21472had you a hand in saving the passenger?"
21472has n''t he come home with you?"
21472he shouted,"do n''t you know me?
21472must you go, little girl?
21472old Shank the miser?
21472or is Miss Simpkins married?
21472or is poor old Shank dead and not left enough to bury him, as I always said would be the case?"
21472what shall him do, what shall him do?"
21472where are you?"
35481But look beneath all this display and luxury, and what do we see there? 35481 But why do I talk of death?
35481[ 20]What is the result?
35481''Was it a boy?''
35481''What in the name of wonder were they then?''
35481''Who was she, then?''
35481Am I, then, entitled to demand of you for the nostrum the whole of your property, more or less?
35481And what a mighty system is this now become?
35481And what is our fashion?
35481And why are the others, Atheists, like Owen and Fourier, attempting to invent new and better forms of society?
35481And, why are his doctrines popular with the"higher classes"in New York?
35481Are there not every where millions of arms always ready to offer themselves at reduced wages?
35481Are they not Nature''s own?
35481Are they ominous of such unbridled lawlessness and lust as marked the days before the Flood?
35481Are they signs of the days not unlike these that are to precede the coming of the Son of Man?
35481Are they, therefore, slaves?
35481Are we suffering, and yet contented?
35481At what point does a man begin to take an undue advantage of his fellow man in a commercial transaction?
35481Besides, what is liberty?
35481But are not these children breathing a pure atmosphere?
35481But how do these same men, women and children pass five months of the year?
35481But how shall we class wives, children, wards, apprentices, prisoners, soldiers and sailors?
35481But we will be asked, How is this to be effected?
35481But what becomes of that slavery of the ancients and of China, where the slave, by actual contract, sells himself?
35481But where is the ground for supposing that such would be the case?
35481Can abolitionists solve these social problems?
35481Commotion in the winds?
35481Did not the emancipation of European serfs, or villiens, in all instances, injure their condition as a class?
35481Does it work well?
35481Does this depress them?
35481Does this elevate them and render them happy?
35481Have men considered whither all this is tending, and what it certainly enough betokens?
35481How comes it that your distinguished neighbor, Gerrit Smith, proposes to make land as free for the enjoyment of all as air and water?
35481If so, why not form all your institutions on that model?
35481If your government is to be a constituted anarchy, what issue can it have?
35481In fact, is it not notorious that they help them to emigrate to America, and often pull down their cabins and huts, in order to drive them off?"
35481In his Tenth, or Golden Satire, JUVENAL comes to a like conclusion, after having indulged in like speculations: Nil ergò optabunt homines?
35481Is it not a spot to be chosen by those who are intending to while away existence among the never tiring sweets of a country life?
35481Is not"_ laissez- faire_,"in English,"Every man for himself, and devil take the hindmost,"your whole theory and practice of government?
35481Is our house tumbling about our heads, and we sitting in conscious security amidst the impending ruin?
35481Is their''s not Christianity melting into infidelity?
35481Is there any other safe way of investing wealth, or bestowing charity?
35481It is a time to make the dullest man consider, and ask himself, Whence he came?
35481Meantime, what is it that is taking place in hundreds of instances, and every day, throughout the entire area of the manufacturing region?
35481Mr. Smith says:"Why should not this monopoly be broken up?
35481My labor never flags; And what are its wages?
35481Now, what man in society is not seeking to attain this situation?
35481Quid autem Cæcilio, Plantoque dabit Romanus, ademptum Virgilio, Varioque?
35481Shall we not in boyhood sojourn and linger at Athens and at Rome, nor in manhood travel into France and Italy?
35481That phantom of grisly bone?
35481The two murderers had escaped:"Why,"he asks,"were not these men apprehended?
35481Was she a girl herself?''
35481What am I in equity entitled to charge-- what should be the_ limit of price_ upon my labor?
35481What are soldiers and sailors but bondsmen?
35481What is the convict but a slave, who by his crimes has earned his right to be kept well and safe from the elements and want?
35481What matter to an employer is the death of a hired laborer?
35481What may such things betoken?
35481What raging of the sea?
35481What then was his situation?
35481What would become of the poor slaves if they were free?
35481What would they lose in liberty and equality?
35481What, then?
35481Where is the other end of this succession?
35481Whither he is bound?
35481Who believes that Irish landlords would take the responsibility of supporting the peasantry, on the condition of their becoming slaves?
35481Who will send his property to a place where he can not rely on its being protected?
35481Who will voluntarily establish himself in a country which to- morrow may be in a state of disturbance?
35481Why all this, except that free society is a failure?
35481Why does, much your ablest philosopher, Stephen Pearle Andrews, propose plans of reform still more sweeping?
35481Why is Western Europe now starving?
35481Why is there faith in nothing, speculation about everything?
35481Why is this unsettled, half demented state of the human mind co- extensive in time and space, with free society?
35481Why, then, should they be happier than the peasant, who pines away his dreary existence on bread and potatoes and water?
35481Why?
35481Would not small entails prevent this?
35481and do you keep cows in this shed?''
35481and was the woman in the house their mother?''
35481and why has it been fighting and starving for seventy years?

35481how long will it permit its flatterers to deceive and betray it?
35481neither boy nor girl?
35481none of these worse than Cassandra vaticinations-- why none of this panic, terror, confusion and flight, in Slave Society?
35481shaking of earth?
35481was it a boy I was speaking to?''
35481what mutiny?
35481yet should we not refrain from expressing the sad feelings which the first sight of these infant shadows has awakened?
7133Are you prepared for such a change in the institutions of your country? 7133 What are the uses of decisions of Courts?
7133Will you ever submit to a warfare waged by the Southern States to establish Slavery in Illinois? 7133 *** But you may ask me what are these rights and these privileges? 7133 *** How has the planting of Slavery in new countries always been effected? 7133 *** This being so, what is Judge Douglas going to spend his life for? 7133 *** What can authorize him to draw any such inference? 7133 *** What is fairly implied by the term Judge Douglas has used,''resistance to the decision?'' 7133 *** Will it be any more valid? 7133 ***I ask Mr. Lincoln how it is that he purposes ultimately to bring about this uniformity in each and all the States of the Union?
7133And why the hasty after- indorsement of the decision, by the President and others?
7133Can the Union endure under such a system of policy?
7133Does timidity ask WHEN?
7133Has Congress any power over the subject of Slavery in Kentucky or Virginia or any other State of this Union?
7133How is he going to do it?
7133How will he do it?
7133I submit to you, my fellow- citizens, whether such a line of policy is consistent with the peace and harmony of the Country?
7133If one man says it does not mean a Negro, why not say it does not mean some other man?
7133In what do our new Territories now differ in this respect from the old Colonies when Slavery was first planted within them?
7133Is he going to spend his life in maintaining a principle that no body on earth opposes?
7133Is it worth our while to continue this union of States, where the North demands to be our masters and we are required to be their tributaries?
7133Is that what you mean?
7133My friends, is it possible to preserve Peace between the North and the South if such a doctrine shall prevail in either Section of the Union?
7133Now, who was it that did the work?
7133Suppose he does re- enact the same law which the Court has pronounced unconstitutional, will that make it Constitutional?
7133The question, then, naturally arises, what are those rights and privileges, and what is the nature and extent of them?
7133To mob law, to partisan caucuses, to town meetings, to revolution?
7133To whom shall you appeal?
7133WHAT NEXT?
7133Well, so much being disposed of, what is left?
7133Well, suppose he is; what is he going to do about it?
7133What Next?
7133What do those terms mean when used now?
7133What do those terms mean?
7133What good does it do to pass a second Act?
7133What has become of it?
7133What has become of that Squatter Sovereignty?
7133What has now become of all his tirade about''resistance to the Supreme Court?''"
7133What is Popular Sovereignty?
7133What is it?
7133What was Squatter Sovereignty?
7133What were they but a clear indication that the framers of the Constitution intended and expected the ultimate extinction of that institution?
7133Where is the remedy when you refuse obedience to the constituted authorities?"
7133Who defeated it?
7133Who heard of any such thing, because of the Ordinance of''87?
7133Who is so bold as to do it?
7133Who, then, shall come in at this day and claim that he invented it?
7133Why declare that within twenty years the African Slave Trade, by which Slaves are supplied, might be cut off by Congress?
7133Why even a Senator''s individual opinion withheld, till after the Presidential election?
7133Why the delay of a re- argument?
7133Why the incoming President''s advance exhortation in favor of the decision?
7133Why the outgoing President''s felicitation on the indorsement?
7133Why was the Court decision held up?
7133Why was the amendment, expressly declaring the right of the people, voted down?
7133Why were all these acts?
7133Will he be able to convince the Court that the second Act is valid, when the first is invalid and void?
7133Will that do any good?
7133because of the Missouri Restriction because of the numerous Court decisions of that character?
12422''And does Psyche know this?''
12422''And were you flogged, Louisa?''
12422''Did your mother tell you so?''
12422''Do you think it wrong, Israel,''said I,''to work on Sunday?''
12422''Missis, we hab um piccaninny-- tree weeks in de ospital, and den right out upon the hoe again--_can we strong_ dat way, missis?
12422''Oh,''said I,''Louisa; but the rattlesnakes, the dreadful rattlesnakes in the swamps; were you not afraid of those horrible creatures?''
12422''Some persons are free and some are not-- do you know that, Mary?''
12422''Well, but he acknowledged Renty as his son, why should he deny these?''
12422''What, on the Sabbath day, Israel?''
12422''Whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye also unto them?''
12422''Who is your mother, Renty?''
12422''Who their father?''
12422''Who told you so?''
12422''Why did you come home at last?''
12422''Why, had he observed any insubordination in those who did?''
12422''Why, how is that?''
12422''You nigger-- I say, you black nigger,--you no hear me call you-- what for you no run quick?''
12422( How do you do?
12422After all,_ why_ are we contrived to laugh at all, if laughter is not essentially befitting and beneficial?
12422But how is such a state of things to endure?--and again, how is it to end?
12422But how shall I describe to you the spectacle which was presented to me, on my entering the first of these?
12422But what will you?
12422But, after all, what can he do?
12422By the by, E----, how do you think Berkshire county farmers would relish labouring hard all day upon_ two meals_ of Indian corn or hominy?
12422By this time, what do you think of the moralities, as well as the amenities, of slave life?
12422Can you conceive a more wretched picture than that which it exhibits of the conditions under which these women live?
12422Did I tell you of that poor old decrepid creature Dorcas, who came to beg some sugar of me the other day?
12422Did you ever read( but I am sure you never did, and no more did I), an epic poem on fresh- water fish?
12422Did your parson never tell you that your conscience was for yourself and not for your neighbours, Israel?''
12422Do n''t you think one might accept the rattlesnakes, or perhaps indeed the slavery, for the sake of the green peas?
12422Does not that sound very like the very best sort of free pride, the pride of character, the honourable pride of honesty, integrity, and fidelity?
12422Fits and hard labour in the fields, unpaid labour, labour exacted with stripes-- how do you fancy that?
12422Have you visions now of well- to- do farmers with comfortable homesteads, decent habits, industrious, intelligent, cheerful, and thrifty?
12422Here my child''s white nurse, my dear Margery, who had hitherto been silent, interfered, saying,''Oh, then you think it will not always be so?''
12422How can we keep this man in such a condition?
12422How is such a cruel sin of injustice to be answered?
12422How shall I describe Darien to you?
12422I am afraid, E----, this woman actually imagines that there will be no slaves in Heaven; is n''t that preposterous now?
12422I asked him, for I was curious to know, how they managed to administer the Sacrament to a mixed congregation?
12422I asked how they could be expected to know it?
12422I make no comment; what need, or can I add, to such stories?
12422I say, I am a free person, Mary-- do you know that?''
12422I was rather dismayed at the promptness of this reply, and hesitated a little at my next question,''Who is your father?''
12422I wonder if my mere narration can make your blood boil, as the facts did mine?
12422I, of course, went on with''whose Molly?''
12422Is not that a peculiar poetical proposition?
12422K----?''
12422K----?''
12422K----?''
12422Moreover, born and bred in America, how should he care or wish to help it?
12422O----?''
12422Or why, if good really has prevailed in it, do you rejoice that it is speedily to pass away?
12422Our doctor''s wife is a New England woman; how can she live here?
12422Query: Did she really mean hinges-- or angels?
12422The women who visited me yesterday evening were all in the family- way, and came to entreat of me to have the sentence( what else can I call it?)
12422Was not that a curious reward for a slave who was supposed not to be able to read his own praises?
12422Was not that striking from such a poor old ignorant crone?
12422Well may you, or any other Northern Abolitionist, consider this a heaven- forsaken region,--why?
12422What would one of your Yankee farmers say to such abodes?
12422Where shall any mass of men be found with power of character and mind sufficient to bear up against such a weight of prejudice?
12422Who, on such estates as these, shall witness to any act of tyranny or barbarity, however atrocious?
12422Would you take the one with the other?
12422how can he help it all?
12422or''Why do you believe such trash; do n''t you know the niggers are all d----d liars?''
12422said I,''what is that?''
12422saying as she took up my watch from the table and looked at it,''Ah?
12422shouted in an imperious scream, is the civillest mode of apostrophising those at a distance from them; more frequently it is''You niggar, you hear?
12422that greets me whichever way I turn, makes me long to stop my ears now; for what can I say or do any more for them?
12422vous dirai- je, maman?''
12422we coloured people eat it, missis;''said I,''Why do you say we coloured people?''
12422what can she do for these poor people, where I who am supposed to own them can do nothing?
12422what for me wish to be free?
12422who can be bold to say, I could have done no more, I could have done no better?
38855Are you a Union man?
38855Are you telling the truth?
38855Are you the person from whom Sherman''s battery took its name?
38855At what points?
38855Did not God command the Israelites to buy slaves from the Canaanitish nations, and to hold them as their property for ever?
38855Did the jury that tried him, acquit him?
38855Did you desert?
38855Did you say that you were opposed to the slavery which existed in the time of Christ?
38855Did you tell Mr. Creath that you knew some negroes who were better, in every respect, than some white men?
38855Do you believe that any one can call the spirits?
38855Had the Federals a large force at that place, and who was in command?
38855Have you a Federal pass?
38855How does it read?
38855I suppose it is all right with you?
38855In the Destrict?
38855Kin you talk Funnyography? 38855 May I write a letter to my wife?"
38855Parson Aughey, is Phonography a Abolition fixin?
38855Parson Aughey, what is Funnyography?
38855The question I desire to propose is this-- How many preceded Noah in leaving the ark?
38855These irons,said he,"are very insecure; who helped you to put them in this condition?"
38855Well, Sam, what trade''ll ye gin?
38855What does he want?
38855What is your father- in- law''s name?
38855What is your profession?

38855Where were you born?
38855Who reported me, and where are your witnesses?

38855''sposen I had a young filly, and you a old mar, ye would n''t ax an even trade, would ye?"
38855Are we prepared for all the evils attendant upon a fratricidal contest-- for bloodshed, famine, and political and moral desolation?
38855Are we prepared for civil war?
38855Are we prepared for such a result?
38855As I retired, I heard one picket say to the other,"Who is that?"
38855Did any of the prisoners know of or aid you in your escape?"
38855Do you know, sir, where the witch of Endor lived?"
38855Does she propose to refund the purchase- money?
38855Guilty, helpless, wretched as thou art, what is thy plea why sentence of eternal death should not be pronounced against thee?
38855Have they complied with the provisions of the Fugitive Slave Law?
38855Have you a pass?"
38855Have you ever been within the Federal lines?"
38855How and when did you succeed in leaving that prison?"
38855How can ye dwell with devouring fire?
38855How happens it that you look at matters in a different light from your relatives?"
38855How long shall the wicked triumph?
38855I often thought of the couplet in the old song--"The hounds are baying on my track, Christian, will you send me back?"
38855I, in a peremptory tone, addressed him, in quick succession, the following interrogatories:"Where are you going?
38855In the first place, did you ever say that you did not believe that God ordained the institution of slavery?"
38855My proof is in Philemon, verses 15 and 16, where the apostle asks that Onesimus be received, not as a servant, but as a brother beloved?"
38855Myself in chains, my life declared forfeited, ought we not all to be deeply impressed with the necessity of immediate preparation to meet our God?
38855Now, my fellow- citizens, what shall we do to resist Northern aggression?
38855Of what worth was their declaration if they had remained inactive?
38855Parson Aughey, are you in favour of the South?"
38855Suppose you was to preach in Phonography, who''d understand it?--who''d know what was piped or harped?
38855The Colonel, turning round, glared upon me with eyes inflamed with passion and liquor, and thus addressed me:"Are you a Union man too?"
38855The South has made the North rich, and what thanks do we receive?
38855The following colloquy now took place between the commander of the post, the Provost Marshal, and myself:"Why did you attempt to leave us?"
38855The inquiry is often made, what becomes of the soul after death, and where does it await the general judgment?
38855The question has been asked, is there any Union sentiment in the South?
38855The question is often asked, is slavery sinful in itself?
38855To whom do you belong?
38855What has Mississippi lost by the Union?
38855What patriot would hesitate for a moment which to choose?
38855What room will you be pleased to have?"
38855What, under these circumstances, could resist the progress of Halleck to the Gulf?
38855When the political issue is made, shall we, or shall we not, grant license to sell intoxicating liquors as a beverage?
38855Where do we obtain the right of secession?
38855Where have you been?
38855Who ever heard of a government breaking to pieces without an arduous struggle for its preservation?
38855Who originated Mormonism, Millerism, Spirit- rappings, Abolitionism, Free- loveism, and all the other abominable_ isms_ which curse the world?
38855Who wishes to endure it?
38855Who would be a craven- hearted, cowardly, villanous submissionist?
38855Who would have gone to an officer who was apparently aiding and abetting the rebellion, ably and assiduously, to communicate his Union sentiments?
38855Whose life has been endangered, or who has lost his liberty by the action of the Government?
38855Why should we secede, and thus destroy the best, the freest, and most prosperous government on the face of the earth?
38855Will not God visit for this?
38855Will secession give us any more slave territory?
38855Will secession remedy this grievance?
38855Will ye play, then?
38855Wodent it all spill out, and leave''em dry, and whar ed we be?
38855Would her territory revert to France?
38855Would not Mississippi cut a sorry figure among the nations of the earth?
38855Would she become a territory under the jurisdiction of the United States Congress?
38855and where does them folks live what talks it?"
38855believe that the spirits can be called?"
38855how can ye take up your abode, your eternal abode, in everlasting burnings?
38855it''s going to rain; do n''t you hear the thunder?"
38855says Pat,''are you charmed at the first note?''"
38855what soundeth-- is creation Groaning for its latter day?
38855will ye dally With your music and your wine?
7134But what more was done? 7134 How will it be with New England?
7134What else was done at the very same session? 7134 Why was not this taken and accepted?
7134''Must a Government of necessity be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence?''
7134*** Who did it?
7134And if such is the case, what are we to hope in the future?
7134And to this more than fair proposition to the Southerners-- to this touching appeal in behalf of Peace-- what was the response?
7134And what was the response of the South to this generous and conciliatory message?
7134And whose the sacrilegious hand that dared be first raised against his Country and his Country''s flag?
7134Another, Mr. Charles E. Lex( a Republican), speaking of the Southern People, said:"What, then, can we say to them?
7134Benjamin, why do you not vote?
7134But the matter regarded by him of larger moment-- the safety of the Union-- how about that?
7134But what would be the effect upon South Carolina?
7134Can aliens make treaties, easier than friends can make laws?
7134Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
7134Can we account for it to ourselves, gentlemen?
7134Do not its principles and theories become daily more fixed in our practice?
7134Do you mean that I am to concede the benefits of the political struggle through which we have passed, considered politically, only?
7134Do you mean that I am to give up my convictions of right?
7134Do you mean that we are to deny the great principle upon which our political action has been based?
7134Do you suppose we shall do nothing, even upon the sea?
7134Do you visit the North in the Summer?
7134From your Custom- houses?
7134How does it happen that we have not had unanimity enough to agree on any measure of that kind?
7134How many letters of marque and reprisal would it take to put the whole of your ships up at your wharves to rot?
7134How?
7134If Rebellion and bloodshed and murder have followed, to whose skirts does the responsibility attach?
7134In that event, could you stand the reaction feeling which the suffering commerce of Charleston would probably manifest?
7134Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
7134It forces us to ask:''Is there in all republics, this inherent and fatal weakness?''
7134Not that he feared the North-- but the South; how would the wayward, wilful, passionate South, receive his proffered olive- branch?
7134Now, what do we find?
7134One party to a contract may violate it-- break it, so to speak; but does it not require all, to lawfully rescind it?
7134Sir, is not this a remarkable spectacle?
7134The immediate Secessionists, or those who are opposed to separate State action at this time?
7134Was it Mr. Clark?
7134What better Compromise could have been made?
7134What more?
7134When the navigation laws cease to operate, what will become of your shipping interest?
7134When this Tariff ceases to operate in your favor, and you have to pay for coming into our markets, what will you export?
7134When your machinery ceases to move, and your operatives are turned out, will you tax your broken capitalist or your starving operative?
7134Which party will prevail?
7134Who is responsible for it?
7134Who, then, has brought these evils on the Country?
7134Whose fault was it?
7134Why not save this Proposition, and see if we can not bring the Country to it?''
7134Would we not be in the wrong?"
7134Would you not lose that in which your strength consists, the union of your people?
7134what do you export?
7134what more than we have expressed in the resolutions we have offered?
7134where will their revenue come from?
7135Dependenceupon whom, and with regard to what?
7135Descendants of the same people inhabit the country; yet what is the reason of this vast difference? 7135 Now, I ask any plain common- sense man what was the meaning of that?
7135Question.--And of course an abandonment of the purpose for which you were there? 7135 Question.--At that time General Patterson felt it was so important to attack Johnston that he had determined to do it?
7135Question.--Behind his intrenchments? 7135 Question.--Did not General Patterson issue orders at Bunker Hill, the night before you marched to Charlestown, for an attack on the Enemy?
7135Question.--Even if you had received a check there, it would have prevented his junction with the forces at Manassas? 7135 Question.--That order was not countermanded until late on Tuesday, the 16th, was it?
7135Question.--You understood General Patterson to be influenced to make that attempt because he felt there was a necessity for detaining Johnston? 7135 Question[ by the Chairman].--Did he[ Patterson] assign any reason for that movement?
7135What troops are those?
7135*** What cause is there for further alarm in the Southern States, so far as the Territories are concerned?
7135*** What is now the case?
7135***"''Question.--In what direction would Johnston have had to move to get by you?
7135***"You may ask, why does the South want us to do it by Constitutional Amendment, when we have just done it voluntarily by Law?
7135******"What more, then, is demanded?
7135********* Question[ by the Chairman].--Would there have been any difficulty in preventing Johnston from going to Manassas?
7135*********"Question.--While at Bunker Hill, the night before you left there, were any orders issued to march in the evening?
7135**********''Question[ by the Chairman].--And that left Johnston free?
7135--said Davies--"and can they get through that road?"
7135And how is it, that Johnston gets away from Patterson so neatly?
7135And what can that purpose be, but to throw his augmented right upon our left, at Blackburn''s Ford, and so, along the ridge- road, upon Centreville?
7135And what have we seen?
7135And what was the chief cause or pretext for discontent at that time?
7135And when does he do it?
7135Continuing, he said:"What more do the Southern States want?
7135Do we not know it to be so?
7135Do we not know that they have been anxious for a change of Government for years?
7135Do we not know this?"
7135Gooch].--Was it not the intention to move from Bunker Hill to Winchester?
7135Has he not stolen a march and sent re- enforcements toward Manassas Junction?
7135Have we not at the South, as well as the North, grown great, prosperous, and happy under its operations?
7135How long have we been at War?
7135I said to Mr. Pickens,''What next do you propose we shall do?
7135In answer to his compliments about the comfortable location I had made, I said:''Very comfortable, General, when shall we move on?''
7135Odell].--Had you any such understanding with Patterson?
7135Odell].--You covered his movement?
7135Our position for renewing the action the next morning was excellent; whence, then, our failure?
7135Simply that a Constitutional Amendment shall be adopted, affirming-- what?
7135Was it that they believed a Monarchical form of government was incompatible with civil liberty?
7135Was it that they were opposed to a Monarchical form of government?
7135Was it the firing on our flag at Sumter?
7135Was that the first adversary passage?
7135Were it his own, would he not have said in"making"it, instead of in"stating"it?
7135What American is not proud of the result?
7135What can it be?
7135What is War?
7135What more can any man demand?
7135What would our condition be in the event of the greatest calamity that could befall this Nation?"
7135Where is Rome, once the mistress of the World?
7135Why disguise this great truth?
7135Why is this so?
7135Why not?
7135Why this sad difference?
7135Will it be said the South required in addition to this, laws of Congress to protect Slavery in the Territories?
7135Will that success continue?
7135are we to tell the People that Republicanism is a failure?
7135why have not the People of that Heaven- favored clime, the spirit that animated their fathers?
31844And all our evidence of what it really was, had rested upon reports of what Mr. A, and Mr. B, members of the convention, had been heard to say?
31844And by them only orally reported to the people?
31844And if it be such a guaranty to foreigners and aliens, is it no guaranty to those born under the constitution?
31844And only this oral report of it had been adopted by the people?
31844And the question now is, whether it was constitutionally established, authorized or sanctioned by the constitution of the United States?
31844And what are these extraneous circumstances?
31844And what is the object of resorting to these flying reports for evidence, on which to change the meaning of the constitution?
31844And what is this guaranty?
31844And what is"a republican form of government?"
31844And what( in criminal cases,) is the"trial by jury?"
31844And why do they not?
31844And why?
31844Are we prepared to admit the principle, that there is no real distinction between law and force?
31844But are law and force therefore identical in their essence?
31844But is such the real character of the constitution?
31844But suppose that_ all_ the members of the convention had participated in these intentions-- what then?
31844But why do the partizans of slavery resort to the debates of the convention for evidence that the constitution sanctions slavery?
31844By it, did we thus really avow to the world that we were a nation of pirates?
31844CHAPTER I.--WHAT IS LAW?
31844Can any proposition be plainer than this?
31844Can the state governments determine who may, and who may not compose the militia of the"United States?"
31844Could they have united to sustain the divine right of kings?
31844Did we covenant, in this clause, to wage war against the rights of man?
31844Do they not come from those who have ever hitherto claimed that the general government was bound to interfere to_ put down republicanism_?
31844Does this look as if the constitution guarantied, or even recognized the legality of slavery?
31844Especially when the constitution makes no discrimination of persons?
31844For what is"a state?"
31844Has any such transfer ever been shown?
31844Have they not authority also to grant letters of marque and reprisal, and to secure the prizes, to a ship''s crew of blacks, as well as of whites?
31844If it does not intend all, who were intended by"the people of the United States?"
31844If not, have they the prerogative of abolishing a man''s right of property in his own person?]
31844If so, on what principle, or for what equivalent, did she do it?
31844If, then, any persons were made citizens by the adoption of the constitution, who were the_ individuals_ that were thus made citizens?
31844If, then, the act of absolution was lawful, does it not necessarily follow that the principles that legalized the act, were also law?
31844Is it a guaranty of slavery?
31844Is it a thing of no moment, whether we have given such a pledge to free or to slave states?
31844Is it not that the meaning of those who make them may be known with the most absolute precision of which language is capable?
31844Is it not to get rid of all the fraud, and uncertainty, and disagreements of oral testimony?
31844Is it the supreme physical power?
31844Is it to change the instrument from a dishonest to an honest one?
31844Is there no difference in the cost and hazard of defending one or the other?
31844Is there, in any of the constitutions of this country, any general authority given to the governments, to make slaves of whom they please?
31844Is there, then, any particular authority for making slaves of the children of those, who have previously been held in slavery?
31844Is this such an union as we bargained for?
31844Must the government of the United States find a man''s pretended owner, or only the man himself, before they can tax him?
31844Now, who can, in good faith, say that the_ words alone_ of the constitution come up to this point?
31844On what other principle of government could they all have united?
31844Or are they obliged first to ask and obtain the consent of those private individuals who may pretend to own the inhabitants of this nation?
31844Or the largest concentration of physical power, whether it exist in one man, or in a combination of men?
31844Or the supremacy of the Christian, Mahometan, or any other church?
31844Or upon Mr. Madison''s notes of the debates of the convention?
31844Or upon flying reports of the opinions which a few individuals, out of the whole body of the people, had formed of it when they adopted it?
31844Or upon the oral reports made by the several members to their respective constituents, or to the respective state conventions?
31844Suppose such were the intention of the constitution-- what follows?
31844That law, I mean, which, and which only, judicial tribunals are morally bound, under all circumstances, to declare and sustain?
31844The feudal privileges of nobles?
31844Those rights of person, property,& c., which one human being has, as against other human beings?
31844Upon whom shall this tax be levied?
31844WHAT IS LAW?
31844Was it"nominated in the bond,"that we should be cut off from these the common rights of human nature?
31844What is the object of written constitutions, and written statutes, and written contracts?
31844What is"the supreme power,"that is here spoken of, as the fountain of law?
31844What other bond could have been agreed upon?
31844What reason could there be in applying the term"free"to the word"citizen,"if the word"free"were used as the correlative of slavery?
31844What then is LAW?
31844What, then, are some of these rules of interpretation?
31844Where is their contrary history?
31844Who are the persons that come within this definition, as here used?
31844Who are the"peers"of a slave?
31844Who can estimate the loss of wealth to the nation from these causes alone?
31844Who, but congress, have any right to say who may send, or receive letters by the United States posts?
31844Who, then, established the constitution?
31844Why this uniform concurrence of the judiciary with the legislature?
31844Why, then, do not men say distinctly, that the constitution_ did_ sanction slavery, instead of saying that it_ intended_ to sanction it?
31844Why, then, do they not apply the same law in behalf of the African?
31844Why, then, is it not the legal meaning?
31844[ Footnote 25: From whom come these objections to the"propriety"of the general government''s interfering to maintain republicanism in the states?
31844[ Footnote 7: Have parliament the constitutional prerogative of abolishing the writ of_ habeas corpus_?
31844_ that law is the rule, principle, obligation or requirement of natural justice_?
31844and to ascribe_ only_ an innocent meaning to language whose mere verbal import might be susceptible of both an innocent_ and_ criminal meaning?
31844and who must be held responsible for its payment?
31844from an unjust to a just one?
31844or the freedom of speech and the press?
31844that our territory should be a harbor for pirates?
31844the trial by jury?
13602Ai n''t it a sight?
13602Auntie,she was asked,"have you time to tell me something about slavery times?"

26123And how do men exert themselves to restrain this corresponding right of their fellow men?
26123And is not_ calm, rational Christian_ discussion the only proper method of securing this end?
26123And what, then, is the rule of duty?
26123And will the South stand alone in that burning hour?
26123Are not the minds of men thrown into a ferment, and excited by those passions which blind the reason, and warp the moral sense?
26123Are not the northern and southern sections of our country distinct communities, with different feelings and interests?
26123Are they not rival, and jealous in feeling?
26123Are we not approaching the very verge of the precipice?
26123But it may be asked, is there nothing to be done to bring this national sin of slavery to an end?
26123But there the question still recurred,''Are these things true?''
26123But what is the private character of Robert Owen or Fanny Wright?
26123But where do the laws of mind and experience oppose the terrific tendencies of Abolitionism that have been portrayed?
26123Can she not with propriety urge such inquiries as these?
26123Can we ask our Heavenly Parent to protect us from temptation, while we recklessly spread baits and snares for our fellow- men?
26123Can we not already hear the roar of the waters below?
26123Do not Northern men owe a debt of forbearance and sympathy toward their Southern brethren, who have been so sorely tried?
26123Does she not regard them as enemies, as reckless madmen, as impertinent intermeddlers?
26123Have not Abolitionists been sending out papers, tracts, and agents to convince the people of the North of the sins of the South?
26123Have they not refrained from going to the South with their facts, arguments, and appeals, because they feared personal evils to themselves?
26123How will the exasperated majority act, according to the known laws of mind and of experience?
26123How would Northern men conduct under such provocations?
26123If it is asked,"May not woman appropriately come forward as a suppliant for a portion of her sex who are bound in cruel bondage?"
26123Is a woman among those who oppose Abolition movements?
26123Is a woman surrounded by those who favour the Abolition measures?
26123Is every man to constitute himself a judge of the amount of time and interest given to the proper investigation of truth by his fellow- man?
26123Is every man to sit in judgment upon his fellow- man, and decide what are his intellectual capacities, and what the measure of his judgment?
26123Is every man to take the office of the Searcher of Hearts, to try the feelings and motives of his fellow- man?
26123Is it at all probable that the other sex will afford even a moderate portion of this supply?
26123Is not now the time, if ever, when our stern principles and sound common sense must wake to the rescue?
26123Is not the South in a state of high exasperation against Abolitionists?
26123Is not this example exactly parallel with the exertions of the Abolitionists?
26123Must the internal slave- trade, a trade now ranked as piracy among all civilized nations, still prosper in our bounds?
26123Must we give up free discussion, and again chain up the human mind under the despotism of past ages?
26123Must we rush on to disunion, and civil wars, and servile wars, till all their train of horrors pass over us like devouring fire?
26123Now what is it that makes a man cease to be a slave and become free?
26123Now what is the evil to be cured?
26123She can urge such inquiries as these: Ought not Abolitionists to be treated as if they were actuated by the motives of benevolence which they profess?
26123The inspired interrogatory,"thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself?"
26123The question never should be asked, what_ ought_ a word to mean?
26123What are the plans, hopes, and expectations of Abolitionists, in reference to their measures?
26123What is the end of these things to be?
26123What is the thing that is to be done to end slavery at the South?
26123What shall be done when the post- office stops its steady movement to divide its efforts among contending parties?
26123What shall be done with our canals and railways, now the bands of love to bind us, then the causes of contention and jealousy?
26123What shall be done with our navy and all the various items of the nation''s property?
26123What umpire will appear to settle all these questions of interest and strife, between communities thrown asunder by passion, pride, and mutual injury?
26123What were his measures?
26123What will be the commotion and dismay, when all our sources of wealth, prosperity, and comfort, are turned to occasions for angry and selfish strife?
26123When she sends forth the wailing of her agonies, shall not the North and the West hear, and lift up together the voice of wo?
26123Where is the advocate of any measure that does not suffer sneers, ridicule, contempt, and all that tends to depreciate character in public estimation?
26123Where is the partisan that is not attacked, as either weak in intellect, or dishonest in principle, or selfish in motives?
26123Where is this army of teachers to be found?
26123Who can go from the presence of Infinite Purity after such an investigation, to"take his brother by the throat?"
26123Who is there that in this comparison, can not find cause for the deepest humiliation?
26123Who shall divide our public lands between contending factions?
26123Will it not still more alarm and exasperate?
26123Will not fathers hear the cries of children, and brothers the cries of sisters?
26123Will the appearance of a similar body in their own boundaries have any tendency to soothe?
26123Will the increase of their numbers tend to allay this exasperation?
26123Will the terrors of insurrection sweep over the South, and no Northern and Western blood be shed?
26123but simply, what is the meaning generally attached to this word by those who use it?
1052And is there something in this book about all the pictures?
1052Any thing?
1052Dear sister, did n''t you promise me To help me shout and praise him? 1052 Dem bright little shiny tings, honey, in de firm''ment?

1052A gentleman of milder aspect was seated on a chair, intently eying Tidy as she approached, and she heard him say,--"Can you recommend her, Turner?
1052Ah, who cares to watch and smile over a sleeping infant, save its mother?
1052And are the slaves any better off?
1052And did my Sovereign die?
1052And from that flowing fountain Drink everlasting love?"
1052And how was she to get these?
1052And who are these that hold their fellow- creatures in such cruel bondage, starving body, mind, and soul with such indifference and inhumanity?
1052Been sick?"
1052Before she was aware, she was humming, in a low voice, the once familiar words:--"Oh, when shall I see Jesus, And reign with him above?
1052Brought up as she had been, accustomed to comparatively neat clothing, good food, cheerful associates, and light work, how could she live here?
1052But Henry, my darling, why did you ask such a question?
1052But how could she make herself ready?
1052By what system have they become so reduced?
1052CAN such be Christians?
1052Can it be possible that God''s own children can participate in such a wickedness; can buy and sell, beat and kill, their fellow- creatures?
1052Can there be a greater wrong?
1052Can we expect them to be otherwise?
1052Can we wonder that she felt that even the Lord had forgotten her?
1052Come here, child; what''s yer name?"
1052Could she be a slave?
1052Did n''t her eyes sparkle?
1052Did n''t her hands twitch with excitement, as she picked it up and carried it to her mistress?
1052Did n''t she care much about it?
1052Did n''t ye neber hear''bout him afore?"
1052Did she accomplish her purpose?
1052Do YOU think God would need to make another heaven for her?
1052Do n''t you think so?"
1052Do n''t you want poor old Dinah to go to the same heaven that we do?"
1052Do you know what that means?
1052Do you really think she is capable of filling the place?"
1052Do you think it strange that such a condition seemed attractive, and that she was willing to make great efforts and run fearful risks to reach it?
1052Does any one of our little readers ask why Miss Matilda did not free the child then?
1052Don''ye h''ar him singin''?

1052How was she to learn without a teacher or a book?

1052I shall be glad for her,--sha''n''t you, darling?"
1052I will tell you?
1052I wonder if they are all happy?
1052If there are TWO heavens, I would like to be admitted to hers,--wouldn''t you?
1052Is it a lame horse?"
1052Is there any thing, dear children, that can penetrate the whole being with such rapturous joy as the love of Christ?
1052Laws, don''ye know?
1052Little reader, did you ever make up your mind to do any thing and fail?
1052Now say, what is it?"
1052Now, how can she change, mamma?"
1052Oh, to starve the mind!--Is it not far worse than to starve the body?
1052Reckon I''ll call her Tidy; dat ar''s my sister''s name, and she''s got dat same sweet look''bout de eyes,--don''t you think so, Massa?
1052SHALL I pause here in my narrative to tell you what became of Annie and some of the other persons who have been mentioned in the preceding chapters?
1052Shall I give you an inkling of it?
1052She could discern no object in the deep twilight; but, struck herself with the still beauty of the scene, she exclaimed,--"Pooty night, a''n''t it?
1052She took especial notice of the young men and women that came into church; and what do you think she did?
1052She''ll cry sure widout her mammy, and what ye gwine to do thin?"
1052Then the congregation arose and sang,--"Alas, and did my Saviour bleed?
1052They will never imagine it to be the glorified body of a poor, old, black slave, from such a wretched home,--will they?
1052Tidy''s services paid her owner''s board at her brother''s house, and she could n''t afford to give away her very subsistence; COULD SHE?
1052Was he going to inflict cruelty again as unmerited as it had before been?

1052Would WE take as much pains to attend a prayer- meeting?
1052Would he devote his sacred head For such a worm as I?
1052Would she ever be so happy as to be able to sing them from her own book?
1052Would such a child as she appeared to be attempt to gain her liberty?

19446The old man did n''t want the young one to see how anxious he was to get rid of his daughter so he said:''You wantin to marry my daughter, Janie?

19446_ Jack_:"You say our nephew wants to come out and bring a bunch of young folks and wants me to take them''possum hunting some moonlight night?
45631And did n''t take it?
45631And your wife''s name before her marriage?
45631Are you going without a pass?
45631Captain, where''s Platt?
45631D''ye hear that?
45631Did n''t I tell you last night to get a keg of nails of Chapin?
45631Did you ever live there?
45631Did you write a letter for a colored man at that place to some gentleman in Saratoga Springs?
45631Do you see those pine trees yonder?
45631Hav''nt you asked that fellow, Armsby, to mail a letter for you at Marksville?
45631Have you a family?
45631He is rather a smart boy, ai n''t he?
45631How came you here?
45631How do you like_ tanning_?
45631How do you like_ tanning_?
45631How do you think you''ll get there?
45631How long have you owned this plantation,_ say_, you d----d nigger?
45631How would you like to work for me?
45631I say, who wrote that letter?
45631Now, then,inquired one of Tibeats''companions,"where shall we hang the nigger?"
45631Platt, do you know this gentleman?
45631Platt, you lying nigger,_ have_ I?
45631So, Platt, you''re tired of scraping cotton, are you? 45631 Stop a moment,"said he;"have you any other name than Platt?"
45631Wan''t you over to Shaw''s night before last?
45631Well, boy, where did you come from?
45631Well, how''s this?
45631Well, my boy, how do you feel now?
45631What did you say to Pats?
45631What is her_ price_? 45631 What is the matter with the nails?"
45631What is the matter?
45631What is your name?
45631What were your children''s names?
45631When did you last see him, and where is he?
45631Where are you going now, Platt?
45631Where do your niggers hold Christmas?
45631Where does William Ford live?
45631Where does he live?
45631Where does that gentleman live?
45631Where?
45631Which is the way to his place?
45631Who are you? 45631 Who are you?"
45631Who married you?
45631Who shipped_ that_ nigger?
45631Why, Platt, what put that into your head?
45631You have seen none of those in this part of the country, I presume?
45631You worked under Myers at Peter Tanner''s, did n''t you?
45631You''re the nigger,he said to me on my arrival--"You''re the nigger that flogged your master, eh?
45631Your name is Platt, is it?
45631''He that is writing for me--''Where did Bass work last summer?"
45631Ah, yes-- like to travel for your health, may be?
45631And what difference is there in the color of the soul?
45631Are all men created free and equal as the Declaration of Independence holds they are?"
45631But this question of_ Slavery_; what_ right_ have you to your niggers when you come down to the point?"
45631Did''nt he want you to hire him for an overseer?"
45631Goin''wid''em?
45631He must take me for a soft, to think he can come it over me with them kind of yarns, musn''t he?
45631How could I write a letter without any ink or paper?
45631How did you happen to get here?
45631If they do n''t know as much as their masters, whose fault is it?
45631Is every thing right because the law allows it?
45631It runneth as follows:"Who''s been here since I''ve been gone?
45631Now you d----d nigger,"he exclaimed,"why did you not tell me that when I bought you?"
45631Now, in the sight of God, what is the difference, Epps, between a white man and a black one?"
45631Now, who is it?"
45631O, de lor'', did''nt Platt pick his feet right up, tho'', hey?
45631Pointing towards Northup, standing a few rods distant, he demanded--"Do you know that man?"
45631Pray, what is it?"
45631So you''re going into the tanning business?
45631Soon Arthur would rejoin his family, and have the satisfaction of seeing his wrongs avenged: my family, alas, should I ever see them more?
45631Suppose they''d pass a law taking away your liberty and making you a slave?"
45631Talk about black skin, and black blood; why, how many slaves are there on this bayou as white as either of us?
45631They are held in bondage, generation after generation, deprived of mental improvement, and who can expect them to possess much knowledge?
45631Walking up to Bob, the sheriff inquired:"Where''s the boy they call Platt?"
45631We were busily at work in the afternoon, when I stopped suddenly and said--"Master Bass, I want to ask you what part of the country you came from?"
45631Were the events of the last few weeks realities indeed?--or was I passing only through the dismal phases of a long, protracted dream?
45631What had I done to deserve imprisonment in such a dungeon?
45631What have you got to say to that, ha?"
45631What was the meaning of these chains?
45631What would become of me?
45631What would become of them?
45631Where was I?
45631Where were Brown and Hamilton?
45631While hoeing by the side of Patsey, she exclaimed, in a low voice, suddenly,"Platt, d''ye see old Hog- Jaw beckoning me to come to him?"
45631Whither should I fly?
45631Who would befriend me?
45631Why could they not be purchased together?
45631Why do n''t you come forward?"
45631Why had I not died in my young years-- before God had given me children to love and live for?
45631Why not let her have one of her dear children?
45631Wonder if you know who he is?"
45631You would like to change your master, eh?
45631You''d call them feller citizens, I s''pose?"
45631You''re a''portant character-- you''re a great nigger-- very remarkable nigger, ai n''t ye?
45631You''re fond of moving round-- traveler-- ain''t ye?
45631You''re the nigger that kicks, and holds carpenter Tibeats by the leg, and wallops him, are ye?
45631_ Buy_ her?"
45631and"What is coming off to- night, Platt?"
45631what d''ye think?
45631what have you been doing up there?"
45631what''ll become of me?"
37890Do you know what is a fanatic?
37890How in the world did he excuse it?
37890Were you fools enough to believe that?
37890Am I a freeman?
37890And how have the root- and- branch abolitionists mended matters?
37890And is not the same dumbness of Curtis, Von Holst, and McMaster, writing after the war, due to the survival in the north of the old constraint?
37890And when you are seriously intent on saying something, is it necessary to hunt for words?"
37890And yet ought we not to admire the inventive genius of the statesman who of all proposed the remedy that promised the best?
37890But some one says, how could the southerners as Americans, the especial champions of liberty, stultify themselves by slaveholding?
37890Cadet Davis saw it first, and calmly asked of the doughty instructor,''What shall I do, sir?
37890Did not the spirit of Napoleon looking on regret that he had not given the pesky Mamelukes like punishment?
37890Do you not perceive that this free- labor farmer can produce far more cheaply than the slave farmer?
37890Had there been another event, who can be sure that the south would not have committed misdeeds of vengeance against citizens of the north?
37890How could Sherman have ever crossed the devastated tract from Dalton to Atlanta had he been without the railroad behind him?
37890How could even Webster talk these facts out of existence?
37890How many would have done it?
37890How to do this properly brought up the question, What is money?
37890How was it to be done?...
37890I was aroused by the whisper of a neighbor,"Can any one else in the world do such a beautiful thing on the spur of the moment?"
37890If half negro blood can do so well, why is it that pure negro blood does not do far better?
37890If you deny justification to them, how can we keep decorum in accepting it ourselves?
37890In all of these slaves, while I knew them, there never was a separation of a family except by death or the voluntary act of parties to a marriage?
37890Is it indeed chimerical to demand of the great republic that it do its very highest duty?
37890Is it not most praiseworthy to save even one?
37890Is my State a free State?
37890Is she ready?"
37890Is that what he means by keeping open the door of hope and opportunity?
37890Let it be inquired,"If''Uncle Tom''s Cabin''and Mrs. Stowe''s Key truly represent, why did not more of the blacks escape into the free States?
37890My brother who wore the blue, ought he not to have so felt?
37890Ought not attention to facts incontrovertibly cardinal to rule here as everywhere else?
37890Ought there not to be a real labor party in the south instead of what we now see?
37890Refuse them, and what, then?
37890Suppose we do not give him his State, or suppose it will be long years before we give it to him, what do you say we are to do for him?
37890That of slavery, or that produced by the conditions which his professed friends put in place of slavery?
37890The comparison with which it closed had been, I believe, used before; but what of that?
37890The man gave time and place, and added tauntingly,"What do you say to that?"
37890The other interrupted him, and sustained his charge by producing the_ Globe_; and he expressively exclaimed,"What do you think of that vote?"
37890The stench, filth, and discomfort of their nights and the hardship of their days, who can describe?
37890They did not condemn the traitor; think you they abhorred the treason?
37890They will exclaim, What can this author say that has not been said in the vast library of books already written upon the civil war?
37890This is first in order:"How can the union be saved?
37890Thus June 20, 1860, Green asks him where is the amendment?
37890To what is due the great accomplishment of Dumas, Douglass, and Booker Washington-- to their negro blood or to their white blood?
37890We may now properly inquire, What of the past does the south retain, and in what will consist her future progress?
37890Well, what is it?
37890What does he mean is the crime?
37890What have I to do but follow my uniform line of policy, and give them the same rules as everybody else?
37890What is Webster''s highest and best fame?
37890What is higher humanity than to grieve with those who grieve?
37890What is it that makes a sheep, or cow, or coin, or piece of paper, money?
37890What, then, am I to do?
37890Which of the two was the better for him?
37890Which of the two was the more humane and christian punitive system for the negro?
37890Who are the laborers that are both to spur and lead us forward in this great course?
37890Who can predict what would have been the future of mongrelism thus beginning?
37890Who can say that there is not among the professor''s American ancestors one of half white blood?
37890Who ever hears of him afterwards?
37890Who were they?
37890Who would now be arousing people north and south in behalf of the race?
37890Why ignore what is so plain and so important?
37890Why is it that there is this blessed insurgence against corporation misrule there, and hardly a trace of it here?
37890Why should he want the floor?
37890Why should we play into its hands?
37890Will he snub them because a negro has more sacred right than a white?
37890Would Hayti have arranged for some of its young men to be trained in farming at Tuskegee?
37890Would it not be far better for the anti- monopoly cause in the north?
37890Would it not be far better for us of the section?
37890Would not this be just as equal?
37890You have thus had forced upon you the greatest and the gravest question that can ever come under your consideration,--How can the union be preserved?"
37890You will have succeeded when you can rightly appreciate this outburst:"Will you collect money when it is acknowledged that it is not wanted?
37890_ Nominees of National Conventions._"What are the fruits of your national conventions?...
37890and where could nine millions of blacks be found-- or even half a million-- as far above the African level of to- day as ours?
37890and why did they not revolt in large bodies during the war in the many communities whence all the able- bodied whites had gone to the front far away?"
37890has it been before a committee?
37890has the house disagreed to it?
37890more especially do I ask, would negroes educated at Tuskegee be now teaching the missionaries how to christianize the Africans of Togoland?
37890when was it adopted?
45954How do those people treat you now, since they have come to close quarters with you? 45954 They assailed Sumner because he said,''Is thy servant a dog, that he should do this thing?''
45954Who can be wise, amazed, temperate and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment? 45954 Who is the HONEST MAN?
45954_ Bru._ All this? 45954 ''Is thy servant a dog, that he should do this thing? 45954 ***** And first, what are our present duties here in Massachusetts? 45954 ***** Here two questions occur, absorbing all others:_ first_, what are our political duties here in Massachusetts at the present time? 45954 Am I not right in this parallel? 45954 Am I not right, then, in calling it the worst bill on which Congress ever acted? 45954 Am I not right, then, in calling this bill the best on which Congress ever acted? 45954 Am I right? 45954 And yet the honorable Senator asks,Did we ever bring this subject into Congress?"
45954Ay, more: fret, till your proud heart break:_ Go, show your slaves how choleric you are, And make your bondmen tremble._ Must I budge?
45954But what is the use of petition, or polished sentences and rounded periods, in a contest with the pirate honor of Slavery?
45954Did not the honorable Senator from Ohio some time ago bring in such a bill?
45954Do I understand the Senator to say without notice given?
45954Do I understand the gentleman to say that the Rule of Three was applied to representation in the United States?
45954Do you ask me if I would send back a slave?
45954Does any Senator here dissent from this rule?
45954Does any one question this?
45954Does the Senator allude to my State?
45954Does the Senator from South Carolina?
45954Does the Senator from Virginia?
45954Has the Senator a right to debate the question, or say anything on it, until leave be granted?
45954Has the Senator done?
45954He then asked if Massachusetts"would send fugitives back to us after trial by jury or any other mode?"
45954Here the question was distinctly presented, whether any such property was recognized by the British Constitution?
45954How often must I say this?
45954I put the question in general language: Does he recognize the obligation to return a fugitive slave?"
45954I wish to inquire of the Senator from New Hampshire whether he has withdrawn his motion?
45954I wish to know, before voting, what will be the effect of a vote given in the affirmative on this motion?
45954I would inquire whether there is not a bill already pending for the repeal of the Fugitive Slave Law?
45954I would inquire whether there is not such a bill pending?
45954I would respectfully ask the Chair what has become of the motion submitted by the Senator from New Hampshire?
45954If the Constitution and laws appoint officers, and require them to discharge duties, will he abandon them to the mob?
45954In what school of blackguardism was Clay of Alabama graduated?
45954Is that in order?
45954Is that motion in order?
45954It was entitled,"Shall Slavery be permitted in Nebraska?"
45954Mr. Butler rose to reply, when Mr. Badger asked his"friend from South Carolina, whether it would not be better for him to allow us now to adjourn?"
45954Must I give way and room to your rash choler?
45954Must I observe you?
45954Must I stand and crouch Under your testy humor?
45954Now, Sir, upon what ground do gentlemen make any discrimination in the case of the power over the National Militia?
45954Oh, when will the North be aroused?
45954On what motion have the yeas and nays been ordered?
45954Our slaves being our property, why should they be taxed more than the land, sheep, cattle, horses,& c.?"
45954Pray, why incumbent on him?
45954Sir, can you wonder that our people are moved?
45954Sir, who has pretended that all men are born equal in physical strength or in mental capacities, in beauty of form or health of body?
45954Suppose some of us object to it?
45954The question arose, whether leave should be granted to the Senator from Massachusetts to introduce the bill?
45954The question for the Chair to put is, Shall the Senator have leave?
45954The question is, whether, on the motion for leave to introduce the bill, there shall be debate?
45954The question was then raised, whether it could be received, if there was objection?
45954Then he exclaimed:"Why, Sir, am I speaking of a fanatic, one whose reason is dethroned?
45954Then how can we ever reach the question of leave, when objection is made?
45954Then, turning to Mr. Sumner, he demanded, with much impetuosity of manner,"Will this honorable Senator tell me that he will do it?"
45954To which Mr. Sumner promptly replied,"Is thy servant a dog, that he should do this thing?"
45954WHEN WILL THE NORTH BE AROUSED?
45954What and how?
45954What higher praise could I offer?
45954What is the date of that statute?
45954Who can doubt the result?
45954Who can fail to see the difference between the two cases, and how far the tyranny of the Slave Act is beyond the tyranny of the Stamp Act?
45954Why not?
45954Will it carry the bill and the whole subject on the table?
45954Will the Chair allow me to make a single statement?
45954Will the Senator allow me?
45954Will the Senator from Massachusetts give leave to the Chair to explain?
45954Will the Senator refer to his own speech?
45954Will the gentleman for Marshfield allow me to make one more inquiry?
45954Will the gentleman state who was the author of that Essex paper?
45954Will the honorable Senator allow me to interrupt him?
45954[_ Applause and laughter._] What may we expect from the Whig party?
45954_ Sic itur ad astra._ Mais que dis- je?
45954and,_ secondly_, how, and by what agency, shall they be performed?
45954in reply to the question, whether he would assist in the capture of a fugitive slave?
45954must I endure all this?
45954which way shall I fly?
47050Immediate emancipation?
47050It is here in our midst,say they,"and how are we to get rid of it?"
47050Not prepared for freedom?
47050Was there ever,said Dr. Wayland,"such a moral superstructure raised on such a foundation?
47050''And is it true?
47050''Is it really possible?
47050241._) If slaveholding is an illustration of what St. Paul meant by justice and equality, who can tell what is injustice and inequality?
47050A kind slaveholder?
47050After a moment''s silence, conflicting passions seemed to tear open his heart, and he exclaimed,''What have I done that I should suffer this doom?
47050And if the slaves are unprepared for freedom, what is to prepare them for it?
47050Are there any prospects that the long and dreary night of American despotism will speedily end in a joyous morning?
47050Are we not in imminent danger of being cursed with Pharaoh''s hardness of heart?
47050As soon as he had done, the doctor came in panting, almost out of breath, and, addressing me, said,''Wo n''t you go to prayer with us, sir?''
47050But did St. Paul excuse them, and forbid their expulsion from the church, throwing the blame of their conduct upon the prevailing vice?
47050But does not American slavery vex and oppress the stranger and pervert his judgment?
47050But does the prediction of the oppression of a people justify that oppression?
47050But it will be asked did not slavery exist in the apostles''days?
47050But think you that the poor wretch had committed a heinous offense, and had been convicted thereof and sentenced to the lash?
47050But who will pretend to justify the Egyptian task- masters on the plea that the affliction of Israel had been predicted?
47050But, says one, are not the negroes children of Canaan?
47050Can any slaveholder obey this precept?
47050Could a man be a_ just_ robber or an_ honest_ thief?
47050Could any sane man wish to have his sons and daughters grow up in the stupor, ignorance, and miseries of slavery?
47050Did he ordain that until the"general sense"were purified, the"fornicator,"the"incestuous person"and the"drunkard"must remain in the church?
47050Do n''t you know that your blood flows in its veins?
47050Do n''t you see in every feature the lineaments of its father?
47050Do we find these facts in history?
47050Does he open a school on his plantation for their mental and moral culture?
47050Does he permit his slaves to instruct each other in the rudiments of education?
47050Does he renounce the claim of_ property_ in his slaves?
47050Does he secure his slaves against the chances of the inter- state slave trade-- against sale at auction for his debts-- against the lash of a Legree?
47050Does he use his influence to have the diabolical laws enacted to crush the manhood out of the colored man, repealed?
47050Does he_ hire_ them to work for him and_ pay_ them when the work is done?
47050Does not this indicate that the great design of the employment of foreign servants was religious?
47050Equality?
47050Gage?"
47050Had this woman committed crime?
47050Has God ever made a grant to_ Americans_ to enslave the Africans?
47050Has God said that every race under heaven may have a home in America but the African?
47050Have slaveholders no better?
47050Have you, have you sold me?''
47050How can a slaveholder give unto a_ slave_ that which is_ just_ and_ equal_?
47050How can he, by his vote, say that slavery shall be perpetual?
47050How is it to be determined who shall become a human chattel and who the owner of said chattel?
47050How many of the hundreds of ministers in the whole south are free to utter their convictions on slavery to day?
47050How many religious presses are unfettered?
47050How then can he, how dare he, by his vote, chain them and deliver them over to the slave driver?
47050How then?
47050If that wealthy planter who stands at the head of a large family, were a slave with all his household, what course would he have his owner pursue?
47050If the right to claim belongs to any, it belongs to all, and now whose right shall hold?
47050In the light of these facts how can a christian vote for a slaveholder or a friend of slavery?
47050Is it allowable for a christian to take a concubine or marry three or four wives?
47050Is it not possible that these words were the hasty expression of excited feeling and not the solemn enunciation of a divine anathema?
47050Is it possible that he could desire to be deprived of liberty, education, permanent family connections, and of the proceeds of his toil?
47050Is it possible that the holy apostles gave their sanction to a system based on such laws?
47050Is not that a terrible institution which can only be sustained by enchaining the immortal mind and withholding entirely the advantages of education?
47050Is there the least similarity between this system of servitude and American slavery?
47050Is this American freedom?
47050May we not be visited speedily with judicial blindness such as was inflicted upon the doomed nations and cities of antiquity?
47050Must the strong reduce to slavery the weak, and thus make might the_ arbiter_?
47050Now how are these scriptures to be obeyed respecting the great sin of slavery?
47050Now is it probable that the words buy, and sell, in this same chapter, when applied to foreign servants, were used in a totally different sense?
47050Now whose land was that?
47050Republicanism?
47050Stowe._) Now, will any one pretend that it is proper for a christian, having a wife, to take also the wife of a deceased brother?
47050Temperance is made a political question, should the church therefore fellowship the drunkard?
47050The inquiry,"how are we to get rid of slavery?"
47050The lacerated man cried out some at first; but at every blow the doctor cried,''wo n''t ye hush?
47050The mistress-- the owner-- the trader-- who is she?
47050The observance of the Sabbath is a political question-- must the church therefore drop it, lest it be entangled with politics?
47050To whom can she appeal?
47050To whom then were they addressed?
47050WHAT OF THE NIGHT?
47050Were they not prepared for freedom?
47050What entitles him to that character?
47050What husband or wife can read them without deep sorrow?
47050What of the Night?
47050What then entitles him to the character of a_ kind_ slaveholder?
47050What was the practical operation of the law of Moses in relation to foreign servants?
47050Where are my children?
47050Who doubts that it is its duty?
47050Who is willing to admit the consequences of this construction?
47050Who would think of reforming robbery-- of making laws to regulate robbers in their trade-- and to prevent brutal men from engaging in it?
47050Why then did not the apostles regulate it by prescribing the duties of slaveholders and slaves?
47050Will you henceforth do him justice, as you shall answer to God?
47050Would he not urge the matter as one of immense importance?
47050Would he not wish him to grant a deed of immediate manumission to all his family and to himself?
47050Would it be right for a christian to pursue a neighbor who had committed accidental or intentional homicide, overtake and slay him?
47050Yes-- a christian(?)
47050[ 17] Can any one conceive of any_ virtuous_ reason which prompted the passage of such a rule?
47050_ Slavery leaves its victims a prey to unchecked avarice._ What protection has a slave against the avarice of his master?
47050and have you sold me?''
47050can any one plead for the admission of such cruelty into the bosom of the church and into the ministry?
47050what could I do, but turn aside and hide my tears for the sufferer, and my blushes for humanity?
47050wo n''t ye hush?''
5205And does he not do so with reason?
5205And now, my friends, I would ask you, further, of what value would a congressional decision upon that subject be?
5205And what is the other question of difference now?
5205And who is the criminal?
5205Are they but evanescent clouds that flit across but can not obscure the great purposes for which the Constitution was established?
5205Are you willing to leave that to Congress?
5205But what further do they couple with these demands which they make for congressional legislation?
5205But, my friends, who is a pauper, or who is a criminal?
5205By what standard do they measure it?
5205Can it be that any of you tread that soil and forget the great purposes for which those men bravely fought, or nobly died?"
5205Could I be insensible to such recognition of the honorable fame of Mississippi?
5205Do they fear to allow Southern men to converse with their philosophers, and seek thus to silence or exclude them?
5205Do they mean treason to the Constitution and the destruction of the Union?
5205Do you pay taxes to an agent that he may destroy your property?
5205Do you support him for that purpose?
5205Does any one ask, then, how it is that a State is to be held to its obligations?
5205Good or evil?
5205Has Congress the right to say that foreigners shall not vote within the limits of your State?
5205Has patriotism ceased to be a virtue, and is narrow sectionalism no longer to be counted a crime?
5205Have the purposes for which our Union was formed, lost their value?
5205Have we so degenerated, that we can no longer emulate their virtues?
5205If Congress had the power to prohibit the introduction of slave property into the territories, what would be the purpose?
5205If so, upon what?
5205If so, where is it?
5205If the constitution is to be sacredly observed, why should there be a struggle for sectional ascendency?
5205In this state of the case, my friends, why is the country agitated?
5205In what other land could a countryman go so far from his home and receive among strangers the attention which could only be expected from friends?
5205Is a man a pauper merely because he comes here without property, without money in his purse?
5205Is it because the opinion which had been formed has been found to be unjust, and the reaction has been in proportion to the previous impulse?
5205Is it boastful to say that American troops, and an American treasury, would have encountered and have overcome such an obstacle?
5205Is it fortunate or otherwise?
5205Is it in the cause of Christianity?
5205Is it in this mode that the spirit of mutual support and common effort for the common good, is to be cultivated?
5205Is it thus that confidence is to be developed and the sense of security to grow with the growing power of each and every State?
5205Is that seen in the diminished comfort of the world?
5205Is that seen in the diminished resources of the country?
5205Is that to be decided by the ruling of other countries, by the laws of France, or of England?
5205Is there any political power to authorize such interference?
5205Is this aggression?
5205It was natural to ask, whence come these manifestations?
5205Mississippi has decided it for herself; who has the right to gainsay her decision?
5205Now, I ask, what power has Congress over the question?
5205On the other hand, what do we see?
5205Or do they vilely practice on credulity and passion for personal gain?
5205Or is it the exhibition of your regard for loyalty to one''s friends, and devotion by a citizen to the community to which he belongs?
5205Or is it to be decided by your own laws, by your own rules of judicature?
5205Or is not the reverse exhibited?
5205Shall the Rocky Mountains prove a dividing barrier to us?
5205Shall we preserve and transmit it to posterity?
5205The good of mankind?
5205Then, who are the paupers and criminals?
5205They proclaim their purpose to be to exclude paupers and criminals from abroad.--Do paupers and criminals come for the right of suffrage?
5205Was he asked, what then was to become of the interest of ship- building?
5205Was it for this cause that he had been signalized as a slavery propagandists?
5205What do those laws confer?
5205What has been the result?
5205What is there practical or rational in the present excitement?
5205What now is the basis of opposition to the democratic party?
5205What power has Congress to declare what shall be property?
5205What was the Government to do?
5205What, my friends, must be the consequences of this agitation?
5205What, then, has been the foundation of all this controversy?
5205What, then, is their standard?
5205Where else will one find a more happy union of magnificence and comfort, where better arrangements to facilitate commerce?
5205Where in this vicinity will you go and not meet some monument to inspire such sentiments?
5205Where is the grant of the Constitution which confers on the federal government a right to determine what shall be property?
5205Where so much of industry, with so little noise and bustle?
5205Where, in a phrase, so much effected in proportion to the means employed?
5205Who can measure the value of such incidents in a people''s history?
5205Who gave them a right to decide that it is a sin?
5205Who now stand arrayed against the democratic party?
5205Who shall gainsay your decision?
5205Who wishes to withhold those privileges from foreigners?
5205Why is it that the peace of the country is disturbed in order that one people may assume to judge of what another people should do?
5205Why is it, I say, that you are thus agitated in relation to the domestic affairs of other communities?
5205Why was it so?
5205Why, then, I would ask, do we see these lengthened shadows, which follow in the course of our political day?
5205Why, then, in the absence of all control over the subject of African slavery, are you agitated in relation to it?
5205Why, then, this accusation?
5205Would it be to promote emancipation?
5205Would it be to promote the civilization and progress of the negro race?
5205You are a practical people and may ask, how is that contest to be avoided?
5205but,"Is this a town of my brethren?"
5205is it because the sun is declining to the horizon?
5205why longer remain a part of the Union?

11137Are you not afraid that they will resist?
11137Are you sure,said Rosa,"that master thinks of such a frightful doom for us?"
11137As you please, then,he said, rather dubiously,"but look well to your weapons; are they in order?"
11137Can you keep three poor devils here to- night?
11137Does your mother still reside in C----?
11137Have you any travelers here to night?
11137How many?
11137Poor man,said his benefactor,"can it be that you have a wife with you, wretched as yourself?"
11137Resist?
11137Shall I not visit for these things? 11137 What,"said he,"are you so chicken- hearted as to suppose those d----d cowardly niggers are going to get up an insurrection?"
11137Where are they?
11137Ah, who?
11137And are not a vast majority of the polar race excluded?
11137And are we alone excluded from what the world chooses to denominate polite society?
11137And for what, pray, is all this grand outlay-- this vast expenditure?
11137And for what?
11137And for what?
11137And for what_ is_ all this?
11137And if allowed to them, is it not equally justifiable when the commerce is prompted by affection rather than that of lust and force?
11137And what, think you, was the cause of this terrible calamity?
11137And who does not?
11137And who is responsible?
11137And who will wonder, if his slaves rejoiced to hear of his death?
11137And why should they be compelled to leave the State of Ohio?
11137Are not the clergy, a class of men equally ineligible to office?
11137But are we alone shut out and excluded from any share in the administration of government?
11137But can these out- gushings of a benevolent heart-- the purest impulses of a noble nature-- be permitted to flow out spontaneously, in open daylight?
11137But is the poor, flying fugitive from the house of bondage, safe one moment within your borders?
11137But what could be done?
11137But what sees the oppressed negro?
11137But what was he to do for food?
11137But where is Mr. M''Carter, the more fortunate party in the duel?
11137But where should they go?
11137But who can describe the anxiety written on every face, as they prepared for the third and last trial?
11137But why, oh why, had I been forced to flee thus from my fellow men?
11137But, to what, my friends, do you owe all these blessings?
11137Can I be accommodated?
11137Can I see your barn?"
11137Can any one wonder that I, and other slaves, often doubted the sincerity of every white man''s religion?
11137Can it be a matter of astonishment, that slaves often feel that there is no just God for the poor African?
11137Can it be for the best interest or good of the enslaved?
11137Can this be so?
11137Do the Northern or Free States of the Union think to clear their skirts of the abomination of Slavery, by saying that they own no slaves?
11137Do the best interests of our common country require it?
11137Does not the Bible inform us that"God hath created of one blood all the nations of the earth?"
11137Dr. Bruno asks,"Gentlemen, are you ready?"
11137Else, why should my oppressors feel so unwilling that their slaves should possess that which they thought so essential to themselves?
11137For what fault, or for what crime was I pursued by armed men, and hunted like a beast of prey?
11137Have we any direct influence over his human chattels?
11137He gazed upon the suffering man with an angry expression, and inquired in a tone of command,"Daniel, what have you been doing?"
11137Helm demand it?
11137Helm, soul and body; and if his brutal owner chose to destroy his own property, certainly had he not a right to do so, without let or hindrance?
11137Helm?
11137His face, covered with blood, was so swollen that he could hardly see for some time; but what of that?
11137How could intelligent men, or gentlemen, if you please so to term them, look placidly on such a horrid scene?
11137How many pure Africans, think you, can be found in the whole slave population of the South, to say nothing of their nativity?
11137I ask, Almighty God, are they who do such things thy chosen and favorite people?
11137I asked him what I should do?
11137I opened it myself, and a gentleman, looking carefully about the place, inquired,"Are you full?"
11137If any, what are his prospects?
11137In the day of final reckoning, think you, he will regret having plead the cause of the bondman?
11137Is a falsehood to be pardoned because uttered by a negro?
11137Is it benevolence that binds him with his master''s chain?
11137Is it no sin in the sight of the Almighty, for Southern gentlemen(?)
11137Is my reader about to throw the blame of our nation''s wrong on England, and accuse her of first tolerating Slavery?
11137Is not the necessity of an"_ under ground railroad_,"a disgrace to the laws of any country?
11137Is not truth the same, whether proclaimed by black or white,--bond or free?
11137Let us ask then, why did our Omnipotent Creator make the marked distinction?
11137Look around you, my friends: what rational enjoyment is not within your reach?
11137Look you then to yours; are you less capable of securing your rights than they?
11137Oh, God, is there no protection for me in the laws of New York?
11137Oh, when will this nation"cease to do evil and learn to do well?"
11137Oh, who, with feelings of common humanity, could look quietly on such torture?
11137Otherwise, how could a gentle, and in other respects, amiable woman, look on such scenes of cruelty, without a shudder of utter abhorrence?
11137Ought it then to be deemed less criminal because transpiring on the free soil of the American Republic?
11137Should it not also remind those who have guests to entertain, of the sinfulness of putting the cup to their neighbor''s lips?
11137Starting to his feet in great alarm, he cried out"Where is Davis?"
11137The gentleman sprang from his carriage, bounded through the open door, and in the most excited manner, began to inquire"who owns this establishment?
11137The_ pay_ is all well enough, I know, but if you get killed your wages will stop; and then who, do you suppose, will indemnify me for the loss?
11137Then who is it that rivets the chain and increases the already heavy burden of the crushed slave, but he who has the power to do with him as he wills?
11137Think you, that a righteous God will fail to judge a nation for such flagrant sins?
11137Was it, think you, a personal enmity that the cowardly scoundrel had toward our worthy Northern Senator, which induced the attack?
11137Was there no heart of humanity to interfere and arrest the murderous designs of these madmen?
11137We admit it; but did she not repent of the evil she had done, and speedily break every yoke, and let the oppressed go free?
11137What a spectacle was that, for the sight of a brother?
11137What could I do next?
11137What could I do?
11137What had I done?
11137What prevented the Doctor from an exertion to save his life?
11137What stronger proof can we ask in favor of our position, than the intolerant spirit of the South?
11137What then are the means by which so dreadful a calamity may be avoided?
11137What though her soil be fertile, yielding a yearly product of wealth to its possessors?
11137What though his skin be black as ebony, if the heart of a brother beats in his bosom?
11137What though she may have been justly styled,"The Mother of Presidents?"
11137What would my Rochester friends think of my conduct?
11137What_ should_ I then have done?
11137When a rumseller gives that to a man, which he knows will"steal away his brains,"and make him a maniac, how can he anticipate his future conduct?
11137When will he return?
11137When will they judge character in accordance with its moral excellence, instead of the complexion a man unavoidably bears to the world?
11137Who can imagine a position more painful?
11137Who has murdered my poor brother?"
11137Who will bear to his loving and unsuspecting wife, the sad intelligence of her sudden bereavement?
11137Why hold with an unyielding grasp, so miserable and useless a piece of property?
11137Why not let him go then?
11137Why should we, on this day of congratulation and joy, turn our view upon the origin of African Slavery?
11137Why then are the mails so closely examined, and fines imposed on prohibited anti- slavery documents?
11137Why was I there panting and weary, hungry and destitute-- skulking in the woods like a thief, and concealing myself like a murderer?
11137Why, indeed, was the black man created, if not to fulfil his destiny_ as a negro_, to the glory of God?
11137Will any of you say that it can be of no use to you, or that you can not read it?
11137Will he be welcomed to your homes, your tables, your firesides?
11137Will not my friends think of these and many other advantages in favor of a country life, and practice accordingly?
11137Will they not blot out from their fair escutcheon the foul stain which Slavery has cast upon it?
11137Would not his keeper be made to answer, and perhaps to suffer for his escape and theft?
11137how then were my high hopes fallen, and how much more hateful appeared that slavery which had blighted all my military prospects?
11137saith the Lord; and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?"
11137to mix blood and amalgamate the races?
11137what a state of mind was this in which to meet inevitable death?
9576''Oh, do n''t you know?''
9576''What do you mean?''
9576A mighty host, on either hand, Stood waiting for the dawn of day To crush like reeds our feeble band; The morn has come, and where are they?
9576And dost thou shake to hear, Actieon- like, the bay of thine own hounds, Spurning the leash, and leaping o''er their bounds?
9576Are they men whose eyes of madness from that sad procession flash?
9576Be firm, be true: What one brave State hath done, can ye not also do?
9576Beats her Pilgrim pulse no longer?
9576But who are they, who, cowering, wait Within the shattered fortress gate?
9576Can a Christless church withstand, In the van of Freedom''s onset, the coming of that band?
9576Did the brutal cravens aim To make God''s truth thy falsehood, His holiest work thy shame?
9576End in this the prayers and tears, The toil, the strife, the watchings of our younger, better years?
9576FROM Yorktown''s ruins, ranked and still, Two lines stretch far o''er vale and hill Who curbs his steed at head of one?
9576For this did shifty Atherton Make gag rules for the Great House?
9576God and truth and right a dream?
9576Has she none to break the silence?
9576Has she none to do and dare?
9576Have they wronged us?
9576I inquired,''Is that all?''
9576I inquired,` What else?''
9576Is that a woman On whose wrist the shackles clash?
9576Is that shriek she utters human, Underneath the stinging lash?
9576Is the dollar only real?
9576Is the tyrant''s brand upon thee?
9576Is this our mission?
9576Is this thy voice whose treble notes of fear Wail in the wind?
9576Know we not our dead are looking Downward with a sad surprise, All our strife of words rebuking With their mild and loving eyes?
9576Let us then Render back nor threats nor prayers; Have they chained our free- born men?
9576Or shall the Evil triumph, and robber Wrong prevail?
9576Plied we for this our axe of doom, No stubborn traitor sparing, Who scoffed at our opinion loom, And took to homespun wearing?
9576Said:''No; they say,"Where are we going?
9576Shall Justice, Truth, and Freedom turn the poised and trembling scale?
9576Shall the broad land o''er which our flag in starry splendor waves, Forego through us its freedom, and bear the tread of slaves?
9576Shall we cloud their blessed skies?
9576Shall we grieve the holy angels?
9576Side by side, amidst the slave- gang, toil the lover and the maid; Wherefore looks he o''er the waters, leaning forward on his spade?
9576Sits she dumb in her despair?
9576Speak and tell us where we are going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9576Still as the Old World rolls in light, shall ours in shadow turn, A beamless Chaos, cursed of God, through outer darkness borne?
9576Still the dance goes gayly onward What is it to Wealth and Pride That without the stars are looking On a scene which earth should hide?
9576Tell us not of banks and tariffs, cease your paltry pedler cries; Shall the good State sink her honor that your gambling stocks may rise?
9576That your gains may sum up higher, Must we kiss the feet of Moloch, pass our children through the fire?
9576Thou, our morrow''s pathway knowing Through the strange world round us growing, Hear us, tell us where are we going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9576To feed with our fresh life- blood the Old World''s cast- off crime, Dropped, like some monstrous early birth, from the tired lap of Time?
9576To run anew the evil race the old lost nations ran, And die like them of unbelief of God, and wrong of man?
9576To whom shall men thyself compare, Since common models fail''em, Save classic goose of ancient Rome, Or sacred ass of Balaam?
9576WHAT though around thee blazes No fiery rallying sign?
9576WHERE are we going?
9576Was it for such a sad reverse Our mobs became peacemakers, And kept their tar and wooden horse For Englishmen and Quakers?
9576Weighed against your lying ledgers must our manhood kick the beam?
9576What avail Your terrors of forewarning?
9576What boots it that we pelted out The anti- slavery women,[ 9] And bravely strewed their hall about With tattered lace and trimming?
9576What could have been more congenially adapted to their then woful condition?
9576What she has done can we not do?
9576What though unthrilled, unmoving, The statesman stand apart, And comes no warm approving From Mammon''s crowded mart?
9576Where are we going, Rubee?
9576Where are we going?
9576Where burns its star?
9576Where flows its stripe?
9576Where for words of hope they listened, the long wail of despair?
9576Where the far nations looked for light, a black- ness in the air?
9576Where''s now the flag of that old war?
9576Where''s the hand to light up bonfires from her mountains to the sea?
9576Where''s the voice to speak her free?
9576Who bends his keen, approving glance, Where down the gorgeous line of France Shine knightly star and plume of snow?
9576Who is it now despairs?
9576Who now shall rally Freedom''s scattering host?
9576Who stay the march of slavery?
9576Who then shall take him in the law, Who punish crime so flagrant?
9576Who wear the mantle of the leader lost?
9576Who will say that the above words are not a very appropriate song?
9576Whose hand shall serve, whose pen shall draw, A writ against that"vagrant"?
9576Wiped we for this our feet upon Petitions in our State House?
9576Would ye barter man for cotton?
9576` Do they say anything else?''
9576a day for us to sow The soil of new- gained empire with slavery''s seeds of woe?
9576he continued,''they asked God to give them their Atka?''
9576where are we going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9576where are we going?
13984''Certainly I will do as you say, but will you reward me by explaining the reason of your request?'' 13984 A nice place this, eh?"
13984And do n''t the others resist?
13984And do you''carry iron,''as the Greeks used to say, or''go heeled,''as your citizens express it?
13984And what are Catharmata?
13984And what was done to the other man?
13984Are they cannibals?
13984Been in some near things in the islands?
13984Before entering the Mark?
13984But about the taboo pig? 13984 But what can be the origin of such an extraordinary custom?"
13984But where does the warning come in?
13984But you got out the cartridges?
13984But, even if we manage to secure a boat,I said,"what about provisions, and where are we to sail for?"
13984By the way,he asked,"who does the Cock at the Lyceum just now?
13984Can nothing be done,I asked sympathetically,"to alleviate the disorders which you say are so common and distressing?"
13984Continued? 13984 Did ye ever hear of a duchess in a madhouse?"
13984Did you get me those hornets, Peter?
13984Do n''t you remember the picture in old Lafitau''s''Moeurs des Sauvages Americains''? 13984 Do you mind telling me one thing?"
13984Do you object to a cigarette?
13984Do you often have shootings down here?
13984Do you see these two front teeth?
13984Does n''t he? 13984 Does the priest of your''priest- hole''walk?"
13984Have you seen the Clayville Dime?
13984Have_ you_ sich a thing as a chaw about ye?
13984How can a man lack home, and food, and fire?
13984Is that really all?
13984Is your purchase not rather an expensive one?
13984Miss Lebas has a story,said the squire,"Wo n''t she tell us her story?"
13984My dear fellow,I said in a whisper,"is this quite sportsmanlike?
13984My dear sir,cried I, encouraged by this performance,"for Heaven''s sake tell me what all this means?
13984No more offers?
13984No? 13984 Oh, you still believe in that old superstition about cock- crow, do you?"
13984Peter,he cried,"will you be good enough to saddle three horses and bring them round?"
13984Then the appalling manifestations to which you allude are not the apparitions of the essential ghost? 13984 Then why had you such bad nights?"
13984Then you are not always in such form as I am privileged to find you in?
13984Then you do not suffer at all from aphasia just now?
13984These?
13984Well, then, who is to make a beginning?
13984Well,said I,"but how should we be any better off to- morrow morning?"
13984Well?
13984What did_ you feel_, Aunt Judy?
13984What ecclesiastic?
13984What had the birth of a kid got to do with it?
13984What is the matter, William Bludger?
13984What lark?
13984What on earth is the matter?
13984What prophecies?
13984What, gentlemen,_ no_ bids for this very eligible nigger? 13984 What,_ you_ want a cheap nigger to get your hand in, do you, you blank- blanked abolitionist?"
13984Where the( somewhere) are you blooming sons of beach- combers dragging a Bri''sh shailor? 13984 Who shot him?"
13984Why on earth did he hold up his feet?
13984Why on earth do you do_ that_?
13984Why,I asked,"was your mouth not always full of the''Greek spirit,''and did you not mock the Christians and their religion?
13984Will any one take any more wine?
13984William,I said solemnly,"what cheer?"
13984William?
13984Would you like to examine him?
13984Wretched Boyseemed familiar and unappropriate-- I was twenty- nine-- but what of that?
13984Yes,said I,"but why did you ask for a razor when you were left alone with Gumbo?"
13984You do n''t mean to say the story is to be continued?
13984You do n''t seem to like it yourself, Capt''n; what''s your advice? 13984 You know what aphasia is in the human subject?
13984You were complaining,I remarked,"of something like aphasia?"
13984You wo n''t think, in the morning, that this was all a dream, will you? 13984 You''ll help us to explore the cave, wo n''t you?"
13984_ They_ intend to herald an approaching death?
13984A sup of drink you have_ not_ got, Capt''n Hymn- book, axing your pardon for the liberty?"
13984An interpolation by Middleton?"
13984An old woman died, as old women will, and every one was asking"Who sent the evil spirit that destroyed poor old Dada?"
13984And are you not got to the paradise of the Greeks?
13984And now, how is it to be done?
13984And, as to their heaven, did you not say that it was a tedious place, full of pious old ladies and Philistines?
13984Are you quite certain that he ever smiled_ before_?"
13984But what was I to do?
13984By the way, what is_ your_ name?"
13984Can I bury your bones for you, or anything?
13984Can I do anything to impress it on your memory?
13984Clearly the ghost appeared in winter; do n''t you remember how they keep complaining of the weather?
13984Could some belated visitor have arrived in a hearse, like the lady in Miss Ferrier''s novel?
13984Did I draw, in awful colours, the certain consequences of ignorance of the Truth?
13984Did I endeavour to strike a salutary terror into her heathen heart?
13984Did any good ever come of breaking a taboo?
13984Did it ever strike you how inconsistent that is?
13984Did n''t they know the pig was taboo?
13984Did you ever hear the explanation of the haunted house in Berkeley Square?"
13984Do n''t you think, my dear fellow, you and I could manage to give them the slip?
13984Do_ you_ resist when people leave cards at your house,''with kind inquiries''?
13984Had n''t he warned them?
13984Had the natives discovered some mode of retaliating on our use of firearms?
13984His unmannerly antagonist jeering at these slips of pronunciation, Gowles uttered his celebrated and crushing retort,"Did Paul know Greek?"
13984How are the imprecations to be explained?
13984How are we to explain the companionship of the cow?
13984How could they do otherwise?
13984How does Furnivall take it?
13984How much offered for this exceptional lot-- unmarried and without encumbrances of any kind?
13984I asked;"have you had a Call, or why do you thrust yourself on me?"
13984I hope it was nothing at all vulgar or distressing?"
13984Indeed, why is_ she_ at large?"
13984Isaacs?"
13984It is not in those forms that he appears among his friends?"
13984It seems, however, to be decidedly rather gay just now; do n''t you think so?
13984Let me see, how does it go?
13984My father knew the contents of the scroll, but what of that?
13984Need I say what followed?
13984Now, would you believe it, these poor devils had never tasted spirits before?
13984Or shall I leave''a sable score of fingers four''burned on the table?
13984Run away from them, eh?"
13984Setting fire to the castle is simple"--here I remembered how he had lighted my cigarette--"but who on earth is to elope with Lady Perilous?
13984She was obdurate, and only said--"If you are not Percy, how do you know my secret?"
13984So why was he in such a rage?"
13984Suppose I shrivel your left wrist with a touch of my hand?
13984They cut you up in bits, wrap them in leaves--""En papillotte?"
13984They said this kind of behaviour was most ungentlemanly; why, where was decent feeling?
13984This hero might have very reasonably asked,"Why should I spear Why- Why because his brother over- ate himself?"
13984To remove this belief was most certainly my duty, but how was it to be done?
13984To what do you attribute your success to night?"
13984What amateur says more than ten dollars for this lot?
13984What has become of family pride?
13984What was Lady Birkenhead''s confession about?
13984What, then, ails you with your lot?"
13984When I arrived at Upton, the station- master made a charge at my carriage, and asked me if I was"The gentleman for the Towers?"
13984Where were the sand, the stream, the hostile warrior, the crowds of friends and foes?
13984Where''s the Bri''sh Conshul''s?
13984Who made men?
13984Who made the sun?
13984Why has the cave- bear such a hoarse voice?
13984Why should I attempt to describe a psychological experience as rare as instantaneous conversion, or more so?
13984Why should I linger over the sufferings of the miserable week that followed our capture?
13984Why your Lordship?
13984Will you give him up or will you fight?"
13984With all these young men, my dear?"

38716But what shall he say to the wicked on the left hand? 38716 It appeared,"says Prof. Lyell,"from his explanation of''Whose superscription is this?''
38716Ought not you to try and keep the fear of God always before your eyes? 38716 ''Doth not each one of you loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? 38716 ***** Q. Shall the righteous in heaven have any more hunger or thirst, or nakedness or heat or cold? 38716 --_John Quincy Adams._ The question, What kind of a Constitution did its framers intend to make? 38716 188)a servant who knows his master''s duty, and will not do it, must be made to do it,"how can he complain of his treatment?

3871676, 77),--"Is a servant, whose husband or wife has been sold by his or her master into a distant country, to be permitted to marry again?"
38716And how shall they be able to do this, to feed and to clothe you, unless you take honest care of every thing that belongs to them?
38716And may not bloodhounds be the most expeditious and fit?
38716And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond?''...
38716And shall we consider it a great thing to fulfil this duty?
38716And what answer could be returned?
38716And what, under such circumstances, would become of their mental, moral, or even their physical condition?
38716Apply the reasoning:''How much, then, is a man better than a sheep or an ox?''
38716Are the coarse and unfeeling jests there perpetrated calculated to increase her purity, or strengthen her moral sensibilities?
38716Are the executive or judicial departments of the States the proper expounders?
38716Are those slaves who enjoy moral and religious instruction any better off?
38716Are you trying to do to others as you would have them do to you?
38716Are you trying to love your neighbor as yourselves?
38716But are not their_ souls_ more precious than their_ bodies_?
38716But which constitutes the greater atrocity,--to use men and women as"stallions"and"brood mares,"or to speak or print the damning deed?
38716But who will say that neglect of duty and insubordination are the_ legitimate_ effects of the gospel, purely and sincerely imparted to servants?"
38716By whom is the gospel thus preached to them in purity and power?
38716Can such treatment result in any thing but brutalizing every noble faculty?
38716Communities do we say?
38716Did anybody go to Africa and teach them?
38716Did they deem it proper and consistent with the good order of society to preach the gospel to servants?
38716Do ye hear his voice in this?
38716Do you bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you?
38716Do you really believe that the people have suffered their servants to go on in ignorance of the true meaning for sixty years?
38716Do you really believe that the people of the United States did not mean by their words what those words then commonly meant?
38716Do you, for Jesus Christ''s sake, love your enemies?
38716Does any one say that either law or public opinion protects the female slave from the brutality of her master?
38716Does any one say these are solitary instances of atrocity?
38716Does any one say these atrocities must be confined to the extreme South, and that law or public opinion in North Carolina would forbid them?
38716Does any one say, that, though the law would favor such a sale by creditors, public opinion would not tolerate it?
38716Does any one, and who does not, feel deep disgust at these recitals?
38716Does any reader still doubt whether an owner thus has uncontrolled authority over the body of his female slave?
38716Does it demand uniformity, and at the same time deny the use of those means which are absolutely necessary to produce such uniformity?
38716Does it present a variable, ever- changing standard of duty, and yet demand complete uniformity in practice?
38716Does this bar the States from calling forth their own militia?
38716Does this take it away from the States?
38716From the"Richmond( Va.) Whig:""$ 100 REWARD will be given for the apprehension of my negro(?)
38716Have they it now?
38716Have we not, in the Old Bay State, just solemnly enacted that not even the most hardened convicts in our State Prison shall be whipped?
38716His means for taking a fearful vengeance are ample, and what consideration shall stay his hands?
38716How came this people by all this knowledge?
38716How can you reap the honorary or pecuniary advantages of your office, and honestly refuse compliance with your part of the bargain?
38716How could they desire to leave him?
38716How far has the existence or utterance of such sentiments as these resulted in securing to the slaves a sound moral and religious instruction?
38716How far, if at all, does this instrument support or countenance the institution?
38716How much more than this, or will any thing more than this, be done?
38716How, then, can we so far forget our common manhood as to pursue our brother with bloodhounds?
38716If the latter shows hardened feeling, what does the former prove?
38716If they have, does the Constitution take it away?
38716In discharge of this duty, did they interfere with their civil condition?
38716Is any sickly sentimentalist shocked at these recitals?
38716Is he whose idol is gold to be turned from his purpose merely by the foolish wailing of a woman whose heart- strings are breaking?
38716Is it not agreeable to the order of Divine Providence, that a child should be sold to pay his father''s debts?
38716Is it not true, that the most pious servants exert the happiest influence in promoting honesty and good order on plantations and in communities?"
38716Is it the province of each individual to do it?
38716Is the Constitution thus deficient?
38716Is the auction- block a scene for cultivating the affections of a poor slave- girl?
38716Is there one master in a thousand who does not desire such servants?
38716Is this law a dead letter?
38716May they not all listen to such words of comfort as fall from his lips?
38716Must not the degradation also be uncalculated and incalculable?
38716Of what consequence is deep, heart- felt agony to a speculator?
38716Of what consequence, then, is the pollution of the soul of the mother, compared with the fact of her increased value as a commodity?
38716Rawlins Lowndes said:--"In the first place, what cause was there for jealousy of our importing negroes?
38716Rep. 263), says:--"The inquiry here is, whether a cruel and unreasonable battery on a slave by the hirer is indictable?...
38716Thus may he do in his lifetime; but it is appointed unto all men to die; and what, in the event of his death, will become of his slaves?
38716We are here told, that in the day of judgment, the inquiry will be, What have we done in this world?
38716We simply ask, If Christian churches may sell slaves at auction, what may not private individuals do consistently with public opinion?
38716What but pecuniary profit does the speculator in horses look to?
38716What did the Apostle Paul to Onesimus, who was a runaway?
38716What is he to do?
38716What is it that does most to keep the public conscience at ease on the subject?
38716What is it that renders abortive all measures to remove the evil?...
38716What is our duty?
38716What is the Constitution?
38716What kind of teachers and what kind of instruction are thought to be consistent with proper feelings of gratitude and humanity on the part of masters?
38716What other object has the speculator in men, women, and children, in view?
38716What right have you to take an oath which you have previously resolved not to keep, when called on to comply with?
38716What saith our Saviour,''What, therefore, God hath joined''?
38716What would insure their continued mental and moral well- being?
38716What, in such case, will prevent a creditor from levying on an undivided share of Dr. Fuller''s happy slaves?
38716What, in their judgment, was such meaning?
38716What, then, has this final interpreter declared the meaning of these clauses of the Constitution to be?
38716What_ man_ would consent to become even the favored slave of Dr. Fuller?
38716When our servants are sick and diseased, we do not suffer them to want: we physic and nurse them(?).
38716When you hear the minister preach, are you not to listen to him as the minister of God; God''s messenger to your soul?
38716Wherein is the union among the_ human_ stock, on the Southern plantations, regarded as more sacred and lasting than the union among the_ brute_ stock?
38716Who can estimate the value in community of one such man acting under the influence of the gospel of peace?"
38716Who commits the greater injustice,--the man who robs another of his mind, or the man who robs another of his money?
38716Who has not asked with him,"Will not a righteous God visit for these things"?
38716Who is it that"ministers unto them in spiritual things,"and"leads away their famishing souls to the water of life"?
38716Who now is to tell us what this one standard is, to which all must submit, and which is thus to override all State Constitutions and all State laws?
38716Who will venture even to conceive, much less compute, the deep degradation caused by the denial of marriage to the slaves?
38716Why confine us to twenty years, or rather why limit us at all?
38716Why should slaves, who are a species of property, be represented more than any other property?
38716Why, then, should not the children of slave- women by white fathers be rightfully slaves?
38716Will he require much, where he has given little?
38716Will the wicked have any good thing in hell?
38716Would not the slaves be led to neglect of duty and insubordination by hearing such sentences?
38716Would you not expect, that they should take notice of what you said to them?
38716Yea, and without proceeding as far as did the Apostle Paul?(!)
38716You admit that a bad clause can not be rightfully supported, else why do you not support it?
38716how did we live in this world?
38716make full use of your privileges, and show that you thank God by serving him"?
38716that they should behave themselves with respect towards you and yours, and be as careful of every thing belonging to you as you would be yourselves?
38716the least comfort?
38716yea, blessed are the people who have the Lord for their God''"?
10611But who are you, who pretend to judge[103] of another man''s happiness? 10611 But why then,"replies the honest African,"do they suffer this?
10611Quid tu me verò libertate territas? 10611 _ Imagination!_ who can sing thy force, Or who describe the swiftness of thy course?
10611--But can_ laws_ alter the nature of vice?
10611--But what is that which strikes their ears?
1061123,"Can the à � thiopian change his colour, or the leopard his spots?"
10611And here, what a dreadful argument presents itself against you_ receivers_?
10611And indeed, how can it be expected that they should?
10611And is this wonderful, when, you_ receivers_ depress their senses by hunger?
10611And who is there, that would not have done the same thing, in the same situation?
10611And why are these dismal cries in vain?"
10611Are they not names, assumed either from_ injury_ or_ ambition_?"
10611But can they be well- disposed to their oppressors?
10611But do we mention punishment?
10611But do you allude to that execrable code, that_ authorises murder_?
10611But for what purpose is the punishment applied?
10611But how does the_ slave_ differ from his_ master_, but by_ chance_?
10611But how shall we attempt to ascertain it?
10611But if the_ offending_ party inflicted slavery on the persons of the vanquished, by what right did they inflict it?
10611But in what does this superiour happiness consist?
10611But what do you say to that long catalogue of offences, which you punish, and of which no people but yourselves take cognizance at all?
10611But what is this to you_ receivers_?
10611But what shall we say to the_ hypothesis_?
10611But which are we to believe on the occasion?
10611But who are you, that have this exclusive charter of trading in the liberties of mankind?
10611But who are you, that thus take into slavery so many people?
10611But why this unusual mirth, if their departed brother has left an happy place?
10611Can the southern winds convey them to the ear of Britain?
10611Did your slaves ever complain to you of their unhappiness, amidst their native woods and desarts?
10611Do we allude to that awful day, which shall surely come, when the master shall behold his murdered negroe face to face?
10611Do we allude to that punishment, which shall be inflicted on men as individuals, in a future life?
10611Do you call them obstinate then, because they refuse your favours?
10611Do you call them ungrateful, because they make you this return?
10611Do you live in_ Spain_, or in_ France_, or in_ Britain_?
10611Do you not see the tears that now trickle down my cheeks?
10611Do you thus judge from your own constitution and frame?
10611Does a man set fire to an house, for the purpose of rescuing the inhabitants from the flames?
10611Does he defend those therefore, whom he invades at discretion with the sword?
10611Does he protect the property of those, whose houses and effects he consigns at discretion to the flames?
10611For has he no pleasure in the thought, that he lives in his_ own country_, and among his relations and friends?
10611For how must they detest the very name of_ Christians_, when you_ Christians_ are deformed by so many and dreadful vices?
10611For how shamefully must these unfortunate people have been oppressed?
10611For if this is the mode to be adopted in literary disputes, what writer can be safe?
10611For if this restraining principle be as powerful as it is imagined, why does not the general conduct of men afford us a better picture?
10611For what is it that awakens the abilities of men, and distinguishes them from the common herd?
10611Had there been a necessity, where had the wretched captive survived to be broken with chains and servitude?
10611Have the unfortunate_ convicts_ been guilty of injury to_ you_?
10611Have the wretched Africans formally resigned their freedom?
10611Have they broken_ your_ treaties?
10611Have they carried_ your_ wives and children into slavery, that_ you_ should thus retaliate?
10611Have they offended_ you_ even by word or gesture?
10611Have they plundered_ your_ ships?
10611Have you any other claim upon their obedience, than that of force?
10611Have you not heard me sigh, while we have been talking?
10611Hence Polybius;"What must they,( the Mantinenses) suffer, to receive the punishment they deserve?
10611How could his design have been accomplished?
10611How many have leaped into the sea?
10611How many have pined to death, that, even at the expence of their lives, they might fly from your_ benevolence_?
10611How must they detest that system of religion, which appears to resist the natural rights of men, and to give a sanction to brutality and murder?
10611How then shall we attempt to ascertain it?
10611How then shall we begin the refutation?
10611How then shall we begin?
10611Is it applied then, that others may be deterred from the same proceedings, and that crimes may become less frequent?
10611Is it applied to amend the manners of the criminal, and thus render him a better subject?
10611Is it not frequently the hope of temporary honours, or a lasting fame?
10611Is it not often the amiable hope of becoming serviceable to individuals, or the state?
10611Is it not often the hope of riches, or of power?
10611Now what must we justly conclude from such a supposition?
10611Now, which of these are we to believe on the occasion?
10611Or if he has been taken from the care of an indulgent master, who consulted his pleasures, and administered to his wants?
10611Or that he might taste the charms of liberty with_ a greater relish_?
10611Or who is there, that will not be deterred from taking up his pen in the cause of virtue?
10611Or, do we allude to that punishment, which may be inflicted on them here, as members of a wicked community?
10611Or, rather, let me ask, did they ever cease complaining of their condition under you their lordly masters?
10611Shall we enumerate the many important services, that they rendered both to the individuals and the community, under whom they lived?
10611Shall we enumerate the many instances of fidelity, patience, or valour, that are recorded of the_ servile_ race?
10611Shall we look into the various climates of the earth, see the colour that generally prevails in the inhabitants of each, and apply the rule?
10611Shall we say with Seneca, who saw many of the slaves in question,"What is a_ knight_, or a_ libertine_, or a_ slave_?
10611That he can never be_ sold_ as a beast?
10611That he can not even be struck_ with impunity_?
10611That he can speak his mind_ without the fear of the lash_?
10611That he is actually_ free_, and that his children will be the same?
10611That state which each man, under the guidance of his maker, forms for himself, and not one man for another?
10611The first point, that occurs to be ascertained, is,"What part of the skin is the seat of colour?"
10611This is generally true: but would any one of them make himself a_ slave_ for years, that he might run the chance of the pleasures of_ manumission_?
10611Those, who endeavour to dress_ vice_ in the habit of_ virtue_, or those, who derive their opinion from their own feelings?
10611What answer do you make to this?
10611What arguments can they possibly bring in their defence?
10611What can possibly be the cause?
10611What is he to do in such a trying situation?
10611What is_ Christianity_, but a system of_ murder_ and_ oppression_?
10611What then must be their sufferings, to be forced for ever from their country, which includes them all?
10611What treaty of empire can they produce, by which their innocent victims ever resigned to them the least portion of their_ liberty_?
10611What would the reader have thought on the occasion?
10611When a train of mutilated slaves shall be brought against him?
10611When did He say, that you should have the privilege of selling others, and that others should not have the privilege of selling you?
10611When did nature, or rather the Author of nature, make so partial a distinction between you and them?
10611When he shall stand confounded and abashed?
10611Where do you live yourself?
10611Where is the military man, whose ears have been slit, whose limbs have been mutilated, or whose eyes have been beaten out?
10611Which makes them motionless in an instant?
10611Who is there, that has once known the charms of liberty; that would not fly from despotism?
10611Why are her children wrested from her, to administer to the luxuries and greatness of those whom they never offended?
10611Why do you kill them with fatigue?
10611Why do you not measure them here by the same standard?
10611Why do you sentence them to death?
10611Why does the whip deform their bodies, or the knife their limbs?
10611Why is Africa a scene of blood and desolation?
10611Why keep you your daily and nightly watches?
10611Why then do you load them with chains?
10611Will you be content to live in the colonies, and you shall have the half of every week entirely to yourselves?
10611Would he have believed the fact?
10611Would you not resist it with a safe conscience?
10611can the most credulous believe it?
10611do you thus judge from your own feelings?
10611or will you choose to return to your miserable, wretched country?"
10611that tempts an unoffended person to kill the slave, that abhors and flies your service?
10611to a death, infinitely more excruciating than that from which you so kindly saved them?
10611we reply again,"can the cries and groans, with which the air now trembles, be heard across this extensive continent?
10898A staircase?
10898And do those coloured preachers ever occupy your pulpit?
10898And does your pastor,I inquired,"recognise them, and have fellowship with them?"
10898And what can you do?
10898And what next? 10898 And why does your owner sell you?"
10898Are you related to each other?
10898But what, may I ask, have these operations cost beyond what you have received in the way of school- fees?
10898Can you make a panelled door?
10898Does the Doctor, then,said I,"deliver a lecture this morning?"
10898Driver, why do n''t you be off?
10898Have you lived long in the city?
10898How far is it?
10898I suppose,continued I,"if any of the black people come to your churches, they have to sit by themselves?"
10898Is it Mr. Plummer''s church?
10898Is it a Welsh Church?
10898Is it such an exercise,I continued,"as a stranger may attend?"
10898Is this the way to St. Louis Exchange?
10898Looking out for a few niggers this morning?
10898Now, gentlemen, what do you offer for Ben?
10898Now, gentlemen, who bids for Margaret and her child? 10898 Now, gentlemen, who bids for Tom?
10898Now, gentlemen, who bids for this girl? 10898 Now, how much for this man and his wife?
10898Now, who bids for Jim? 10898 Now, who bids for Margaret and her child?"
10898Now, who bids for Tom? 10898 Now, who bids for this family?
10898Please to direct me to St. Louis Exchange?
10898Please, sir,said I to the first man I met,"to tell me where St. Louis Exchange is?"
10898Sash windows?
10898To whom do you belong?
10898Well, Joe, did you stick to the pledge?
10898What are you going to do with yourself this afternoon?
10898What have_ you_ to propose, sir?
10898What in the world is that?
10898What is the difference,said Dr. Beecher once to a ship- captain,"between an English sailor and a Yankee one?"
10898Where human law o''errules Divine, Beneath the sheriff''s hammer fell My wife and babes,--I call them mine,-- And where they suffer who can tell? 10898 Where is Abel, thy brother?"
10898Where is Abel, thy brother?
10898Where is Abel, thy brother?
10898Where is the agent of the stage- coach company?
10898Where is the landlord of this house?
10898Where shall I find you?
10898Why not? 10898 Why not?"
10898You are a carpenter, are you not?
10898( reasoned I) is this the sequel to the Democratic meeting of last night?
10898--"I have no objection, sir,--what time does your service commence?"
10898--"What congregation do you mean, sir?"
10898--"Where will you be?"
108986:"Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
108986:''Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
10898A military officer-- a conceited puppy-- asked the landlord if that"nigger"was going to sit down?
10898After the usual salutation, he said,"Shall we hear your voice at our place to- morrow afternoon?"
10898After this, are men to be branded as"infidels,"because they say the American churches are the"bulwarks of slavery?"
10898Among other questions, he asked how our negroes worked, now that they were free?
10898And what was the conduct of this Doctor of Divinity in reference to this state of things?
10898And who was the speaker?
10898And who was this Dr. Plummer?
10898Are there not hundreds of free men, both black and white, who could not_ prove_ their freedom under such circumstances?
10898As I stood listening, an overgrown boy came by, of whom I inquired,"Where does that singing come from?"
10898Assuming all the confidence I could muster, I said,"Which is Squires?"
10898But did you overhear what those three or four low dirty men said as we approached?
10898But have they tried?
10898But how came Congregationalism to be so deteriorated?
10898But how runs the conservative clause which led to this digression?
10898But how was it to be accomplished?
10898But what has all this to do with our fine- looking and dignified"_ Doctor_?"
10898But what was to become of my fellow- traveller in the meantime?
10898But where are the descendants of those Indians on whose behalf he felt such intense solicitude?
10898But where are those Indians, or their descendants?
10898But, observe you that feeble, tottering old gentleman coming along the avenue?
10898But, say you, Tell us in a few words what you think of America upon the whole?
10898By- and- by I observe him very busy with some slips of paper; and I ask him what he is doing?
10898Captain_ Stone_--"what''s in a name?"
10898Death?
10898Do you see that rudely- shaped, dark blue stone, about 2 feet in width, the same in height, and 8 inches thick?
10898Do you see the inscription upon it-- E W in coarsely- carved letters, and the figures 1658 over them?
10898Do you think you will ever get rid of it?"
10898Dr. S----, to- morrow morning let this be your text,--''Where is Abel, thy brother?''
10898For who can look with pleasure upon the foul abodes of lust, oppression, and cruelty?
10898Gibbs''s Gesenius?"
10898Has Mars, who presided at the town- hall, a seat in the lecture- room of this Theological Seminary?
10898Have they divided the House?
10898Have they protested?
10898Have they voted?
10898Having glanced at the note, he very hurriedly said to me,"Ah, how do you do?--very glad to see you!--where are you stopping at?"
10898He is twenty- six years of age-- an excellent house- servant-- guaranteed free,"& c.& c."What do you offer for Samson?"
10898He stared at me for a moment, and then said,"Do you mean a church with pews in it?"
10898How much do you offer for him?"
10898How much for Jacob?
10898How was this?
10898How?
10898How_ can_ men of sense, and especially ministers of the Gospel, sit down to pen such fustian?
10898I asked another,"Can you tell me where I shall find a Congregational church in this city?"
10898In a serious yet coaxing tone, she said,"Wo n''t you take a seat here on this side of the aisle?"
10898In answer to the question,"What church is this?"
10898It appeared to me quite natural to say,"Here is a State provision for schools,--why not have a similar provision for churches?
10898It works well for the one,--why not for the other?
10898Life?
10898May not these"snags"serve to remind us of certain characters and circumstances with which we meet on the voyage of life?
10898No; for what can_ there_ be found to gratify the friend of freedom and of man?
10898Or( for I am not very tall) why has he made me a man of 5 feet 6 inches instead of 6 feet high?
10898Shall I tell you of a most revolting abomination, which I know, on good authority, occurred about the time we were there?
10898Shall we, who are remnants, share the same fate?"
10898She inquired what for?
10898Should I go and see it?
10898The living ministry?
10898The next thing was this,--where is it located, and what is its distance from the sun?
10898The text was,"How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation?"
10898The title is good,"--(Is it, indeed?
10898The world?
10898Was there no public body, either civil or humane, to come forward on such an occasion?
10898What harm can it do you to receive the money of the State, provided it does not infringe upon your liberties?"
10898What say you for the pair?
10898What should I have been this day, if_ that_ Margaret"and her child"Ebenezer had been so treated?
10898What was her substitute for the kind voices and gentle soothings of affection?
10898What was the matter?
10898What was to be done?
10898When all unused to such employ As charms the angelic hands, How can you hope to share their joy Who dwell in heavenly lands?"
10898Where was the corporation, or some one of the municipalities?
10898Where would you like to have your treasure?
10898Who bids for him?
10898Who bids for him?
10898Who bids for him?"
10898Who bids for the boy Edmund?"
10898Who bids for the lot?
10898Who bids for this excellent washer and ironer?"
10898Who can assure them that they will at length be allowed to dwell in peace in their new retreat?
10898Who can not call to mind many snags-- men, rugged, stubborn, and contentious,--snags by all means to be avoided?
10898Who can realize the vast idea of 200 mouths, in one room, pouring forth the fumes of tobacco?
10898Who can think of his own mother, and not drop a tear of sympathy for this mother-- so young, so interesting, and yet so degraded?
10898Who could refuse?
10898Who makes an offer?
10898Who shall now paint the beauty and attraction of the expanded flower?
10898Who shall say, then, what lands shall be overshadowed by the full- grown pinion?
10898Who will not pity the 200,000 slaves of this State, who are at the"tender mercies"of these sanguinary men?
10898Why did they erect it on the slave rather than on the free side of the Ohio?
10898Why not?
10898Why should not the same facilities be afforded for obtaining better publications?
10898Will they yield, Doctor, to the"dictation of brethren beyond the sea?"
10898Would this be bad news to those old people?
10898Would you refuse a little_ coloured_ orphan admission into this asylum?"
10898_ Myself._--"And why has he made such a distinction between me and Tom Thumb?
10898_ Myself._--"Ay, but why should they not be together?--why should there be such a distinction between the children of our common Father?"
10898_ The Doctor._--"Why?
10898_ The Lady._( in a tone of triumph).--"Why has God made such a distinction between them?"
10898to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?"
10898to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?''
10898what is that compared to ascending the St. Charles''s, at New Orleans?
10898will you send me back?
10898will you send me back?
10898will you send me back?
10898will you send me back?"
28242The fashion of the times requires some information,said he;"but why do you concern yourself about the negroes?
28242What is the_ occupation_ of the white population of the planting States? 28242 Who are these emigrants-- these_ missionaries_?"
28242Why should you be anxious?
28242Will the annual revenue of fifteen thousand francs be sufficient?
28242A friend of mine asked,"Did the handkerchiefs contain texts from scripture?
28242Addressing white men, he says,"Is not your conduct, compared with your principles, a sacrilegious irony?
28242Am I reminded that the_ laws_ acknowledge these vested rights in human flesh?
28242And how does whipping men to death agree with the injunction,"Thou shalt do no_ murder_?"
28242And if such a great number could be removed annually, how would the poor fellows subsist?
28242And what will so effectually elevate their character and condition, as knowledge?
28242And where will you find an Indian chieftain, whose pride, intellect, and valor, are more than a match for Zhinga''s?
28242And why_ should_ they be removed?
28242Are enactments ever made against exigencies which do not exist?
28242Are the laws then made on purpose to urge tender- hearted masters to be so much worse than they really desire to be?
28242Are there many, think you, so desperately enamored of justice, as to take all this trouble, and incur all this risk, for a starving slave?
28242Are we not foolish as well as sinful, in trying to repress a tendency so salutary to themselves, and so beneficial to the community?
28242Are we not told"to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?"
28242Are we then forbidden to publish our opinions upon an important subject, for fear_ somebody_ will send them_ somewhere_?
28242But allowing that there is some danger in discontinuing slavery, is there not likewise danger in continuing it?
28242But did we not take the liberty to_ change_ English laws and customs, when they did not suit us?
28242But what do the laws themselves imply?
28242But who will present remonstrances against slavery?
28242Can the gentleman show us how from_ twelve thousand to twenty thousand_ can be_ annually_ carried to Liberia?"
28242Can you help respecting those negroes?
28242Did he think it likely to bear unfavorably upon"the nation of shopkeepers and pedlers?
28242Does not the command,"Thou shalt not_ steal_,"prohibit_ kidnapping_?
28242Granting it to be true,--is it their fault, or is it owing to the cruel circumstances in which they are placed?
28242Has not the mechanic-- have not the middle classes their rights?--rights incompatible with the existence of slavery?"
28242Have the negroes no right to ask compensation for their years and years of unrewarded toil?
28242He asks,"Did not the Asiatics employ elephants in war?
28242He was once asked, how many seconds has an individual lived when he is seventy years, seven months, and seven days old?
28242How can purity be expected from him, who sees almost universal licentiousness prevail among those whom he is taught to regard as his superiors?
28242How can slavery be reconciled with the maxim,"Do unto others, as ye would that others should do unto you?"
28242How is it that legislators and public men are so indifferent to their fame?
28242How many ships, and how many millions of money, would it require to do this?
28242I know that many of the planters affect to laugh at the idea of fearing their slaves; but why are their laws framed with such cautious vigilance?
28242I shall perhaps be asked why I have said so much about the slave-_trade_, since it was long ago abolished in this country?
28242If a man were bitten by a mad dog, would he hesitate to cut off the wounded part in order to save his life?"
28242If a slave be found toiling in the field on the Sabbath, who can_ prove_ that his master commanded him to do it?
28242If a slave should_ not_ obtain a decree in his favor, what has he to expect from a master exasperated against him, for making the attempt?
28242If the protection of commerce had been the real object of the war, would not some preparations have been made for a navy?
28242If the public lands are taken from the nation, and given to the States in which the soil lies, who will get the largest share?
28242If this be not a good time to apply a remedy, when will be a better?
28242If we persist in acting in opposition to the established laws of nature and reason, how can we expect favorable results?
28242In relation to this question, I would ask,"Is there anybody so high, that they do not see others above them?"
28242In reply let me inquire, how long did the Europeans ridicule_ us_ for our poverty in literature?
28242Is it asked what can be done?
28242Is it asked why Hayti has not produced any examples of splendid genius?
28242Is it not a fearful thing to keep immortal beings in a state like beasts?
28242Is it not obvious that the_ best_ portion of the colored class are the very ones to prize such an opportunity for instruction?
28242Is it not very natural for the Africans to say"devilish white?"
28242Is not England trying with all her might to atone for the wrong she has done?
28242Is slavery to remain a sealed book in this most communicative of all ages, and this most inquisitive of all countries?
28242Is there an American willing that the intellectual and the learned should bear despotic sway over the simple and the ignorant?
28242It will, perhaps, be said that the free people of color in the slave portions of_ this_ country are peculiarly ignorant, idle, and vicious?
28242Judging by this rule, what inference must be drawn from the facts stated above?
28242Let me ask you, candid reader, what you would be, if you labored under the same unnatural circumstances?
28242Must our arguments be based upon justice and mercy to the slaveholders_ only_?
28242Must the country languish and die, that the slaveholder may flourish?
28242Now I would ask any candid person why colored children should_ not_ be educated?
28242Of these, a large number was suddenly emancipated, and what has been the effect?
28242Shall I be told that all these regulations are necessary for the white man''s safety?
28242Shall all interest be subservient to one?--all rights subordinate to those of the slaveholder?
28242Shall society suffer, that the slaveholder may continue to gather his_ vigintial crop_ of human flesh?
28242Since the condition of slaves is such as I have described, are you surprised at occasional insurrections?
28242Soon may the old skins burst?
28242The commandant asked,"Is thy king as powerful as the King of Portugal?"
28242The information must, in the first place, be given by a_ white man_ upon oath; and of whom must the"particular inquiries"be made?
28242The merely sensual man is no doubt merry and heedless; but who would call him happy?
28242Then why do their Legislatures grant it as a reward for"_ meritorious services to the State_?"
28242These facts suggest the inquiry whether this cheap slave labor does not paralyze the industry of the whites?
28242These nations are bound to know the United States Laws; but can they be expected to know the enactments of particular States and cities?
28242To what is this change ascribable?
28242To what, sir, is all this ascribable?
28242True, they do sometimes murder their masters and overseers; but where there is utter hopelessness, can we wonder at occasional desperation?
28242Was not this true magnanimity?
28242What are their_ qualifications_?
28242What chance has an ignorant slave before a tribunal chosen by his accuser, suddenly convoked, and consisting of but five persons?"
28242What is his mere pecuniary claim, compared with the great interests of the common weal?
28242What then, let me indignantly ask, what must the system be that_ requires_ to be supported by such unnatural, such tyrannical means?
28242What was it that changed the intellectual and moral character of these people, after ages of ignorance and ferocity?
28242What would be the result of landing several thousand destitute beings, even on the most fertile of our own cultivated shores?
28242What would the South have?
28242What_ could_ an Englishman do in such a case?
28242When the negro is old, or feeble from incurable disease, is it his master''s_ interest_ to feed him well, and clothe him comfortably?
28242Where could such a monstrous anomaly be found, save in a code of slave laws?
28242Where rests the guilt in this case?
28242Where the opportunities of insurrection have been so frequent, and so tempting, what has been the effect?
28242Whether_ idleness_ is not the greatest of their evils?"
28242Who does not see that the American people are walking over a subterranean fire, the flames of which are fed by slavery?
28242Who shall decide what punishment is_ unusual_?
28242Why are they not allowed to be out in the evening, or to carry even a stick to defend themselves, in case of necessity?
28242Why can not such subjects be found?
28242Why did Jefferson so earnestly, and so very humbly request the Legislature of Virginia to ratify the manumission of his five_ favorite_ slaves?
28242Why do benevolent masters bequeath the legacy of freedom,"in consideration of long and faithful service?"
28242Why do n''t you excite the horses to an insurrection, because they are obliged to work, and are whipped if they do not?"
28242Why do not Christians deal justly by us, before they require us to deal mercifully with them?
28242Why do we execrate in one set of men, what we laud so highly in another?
28242Why must not negroes of different plantations communicate together?
28242Why not put away_ this_, as well as other evils of much less consequence?
28242Why should not colored men be employed in the manufactories of various kinds?
28242Why should their presence be any more disagreeable as hired laborers, than as slaves?
28242Why should they not give up slavery to please us, by the same rule that we must refrain from educating the negroes to please them?
28242Why should we retard this crisis?
28242Why then should we shut our eyes and turn our backs upon the evil?
28242Will delay render it less gigantic, or give us more Herculean strength to meet and subdue it at a future time?
28242Will no buckra master pity nega?
28242Would Mr. Roane carry out his logic into all its details?
28242Would he cherish intemperance, that sobriety might shine the brighter?
28242Would he encourage theft, in order to throw additional lustre upon honesty?
28242Would the addition of one or two hundred more even be perceived?
28242and if they know them, are they bound to observe them, if they interfere with the established rules of nations?
28242and when, whipping nearly unto death is authorized as the punishment?
28242or quotations from the Constitution of the United States?"
28242what would_ you_ do, if the laws admitted that your wives might"_ die_"of"_ moderate punishment_,"administered by your employers?
28242where and when Wilt thou find patience?
28242will it be believed, and have no influence upon our veneration for the negro?)
9595Are there not other great interests?
9595How does it happen,inquires an able writer,"that whenever duty is named we begin to hear of the weakness of human nature?
9595Is not this the fast that I have chosen? 9595 The existence of slavery among us, though not at all to be objected to our Southern brethren as a fault,"etc?
9595Who is he?
9595--But why talk of amelioration?
9595Above all, has his infant child forfeited its unalienable right?
9595Amelioration of what?
9595And how many shopkeepers are there anywhere that would be over scrupulous in questioning a customer with a full purse?"
9595And if the slave- trade has become thus odious, what must be the fate, erelong, of its parent, slavery?
9595And pray how has it been with the white race, for whom our philosopher claims the divine prerogative of enslaving?
9595And should not decided action follow our deep convictions of the wrong of slavery?
9595And what does this prove?
9595And what has been the consequence of this general belief in the evil of human servitude?
9595And what is this system which we are thus protecting and upholding?
9595And why should it not exult?
9595Are we to be denied even the right of a slave, the right to murmur?
9595But stay who are these emigrants, these missionaries?
9595Can it be possible that our fathers felt this state necessity strong upon them?
9595Can such hollow sympathy reach the broken of heart, and does the blessing of those who are ready to perish answer it?
9595Can you find any excuse for them in the nature of the human mind, everywhere maddened by injury and conciliated by kindness?
9595Did the slaves baptize their freedom in blood?
9595Did they fight like unchained desperadoes because they had been made free?
9595Did they murder their emancipators?
9595Do they afford a reasonable protext for your fierce denunciations of your Northern brethren?
9595Do you find them in the emancipation of the South American Republics?
9595Does either embrace anything false, fanatical, or unconstitutional?
9595Does history, ancient or modern, justify your fears?
9595Does it become such a one to rave against the West India negro''s incapacity for self- civilization?
9595Does it hold back the lash from the slave, or sweeten his bitter bread?
9595Does there exist even in Virginia any law limiting the punishment of a slave?
9595During those years of sinful compromise the crime of man- robbery less atrocious than at present?
9595For what is slavery, after all, but fear,--fear, forcing mind and body into unnatural action?
9595Freemen, Christians, lovers of truth and justice Why stand ye idle?
9595Gentlemen, is not this true?
9595Has it decreased the number of its victims?
9595Has it sapped the foundations of the infamous system?
9595Has man husbanded well the good gifts of God, and are they nevertheless passing from him, by a process of deterioration over which he has no control?
9595Has the negro committed such offence?
9595Have our own peculiar warnings gone by unheeded,--the frequent slave insurrections of the South?
9595Have the people reflected upon the cause of this silence?
9595He that planted the ear, shall He not hear?
9595He who formed the eye, shall He not see?"
9595How did Toussaint succeed?
9595In Hayti?
9595In the partial experiments of some of the West India Islands?
9595In what exigency has he been found wanting?
9595Is all this in the ordinary course of nature?
9595Is not this offering a reward for perjury?
9595Is the rapid increase of a population of slaves in itself no evil?
9595Is this a remedy?
9595Let her and Falsehood grapple; whoever knew her to be put to the worst in a free and open encounter?"
9595Need I refer to the many revolts of the Roman and Grecian slaves, the bloody insurrection of Etruria, the horrible servile wars of Sicily and Capua?
9595Of what use to the district of Plymouth( which he there represented) was the standing army of the United States?
9595Once more we repeat the solemn inquiry which has been already made in our columns,"Is the Bible to enslave the world?"
9595Or, to come down to later times, to France in the fourteenth century, Germany in the sixteenth, to Malta in the last?
9595Palliating the evil, hiding the evil, voting for the evil, do we not participate in it?
9595Shall we denounce the slave- holders of the states, while we retain our slavery in the District of Columbia?
9595That ark must fall; that idol must be cast down; what, then, will be the fate of their supporters?
9595The truths of the gospel, its voice of warning and exhortation, will be denounced as incendiary?
9595To loose the bands of wickedness; to undo the heavy burdens and let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?"
9595To what remedy, then, can the friends of humanity betake themselves but to that of emancipation?
9595True; but will you point out instances of masters suffering the penalty of that law for the murder of their slaves?
9595What are their qualifications?
9595What but a few months ago arrayed in arms a state against the Union, and the Union against a state?
9595What has it done for amelioration?
9595What has made desolate and sterile one of the loveliest regions of the whole earth?
9595What in fact was the occupation of the army?
9595What is slavery?
9595What legislative act of public utility for the last eighteen years has lacked his encouragement?
9595What shook the pillars of the Union when the Missouri question was agitated?
9595What, then, is our duty?
9595When, where, did justice to the injured waken their hate and vengeance?
9595When, where, did love and kindness and sympathy irritate and madden the persecuted, the broken- hearted, the foully wronged?
9595Where, then, will be the pride, the beauty, and the chivalry of the South?
9595Why are we thus willing to believe a lie?
9595Why, then, should we stretch out our hands towards our Southern brethren, and like the Pharisee thank God we are not like them?
9595Will the evidence of your own Jefferson, on this point, be admissible?
9595Will you, gentlemen, will the able editors of the United States Telegraph and the Columbian Telescope, explain?
9595perhaps you will ask,"do you expect to overthrow our whole slave system at once?
9595shall we heed the unrighteous prohibition?
9595to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free?"
9595to turn loose to- day two millions of negroes?"
32500He took all the guilt of this system, and he laid it where? 32500 Is there no remedy, I again ask, for the evils of which I have sketched a faint and imperfect picture?
32500Where are the slaves you have liberated?
32500Why do n''t you go to the South?
32500''Was he[ the inhabitant of Louisiana] to be told then, that he should turn off his slaves?''
32500''Who dare pretend,''asks the Emancipator,''That the American church does not uphold and countenance Christian slaveholders in their conduct?
32500Again, Did the Romans,( Japhethites,) exterminate the Jews,( Shemites?)
32500Again: what said the Synod of South Carolina and Georgia, in a report on the state of the colored population, in respect of religious instruction?
32500Again: what says a writer in a recent number of the Charleston, South Carolina, Observer?
32500Am I not told that God hath made of_ one_ blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth?
32500And can it be the duty of any commonwealth to bring upon itself"instantly,"--or at all-- such a condition as this?
32500And had Mr. T. bowels of compassion only for the black man?
32500And how many''hundreds of black men''have fallen victims to it?
32500And what did they suppose was the truth in the present case?
32500And what was the answer the planters gave to these disturbers of the public peace?
32500And what were the facts in the present case?
32500And where, then, lay the difference?
32500And who was Elizur Wright?
32500And why not reprisals prevent all other kinds of violence, as well as man- stealing?
32500Are they unworthy of republicans and of Christians?
32500Aye, once the eloquent tongues voiced its praise, and the gold and silver were its tributaries-- where is it now?
32500Believing immediate emancipation_ a duty_, is it strange that we pray, and preach, and print about it?
32500Believing slavery to be sin, is it strange that we hate it, and speak strongly respecting it?
32500But how is it with the_ governing influences_ of the church?
32500But how stood the facts of the case itself?
32500But to what does her abolition of even the foreign slave trade amount?
32500But where is the need of colonies?
32500But who is their teacher?
32500By their fruits shall ye know them; do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
32500C. C. Jones, in a sermon preached before two associations of planters in Georgia, in 1831?
32500Could he have believed it himself?
32500Could he have expected it to be believed?
32500Did Mr. B. show the placard?
32500Did he demonstrate its identity with Mr. Garrison''s paper?
32500Did the Arab Shemite conquerors of Egypt exterminate the ancient inhabitants( Hamites,) who still exist, and are known by the name of Copts or Cophti?
32500Do her cruizers ever capture a slave ship?
32500Do present facts sustain it?
32500Do the various African tribes never make reprisals?
32500Does Mr. B. believe that the people of Glasgow supposed Northern ministers to be generally slaveholders?
32500Does past history sustain this doctrine?
32500Eighth-- How did they admit Missouri into the Union with slaves?
32500For how stood the facts?
32500Had they not compromised every principle of justice and truth, by permitting slaveholding in their Union?
32500Had they not even bestowed exclusive privileges on the slaveholders?
32500Has he not given me a law by which to walk?
32500Has he not told me to love my neighbor as myself?
32500Have they or theirs released from his bonds a single slave?
32500Have they then that amount of oral instruction, which, in their circumstances, is necessary to their enjoyment of the gospel?
32500He would ask if there was any thing here different from what he had read from his respected opponent?
32500He would ask them, what had they done?
32500How happens it then, that the slave trade, and the whole business of man- stealing has not been long since suppressed?
32500How in the name of common honesty is such deceitful handling of the truth to be tolerated in a Christian community?
32500How stood the fact?
32500If not, what does he mean?
32500If not, why denounce the North for saying it should be suppressed?
32500If the laws were found more oppressive in Maryland, how did it come that the free blacks congregated there from all other parts of America?
32500If the thing be utterly beyond the reach of the abolitionists, why dread it as an evil?
32500If there be not, then, why may Shem and Japhet intermarry, but Ham with neither?
32500Is it by a similar process that''colonizing Africa by black men,''is to''prevent the extirpation''of the natives of that continent?
32500Is it right of suffrage?
32500Is it then true, that Mr. Thompson and his American friends, did contemplate a servile war?
32500Is that''complete humbug''too?
32500It may well be asked how much less sinful it was to rob men of their good name, than of their freedom?
32500It was said, no doubt, that the laws prevented this; but who made the laws?
32500Mr. T. then read the following passage from a speech delivered by Mr. Breckinridge:-- What, then, is slavery?
32500Now what political rights does he claim for the free blacks-- and denounce all America for refusing, on account of this prejudice against color?
32500Now, he would ask, was this fair; was it magnanimous; was it generous; was it Christianlike?
32500Now, if Mr. Thompson wished to begin a system of levelling-- if he meant to preach universal equality, why did he not begin here?
32500Now, on this head, he would only ask, had he the power of fixing the place of his birth?
32500Or are the persons as"fictitious"as their stories?''
32500Or why are we to be attacked first with cannon on one side, and then with Billingsgate on the other side of this vexed question?
32500Ought we to denounce our Southern neighbors if they refuse to do the work at a blow?
32500Out of our ten thousand churches perhaps half are involved in this sin?
32500Perhaps a tenth part?
32500Surely one Presbytery at least?
32500That we take all peaceful means of making known the great truth; of warning men against the danger of delay; and exhorting them to repentance?
32500The Emancipator pertinently asks,''Can Mr. B. tell us who"Truth"and"A New England man"are?
32500Then why is not a man an African if born of African parents in America, as well as a Briton, if born of British parents there?
32500They might interfere, but the question was, how were they to do so?
32500This being the case, we ask,_ how are the people of this colony to live_?
32500To sum up Mr. Breckinridge''s last address, what, he would ask, had been its whole aim?
32500WHERE DO THESE THINGS OCCUR?
32500Was he to consider that as an answer in the affirmative?
32500Was not every freeholder in this country registered?
32500Were such persons to be approached with vituperation and anathemas?
32500Were the people of America right when they charged him and his co- workers with stirring up insurrection?
32500Were they Southern votes which admitted it?
32500What Christian corporation is a proprietor of men?
32500What advantage was he to gain as a slave, by the discussion, even if no harm came from it?
32500What advantage was he to obtain as a freeman even if its agitation did not forever prevent him from being free?
32500What church owns slaves?
32500What could be the cause of such an anomaly?
32500What have we done, what have we said to warrant this charge?
32500What if you do have to leave the seminary?
32500What is it constitutes heathenism?
32500What right, I demand, have the children of Africa to a homestead in the white man''s country?
32500What said the Baltimore Chronicle, a pro- slavery and colonization paper, at the time when the laws referred to were passed?
32500What said the Maryland Temperance Herald of May 3, 1835?
32500What says the United States''census?
32500What then is the inference?
32500What then is the position of the governing influences of the American church in regard to American slavery?
32500What was the fact?
32500What was the use of blazoning forth a doctrine which was in all likelihood false and ruinous, but which, were it true, could do no good?
32500What will it be fifty or a hundred years hence,_ should the discipline be_ ALTERED_ as it has been during half a century past_?
32500What, I ask, have I to do with the decrees of the Almighty?
32500What, Sir, are our measures, but the simplest means of making known our principles?
32500Where are the students of the Lane seminary?
32500Where, in the documents of abolitionists, was the doctrine of instant and universal enfranchisement, of which so much had been heard?
32500Who can tell where this"great"and growing"evil,"will end?
32500Who had ever heard of a nobleman marrying a gipsy?
32500Why could he not pray silently to the searcher of hearts?
32500Why did he not go to the back of the house?
32500Why had not the wise and benevolent members of the society denounced that prejudice?
32500Why had not this branch of the subject been adverted to by Mr. Thompson?
32500Why is it we never hear of the stealing of an Englishman, a German, or a Turk?
32500Why is this?
32500Why not let the abolitionists pursue their foolish and impracticable schemes?
32500Why not shut the window?
32500Why were the American people taxed in order to maintain bayonets, blunderbusses, and artillery in the South?
32500Why, then, send six thousand bayonets to the South for the protection of the slaveholder?
32500Will it be said he did not know his rights?
32500for the question relates to the action of certain principles on it, and to its probable and proper results; what is slavery as it exists among us?
32500is it perfect, personal, and political equality?
32500is it right of office?
32500or, of a king of England marrying a laborer''s daughter?
32500that those principles which are said to be loved and admired here, are repudiated there to the extremity of pertinacious obstinacy?
32500the naughty mob sha n''t get him, shall they?''
32500to marry Japhethite, American females?
32500to"honor all men?"
32500what was a stronger injunction in the law of Moses than that the Israelites should protect the run- away slave?
32500would the world hold the farmer or the merchant guiltless?
9575ALL ready?
9575Are all the dead dogs over?
9575Genius of America!--Spirit of our free institutions!--where art thou? 9575 Against the burden of that voice what tyrant power shall stand? 9575 And asks our haughty neighbor more? 9575 And must we yield to Freedom''s God, As offering meet, the negro''s blood? 9575 And see our Freedom''s light grow dim, Which should have filled the world with flame? 9575 And shall the Russian serf go free By Baikal''s lake and Neva''s wave? 9575 And shall the slanderer''s demon breath Avail with one like me, To dim the sunshine of my faith And earnest trust in thee? 9575 And shall the slave, beneath our eye, Clank o''er our fields his hateful chain? 9575 And shall the wintry- bosomed Dane Relax the iron hand of pride, And bid his bondmen cast the chain From fettered soul and limb aside? 9575 And shall we crouch above these graves, With craven soul and fettered lip? 9575 And shall we know and share with him The danger and the growing shame? 9575 And toss his fettered arms on high, And groan for Freedom''s gift, in vain? 9575 And watched the trials which have made Thy human spirit strong? 9575 And what are ye who strive with God Against the ark of His salvation, Moved by the breath of prayer abroad, With blessings for a dying nation? 9575 And why with reckless hand I plant A nettle on the graves ye honor? 9575 And will ye ask me, why this taunt Of memories sacred from the scorner? 9575 And, in Oppression''s hateful service, libel Both man and God? 9575 And, writhing, feel, where''er we turn, A world''s reproach around us burn? 9575 Are these the graves they slumber in? 9575 Are we the sons by whom are borne The mantles which the dead have worn? 9575 Art thou become as one of us?
9575Art thou become like unto us?"
9575Corpse after corpse came up, Death had been busy there; Where every blow is mercy, Why should the spoiler spare?
9575Feel ye no earthquake underneath?
9575Forgets she how the Bay State, in answer to the call Of her old House of Burgesses, spoke out from Faneuil Hall?
9575Give thanks, and rob thy own afflicted poor?
9575HAVE ye heard of our hunting, o''er mountain and glen, Through cane- brake and forest,--the hunting of men?
9575Has he not, with the light of heaven Broadly around him, made the same?
9575Hast Thou not said that whatsoe''er is done Unto Thy weakest and Thy humblest one Is even done to Thee?
9575Hath she forgot the day When o''er her conquered valleys swept the Briton''s steel array?
9575Have I not known thee well, and read Thy mighty purpose long?
9575Hear ye no warnings in the air?
9575How side by side, with sons of hers, the Massachusetts men Encountered Tarleton''s charge of fire, and stout Cornwallis, then?
9575In madness shall we barter, For treacherous peace, the freedom Nature gave us, God and our charter?
9575Is not Thy hand stretched forth Visibly in the heavens, to awe and smite?
9575Is this the land our fathers loved, The freedom which they toiled to win?
9575Is this the soil whereon they moved?
9575Is''t not enough that this is borne?
9575Must fetters which his slaves have worn Clank round the Yankee farmer''s door?
9575Must he be told his freedom stands On Slavery''s dark foundations strong; On breaking hearts and fettered hands, On robbery, and crime, and wrong?
9575Must he be told, beside his plough, What he must speak, and when, and how?
9575Of human skulls that shrine was made, Round which the priests of Mexico Before their loathsome idol prayed; Is Freedom''s altar fashioned so?
9575Oh, say, shall Prussia''s banner be A refuge for the stricken slave?
9575Oh, who could dream that saw thee then, And watched thy rising from afar, That vapors from oppression''s fen Would cloud the upward tending star?
9575Shall Belgium feel, and gallant France, By Vendome''s pile and Schoenbrun''s wall, And Poland, gasping on her lance, The impulse of our cheering call?
9575Shall Honor bleed?--shall Truth succumb?
9575Shall Mercy''s tears no longer flow?
9575Shall Pity''s bosom cease to swell?
9575Shall a Republic be less free than a Monarchy?
9575Shall every flap of England''s flag Proclaim that all around are free, From farthest Ind to each blue crag That beetles o''er the Western Sea?
9575Shall freemen lock the indignant thought?
9575Shall not the living God of all the earth, And heaven above, do right?
9575Shall our New England stand erect no longer, But stoop in chains upon her downward way, Thicker to gather on her limbs and stronger Day after day?
9575Shall our own brethren drag the chain Which not even Russia''s menials wear?
9575Shall our own glorious land retain That curse which Europe scorns to bear?
9575Shall outraged Nature cease to feel?
9575Shall pen, and press, and soul be dumb?
9575Shall the United States-- the free United States, which could not bear the bonds of a king-- cradle the bondage which a king is abolishing?
9575Shall tongues be mute, when deeds are wrought Which well might shame extremest hell?
9575Shall watch and ward be round him set, Of Northern nerve and bayonet?
9575Shall we, in the vigor and buoyancy of our manhood, be less energetic in righteousness than a kingdom in its age?"
9575Sons of old freemen, do we but inherit Their names alone?
9575THE PASS OF THE SIERRA A SONG FOR THE TIME WHAT OF THE DAY?
9575Talk of thy glorious liberty, and then Bolt hard the captive''s door?
9575That all his fathers taught is vain,-- That Freedom''s emblem is the chain?
9575The parson has turned; for, on charge of his own, Who goeth a warfare, or hunting, alone?
9575They cater to tyrants?
9575They rivet the chain, Which their fathers smote off, on the negro again?
9575Torture the pages of the hallowed Bible, To sanction crime, and robbery, and blood?
9575Was it thus with those, your predecessors, Who sealed with racks, and fire, and ropes Their loving- kindness to transgressors?
9575What asks the Old Dominion?
9575What marvel, if at times they spurn The ancient yoke of your dominion?
9575What marvel, if the people learn To claim the right of free opinion?
9575What means the Old Dominion?
9575What, but the stubble and the hay To perish, even as flax consuming, With all that bars His glorious way, Before the brightness of His coming?
9575Where then was he whose fiery zeal Had taught the trampled heart to feel, Until despair itself grew strong, And vengeance fed its torch from wrong?
9575Who bids for God''s own image?
9575Who comes in his pride to that low cottage- door, The haughty and rich to the humble and poor?
9575Will the call to the rescue of Freedom be vain?
9575Will their hearts fail within them?
9575Woe, now, to the hunted who turns him at bay Will our hunters be turned from their purpose and prey?
9575Yea, on his thousand war- fields striven, And gloried in his ghastly shame?
9575Yoke in with marked and branded slaves, And tremble at the driver''s whip?
9575and art thou fallen thus?
9575and shall we calmly rest, The Christian''s scorn, the heathen''s mirth, Content to live the lingering jest And by- word of a mocking Earth?
9575can such things be?
9575for his grace, Which that poor victim of the market- place Hath in her suffering won?
9575for the pride of man is low, The counsels of the wise are naught, The fountains of repentance flow; What hath our God in mercy wrought?
9575for the pride of man is low, The counsels of the wise are naught, The fountains of repentance flow; What hath our God in mercy wrought?
9575for who will ride then, For pleasure or gain, to the hunting of men?
9575how long Shall priestly robbers at Thine altar stand, Lifting in prayer to Thee, the bloody hand And haughty brow of wrong?
9575how long Shall such a priesthood barter truth away, And in Thy name, for robbery and wrong At Thy own altars pray?
9575is that church, which lends Strength to the spoiler, thine?
9575not for thee Our tears are shed, our sighs are given; Why mourn to know thou art a free Partaker of the joys of heaven?
9575preach, and kidnap men?
9575shall their agony of prayer Come thrilling to our hearts in vain?
9575shall we guard our neighbor still, While woman shrieks beneath his rod, And while he tramples down at will The image of a common God?
9575shall we henceforth humbly ask as favors Rights all our own?
9575shall we send, with lavish breath, Our sympathies across the wave, Where Manhood, on the field of death, Strikes for his freedom or a grave?
9575their nerves tremble, when All roughly they ride to the hunting of men?
9575unto Thee May not our humble prayer be given?
9575what cries Rang upward unto thee?
9575where''s the manly spirit Of the true- hearted and the unshackled gone?
9575why will ye delay, When their pride and their glory are melting away?
9575why will ye slumber where The sleeper only wakes in death?
9575will ye falter With all they left ye perilled and at stake?
16516!_ Will any peace be given unto them?
16516)[ 13] Have not the Americans the Bible in their hands? 16516 ***** 1 Thy presence why withdraw''st thou, Lord? 16516 --I asked him why? 16516 --_Common Prayer Book._***** 1 Shall I for fear of feeble man, The Spirit''s coarse in me restrain? 16516 4 What then is he whose scorn I dread? 16516 Americans, I ask you, in the name of the Lord, can you deny these charges? 16516 And does he not suffer some, in consequence of cruelties, to go on until they are irrecoverably lost? 16516 Are Mr. Clay and the rest of the Americans, innocent of the blood and groans of our fathers and us, their children? 16516 Are not the hearts of all men in the hands of the God of battles? 16516 Are they not dying worms as well as we? 16516 Are they not the Lord''s enemies? 16516 Brethren what do you think of this? 16516 But do not actions speak louder than words?--have they not made provisions for the Greeks, and Irish? 16516 But do slave- holders think that we thank them for keeping us in miseries, and taking our lives by the inches? 16516 But how can they? 16516 But is Mr. Jefferson''s assertion true? 16516 But what has this gentleman done for the Lord, after having done so much for him? 16516 Can Christian Americans deny these barbarous cruelties? 16516 Can a man of color buy a piece of land and keep it peaceably? 16516 Can any thing be a greater mockery of religion than the way in which it is conducted by the Americans? 16516 Can he post a set of books in a mercantile manner? 16516 Can he write a neat piece of composition in prose or in verse? 16516 Can it be that which was preached by our Lord Jesus Christ from Heaven? 16516 Can the Americans escape God Almighty? 16516 Can the whites deny this charge? 16516 Can there be a greater absurdity in nature, and particularly in a free republican country? 16516 Can they get us any lower? 16516 Can they save him from the hand of the Lord Jesus Christ? 16516 Can we not discern the project of sending the free people of colour away from their country? 16516 Can we not go where we want to, as well as other people, only if we obey the voice of the Holy Ghost? 16516 Colonizationists speak of America being first colonized, but is there any comparison between the two? 16516 Could he blame any other being but himself? 16516 Did he mean sinking us and our children into ignorance and wretchedness, to support him and his family? 16516 Did he mean such as they have among the Americans-- distinction, whip, blood and oppression? 16516 Did not God make us as it seemed best to himself? 16516 Did our creator make us to be slaves to dust and ashes like ourselves? 16516 Did they receive it from the Bible? 16516 Do any deny this charge? 16516 Do any of you say that you and your family are free and happy and what have you to do with wretched slaves and other people? 16516 Do any of you say this will never be done? 16516 Do the colonizationists think to send us off without first being reconciled to us? 16516 Do they believe it? 16516 Do they not institute laws to prohibit us from marrying among the whites? 16516 Do they think that I would have the audacious wickedness to take the name of my God in vain? 16516 Do they think to bundle us up like brutes and send us off, as they did our brethren of the State of Ohio? 16516 Do we not belong to the Holy Ghost? 16516 Do you believe that the assertions of such a man, will pass away into oblivion unobserved by this people and the world? 16516 Do you believe that this assertion is swallowed by millions of the whites? 16516 Do you know that Mr. Jefferson was one of as great characters as ever lived among the whites? 16516 Do you say he is? 16516 Do you understand the above, Americans? 16516 Do you understand your own language? 16516 Does he regard the heathens abroad, more than the heathens among the Americans? 16516 Does it teach them any distinction on account of a man''s color? 16516 Does not vengeance belong to the Lord? 16516 Does the Lord condescend to hear their cries and see their tears in consequence of oppression? 16516 For how can they, when we are confirming him every day by our_ groveling submissions_ and_ treachery_? 16516 Has He not the hearts of all men in His hand? 16516 Has it all run out of your veins? 16516 Have they not to be reconciled to us, or reconcile us to them, for the cruelties with which they have afflicted our fathers and us? 16516 Have they not to make their appearance before the tribunal of heaven, to answer for the deeds done in the body, as well as we? 16516 Have we any other master but Jesus Christ alone? 16516 Have you been to Africa, teaching the inhabitants thereof the words of the Lord Jesus? 16516 How many thousand souls have the blacks murdered in cold blood to make them work in wretchedness and ignorance, to support them and their families? 16516 How many vessel loads of human beings have the blacks thrown into the seas? 16516 How then before thee shall I dare To stand, or how thine anger bear? 16516 How would they like for us to make slaves of, or hold them in cruel slavery, and murder them as they do us? 16516 I appeal to every man of feeling-- is not this insupportable? 16516 I ask every man who has a heart and is blessed with the privilege of believing-- Is not God a God of justice to all his creatures? 16516 I ask them, ought they not to be as humble as I? 16516 I ask them, where is the most barren spot of land which they have given unto us? 16516 I ask you candidly, was your sufferings under Great Britain one hundredth part as cruel and tyrannical as you have rendered ours under you? 16516 I ask you then, in the name of the Lord, of what kind can your religion be? 16516 I will ask one question here.--Can our condition be any worse?--Can it be more mean and abject? 16516 I wonder what would this gentleman think if the Lord should give him among the rest of his blessings enough of slaves? 16516 If God is against him, what can the Americans, together with the whole world do for him? 16516 If Satan has made you believe it, will he not deceive you? 16516 If all the people in Europe and America were as ignorant, and in the same situation as our brethren, what would become of the world? 16516 If it were possible would they not_ dethrone_ Jehovah and seat themselves upon his throne? 16516 If there are any changes, will they not be for the better, though they may appear for the worse at first? 16516 If they do, can he be to us a God of Justice? 16516 If they do, do they believe that he will be mocked? 16516 If you do you are much mistaken-- See how the American people treat us-- have we souls in our bodies? 16516 In a public speech delivered by him, he asked:Did I involve my country in an unnecessary war?"
16516In the name of God we ask, are you men?
16516Is GOD and Mammon in league?
16516Is he not their master as well as ours?--What right then, have we to obey and call any other master, but Himself?
16516Is it not for the interest of the slave- holders to select the free people of colour out of the different states, and send them to Liberia?
16516Is it not heaping the most gross insult upon our miseries, because they have got us under their feet and we can not help ourselves?
16516Is not God against him, for advocating the murderous cause of slavery?
16516Is not Mr. Clay a white man, and too delicate to work in the hot sun?
16516Is there any fitness for such people to be colonized in a far country, to be their own rulers?
16516Let me ask this benevolent man, what he means by a blessing intended for us?
16516Let them answer the Lord; and if they can not do it in the affirmative, have they not departed from the Lord Jesus Christ, their master?
16516May we not hope that America will extinguish a great portion of that moral debt which she has contracted to that unfortunate continent?
16516Now I ask them, would they like for us to hold them and their children in abject slavery and wretchedness?
16516Now I ask those avaricious and ignorant wretches, who act more like the seed of Cain, by murdering, the whites or the blacks?
16516Now I wonder if the world think that I would take the name of God in this way in vain?
16516Now, I ask you had you not rather be killed than to be a slave to a tyrant, who takes the life of your mother, wife, and dear little children?
16516Now, what can be more aggravating, than for the Americans, after having treated us so bad, to hold us up to the world as such great throat cutters?
16516Or do they believe because they are whites and we blacks, that God will have respect to them?
16516Ought they not to be destroyed?
16516Said I, Did your son learn, while he was at school, the width and depth of English Grammar?
16516Said I, what else can your son do, besides writing a good hand?
16516Should the lives of such creatures be spared?
16516So did the king of Egypt doubt the very existence of a God, he said,"who is the Lord, that I should let Israel go?"
16516Some of these, embarrassed by the question,''What further is to be done with them?
16516Their destruction may indeed be procrastinated awhile, but can it continue long while they are oppressing the Lord''s people?
16516They tell us about prejudice-- what have we to do with it?
16516To what length will not man go in iniquity, when given up to a hard heart and reprobate mind, in consequence of blood and oppression?
16516Was he not made by his Creator to sit in the shade, and make the blacks work without remuneration for their services, to support him and his family?
16516Was it the natural_ fine feelings_ of this woman, to save such a wretch alive?
16516Were they ignorant of the principles of Liberty?
16516What business has he or any body else, to be sending letters about the world respecting us?
16516What can the American preachers and people take God to be?--Do they believe his words?
16516What do they think I take God to be?
16516What kind of people can they be?
16516What mind is there that does not shrink from its direful effects?
16516What nation under heaven, will be able to do any thing with us, unless God gives us up into his hand?
16516What right, then, has one of us, to despise another and to treat him cruel, on account of his colour, which none but the God who made it can alter?
16516When the power of Government returned to their hands, did they emancipate the slaves?
16516Where can they get us?
16516Where is the blood of your fathers?
16516Who hinders them?
16516Why did they not make sure of the wretch?
16516Why do they not bring the inhabitants of Asia to be body servants to them?
16516Why do they not get the Aboriginies of this country to be slaves to them and their children, to work their farms and dig their mines?
16516Why do they not take possession of those places?
16516Why hid''st thou now thy face, When dismal times of deep distress Call for thy wonted grace?
16516Why should they send us into a far country to die?
16516Why what is the matter?
16516Will any of us leave our homes and go to Africa?
16516Will he let the oppressors rest comfortably and happy always?
16516Will he not cause the very children of the oppressors to rise up against them, and oftimes put them to death?
16516Will he not publish your secret crimes on the house top?
16516Will he not stop them in their career?
16516Will he not stop them, PREACHERS and all?
16516Will he suffer one part of his creatures to go on oppressing another like brutes always, with impunity?
16516Will it be the case with our brethren the whites of the United States of America?
16516Will it not be dreadful for you?
16516Will it not make their slaves uneasy to see free men of colour enjoying liberty?
16516Will not some white man try to get it from him even if it is in a_ mud hole_?
16516Will not that very remarkable passage of Scripture be fulfilled on Christian Americans?
16516Will not the Lord yet humble them?
16516Will the Lord suffer this people to go on much longer, taking his holy name in vain?
16516Will the Lord suffer this people to proceed much longer?
16516Would they fool with any other people as they do with us?
16516Would they not cease to cut each others throats if they could?
16516Would we not long before this time, have been respectable men, instead of such wretched victims of oppression as we are?
16516Yes, how can our friends but be embarrassed, as Mr. Jefferson says, by the question,"What further is to be done with these people?"
16516You do not look for it, do you?
16516[ 30] Do the whites say, I being a black man, ought to be humble, which I readily admit?
16516[ Here I ask Mr. Clay, what kind of Christianity?
16516[<-Hand] How can the preachers and people of America believe the Bible?
16516_ But they who stay to till the ground must be slaves._ Is there not land enough in America, or''corn enough in Egypt?''
16516are we MEN?
16516are we men who have any spirits at all?
16516or do they think they can measure arms with Jehovah?
16516or will not these very coloured people, whom they now treat worse than brutes, yet under God, humble them low down enough?
16516thou knowest all things-- thou knowest that we make no distinction between thy creatures to whom we have to preach thy Word?

22089Is this the soil whereon they moved?
22089Is true freedom but to break Fetters for our own dear sake, And, with leathern hearts forget That we owe mankind a debt?
22089Is water running in our veins?
22089Is''t not enough that we have borne the sneer of all the world, And bent to those whose haughty lips in scorn of us are curled?
22089Is''t not enough that we must bow to all that they decree,-- These cotton and tobacco lords, these pimps of slavery?
22089Is''t not enough that we must hunt their living chattels back, And cheer the hungry bloodhounds on, that howl upon their track?
22089Lord, break them Slavery powers-- will you go along with me?
22089Ministers of God to men, Heed ye not the nation''s sin?
22089Mother, hast thou ever known The pain of parting ties?
22089Must nature''neath the whip- cord languish?
22089Must not thine anger quickly rise Against the men whom lust controls, Who dare thy righteous laws despise And traffic in the blood of souls?
22089Must their life in sorrow flow?
22089Must we not only half the guilt and all the shame endure, But help to make our tyrant''s throne of flesh and blood secure?
22089My friends, do they not often send, A wish or a thought after me?
22089My vote?
22089O where is our freedom?
22089Of human skulls that shrine was made, Round which the priests of Mexico Before their loathsome idol prayed-- Is Freedom''s altar fashioned so?
22089Oh, think ye that our fathers,( That noble patriot band,) Could now look down with kindling joy, And smile upon the land?
22089Or taste the blessed charities That in the household reign?
22089Or tell me where his form is laid, And let me travel there?
22089Or threats thy Heaven born spirit tame?
22089Or turns the rapid current?
22089Ought I not, then, to be free?
22089PAGE Am I not a Man and Brother?
22089Right established, would you see?
22089Say, O fond Zurima, Where dost thou stay?
22089Say, doth another List to thy sweet lay?
22089Say, doth the orange still Bloom near our cot?
22089Say, would not grief_ thy_ bosom swell?
22089See wives and husbands sold apart, The children''s screams!--it breaks my heart; There''s a better day a coming, will you go along with me?
22089Send up the shout Emancipation-- From heaven let the echoes bound-- Soon will it bless this franchised nation,-- Come raise again the stirring sound?
22089Shall Freedom look to us in vain?
22089Shall Honor bleed?--Shall Truth succumb?
22089Shall I live in lust''s control, To be chattled like a beast, By the Christian church and priest?
22089Shall I then be bought and sold In the mart and by the way, For the white man''s lust and gold?
22089Shall Manhood ever wear the chain?
22089Shall Mercy''s bosom cease to swell?
22089Shall Mercy''s tears no longer flow?
22089Shall every flap of England''s flag Proclaim that all around are free, From"farthest Ind"to each blue crag That beetles o''er the Western Sea?
22089Shall freeman''s sons be taunted, That freedom''s spirit''s fled; That what the fathers vaunted, With sordid sons is dead?
22089Shall freemen lock th''indignant thought?
22089Shall he a slave be bound, Whom God hath doubly crowned Creation''s lord?
22089Shall it be told in story, Or troll''d in burning song, New England''s boasted glory Forgot the bondman''s wrong?
22089Shall liberty be bought and sold By guilty creatures clothed with power?
22089Shall men of Christian name, Without a blush of shame, Profess their tyrant claim From God''s own word?
22089Shall men of whips and blood bear sway?
22089Shall our own brethren drag the chain Which not even Russia''s menials wear?
22089Shall our own glorious land retain That curse which Europe scorns to bear?
22089Shall outraged Nature cease to feel?
22089Shall pen, and press, and soul be dumb?
22089Shall the vile slavites win the day?
22089Shall their grief no ending know?
22089Shall their story mar our glory?
22089Shall tongues be mute, when deeds are wrought Which well might shame extremest Hell?
22089Should some rude ruffian seize and sell The child thou lovest so?
22089Suns bless our harvests fair, With fervid smile serene, But a dark shade is gathering there, What can its blackness mean?
22089That they in grovelling gain Have lost their ancient fire, And''neath the despot''s chain, Let liberty expire?
22089That we must yield our conscience up to glut Oppression''s maw, And break our faith with God to keep the letter of Man''s law?
22089The debt we owe our Father''s graves?
22089The tyrant''s chains are only strong While slaves submit to wear them; And, who could bind them on the strong, Determined not to wear them?
22089The wretch I saw, when last on earth, In human cattle dealing?
22089The yoke, the fasces, and the chain, Say, are these emblems true?
22089Then ask not why"my dismal look,"Nor why my"falling tears,"Such wrongs, what human heart can brook?
22089Then, answer, is the spirit Less noble or less free?
22089This is proud oppression''s hour; Storms are round us; shall we cower?
22089Though I have been made a slave?
22089Three million men in chains, Your friendly aid implore; Slight you the piteous strains That from their bosoms pour?
22089To this none can answer, but echo cries, where?
22089Was ever infant from thee torn And sold before thine eyes?
22089We have a scutcheon bright, By our dead fathers bought; A fearful blot distains its white-- Who hath such evil wrought?
22089We rush to battle-- bear our lot In every ill and danger-- And who shall make the peaceful cot To homely joy a stranger?
22089We toil, we spin, we delve the mine, Sustaining each his neighbor; And who can hold a right divine To rob us of our labor?
22089What Mean Ye?
22089What deploring impedes his soaring?
22089What host from the battle is flying?
22089What mean ye that ye bruise and bind My people, saith the Lord, And starve your craving brother''s mind, Who asks to hear my word?
22089What mean ye that ye make them toil; Through long and dreary years, And shed like rain upon your soil Their blood and bitter tears?
22089What mean ye when God''s bounteous hand, To you so much has given, That from the slave who tills your land, Ye keep both earth and heaven?
22089What mean ye, that ye dare to rend The tender mother''s heart?
22089What moves the mighty torrent, And bids it flow abroad?
22089What, but the voice of God?
22089When at the judgment God shall call, Where is thy brother?
22089Where are the hopes that my heart used to cheer?
22089Where but with thee, whose open door Invites the helpless and the poor?
22089Where human law o''errules Divine, Beneath the sheriff''s hammer fell My wife and babes,--I call them mine,-- And where they suffer, who can tell?
22089Where should I lodge my deep complaint?
22089Where the sweet Joliba kisses the shore, Say, shall I wander by thee never more?
22089Where the sweet Joliba kisses the shore, Say, shall I wander by thee never more?
22089While beneath a despot''s power Groans the suffering slave?
22089While on every southern gale, Comes the helpless captive''s tale, And the voice of woman''s wail, And of man''s despair?
22089While our homes and rights are dear, Guarded still with watchful fear, Shall we coldly turn our ear From the suppliant''s prayer?
22089Who comes in his pride to that low cottage- door-- The haughty and rich to the humble and poor?
22089Who for his country brave, Would fly from her invader?
22089Who his base life to save Would traitor like degrade her?
22089Who tore the infant from the breast, That you might sell its mother?
22089Whose backs soon after felt the blows, More heavy than thy cattle?"
22089Whose craving mind could never rest, Till you had sold a brother?
22089Will ye despise the streamlets Upon the mountain side; Ye broad and mighty rivers, On sweeping to the tide?
22089Will you not then for me pray, To the God whose power can save, High and low, and bond and free?
22089Will you, sisters, tell me nay?
22089Wilt thou despise the crescent, That trembles, newly born, Thou bright and peerless planet, Whose reign shall reach the morn?
22089Yoke in with marked and branded slaves, And tremble at the driver''s whip?
22089Zurima, Zurima, Am I forgot?
22089[ Music] Am I not a man and brother?
22089[ Music] Is this the land our fathers loved, The freedom which they toiled to win?
22089[ Music] Our Pilgrim Fathers-- where are they?
22089[ Music] See these poor souls from Africa, Transported to America; We are stolen, and sold to Georgia, will you go along with me?
22089[ Music] What means that sad and dismal look, And why those falling tears?
22089[ Music] Why did ye wake me from my sleep?
22089[ Music] Will ye despise the acorn, Just thrusting out its shoot, Ye giants of the forest, That strike the deepest root?
22089_ Thy_ tears like rivers flow?
22089and shall we calmly rest, The Christian''s scorn-- the Heathen''s mirth-- Content to live the lingering jest And by- word of a mocking Earth?
22089and to the yet unborn, Whose heritage ourselves must make a thing of pride or scorn?
22089are ye fit to be Mothers of the brave and free?
22089can man e''er bind thee?
22089equality where?
22089gone, sold and gone 5 Get off the Track 144 Heard ye that Cry?
22089how long?
22089reflect; are_ all_ thus blest?
22089say, What mean ye to the Judge of all To answer on that day?
22089shall their agony of prayer Come thrilling to our hearts in vain?
22089the fiend demands,"What makes you look so frantic?
22089when Slavery''ll cease, Then we poor souls can have our peace; There''s a better day a coming, will you go along with me?
22089when shall it be, That we poor souls shall all be free?
22089whose boast it is that ye Come of fathers brave and free; If there breathe on earth a slave, Are ye truly free and brave?
22089why do n''t you repent?
22089why slumber ye on?
22089will right Triumph o''er wrong?
22089will you send me back?
22089will you send me back?
22089will you send me back?
22089will you send me back?
36055Will the star of empire become stationary at New- York? 36055 Would the Gospel allow us, if it were in our power, to reduce our fellow- citizens of our own color to slavery?
36055$ 2,333,535,520 What is the import of these figures?
36055A system which sanctions the sale of the child by its own father, regardless of the purpose of the buyer?
36055Add up the two columns of figures above, and what is the result?
36055Am I not also the thief?
36055And now let us ask, and we would put the question particularly to Southern merchants, what do we so much need as a great Southern metropolis?
36055And shall I not have to pay the damage for detaining that child in my service as a slave?
36055And why are they so determined?
36055And why must something be done?
36055And why?
36055And, now, pray let us ask, what does this narrative teach?
36055Are both in favor of the North?
36055Are these the chosen architects who are expected to build up"a purely Southern literature?"
36055Are they not destined to occupy an inferior rank among the nations of the earth?
36055Are we a flock without a shepherd?
36055Are we not dependent on New- York, Philadelphia, Boston, and Cincinnati, for nearly every article of merchandise, whether foreign or domestic?
36055But are slavery and war to_ endure_ for ever because we find them in the Bible?
36055But do Southern merchants stay at home?
36055But does it alter the case whether I agree before hand or not, to pay him for the child?
36055But how about Cotton?
36055But how about cotton?
36055But of what avail is all this latent wealth?
36055But were they permitted such an expression?
36055But what are these, that they should seal a minister''s lips-- what more are the wishes of politicians?"
36055But what is kidnapping?
36055But why did she not maintain her supremacy?
36055Can it be possible that the slavocracy will ever have the hardihood to open their mouths again on the subject of terra- culture in the South?
36055Compare the progress of these States, and then say, what is it but Free Labor that has advanced Ohio?
36055Dare they ever think of cotton again?
36055Do the masts of her ships ever cast a shadow on foreign waters?
36055Do they build up Southern commerce?
36055Do we ever think of these countries or States without thinking of their cities also?
36055Do you ask what we have to do with slavery?
36055Do you aspire to become the victims of white non- slaveholding vengeance by day, and of barbarous massacre by the negroes at night?
36055Do you offer us your negroes in part payment?
36055Does slavery exist in any part of civilized Europe?
36055For the last sixty- eight years, slaveholders have been the sole and constant representatives of the South, and what have they accomplished?
36055From whose hands did this man receive fifty thousand dollars-- improperly, if not illegally, taken from the public funds in Washington?
36055Has anybody ever heard of her?
36055Has it been suppressed by the oligarchy?
36055Has not the mechanic, have not the middle classes their rights-- rights incompatible with the existence of slavery?
36055Has she imitated the praiseworthy example of our illustrious ancestors?
36055Has the past, with all its glittering monuments of genius and patriotism, furnished no beacon by which we may direct our footsteps in the future?
36055Has the slave no rights, because he is deprived of his freedom?
36055Hereby we make application for a lease of freedom for ten years; shall we have it?
36055How do you propose to settle?
36055How has it been with the South?
36055How much of_ that_ is to be found in the region of Slavery?
36055If a man is injuring_ us_, do we ever doubt as to the time when_ he_ ought to cease?
36055If it be asked when, I ask again, when shall a man begin to cease doing wrong?
36055If we want to learn the news of the country, do we not go to the city, or to the city papers?
36055In this respect to what is our poverty ascribable?
36055In what degree of latitude-- pray tell us-- in what degree of latitude do the rays of the sun become too calorific for white men?
36055Is either in favor of the South?
36055Is it necessary to adduce other facts in order to prove that the rural wealth of the free States is far greater than that of the slave States?
36055Is it not almost entirely tributary to the commerce of the North?
36055Is it not my act as fully as his?
36055Is it your purpose to make the game perpetual?
36055Is not the answer,_ immediately_?
36055Is the sum of one hundred and sixteen millions of dollars more desirable than the sum of eleven hundred millions of dollars?
36055Is this sufficiently explicit and categorical?
36055Is this to act like wise men?
36055It is just; shall payment be demanded?
36055It remains for us now to enquire, WHAT HAS PRODUCED THIS LITERARY PAUPERISM OF THE SOUTH?
36055MILTON asks:--"Where is the beauty to see, Like the sun- brilliant brow of a nation when free?"
36055MONTESQUIEU asks:--"What civil law can restrain a slave from running away, since he is not a member of society?"
36055Must the country languish, droop, die, that the slaveholder may flourish?
36055Now, if these people were so much in love with the''institution,''why did they not remain where they could enjoy its blessings?
36055Now, when Paul said the law was made for men- stealers, was it not also saying the law was made for slaveholders?
36055Of what avail will it ever be, so long as slavery is permitted to play the dog in the manger?
36055Oh, my country, my country, whither art thou tending?
36055Or, if they were to throw a pound of strychnine into a public spring, would that be none of our business?
36055Or, to come nearer home, what would Maryland be without Baltimore?
36055Shall all interests be subservient to one-- all rights subordinate to those of the slaveholder?
36055Shall ignorance, or prejudice, or obduracy, or willful meanness, triumph over knowledge, and liberality, and guilelessness, and laudable enterprise?
36055Shall we fee the curs of slavery in order to make them rich at our expense?
36055Shall we pat the bloodhounds of slavery for the sake of doing them a favor?
36055Shall we pay the whelps of slavery for the privilege of converting them into decent, honest, upright men?
36055She gave that territory away, and what is the result?
36055Sir, being thus injurious, have we not a right to demand its extermination?
36055Suppose we estimate five hundred acres as the average landed property of each slaveholder; will that be fair?
36055The questions now arise, How can the evil be averted?
36055Then we are an abolitionist?
36055Thomas Marshall, of Fauquier, said, in the Virginia Legislature, in 1832:--"Wherefore, then, object to slavery?
36055To what is this change ascribable?
36055To what, Sir, is all this ascribable?
36055Upon whom will you depend for an equitable and judicious form of constitutional government?
36055What about Southern Commerce?
36055What are the most prudent and practical means that can be devised for the abolition of slavery?
36055What are the opinions, generally, of the non- slaveholding whites?
36055What are you going to do about it?
36055What changes worthy of note have taken place in the physical features of her superficies since"the evening and the morning were the third day?"
36055What is his mere pecuniary claim, compared with the great interests of the common weal?
36055What is our faith?
36055What is the actual condition of Literature at the South?
36055What is the testimony of reliable Southrons themselves?
36055What is to be done?
36055What more can we do?
36055What more can we say?
36055What need is there to present to you the unmitigated wrong of slavery?
36055What next?
36055What potent influence hushed its clarion voice, just as it began to be lifted in behalf of a liberal policy and an enlightened humanity?
36055What says one of Virginia''s own sons?
36055What shall be done with this amount?
36055What wonder is it that there is no native literature in the South?
36055What would England be without London?
36055What would France be without Paris?
36055What would Louisiana be without New Orleans?
36055What would South Carolina be without Charleston?
36055What would Turkey be without Constantinople?
36055When a man has land for sale, does he reject thirty- six dollars per acre and take three?
36055When did he receive it?--and for what purpose?--and who was the arch- demagogue through whose agency the transfer was made?
36055When will Southern authors understand their own interests?
36055Where are our ships, our mariners, our naval architects?
36055Where do we stand?
36055Where is fanaticism now, North or South?
36055Where is that address?
36055Where is the record of that law?
36055Who that watches passing events and indications, is not sensible of the fact that great internal convulsions await the slave States?
36055Who voted_ for_ this resolution?
36055Whom will you designate as models for your future statesmen?
36055Why did not the_ Enquirer_ continue to preach it?
36055Why not decide it at the next general election?
36055Why should I thus be deprived of sleep that the slaveholder may slumber?
36055Why, then, do you still clamor for more?
36055Will any_ respectable_ man enter a protest against it?
36055Will it avail me to say I purchased him and paid my money for him?
36055Will it not be asked, Do you not know that a white person is not merchantable?
36055Will it not be cheerfully indorsed by many of the slaveholders themselves?
36055Will its supremacy be permanent?
36055Will not the non- slaveholders of the North, of the South, of the East, and of the West, heartily, unanimously sanction this proposition?
36055Will you aid us, will you assist us, will you be freemen, or will you be slaves?
36055Will you not abolish it?
36055Will you support by your vote a system that recognizes property of man in man?
36055Would any one believe that I am master of slaves of my own purchase?
36055Would the slaveholders of North Carolina lose anything by the abolition of slavery?
36055Would we not be correct in calling it a total eclipse of the Black Orb?
36055Would you be instrumental in bringing upon yourselves, your wives, and your children, a fate too horrible to contemplate?
36055Yet, Sir, I must ask upon whom is to fall the burden of this defence?
36055a nation without a government?
36055a people without a prophet?
36055and to what, except slavery, can we attribute the non- progression of the Old Dominion?"
36055and who voted_ against_ it?
36055are you ready to settle the account?
36055echo answers, where?
36055or are they to_ cease_ at once and for ever because the Bible inculcates peace and brotherhood?"
36055or will it, like its predecessors, be eclipsed by western rivals?
36055shall society suffer, that the slaveholder may continue to gather his_ crop_ of human flesh?
36055that they are not to be violated but with his wrath?
36055would you understand how abjectly slaveholders themselves are enslaved to the products of Northern industry?
44736A sober man who can find?
44736Am I told that by these remarks I extenuate slavery?
44736Among these partakers of the same rational and moral nature, who can make good a right over others, which others may not establish over himself?
44736And can he, who has scattered other families, ask God to bless his own?
44736And can men, whose position is so unfavorable to just, impartial judgment, expect us to acquiesce in their views?
44736And has he weighed the responsibility of such a transfer?
44736And if this impression be a delusion, on what single moral conviction can we rely?
44736And may not a vast amount of suffering be inflicted, which will not put in peril the life or strength of the slave?
44736And shall God''s child, dearer to him than an only son to a human parent, be thus degraded?
44736And that this is to bear sway over all private and public acts?
44736And to what does this apology amount?
44736And to whom is it delegated?
44736And what is the design?
44736And what is the general, the perpetual teaching of Christianity in regard to social duty?
44736And what stronger argument against slavery can be conceived?
44736And why can not the former be understood to be incomparably the most important element of the public weal?
44736And why not needed?
44736Are God''s laws to be repealed by man''s?
44736Are all such trusts to be cast away?
44736Are not all restraints on the individual just, which this demands?
44736Are such men to be set down among the unprincipled?
44736Are such the separations which slavery makes?
44736Are they not the greatest gifts of Heaven?
44736Are we all willing to receive new light?
44736Because Ireland is suffering from the misgovernment and oppression of ages, does it follow that a less grinding oppression is a good?
44736Because the first Christians were taught to obey despotic rule, did our fathers feel as if Christianity had stript men of their rights?
44736Besides, are not the wrongs of Ireland acknowledged?
44736But because the North joins hands with the South, shall iniquity go unpunished or unrebuked?
44736But can it be supposed that they will suffer their citizens to be stolen, exposed to violence, and murdered, by other States?
44736But does not policy, as well as principle, require such men steadily to discountenance them?
44736But suppose that we wished to learn the true character of despotism; should we go to the palace and take the despot as our teacher?
44736But who of us can look into his heart?
44736But would we cease to be human, because our capacity for suffering increases with the elevation of our nature?
44736Can a year or a month pass, which will not afford equally grave reasons for insurrections of the populace?
44736Can government do no wrong?
44736Can he always still the reproving, avenging voice in his own breast?
44736Can he crush the awful spirit of justice and retribution in the Almighty?
44736Can he disarm that slave''s Creator?
44736Can he pretend, then, that in holding others in bondage he does to his neighbour what he would that his neighbour should do to him?
44736Can he silence that voice which speaks in thunder, and is to break the sleep of the grave?
44736Can it be a hard task to teach him to labor for himself, to work from impulses in his own breast?
44736Can men, having human feeling, grow rich by the desolation of families?
44736Can that very use, which makes the original seizure an enormous wrong, become gradually innocent?
44736Can the league of the wicked, the revolt of worlds, repeal the everlasting law of heaven and earth?
44736Can the slaveholder use the word"amalgamation"without a blush?
44736Can this mixture go on faster or more criminally than at the present moment?
44736Can this objection be urged in good faith?
44736Can we doubt which of them ought to fall?
44736Can we wonder that the uneducated conscience of the man who is daily wronged should allow him in reprisals to the extent of his power?
44736Did God make such a being to be owned as a tree or a brute?
44736Did our fathers acquiesce in the most obvious interpretation of this text?
44736Did they argue that absolute power ceases to be unjust, because, as a general rule, it is the duty of subjects to obey?
44736Did they argue that tyranny was to be excused, because forcible opposition to it is in most cases wrong?
44736Do men, under the light of the present day, need to be told, that enthusiasm is not a flame to be quenched with blood?
44736Do they not, indeed, cease to be rights?
44736Do we not all feel, that there are higher goods than even the safety of the state?
44736Do we not feel, that, in the same condition, a sense of duty would quicken our flying steps?
44736Do we not repel indignantly and with horror the thought of being reduced to the condition of tools and chattels to a fellow- creature?
44736Does any man, so questioned, doubt, waver, look about him for an answer?
44736Does he insist on superior strength of body or mind?
44736Does not an unhesitating, unerring conviction spring up in my breast, that no other man can acquire such a right in myself?
44736Does regard to private interest save from brutal treatment the draught- horse in our streets?
44736Does the duration of wrong, the increase of it by continuance, convert it into right?
44736For what is it that lightens toil?
44736For what would this show?
44736Had not the President received letters threatening his life unless he would change his measures?
44736Has God''s throne fallen before Mammon''s?
44736Has he a religious nature, and dares any one hold him as a slave?
44736Has nature conferred distinctions which tell us plainly, who shall be owner?
44736Have we yet to learn that"it profits us nothing to gain the whole world, and lose our souls?"
44736He can not comprehend them; or, if he does, how can he respect them, seeing them, as he does, perpetually trampled on in his own person?
44736How can he respect himself?
44736How much does the progress of civilization consist in the substitution of just and humane, for barbarous and oppressive laws?
44736How wearisome is the task imposed by another, and wrongfully imposed?
44736I may be asked, whether, in the history of nations, circumstances do not occur, in which the rigor of the principles, now laid down, must be relaxed?
44736If one may assert it, why not all?
44736If the slave receive injury without measure at the first moment of the outrage, is he less injured by being held fast the second or the third?
44736Is it consistent with the right of property, that a man should determine the equivalent for what he takes from his neighbour?
44736Is it his aim to awaken the powers of those on whom he lays his burdens, and to give them increasing mastery over himself?
44736Is it not his aim to curb their will, break their spirits, and shut them up for ever in the same narrow and degrading work?
44736Is not British legislation laboring to restore her prosperity?
44736Is not the reply given immediately, intuitively, by his whole inward being?
44736Is slavery, therefore, no wrong?
44736Is slavery, which tends so proverbially to debase the mind, the preparation for spiritual truth?
44736Is the General Good, then, the supreme law to which every thing must bow?
44736Is the slave thus morally bound?
44736Is the slave under a moral obligation to confine himself, his wife, and children, to a spot where their union in a moment may be forcibly dissolved?
44736Is there any moral truth more deeply rooted in us, than that such a degradation would be an infinite wrong?
44736Is this a reason for holding him in chains?
44736Is this end reconcilable with his being held and used as a chattel?
44736Is this one and the same thing with the whip laid on the slave?
44736Is this the invitation which the master gives his slaves?
44736Is this to reconcile us to slavery?
44736Let this claim begin, and where will it stop?
44736May he not be true to his convictions of duty in other relations, though he grievously err in this?
44736Might we not more truly say, that he has put the parent into the child''s power?
44736Must duty find no voice, no organ, because corruption is universally diffused?
44736Must not every thing give place to the General Good?"
44736Must the Public Good prevail over purity and our holiest affections?
44736Now does not every man feel that nothing, nothing, could induce him to consent to be a slave?
44736Now, do we not instantly feel, can we help feeling, that this is false?
44736Of what avail is their testimony in favor of slavery, when not a tongue is allowed to say a word in its condemnation?
44736Of what use is the press, when it can publish only on one side?
44736Ought he not, if he can, to place himself and his family under the guardianship of equal laws?
44736Ought not, then, the same condemnation to light on the continuance of his yoke?
44736Shall we sink man below the horse?
44736Should we blame him for leaving his yoke?
44736Should we not deem it a wrong which no punishment could expiate, were one of our children seized as property, and driven by the whip to toil?
44736Should we not think ourselves robbed?
44736Still the question will be asked,"Is not the General Good the supreme law of the state?
44736That its difficulties would yield before such energies, who can doubt?
44736That the idea of Rectitude is deeper in human nature than that of private or public interest?
44736That there is a higher law than that of mightiest empires?
44736The Spirit we can not kill, but we can bury it in deathlike lethargy; and is this a light crime in the sight of its Maker?
44736The slave can not easily be made to do a freeman''s work; and why?
44736They probably were useful then; and why?
44736To Christians, trained to purity and love?
44736To men having a deep interest in the slaves?
44736To men prepared to govern others, by having learned to govern themselves?
44736To whom are the secret workings there revealed?
44736To wise men, instructed in human nature?
44736Was not assassination attempted?
44736Were not some of them among the best of their times?
44736Were their members, therefore, monsters of depravity?
44736Were they, therefore, the offscouring of the earth?
44736What aid does the future give him in withstanding desire?
44736What heart, not seared by custom, would not recoil from such barbarity?
44736What is the history of human governments but a record of wrongs?
44736What limit is to be set?
44736What outrage so great as to enter a man''s house, and tear from his side the beings whom God has bound to him by the holiest ties?
44736What was slavery in the age of Paul?
44736What, then, is the consequence of holding a human being as property?
44736What, then, is to be done for the removal of slavery?
44736When the rights of the individual clash with this, must they not yield?
44736Whence is it that length of possession is considered by the laws as conferring a right?
44736Where, then, is the obligation which would necessarily be imposed, if the right existed which the master claims?
44736Whether, in seasons of imminent peril to the state, private rights must not give way?
44736While his wife and children may be exposed at auction, and carried, he knows not where, can he be expected to feel and act as a husband and father?
44736Who can doubt that to such a spirit God would reveal the means of wise and powerful action?
44736Who does not know, how often the overseer pollutes the plantation by his licentiousness, as well as scourges it by his severity?
44736Who does not know, that the office of Overseer is among the last, which an enlightened, philanthropic, self- respecting man would choose?
44736Who of us can unblushingly lift his head and say that God has written"Master"there?
44736Who seems to be settling for himself the great fundamental truths, by which private efforts and public measures are to be determined?
44736Who that has watched his own heart, or observed others, does not feel that man is not fit to be trusted with absolute, irresponsible power over men?
44736Who, that comprehends these gifts, does not see that the diversities of the race vanish before them?
44736Why can it not be made to comprehend inward and moral, as well as outward good?
44736Why can it not be used in a larger sense?
44736Why canonize the martyr to freedom?
44736Why follow with beating hearts the struggles of the patriot for freedom?
44736Why has God given foresight and power over the future, but to be used?
44736Why may not Scripture be used to stock our houses with wives as well as with slaves?
44736Why were the Romans accustomed to work their slaves in chains by day, and confine them in dungeons by night?
44736Why, then, contend for Rights?
44736Will it not be taught to make him obedient to his master, rather than to raise him to the dignity of a man?
44736Would he not have been bound to seize the precious opportunity of escape?
44736Would it not identify the abolitionists with our most sacred rights?
44736Would not he, who should receive such an article from a robber or a succession of robbers, be involved in their guilt?
44736Would not such an outrage rouse them to feel and act as one man?
44736Would not the laws pronounce the invader a robber?
44736Would their right to follow conscience and God be annulled?
44736Would they be bound to sin?
44736Would they not have had a better pretext than mobs against abolition?
44736Yet who seems to be awake to the solemnity of the present moment?
44736and who be owned?
44736is human legislation the measure of right?
44736or who can show the word"Slave"engraven on his brother''s brow?
44736why not all?
4958''Who''s here to- night?'' 4958 ''You''ll give a sailor a hearin'', wo n''t ye?''
4958An''whereabutes did ye pick the woman up,--an, an, wha''s teu stond the bill?
4958And am I to suffer because public opinion honors him, and gives him power to disgrace me? 4958 And did you find the woman- and was she one of them?"
4958And have you found this man?
4958And now, young man, what mission have you besides love?
4958And will you believe me innocent? 4958 And you have no home, my man?"
4958Are these heaps of human beings?
4958But pray what came of the young Baronet?
4958But!--I say, mister, this skull could n''t a bin old Yorick''s, you know--"Yorick''s!--why not?
4958But, father, was there not to you something strange, something mysterious about the manner she pursued her search for this old dress? 4958 Can she have thought of me so much as to love me?"
4958Can this be my child? 4958 Cribs are necessary, sir- I suppose you never looked into one before?"
4958Did it come from the dress I discovered in the old chest?
4958Did not your passport protect you?
4958Got her a bit below, at the Work''ouse door, among them wot sleeps there, eh?
4958He was sincere to me, and my only true friend-- am I the cause of this?
4958He''s a bit better, sir- isn''t he?
4958I ax your pardon, Mam, but may I look in this''ere bed?
4958I have ordered a carriage, and will send you to your home- where is it?
4958I say!--my old hero, has she been here yet?
4958I think you said two bottles, gentlemen? 4958 I''m all square, ai n''t I?"
4958If she deys in my''ouse, good sir, w''oat then?
4958Is it Mrs. Slocum hersel''ye''d be seein''?
4958Lost yeer reckonin'', eh, Tom?
4958Mayor''s election comes off two weeks from Friday- couldn''t do without me- can knock down any quantity of men- you throw a plumper, I take it?
4958Mr. Hardscrabble? 4958 Must it be?"
4958Not that I am at large?
4958Rather, I might ask,she responds, in a faltering voice,"am I worthy of this forgiveness, this confidence, this pledge of eternal happiness?"
4958WHAT could the woman mean, when on taking leave of me she said,''you are far richer than me?''
4958Was it Munday?
4958Well, now Tom, seein''as how I''m a friend of yourn--"Friend of mine?
4958What has got out?
4958What of a citizen are you?
4958What think you of my statuary?
4958What''s here to do?
4958Whiskey, Tom,he says,--"no use offering it to parsons, eh?
4958Who better able to wield it in this chivalrous atmosphere? 4958 Who is he seeking to accommodate to- night?"
4958Who is it?
4958Who lives here?
4958Who''s here?
4958Why, and who is it, that seeks me in this mysterious manner?
4958Why,says Tom,"should I consult the dignity of a mother who discards me?
4958Will flock together, eh?
4958Will poverty never cease torturing me? 4958 Will you not hear me?
4958Worse, Madam?
4958You do n''t know my friend, here?
4958You have had a hearing before the Grand Jury, have you not?
4958You have not been long off the Island, Washington?
4958You have some important news?
4958You have something of importance,--something to relieve my mind?
4958You make a good thing of it?
4958You mean the expense?
4958You took a drop with him this afternoon?
4958You''ll make a right good thing of this!--a clear thousand, eh?
4958Your name, if you please?
4958''Do you take Spunyarn for a marine?''
4958''Graves,''says I,''where do they bury these unfortunate women who die off so, here in Charleston?''
4958''Law and justice,''says I, shaking my fist at him-''do ye take this salt- water citizen for a fool?''
4958''Mister,''says I,''do ye want to poison a sailor?''
4958''The Lord forgive me,''she says,''I know I''m guilty- but I''ve been punished enough in this world have n''t I?''
4958''What is there, my good woman?''
4958''You wo n''t whisper it, Mrs. Murphy,''says she,''if I''d tell ye in confidence by what manes I got the lift?''"
4958''You wo n''t whisper it?''
4958''Your name was n''t always Munday?''
4958A high old blade to administer justice, eh?"
4958After all( she tosses her head) what can there be in beadles and liveries?
4958All right old boy, eh?"
4958Am I an orphan, as has been told me; or have I parents yet living, affluent, and high in society?
4958Am I not contaminated by associations?
4958Am I not living under the very roof that will confirm the slanders of mine enemies?
4958And what do you want?
4958And yet how foolish of me to give way to my feelings?
4958And you parted with the child?"
4958Better put our female friends on their guard, eh?"
4958Bless you( the hostess evinces the enthusiasm of a politician), what better evidence of the reputation of my house than is before you, do you want?
4958But we pride ourselves that we are a respectable people- what more would you have us?
4958But what use is it discussing the affairs of State with a thing like you?"
4958But why, he says to himself, does Mr. Snivel evince this anxiety to befriend me?
4958But you wo n''t think I''m so bad as I seem, and''ll forgive me?
4958Call you this murder?
4958Can he rob me of the one I love- of the one in whose welfare my whole soul is staked, and do it with impunity?"
4958Can it be that mortals are confined here, and live?"
4958Can it be that so graphically described by Brother Syngleton Spyke?
4958Can there be another face so lovely?
4958Could he have stood up against the chivalry of South Carolina, scoffed at the law, or bid good- natured justice close her eyes?
4958Did she really cherish a passion for him?
4958Do they seek me and can not find me?
4958Do you ask my name?
4958Do you ask us who was the betrayer, reader?
4958Do you live in South Carolina?"
4958Do you take?
4958Does it not present the accessories to wrong doing?
4958Donahue?"
4958First, his wife was got away from him--"Tom pauses and blushes, as Madame Montford says:"His wife was got away from him?"
4958For has he not first distressed a family, and then left it bereft of its protector?
4958Found sleeping in the market, eh?
4958Funny things, eh?
4958God!--how terrible- what, what am I to do?"
4958Had he reached a stage of degradation so low that even the felon loathed his presence?
4958Hardscrabble?"
4958Has not society sought to clothe me with shame?
4958Has this crime that so like a demon haunts me- that curses me even in my dreams, driven her, perhaps against her will, to seek this life of shame?"
4958Have I not taste enough for a princess?"
4958Have you not some revelation to make respecting my parents?"
4958Having paid the authorities ten dollars, and honored every Alderman with a complimentary ticket, who has a better right?
4958Having the people''s money to waste, its own ambition to serve, and its hat to fill with political waste paper- what more would you ask of it?
4958How can she acquit her conscience of having deliberately and faithlessly renounced one who was so true to her?
4958How could she, orphan as she was called, and unencouraged, come to be a noble and generous- hearted woman?
4958How could they hear of it?
4958How is it with the Judge- that high functionary who provides thus sumptuously for his mistress?
4958How would an alliance with Maria affect his mother''s dignity?
4958I am a mother who has wronged her child- I have no peace of mind- my heart is lacerated--""Are you, then, my mother?"
4958I ask forgiveness of Him who only can forgive the wicked; but how can I expect to gain it?"
4958I ca n''t get out; and if I ca n''t get out, what''s the use of my trying to improve?
4958I parted with her- yes, yes, I parted with her to Mother Bridges, who kept a stand at a corner in West street--""And then what became of her?"
4958I says,''You was trusted with a child once, was n''t you?''
4958I wonder if Mr. Crown''ll sell bad gin to his highness when he gets him?"
4958In loudest accent rings the question--"Do you go to Madame Flamingo''s to- night?"
4958Is it you?"
4958Is not the Allwise, through the beauties of His works, holding her up, while man only is struggling to pull her down?
4958It''s worth an hundred or more, eh?"
4958May I ask if you have not mistaken your way?"
4958Mr. Hardscrabble?
4958Mrs. Swiggs looks querulously through her spectacles and says,"Do tell me where I am?"
4958Mrs. Swiggs, with a sigh, says,"Is that all?"
4958Shall I advance, or retreat to more congenial quarters?
4958Shall I be forgiven?"
4958Shall she flee back to the prison?
4958Shall she go cast herself at the mercy of the keeper?
4958She is a curious mother; but when I think how he looks and acts, how can I wonder she keeps him in jail?
4958That mute appeal, that melancholy voucher of his sorrows, knells the painful answer in her ears,"Then you are not free to come with me?
4958The State''ll starve you, old Hardscrabble''ll make a few dollars out of your feed- but what of that?
4958The old Judge, eh?"
4958The same was brought in, and Mary hersel''was soon like a dead woman oh the floor, jist--""And they got the money all away?"
4958The transaction was purely commercial: why should humanity interpose?
4958Then you have read of Sir Sunderland Swiggs, my ancestor?
4958They have not robbed you?"
4958Tom,"exclaims George, as he enters the cell,"boarding at the expense of the State yet, eh?"
4958Turning to McArthur, he adds, rather unconcernedly:"You know somewhat of him?"
4958Upon whom does the responsibility of this terrible closing rest?
4958Was he an outcast, stripped of every means of reform- of making himself a man?
4958Was this sufficient- all the law demanded?
4958We knew each other as children, and what else but respect could I have for you?
4958Well, I had made a man of him- I do n''t regret it, for I always liked him- and this is the end of the poor fellow, eh?"
4958What am I to do?
4958What is the liberty of a poor white with us?
4958What more would you ask of it?
4958What more would you have?"
4958What say the jury of inquest?
4958Who can this mysterious messenger, this beautiful stranger be?
4958Why not, good gentleman,( he seized me by the arm as he said this,) inquire of Milman Mingle, the vote- cribber?
4958Will he not save from death her starving child?
4958Will you hear my story, and reject the calumny of those who have sought my ruin?"
4958Will you never cease polluting the habitations of the poor?
4958William!--has it come to this?"
4958Would not America imitate Rome, that mighty mother of Republics?
4958Yes, I must lock you up, and sell you out- unless you redeem before sale day; that you ca n''t do, I suppose?"
4958You can make names?
4958You have been a fashionable traveller in Europe?
4958You have brought letters, I s''pose?"
4958You have had your day- why let such nonsense trouble you?
4958You have seen how I can develop both these, eh?"
4958You said, you know, it was all up with it--""Up?
4958You''ve a vote?"
4958Your highnesses visited Charleston, of course?"
4958am I worthy of retaining this hand for life?"
4958eh?
4958exclaims the poor outcast, starting to his feet,"my release?"
4958had her solicitude in years past something more than friendship in it?
4958has it come to this?"
4958he questions within himself,"must I stain these hands with the blood of the woman I love?
4958he says, while looking out from his cell upon the bright landscape without,"what is death to me?
4958inquired the old hostess,"and my antiques?
4958interposes Keepum,"what airs these sort of people put on, eh?
4958interrupts Mr. Snivel, inquiringly,"you do n''t mean to say it was all the doings of a parson?"
4958my father, my father!--released?
4958released?"
4958says Mr. Glentworthy, for such is the wretched woman''s name,"can not you sing a song for your friends?"
4958to Black- beetle''s Hole--""And where is this curious place?"
4958villain!--what brings you here?
4958what did she mean?
4958who are you?
4958who''s here?''
4958will you not allow an innocent woman to speak in her own behalf?
15698Art thou called being a servant? 15698 By whom begot?"
15698Can it be possible,( said we to ourselves),"that there are human beings living, who have been guilty of more abominable crimes?"
15698Can the Ethiopian change his skin?
15698He that hath of this worlds goods, and seeth his brother have need, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
15698Massa must die, and must he die unprepared? 15698 Show me the company you keep, and I will tell you who you are,"Are there no laws to protect slaves?
15698We know that we are vile and depraved, but are not those slaveholders, a little worse than we are?
15698What could be more detestable?
15698What could render a human being more obnoxious to eternal vengeance?
15698What is more odious?
15698Where is it,( said we),"that the Bible denounces these slaveholders, as the chief of sinners?"
15698Which side of the question is it on?
15698A Southerner is more likely to inquire, is it honorable or dishonorable, than is it morally right or wrong?
15698A gentleman called on business, and observing the books, inquired what kind of books they were?
15698And Governor Randolph informs us,"That the Southern States conceived their property in slaves to be secured by this arrangement?"
15698And did you see brother Paul, exclaimed Philemon?
15698And he said, Hagar, Sarai''s maid, whence comest thou?
15698And is dear brother Paul well?
15698And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren?
15698And what are they doing for the suffering poor of their own color?
15698And what is it that recommends them, or enhances their value in market?
15698And what said Dr. Durbin a few years ago of the British nation?
15698And what says Allison the English historian of wretched Ireland?
15698And what was the result?
15698And where are our own immortal poets and prose writers?
15698And ye apostles of modern reform, from whence did ye derive your authority to speak evil of rulers?
15698And ye dukes and lords, ye pinks of mortality, professing to be Christians, have ye forgotten the words of Divine inspiration?
15698Are they ever ready to relieve the poor, the needy and distressed?
15698Are they husbands to the widows; and fathers to the fatherless?
15698Ask him if all is right; if all is well within you?
15698But if he is at a loss as to what are his obligations to the orphan, let him ask himself what are his obligations to a son or a daughter?
15698But they are gone, and shall we now confide the interests of this great nation, to the keeping of a few sickly sentimentalists?
15698But what has now become of the institution of slavery in the South?
15698By what agency?
15698By what means can slavery be abolished in the United States?
15698By what means can slavery be abolished?
15698By what means or agency?
15698By what means were the posterity of Shem and Japheth enabled to enslave the posterity of Ham?
15698Can moral obligation, a sense of duty, the dictates of conscience, overcome that instinctive passion of the human soul, the love of gain?
15698Dangers of agitation, Is there no remedy?
15698Did St. Paul conceal him, or did he advise him to flee still farther from his master, in order to elude pursuit and apprehension?
15698Do they feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and visit the sick?
15698Does it commend itself to your judgment?
15698From whence did it spring?
15698Has the agitation and discussion of the question of African slavery, in the free States, resulted in any good, or is it ever likely to result in any?
15698Have they ever read Paul''s letter to Timothy?
15698Have we ever counted the cost?
15698He gets all their labor, and what do they receive in return?
15698He had scarcely seated himself, before he inquired,"What book are you reading, Sir?"
15698How dare they professing Christianity to fly in the face of the laws of their country?
15698How dare they resist the execution of those laws?
15698How dares Mrs. Stowe inculcate disobedience and open resistance to her country''s laws?
15698How does he do?
15698How does it happen that the African population are so little benefitted or influenced by them?
15698How is it that one nation acquires dominion over another?
15698How many widows that they have defrauded, and orphans they have robbed, will confront them at the bar of God?
15698How, my dear, says the good lady; by dressing our daughters in silks, and our sons in broadcloth?

9915What was the conduct of Shiphrah and Puah, when the king of Egypt issued his cruel mandate, with regard to the Hebrew children?
9915When the ruler of the Jews"_ commanded them not_ to speak at all, nor teach in the name of Jesus,"what did they say?
9915Where then I ask, will the name of George Thompson stand on the page of History?
9915Where, then, I would ask, is the warrant, the justification, or the palliation of American Slavery from Hebrew servitude?
9915Who ever heard of a rebellion of the beasts of the field; and why not?
9915Who first proclaimed Christ as the true Messiah in the streets of Samaria, once the capital of the ten tribes?
9915Who followed the rejected King of Israel, as his fainting footsteps trod the road to Calvary?
9915Who labored assiduously to keep the sufferings of the slave continually before the British public?
9915Who ministered to the Son of God whilst on earth, a despised and persecuted Reformer, in the humble garb of a carpenter?
9915Who went up with Barak to Kadesh to fight against Jabin, King of Canaan, into whose hand Israel had been sold because of their iniquities?
9915Who wrote that pamphlet which moved the heart of Wilberforce to pray over the wrongs, and his tongue to plead the cause of the oppressed African?
9915Whose blood stains the green sward, and decks the wild flowers with colors not their own, and smokes on the sword of persecuting France?
9915Why more than the_ professors of religion_ who barter their fellow- professors to them for gold and silver?
9915Why then, I would ask, do they lend you their help?
9915Why were Luther and Calvin persecuted and excommunicated, Cranmer, Ridley, and Latimer burnt?
9915Why were the Apostles persecuted from city to city, stoned, incarcerated, beaten, and crucified?
9915Will the wheels of the millennial car be rolled onward by miraculous power?
9915Yea, are we not receiving chastisement even_ now_?
9915[ 4] Shall I ask you now my friends, to draw the parallel between Jewish_ servitude_ and American_ slavery_?
9915_ Slavery, then, must be overthrown before_ the prophecies can be accomplished, but how are they to be fulfiled?
9915and why despise them more than the_ gentlemen of fortune and standing_ who employ them as_ their_ agents?
9915do you not shudder at this thought as much as at that of his being_ a warrior_?
9915have_ you_ also been deceived by these false assertions?
9915upon the subjects of some foreign prince?
9915whose daily work it is to break human hearts, by tearing wives from their husbands, and children from their parents?
9915why not place_ your children_ in the way of being supported without your having the trouble to provide for them, or they for themselves?
9599Are there not other great interests?
9599Do you not believe in the Devil?
9599Down the chill street, which winds in gloomiest shade, What marks betray yon solitary maid? 9599 How does it happen,"inquires an able writer,"that whenever duty is named we begin to hear of the weakness of human nature?
9599I believe in God,was the reply;"do n''t you?"
9599Is not this the fast that I have chosen? 9599 Is this thy mane, my fearless Surtur, That streams against my breast?
9599Man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
9599Man giveth up the ghost; and where is he?
9599The existence of slavery among us, though not at all to be objected to our Southern brethren as a fault,etc?
9599What is religion?
9599When one saith, Moses meant as I do,''and another saith,''Nay, but as I do,''I ask, more reverently,''Why not rather as both, if both be true?
9599Who is he?
9599Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
9599--But why talk of amelioration?
9599Above all, has his infant child forfeited its unalienable right?
9599Amelioration of what?
9599And how many shopkeepers are there anywhere that would be over scrupulous in questioning a customer with a full purse?"
9599And if the slave- trade has become thus odious, what must be the fate, erelong, of its parent, slavery?
9599And pray how has it been with the white race, for whom our philosopher claims the divine prerogative of enslaving?
9599And should not decided action follow our deep convictions of the wrong of slavery?
9599And was not this a warning from Heaven?
9599And what does this prove?
9599And what has been the consequence of this general belief in the evil of human servitude?
9599And what is this system which we are thus protecting and upholding?
9599And why should it not exult?
9599Are those the Normes that beckon onward As if to Odin''s board, Where by the hands of warriors nightly The sparkling mead is poured?
9599Are we to be denied even the right of a slave, the right to murmur?
9599But stay who are these emigrants, these missionaries?
9599But what avails her beauty?
9599Can it be possible that our fathers felt this state necessity strong upon them?
9599Can such hollow sympathy reach the broken of heart, and does the blessing of those who are ready to perish answer it?
9599Can you find any excuse for them in the nature of the human mind, everywhere maddened by injury and conciliated by kindness?
9599Did the slaves baptize their freedom in blood?
9599Did they fight like unchained desperadoes because they had been made free?
9599Did they murder their emancipators?
9599Do they afford a reasonable protext for your fierce denunciations of your Northern brethren?
9599Do you find them in the emancipation of the South American Republics?
9599Does either embrace anything false, fanatical, or unconstitutional?
9599Does history, ancient or modern, justify your fears?
9599Does it become such a one to rave against the West India negro''s incapacity for self- civilization?
9599Does it hold back the lash from the slave, or sweeten his bitter bread?
9599Does there exist even in Virginia any law limiting the punishment of a slave?
9599During those years of sinful compromise the crime of man- robbery less atrocious than at present?
9599For what is slavery, after all, but fear,--fear, forcing mind and body into unnatural action?
9599Freemen, Christians, lovers of truth and justice Why stand ye idle?
9599Gentlemen, is not this true?
9599Had he not, in a moment of mad frenzy of which his memory made no record, actually murdered some one?
9599Has it decreased the number of its victims?
9599Has it sapped the foundations of the infamous system?
9599Has man husbanded well the good gifts of God, and are they nevertheless passing from him, by a process of deterioration over which he has no control?
9599Has the negro committed such offence?
9599Have I no desire to support myself in expensive customs, because my acquaintances live in such customs?
9599Have none of my fellow- creatures an equitable right to any part which is called mine?
9599Have our own peculiar warnings gone by unheeded,--the frequent slave insurrections of the South?
9599Have the gifts and possessions received by me from others been conveyed in a way free from all unrighteousness?
9599Have the people reflected upon the cause of this silence?
9599He that planted the ear, shall He not hear?
9599He who formed the eye, shall He not see?"
9599How did Toussaint succeed?
9599How faithful, yet, withal, how full of kindness, were his rebukes of those who refused labor its just reward, and ground the faces of the poor?
9599How far am I in thought, word, custom, responsible for this?
9599In Hayti?
9599In the partial experiments of some of the West India Islands?
9599In what exigency has he been found wanting?
9599Is all this in the ordinary course of nature?
9599Is not this offering a reward for perjury?
9599Is the rapid increase of a population of slaves in itself no evil?
9599Is this a remedy?
9599Is this thy neck, that curve of moonlight Which Helva''s hand caressed?
9599Let her and Falsehood grapple; whoever knew her to be put to the worst in a free and open encounter?"
9599Nay, is it not his duty to be merry, by main force if necessary?
9599Need I refer to the many revolts of the Roman and Grecian slaves, the bloody insurrection of Etruria, the horrible servile wars of Sicily and Capua?
9599Occasionally, in Considerations on the Keeping of?
9599Of what use to the district of Plymouth( which he there represented) was the standing army of the United States?
9599Once more we repeat the solemn inquiry which has been already made in our columns,"Is the Bible to enslave the world?"
9599Or, to come down to later times, to France in the fourteenth century, Germany in the sixteenth, to Malta in the last?
9599Out of the depths of burdened and weary hearts comes up the agonizing inquiry,"What shall I do to be saved?"
9599Palliating the evil, hiding the evil, voting for the evil, do we not participate in it?
9599Shall we denounce the slave- holders of the states, while we retain our slavery in the District of Columbia?
9599That ark must fall; that idol must be cast down; what, then, will be the fate of their supporters?
9599The truths of the gospel, its voice of warning and exhortation, will be denounced as incendiary?
9599To loose the bands of wickedness; to undo the heavy burdens and let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?"
9599To what remedy, then, can the friends of humanity betake themselves but to that of emancipation?
9599True; but will you point out instances of masters suffering the penalty of that law for the murder of their slaves?
9599Was not his evil finger manifested in the contumacious heresy of Roger Williams?
9599Were not the good St. Pierre, and Fenelon, and Howard, and Clarkson visionaries also?
9599Were the Puritans themselves the men to cast stones at the Quakers and Baptists?
9599What are their qualifications?
9599What but a few months ago arrayed in arms a state against the Union, and the Union against a state?
9599What has it done for amelioration?
9599What has made desolate and sterile one of the loveliest regions of the whole earth?
9599What in fact was the occupation of the army?
9599What is slavery?
9599What is the moral suggested by this record?
9599What legislative act of public utility for the last eighteen years has lacked his encouragement?
9599What shook the pillars of the Union when the Missouri question was agitated?
9599What was John Woolman, to the wise and prudent of his day, but an amiable enthusiast?
9599What, then, is our duty?
9599What, to those of our own, is such an angel of mercy as Dorothea Dix?
9599When, where, did justice to the injured waken their hate and vengeance?
9599When, where, did love and kindness and sympathy irritate and madden the persecuted, the broken- hearted, the foully wronged?
9599Where, then, will be the pride, the beauty, and the chivalry of the South?
9599Who does not feel the power of this simple picture of the old man in the last- mentioned poem?
9599Why are we thus willing to believe a lie?
9599Why do n''t you throw off your Quaker coats as I do mine, and show yourselves as you are?"
9599Why not let well enough alone?
9599Why tinker creeds, constitutions, and laws, and disturb the good old- fashioned order of things in church and state?
9599Why, then, should not even the doctor have his fun?
9599Why, then, should we stretch out our hands towards our Southern brethren, and like the Pharisee thank God we are not like them?
9599Will the evidence of your own Jefferson, on this point, be admissible?
9599Will you, gentlemen, will the able editors of the United States Telegraph and the Columbian Telescope, explain?
9599Yet is there not another side to the picture?
9599perhaps you will ask,"do you expect to overthrow our whole slave system at once?
9599shall we heed the unrighteous prohibition?
9599to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free?"
9599to turn loose to- day two millions of negroes?"
10637***** Between the meetings of Liverpool and the ovations of New York, is there not room for a word of peace?
10637And from a grievance to war, from war to negro insurrections, what will be the distance, I ask?
10637And how could it be otherwise?
10637And shall we remain mute?
10637And slavery itself, who imagines, then, that it can be immortal?
10637And under what pretexts do we chaffer with the government of Mr. Lincoln for those energetic, persevering sympathies on which it has a right to count?
10637And what will God think of it?
10637Are characters formed?
10637Are lawyers or judges ever asked whether the country is insulted or attacked when it really is so?
10637Are men there?
10637Are not these palpable proofs of the too little known truth that the great moral force which is struggling with American slavery is the Gospel?
10637Are the Antilles and the regions of the Gulf of Mexico destined to become the refuge and almost the empire of Africans torn from their own continent?
10637Are there no governments in Europe that can interpose, and recommend the maintenance of peace?
10637Are there no honest men to be found in the North, to restrain Mr. Lincoln, and to prevent him from oppressing them?
10637Are we destined some day to pass into its hands?
10637But what compromise could compensate for a fact so important as the election of Mr. Lincoln?
10637But what is there behind these phrases?
10637Can it be that mail packets have the singular privilege of facilitating such operations without failing in the duties of neutrality?
10637Can it be true that Christians have deserted the cause of justice?
10637Can you fancy New York renouncing half her commerce, ceasing to be the broker of cotton, the necessary medium between the South and Europe?
10637Can you fancy the South deprived of the intervention and credit which New York assures her?
10637Could not the whites of Kentucky and Virginia labor as well as those of Ohio?
10637Did not the Senate, last year, adopt the proposition of Mr. Jefferson Davis in opposition to the liberty of the Territories?
10637Did they fancy then that a formidable question could be resolved without risking the repression of the assaults of force by force?
10637Did you ever ask yourself how much would be missing here on earth if such a people should disappear?
10637Do disputes in which the national honor is involved admit of consultations of this sort?
10637Do you know what has since happened?
10637Does any one imagine by chance that the latter will forever relinquish New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico?
10637Does this mean that the situation was not grave when it did not appear so?
10637Does this mean that we are to set ourselves up as judges, and brand as wretches all those who thus mistake the laws of charity and justice?
10637Does this mean that we must deplore a violent crisis which alone can bring the cure?
10637Doubtless, there are hours of vertigo from which we may look for every thing, even the impossible; and, who knows?
10637For this question another may be substituted: what is a Confederation?
10637Has he revealed other institutions, this time definitive?
10637Has it not already announced in its journals that, on the first encouragement given to its fugitive slaves, it will draw the sword?
10637Has the Gospel had the place which belongs to it, in the great struggle that is going on between the North and the South?
10637Has the force of resistance appeared?
10637Have souls become masters of themselves?
10637Have there been many inaugurations here below of such thrilling solemnity?
10637Have they been able to avoid transforming it either into tyranny or socialism?
10637Have we already begun to glide down the descent that leads to it?
10637Have we not heard celebrated the delightful mildness of Spanish slavery in Cuba?
10637Have we not just seen a Republican committee acting at Baltimore, in the midst of Maryland?
10637How could slavery have been defended if not by exaggerating democracy?
10637How did they set to work to preach this?
10637How retain that slavery that will escape simultaneously on the North, and the South?
10637I have named secession: what are we to think of the principle on which it rests?
10637If they had not triumphed, do you know who would have gained the victory?
10637If to- morrow he should yield entirely, if he should recognize the Southern Confederacy, would it be great cause for astonishment?
10637In such a case, how avert the chances of a direful conflict?
10637In writing these pages, have I described American democracy?
10637Is it not probable that North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland will allow themselves to be crossed without saying a word?
10637Is it not the principal and almost the only producer of a raw material, without which the manufactures of the whole world would stand still?
10637Is it not true, that at the first news we all seemed to breathe a whiff of pure and free air from the other side of the ocean?
10637Is it nothing to suppress inheritance in religious matters, and to force each soul to question itself as to what it believes?
10637Is it probable indeed that this confederation contrary to nature, in which each white will be charged with guarding a black, can afford a long career?
10637Is it strange that he should have yielded in some degree to the entreaties of so many able men, all urging in the same direction?
10637Is it to do to others as we would that they should do to us, to sell a family at retail?
10637Is it true that emancipation would be the signal of a struggle for extermination?
10637Is it true, as has been maintained, that the fault was divided, the message having been carried by one packet and the messengers by another?
10637Is not the sovereignty of the States respected?
10637Is not the wealth of Great Britain founded on cotton, which alone furnishes four- fifths of its exported manufactures?
10637Is not this peace, which prevents the insurrections of negroes, and the destruction of cotton, for the interest of all?
10637Is that to say that this inconvenience( if it be one) is not largely compensated for by its advantages?
10637Is there not room upon American soil for free blacks by the side of free whites?
10637Is there then neither the true, nor the false, nor justice, nor injustice?
10637Is this religious sentiment, assailed by the slaveholders, that of free thinkers, or of Christians?
10637It is asked whether other packets, which have carried ministers sent by the United States to Europe, have not also infringed the rules of neutrality?
10637Let us ask in what consists this pretended amelioration?
10637Make conquests?
10637Must not the South live, and how dares any one travesty a fact so simple?
10637Must we conclude from this that the coexistence of races, possible elsewhere, is impossible in the United States?
10637Must we despair then of the progress of the spirit of peace?
10637Must we look with our own eyes upon English vessels employed in ensuring the success of the champions of slavery?
10637Must we veil our head with our mantle?
10637Nevertheless, shall we not take into account the exceptional difficulties with which Mr. Lincoln is surrounded?
10637Notwithstanding, what happened there the other day?
10637Notwithstanding, what has happened in the Antilles?
10637Of so much true liberty, of so much progress, of so many noble examples, what would have been left standing?
10637Of what elements is the population of the South composed?
10637Open the slave trade?
10637Or until the American question has shaped itself, and we are able to know clearly what interests it will serve, in what consequences it will end?
10637Shall I say all that I think?
10637Shall there be things among us( the most important of all) which shall not be put to the vote?
10637Shall we give our readers an idea of this crescendo of pretensions?
10637Shall we listen to the counsels of that false wisdom that always comes too late, so much does it fear to declare itself too early?
10637Shall we not feel impelled to show in all its true light the sacred cause of liberty?
10637The emancipated negroes make large quantities of sugar in the Antilles; why should they not make cotton on firm ground?
10637The majority stifled the debate; will it be able to do this always?
10637The policy of the founders of the Confederation has become that of their successors in turn; and to this policy, what can be objected?
10637Then look more closely at the Republican party, do you not find in it again the visible traces of Puritanism?
10637There is finally a last and more simple manner of avoiding an embarrassing examination:"What is the use of examining precedents?"
10637These are the shoals of democracy; have they been shunned by the United States?
10637This being so, what ought the commander of the packet_ Trent_ to have done?
10637To have waited for what?
10637To what do we not become habituated?
10637Until there shall be no more great questions in Europe to dispute our attention with the American question?
10637Was I not right in saying that this is a great people?
10637What are they?
10637What are, in fact, the great bonds on earth, if not duty and affection?
10637What does plain good sense tell us, in fact?
10637What does this matter?
10637What had Mr. Buchanan done?
10637What happens then?
10637What has happened, on the contrary?
10637What if abolitionism, moreover, be a party?
10637What is the first thing in question?
10637What is to be done when there is only the miserable Confederacy of some thousand whites, the owners and keepers of some hundred thousand blacks?
10637What would the valley of the Mississippi be without New Orleans, and New Orleans, isolated from the vast country of which it is the natural market?
10637Where do we find a more glorious cause than this?
10637Where will the United States be after secession?
10637Who continually recruited bands of adventurers to launch on Cuba or Central America?
10637Who knows again?
10637Who knows whether instantaneous secession would not perform the mission of resolving certain problems otherwise insoluble?
10637Who knows whether slavery must not disappear in this wise in the very effort that it makes to strengthen itself through isolation?
10637Who knows?
10637Who paid Walker?
10637Who speaks of the end of the United States?
10637Who speaks, then, of conquests?
10637Who will go then to expose himself lightly to the fearful chances which the first war with any country, American or European, may bring in its train?
10637Who would wish to re- establish the African slave trade on a large scale?
10637Why does no slaver, American or any other, steer towards Brazil, since Brazil has_ desired_ to put an end to the slave trade?
10637Why dream of blending or of assimilating the two races?
10637Why had these poor pilgrims torn themselves from all the habits of home and country, to seek in the dead of winter an asylum on an unknown soil?
10637Why has the importation of negroes tripled in Cuba?
10637Why is no opposition made to this?
10637Why not attack the Confederation while it had a chief who was determined to make as little defence as possible?
10637Why not?
10637Why pursue as an ideal frequent marriages between them, and the formation of a third race: that of mulattoes?
10637Why shall they be prevented from settling in a Territory with the slaves, their property?
10637Why should not the conflict which occupies our attention, instead of ending in war, result in a useful negotiation?
10637Why should there not be two Confederacies, living side by side, as good friends?
10637Why should there not be, at need, a negro State by the side of an Indian State?
10637Why suffer the establishment of this lying axiom which checks all progress?
10637Why, if the doubt were possible, would not diversity of opinions be also possible among disinterested judges?
10637Why, in fact, is the prejudice of race stronger in the free States than in the slave States?
10637Why?
10637Will a glorious confederation have perished by their retreat?
10637Will the South pause on such a road?
10637Will the official re- opening of the slave trade be some day effected without bringing on a storm which will destroy the new Confederacy?
10637Will there be a country, will there be a heart, forgetful enough of its dignity to tolerate this insolent challenge flung at our best sympathies?
10637Will they at least have the consolation of having killed the United States?
10637Will this flag cover the human merchandise which it is designed to protect against the interference of cruisers?
10637Would you know what will take place in political societies?
10637by what right was penned that eloquent calumny called"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"?
10637could not this solution be thought over and prepared by those who best know its elements?
10637despite the impure alloy which is mingled with it, of course, as with all glorious causes, is it not fitted to stir up generous hearts?
10637do they not preserve the right of postponing, so long as they deem proper, the solution of a dreaded problem?
10637do they not remain free to regulate what concerns them?
10637does it contain no guarantees for the future?
10637how is it that such iniquities have subsisted under the influence of so powerful a Christian sentiment?
10637what if it appeal to the passions of the North, as the slavery party appeals to those of the South?
10637what if it be based on interests which may be given it by the majority?
10637what if it have its journals, its publicists, its orators?
10637what if it make use of the means employed by parties?
10637what if it seek allies?
10637who live by the manufacture of cotton?
31410''Ow can that be?
31410''Ow is that, Master Arry?
31410An''that wan will be Misther Terence O''Connor, ov coorse?
31410And what are you listening for?
31410And what if it be?
31410Are the stones in the wreck really worth nothing?
31410Are you Christian dogs willing to earn your food now?
31410Ask him if the money for our ransom will be paid? 31410 Ask the young man,"commanded one of them,"if he is sure the merchant''For God''s sake bias''will ransom you all?"
31410Ax this man where be brother Jim an''Master Terence?
31410Bill, is it you?
31410But do you really think,asked Harry Blount,"that they will carry the ballast any distance without learning its real value?"
31410But how about the black man?
31410But how did ye come, Bill? 31410 But some one will meet them, and tell them that their lading is worthless?"
31410But they will compel us to help them?
31410But what can I do?
31410But what did they do to you, Bill?
31410But what shall we do for food?
31410But what''s to be found in such a country as this?
31410But who the deuce can sleep here?
31410But why did his dog of a son not go south?
31410But why do you think that we are to be taken elsewhere?
31410Can it be that we are to be taken into the empire of Morocco? 31410 Did it not''appen summers in this part o''the world?
31410Did you tell them that we were willing to work, if they would give us water?
31410Do you and your companions wish for freedom?
31410Do you really intend to take your slaves to Swearah?
31410Do you understand us?
31410Do you want us to work?
31410Golah like one of us? 31410 Had you not better draw it in?"
31410Have we not promised? 31410 Have you not all promised to be guided by me?"
31410Have you not promised that we should be taken to Swearah, and has not one gone there to obtain the money for our ransom?
31410Have you not said that we must keep together?
31410Have you, or your partners, received from the man, who claims three of the slaves, twelve horses and thirty dollars?
31410He is not an Englishman?
31410How about our trying to swim back? 31410 How can we tell that?"
31410How do you know they would?
31410How then?
31410How? 31410 How?"
31410I am your husband,he cried,"and whom should you obey but me?
31410If he means no harm, why has he bound us?
31410If the woman should come to you and offer you a handful of figs and a drink of milk, could you refuse them?
31410If you go north,replied the Krooman,"you will be sure to see Golah; or if you stay here, you will learn something of him?"
31410If you knew,asked Colin,"that you could quench your thirst by lagging a few paces behind, would you not do so?"
31410Is that your only hope?
31410Perhaps he was drowned?
31410Shall we go quietly with our new master?
31410Shall we go, or die?
31410Suppose,said one of them,"that our master Bo Muzem should find a man in Swearah who is willing to ransom you, how much are we to get for you?"
31410Sure they''re not cannibals?
31410Tell me,added he,"did you ever hear of an English merchant in Swearah named''For God sake byas?''"
31410That is understood,said Harry;"but what can we do?
31410The spar?
31410Then what must I do to save him?
31410Then why did you not keep on to the well?
31410Then why do they not come and relieve us?
31410Then why do they not go willingly?
31410Then why not get them, and bring''em along?
31410They are digging a grave for me, or that of the poor woman,--perhaps for both of us?
31410They wo n''t eat us, any how?
31410True; and for that we should have to take you to Swearah, and be at the expense of feeding you along the road?
31410Very likely,said Harry;"but how do you know it is Golah''s track?"
31410Was his attempt to starve you dictated by a manly spirit?
31410Well, what''s the news?
31410Well, why was it?
31410Were they Englishmen?
31410What did you tell them?
31410What do I care for the future?
31410What do you mean, Coley?
31410What does the Moor say?
31410What does the ould divil mane?
31410What for?
31410What have they done to you, Bill?
31410What is it, Bill? 31410 What is that you say?"
31410What is the name of his uncle?
31410What is the name of this uncle?
31410What makes you think so?
31410What on hearth is it doin''''ere?
31410What shall we do?
31410What shall we do?
31410What two?
31410What was it?
31410What would you advise us to do, Bill?
31410Where are our masters the merchants?
31410Where do you think they''ll take us, Bill?
31410Where next?
31410Where?--where is it?
31410Which is he who has the rich uncle?
31410Which is the one who speaks Arabic?
31410Which of you have been trying to do me an injury?
31410Why have you sold us?
31410Why is that?
31410Why, puir Maister Colly, what is wrang wi''ye?
31410Why?
31410Will he murder us all?
31410Will you_ give_ me some of them, then?
31410You think they have n''t seen the shine of the lens?
31410You want me to kill you?
31410Above all, why had it made the downward journey in such a singular manner?
31410All three felt certain of being able to save themselves; but what would become of their companion, the sailor?
31410Am I not kind?
31410And who could that owner be but one of those cruel denizens of the desert they had been taking such pains to avoid?
31410Are you bad men who fear not God, that your promise should be thus broken?"
31410Away, away,--and who shall attempt to paint the feelings of the captives as their wanderings began again?
31410Bill, what should we do?"
31410Bud wo n''t there be a row when he larns summat more?
31410But in what direction were they to go?
31410But stay, masters, have you a camel to sell?"
31410But what are we to think of this last turn of Fortune''s wheel?"
31410But where was the Arab sentry?
31410But where was the breakfast of Colin and his fellow- captives?
31410But why should they have extended farther?
31410Ca n''t we save her?"
31410Could it be that Golah had given up the hope of recovering his lost property?
31410Could it be that he had been mistaken-- that the Arabs were going to apply the screw of starvation for another day?
31410Could this man be the Arab sentinel?
31410Could this meal be meant for breakfast?
31410Did yez take me for''ould Neptune risin''hout of the say?
31410Do they take us for slaves, that we should do their will?"
31410Do you hear that?
31410Do you say so?"
31410Do you think we could do it?"
31410Does it convince you that men and women are near?
31410Does not common sense tell you that they are liars?"
31410Had another of the party fallen a victim to the vengeance of Golah?
31410Had this vessel, on which the wreckers were engaged, been freighted with money, and had the boxes been buried as soon as brought ashore?
31410Have you any slaves, or other property you can sell me?"
31410His absence accounted for the loss of the camel, and perhaps the horse, but what had become of the Arab guard?
31410How can I?
31410How could they have conjectured otherwise?
31410How long ago was it?"
31410I never mean to eat again until I''m hungry Master Terry,"he added, turning to the young Irishman,"is n''t this foine livin''intirely?
31410I thought you had had enough of them?"
31410I wonder what he has done wi''''em?"
31410If so, in what manner?
31410If the man was not sleeping, why should he allow an enemy to approach so near?
31410In their hurried traverse thither, it had not occurred to them to inquire for what purpose they were running towards the sea?
31410In what way?"
31410Its leader was hailed by Golah with the words,"Is it peace?"
31410Neither are you riding?
31410Or did yez think I was a mare- maid?
31410Or should they follow, in the hope of overtaking him?
31410Presently, turning to Bo Muzem, he asked,"Did your partners offer you a share of the money they received for the slaves?"
31410Shall I declare it?
31410Shall I give the word?"
31410Shall we four British tars, belong to a party of ten,--all enslaved by three men,--black men at that?"
31410Should he give the alarm by firing off the pistol, and then run towards the camp?
31410Should he shout to his companions, and have them all act in concert,--as they had already proposed?
31410Should they kill the camel?
31410Should they stay where they were, and wait for Bill''s return?
31410Still, what could the boys do?
31410Suppose we get the Krooman to speak to them?"
31410Suppose we speak to the Moor about them?
31410Sure no human creature that''s got a woman and child in his company would be such a cruel brute as you make out this desert Ethiopian to be?
31410Sure they must be Arabs; and sure you''ve heard enough of Arab hospitality?"
31410The fourth could not:_ he could not swim!_ Surely the reader needs no further explanation?
31410The next question was: where were they to go?
31410Three midshipmen,--armed only with their tiny dirks,--what chance would they have among so many?
31410WADE OR SWIM?
31410Wade or Swim?
31410Was he going to kill her?
31410We must not let him kill poor Colly?"
31410Were they clouds?
31410What can we do?
31410What could be their object?
31410What could that something be, if not the knowledge that its home, or its companions, were to be found in this direction?
31410What could this something be but its home, the tent from which it had strayed, the dwelling of its owner?
31410What danger could there be among the"dunes?"
31410What does Bill say to it?"
31410What does this mean?
31410What have you done, or who are you, that we should maintain you?
31410What hope is there of our ever getting free?"
31410What is it that she gives you to eat, Maister Colly?"
31410What is it?"
31410What more can you ask?
31410What say ye to our trying it?"
31410What was he going to do?
31410What was there in all this to fix the attention of the fugitives-- for it had?
31410What was to be done?
31410What, when exercised, must be that of their men?
31410When did gamester ever leave gaming- table so long as a stake was left him to continue the play?
31410When the noises had approached a little nearer Golah called out in Arabic:"Is it peace?"
31410When was it to terminate?
31410Where is he now?"
31410Where the deevil are ye steerin''to?
31410Which one?
31410Which way to the shore?
31410Whither was the camel conducting him?
31410Who will buy them?"
31410Why had it gone up the gorge, apparently_ parenti passu_, to come tumbling down again in such a confused fashion?
31410Why had they not been awakened before?
31410Why lie so quietly, without showing any sign or giving an alarm?
31410Why should n''t we find shell- fish,--enough to keep us alive?
31410Why should the man be listening?
31410Why should we do more than Him?"
31410Why should we not try to change our position by seeking another place?"
31410Why this delay?
31410Why was it still kicking and stumbling about at the bottom of the ravine,--for such did the sounds proclaim it to be doing?
31410Why, then, should they try to escape while journeying towards the place where those friends were living?
31410Wo n''t there, Master''Arry?"
31410You may ask, why this selection of the nostrils instead of the mouth?
31410You may suppose that modesty interfered to reserve to them their shirts?
31410You saw the swab?
31410You will wonder in what manner this could be effected?
31410added the young Scotchman, turning to the old sailor,"what are you dreaming about?"
31410and are yez not afther bein''happy?"
31410and who else would yez expect it to be?
31410asked Terence;"the old villain means mischief, and how can we prevent it?
31410can not they be thankful for their own good fortune?
31410do you think there is any hope?"
31410exclaimed Golah, nearly frantic with delight;"and we are not carrying you, are we?
31410exclaimed Terence;"have you been a slave in the Saära so long as that?
31410exclaimed the old sheik,"why do you not die, my friend?
31410has your promise to keep a sharp lookout been broken so soon?
31410inquiring whether the quadrupeds voluntarily performed this nasal imbibing?
31410relinquished his deadly purpose of revenge?
31410suggested Terence, as soon as he had recovered his wind;"might we not?"
31410what can we do to save you?"
31410what do yez mean, you brute?
31410what have you learnt now?"
31410will he be in both directions at the same time, and here likewise?"
31410yield up to an old monkey like that, and walk tamely to the camp at the tail of his camel?
31410you think we may be separated?"
21508''And what do you know''bout hounds?'' 21508 ''Coldest, did you say?
21508''Run, did you say? 21508 Albert Calina?
21508As the girls got opposite Uncle Brack, he threw his stick in front of them and they exclaimed,Is dat you, Uncle Brack?

9171Why hast thou called in question the fact that Philemon was a slave- holder? 9171 Why hast thou said, that I did not send Onesimus back_ by authority?_ I did send him back by authority,--yea, by authority of the Lord Jesus Christ?
9171Why hast thou said, that I did not send Onesimus back_ by authority?_ I did send him back by authority,--yea, by authority of the Lord Jesus Christ? 9171 Why not, John?"
9171Why, then, hast thou not understood my speech? 9171 Woman, hast thou ears?
91711- 5) I do say, to rebuke all abolitionists?
917115, 16?)
9171A. Blackburn What Is the Foundation of Moral Obligation?
9171Again, whether these evils can or can not be modified and removed?
9171Ah, has she not been sold and bought for money?
9171And was it not Christ''s law to him to return and submit himself under his master''s hand?
9171And what is this but the attempt to know the divine attributes and character in_ some other way_ than through the divine WORD?
9171And what is this but to make the WILL_ of God_ give place to the WILL_ of man?_ And what is this but the REJECTION OF REVELATION?
9171And what is this but to make the WILL_ of God_ give place to the WILL_ of man?_ And what is this but the REJECTION OF REVELATION?
9171Are its days numbered?
9171Are some men, then,"_ created_"natural fools?
9171Are they not"_ created_"just above the brute, with savage natures along with mental imbecility and physical degradation?
9171Be divorced?
9171But how does this fact prove that the Bible does not sanction slavery?
9171But to proceed:-- Do you say the slave is_ sold and bought?_ So is the wife the world over.
9171But what if God in his word says,"Both thy bondmen and thy bondmaids which thou shalt have shall be of the heathen that are round about you"?
9171But why?
9171But, if it did remain, does God command the master to send his Christianized slave into the horrors of his former African heathenism?
9171But-- But what?
9171Can all this be?
9171Can the slave- holder, then, throw off wrong so long as he holds the slave at any time or anywhere thereafter?"
9171Can this double emigration civilize Africa and more than re- people the South?
9171Carry it out, and what is the progress and the end of it?
9171Did Abraham have his slave- household circumcised?
9171Did God merely permit sin?--did he merely tolerate a dreadful evil?
9171Did they capture them in war?--did they sell their own children?
9171Do I then teach that man should not seek the_ proof_ there is, of the perfection and attributes of God, in_ nature and providence_?
9171Do they prove that"all men are created equal"?
9171Do you admit_ their inferiority by_"CREATION?"
9171Do you ask how?
9171Do you ask if I then hold, that God ordains the Russian type of rule to be perpetual over that people?
9171Do you reply that I have taken an extreme case?
9171Do you say, The slave is held to_ involuntary service?_ So is the wife.
9171Do you tell me that Abraham, by divine authority, made these servants part of his family, social and religious?
9171Do you, sir, or anybody, contend that the Southern master seized his slave in Africa, and forcibly brought him away to America, contrary to law?
9171Do, then, the facts in man''s natural history exhibit this departure from the laws of life and spirit?
9171Does God require him to send the negro back to his heathen home from whence he was stolen?
9171Does he give him authority to claim a created equality and unalienable right to be on a level with the white man in civil and social relations?
9171Does he tell him to ask to be sent back to heathen Africa?
9171For what does God say?
9171For what is revelation?
9171Had not Peter written,''Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward''?
9171Has God, then, established the relations of husband and wife, parent and child, master and slave?
9171Has he found the EXHIBITION of_ infinite power?_ No.
9171Has it been even because thou couldst not_ hear_ my word?
9171Have you a request from the South that you send a committee to inquire into slanders?
9171Have you a_ prosecutor_, with his definite charge and witnesses?
9171Have you_ Common Fame_, with her specified charges and witnesses?
9171How?
9171I ask again, Have the Russian serfs and nobles,--yea, all,--"consenting,"the right, from God, to make that change?
9171I ask now,_ was Abraham a man- stealer?_ Oh, no, you reiterate: but the Southern master is.
9171I then asked,"How many may he hold, in humanity?"
9171In plainer words:--Did God command the Hebrews to make slaves of their fellow- men, to buy them and sell them, to regard them as their money?
9171Is it self- love?
9171Is it selfishness?
9171Lastly, whether slavery itself can or can not pass away from this land and the world?
9171May I thus give the mildest rebuke to your inconsistency of conduct?
9171Must the Napoleons govern the Cretins without their"consent"?
9171Need I extend these questions?
9171Now comes the question, OUGHT he then to_ expect_ or_ desire_ liberty and equality?
9171Now, I ask, Has the emperor_ right_, from God, to change at once, in his mere"_ consent_,"the_ form_ of his government to_ that_ of the United States?
9171Or will you tell us the iniquity of the Canaanites was then full, and God''s time to punish them had come?
9171Sir, are you not afraid that some of your once best men will soon have no better Bible than that?
9171Sir, are you satisfied with these consequences of the agitation you have gotten up?
9171Sir, do you bid us fear these coming events, thus casting their shadow before from the leaves of your book?
9171Sir, may we know who are the descendants of the New England kidnappers?
9171Sir, what has the missionary to say, after this perfect proof that you have mistaken the great law of right?
9171Sir, why do your Northern church- members and philanthropists buy Southern products at all?
9171Splendid in its genius, over which I have wept, and laughed, and got mad,( here some one said,"All at the same time?")
9171Tell us if the Hebrew who thus had his ear bored by his master with an awl was not a slave for life?
9171Tell us what was the condition of the woman in case the man chose to"go out"without her?
9171Tell us, lastly, whether those children were not slaves?
9171The great question of the world is, WHAT IS TO BE THE FUTURE OF THE AMERICAN SLAVE?--WHAT IS TO BE THE FUTURE OF THE AMERICAN MASTER?
9171Then, did the Hebrews sin when they obeyed God''s command?
9171This passage of Scripture settles the question, From whence has government RIGHT to rule, and what is the_ extent_ of its power?
9171WHAT is RIGHT AND WRONG?
9171Was it not then of my responsibility to send him again to Philemon?
9171Was it wrong in the nature of things?
9171We reach the same conclusion by asking, What does God say to the negro- slave?
9171Well, how did the heathen, then, get slaves to sell?
9171Well, sir, what does your Boston Dr. Nehemiah Adams say?
9171What Is the Foundation of Moral Obligation?
9171What can you do?
9171What can you do?
9171What can you do?
9171What does this passage mean?
9171What else has hindered?
9171What else was my duty and his?
9171What if we may then choose between Albert Barnes''s philosophy and God''s truth?
9171What is his relation?
9171What is it?
9171What is their wealth?
9171What more can I say to them in this day?
9171What next?
9171What next?
9171What now is man?
9171What other slaves would love their masters better than themselves?--rock them and fan them in their cradles?
9171What then?
9171What then?
9171What then?
9171What was done for them?
9171What was the sin?
9171What would be_ human social life?_ Who would be the weak, the loving?
9171What would be_ human social life?_ Who would be the weak, the loving?
9171What would be_ human_ virtue, what_ human_ vice, what_ human_ joy or sorrow?
9171What''s the difference between my filching this blood- stained cotton from the outraged negro, and your standing by, taking it from me?
9171What''s the difference?
9171What, then, does God command him to do?
9171What, then, is it to kidnap or steal a man?
9171What, then, is our gain?
9171When women despise the Bible, what next?
9171When would the war end?
9171Where can they go?
9171Wherefore is this?
9171Who would be the grateful?
9171Who would be the humble, the meek?
9171Who would be the victors where all are giants?
9171Who would seek or need forbearance, compassion, self- denying benevolence?
9171Who would sue for peace where none will submit?
9171Why do you buy?
9171Why hast thou imagined such license to iniquity?
9171Why hast thou in all this changed my Golden Rule?
9171Why hast thou made void my law, by making me say,''All that thou_ expectest_ or_ desirest_ of others, in similar circumstances, do to them''?
9171Why hast thou tortured that plain truth?
9171Why?
9171Why?
9171Why?
9171Why?
9171Why?
9171Will you give dollar for dollar to equalize our loss?
9171Will you give me back$ 10,000?
9171Will you now come to our help?
9171Will you run away, with your stick and your bundle?
9171Will you say that you are free,--that you will go where you please, do as you please?
9171Will you then ostracize the South and compel the abolition of slavery?
9171Will you, then, tell New England, and especially little Rhoda, We have purified our skirts from the blood: forgive us, and take us again to your love?
9171Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power?
9171Wisner_.--Does the brother propose to go into it here?
9171Yes, yes?
9171Your tract, just published, is, I suppose, intended by you to prepare the next General Assembly for such movement?
9171_ Is the Southern Master a Man- Stealer_?
9171_ Was Abraham a Man- Stealer?_ Sir, what is the common sense of these Scriptures?
9171_ Was Abraham a Man- Stealer?_ Sir, what is the common sense of these Scriptures?
9171_ Was the Israelite Master a Man- Stealer?_ I now ask, Did God intend to make man- stealing and slave- holding the same thing?
9171_ Was the Israelite Master a Man- Stealer?_ I now ask, Did God intend to make man- stealing and slave- holding the same thing?
9171_ What is sin_, as a mental state?
9171and what is his obligation?
9171and, in thousands of illustrious instances, be willing to give life, and, in fact, die, to serve or save them?
9171caress them-- how tenderly!--boys and girls?
9171honor them, grown up, as superior beings?
9171that everybody admits sensible people must govern natural fools?
9171what''s that?"
9171why do n''t ye throw the cotton in the sea, as your fathers did the tea?
9171why hast thou not understood my speech to Hagar?
52113''And what will you do with him in the mean while?'' 52113 ''Do you belong in this State?''
52113''Do you mean to take him off there?'' 52113 ''How came the master''s sensibility to take such a different turn from that of the rest of the family?''
52113''How soon?'' 52113 ''What could I refuse him then?''
52113A boy?
52113A friend to slavery? 52113 A relation?"
52113And her own brothers?
52113And the son has his story?
52113And yet I suppose he''s something of a scholar, too?
52113Any finer than ours?
52113Are these flowers scarce?
52113Are you a near friend of his?
52113But do you not wish----?
52113But how does that agree with your law?
52113But how is Reginald ever going to pay his debt to this sister? 52113 Can he read?"
52113Colvil, you will ride along beside?
52113Did you ever see her?
52113Did you ever take a journey with Frederic Harvey?
52113Do his parents wish him to follow the law?
52113Do we not know that there is no such thing as birth in New England? 52113 Do you know Rasey?"
52113Do you know how their regenerate Transatlantic country presented itself to its early projectors? 52113 Do you know old Rasey personally?
52113Do you know them so well?
52113Do you suppose I would give up those whose aid I have asked?
52113Do you suppose they have no real grievances, then?
52113Do you think you were worth it?
52113Does Harry intend to take a profession?
52113Does he forbid them to take it?
52113Does that mean no? 52113 Fair hair?
52113Finer than yours? 52113 Graceful?"
52113Had he, though?
52113Harry will be what he was meant to be; you would not have him force himself to become anything else?
52113He is in college? 52113 He shall have three good meals a day, and cooked for him: is that it?
52113He was alone?
52113His plantation;--but do you know_ him_?
52113How did he get to college? 52113 How far is it to Omocqua?"
52113How long have you known Harry Dudley?
52113How long have you known the Harvey plantation?
52113How long was he abroad?
52113How many descendants do you suppose there are now from Governor Thomas Dudley''s forty grandchildren? 52113 How many does it not include?"
52113I have nothing, then, to offer which could tempt her?
52113In regard to our institutions, you mean? 52113 In what plans?"
52113Is Mr. Dudley here?
52113Is her name Anna?
52113Is it not terrible, when law and opinion, which should restrain from tyranny, compel to it?
52113Is it possible?
52113Is musical genius of the force of Orphy''s common among the negroes of your plantations?
52113Is that the best way, do you think?
52113Is your name----?
52113It is two years since you met, is it not?
52113Lately? 52113 Omocqua?
52113Our leading man?
52113Pale, delicate?
52113Senator, why are you here?
52113Shall I put it into the box?
52113So soon?
52113Strike out all who do not yet belong to it, and all who have ceased to have a full claim to belong to it, and what have you left?
52113The enterprise of the Pilgrim Fathers was somewhat Quixotic,--was it not?
52113The father?
52113The very one you have been looking for?
52113There is no one, then? 52113 This constitutes, then, the whole of the much talked- of religion of your negro Christians?"
52113To Goosefield?
52113Was he with his parents all the time?
52113Was the privilege appreciated?
52113Were you at a Trappist monastery with him?
52113What about?
52113What do you think yourself?
52113What does it signify that men are called slaves and slaveholders, if, in their mutual relations, they observe the laws of justice and kindness? 52113 What is it now?"
52113What is the plan, Master?
52113What now? 52113 What principle?"
52113What was the creed inculcated upon Colonel Shaler''s protégés?
52113What was the man''s name?
52113When are we going to see the Shaler plantation?
52113When was he here?
52113When you have disposed of slavery, what are you going to do with the slaves?
52113Where did he get his name?
52113Where is Reginald? 52113 Where is he?"
52113Where shall I really take you?
52113Which of us would dare to say it of himself?
52113Who calls you to it? 52113 Who says that?"
52113Will you let me finish my stint?
52113Yes; but what are two years to men who were children together? 52113 You allow that?"
52113You know how Omocqua stands?
52113You mean, to be explicit, such men as Judge Henley of Virginia, Dr. Kirwin of South Carolina, and, above all, Shaler of this State?
52113You were not on board?
52113You will not dare to say of these poor beings that they are capable of self- government?
52113You would leave this place as soon as possible?
52113You''ve seen some fine countries abroad, Sir?
52113''Search the Scriptures,''she said, was a plain command; and how could a man search the Scriptures, if he could n''t read?
52113--Westlake had once a sister Anna, whom he loved.--"Is she pretty?"
52113And are not the claims of friendship paramount to all other?
52113And had I not enough?
52113And is not their fate in my hands?
52113And the two little boys?"
52113And would not Mr. Harvey be happier, if there were no whip or stocks on his plantation, seen or unseen?
52113Are there more there like him or like you?"
52113Are these last pages yesterday''s?
52113Are we not constantly hearing, even with us, of men who have never found their place?
52113Blue eyes?"
52113Borrow seen these?"
52113Borrow your room, and you will take the little one down- stairs, that you had when Selden was here?
52113But Harry now spoke eagerly:--"Have you found it?"
52113But Harvey, Westlake, Falter,--because they are provided for too well, as you seem to think,--will you dispossess them altogether?
52113But which of us had looked forward to this utter waste?
52113But who are your examples of resistance, though?"
52113But who does not know him, that knows anybody here?
52113But would Harry have heard it?
52113But would he find me absolved?
52113But, between ourselves, Westlake, how is it behind the scenes?
52113Can he believe that I would, without grave cause, lose any of the time we might yet have together?
52113Can we ever really lose what we have ever really possessed?
52113Can you look each other in the face and pronounce it?
52113Compromise?
52113Could Harry ever have liked him, if he had not been worthy to be liked?
52113Could Harry''s warm young heart contain itself?
52113Could I have spoken it?
52113Did not Mr. Harvey speak to you of him?"
52113Did we not feel ourselves good Kentucks, walking through beautiful Kentucky?"
52113Did you know him?"
52113Did you see much of him, Harry, after you left school?"
52113Do not all things work together for good to those that love Him?
52113Do you know what that is?"
52113Do you suppose it is least sweet when most deserved?"
52113Do you think she will be satisfied with anything short of seeing him President?
52113Do you think we could legislate the class you speak of into receiving it?"
52113Dudley?"
52113Falter be happier, if his bloodhounds were kept only as curiosities?
52113For why should we suppose that the struggle with slavery is to last through the life of the present generation?
52113From whom have you your warrant?"
52113Had Harry incurred ill- will by some generous imprudence?
52113Had I really displeased him?
52113Had he left the house, perhaps?
52113Had it an interest for me only yesterday?
52113Harvey?"
52113Have not the whites a right to a share,--our own brothers by blood?"
52113Have they not claims upon me?"
52113Have you ever seen him?"
52113He had an expression-- awe- struck shall I call it?
52113He has, then, recovered, or will recover, the rank of a gentleman?"
52113He is not an----?"
52113He wanted me to teach him.--"What do you want to learn?"
52113He who had been the life, the joy, of those dearly remembered hours, was he to be the sorrow, the burden of these?
52113How did the Doctor bring it on the table that morning?
52113How does he stay there, if he has nothing?"
52113How long have you known the Harvey plantation,--Land''s End, as Judge Harvey called it, when he first came to settle here?"
52113How reconcile it with Divine Omnipotence?
52113How reconcile it with the religion he was on the point of embracing?
52113How should you?
52113I begin to ask myself, Was it made to duty?
52113I only wish our own race"----"Showed an equal power of resistance?"
52113If it was a necessary part of the highest mortal experience, how can we ask that it may be left out from ours?
52113If the nephew of Augustus had lived, would he indeed have been Marcellus?
52113Is all quiet now?"
52113Is he changed?
52113Is it not one of their first titles to honor?"
52113Is there a greater need than that of sympathy and honest counsel?
52113Is there any one in the neighborhood you can trust?
52113Is this mad obstinacy only?
52113Looking, then, on this item and on others like it, he will ask himself,''Am I a dog that I have done these things?''
52113May we not believe that the time may come, even in our day, when we shall only have to build and to plant, no longer to overthrow and uproot?
52113Mr. Colvil has told you about him?"
52113Must I teach you your own descent?"
52113My friend Harvey, who entertained us so hospitably, is a bad man, I suppose?"
52113Or does he carry his respect for liberty so far that he thinks it a sin for a man to compel the earth to supply his needs?"
52113Or have you really persuaded yourselves down here that you are governed by your best men?"
52113Probably Shaler''s affection for his wards was not so demonstrative?"
52113She had recourse to the usually unfailing appeal,--''But, Harry, do you not want me to love you?''
52113The hotel we were at,--the Jefferson Hotel, Harry?"
52113Then the Doctor spoke abruptly,--in answer to himself, probably, for neither Harry nor I had said anything:--"What then?
52113This spirit had never been broken by fear; ought it not all the more to bend itself in love and gratitude?
52113This unimagined grief, how was it to be borne?
52113To pray for what we do not at the same time strive for, is it not an impiety?
52113Was not this regret itself an earnest of the power of return?
52113Was the charm received through the ear to be heightened or dissolved by the eye?
52113Was the landlord afraid of being involved in his guest''s discredit?
52113Was there not here a promise unfulfilled?
52113Was there not here frustration of a master- work?
52113Was_ he_ the one to be wanting?
52113Westlake valued him for his high spirit as much as for his capacity; but should not Senator be very sensible to such magnanimity?
52113What am I going to?"
52113What are we in presence of those majestic memories?
52113What does slavery mean for me when I oppose its opponents?
52113What sort of a fellow was he then?"
52113What then?
52113When he spied the little flowers nestled in the green, he exclaimed,--"Where did you find these, Harry?
52113When we met an Alabamian or a Georgian abroad, was he not our countryman?
52113Where are you going to take him?
52113Who can tell how soon we may be called to the fiery trial?"
52113Who knows but she looks for more yet?
52113Who knows but she looks to see him one of the lights of the world,--one of the benefactors of his race,--a discoverer in science,--a reformer?

11329On what plea did the American colony rebel?
11329PHILOSOPHER_( loquitur)._--Can you write?
11329Paddy''s head appeared, and, with a most inquiring voice, he said--"Is it warm water to dhrink you want, your honour?"

11329The reason may be asked why these waggons have such low splashboards as to admit all the gravel?
11329Their conversation of course turned upon fighting-- when did schoolboys meet that it was not so?
11329Then followed the simple question for which an answer was wanted,"Will you lend me half- a- crown?"
11329They cried: was it for their mother''s embrace, or did they miss their brother and sisters?
11329This being done, a rattling"Yes"came forth, upon which each person asked in succession,"Am I objectionable to you?"
11329Was it not, as a broad principle, the right of self- government?
11329Was it that I was steeped in ingratitude?
11329Were not steamboats and railways long opposed as being little better than insane visions?
11329Were they uneducated villains, whom poverty and distress had hardened into crime?
11329What are most laws made for, but to restrain men by human penalties from a broach of the law of love?
11329What are they but concentrations of the fact that selfishness is man''s ruling passion?
11329What can all this mean?
11329What can be thought of the value of human life, when I add that all these miscreants were bailed?
11329What do I see?
11329What do his letters, as one of the commissioners, prove beyond the shadow of a doubt?
11329What is a Bay?
11329What is the use of a preface?
11329What lawful boast of freedom can there ever be, where contact with freemen is dreaded, be their skins black or any colour of the rainbow?
11329What stronger evidence of the growth of kindness in the master''s heart could possibly be desired?
11329What thoughts does Rochester give rise to?
11329What was to be done?
11329What would be more ridiculous than Scotland having grand processions on the anniversary of Bannockburn, or England on that of Waterloo?
11329When Cabby drove up, judging from the appearance of the prince that he was"the fare,"he said,"Are you the chap that sent for a cab?"
11329Whence comes"Every one for himself, and God for us all"?
11329Where then is the good to be derived from such declarations?
11329Where was he?
11329Where was there ever true charity that did not begin at home?
11329Which is the worst, the boy who begs chestnuts, and throws the shells on the floor, and lies about it, or my brother who gives them to him?
11329Which was the best off?
11329Who can define it?
11329Who can this be for?
11329Who dares lay even a finger upon the noble daughter of their adored chief?
11329Who that has bowels of compassion but must commiserate me in such"untoward circumstances?"
11329Who wants a preface?
11329Who, then, can shadow forth the fate that is reserved for this tropical gem of the ocean, where all around is so dark and louring?...
11329Whoever sees a negro in the North smile at the approach of the white man?
11329Why did I thus act?
11329Will any one assert that self- interest is sufficient to restrain anger?
11329William, mind you do n''t let go the rein; is it strong enough?"
11329With such evidences of friendship for the negro, might they not question the honesty of Northern champions of emancipation?
11329Wo nt Shelty go?"
11329You will naturally ask here, what precautions are taken to avoid such frightful casualties?
11329[ AB] The future of this rich and lovely island, who can predict?
11329and did He not set the example in his own person?
11329and finding I was inattentive, he added,"Do n''t you find it very cold?"
11329honour the king?''
11329how appropriate is the slang phrase"Do n''t you wish you may get''em?"
11329oh, no-- a spare towel?
11329oh, no-- his coat- tails?
11329or, the more vulgar one,"Go ahead, and the d----l take the hindmost?"
11329said, What are your ideas of justice?
11329that I must add-- who cared?
11329the mighty spirits who had, by their power of eloquence, so often charmed and spell- bound the tenants of the senate chamber-- where were they?
11329there was the owner of the third bed, deliberately mopping up the contents of the jug he had upset over the carpet, with-- what do you think?
11329what sound is that?
11329what''s the matter now?
21701Aha, here you are, Orpin-- not kept you waiting long, I hope?
21701Ai n''t it a booty?
21701All well at Eden-- eh?
21701Am I? 21701 An''what may_ your_ tred be, sir?"
21701And alarmed us all dreadfully, did n''t it?
21701And can you tell what brought about this change?
21701And what aboot the Kawfirs and Bushmen?
21701And what may that have to do with it?
21701And what of Considine?
21701And what of the Kafirs?
21701And where is Mrs Brook?
21701And why?
21701And you like to live in the wild karroo?
21701And you, Hans?
21701Ay, what do you mean?
21701Besides, the sweetness does not last long; and will it, let me ask, make the black man happier or the white man more sorrowful in the long- run? 21701 But ca n''t you give me some sort of idea of these things in a few words?"
21701But is it not the same with_ all_ savages?
21701But where_ is_ the best''otel?
21701But''aving''ad it, ai n''t it well that it''s hover?
21701But, my dear chums,remonstrated Dobson,"is it not--""Now do n''t ask,` Is it not your own fault?''
21701Ca n''t some of your brothers help?
21701Can you shoot?
21701Can you speak English?
21701Cape- smoke?
21701Come, Mr Considine, you wanted to-- Where''s Considine?
21701Come, Mr Considine,he said, putting on his hat,"are you disposed for a ride?
21701D''ee ken onything aboot Baviaans River?
21701D''you mean to say that you ca n''t shoot?
21701Did he like you?
21701Did iver''ee see the like? 21701 Did n''t you hear it?"
21701Did you ever eat one?
21701Do n''t you see,explained Van Dyk, with one of his quiet smiles,"that the ground where the nearest fellows stand is not suitable for horsemen?"
21701Do n''t you think this a charming life?
21701Do n''t you think?
21701Do you accompany them?
21701Do you find it so dull?
21701Do you flatter yourself that either the plough or the rifle will stop their thievish propensities? 21701 Do you go far away?"
21701Do you know him?
21701Do you know the importance of always keeping the muzzle of your gun_ away_ from the unfortunate fellow you chance to be shooting with?
21701Do you know what them reptiles there are saying?
21701Do you know where-- where-- the_ knife_ is kept?
21701Do you mean those white specks like ostrich eggs on the hillock to the right of the big bush?
21701Do you smoke?
21701Do you think so?
21701Do you think, Mr Marais,said Gertie, looking up timidly at the handsome young Dutchman,"that the worst of it is over?"
21701Do you?
21701Does Jan Smit ever tink of oders-- of anybody but hisself?
21701Had n''t we better fire a shot?
21701Had you a male cousin or relative of the same name with yourself whom he_ did_ like?
21701Have you been to the deputy- quartermaster- general''s office?
21701Hear what?
21701Help you to kill a sheep, ma''am?
21701How d''you know she''s a grandmother?
21701How did you come by it?
21701How long-- has this-- lasted?
21701How many are there of you?
21701How you knows I not tink?
21701How? 21701 I never''eard such an''owling before,"said Jerry Goldboy;"what is it all about?"
21701Indeed, how was that?
21701Indeed?
21701Is being burnt by Kafirs the necessary end of all frontier farms?
21701Is he likely to continue in that mind?
21701Is it very zore, boy?
21701Is n''t it an enjoyable thing to eat when one is hungry, eh?
21701Is zat enough?
21701It was a very tremendous yell, was n''t it, Dally?
21701My dear fellow,said Considine, with a sudden burst of candour,"I believe you are right, and I plead guilty; but then what can we do?
21701My father has been making his fortune for the last quarter of a century, and it''s not made yet.--Why did you choose the Cape?
21701My poor fellow,he said,"have you no means of redress?
21701No meat, child? 21701 No?"
21701Not bad,--eh?
21701Object? 21701 Of course I do; why do you doubt it?"
21701Oh, ma, how can you?
21701Our shoulders are broad enough, are they not? 21701 Peace is it, sir?
21701Scotch folk, are they?
21701So you like the study of French?
21701So you''re gaun to settle thereawa''?
21701Stephen Orpin,cried a sturdy sinner, in whose ears these words were preached,"do you_ know_ all that to be true?
21701Studied farmin''?
21701Talking of irrelevant matters, does any one know why Sandy Black and McTavish did not come with Groot Willem?
21701Tantalising, ai n''t it, sir?
21701They are well suited to their purpose nevertheless,said Hans;"besides, would it be wise to build fine houses for Kafirs to burn?"
21701Think of the prospect?
21701Was Mynheer English?
21701We are in search of the Scottish party,said the youth, turning to Sandy with a polite bow;"can you direct us to its whereabouts?"
21701Weel, weel, did ever''ee see the like o''that, noo?
21701Well, and what then?
21701Well, that''s just about it,was the answer;"how do you like that prospect?"
21701What brings you here, Bertha?
21701What did you say you were sowing?
21701What do you call wise treatment?
21701What do you mean, Hans?
21701What have the cattle done,he said testily,"that you should want them?
21701What have''ee putt i''the''buss?
21701What if I choose to pay no regard to the opinion of any one?
21701What is Mynheer''s name?
21701What is your name, and where do you come from?
21701What is your objection to this life, Mrs Merton?
21701What is''t, Jerry?
21701What more?
21701What shall I prepare, mother?
21701What''s all settled?
21701What''s that you''re after, boy?
21701What''s to be done?
21701What, Ruyter, is it you?
21701What? 21701 When did Orpin speak to him, and what did he say?"
21701Where are you going just now, Ruyter?
21701Where is your master''s house?
21701Where shall we go to seek for news?
21701Whereaboots is the brute?
21701Who''s gone?
21701Who''s that taking my name in vain?
21701Who?
21701Why did you send them off before I returned?
21701Why do n''t you Skyd- addle then?
21701Why do you ask such questions, Hintza?
21701Why do you like this sort of life, Mrs Brook?
21701Why do you think I am indifferent to the world''s happiness?
21701Why not go at''em at once?
21701Why not?
21701Why, Charlie, are you going to try your hand at hatching?
21701Why, w''at are them there?
21701Why, what''s the matter?
21701Why, where did you two fellows come from?
21701Why?
21701You know dat him''s a slave-- a_ real_ slave?
21701You look serious, Orpin; has anything gone wrong?
21701You never hear how him was brought up here?
21701You should be ver''glad de assagai did not stick you in de neck like von zow.--Is zat rain vich I feels in ze back of mine head?
21701You''ll come and see us some day, wo n''t you, Hans?
21701A man who goes a- shootin''with a fowlin''-piece or a Dutch gun must''ave some sort o''capacity for shootin''--mustn''t''e, sir?"
21701And now, as we''re nearing the camp, what is it to be-- silence?"
21701And tell me, what was the origin of the war which has just ended?"
21701Are there ony o''the big puggies in the Albany district?"
21701But being still too busy with the steaks to pursue the subject he merely added--"Does your father live near this?"
21701But tell me, Gertie, what do you think of the new life that is before you?"
21701But tell me, what of your family, Mr Brook?"
21701But what could he do-- alone and totally unarmed?
21701But what of those whose fortunes we have been following, during this period of peace and prosperity?
21701But who will rebuild the burned homesteads of this desolated land?
21701But why proceed?
21701But''ow if we should meet with a lion?"
21701Can you not complain to some one-- some magistrate?"
21701Can you speak from experience of this deliverance, this rest?"
21701Can you tell me where he lives?
21701Did any of you gentlemen happen to hear it?"
21701Do lions ever go by that name?"
21701Do n''t you see the pot''s about to bile over?"
21701Do you know anything of our past history?"
21701Do you know him, Hans?
21701Do you see the boks on that koppie?"
21701Do_ you_ understand it, Mr Black?"
21701Does it not resemble my life here?
21701Everything depends on how one looks at things.--What do_ you_ think, Mrs Scholtz?"
21701Has not God said,` Greater is he who ruleth his own spirit, than he who taketh a city?''
21701Here have we been for three years, digging and ploughing, raking and hoeing, carting and milking, churning and-- and-- and what the better are we now?
21701How came you to learn the language so perfectly?"
21701How many of you are at it?"
21701I am hungry_ now_, and it is not yet noon; what will be our condition if we wait till night for our dinner?"
21701I hope you do n''t object to me on that account?"
21701I was about to say, Is it not a fact that many of the other settlers are beginning to overcome their difficulties though you are not?
21701If so, we may find water there, who knows-- eh?
21701If the new life were behind me I might be able to answer, but how can I tell how I shall like what I do n''t know anything about?"
21701Is it not so?"
21701Is n''t it, Bob?"
21701Is that right?"
21701Is the pot ready?"
21701Is there_ no_ deliverance from sin?
21701Is this true?"
21701It is not finished, I think?"
21701It''s about time too, for we''ve got a deal to do-- haven''t we, sir?"
21701Just at that werry moment-- would you mind takin''your toe out o''my neck, Junkie?
21701May I ask what''ee want wi''us?"
21701Mischief, of course, but of what sort?
21701Much obleeged all the same, but I''ve got to prepare breakfast for our own party.--Goin''to begin plantin''soon?"
21701Next moment the muzzles were thrown up as they exclaimed in surprise--"Why, Dally, is it you?"
21701Not hurt, I hope?"
21701Now, what think you must be the feelings of the settlers towards these Kafirs and runaway robbers?--can_ they_ forgive?"
21701Of the smaller parties, those of Cock, Thornhill, Smith( what series of adventurous parties ever went forth without a"Smith''s party"?
21701Pointing to his wounds, he said,` Do you think I can forgive Jan Smit?''"
21701Rob,"he exclaimed,"that looks like something-- a bush, is it?
21701Ruyter''s face grew darker as he rejoined fiercely,"What de use of your laws if dey wo n''t work?
21701Sandy obeyed and shot the Kafir dead, then, turning round, said anxiously--"Are''ee stickit, sir?"
21701Sandy, who was a grave man of few words, though not without a touch of sly humour, replied,"Weel, so they are-- an''what than?"
21701Should he kill him outright?
21701Should he quietly bid him good morning and walk away?
21701Should he suddenly seize and throw him down?
21701The three brothers laughed, and John replied--"Trade?
21701There''s nothing like whisky to dry a wet skin, is there, Scotty?"
21701Was he rich?"
21701Was n''t it unlucky?"
21701Well, but, as I said before, is n''t it an astonishing coincidence?"
21701What could be worse?
21701What did they mean by Dutch courage?"
21701What do you think of the_ prospect_ before you?"
21701What else can you turn your hand to?"
21701What is yours?"
21701What more could a man wish?"
21701What more natural then that he should stay on from day to day, until he became almost one of themselves?
21701What say you to become a schoolmaster?
21701What say you?"
21701What then?
21701What was he to do?
21701What was it?"
21701Whom shall I pledge?"
21701Why are you surprised?"
21701Why should they fight?"
21701Will no one else go?"
21701Will you come?"
21701Will you join me?"
21701Will you?"
21701Wull mair o''the settlers be pairtin''frae us here?"
21701You belong to the Scotch party that goes to Baviaans River, I suppose?"
21701You wo n''t mind, I trust?"
21701You''re quite sure that you know the way, I suppose?"
21701above all, who will restore the lost lives?"
21701and why should my subjects be deprived of them?"
21701are not pumpkins and potatoes thriving pretty well, and gardens beginning to flourish?
21701exclaimed Gertie, with a flush;"are they here?"
21701exclaimed Jessie,"what is that?"
21701exclaimed its master,"what''s wrong with you?"
21701exclaimed the Hottentot fiercely,"what de use of complain?
21701have they not many herds of healthy cattle?
21701he added, turning to Hans,"that we had better inquire first at Dobson''s place?"
21701he at length heard the savage demand,"why should I spare them for an hour?"
21701how?
21701in which direction?
21701is all the fault on the side of the English?"
21701repeated Charlie, quoting the Dutch"Yes"of the other;"are you a Dutchman?"
21701repeated Dobson;"will nothing convince you?
21701said Considine, after half an hour''s silent devotion to the duty in hand.--"Why, where got you that?"
21701then he lost it?"
21701was the Kafir''s cool reply,"are they not my dogs?"
21701what d''you mean by_ that_?"
21701what do you mean?"
21701what do you mean?"
21701what_ have_ I done?"
21701when?
21701where are you?"
21701where?
21701where?
21701who will reimburse the ruined farmers?
21701why?"
21701without your suppers?"
55021Abram?
55021Alligator?
55021And as I did n''t suppose she would accept any other Indian--"You brought Coacoochee back with you?
55021And did you ever see such a change in so short a time? 55021 And do you trust the man whom you have just left?"
55021And me?
55021And who is the other, pray?
55021Are the warriors trained by Coacoochee to be told what they shall do, and what they shall not do, by a pack of Miccosouky dogs?
55021But I suppose you have come on business?
55021But supposing Coacoochee does not come? 55021 But what have white men got to do with this business?"
55021But who is the rascally beggar?
55021But why did n''t you bring him ashore? 55021 But,"said Talmus,"was it not one of the Iste- hatke who brought us these things?
55021Ca n''t I go too, colonel?
55021Ca n''t you guess, Anstice? 55021 Can it be true?
55021Can we trust him, Letty? 55021 Coacoochee, is it you?"
55021Danger?
55021Did n''t you say it must be a double wedding or none?
55021Did she recognize the white men?
55021Do n''t you count on me too, colonel? 55021 Do you believe that?
55021Do you promise for the sake of this maiden to strive with all your powers to attain the rank of a warrior? 55021 Do?
55021Does it take four of you to whip one Indian? 55021 Does my brother hear anything?"
55021Does my brother regard me so meanly as to think that to save my life alone, or to save a thousand lives such as mine, I would have signed?
55021Douglass captured and about to be killed? 55021 Douglass?
55021Have you brought Coacoochee back with you? 55021 He still lives?
55021How came you here? 55021 How can we?"
55021How do you know it was a ghost, and not a live man?
55021How is it possible for you to hear these things when I can hear nothing at all?
55021How is this? 55021 I say whar did you steal that dog, Injun?"
55021Is it true?
55021Is n''t it a pleasure to see her so happy?
55021Is there any way of finding out who these poor devils were?
55021Is thy man''s heart turned by thy captivity into that of Cho- fee[ the rabbit], and art thou become one who trembles at the sight of his own shadow? 55021 Must be niggers, then?"
55021No, we have n''t heard any news; what is it?
55021No?
55021Now, Mr. Injun, what have you got to say to that?
55021Sam Jones?
55021So you acknowledge that you hain''t got no pass, do you, Injun? 55021 WILEY THOMPSON, WHERE IS MY WIFE?"
55021Was n''t it, now? 55021 Was there no way for my brother to save his life but by signing the white man''s paper?"
55021Were you bound, blind- folded, or in any other way deprived of the use of your faculties?
55021What do you mean by the theatre?
55021What do you mean?
55021What do you mean?
55021What does it all mean?
55021What does this mean? 55021 What for?"
55021What has become of them, then?
55021What is awful? 55021 What is it, Coacoochee?
55021What was the cause of the firing I heard but a short while since? 55021 What were you doing there?"
55021What would you do in that case?
55021What''s your name?
55021Where are the other chiefs, and why have they not surrendered?
55021Where did you see it?
55021Who do you say is captured? 55021 Who owns him?"
55021Who was in command?
55021Who? 55021 Whose ghost do you think it was?"
55021Why have you not done this already? 55021 Will you, Coacoochee?
55021Would the white maiden take the hand of her who is of the Iste- lustee?
55021Yes, but may you not be mistaken? 55021 You do n''t mean Mr. Douglass, brother?"
55021You do n''t say so?
55021Ai n''t ye, now?"
55021And did n''t you know that poor Nita was wearing her heart out with suspense?"
55021And do n''t you suppose we know it, too, you confoundedly proud Seminole, you?"
55021And you''ll set up a nigger''s oath and an Injun''s oath agin that of a white man, will ye?
55021Are his warriors glad when they hear them?"
55021Are the white men so?
55021Are the words of Coacoochee good in the ears of the tribe?
55021Are the words of Coacoochee good in the ears of the white war- chief?"
55021Are we dogs that we should suffer this thing?
55021Are we to be attacked?
55021Are you not in equal, or even in greater, peril?
55021Are you really alive?
55021Are you willing to promise that from that time his lodge shall be thy lodge, his friends thy friends, and his enemies thy enemies?
55021Besides, it is too high for us to reach, and, even if we got outside, would we not fall again into the hands of the soldiers?"
55021Besides, was he not going into danger for her sake, and the sake of those most dear to her?
55021Boyd, I of course count on you to go with us?"
55021But are you certain that Coacoochee is dead?"
55021CHAPTER XIII"WILEY THOMPSON, WHERE IS MY WIFE?"
55021Ca n''t I go with you?"
55021Can all this be true?"
55021Canby?"
55021D''ye hear?"
55021Did Indian fight with Indian?
55021Did Nita find out the name of the other man?"
55021Did he continue to do this when he found that his weapons were no match for those of the white man?
55021Did n''t you suppose we wanted to see him?
55021Did you not hear me give my word to this youth that he should go in safety?
55021Do n''t you know the meaning of the word''gratitude''?
55021Do n''t you know?
55021Do you know what you are talking about?
55021Do you not realize your awful peril?
55021Do you promise, when that time comes, to take her to your lodge to be your squaw?
55021Does my brother now understand why I signed?"
55021Finally Osceola, apparently satisfied with what he saw, broke the silence, and said:"We are brothers?"
55021Had the savages been attacked by a party of whites?
55021Has he told us the truth?"
55021Has my brother won the heart of a pale- faced maiden?"
55021Have n''t you come for me?
55021Have you brought a token from her?"
55021He only asked:"Why should Coacoochee halt at the command of a white man?"
55021Here are two accounted for, but what has become of the other two?
55021How could such a thing be?
55021How dare you?
55021How dared you then even contemplate this outrage?
55021I am in time?"
55021I suppose you have heard the great news and are come out to verify it?"
55021I wonder if Osceola is among these Indians?"
55021I wonder, though, if that can be the secret of Irwin''s escape?"
55021If he could only obtain the position of guide to Major Dade''s little army, what would be easier than to deliver them into the hands of Coacoochee?
55021If it is a better land than this, as the white man tells us, why does he not go there himself and leave us alone?
55021If there is no peace, if the Seminole must fight, then who will fight harder or more bravely than Coacoochee?
55021If they do those things, why should not the Indian do them as well?
55021In the present instance how could Osceola have gained his liberty by any other means?
55021Is it a go?
55021Is it as a prisoner?
55021Is it not so?"
55021Is it well?"
55021Is it you?
55021Is n''t she?"
55021Is n''t that so, boy?"
55021Is that you?"
55021Is there nothing left but to fight and die?
55021Is this the way you continue a private quarrel and gratify your devilish instincts?
55021Might not the same fate overtake her most dear to him and hundreds of others with her?
55021Not going back?"
55021Now, Mr. Douglass, since you are so happily restored to us, please tell me what to expect in yonder den of swamp devils?
55021Of course you gained the victory, though?"
55021Or have you decided to join the winning side, and become an ally of the Americans?"
55021Or shall we meet them in battle and prove to them that our words were not empty boastings, when we said the Seminole would fight for his land?
55021Perhaps, sir, you can give us the desired information?"
55021Rather different from the idea prevailing in most white communities, is it not?"
55021Shall we allow them to pass by us and join their friends?
55021Should she still attempt to escape, or should she trust the youth who had just announced himself to be Coacoochee, the friend of her brother?
55021That we left so many of them alive?
55021The first of these struck like a blow:"Are you prepared to deliver up at once all negroes taken from citizens?
55021The white man puts a spy to death; why should not the Indian?
55021Then there came a rustle beside the motionless figure and a whispered:"Louis, my brother?"
55021They recognized it as the signal of Coacoochee; but where was he?
55021Under the circumstances, do n''t you think it will be just as well not to tell Anstice what we have seen?"
55021Was Salano''s hatred of the young Indian whom he had so cruelly wronged so bitter that he was determined to seize every opportunity for killing him?
55021Was her brother really wounded, and was she being taken to him, or were those only plausible tales to lure her away beyond chance of rescue?
55021Was not one white man equal to five Indians at any time?
55021What argument, though, was it you used at the last?
55021What could have put such a belief into your mind?"
55021What could it mean?
55021What do you think you hear?"
55021What does this mean?"
55021What force opposes us?
55021What has happened?"
55021What has happened?"
55021What have you done with her?
55021What is it, dear?"
55021What is the meaning of this ominous silence?"
55021What is to become of them?
55021What now shall be done?
55021What possible interest can your guest have in Coacoochee?"
55021What should she do?
55021What would a soldier''s life be without it?
55021What, then, is thy opinion concerning this tale of wrong and outrage?"
55021When they returned to the outer room, Douglass asked curiously:"What does it mean, Boyd?
55021Where can they go?
55021Where could she find a braver or more gallant protector than Coacoochee?
55021Where have you been?"
55021Where is my wife?
55021Where were the whites she had so confidently expected to see?
55021Which way should she turn?
55021Who are those yonder?"
55021Who can it be?"
55021Why are you here instead of safe in Augustine as we thought?
55021Why did I do it?"
55021Why do n''t you tell us?"
55021Why, the girl is as white as Anstice herself, and even if she were not, do you suppose that would make any difference?
55021Wiley Thompson, where is my wife?"
55021Will my sister keep its secret hidden deep in her own bosom, where no enemy of the Iste- chatte shall ever find it?"
55021Will my white brother go with me?"
55021Will you come with us, Boyd?"
55021Will you do this thing for me?"
55021Will you go with me and see him?
55021Will you go with me, and exert your influence to induce him to come in?"
55021With a feeble shout of joy at sight of his friend, the sufferer exclaimed tremulously:"Is she safe?
55021Wo n''t Anstice be pleased, though?
55021Wo n''t you please arrange it, like a dear man?"
55021Wo n''t you shake hands with me in token of friendship?"
55021Wo n''t you--?"
55021Would it not be better for them to incur the dangers and sufferings of war rather than those of slavery?
55021Would the brave girl succeed in saving the life of her lover?
55021Would you mind, sir, if I followed this new trail a few miles, not to exceed five?
55021You''re a nice, respectable, chummy sort of a chap, ai n''t you, now?
55021and maybe bring help to your brother?
55021and what has happened, dear, to frighten you?"
55021by your rascally intrusion into other folk''s privacy?"
55021exclaimed Boyd,"are you the sentry who disappeared last night?"
55021here is their camp now; but I say, Coacoochee, who is that white girl sitting among the Indian women?
55021if you have killed yourself, what will it all amount to?
55021one would say reproachfully,"yo wouldn''tink ob astin''a ole ooman to leab behine de onliest fedder bed she done got?"
55021or must he die like a dog, without ever again treading the soil of his native land?
55021to hunt game for her?
55021to love her and bear with her until the Great Spirit shall call you to dwell with him in the Happy Hunting- grounds?"
55021to protect her with your life from harm?
55021to see that she suffers not from hunger?
55021whar did you steal that dog?"
55021why are you here?
55021why did I do it?
55021you ai n''t going to start along so soon, be ye?"
46091Whar''s Paul?

46091Ai n''t that a cure for old age; it kinder lifts the heart up, do n''t it?

46091George, dear George, do you love me?
46091George, do you see that hand you hold?
46091Good day, Mr. Thibodeaux-- shall we drive down that way?
46091Has not my dear aunt forgotten it-- she who had the most right to remember it?
46091Have I slept upon the benefits I received, and never saw, never felt, never knew that I was forgetful and ungrateful?
46091Have n''t you worked like a horse?
46091He loves me-- what of that?
46091How are we sure the boy is dead at all?

8000And what must be the verdict of future generations, as they peruse the history of these wrongs and outrages?
8000And yet, even now, the_ Times_ asks the question--"How are the people to be fed and employed?
8000Are Irishmen inferior in understanding?
8000Are not the most laborious of all labourers in London and New York, Irishmen?
8000Are these things to be found in India?
8000Are we to believe,"says he,"the calumny that the Irish are lazy and wo n''t work?
8000But on whom must rest the responsibility for a state of things so hideous as that here exhibited?
8000But think you the poor wretch had committed a heinous offence, and had been convicted thereof, and sentenced to the lash?
8000But why extend the catalogue?
8000But, electors, how does it operate on you?
8000Can such a system be a natural one?
8000Can such scenes be paralleled in Siberia or Caffraria?"
8000Can the people of this country become parties to a system like this-- one that looks to cheapening labour every where?
8000Can they be found in Ireland, in Turkey, or in Portugal?
8000Can they be parties to any system that can be maintained only on the condition of"an abundant and cheap supply of labour?"
8000Could there be a greater tyranny than this?
8000Do the planters profit by good crops?
8000Do they profit by improvements in the transportation of their commodity?
8000Does Demerara stand alone in its misfortune?
8000Does she desire that manufactures shall rise, that towns shall grow, and that the land shall acquire value?
8000Does the reader remember some gorgeous sheets of colored gelatine in the French department of the Great Exhibition?
8000HOW CAN SLAVERY BE EXTINGUISHED?
8000HOW CAN SLAVERY BE EXTINGUISHED?
8000Have we really a free constitution?
8000How can slavery be extinguished, and man be made free?
8000How can this be done for Ireland?
8000How can this be done?
8000How could it be otherwise in a country in which"labourers, whether well off or not, never attempt to be better?
8000How do you like it?
8000How does it work?
8000How is this to be proved?
8000How shall slavery be abolished?
8000How was all this done?
8000How, indeed, could it be otherwise than that the reward of labour should rise?
8000How?
8000I repeat, how does this operate on you?
8000If he could do this would he not become a freer man?
8000If, under these circumstances, King Ferdinand is enabled to play the tyrant, upon whom rests the blame?
8000In what country of civilized Europe has the peasant so light a burden to bear?
8000Is Irish human nature different from other human nature?
8000Is it not clear that the labour of converting the cotton into yarn is not one- quarter as great as was the labour of raising, the cotton itself?
8000Is it not indeed beginning at the wrong end to try and reform men, after they have become criminals?
8000Is it the labourer?
8000Is it the landlord?
8000Is there no mode of escaping from this thraldom?
8000Looking on them, the doubt rose in my mind, am I in a civilized country?
8000Must our children always be deprived of schools?
8000Must our women always labour in the field?
8000Must the slave trade last for ever?
8000Must we continue for ever to raise negroes for sale?
8000Need we wonder at the poverty of India when thus taxed, while deprived of all power even to manure its land?
8000Or to Portugal, the weakest and most wretched of the communities of Europe?
8000Or, can they be parties to an alliance that, wherever it is found, so far cheapens man as to render him a profitable article for the export trade?
8000Sell what?
8000Shall we look to Ireland for the proof?
8000The ground had already been freshly manured by sea- weeds, but the village, where was it?
8000The people of Austria and Hungary are weak, but has England ever tried to render them strong to obtain their freedom?
8000The people of China are weak, but does the consumption of opium to the extent of forty millions of dollars a year tend to strengthen them?
8000The reader may determine for himself if this is not a fair picture of the cotton trade?
8000Then he adds,''Do you see those three hundred men who have just walked out?
8000They often say,''You are not treating that child properly; it will not live:_ is it in the club_?''
8000This is all most true, but what does it prove in regard to British policy?
8000This is quite true; but why did these men come?
8000This is slavery, and under such a system how could the wretched people be other than slaves?
8000This system is to be carried out by producing"unlimited competition"and in what is it to exist?
8000To this what would be the reply?
8000To whom?
8000Turkey is weak; and why is it so?
8000Under such circumstances, how could your infant establishments hope to exist?
8000Upon the planter?
8000Upon whom, now, must rest the responsibility for such a state of things as is here exhibited?
8000We are now frequently invited to an alliance with Great Britain, and for what?
8000We are told of his designs upon Turkey-- but what have the_ people_ of that country to lose by incorporation within the Russian Empire?
8000Well is it asked by Dr. Allen, in his pamphlet on"The Opium Trade,"( Lowell, 1853,)"Can such an unrighteous course in a nation always prosper?"
8000What are the districts which together form the county of Berbice?
8000What art turning thy head for?
8000What commercial partnership, what industrious household exhibits so direct an exchange of services?
8000What inducement can she, then, offer in consideration of an alliance with her?
8000What is the result?
8000What more horrible symptom of moral degradation can be conceived?
8000What professed friend of the people can boast to have done more, or yet so much, for so many millions of men?"
8000What slavery can be worse than this?
8000What was to be done?
8000What worse slavery can we have than this?
8000What, however, becomes of the poor free negro?
8000What, however, finally becomes of the corn?
8000What, in the meanwhile, became of him?
8000What, then,_ are_ the laws under which man"lives and moves and has his being?"
8000Where, however, is it?
8000Where, however, lies the fault of all this?
8000Where?
8000Who is it, however, that is to furnish this capital?
8000Who profits by the reduction of cost of transportation and conversion?
8000Who''ll work?
8000Who, then, are our natural allies?
8000Who, then, are responsible for the subjection of the Spanish people?
8000Why did not the owners of property reside on their estates?
8000Why do they not?
8000Why does she so?
8000Why is it so?
8000Why is it that men in Africa sell their fellow- men to be transported to Cuba or Brazil?
8000Why is it that the light and easily transported spindle and loom are not placed in and about the cotton fields?
8000Why is this so?
8000Why is this?
8000Why should Virginia import potatoes and hay, cheese and butter?
8000Why was it so?
8000Why, however, did this absenteeism exist?
8000Why, however, he will probably ask, is it that they do so waste it?
8000Why?
8000Why?_ Labour is the creator of all wealth.
8000Will this tend to strengthen, or to free, the Chinese people?
8000With such a diet, how much better is he than an Irishman-- a Celt, as he calls him?
8000With such positive and immediate evils to contend with, what wonder that so many needlewomen take''the wages of sin?''"
8000Would he not approach the miller, cap in hand, and would not the latter receive him with his hat on his head?
8000Would not every one be anxious to anticipate the apprehended fall of prices by being early in the market?
8000Would not freights be high?
8000Would not storage be high?
8000Would not the export of Coolies cease if man could be rendered more, valuable in India than in Jamaica or Guiana?
8000Would not the farmer, on his arrival in Rochester, find that every store- house was filled to overflowing?
8000Would not the farmers find themselves to be mere slaves to the owners of a small quantity of mill machinery?
8000Would not the roads be covered with wagons whenever they were passable, and even at times when, they were almost impassable?
8000[ 43] How indeed can it be otherwise?
8000_ One_ of these traders asked her what was the matter with her eyes?
8000art blind?
8000how does it affect home trade, the shopkeeper, poor''s rate, and taxation?

51855A nice guy?
51855Against ships of the Confederation, armed with God alone knows what after better than one hundred years of progress? 51855 Albin Cendar?"
51855Already been done?
51855Am I in your way?
51855And I said to myself, I said:''What can a person as grim as all that be doing at a Social as gay as all this?'' 51855 And if they do?"
51855And that is?
51855And then tomorrow what do you do?
51855And what are we teaching them? 51855 And what do you get out of it?
51855And you had to invite them...."Invite?
51855And you?
51855And-- Greta, why did you have to be there, right by the door, with that strange type-- as if it had been set up for her? 51855 Are masters here?"
51855Are n''t you?
51855Are you afraid of me, too?
51855Are you all right?
51855Are you troubled?
51855At a party?
51855At nine o''clock?
51855At their expense?
51855But that''s the point-- don''t you see?
51855But you said it yourself: what can we do? 51855 But you will not tell the masters what I say?"
51855Can I learn without questions?
51855Did you ever hear of a child who went to school, regularly, eagerly, without some sort of force being applied, physical, mental or moral? 51855 Die?"
51855Do they find the one who escapes?
51855Do you come here often?
51855Do you know what happens with Marvor?
51855Do you know why there is n''t?
51855Do you like what you''re doing? 51855 Do you think you can be more accurate than a tape record?"
51855Do you understand?
51855Do you want to be a master?
51855Dodd,Albin said, in what was almost a worried tone,"what the hell are you talking about?"
51855Does a brother harm a brother?
51855Does a brother refuse help to a brother?
51855Does the plant grow when a master tells it?
51855Does the tree bud when a master tells it? 51855 Enter remarks in the permanent records?
51855Give up your job? 51855 Go to parties, drink, meet a girl, forget, go right on forgetting, and then one day you wake up and it''s over and what have you got?"
51855Go?
51855Got to put up with it, because what can you do about it?
51855Greta, who was he, anyhow?
51855Have you got that, Norma?
51855Having a good time?
51855Him?
51855How about it, Dodd?
51855How can you give me what I want when I do n''t know what I want? 51855 How did you find out about a party in Psych division?"
51855How is he chosen?
51855How would you like it if there were no masters? 51855 How''d you like it if they got some of them?
51855I give up a job here in the Buildings, and then what do I do? 51855 I suppose I''ve gone too far now, have n''t I?"
51855I would n''t know,she said, and then( had she made a decision?
51855I''m here, are n''t I? 51855 I-- well, there is n''t anything I can do about it, is there?"
51855If I do what I want, am I a master?
51855If we leave here,Dara said,"why think of a smaller rule?"
51855If you are in the field,he said,"why do you come here?
51855Is it good to learn?
51855Is that an excuse?
51855Is there something wrong?
51855Is this a place for sleeping?
51855Is this what you tell me?
51855It is slavery, is n''t it?
51855Marvor,he said,"do you question the masters?"
51855May we take it that this is a sample of the work you have been doing?
51855No?
51855Oh, Albin?
51855Oh?
51855Plants?
51855Psych? 51855 Shall we get on with it, then?"
51855The female?
51855The original notion?
51855Then there is nothing to be done?
51855Then why do the masters not push the buttons?
51855Undecided?
51855Very well, then, Mr. Dodd,the girl said-- she_ would n''t_ go along with polite forms--"am I in your way?
51855We''re entitled to have quiet little gatherings, right? 51855 Well, then,"the old woman asked,"has anyone except myself understood them?"
51855Well, you--"Downgrade the persons who were there?
51855Well?
51855Well?
51855Well?
51855What am I going to do?
51855What did you do before we came?
51855What difference do labels make?
51855What do you mean, good care of him?
51855What do you work at, Johnny?
51855What happened?
51855What happens?
51855What is a slave?
51855What is important?
51855What is it?
51855What is this?
51855What is training?
51855What kind of favor?
51855What place is this?
51855What place is this?
51855What''s that?
51855What''s wrong?
51855What''s your name?
51855What''s your name?
51855What?
51855What?... 51855 Where are elders?"
51855Where is Marvor? 51855 Where is it?"
51855Where is this place?
51855Where is this?
51855Where may I learn the others?
51855Who are we to play God for them?
51855Who cares about them?
51855Who is there?
51855Who knows? 51855 Who''s there?"
51855Why did you pick me?
51855Why did you stop me, out of all those people?
51855Why does the room move?
51855Why is it right?
51855Would you like to have a lesson in psychology?
51855Would you like to learn a little, just a little, about your fellow man?
51855Yes, but--"Did you ever hear of a child who liked school, Johnny?
51855Yes?
51855Yes?
51855You a friend of Cendar''s?
51855You are to work with me?
51855You have n''t been to many Socials, have you? 51855 You think I like living this way, do n''t you?"
51855You think it''s terrible, do n''t you?
51855You wanted reactions, did n''t you?
51855You will go and join them?
51855You''re Cadnan?
51855You''re going to--"Yes?
51855You''re just backing down, and there''s no need for that yet--"You think not?
51855***** TO: Fred Ramsbotham FROM: John Harrison RE: Your memo May 15 Have you never heard of AMP burning them, you silly damn fool?
518553. Who helps the explorers dig up the metal?
51855A friend of Cendar''s-- you know Cendar, do n''t you?"
51855After all, you''re people, are n''t you?
51855After some thought Cadnan asked:"Who can be his own master?
51855After whom was it named?
51855Agreed?"
51855Albin said:"What?"
51855All right?"
51855All right?"
51855Am I right?
51855Am I right?
51855And Norma... what had happened to her?
51855And do you come here often?"
51855And how do you think they liked that?
51855And how''d you like that, Dodd?
51855And now what?"
51855And then:"Tell me, Cadnan, do they all think like you?"
51855And who could tell what might happen later?
51855And who knows what goes on behind the drapes?"
51855And who were the slaves?
51855And you''re Johnny-- right?"
51855Another shouted:"Where are the masters?
51855Are n''t they funny- looking?
51855Because the letters are from the people who vote for him, you see?
51855Better than being out of work?
51855But here, in the jungle, there was no chain( and would the trees obey when their time came?)
51855But how would you like to work for yourself instead?"
51855But that''s uneconomic, see?
51855But the details do n''t matter, do they, Gwen dear?
51855But what good does it do them?"
51855But what was one more law now?
51855But what''s cruel about it, friends?
51855But you understand, do n''t you?
51855But-- given the setup, what else could there be?
51855Cadnan said:"If the masters see us?"
51855Cadnan thought privately that such an idea was silly, almost too silly for words: how could a person lead himself?
51855Cadnan told him of the work, the food, the shelter...."And what is a master?"
51855Did I look at you as if you were a murderer of small children?"
51855Did you stop to think why I wanted to talk it out to you?"
51855Do those creatures want to be liberated?
51855Do you know what we''ve got here?"
51855Do you like what I''m doing-- what the whole arrangement is here?"
51855Do you see it that way?
51855Do you think they liked being free and equal?
51855Do you want these green creatures voting in the same assemblies as yours?
51855Dodd knew he would hear, and did hear, sounds:"What''s wrong with_ you_ this morning?"
51855Dodd, maybe you''d like to see them starve?
51855Go out and starve in the jungle?
51855Has anyone but me read the latest reports from the Confederation?"
51855He heard his own voice, making sounds that had never been words, crying for-- for what?
51855He then called to the boy,''What would you give my lad, to know about the Argonauts?''
51855He was a slave, and that was good-- but once outside where would he find work, or food, or a master?
51855Help, peace, understanding?
51855How about that, kid?"
51855How do I feel happy when I know this?"
51855How is this bad?"
51855How would you like that?"
51855I mean, no pay and nothing at all but work, work, work until they absolutely drop?
51855I mean, what can any one person do?
51855I say:"Can freedom make me feel happy?"
51855I say:"Do not our old masters have freedom?"
51855I take it there''s no argument about that-- given the figures and reports we now have?"
51855If the chain of obedience was broken would the trees refuse to obey, in their turn?
51855If you really have an idea?
51855If you''re content with jargon, and we know all the jargon, do n''t we?"
51855In this barrage of novelty, who could make any statement certain?
51855Is it like liberating you and me, who know what''s what and can think and make decisions?
51855Is that what you mean?"
51855Is this what you call chosen?"
51855It felt hopeless and dragged- out and like something you''d never want to go through again, am I right?
51855Just letters?
51855Just what am I supposed to have in mind?"
51855Just what would you pick?
51855Just-- beings, able to do what they want to do... what makes me any better than the Alberts, anyhow?"
51855Let''s get together for a talk-- and what''s with the high- sounding guff?
51855Like in the olden times?
51855Look-- what can you lose?
51855MRS. B.: Do you really think it''s going to work?
51855MRS. B.: How can you be sure of a thing like that?
51855MRS. B.: Letters?
51855MRS. B.: What are they working at?
51855MRS. B.: What difference does that make?
51855MRS. B.: What have you been doing?
51855MRS. B.: Why are they let, then?
51855MRS. B.: Yes, dear, but what at?
51855MRS. B.: You mean collecting money?
51855MRS. BRANDON: Slaves?
51855MRS. BRANDON: What do you mean, do n''t get paid?
51855MRS. G.: Do n''t you think it''s right, for these poor beings?
51855MRS. G.: If a Senator gets enough letters, he has to do something, does n''t he?
51855MRS. G.: Who, the people with guns?
51855Me, I think it''s damn silly: with the plants all around here, what''s the sense of growing more?
51855Norma''s voice said:"Escape?"
51855Now, what have you been doing?
51855One of the other elders said:"You bring a new one to us?"
51855Only people, just you and your people, living your own lives and making your own decisions?
51855Or that, having elected him, they''ll follow him along the best paths?"
51855Or these memos, for instance?
51855Prevent promotion?
51855Ramsbotham RE: Your memo May 15 Have you never heard of the Confederation impounding records?
51855Right?
51855Right?"
51855Right?"
51855Right?"
51855She had to understand...."What do I say that is wrong?
51855She pushed it twice and a voice said:"What happened?"
51855So where would you like to be?
51855Sometimes he had told himself to be more out- going, to meet more women-- but, then, how did a man meet women?
51855Soon she would stop, and he could leave, and.... And?
51855The question made Cadnan uncomfortable: who knew, for certain, what was good?
51855Then it must be-- but what can you do, after all?
51855Then she asked:"At present?"
51855They all talk about equality, friends, and you know what equality is?
51855They need help, do n''t they?
51855This was Dr. Haenlingen-- and how did you talk to Dr. Haenlingen?
51855To send them?
51855Unbelievingly, Willis echoed:"Pray?"
51855Understand?"
51855Was there?
51855Well, sir, those servants got themselves liberated, and do you think they liked it?
51855What difference does it make?
51855What do they do?
51855What do you want to know for?"
51855What does she want with parties?
51855What else is there?"
51855What guarantees have you got that the clan will elect the best possible leader?
51855What is so valuable about Fruyling''s World?
51855What makes anybody better than anybody else?"
51855What of the others?"
51855What other choice have you got?"
51855What rumors?"
51855What was it Norma had said?
51855What would you like to do?"
51855Where is work?"
51855Why can I not do what I want to do?"
51855Why do n''t they do something about it, then, the ones that are like that?
51855Why do they help?
51855Why do they tell us what to do?"
51855Why is Fruyling''s World called by that name?
51855Why not say what you mean?
51855Why should it?
51855Willis said:"What?"
51855You do n''t like being here, do you?
51855You do n''t stage a rebellion against food, do you?"
51855You do n''t want to act hastily, friends, now do you?
51855You have to get paid when you work, do n''t you?
51855You have-- well, you have got mates, have n''t you?
51855You just listen to what I tell you-- got that?"
51855You know what being free meant for them?
51855You sound sore about something: what?
51855You understand?"
51855You want to be left alone to brood, right?"
51855You?"
51855_ Ich kann nicht anders...._""What?"
52782''Hello,''says I,''when did you git in? 52782 About what matter?"
52782Ah, you''re finding our boy out, eh?
52782Ai n''t you going for to make some sorter effort to git your hosses out of the field?
52782Ai n''t you got no sense? 52782 All the way through the dark for that?
52782And so this is Mr. Simmons, the famous negro hunter?
52782And so you did n''t catch him; and your fine dogs are finer now than they ever were?
52782And then what?
52782And what was you doing all that time?
52782And what wonderful person will do this for you, my boy?
52782And when are you going home to your master?
52782Are you still in the woods, Aaron?
52782But if we find them, Son of Ben Ali?
52782But what was the nigger doing at your place?
52782But, Colonel, if he''s that, what do you want him caught for?
52782But, Colonel,drawled Mr. Simmons,"what under the sun ever got the idee in your head that Addison Abercrombie_ is_ harboring your nigger?"
52782But, Colonel,remonstrated Mr. Jim Simmons,"did n''t you send for me?
52782By what means did you know that the horse had been left without food and water?
52782Can you pass them here?
52782Can you walk, Master?
52782Dat ar Aaron had um atter''i m, an''what''d he do?
52782Den how come I ca n''t fool dem ar dogs?
52782Did I say that? 52782 Did anybody cross from the other side this morning?"
52782Did he go into the cabins?
52782Did n''t you hear him when he butted me?
52782Did you fellows see It?
52782Did you notice,said the young man who was first to see the apparition,"that the Thing that was riding the Thing had no head?"
52782Do n''t he open on track?
52782Do n''t you know dey done foun''out whar you stays at? 52782 Do n''t you know what a runaway is?
52782Do you think you''d''a''caught him, Colonel, taking into account all the circumstances and things?
52782Ear- marks? 52782 Got who?"
52782Have you ever paid Abercrombie?
52782Have you ever visited that country?
52782Have you seen a pistol lying loose anywhere around here?
52782Here?
52782Honey, ai n''t it de trufe?

52782How long have you been standing here?
52782How you know?
52782Hurt much, Master?
52782I charged you interest, did n''t I, Simmons?
52782I did n''t say I was going to catch him, did I?
52782I did n''t say he could n''t get away from my dogs, did I?
52782I''d git de meat-- but dey mout ketch''i m, an''den what''d I look like?
52782If they were after the runaway, what on earth did he mean by going in this direction?
52782Is anybody ever hear de beat er dat? 52782 Is dat Aaron?"
52782Is that Sound?
52782Is that so?
52782Is that so?
52782Is that so?
52782Jim Simmons? 52782 Jimmy, you did n''t go and apologize to that old buzzard for what I said, did you?"
52782Kin you handle dish yer paddle? 52782 Man, ai n''t you tired?"
52782Man, what you think?
52782May I ask the old man there a few questions?
52782Me? 52782 Me?
52782Me?
52782Mine? 52782 Nothing?"
52782Of course they are-- how can they help themselves?
52782Of course you believed in the country next door to the world?
52782Oh, have you been admitted to the sanctum?
52782On what bank, Gossett?
52782Only three, Son of Ben Ali? 52782 Shall I go too?"
52782Shall I have Timoleon put in the new stable to- night?
52782Shall I ride him down, Son of Ben Ali?
52782Shall I use a club on you, White Grunter? 52782 Sho nuff?"
52782Suh?
52782Supposing you had,suggested Mr. Simmons,"would you''a''done it?
52782That you, Terrell?
52782The child with the crutches?
52782The missing boat? 52782 Then that''s the reason you think Abercrombie ai n''t harboring my nigger?"
52782Up or down?
52782Was a bateau missing from this side this morning?
52782Was anybody with you in the bateau when you went down the river this morning?
52782Was he in that one?
52782Well?
52782Were the bloodhounds after him?
52782Were you hunting the runaway?
52782Whar yo''huffs? 52782 What Aaron done done?"

52782Where is your runaway? 52782 Where''s my pistol?"
52782Where''s the ford?
52782Whereabouts is that country?
52782Which way did It go?
52782Which way did he go, Uncle Jake?
52782White er blue?

52782Who? 52782 Who?"
52782Why did you come?
52782Why, confound it, do n''t you know this horse is as wild as a buck? 52782 Whyn''t you go in an''see whether Aaron was in there?"
52782Would you teach me?
52782Wuz you, sho nuff?
52782Yes, ai n''t that Gossett?
52782Yes, where?
52782You are still anxious to punish the poor man who was hurt by the horse?
52782You gwine dar to Gossett''s? 52782 You know that new school teacher at Abercrombie''s?"
52782You wish what?
52782You''ve saved your$ 30, hain''t you?
52782You? 52782 Your runaway?
52782A runaway sitting by his side and driving a fractious and easily frightened horse without bit or bridle?
52782A''on gwine in dar en put dat ar hoss up?
52782Ai n''t you coming?
52782Am I a horse to be ridden?
52782An''whar de lines?
52782And more than that: do n''t I know from my own niggers that the yaller rapscallion comes here every chance he gets?
52782And the reply was,"Well, why not?"
52782And was it truly true that he had ever worn a shoe as small as that?
52782And who''s going to hurt me, pap?"
52782And why did Susy''s Sam hang back and want to turn his mule around before he had finished the furrow?
52782And why should he come whirling back at dusk,--a red cloud of dust rising beneath the Gray Pony''s feet?
52782Are you fixing to have me killed?
52782But did Aaron have the same power over his own master?
52782But what difference did that make?
52782But what is it to be touched?
52782But where?
52782Ca n''t you put him in his stable?"
52782Ca n''t you talk?
52782Could it be that by some noiseless shifting of the scenery he was even now in the country next door to the world?
52782De speckled pullet hollered shoo ter hawk, but what good did dat do?"
52782Did he know the paths?
52782Did n''t Aaron belong to Chunky Riley''s master?
52782Did n''t he double and turn and go back the way he came, to be caught and killed on dry land?
52782Did n''t he have the Simmons nigger- dogs after him that very day?
52782Did n''t his master try to catch him?
52782Did n''t the Colonel send one of his nigger women to the quarters on the Abercrombie plantation?
52782Did n''t the woman say she had seen the runaway?
52782Did n''t you buy him and pay your money down for him?
52782Did n''t you say,''Glad to see you, Simmons; walk right in and make yourself at home''?
52782Do n''t you know dey er gwine ter hunt you in de mornin''?
52782Do n''t you know dey got de dogs dar?
52782Do n''t you know he''ll ketch you ef you do dat?
52782Do n''t you know some er de niggers''ll see you-- an''maybe de overseer?
52782Do n''t you know you ca n''t git away fum dem dogs fer ter save yo''life?"
52782Do n''t you reckon you could tell when anybody was trying to insult you?
52782Do n''t you think it''s cunning?"
52782Do n''t you want him out of the woods?
52782Do n''t you want ter b''long ter Sally Ward?"
52782Do you blame me, Colonel?"
52782Do you keep him in a box and permit only your best friends to peep at him occasionally?"
52782Ear- marks?
52782Ef I squeeze too tight, des say de word;"and then,"Whar we gwine, honey?
52782Fer catching the nigger?
52782Fullalove?"
52782Git him out, did I say?
52782Had he seen the horses?
52782Has he escaped?"
52782Have stray dogs crept under the door?
52782He felt that he and his father had been wronged by some one, he could n''t say who, but not by the runaway, for what was a"nigger,"anyhow?
52782He jumped as if he had heard the report of a gun, and cried out in a tone of alarm:--"Who flung dat rock?
52782He knew by the scent of the cigar that the voices he heard belonged to white men: but who were they?
52782Him harbor niggers?
52782Hit''s some trouble ter git de corn off''n de cob, but spozen dey want no corn on de cob, what den?"
52782How am I to do it?"
52782How come dey ai n''t no niggers but de Gossett niggers in de woods?
52782How come you got ter go up de river?"
52782How come you ter know''bout de missin''boat?"
52782How could this be?
52782How did Aaron know that the horse had gone without water and food?
52782How did he know?
52782How did the Swamp know?
52782I tried to make the hoss stand, but he would n''t, and, just then, what should I see but two great big wildcats trying to sneak up on me?
52782I wonder if he''s taken up over here?
52782I''m so small, and-- and so crippled, you know, nobody would ever think I had a runaway?"
52782If Aaron really had any influence over his own master, why did n''t he stay at home instead of going into the woods?
52782If it was too late for him to learn the language of the animals, how could he hope to interpret the prophecies of the constellations?
52782If we find them, shall I use my teeth?"
52782Is anybody ever see de beat er dat?
52782Is that it?"
52782Is we dat close?"
52782Jimmy do n''t owe you nothin'', does he?"
52782Man, who is you?"
52782Marster, how in de name er goodness kin you drive dish yer hoss widout bridle er lines?"
52782May I examine your neck to see what can be done?"
52782Me?"
52782Now what do you pay me fer?
52782Now, how come dat?
52782Now, if he was n''t a nigger what was he trying to play nigger for?
52782Now, was n''t he wise for his age?
52782Now, where does he go?"
52782Oh, is n''t there some one to hear me?"
52782Once there, was there a hound that would venture to take a bath with him?
52782Saddle''em by sun- up?
52782Says he,''Will you please, sir, give me as much as a spoonful of low- wines for to rub on my legs?''
52782Shall I make bacon of you?
52782She''s a scorcher, ai n''t she?"
52782Smoke without fire?
52782Suppose that some quagmire or other in that there swamp has gone and got up a ruction on its own hook?
52782That is, if Aaron could n''t call the elements to his aid-- but suppose he could?
52782Was he following the rolling echoes?
52782Was he listening?
52782Was it Mr. Coon or Cousin Coon?
52782Was it for this,--for this,--her darling child had been born?
52782Was it indeed true?
52782Was it the runaway''s intention to jump suddenly from the buggy and strike the horse with the whip?
52782Was n''t he a runaway?
52782Was n''t there a snap and a snarl when the partridge- pea vine caught his foot?
52782Was n''t there a splash and a splutter as he ran into the quagmire?
52782Was one of the bateaux missing this morning?"
52782Well, then, why did n''t his master keep Aaron while he had him in the buggy?
52782Were n''t the chances ten to one that when she saw him she told him that Simmons would be after him in the morning?
52782Whar you say de key is?"
52782What about foxfire?
52782What am I that my food should be thrown at me through the cracks?
52782What am I to do to- day?"
52782What are you doing now?"
52782What could the Little Master want at this early hour?
52782What could the rest hope for if so fierce a creature as the White Pig could be disposed of in this fashion?
52782What demon was this that had seized the White Grunter and was carrying him off?
52782What does that mean?"
52782What have you done with your hosses?"
52782What living and moving creetur could build a fire in that thicket?
52782What man am I to carry, Son of Ben Ali?"
52782What then?
52782What then?
52782What was he up to?
52782What was the rider''s errand?
52782What was this going on right before his eyes?
52782What yo''name, honey?"
52782What''d I do out dar by myse''f at night?
52782What''s to hinder you?
52782What, then, was to be done?
52782When did you come to like me so well?"
52782When everything was ready, the question arose, how was the horse to be removed to his new quarters?
52782When the time comes for the cart I shall have-- what do you call it?"
52782Where did the nigger go?
52782Where''ve you been?"
52782Who are you, anyhow?"
52782Who else would dare to hurt him, or even threaten to hurt him?
52782Who is dat?
52782Who knows?
52782Who stopped him?"
52782Who talked of turns where the Little Master was concerned?
52782Who''s going to know where the fire is?"
52782Who, then, but Abercrombie?
52782Why could n''t the track dogs catch him?
52782Why did he sit still and allow the runaway to go back to the woods?
52782Why not stay here with me to- morrow, and the next day?"
52782Why should I doubt your word?"
52782Why should he go skimming along the red road at day dawn?
52782Why, then, should a thin but steady stream of blue smoke be constantly rising upwards from the centre of Spivey''s Canebrake?
52782Why, what on the face of the earth do you mean?
52782Why?
52782Why?
52782Why?
52782Will dey ketch you ef I tell?"
52782Would Mr. Coon of the Swamp ever be caught on dry land?
52782Would she hasten it?
52782You ca n''t help seeing what''s right at you, can you?"
52782You reckon he gwine ter foller you ter de landin''en den turn right''roun''in his tracks en go back?"
52782You''d have Jim Simmons''s nigger dogs atter you, an''den what''d you do?"
52782Your name, Son of Ben Ali?"
52782[ Illustration: HE EDGED AWAY AS FAR AS HE COULD]"What is it?"
52782[ Illustration: THE EXCITED HORSE PLUNGED ALONG]"Hurt much?"
52782[ Illustration: THE HORSES WERE RIGHT AT HIS HEELS]"Is anybody ever see de beat er dat?"
52782and"Whar you been, Little Marster, dat we ai n''t seed you sence day''fo''yistiddy?"
52782he cried;"ai n''t he your nigger?
52782he cried;"what queer country is this, where all the birds are headless?
52782how can you put such an idea in the child''s mind?"
52782insisted Mr. Jim Simmons with his careless, irritating drawl,"ai n''t it a plum''fact that this nigger''s been in the woods a month or sech a matter?
49745''If you come here to see other folks work, why do n''t you do it? 49745 ''What did you come for?''
49745''Why ai n''t those head- stays set up, as I ordered, and chafing gear put on the forestay in the wake of the topsail?'' 49745 ''Why ai n''t those skids got ready,''he roared,''to take in sugar?
49745''Why did n''t you do it yourself, then?'' 49745 ''You_ do_--do you?''
49745About his taking the little girl from the mill pond?
49745And how can you see in what fashion the people live if you do n''t go into their homes, and eat and drink with them?
49745And how did he come out with that?
49745And that one next to it?
49745And these others?
49745And we can carry provisions?
49745Are you a stone- mason?
49745As old as the world?
49745Been out all night?
49745But I suppose they are like our crops that we raise in the orchards-- rather light?
49745But about going back, Ned-- shall we start in the morning?
49745But how are you going to get James?
49745But how do they ever get any manure up there?
49745But if they do n''t wind it round them, what keeps it in place?
49745But what was the need of that? 49745 But what were those for that lie so far from the stream, on the high ground?"
49745But will Mr. Ben let us have her?
49745But you have probably thought of some way, if you should succeed in getting hold of him, to get him and yourselves home?
49745Can they hold on?
49745Cap''n,he cried,"do n''t you know me?"
49745Captain,said Sewall Lancaster,"may I speak in meeting?"
49745Citizens, are you mad? 49745 Cooper, was you born of free parents, or was you ever a slave?"
49745Could n''t you hear the crows, and see the sheep all huddled together?
49745Could you carry this vessel along shore, in the night, for two miles without getting aground?
49745Dick, how many times, since we have been acquainted, have I told you that you was an out- and- out fool?
49745Did Aldrich sell Peterson to Henri Lemaire for two thousand dollars?
49745Did he ever find out?
49745Did n''t he steal''em?
49745Did you ever get your five hundred dollars?
49745Did you ever see such oxen? 49745 Did you ever see such pigs?"
49745Did you have a carpenter?
49745Did you know the cook?
49745Do n''t it injure the tree?
49745Do n''t them''ere sails set like a board, and do n''t she travel, the jade?
49745Do n''t they lose their leaves?
49745Do they bear every year?
49745Do they yield much oil?
49745Do with him? 49745 Do you know what was running in my head all the time he was talking?"
49745Do you own this land?
49745Do you remember an American vessel, the Casco, that, came here last year?
49745Do you think I''m afraid?
49745Do you think you can do better at Guadaloupe?
49745Does anybody own land here, except the nobility? 49745 Does he have any particular one for his own use?"
49745Does he treat him well?
49745Does that Lemaire_ own_ those drogers, or only go in them?
49745God bless you, cap''n; will you do all that for old Dick?
49745Got the''horrors''?
49745Has he sold or pawned his clothes?
49745Have you ever done what Charlie asked you to that night?
49745Have you never thought of it before to- night?
49745Have you spoke any American vessels on the coast?
49745He murdered him?
49745He was a very powerful man; how did they take him?
49745How came he to be fool enough to do that?
49745How came you by this knowledge?
49745How can a man think much of his time when it''s worth only twenty cents a day?
49745How can you help it?
49745How could that be, sir?
49745How could you do that, citizen?
49745How did he get overboard?
49745How did they split these?
49745How did you get your freedom?
49745How do they get it off?
49745How do they spin?
49745How do you get it off the cocoon?
49745How do you know that?
49745How do you know?
49745How do you know?
49745How is that, father?
49745How is the wife, cap''n, and the pickaninnies, and that leetle boy of yours, what''s got Bunker Hill on his shoulders? 49745 How is this one rigged?"
49745How large are the frames?
49745How long have you been a bumboat- man?
49745How long have you been ashore?
49745How long is it,asked Walter,"after they are planted, before they bear?"
49745How many have you got?
49745How much are a man''s wages here?
49745How much do the other trees average? 49745 How much money has he left?"
49745How much of this vessel, lying here, could be seen from a passing ship?
49745How much oil will a big tree, like that we have clasped, make?
49745How much oil will they make?
49745How old is it?
49745How old,asked Walter of the peasant,"must a cork tree be, before they can take off the cork?"
49745How painted?
49745How was that?
49745How would you get him off, if you found him?
49745How you know dat?
49745How?
49745I can tell you what became of him if I like?
49745I could n''t bear no more, but walked straight up to him, and, looking him right in the eye, said,''How about that nigger, Cap''n Aldrich? 49745 I''m real tired; where shall we sleep to- night?"
49745I''m sure,said Ned,"I''d rather have a tumbler of cider than all their sour wine; and what is an olive to an apple?"
49745If you want to know, and ca n''t see,said Lancaster, who stood listening in silence,"why do n''t you take the glass?
49745In the same grave?
49745Is he alive?
49745Is she any different from the rest?
49745Is that all you want me to do, cap''n?
49745Is that the end of it?
49745Is that what they make oil from, Walter?
49745Is there no stone- cutter? 49745 Is there nothing else?"
49745Jacques,said he, while eating,"what was it you were saying the other day to a countryman of yours about a fire- ship?
49745Jacques,said the captain, laying his hand on the pilot''s shoulder,"do you remember that singular cove you were telling about a fortnight ago?"
49745James Peterson?
49745Just shut up your clam- shell-- will you? 49745 Ned, do you think getting money or being smart is to be put before everything else?"
49745Ned, where are you?
49745Ned,said Walter, the next day, as he was looking over the running- rigging, preparatory to bending sails,"where is the royal buntline?"
49745Neighbors,said Lion Ben,"what say you for towing her up?"
49745No; I only say my prayers when I turn in; do n''t you?
49745O, Ned, what kind of a tree is that, with those rough things on the branches? 49745 One of your blockading fleet?"
49745Pilot,said the captain,"is there any good place near here where we can fill water?"
49745Run away from_ you_, cap''n? 49745 Shall we kneel?"
49745She''s deep- loaded; that, to my mind, shows for itself that they''ve sold their cargo and had good luck; do n''t it captain?
49745Silkworms,said Walter,--"the worms that make silk?"
49745Solomon,said the captain one afternoon, as the old negro sat on the heel of the bowsprit, enjoying a cigar,"how old are you?"
49745That must be the vessel I''m looking for; but if she passed you, beating up, why ai n''t she here?
49745The bark and body look some like a maple; what are they good for?
49745The oven, sir?
49745The_ capitaineries_--"What were those?
49745The_ captain_?
49745Then Peterson''s alive, and a slave to this Lemaire?
49745Then that was what those stones were used for that we saw on the bank of the river?
49745Then their bread,said Ned,"as black as your hat-- what do you suppose it is made of?"
49745Then why did n''t they split this one?
49745There,said Ned,"who can beat that-- a carved table, tapestry table- cloth, and Sevres china dishes?
49745Think we could n''t get some milk of those folks, Wal?
49745Thought of it? 49745 Was he drafted?"
49745Was mate of the Leonidas?
49745Was she heavy sparred? 49745 Was that ever done?"
49745Well, how was it managed?
49745Well, that will be nice; but what shall we make them of?
49745Well, will you ask him to meet me at Washburn''s at four o''clock this afternoon?
49745Were those two West Indiamen all the vessels you saw or spoke?
49745Wharra fur you flog poor nigga, massa? 49745 What Frenchman?"
49745What are they made for?
49745What are they?
49745What are you going to do with these?
49745What are you loaded with, captain?
49745What became of his tools?
49745What can these be?
49745What can we find to dig a grave with?
49745What did he say to that?
49745What did he say?
49745What dis for?
49745What do they do then?
49745What do they do then?
49745What do you ask for them?
49745What do you do to them when you sell them in that way?
49745What do you do with the eggs?
49745What do you dress them with?
49745What do you suppose they would say, Walter, to see Lion Ben''s acres? 49745 What do you want for your lumber?"
49745What do you want me to do?
49745What do you want of that?
49745What does he put Peterson to doing?
49745What else do they do to it?
49745What for?
49745What for?
49745What is done with this rough silk that is on the outside?
49745What is it worth?
49745What is that, sir?
49745What is that?
49745What is that?
49745What is the matter, Ned? 49745 What is the stone trough underneath for, Wal?"
49745What is this?
49745What kind of a vessel do you call that, captain?
49745What kind of a vessel?
49745What kind of stuff is it?
49745What kind of trees are those with such crooked limbs?
49745What next?
49745What nigger?
49745What shall we do with the dog, Walter?
49745What shall we do, Walter?
49745What time in the morning,asked Walter,"did they bring your breakfast?"
49745What time of year do they peel it?
49745What was his name?
49745What was that?
49745What were they?
49745What would you have, Wal? 49745 What, all this valley?"
49745What? 49745 What?"
49745What_ did_ become of him?
49745What_ do_ you mean, then?
49745When will he probably be here again?
49745Where away?
49745Where do these people live?
49745Where do you suppose he can be?
49745Where is Dick Cameron?
49745Where is he, then?
49745Where is that?
49745Where shall we sleep; out doors?
49745Where were the blockaders when you left, Jacques?
49745Where?
49745Where?
49745Who dere?
49745Who did the rest?
49745Who is Pierre Lallemont?
49745Why do n''t you all turn to and build them up again, and use them in company?
49745Why do n''t you build larger vessels of the same model?
49745Why do n''t you get your government to demand him of the French government, if he''s a citizen, and save the expense and trouble?
49745Why do n''t you go and ship?
49745Why do n''t you have a mill to grind these olives?
49745Why do n''t you sell her?
49745Why not he as liable as another?
49745Why not? 49745 Why not?"
49745Why so?
49745Why, Walter, did n''t you ever see a chestnut tree before?
49745Why, in the name of Heaven, do n''t they leave? 49745 Why?"
49745Will he win through it, sir?
49745Will one hundred dollars in gold help your recollection?
49745Wo n''t there be some swearing, Ned,said Walter,"when they come to look over their prize, and find her a condemned slaver, full of rocks?"
49745Wo n''t we have a tuck- out to- morrow morning?
49745Would you mention to Gabriel what we found in the secret passage?
49745Yes; do you remember her?
49745You lazy rascal,said Lemaire,"ca n''t you keep them from stealing them in broad daylight?
49745You mean where the moonlight is shining on that large rock, and beside which a tree is growing?
49745You see that little cove the river has eaten out of the bank?
49745_ Blank letters?_"Ay. 49745 _ Do n''t_ I know all about it?
49745_ Execution of a king!_he hissed between his teeth:"what better is the blood of a king than that of any other creature God has made?"
49745_ Sold him!_ What do you mean by that?
49745After telling Peterson how they ascertained he was sold and where he was, he asked,--"Could you get out of that window, if we take the bars out?"
49745Ai n''t it great, Wal?"
49745Ai n''t that so, shipmates?"
49745Ai n''t you glad we did n''t stop with Gabriel?"
49745And was you a party to it?"
49745Are they any better off since they killed their king and a good part of their aristocracy than they were before?''
49745As soon as he got his head over the rail, he sings out,''Why was n''t that boat sent ashore, as I ordered?''
49745But about the frames, Sewall?"
49745But how do you know that he was sold?
49745But what are all these stone walls built round the sides of the hills for?
49745But where are you from, Dick?"
49745Charlie Bell and Captain Rhines say( as I know they will),''Well, boys, have you seen any place you like better than home?
49745Could you take a vessel in there in the night?"
49745Did he ask you what you meant?"
49745Did n''t you know that your crops were coming off, and that you would need all these things yourselves?
49745Did she carry a press of sail?"
49745Did the people seem happy, and do they live any better or know any more than we do?
49745Did you ever see the Casco, Ned?"
49745Did you ever see what was on Tige Rhines''s collar?"
49745Did you never see a dog bite the stone that had been flung at him?"
49745Do they ever fail of a crop in the bearing years?"
49745Do they live by farming, fishing, lumbering, or manufacturing?
49745Do you board all the vessels that come here?"
49745Do you remember their trying to find him on the bottom?"
49745Does he often come to St. Pierre in his droger?"
49745Does he roll over and over like a shaft, and wind it round him?"
49745Freeman walks right up to the fellow, and says,''What did that Frenchman offer you to kill me?''
49745Griffin?"
49745Have n''t I been through it all?
49745Have n''t we had some tough ones on the coast?
49745Have n''t you obtained information enough?"
49745Have you any objection to inform me of another thing?"
49745Have you forgotten James Peterson, that used to go with me?"
49745Have you thought of any plan, Walter?"
49745How I help it, massa?
49745How about those blank letters, those onions and potatoes I saw you peeling, that handkerchief you put on the fender?''
49745How are you, and where have you been all these years since you disappeared in Calcutta?
49745How are you, cap''n?"
49745How came you in this condition?"
49745How did that concern on the high ground work?"
49745How did you use to press them, Gabriel?"
49745How much be two hunder?"
49745How should he know anything about it?
49745Is not there a chance to be decent?
49745Jacques now said to the boys,"Why did n''t you come down when I was making signs to you, hallooing''mistral''enough to split my throat?"
49745Ned, do n''t you think we ought to put this father and son in the ground?"
49745Perhaps you know Peterson was a first- rate calker?"
49745Pray to God?"
49745Reed?"
49745Slipped the cable, and let the end run out the hawse- hole?"
49745They do n''t take the geese; why do n''t you keep them from taking the turkeys as well?"
49745Think he was murdered?"
49745Walter,"said Ned, after they lay down,"what were you hunting so long in the woods after?"
49745Was n''t I a sailor, before the mast, years and years?"
49745Wharra poor nigga do?
49745What are you stopping for?"
49745What are you thinking about, Ned?"
49745What become of my clothes?
49745What could you do with such a rough customer as me?
49745What crops do they grow?
49745What do you think of that plan, Walter?"
49745What kind of a tree is that with pale green leaves?"
49745What kind of land is it?
49745What makes you think you are so old?"
49745Where was Nelson?"
49745Who do the castle and the land round it belong to now?"
49745Who ever heard of tasting a smell?"
49745Who is wid you?"
49745Who is you?"
49745Who knows, or cares to know, the misery he had inflicted upon the poor, and by which he had deserved a thousand deaths?
49745Why ca n''t you leave them on the trees to take care of themselves, and, when they have made their houses, go and pick them off?"
49745Why did n''t you send that foretopsail down, and have it mended?
49745Why did you destroy those beautiful avenues and groves?
49745Why do n''t you make some mill- stones?
49745Why not take a deck- load of spars and the other stuff in the hold?
49745Will you say the Lord''s prayer with me, Ned?"
49745Will you sell her?"
49745[ Illustration:"WHARRA FUR YOU RUN SO, BUCKRA MAN?
49745and what is that growing on them?"
49745and what to the Lion himself?"
49745asked Walter,"and screws to press the pulp?
49745cried Gabriel in astonishment;"_ olives not worth picking up_?
49745he exclaimed, rubbing his eyes;"wharra fur you run so, buckra man?
49745or are the laboring people all tenants?"
31178''But_ what_ shall be done?
31178''Can that be_ innocence_ in the temperate zone, which is the_ acme of all guilt_ near the equator?
31178''Do you think,''says a third,''that honest, godly men would countenance a scheme which is not really benevolent?''
31178''Does this Society wish to meddle with our slaves as our rightful property?
31178''Does this Society wish to meddle with our slaves as our_ rightful property_?
31178''Entertaining these views of this fearful subject, why should our opponents endeavor to prejudice our cause with our southern friends?
31178''Has any one, in either of our southern States, given any thing like a thousand dollars to promote emigration to Africa?
31178''Has our country the resources demanded for the accomplishment of an object of such magnitude?
31178''Has the Colonization Society had no effect in producing these barbarous measures?
31178''How can this be effected, but by making our situation worse here, and closing every other door against us?
31178''In the third place, supposing all children born after January 1, 1831, were declared free, how are they to be educated?
31178''Nor do we think that the exhortation, to"do right and trust Providence,"applies at all to this case; for the very question is,"what is right?"
31178''Shall I not visit for these things?
31178''The question arises, where shall these outcasts go?
31178''We would ask, whence have the troubles, which have taken place among the slaves of Louisiana, originated?
31178''What can be done to mitigate or prevent the existing and apprehended evils, resulting from our black population?
31178''What has awakened that spirit of suspicion and enmity which is now manifested by these men in every form of open and active hostility?
31178''What is the free black to the slave?
31178''What is to be done?
31178''Who are the free people of color in the United States?
31178''Who would not rejoice to see our country liberated from her black population?
31178''Will not the people of the United States be induced to do something to remove their colored population?
31178**''How came we by this population?
31178**''Shall we... retain and foster the_ alien enemies_?''
31178**''There are those, Sir, who ask-- and could not a quarter century cease and determine the two great evils?
31178**''What effects does emancipation produce without removal?
31178***''Are they vipers, who are sucking our blood?
31178***''If, then, they are a useless and dangerous species of population, we would ask, is it generous in our southern friends to burthen us with them?
31178***''What is the true nature of the evil of the existence of a portion of the African race in our population?
31178***''Who is there, that does not know something of the condition of the blacks in the northern and middle States?

31178--how would this advice sound?
31178--in what colleges were they taught?
31178--with whom did they serve an apprenticeship?
31178Again I ask, are we pagans, are we savages, are we devils?
31178Again, how is it that none but the free people of color have been chosen to evangelize Africa?
31178All go_ voluntarily_: of what, then, do you complain?
31178And are not you thus endeavoring to cure one species of wickedness by the instrumentality of another?
31178And can they set them free, and still suffer them to remain in the country?
31178And can they set them free,_ and still suffer them to remain in the country_?
31178And have these men the face to contend with the infidels of our land?
31178And how can they be governed?
31178And if it should, what can they do without the consent of the people of color to remove?
31178And if the blacks are willing to remove, why throw obstacles in their path or deprecate their withdrawal?
31178And now, let me ask, could ever a century, in the whole course of human affairs, be better employed?''
31178And the result of such a mustering of their energies-- who can look at it even in distant prospect without horror?
31178And what evidence do they give us?
31178And what is this but a libel upon the American people?
31178And what is this system which is to be held in so much reverence, and avoided with so much care?
31178And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far?
31178And who are those christians and philanthropists?
31178And who, but the advocates of the Colonization Society, receive him as a welcome guest?
31178And why might not our brilliant and growing_ navy_ aid to some extent the humane and patriotic cause?

31178And will not the prevalence_ for a century_ of a restoring commerce, place them on their own shores?
31178And yet is there a single mechanic, farmer or merchant, who feels it to be his duty, or would be willing to go?
31178Are Right and Wrong convertible terms, dependant upon popular opinion?
31178Are these the men to stigmatize as foreigners?
31178Are they to be separated from their parents?
31178Are we not even prohibited from some of the common labor and drudgery of the streets, such as cartmen, porters,& c.?
31178Are we pagans, are we savages, are we devils?
31178Are you not willing people should choose their own places of residence?
31178Are you willing thus to be held up as tyrants and hypocrites for ever?
31178Because Jehovah overrules evil for good, shall we therefore continue to do evil?
31178But I was immediately strengthened by these interrogations:''Is any thing too hard for the Lord?''
31178But are they sure, or is it probable, that Congress will make this appropriation?
31178But has he been frustrated in his intentions?
31178But how else could he reduce the doctrine of immediate and complete emancipation to practice?''
31178But how is it that those wicked white men, who are in the habit of resorting thither for the most nefarious purposes, have access to these people?
31178But if any of the slaves should be exempted from sale or purchase, why not all?
31178But is it right to hold our fellow creatures as chattels, and to perpetuate their ignorance and servitude?
31178But is not this the colonization principle?
31178But suppose you were foreigners: would such an accident justify this persecution and removal?
31178But what are the remainder, the mass?
31178But what is the fact?

31178But what is to become of this choice selection, when it is able( as it hopes to be) to send off even as many as seventy thousand annually?
31178But who is adequate to the task of delineating its horrors, or recording its atrocities, in full?
31178But who really prefers such means as these to the course proposed in this bill?
31178But why this restless, roving, unsatisfied disposition?
31178But-- the objector asks-- how shall we evangelize Africa?
31178By whom shall the plantations at the south be cultivated but by them?
31178Can high birth annul the rights of the lower classes?
31178Can it be attributed to any departure of the Society from its avowed original design and principles?
31178Can pagans, or savages, or devils, exhibit a more implacable spirit, than is seen in the foregoing extracts?
31178Can that be_ honesty_ in one meridian of longitude, which, at one hundred degrees east, is the_ climax of injustice_?''
31178Can they blame us if we attach the same credit to the declaration that they mean to colonize us''only with our consent?''
31178Can this class be animated by any feelings of patriotism towards a country by which they feel themselves oppressed?''
31178Can we hesitate in our choice?
31178Colonization orators, designing politicians, ministers of Jesus, tell me, how can you thus libel your countrymen?
31178Do colonizationists mean, that slave- dealers shall purchase or sell a few victims less this year than they did the last?
31178Do they actually_ court_ the perils of the sea,--the hostilities of a savage tribe,--the sickening influences of an African climate?
31178Do they base their objects, in full, upon such frivolous excuses as these?
31178Do we not almost daily see men running headlong into wild and injurious enterprises with the very best intentions?
31178Does any man in his senses desire this population to remain among us?
31178Does physical strength make valid this claim?
31178Does the reader wish for any additional proof that the governing motive of the American Colonization Society is fear-- undisguised,_ excessive_ FEAR?
31178Even in states, where our numbers have almost doubled, have we seen one statesman, one officer, or one juror?
31178FOOTNOTES:[ R] What right have we to an homestead in the red man''s country?

31178Has the reader duly considered the fatal admissions of the advocates of the colonization scheme, presented in the preceding pages?
31178Have not the thirteen years''peaceful, yet efficient, operations of our Society attested the_ moderation of our views_ and the safety of our plans?

31178How would you do, brethren, if your object was really to benefit the poor?
31178I appeal to the candor and common sense of the reader, if this grievous persecution be not justly chargeable to the Society?

31178If necessary, why might not_ the marine of other lands_ be chartered?
31178If so, why then send it to the heathen?
31178If their object is to benefit us, why not better our condition here?
31178If we are to send away the colored population because they are profligate and vicious, what sort of missionaries will they make?
31178If we send away a mixed breed, how many will be left?
31178If, on the anniversary celebrated by the free people of color, of the day on which slavery was abolished, they looked abroad, what did they see?
31178In what circumstance shall we discover it?
31178Is Error, though unwittingly supported by a host of good men, stronger than Truth?
31178Is Henry Brougham a madman?
31178Is he consistent?
31178Is it because they are in reality, as slaveholders tell us, an inferior race of beings?
31178Is it because they are pre- eminently qualified in point of morals and information for the missionary enterprise?
31178Is it because they are under an exclusive moral obligation to dispel the"gloom of Mahometan superstition?"
31178Is it because they instinctively prefer Africa to their native country?
31178Is it because those who cherish it are treated as the offscouring of all flesh, in the place of their birth?
31178Is it credible?
31178Is it not a contradiction to say that a man is an alien to the country in which he was born?
31178Is it not a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God?
31178Is it not as atrocious a crime to kidnap these, as to kidnap a similar number on the coast of Africa?
31178Is it not in the power of these gentlemen to subdue it?
31178Is it, then, proposed to buy the slaves of their masters, as if the claim of property were valid?
31178Is not the colony at Liberia in a flourishing condition, and expanding beyond the most sanguine expectations of its founders?''
31178Is not the position superficial to suppose that American born citizens are Africans?
31178Is not this a libel upon humanity and justice-- a libel upon republicanism-- a libel upon the Declaration of Independence-- a libel upon christianity?
31178Is our prejudice against persons of color more rational or more just?
31178Is that dearest of natural ties to be broken asunder?
31178Is the American Colonization Society a beneficial institution?
31178Is the charge inflammatory or unjust?
31178Is the slave trade therefore a blessing?
31178Is there any thing, say they, in this proposition at war with your interest, your safety, your honor, or your happiness?
31178Is this folly or villany?
31178Is this language calculated to allay animosity, or beget confidence, or suppress contempt, or heal division, or excite sympathy?
31178Is this necessary for your plan?
31178Is this the language of fanaticism?
31178It is an inquiry becoming of the utmost importance, what is to become of those children who are arriving at the age of manhood?
31178Its immediate abandonment to want and ruin?
31178Know ye not that the reward of your hands shall be given you?
31178Knowing themselves the evils of slavery, can they wish to impose upon us an evil scarcely less tolerable?
31178Luther was a madman in his day: what is he now in the estimation of the friends of civil and religious liberty?
31178Many of them fought, and bled, and died for the gaining of her liberties; and shall we forsake their tombs, and flee to an unknown land?
31178May we not address them in the language of Christ?
31178My dear Sir, this being the case,_ whether is it probable that they will come over to us, or we go down to them_?
31178Not-- what does God say?
31178Not-- what is my opinion?
31178Now what would they think, if we should tell them that they would be better off in New Holland or in Tartary?
31178Now, if all this be true, how can they, on their own principles, say we can_ never_ be a people in this country?
31178One passing by, asked him what he was doing?
31178Our political condition we admit renders us less respectable, but does it prove us an inferior part of the human family?
31178Our structure and organization are the same, and not distinct from other men; and in what respects are we inferior?
31178Probably I may be interrogated by individuals,--''Why do you object to a colony in Africa?
31178Reader, are they''enviable''--''a thousand times the best''--in comparison with those of the former?
31178Rep.]''What are these objects?
31178Second-- What gentleman, who has set his slaves free, has been murdered by them for so doing?
31178Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?''
31178Shall we be told that_ invincible_ prejudices render this great desideratum impracticable?
31178Shall we look to wealth as giving one a title to the labor and freedom of another?
31178Shall we not bestow upon it our charities, and commend it to the protection of Heaven?
31178Since then it does not appear that we are pre- eminently qualified for this work, why should it be pressed upon us?
31178Suppose they were all good-- would this fact prove infallibly that they could not err in judgment?
31178The accursed traffic still continues to increase-- and why?
31178The following is the evidence in confirmation of this charge:''How came we by this population?
31178The intelligent portion of the free negroes know very well what is going on.--Will they not see your debates?
31178The latter naturally inquire, why is it, that persons of the same color, are permitted to possess more privileges than they do?...
31178The question is not-- what is true?
31178There does exist in the United States a prejudice against us; but is it unconquerable?
31178They dare not lead to the onset against the forces of tyranny; and if_ they_ shrink from the conflict, how shall the victory be won?
31178Third-- What have those States, who have washed their hands clean of the cursed stain of slavery, lost by it?
31178Those by which the intelligent creatures of God are bought and sold and used like cattle?
31178To prove the assertion, we would inquire, how many of our sable brethren have been elevated to any post of distinction in this country?
31178True, he was a gentleman in character, manners and dress; but he had a black skin; and how could white skins sit at the same table with him?
31178Very well; under whom are they to get this training?
31178We would ask the Colonization Society, what are they doing at home to improve our condition?
31178Well, said he, I can raise a dust, ca n''t I?
31178Were or are the design and principles of the Society hostile to the rights and interest of the Southern States?
31178What better plea could they make?
31178What but sorrow can we feel at the_ misguided piety_ which has set free so many of them by death- bed devise or sudden conviction of injustice?
31178What conspiracy was ever more cruel?
31178What do we see?
31178What do you recommend?
31178What does the law term him who steals your pocket- book, or breaks into your dwelling, or strips you on the highway?
31178What have the abolitionists_ done_?
31178What have we done to raise them up from the earth?
31178What have we_ not_ done to keep them down?
31178What hypocrisy and tergiversation so enormous?
31178What is it but to say, there is in them a moral incapacity to do justice, love mercy, and walk uprightly?
31178What is the fact?
31178What is the inference?
31178What is the meaning of that declaration?
31178What is their response?
31178What is there in the burning sun, the arid plains, and barbarous customs of Africa, that is so peculiarly favorable to our improvement?
31178What keeps us down but the want of wealth?
31178What nation under heaven, will be able to do any thing with us, unless God gives us up into its hand?
31178What right have the hosts of foreign emigrants, who are flocking to our shores, to an homestead among ourselves?
31178What right, I demand, have the children of Africa to an homestead in the white man''s country?
31178What rights?
31178What shall be done?
31178What should be their reply?
31178What should we think of such religion as this?
31178What then?
31178What would be the decision of the assembled universe?
31178What would have been accomplished?
31178What, then, is our duty?
31178When will you awake to your best interests?
31178Where exists a more rigorous despotism?
31178Where is it to be found?
31178Where is the proof of such purpose?
31178Where is this vast sum to come from?
31178Where would such a detestable principle lead but to practices the most atrocious, and results the most disastrous, if carried out among ourselves?
31178Who are the individuals that applaud, that justify, that advocate this exclusion?
31178Who but they are the apologists for murder, theft, and all the horrid concomitants of slavery?
31178Who can foretel those scenes of carnage and terror which our own children may witness, unless a seasonable remedy be applied?
31178Who can number the stripes which it inflicts, the groans and tears and imprecations which it extorts, the cruel murders which it perpetrates?
31178Who does not desire to see Africa civilized and evangelized?
31178Who does not pray for deliverance from the evils of slavery?
31178Who does not readily perceive that the prevalence of this opinion must at once paralyze every effort for their improvement?
31178Who is so blind as not to perceive the peaceful and beneficial results of such a change?
31178Who would not laugh at the scheme-- who would not actively oppose it?
31178Who would not participate in any efforts to restore those children of misfortune to_ their native shores_?''
31178Whose bosom does not thrill with pleasurable emotion whenever he listens to that truest, sweetest, tenderest effusion,--''Home, sweet home?''
31178Whose heart does not leap in view of the suppression of the slave trade?
31178Whose indignation does not kindle, whose astonishment is not profound, whose disgust is not excited, in view of these sentiments?
31178Why do we not accumulate wealth?
31178Why not send away the vicious among the whites, for the same reason and the same purpose?
31178Why not use the funds of the Society to instruct and elevate our colored population at home?
31178Why should property be represented at the impoverished south, and not at the opulent north?
31178Why should the American people make this enormous expenditure of life and money?
31178Why should we exchange a temperate and salubrious climate, adapted to our constitutions as Americans, for one, to us, fraught with disease and death?
31178Why should we leave a land illuminated with the blaze of gospel light, for one enshrouded in pagan gloom?
31178Why should we leave this land, so dearly bought by the blood, groans and tears of our fathers?
31178Why then, in the name of God, should we hesitate to encourage their departure?
31178Why?
31178Will this plea avail aught at the bar of God?
31178Wo n''t you let me give you a cup of coffee?''
31178Would any one blame the above classes for steadfastly resisting it?
31178Would foreigners submit?
31178Would it be safe?
31178Would not an honest indignation burn within us?
31178Would not such effrontery amaze us?
31178Would the villain be acquitted, and, instead of a halter, receive the panegyric of the Court for his conduct?
31178Would this be policy?
31178Would this be policy?--Would it be safe?
31178Would you send them into a neighboring forest, and there deal out that food which they were famishing for?
31178Yea, what was the condemnation passed upon him by the Illustrious Sufferer?
31178You do not look for it, do you?
31178_ Is not this force?_''Mr Fisher said:''If we wait until the free negroes consent to leave the State, we shall wait until"time is no more."
31178and to put others out of the house, because they happen to be ignorant, or poor, or helpless?
31178and what communion hath light with darkness?
31178and what concord hath Christ with Belial?
31178and where will ye leave your glory?''
31178as less magnanimous and just than the populace of Europe?
31178but-- what do others believe?
31178but-- what is popular?
31178but-- what says the public?
31178do its supporters really know what they talk about?
31178if it be right for a driver to inflict a number of lashes, how many shall be given?
31178if justice require the liberation of the few, why not of the many?
31178is it so?
31178is it so?
31178or are they more insensible to rude assaults than forest- trees?
31178or because the density of population renders it impossible for them to obtain preferment and competence here?
31178or because they are estranged by oppression and scorn?
31178or because they are the victims of incorrigible hate and prejudice?
31178or because they are told that they must choose between exilement and perpetual degradation?
31178or because they cherish no attachment to their native soil, to the scenes of their childhood and youth, or to the institutions of government?
31178or because they consider themselves as dwellers in a strange land, and feel a burning desire, a feverish longing to return home?
31178or because they do not possess equal rights and privileges with other citizens?
31178or that the slaves shall be defrauded of their just remuneration, less and less every month or every year?
31178or that they shall be under the absolute, irresponsible control of their masters?
31178or who measure the innocent blood which it spills, or the degradation which it imposes, or the guilt which it accumulates?
31178or who reveal the waste of property, the perversion of intellect, the loss of happiness, the burial of mind, to which it is accessary?
31178or who trace its poisonous influence and soul- destroying tendency back for two hundred years down to the end of time?
31178or will it please the villain?
31178that slave- drivers shall apply the lash to the scarred and bleeding backs of their victims somewhat less frequently?
31178that slave- owners shall liberate one, two or three out of every hundred slaves during the same period?
31178those which are founded upon piracy, cruelty and outrage?
31178to whom will ye flee for help?
31178what higher justification could they need?
9580ALL ready?
9580And heard and saw ye only wrong And pain,I cried,"O wing- worn flocks?"
9580Are all the dead dogs over?
9580Genius of America!--Spirit of our free institutions!--where art thou? 9580 Hast thou not, on some week of storm, Seen the sweet Sabbath breaking fair, And cloud and shadow, sunlit, form The curtains of its tent of prayer?
9580I''ve law and gospel on my side, And who shall dare refuse me?
9580O wild- birds, flying from the South, What saw and heard ye, gazing down?
9580We braved the iron tempest That thundered on our shore; But when did kindness fail to find The key to Finland''s door? 9580 What is it that the crowd requite Thy love with hate, thy truth with lies?
9580What means he?
9580What price was Ellsworth''s, young and brave? 9580 Who dares profane this house and day?"
9580Why wait we longer, mocked, betrayed, By open foes, or those afraid To speed thy coming through my aid? 9580 Why watch to see who win or fall?
9580''Do they say anything else?''
9580''Oh, do n''t you know?''
9580''What do you mean?''
9580** What words can drown that bitter cry?
9580--I knew the voice of Peace,--"Is there no respite?
9580A cause of praise and thankfulness?
9580A mighty host, on either hand, Stood waiting for the dawn of day To crush like reeds our feeble band; The morn has come, and where are they?
9580Against the burden of that voice what tyrant power shall stand?
9580Alone to such as fitly bear Thy civic honors bid them fall?
9580And asks our haughty neighbor more?
9580And but to faith, and not to sight, The walls of Freedom''s temple rise?
9580And call thy daughters forth to share The rights and duties pledged to all?
9580And dost thou shake to hear, Actieon- like, the bay of thine own hounds, Spurning the leash, and leaping o''er their bounds?
9580And he said:"Who hears can never Fear for or doubt you; What shall I tell the children Up North about you?"
9580And is it Christian England cheers The bruiser, not the bruised?
9580And must she run, despite the tears And prayers of eighteen hundred years, Amuck in Slavery''s crusade?
9580And must we yield to Freedom''s God, As offering meet, the negro''s blood?
9580And see our Freedom''s light grow dim, Which should have filled the world with flame?
9580And shall the Russian serf go free By Baikal''s lake and Neva''s wave?
9580And shall the slanderer''s demon breath Avail with one like me, To dim the sunshine of my faith And earnest trust in thee?
9580And shall the slave, beneath our eye, Clank o''er our fields his hateful chain?
9580And shall the wintry- bosomed Dane Relax the iron hand of pride, And bid his bondmen cast the chain From fettered soul and limb aside?
9580And shall we crouch above these graves, With craven soul and fettered lip?
9580And shall we know and share with him The danger and the growing shame?
9580And so, for such a place of rest, Old prisoner, dropped thy blood as rain On Concord''s field, and Bunker''s crest, And Saratoga''s plain?
9580And the mothers?
9580And toss his fettered arms on high, And groan for Freedom''s gift, in vain?
9580And union find in freedom?
9580And watched the trials which have made Thy human spirit strong?
9580And what are ye who strive with God Against the ark of His salvation, Moved by the breath of prayer abroad, With blessings for a dying nation?
9580And why with reckless hand I plant A nettle on the graves ye honor?
9580And will ye ask me, why this taunt Of memories sacred from the scorner?
9580And, in Oppression''s hateful service, libel Both man and God?
9580And, writhing, feel, where''er we turn, A world''s reproach around us burn?
9580Are these the graves they slumber in?
9580Are they men whose eyes of madness from that sad procession flash?
9580Are we the sons by whom are borne The mantles which the dead have worn?
9580Art thou become as one of us?"
9580Art thou become like unto us?"
9580Be firm, be true: What one brave State hath done, can ye not also do?
9580Beats her Pilgrim pulse no longer?
9580Beneath the slowly waning stars And whitening day, What stern and awful presence bars That sacred way?
9580Bring back The cells of Venice and the bigot''s rack?
9580But who are they, who, cowering, wait Within the shattered fortress gate?
9580Can a Christless church withstand, In the van of Freedom''s onset, the coming of that band?
9580Can this be Rain- in- the- Face?
9580Can this be the voice of him Who fought on the Big Horn''s rim?
9580Can ye not learn From the pure Teacher''s life how mildly free Is the great Gospel of Humanity?
9580Come these from Plymouth''s Pilgrim bark?
9580Corpse after corpse came up, Death had been busy there; Where every blow is mercy, Why should the spoiler spare?
9580Did the brutal cravens aim To make God''s truth thy falsehood, His holiest work thy shame?
9580Did we dare, In our agony of prayer, Ask for more than He has done?
9580End in this the prayers and tears, The toil, the strife, the watchings of our younger, better years?
9580FROM Yorktown''s ruins, ranked and still, Two lines stretch far o''er vale and hill Who curbs his steed at head of one?
9580Feel ye no earthquake underneath?
9580For such gifts to me What shall I render, O my God, to thee?
9580For this did shifty Atherton Make gag rules for the Great House?
9580For who that leans on His right arm Was ever yet forsaken?
9580Forget ye how the blood of Vane From earth''s green bosom cried?
9580Forgets she how the Bay State, in answer to the call Of her old House of Burgesses, spoke out from Faneuil Hall?
9580Give every child his right of school, Merge private greed in public good, And spare a treasury overfull The tax upon a poor man''s food?
9580Give thanks, and rob thy own afflicted poor?
9580God and truth and right a dream?
9580HAVE ye heard of our hunting, o''er mountain and glen, Through cane- brake and forest,--the hunting of men?
9580Had woman''s heart no feeling?
9580Harden the softening human heart again To cold indifference to a brother''s pain?
9580Has he not, with the light of heaven Broadly around him, made the same?
9580Has murder stained his hands with gore?
9580Has she none to break the silence?
9580Has she none to do and dare?
9580Hast Thou not said that whatsoe''er is done Unto Thy weakest and Thy humblest one Is even done to Thee?
9580Hath she forgot the day When o''er her conquered valleys swept the Briton''s steel array?
9580Have I not known thee well, and read Thy mighty purpose long?
9580Have miracles ceased When robbers say mass, and Barabbas is priest?
9580Have they wronged us?
9580Hear ye no warnings in the air?
9580Hear''st thou the angels sing Above this open hell?
9580Here''s another sweet son What''s this mastiff- jawed rascal in epaulets done?
9580How side by side, with sons of hers, the Massachusetts men Encountered Tarleton''s charge of fire, and stout Cornwallis, then?
9580How weigh the gift that Lyon gave, Or count the cost of Winthrop''s grave?
9580I inquired,''Is that all?''
9580I inquired,''What else?''
9580I started up,--where now were church, Slave, master, priest, and people?
9580In madness shall we barter, For treacherous peace, the freedom Nature gave us, God and our charter?
9580Is not Thy hand stretched forth Visibly in the heavens, to awe and smite?
9580Is not your sail the banner Which God hath blest anew, The mantle that De Matha wore, The red, the white, the blue?
9580Is that a woman On whose wrist the shackles clash?
9580Is that shriek she utters human, Underneath the stinging lash?
9580Is that thy answer, strong and free, O loyal heart of Tennessee?
9580Is that young Vane?
9580Is the dollar only real?
9580Is the tyrant''s brand upon thee?
9580Is this our mission?
9580Is this the land our fathers loved, The freedom which they toiled to win?
9580Is this the soil whereon they moved?
9580Is this thy voice whose treble notes of fear Wail in the wind?
9580Is''t not enough that this is borne?
9580Know we not our dead are looking Downward with a sad surprise, All our strife of words rebuking With their mild and loving eyes?
9580Let the State scaffold rise again; Did Freedom die when Russell died?
9580Let us then Render back nor threats nor prayers; Have they chained our free- born men?
9580Must fetters which his slaves have worn Clank round the Yankee farmer''s door?
9580Must he be told his freedom stands On Slavery''s dark foundations strong; On breaking hearts and fettered hands, On robbery, and crime, and wrong?
9580Must he be told, beside his plough, What he must speak, and when, and how?
9580My brain took fire:"Is this,"I cried,"The end of prayer and preaching?
9580Not as we hoped; but what are we?
9580OLOR ISCANUS queries:"Why should we Vex at the land''s ridiculous miserie?"
9580Of human skulls that shrine was made, Round which the priests of Mexico Before their loathsome idol prayed; Is Freedom''s altar fashioned so?
9580Oh, say, shall Prussia''s banner be A refuge for the stricken slave?
9580Oh, who could dream that saw thee then, And watched thy rising from afar, That vapors from oppression''s fen Would cloud the upward tending star?
9580Or shall the Evil triumph, and robber Wrong prevail?
9580Outspake the ancient Amtman, At the gate of Helsingfors"Why comes this ship a- spying In the track of England''s wars?"
9580Plied we for this our axe of doom, No stubborn traitor sparing, Who scoffed at our opinion loom, And took to homespun wearing?
9580Said:''No; they say,"Where are we going?
9580Shall Belgium feel, and gallant France, By Vendome''s pile and Schoenbrun''s wall, And Poland, gasping on her lance, The impulse of our cheering call?
9580Shall Honor bleed?--shall Truth succumb?
9580Shall Justice, Truth, and Freedom turn the poised and trembling scale?
9580Shall Mercy''s tears no longer flow?
9580Shall Pity''s bosom cease to swell?
9580Shall a Republic be less free than a Monarchy?
9580Shall every flap of England''s flag Proclaim that all around are free, From farthest Ind to each blue crag That beetles o''er the Western Sea?
9580Shall freemen lock the indignant thought?
9580Shall not the living God of all the earth, And heaven above, do right?
9580Shall our New England stand erect no longer, But stoop in chains upon her downward way, Thicker to gather on her limbs and stronger Day after day?
9580Shall our own brethren drag the chain Which not even Russia''s menials wear?
9580Shall our own glorious land retain That curse which Europe scorns to bear?
9580Shall outraged Nature cease to feel?
9580Shall pen, and press, and soul be dumb?
9580Shall the United States-- the free United States, which could not bear the bonds of a king-- cradle the bondage which a king is abolishing?
9580Shall the broad land o''er which our flag in starry splendor waves, Forego through us its freedom, and bear the tread of slaves?
9580Shall tongues be mute, when deeds are wrought Which well might shame extremest hell?
9580Shall watch and ward be round him set, Of Northern nerve and bayonet?
9580Shall we alone Be left to add our gain to gain, When over Armageddon''s plain The trump is blown?
9580Shall we cloud their blessed skies?
9580Shall we falter before what we''ve prayed for so long, When the Wrong is so weak, and the Right is so strong?
9580Shall we grieve the holy angels?
9580Shall we, in the vigor and buoyancy of our manhood, be less energetic in righteousness than a kingdom in its age?"
9580She raised a keen and bitter cry, To Heaven and Earth appealing; Were manhood''s generous pulses dead?
9580Side by side, amidst the slave- gang, toil the lover and the maid; Wherefore looks he o''er the waters, leaning forward on his spade?
9580Sits she dumb in her despair?
9580Sons of old freemen, do we but inherit Their names alone?
9580Sorrowing of soul, and chained of limb, What is your carnival to him?
9580Speak and tell us where we are going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9580Speak, Prince and Kaiser, Priest and Czar I If this be Peace, pray what is War?
9580Still as the Old World rolls in light, shall ours in shadow turn, A beamless Chaos, cursed of God, through outer darkness borne?
9580Still the dance goes gayly onward What is it to Wealth and Pride That without the stars are looking On a scene which earth should hide?
9580THE PASS OF THE SIERRA A SONG FOR THE TIME WHAT OF THE DAY?
9580Talk of thy glorious liberty, and then Bolt hard the captive''s door?
9580Tell us not of banks and tariffs, cease your paltry pedler cries; Shall the good State sink her honor that your gambling stocks may rise?
9580That all his fathers taught is vain,-- That Freedom''s emblem is the chain?
9580That your gains may sum up higher, Must we kiss the feet of Moloch, pass our children through the fire?
9580The braggart Southron, open in his aim, And bold as wicked, crashing straight through all That bars his purpose, like a cannon- ball?
9580The fathers sleep, but men remain As wise, as true, and brave as they; Why count the loss and not the gain?
9580The flesh may fail, the heart may faint, But who are we to make complaint, Or dare to plead, in times like these, The weakness of our love of ease?
9580The hope of all who suffer, The dread of all who wrong, She drifts in darkness and in storm, How long, O Lord I how long?
9580The parson has turned; for, on charge of his own, Who goeth a warfare, or hunting, alone?
9580Then sound again the bugles, Call the muster- roll anew; If months have well- nigh won the field, What may not four years do?
9580Then sound again the bugles, Call the muster- roll anew; If months have well- nigh won the field, What may not four years do?
9580They break the links of Union: shall we light The fires of hell to weld anew the chain On that red anvil where each blow is pain?
9580They cater to tyrants?
9580They rivet the chain, Which their fathers smote off, on the negro again?
9580Think ye his dim and failing eye Is kindled at your pageantry?
9580Thou, our morrow''s pathway knowing Through the strange world round us growing, Hear us, tell us where are we going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9580To feed with our fresh life- blood the Old World''s cast- off crime, Dropped, like some monstrous early birth, from the tired lap of Time?
9580To run anew the evil race the old lost nations ran, And die like them of unbelief of God, and wrong of man?
9580To whom shall men thyself compare, Since common models fail''em, Save classic goose of ancient Rome, Or sacred ass of Balaam?
9580Torture the pages of the hallowed Bible, To sanction crime, and robbery, and blood?
9580V. Who shall arrest this tendency?
9580WHAT OF THE DAY?
9580WHAT though around thee blazes No fiery rallying sign?
9580WHERE are we going?
9580WHY urge the long, unequal fight, Since Truth has fallen in the street, Or lift anew the trampled light, Quenched by the heedless million''s feet?
9580Was it for such a sad reverse Our mobs became peacemakers, And kept their tar and wooden horse For Englishmen and Quakers?
9580Was it thus with those, your predecessors, Who sealed with racks, and fire, and ropes Their loving- kindness to transgressors?
9580Weighed against your lying ledgers must our manhood kick the beam?
9580What asks the Old Dominion?
9580What avail Your terrors of forewarning?
9580What boots it that we pelted out The anti- slavery women,( 9) And bravely strewed their hall about With tattered lace and trimming?
9580What breaks the oath Of the men o''the South?
9580What could have been more congenially adapted to their then woful condition?
9580What dark mass, down the mountain- sides Swift- pouring, like a stream divides?
9580What faces frown upon ye, dark With shame and pain?
9580What fear we?
9580What gives the wheat- field blades of steel?
9580What has the gray- haired prisoner done?
9580What marvel, if at times they spurn The ancient yoke of your dominion?
9580What marvel, if the people learn To claim the right of free opinion?
9580What mean the gladness of the plain, This joy of eve and morn, The mirth that shakes the beard of grain And yellow locks of corn?
9580What means the Old Dominion?
9580What oaths confirm your broken faith?
9580What points the rebel cannon?
9580What prove these, but that crime was ne''er so black As ghostly cheer and pious thanks to lack?
9580What righteous cause can suffer harm If He its part has taken?
9580What sets the roaring rabble''s heel On the old star- spangled pennon?
9580What she has done can we not do?
9580What strange, glad voice is that which calls From Wagner''s grave and Sumter''s walls?
9580What tears wash out the stain of death?
9580What though the cast- out spirit tear The nation in his going?
9580What though unthrilled, unmoving, The statesman stand apart, And comes no warm approving From Mammon''s crowded mart?
9580What voice is beseeching thee For the scholar''s lowliest place?
9580What, but the stubble and the hay To perish, even as flax consuming, With all that bars His glorious way, Before the brightness of His coming?
9580What, then, is he, Who in that name the gallows rears, An awful altar built to Thee, With sacrifice of blood and tears?
9580Whate''er the loss, Whate''er the cross, Shall they complain Of present pain Who trust in God''s hereafter?
9580When shall the hopeless quarrel cease?
9580When was ever His right hand Over any time or land Stretched as now beneath the sun?
9580Where are we going, Rubee?
9580Where are we going?
9580Where burns its star?
9580Where flows its stripe?
9580Where for words of hope they listened, the long wail of despair?
9580Where the far nations looked for light, a black- ness in the air?
9580Where then was he whose fiery zeal Had taught the trampled heart to feel, Until despair itself grew strong, And vengeance fed its torch from wrong?
9580Where''s now the flag of that old war?
9580Where''s the hand to light up bonfires from her mountains to the sea?
9580Where''s the voice to speak her free?
9580Wherefore turn To the dark, cruel past?
9580Who Stands guiltless forth?
9580Who bends his keen, approving glance, Where down the gorgeous line of France Shine knightly star and plume of snow?
9580Who bids for God''s own image?
9580Who calls thy glorious service hard?
9580Who comes in his pride to that low cottage- door, The haughty and rich to the humble and poor?
9580Who deems it not its own reward?
9580Who doubts Antonelli?
9580Who is it now despairs?
9580Who most deserves our blame?
9580Who murmurs that in these dark days His lot is cast?
9580Who now shall rally Freedom''s scattering host?
9580Who shall henceforth doubt That the long- wished millennium draweth nigh?
9580Who stay the march of slavery?
9580Who then shall take him in the law, Who punish crime so flagrant?
9580Who wear the mantle of the leader lost?
9580Who will say that the above words are not a very appropriate song?
9580Who, dimly beckoning, speed ye on With mocking cheer?
9580Whose hand shall serve, whose pen shall draw, A writ against that"vagrant"?
9580Why ask for ease where all is pain?
9580Why cite that law with which the bigot Jew Rebuked the Pagan''s mercy, when he knew No evil in the Just One?
9580Why hate your neighbor?
9580Why lingers on these dusty rocks The young bride of the sea?
9580Why mourn the quiet ones who die Beneath affection''s tender eye, Unto their household and their kin Like ripened corn- sheaves gathered in?
9580Why take we up the accursed thing again?
9580Will the call to the rescue of Freedom be vain?
9580Will their hearts fail within them?
9580Will ye Join hands with the oppressor?
9580Wiped we for this our feet upon Petitions in our State House?
9580Woe, now, to the hunted who turns him at bay Will our hunters be turned from their purpose and prey?
9580Would ye barter man for cotton?
9580Ye sow to- day; your harvest, scorn And hate, is near; How think ye freemen, mountain- born, The tale will hear?
9580Yea, on his thousand war- fields striven, And gloried in his ghastly shame?
9580Yoke in with marked and branded slaves, And tremble at the driver''s whip?
9580Young Romance raised his dreamy eyes, O''erhung with paly locks of gold,--"Why smite,"he asked in sad surprise,"The fair, the old?"
9580a day for us to sow The soil of new- gained empire with slavery''s seeds of woe?
9580and art thou fallen thus?
9580and shall we calmly rest, The Christian''s scorn, the heathen''s mirth, Content to live the lingering jest And by- word of a mocking Earth?
9580are ye not Likewise the chosen of the Lord, To do His will and speak His word?
9580can such things be?
9580do ye wish More than your Lord, and grudge His dying poor What your own pride and not His need requires?
9580for his grace, Which that poor victim of the market- place Hath in her suffering won?
9580for the pride of man is low, The counsels of the wise are naught, The fountains of repentance flow; What hath our God in mercy wrought?
9580for the pride of man is low, The counsels of the wise are naught, The fountains of repentance flow; What hath our God in mercy wrought?
9580for who will ride then, For pleasure or gain, to the hunting of men?
9580he continued,''they asked God to give them their Atka?''
9580how long Shall priestly robbers at Thine altar stand, Lifting in prayer to Thee, the bloody hand And haughty brow of wrong?
9580how long Shall such a priesthood barter truth away, And in Thy name, for robbery and wrong At Thy own altars pray?
9580is that church, which lends Strength to the spoiler, thine?
9580no release?
9580not for thee Our tears are shed, our sighs are given; Why mourn to know thou art a free Partaker of the joys of heaven?
9580preach, and kidnap men?
9580shall their agony of prayer Come thrilling to our hearts in vain?
9580shall we guard our neighbor still, While woman shrieks beneath his rod, And while he tramples down at will The image of a common God?
9580shall we henceforth humbly ask as favors Rights all our own?
9580shall we send, with lavish breath, Our sympathies across the wave, Where Manhood, on the field of death, Strikes for his freedom or a grave?
9580their nerves tremble, when All roughly they ride to the hunting of men?
9580unto Thee May not our humble prayer be given?
9580what cries Rang upward unto thee?
9580where are we going, Where are we going, Rubee?
9580where are we going?
9580where''s the manly spirit Of the true- hearted and the unshackled gone?
9580why lies that old man there?
9580why will ye delay, When their pride and their glory are melting away?
9580why will ye slumber where The sleeper only wakes in death?
9580will ye falter With all they left ye perilled and at stake?
11274And who is my neighbor?
11274Is water running in our veins? 11274 Shall I not visit for these things?
11274The pride of thy heart hath deceived thee, thou whose habitation is high; that sayeth in thy heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? 11274 Why, EVEN OF YOURSELVES,"he demands of them,"judge ye not what is_ right_?
11274[ 23] Are these the men who practised or countenanced slavery? 11274 [ 29] Slaves and their holders here?
11274[ 34] How much above? 11274 [ 3] Must we prove, that Jesus Christ is not in favor of such things?
11274[ 89] What, Christianity bent on the destruction of an ancient and cherished institution which hurts neither her character nor condition? 11274 _ to scholars, students, and teachers of every grade, without distinction or preference whatever_,"as commanded by the Constitution?
11274***** CAN ABOLITIONISTS VOTE OR TAKE OFFICE UNDER THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION?
112742, And they that have believing masters,& c., what is the relation expressed or implied between"they"( servants) and"believing masters?"
11274A fair specimen this of the manner in which modern usages are made to interpret the sacred Scriptures?
11274Ah, why?
11274And are we to interpret the_ precepts_ of the gospel by the expectations of Paul?
11274And did the Head of the new dispensation, then, fall so far behind the prophets of the old in a hearty and effective regard for suffering humanity?
11274And does_ he_ think to escape responsibility?
11274And for what am I to return?
11274And had such masters been members of the Corinthian church, what inferences must they have drawn from this exhortation to their servants?
11274And how could it be maintained?
11274And how?
11274And is he not to be so treated?
11274And is not this the way in which the advocates and apologists of slavery dispose of the bearing which primitive Christianity has upon it?
11274And must we believe this of Onesimus?
11274And must we prove, that Jesus Christ is not in favor of palpable, monstrous falsehood?
11274And now what does the apostles ask?
11274And on what ground, according to the Princeton professor, did these masters and these servants stand in their relation to each other?
11274And so they have nothing to say upon the subject?
11274And what are your reasons for the construction of the passage?
11274And what must reason do with a book, which reduces the authority of its own principles-- breaks the force of self- evident truths?
11274And what sane man likens his position to that of the voting sovereign of the United States?
11274And what shall we say of the Golden Rule, which, according to the Savior, comprehends all the precepts of the Bible?
11274And what was the history of the_ apostles_, but an illustration of the doctrine, that"it is enough for the disciple, that he be as his Master?"
11274And when did government ever trust tax- paying to the voluntary good will of its subjects?
11274And whither would this lead them?
11274And who was he?
11274And, when authority is given to owners of slaves to_ vindicate their property_, can it be supposed they can be deprived of it?

11274Are not the best minds and hearts in England now thoroughly convinced, that slavery, under no modification, can be a school for freedom?
11274Are the_ requisitions_ of Christianity adapted to any EXPECTATIONS which in any quarter and on any ground might have risen to human consciousness?
11274Are we, as American citizens, under the sceptre of a Nero?
11274Art thou called being a servant?
11274As the law of liberty, how can it be consistent with the law of slavery?
11274Because bad men about me"play such tricks before high Heaven, as make the angels weep,"does it oblige me to quit?
11274Bring practice in these various respects into harmony with principle, and what becomes of slavery?
11274But has Government any peculiar character or privilege in this respect?
11274But have any donations been made by the United States for the support of colleges and schools in Ohio?
11274But how can I be responsible for the incidents of my birth?--how for my complexion?
11274But how do the apologists and defenders of slavery proceed?
11274But how stands the fact?
11274But is not the case different, when among the acts promised are some known at the time to be morally wrong?
11274But the question is here, whether one knowing a law to be immoral, may innocently promise to obey it in order to get into office?
11274But then, is there any such inconsistency in non- voters sueing and paying taxes?
11274But these-- what was their condition?
11274But what can he do?
11274But what right have these interpreters of the sacred volume to regard any form of slavery which the Savior found, as"worst,"or even bad?
11274But what saith Professor Stuart?
11274But what wrote the apostle?
11274But where are they to be found?
11274But who, in sober earnest, would call this a pecuniary transaction?
11274But whom, within the limits of our country, are we to regard especially as the representatives of our final Judge?
11274But why should we delay longer upon an argument which is based on gross and monstrous sophistry?
11274But why will he thus deceive himself?
11274But will impeachment restore the dead to life, or the husband to his defamed wife?
11274But, is it true that the bearing of the penalty is an excuse for breach of our official oaths?
11274But, says the objector, do you mean to say that I swear to support the Constitution, not as I understand it, but as some judge understands it?
11274By what possibility could slavery exist under the influence of such a lesson, set home by such an example?
11274By what process?
11274Can Abolitionists Vote or Take Office Under the United States Constitution?
11274Can I regard the slave as another self-- can I put myself in his place-- and be indifferent to his wrongs?
11274Can an abolitionist consistently take office, or vote, under the Constitution of the United States?
11274Can he have good intentions, or be well employed?
11274Can language be more explicit or unequivocal?
11274Can such inferences be drawn from the account of their condition, which the most gifted and enterprising of their number has put upon record?
11274Can these truths be contradicted or denied there?
11274Can we confide in methods for the benefit of our enslaved brethren, which it is death for us to examine?
11274Can we expect to see Christianity on higher vantage- ground than in this country she stands upon?
11274Come what may, will you sever the chain that binds you to a slaveholding government, and declare your independence?
11274Consistently with such obligations, can_ slavery, as a_ RELATION, be maintained?
11274Could I, in such a state of mind as the gospel requires me to cherish, reduce him to slavery or keep him in bonds?
11274Could higher responsibilities or greater confidence be reposed in men individually?
11274Could it be kind, merciful, or just to keep the chains of slavery on their helpless, unoffending brother?
11274Could slavery, in such a case, continue to exist?
11274Could such a relation be acquiesced in consistently with the instructions of the apostle?

11274Do she and South Carolina differ, as to the meaning?
11274Do we here find the chattel principle?
11274Do we not all recognize the justice of having some third, disinterested party to judge between two disputants about the meaning of contracts?
11274Do we remember still Old Plymouth Rock, and Lexington, and famous Bunker Hill?
11274Do we search for something there to obscure their clearness, or break their force, or reduce their authority?
11274Do we seek the common sense, practical view of this question?
11274Do you ask what can be done, if you abandon the ballot- box?
11274Do you seek the moral view of the point, which philosophers have taken?
11274Do you start at the suggestion?
11274Do you think that the doctor and his friends could persuade one to carry a letter to the patriarch from whom he had escaped?
11274Do?
11274Does God make obligatory on his creature the support of institutions which require him to do acts in themselves wrong?
11274Does God, through society, require men to sin?
11274Does he require us_ in principle_ to honor ALL men; and permit us_ in practice_ to treat multitudes like cattle?
11274Does he require us_ in principle_ to regard"the laborer as worthy of his hire"; and permit us_ in practice_ to defraud him of his wages?

11274Does love to the thief require me to help him in stealing?
11274Does not this description of the power every officer has here, under our Constitution, reduce Americans to the same condition?
11274Does the New Testament directly or indirectly teach, that slavery existed in the primitive church?
11274Does this avail me?
11274Does this bar the States from calling forth their own militia?
11274Does this take it away from the States?
11274Especially, can I, thus affected, take sides with the oppressor?
11274For what, when thus employed and when most successful, is the utmost he can accomplish?
11274From this?
11274From what part of the epistle could the expositor have evolved a thought so soothing to tyrants-- so revolting to every man who loves his own nature?
11274Have they not been constantly and earnestly engaged in the work of education?--training up their human cattle?
11274Have they the_ right_ to say,"Do so, or quit;"or, to say,"If you stay, we will consider you as impliedly worshipping idols?"

11274How could he do otherwise?
11274How could unrequited labor be exacted, or used, or needed?
11274How happy the change which should place him by their side?
11274How is my appetite relieved by holding up to my gaze a painted loaf?
11274How long may one promise to do evil, in hope some time or other to get the power to do good?
11274How then can it be innocently sustained?
11274How then, in the light of such obligations, must slavery be regarded?
11274I may surely ask A. to pay me my debt-- why not then ask the keeper, whom he has appointed over himself, to make him do so?
11274I trade, and government taxes me; do I authorize it?
11274If he promised, not meaning to perform in certain cases, is he not doubly dishonest?
11274If not, why was he so created and endowed?
11274If so, why do they not take the praise, and give us the benefit of their wisdom, enterprise, and success?
11274If such cases may ever arise, why may not this be one?
11274If the people and the courts of the land do not know what they themselves mean, who has authority to settle their meaning for them?
11274If these admonitions and warnings were heeded there, would not"the South"break forth into"weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth?"
11274If they have, does the constitution take it away?
11274In one connection,[30] an inquirer demands of the Savior,"What good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?"
11274In other words, when I have made my protest, what evidence is there that_ the nation_, the other party to the contract, assents to it?
11274In what estimation, in that case, should we be constrained to hold the Bible?
11274In what manner would this alter the moral aspect of the case?"

11274Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11274Is he responsible?
11274Is his frame of mind adapted to the study of the Bible?--to make its meaning plain and welcome?
11274Is it like American slavery, which, in all its tendencies and effects, is destructive of all oneness among brethren?
11274Is it not hence evident that SLAVERY was the subject referred to by the whole article?
11274Is it so?
11274Is not the precept under hand naturally subversive of every system and every form of slavery?
11274Is there any doubt what meaning the great body of the American people attach to the Constitution and the official oath?
11274Is this fair dealing?
11274Is this the condition in which our ecclesiastics would keep the slave, at least a little longer, to fit him to be restored to himself?
11274Is this the way of slaveholders?
11274Is this the way to fit the unprepared for the duties and privileges of American citizens?
11274Is_ this_ THE_ slavery_ which their laws describe, and their hands maintain?
11274It is his by sympathy with the oppressor?
11274Must not every one in such a community contribute his share to the general welfare?--and mutual service and mutual support be the natural result?
11274Must they not have been in harmony with the Golden Rule?
11274Now what does this oath of office- holders relate to and imply?
11274Now what says the constitution of Ohio?
11274Now, how did these good people treat each other?
11274Now, how must all this have been understood by the church at Colosse?
11274Now, what would my Caesar do, who had ever felt a link of slavery''s chain?
11274Of such, what says Professor Stuart''s"good old Book?"
11274Of what avail is a mere piece of parchment?
11274Of what character were these precepts?
11274On whose tomb have freedom, philanthropy, and letters been invoked to strew their funeral wreaths?
11274Receive him how?
11274Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?"
11274Shall we not be as honest in the Senate House as on''Change?
11274Should I not resign a petty ballot rather than break faith with the slave?
11274Superior, did I say?
11274That the apostle regarded slavery as a Christian institution?--or could look complacently on any efforts to introduce or maintain it in the church?
11274The Jews even?
11274The Welch, the Swiss, the Irish?
11274The debt we owe our fathers''graves?
11274Their"brother"could_ he_ be, who kept"the yoke"upon their neck, which the apostle would have them shake off if possible?
11274They consent to the murder of the children; can they respect the rights of the Father?
11274This our Savior did; and if we refuse to enter into sympathy and co- operation with him, how can we be his_ followers_?
11274Thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou lie?
11274Thus furnished-- the image of Jehovah-- is he not capable of self- government?
11274To what limit of remotest time, concealed in the darkness of futurity, may it look?
11274Was he willing thus to conceal the wrongs of his mother''s children even from himself?
11274Was it friendly to slaveholding?
11274Was the form of slavery which our professor pronounces innocent_ the form_ witnessed by our Savior"in Judea?"
11274Was_ he_ at liberty to sanctify the Sabbath, and frequent the"solemn assembly?"
11274What are his distinctive attributes?
11274What are we taught here?
11274What can women and children do?
11274What can_ he_ owe his master?
11274What confidence could be reposed in any instruction we might undertake to furnish?

11274What must be the bearing of all this upon slavery?
11274What must be the moral character of any institution which the Golden Rule decides against?--which the second great command condemns?
11274What must his objects, methods, spirit be, to force him to enter upon such inquiries?--to compel him to search the Bible for such a purpose?
11274What occasion for slavery there?
11274What saith the Princeton professor?
11274What says the Supreme Court?
11274What service, then, has the Princeton professor, with all his ingenuity and all his zeal, rendered the"peculiar institution?"
11274What shall be her punishment?
11274What then is Christian character but Christian principle_ realized_, acted out, bodied forth, and animated?
11274What then is the duty of such men?
11274What was that?
11274What was the character of ancient and eastern slavery?-- Especially what( legal) power did this relation give the master over the slave?
11274What would be the worth of our conclusions?
11274What, according to those laws which make it what it is, is American slavery?

11274When, as integral parts of this republic-- as living members of this community, did we forfeit the prerogatives of_ freemen_?
11274Whence the discovery that, in her onward progress, she would trample down and destroy what was no way hurtful to her?
11274Where, then, may we reverently recognize the presence, and bow before the manifested power, of this spirit?

11274Why the mysterious, awful attribute of will?
11274Why, before what tribunal do we dispose of the claims of the sacred volume to divine authority?
11274Why, what have our slaveholders been about these two hundred years?
11274Will the evils of the dreadful process be diminished by adding to its length?
11274Will the objector show me the justice of his principle?
11274Will they best do so by compromising their principles?
11274Without such a promise on the part of its functionaries, how could government exist?
11274Would such tameness and submission have freighted the May- Flower for Plymouth Rock?
11274Would this be to honor the Golden Rule, or obey the second great command of"their Master in Heaven?"
11274Your influence on the legislation and the administration of the government ought to be in the proportion of three to two.--But how stands the fact?
11274[ 80] Yet how do we find him and his sons, while prosecuting their appropriate business?
11274[ 83] And why should they?
11274[ 90] Why not correct its abuses and purify its spirit; and shedding upon it her own beauty, preserve it, as a living trophy of her reformatory power?
11274[ Footnote 43:"Why should I care?"]
11274_ By what standard_ must our character be estimated, and the retributions of eternity be awarded?
11274_ Can they be held as slaves, and at the same time be honored as men_?
11274_ In principle_, Christianity is the law of liberty;_ in practice_, it is the law of slavery?
11274_ In principle_,"where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty;"_ in practice_, is_ slavery_ the fruit of the Spirit?
11274_ Was it while washing the disciples''feet, that our Savior authorized one man to make a chattel of another_?
11274_ Why cling to the falsehood, that they were not respecters of persons in the formation of the government_?
11274and to the yet unborn, Whose heritage ourselves must make a thing of pride or scorn?"
11274are you ready for the conflict?
11274by letting their political life give the lie to their life of reform?
10549Am I then so sleepy?
10549Am I then still capable of being moved by such tones?
10549And Tulee and the baby?
10549And did you send for me hoping to convert me from the error of my ways?
10549And do n''t you care about my being colored and a slave?
10549And do you expect me to wait till the old Yankee dies?
10549And do you still love me as well as you ever did?
10549And from that height can you say to me,''Obey the call of duty, Florimond''?
10549And nobody else will be glad, I suppose?
10549And pray what were you thinking about_ me_?
10549And that queenly beauty, where is she? 10549 And what good would freedom do me without you, Henny?"
10549And what has become of Signor and Madame Papanti?
10549And where is the sister?
10549And, pray, who is Florimond Blumenthal?
10549Are they paid for?
10549Are you Mr. Fitzgerald''s Tom?
10549Are you afraid of anything?
10549Are you so afraid of me?
10549Are you?
10549But ca n''t we contrive some way to take poor Tulee with us?
10549But how can I help it?
10549But where are Tulee and the baby? 10549 But where can we go when we get to the North?"
10549But why does that excite your interest?
10549But why were you there? 10549 But why will you persist in making yourself and me unhappy?
10549Can the death of Floracita be apocryphal?
10549Can you think of any one who had intimate relations with him, of whom I could learn something about that connection?
10549Capital match for Gerald, eh?
10549Could he be capable of selling her? 10549 Could n''t a subscription be raised, or an appeal be made to some court in their behalf?"
10549Could n''t we go into Papasito''s garden one little minute, and take one sip from the fountain, and just one little walk round the orange- grove?
10549Did I make a false note?
10549Did Mr. Fitzgerald die before you left?
10549Did he marry her in the French Islands?
10549Did he?
10549Did n''t you know he was an Abolitionist?
10549Did n''t you telegraph that you were coming? 10549 Did she send you to tell me so?"
10549Did she? 10549 Did you ask him not to mention your former name?"
10549Did you ever hear of any family not legitimated by law?
10549Did you ever hear of anybody that liked being a slave?
10549Did you plant them?
10549Did your friends the Fitzgeralds return with you?
10549Do I_ remember_ it?
10549Do n''t you remember that Mr. King from Boston, who came to see us a year ago? 10549 Do n''t you think she''s a pretty little creature?"
10549Do you always call him Florimond?
10549Do you doubt my love?
10549Do you know whether Mr. Bruteman sold those slaves after they were sent back?
10549Do you mean the Aunt Rosa I was named for?
10549Do you mean the Mr. Fitzgerald who married my daughter Lily?
10549Do you really wish it?
10549Do you see that pretty little creature crossing the garden? 10549 Do you suppose any servant could sing_ that_?"
10549Do you suppose he''d give five thousand dollars for the young niggers?
10549Do you suppose my rich uncle would leave me a cent if he found out I had married the daughter of a quadroon?
10549Do you suppose you are going to make_ all_ the sacrifices?
10549Do you take me for a mean Yankee,exclaimed he indignantly,"that you propose such an account of dollars and cents?"
10549Do you think they ought to be informed of the present circumstances?
10549Does he expect to keep you here always?
10549Does it equal your expectations, dear?
10549Has he ever told you that he loved_ you_ as well as your name?
10549Has she been informed that the young man is found?
10549Has she vulgar, disagreeable relations, who would be likely to be intrusive?
10549Hast thou brought a letter from the woman''s husband?
10549Have you seen anything of Floracita?
10549How are they getting on there?
10549How can I be otherwise than sorry,she asked,"when I am all alone in the world without you?
10549How can I do it,rejoined he,"without putting myself in the power of those cursed creditors?
10549How can you wonder at it?
10549How could I help remembering you?
10549How do you know my perseverance would be useless?
10549How do you know that,_ sistita mia_?
10549How is that possible,inquired Mr. Bruteman,"when you have married the daughter of a Boston nabob?"
10549How shall we get there? 10549 How then_ could_ she be his slave?"
10549How was it possible that Mr. Royal neglected to manumit her?
10549How will Brother King like it?
10549How yer know dat ar?
10549I am to go with you, am I not?
10549I have given you my promise, and do you suppose I have no sense of honor?
10549I have n''t been there,he replied;"but why are you out here, Lily, when I particularly requested you to stay in the house till I came?"
10549I mean how did that bargain turn out that you made with Royal''s creditors? 10549 I ought to do the same for them without that motive,"thought she;"but should I?"
10549If he thought that I myself was a suitable wife for his serene highness, what had my great- grandmother to do with it? 10549 If such good friends had n''t been raised up for us in these dreadful days, what_ should_ we have done?"
10549If you do n''t intend to take him from me, what was the use of telling me this dreadful story?
10549Is it certain the young ladies are slaves?
10549Is it possible,he exclaimed,"that you mean to say she is your adopted daughter?"
10549Is it possible?
10549Is it really so?
10549Is it then impossible for me to inspire you with sentiments similar to my own?
10549Is n''t God_ very_ good to us?
10549Is n''t it amusing to hear such an infant trying to abuse us with a big mouthful of a word, to which she attaches no meaning?
10549Is n''t it? 10549 Is she engaged, or partially engaged, to another?"
10549Is she lovesick then?
10549Is such a thing possible in this country?
10549Is that one of the daughters we have heard spoken of?
10549Is there anything I can do for you now?
10549Is your mistress up yet?
10549Is_ she_ a flower too?
10549It was during our honeymoon,replied her husband;"and how could I be interested in any other voice, when I had yours to listen to?"
10549Just so,replied his host;"''cause they''ve got the same extinguisher on; and ai n''t it curious to see''em puffing and blowing at the old lamp?
10549May I ask whether you intend to renew your engagement?
10549O Tulee, what is that?
10549O, have n''t I told you? 10549 O, how came you to leave them?"
10549O, you disremember them, do you?
10549O,_ may_ I call you Mamita?
10549Pray what has he done?
10549Pray what is its origin?
10549Rosa, do you distrust me?
10549Shall I accompany you while you sing,''How brightly breaks the morning''?
10549Shall you go to the North soon?
10549She''s a beautiful lady,said she to Flora;"but if she''s got plenty o''money, what makes her dress so innocent and dull?
10549So you are an Abolitionist?
10549So you knew me?
10549So you''d like to be free, would you?
10549Sure enough, what_ should_ I do, my little flower?
10549The good German boy that Papasito took such an interest in?
10549Then they generally wanted their freedom, did they?
10549Then we will kiss good night,_ sistita mia_?
10549Then why ca n''t I go right off to the United States to- day?
10549Then you consider women and children_ property_?
10549Then you do not hate me?
10549Then you will secure them immediately, wo n''t you, dear?
10549Was he the one who seized that negro woman and the child?
10549Was n''t it funny,said he,"to hear that baby calling us Bob- o- lith- o- nithts?
10549Was she willing to be left?
10549Was the black woman who died there named Tulee?
10549Well, sir, what interest do you suppose I can take in all this?
10549Whar d''yer git dem year- rings?
10549What are all these comforts and splendors compared with the rescue of my country, and the redemption of an oppressed race? 10549 What are they going to do?"
10549What are you going to do with yourself this evening, Alfred?
10549What did you tell me_ that_ for?
10549What do you think I ought to do in the premises?
10549What do you wish for, gentlemen?
10549What does he make that horrid noise for?
10549What has happened to her?
10549What have you ever seen in me, Mr. Fitzgerald, that has led you to suppose I would consent to sell myself?
10549What have you to be afraid of, darling?
10549What is it you want me to do?
10549What is it, then, my pet? 10549 What is it?"
10549What is thy given name?
10549What is thy name?
10549What octoroon girls?
10549What possible advantage can you gain by such a course?
10549What reason have you to think so?
10549What right have_ you_ to order me out of the house?
10549What sum do you propose to offer?
10549What the deuce do you suppose I care about his octoroon daughters?
10549What was her character in Rome?
10549What, come again?
10549What, does this Mr. Robbem carry on the Deacon''s old business?
10549What_ is_ the matter, my child? 10549 What_ is_ the matter, my child?"
10549What_ was_ the dreadful thing that was going to happen, papa?
10549When will you come again?
10549Where art thou from?
10549Where can I find Captain Kane?
10549Where''s Chloe?
10549Where_ is_ there any new place?
10549Where_ will_ you go, then?
10549Which do you prefer?
10549Which one?
10549Who is Father Snowdon?
10549Who is the happy man?
10549Who''s Jack?
10549Why could n''t we live abroad?
10549Why did n''t you tell me, you black rascal?
10549Why did you ask him that question?
10549Why do n''t you go to some new place then?
10549Why in such haste?
10549Why should I care for everybody''s head?
10549Why uselessly expose yourself to disagreeable notoriety, which must, of course, place Mrs. Fitzgerald in a mortifying position?
10549Will she renew her engagement, think you?
10549Will they sell the piano that papa gave to Rosa for a birthday present?
10549Will they sell the table and boxes Mamita painted, and the ottomans she embroidered?
10549Wo n''t you give me back my kiss, when I''ve been gone a whole week?
10549Would it be a breach of confidence to tell me who has been so fortunate as to attract her?
10549Would it be too great a liberty, ma''am, to ask which of you ladies plays?
10549Would it trouble you very much if you had?
10549Would you be willing to receive him as a partner?
10549Would you then leave Mamita Lila so suddenly?
10549Yes, Tulipa? 10549 Yo like it yerself, do n''t ye, little missy?"
10549You lazy black rascal,he exclaimed,"did n''t I order you to have the horse ready by this time?"
10549_ Cher papa_, how long before we shall go to Paris?
10549_ Must_ you go, my son?
10549_ Provide_ for me?
10549_ What_ must be stopped, my dear?
10549_ Whose_ slave could she be, when she was Papasito''s wife, and he loved her so? 10549 A few days afterward, when Flora returned from taking a lesson in oil- colors, she said:How do you suppose I have offended Mr. Green?
10549A few hours after, she asked, with head averted from her attendant,"Has any one been here since I have been ill?"
10549A few individuals, who knew Mr. Fitzgerald, said,"What, are you among the creditors?"
10549A little thrown off his guard, Mr. Bell exclaimed:"And give an Abolition mob a chance to rescue them?
10549A soft little hand touched his head, and a feminine voice inquired,"What are you thinking of, Gerald?"
10549A very gentle and refined voice, from behind a clump of evergreens, said,"Is this Cinderella coming from the ball?"
10549After a struggle with herself, she said:"Do you realize how hard is a soldier''s life?
10549After a while, he said, slowly,"Do you deem it quite right, Mrs. Delano, to pass such a counterfeit on society?"
10549After remaining very still a few moments, Rosabella said softy,"Would n''t you like to hear some music before you go to bed,_ Papasito mio_?"
10549After the lapse of a few moments, he came to her, saying,"O Tulee, do you think she''s going to die?
10549All at once he said,"Fitzgerald, did you ever find those handsome octoroon girls?"
10549And how could I have helped falling on your neck when you sang''_ Madre mia_''?
10549And how the mocking- bird imitated your guitar, while you were singing the Don Giovanni serenade?
10549And if it be so, why did you not tell me of it?"
10549And is it not your birthday?"
10549And perhaps you can guess who it was that made me in love with bubbling over?"
10549And then, would it be right to conceal her antecedents?
10549And were not the new arrangements at Magnolia Lawn a sign that he had accomplished his generous purpose?
10549And why did you keep yourself invisible?"
10549And why does he pass me without speaking?"
10549And why does she conceal from me where she lives?
10549Are they down below?"
10549Are you willing I should use it to buy clothes for Chloe and her children?"
10549As he passed out, Rosa whispered to her mother,"What does he mean about a deacon''s selling women and children?"
10549As soon as they were alone, she said,"Tulee, where is the baby?"
10549As the lady led the way into the parlor, she said,"What is that you have in your hand, my dear?"
10549At last Flora murmured,"Is she dead?"
10549At last, his master said to him one day,"You''ve been to the cottage, I suppose, Tom?"
10549Brick describe Mr. Fitzgerald''s runaway slave?"
10549Brick, the police- officer?
10549Bright entered the room, saying,"Have you a bottle of sal volatile you can lend me?
10549Bright''s offer?"
10549Bright?"
10549But coming to his senses immediately, he inquired,"How can it be that your son passes for Mrs. Fitzgerald''s son?
10549But how do you suppose I can keep hold of the tail of the Air, if you send me chasing after it through so many capricious variations?
10549But if he is in love with me, why do n''t he tell me so?
10549But is it the truth he told her about settling with the creditors?
10549But ought I not to consider myself a lucky fellow to have two such mothers?
10549But perhaps you''ll let me_ sing_ hurrah, Mamita?"
10549But the tone was so sad that he took her hand with the tenderness of former times, and said,"You are sorry to part with me, Bella Rosa?"
10549But what is this, Floracita?"
10549But when he said,"Tulee, how is your mistress?"
10549But why do you wish to know?"
10549But would it be asking too great a favor, Madame, to be allowed to see the young ladies, and place in their hands these presents from their father?"
10549But, Florimond, did you notice anything peculiar in the meeting between Alfred and Eulalia?"
10549Ca n''t we go to- morrow to look for her, dear Mamita?"
10549Can he claim her here in Boston?"
10549Can you forgive me?
10549Can you tell us where they have gone?"
10549Could it be that there were such creatures in the woods as Shakespeare described?
10549Could n''t a doctor save her?"
10549Dear Gerald, are we always to live thus?
10549Delano?''
10549Did you ever see anything more roguish than her expression while she was singing''Petit blanc, mon bon frère''?"
10549Did you never suspect that Mr. Green was in love with you?"
10549Did you not?"
10549Did you see the stage stop there, last night?
10549Do n''t you find it very tiresome, Mamita, to be always remembering what is the custom?
10549Do ye s''pose ye had them handsome eyes for nothin''but to look at the moon?
10549Do you enjoy the career on which you have entered?"
10549Do you object to my asking her to come in and tell us something about her experiences?"
10549Do you remember Florimond Blumenthal?"
10549Do you remember how happy we were in the garden bower?
10549Do you remember how many variations you rung upon my name,--Rosabella, Rosalinda, Rosamunda, Rosa Regina?
10549Do you remember how you laughed because he offered to help us if ever we were in trouble?
10549Do you remember she used to call me Florimond when I was a little boy, because, she said, my face was so florid?
10549Do you think I have offended him in any way?"
10549Do you think I shall let dear Alfred''s little daughter go wandering alone about the world?
10549Do you think I was?"
10549Do you think it is necessary to tell Mrs. Fitzgerald of this?"
10549Do you think she was unhappy?"
10549Do you think there is no hope it may prove untrue?"
10549Do you think, Mrs. Delano, that it would do your daughter any serious injury to go with us this evening?
10549Fitzgerald?"
10549Fitzgerald?"
10549Flora, who felt her heart rising in her throat, tossed back her veil, and said,"Tom, do n''t you know me?"
10549Floracita looked at her sister, and said, hesitatingly:"Could n''t you write to Mr. Fitzgerald, and ask_ him_ to come here?
10549Floracita skipped out on the piazza, calling after him,"Papa, what_ is_ polyglot?"
10549Floracita started up, screaming,"What is that?"
10549Forgetful of her momentary fear, she sprang toward him, exclaiming:"Are you a wizard?
10549Gently moving young Fitzgerald aside, he said in a low tone,"Are you not well, my dear?"
10549Have you anything to object to my character or family?"
10549Have you ever seen anybody with Floracita since we came here?"
10549Have you the hair of some friend set in it?"
10549Having made a short bow, he said,"Mrs. Delano, I suppose?"
10549He ca n''t take me here in Boston, and carry me off, can he?"
10549He probably did not like the business of guarding slaves; for one night he whispered to G.F.,''Ca n''t you swim?''
10549He raised her tenderly, and, imprinting a kiss on her forehead, said:"Save you, my precious Rose?
10549He rose as they entered, and Rosa said, with one of her sweetest smiles,"What is it you wish, dear friend?"
10549He turned and smiled upon her, as he answered:"So my fingers were moving to the tune of''Long, long ago,''were they?
10549He''d give his biggest diamond for such a dancer as Floracita; and what is his Flower of the World compared to my Rosamunda?"
10549His first exclamation was,"Is n''t that girl a Rose Royal?"
10549How could I have borne your tones of anguish when you discovered that you were connected with the Borgias?
10549How could I introduce them to_ her_?"
10549How did you get there, when two minutes ago you were peeping at me through the veranda lattice?"
10549How does that strike you, Mamita?"
10549How is Mrs. King?
10549How much for this likely nigger?
10549How we sang together the old- fashioned canzonet,''Love in thine eyes forever plays''?
10549How''s turrer picaninny?"
10549I do not think I am destined to long life; and who will protect them when I am gone?"
10549I must obtain a legal ownership of them; but how shall I manage it?"
10549If Alfred had been here this morning, he would have exclaimed,''Is n''t he jolly?''"
10549Is it not your duty so to instruct him?"
10549Is it you, Missy Flory?
10549Is my little one tired?"
10549Is n''t he kind?"
10549Is n''t it funny?
10549Is n''t she here?"
10549Is this the way you keep your word?"
10549King?"
10549Let me see, what was her_ nomme de guerre_?
10549Madame Guirlande smiled as she thought to herself,"What is he but a boy now?
10549Madame swung back and forth in the vehemence of her agitation, exclaiming,"What_ is_ to be done?
10549Mamita Lila, did n''t you say papa was a poor clerk when you and he first began to love one another?"
10549May I ask whether you know anything about my parents?"
10549May I say,_ Au revoir_?"
10549Mr. King alighted, and inquired,"Is this Mr. Houseman''s farm, sir?"
10549Mrs. Blumenthal smiled as she inquired,"What did you mean by saying he sold women and children?"
10549Mrs. Delano hastened to enfold her in her arms, saying:"What is it, my child?
10549Mrs. Robbem met Mr. King as soon as he entered her father''s door, and said in a tone of stern surprise,"Where is my servant, sir?"
10549O my God, is there_ no_ place of refuge for the slave?"
10549One evening, as he sat leaning his head on his hand, Flora said,"What are you thinking of, Florimond?"
10549Only tell me one thing,--is he kind to you?"
10549Pray, on whose testimony do you expect me to believe such an improbable fiction?"
10549Presently Floracita came running in, saying, in a flurried way,"Who are those men down stairs, Rosa?"
10549Rosa''s cheeks glowed, as she answered proudly:"Do you think I would_ ask_ him to come?
10549Rosa, are you not willing to give me up for the safety of the country, and the freedom of your mother''s race?"
10549Rosabella noticed it, and, looking up, said,"What troubles you, dear friend?"
10549Rosabella was obviously agitated, but she readily replied,"Do you suppose, Papasito, that we would accept a lover without asking you about it?
10549Rosabella, pale and trembling, gasped out,"What has happened to my father?"
10549Sha''n''t we be happy there, calling one another all the old foolish pet names?
10549Shall I take you there in the barouche to- morrow?"
10549She bowed her head in silence for a while; then, rising up, she said:"Have I not my lovely Eulalia?
10549She looked at him anxiously, as she asked,"Then it does not make you love me less?"
10549She looked up quickly and earnestly, and said,"What would you advise me?"
10549She opened the door and said,"Tulee, are you there?
10549She rose on his entrance, and moved a chair toward him; and when he said, half timidly,"How do you do now, dear Rosa?"
10549She smiled as he spoke, and she said,"Then it has not made you so_ very_ unhappy to know that you are my son?"
10549She started to run into the house, but upon second thought she called out,"Gerald, you rogue, why did n''t you speak to let me know you were there?"
10549She started up, as if struck by a sudden thought, and exclaimed wildly,"What if he has sold Rosa?"
10549She stood awhile on the veranda, thinking sadly,"If Gerald loves me as Papasito loved Mamita, how can he be contented to leave me so much?"
10549She stooped toward her, and softly inquired,"What is the matter, dear?"
10549She was thinking to herself,"What_ would_ my father say?"
10549She went hopping and jumping up to Madame, exclaiming:"What do you think is going to happen now?
10549She went on to say, in a tone of perplexity:"What_ can_ have occasioned such a change in his manner?
10549She went to the kitchen and said,"Tulee, have you seen anything of Floracita lately?
10549Slavery?
10549Sometimes he would laugh, and say:"Am I not a lucky dog?
10549Somewhat mollified by this proposal, the old gentleman inquired in a milder tone,"And where is the young man who you say is my daughter''s son?"
10549Tell me frankly, Rosa, do you love this young man?"
10549The Signor, as he went out with the music, said,"Do you suppose she did n''t want him to know about the_ bambino_?"
10549The compliment disarmed her at once; and with one of her winning smiles, and a quick little courtesy, she said:"Do you think it''s a pretty name?
10549The third time we met, I said,''What is your name?''
10549The thought passed through his mind,"Would he marry Rosabella?"
10549Then turning round on the music- stool she looked at her father, and said,"Now,_ Papasito querido_, what shall I sing for you?"
10549Then, as if impatient with himself, he murmured, in a vexed tone,"Why should I_ think_ of introducing them to my mother?
10549They wo n''t come here, will they?"
10549This train of thought was arrested by the inward question,"What is it to_ me_ whether he marries her or not?"
10549Thrown off his guard by too much wine, Fitzgerald vociferated,"Do you mean to insinuate that I am no gentleman?"
10549Tom looked at her in a very earnest, embarrassed way, and said:"Missis, am yer one ob dem Ab- lish- nishts dar in de Norf, dat Massa swars''bout?"
10549Turning toward Flora, he said,"I suppose it would be too much trouble to play me a tune?"
10549Was that baby yours, dear?"
10549Was the fire of first- love still smouldering in her soul, and did a delicate consideration for him lead her to conceal it?
10549Was_ I_ happy in the splendid marriage they made for_ me_?
10549We wo n''t be afraid of the Boston gentleman, will we?"
10549Well now,_ is_ it you, little one?"
10549Well, what now, Mignonne?"
10549What are you doing here?
10549What are you going to do with yourself, Cousin Alfred?"
10549What can be the meaning of it?"
10549What can it be?
10549What could I do but despise such a man?
10549What could have induced you to take such a step?"
10549What if it should be one of those dreadful creditors come here to peep and pry?
10549What is it, Mamita?
10549What is it?"
10549What is my life, compared with the life of this Republic?
10549What is the matter with my little one?"
10549What part of the South was it?"
10549What shall we ever do to repay you?"
10549What shall you tell them about us when you get back from Nassau?"
10549What the devil can you ask more?"
10549What was your father''s name?"
10549What_ can_ we do, dear?
10549What_ could_ I do but run away?
10549What_ is_ to be done?"
10549When he came to the interchange of writings, she sprung to her feet, and, clutching his arm convulsively, exclaimed,"Did he do that?"
10549When he had gone, Madame said,"Do you suppose he does all this on account of the friendship of their fathers?"
10549When he met any of the creditors, he would sometimes ask, carelessly,"Any news yet about those slaves of Royal''s?"
10549When she came in, Mrs. Delano said,"So you had an escort home?"
10549When she returned, Rosa ran out with the eager inquiry,"Is she anywhere in sight?"
10549When she went singing up stairs that night, Mrs. Delano smiled to herself as she said,"What_ am_ I to do with this mercurial young creature?
10549When they came in sight of the carriage, the driver began to bum carelessly to himself,"Who goes there?
10549When they met again at supper her friend said:"Why so serious?
10549Where are they?"
10549Where do you live, my dear?"
10549Where_ can_ she be?"
10549Who could papa''s friend be that left me a legacy?
10549Who is she?"
10549Who is this new Mamita that you speak of?"
10549Why ca n''t you go with us to- night?"
10549Why do n''t you come?"
10549Why had she become so reserved?
10549Why not consent to live with me as your mother lived with your father?"
10549Why then do you not confide to me what it is that troubles you?"
10549Why will you not be reasonable, dearest?
10549Will it pain you too much to hear something disparaging to the memory of your deceased husband?"
10549Will you have the goodness to ring for my shawl?"
10549Will you name your terms now, or shall I call again?".
10549Will you never acknowledge me as your wife?"
10549Will you please to help me, Mamita Lila?"
10549Will you send the papers next week?"
10549Will you, without mentioning the subject to her, enable me to have a private interview with her to- morrow morning?"
10549With a look of utter distress, Rosa threw herself between them, saying, in imploring accents,"_ Will_ you go?"
10549With head proudly erect, nostrils dilated, and eyes that flashed fire, she exclaimed,"How dare you come here?"
10549Without answering the question, she said,"Will you have the goodness to write it now?"
10549Without looking up, she answered, very pensively:"Do you think I ever shall, Tulee?
10549Wo n''t she be in her element?
10549Wo n''t they sympathize grandly?
10549Wondering what sudden caprice had seized the emotional child, she said,"Why, are you ill, dear?"
10549You like sunshine, do n''t you, Manon?"
10549You never saw anybody so red as he was, when he held out his hand and said, in such a surprised way,''Miss Royal, is it you?''
10549You remember that dead pine- tree?
10549You surely do not hate me?"
10549or is it a sperit?
10549she said, in a voice choked with emotion,"You are not ashamed to call me mother?"
16741''Ah ma''am,''said Lucy,''what shall I do now she is gone? 16741 ''But do n''t the laws protect them?''
16741''But what induced him, Lucy, to do such a wicked thing?'' 16741 ''But what induced you?''
16741''But what made you get a black one,''said Harriet,''why did you not get a dark green or a brown one?'' 16741 ''For a horse and chaise, all day?''
16741''Lor, ma''am, do you think I cared for that? 16741 ''Lucy,''I said,''when was that placed there?''
16741''Miss Ellen,''says I,''as sure as there''s a God in heaven you are Mr. Lee''s wife, and why do n''t you say so, and stand up for yourself? 16741 ''Oh, master,''said Simon,''wo n''t you take me back?
16741''The deacon did not even give me a nod until he had scrutinized the condition of the horse and chaise, and then he said,''How are you?'' 16741 ''Well, Mrs. Brown,''said Arthur, for I was looking in the glass cases and under the counter for the pretty face,''have you any rusk?''
16741''What do you mean?'' 16741 ''What is it, Miss Ellen?''
16741''Where on earth has she put that cake?'' 16741 ''Where''s that''lection cake I told you to bring here?''
16741''Why do n''t you make the boy clothes enough, Julia?'' 16741 ''Will you give us some, and some cakes, or whatever you have?
16741''Yes, Miss Janet, but if God give me a better life, shall I not esteem it a greater blessing? 16741 A great many of your slaves run away through the year, do n''t they?"
16741Ai nt you ashamed to talk so about Miss Alice, when she''s always coming to you, bringing you something, and trying to do something for you?
16741Alice, I charge you, as in the presence of God, to tell me truly: do you love Walter Lee?
16741Alice, what is the matter?
16741And are they such trouble to you, Arthur?
16741And did you think I was going to steal besides running off from her and the poor baby?
16741And how did they get them?
16741And if such laws do exist,said Arthur,"where is the cause?
16741Any thing the matter, Bacchus?
16741Are you ill?
16741Are you not a runaway?
16741Are you talking of gloom?
16741Art thou,said Paul,"called being a slave?
16741Barbecue or campmeeting, Bacchus?
16741Besides, Abel,continued Arthur,"what right have you to interfere?
16741But am I one of the beloved?
16741But can you advocate the enslaving of your fellow man?
16741But how can I write to Arthur, when I know I am not treating him as I would wish him to treat me?
16741But is not Walter our equal?
16741But suppose he does not know how to do so,said Mrs. Moore,"what then?
16741But that was doing very well,said Alice;"do n''t you think so, Aunt Phillis?
16741But you love me, Alice; and will you see me go from you forever, without hope? 16741 But you must remember the_ spirit of the age_, Arthur, as Mr. Hubbard calls it?"
16741But, do your laws always secure you from ill- treatment?
16741But, my dear,said he,"do you think it right to give such things in charge of a servant?"
16741Ca n''t you experiment upon us, Arthur; test us chemically?
16741Can it be possible?
16741Children,said Miss Janet-- for she had gently approached them--"do you know when and where happiness is to be found?
16741Come back here,said Phillis,"you real cornfield nigger; you goin there naked?"
16741Come in, child,said she,"and warm yourself; how is your cough?
16741Could he die agin, Miss Janet?
16741Dead, what do you mean?
16741Dear Alice,said Ellen, fixing her large dark eyes on her;"how can I ever be grateful enough to you?"
16741Did God make de nanny- goats, too?
16741Did Lucy ever hear of her children?
16741Did n''t he though? 16741 Did you bring Lucy home with you, Cousin Janet?"
16741Did you ever hear de like?
16741Did you hear what Cousin Janet said to Lydia, to- night, mother? 16741 Do n''t you hear the wind?"
16741Do n''t you know your duty better than to be interfering in the concerns of these people? 16741 Do n''t you want some needles,"he said,"or a waist ribbon, or some candy?
16741Do you not see me before you, Peggy?
16741Do you think that the African slave- trade can be defended?
16741Does you hear that, master?
16741For what?
16741From whom did you get them?
16741Had I not better wake the doctor?
16741Have they come again, too?
16741Have we not always been as brother and sister?
16741Have you any more orders to give, sir? 16741 Have you had a pleasant ride?"
16741Have you tried it on?
16741He is what?
16741High,said Phillis;"where''s the sore foot you had this morning?"
16741How did you get here?
16741How is her pulse?
16741How is yer health dis evenin, master? 16741 How is your grandmother, child?"
16741How is your mother, Bacchus?
16741I do n''t want any thing, Willie; but will you be sure to return to- night? 16741 I hope you will not be angry with me, master?"
16741I reckon you''re sick, Aunt Peggy,said Phillis;"why did n''t you let me know you was n''t well?"
16741In what respect? 16741 In what sense?"
16741Is anything the matter at home, Anna?
16741Is it failing?
16741Is it the same? 16741 Is that your gratitude,"was the indignant reply,"for all that we''ve done for you?
16741Is this you, Phillis?
16741Is you got de headache now, Miss Alice?
16741Its an improvement, honey,said Phillis;"but what''s the use of getting drunk at all?
16741Mammy, she''s well,said the young gentleman;"how''s you, master?"
16741Miss Janet,said Lydia, speaking very softly,"who made de lightning- bugs?"
16741Miss Janet,said Lydia,"ai nt Miss Alice white?"
16741Mother,said Esther,"will you take this medicine-- it is time?"
16741Nancy,she said,"did n''t you think it was strange your grandmother slept so quiet, and laid so late this morning?
16741No-- no-- foolish child; what gives you such ideas?
16741Nonsense,said Arthur,"do n''t you think I can judge for myself, as regards that?
16741Not when she was''live?
16741Of whom are you speaking?
16741Oh, Mr. William, is it you?
16741Oh, mammy,she said to her attendant, for she had always thus affectionately addressed her;"did you ever see any one as handsome as Willie?"
16741On the bridge,said William, laughing;"did you think I was going to jump my horse across?"
16741Phillis, you do n''t mean me to wear dis here to meetin? 16741 Phillis,"said Bacchus, appealingly,"you ai nt much used to jokin, and I know you would n''t tell an ontruth; what do you mean?"
16741Phillis,said he,"do you b''lieve in sperrits?"
16741Robert,said Esther,"you''re a born fool; do you mean to say you want me to marry you?"
16741Sarah,he said, and she looked up as before, without any doubt, in his open countenance,"are you a good worker?"
16741Then if it is not your country, for what reason do you concern yourself so much about its affairs?
16741Think I did n''t see her yesterday? 16741 Time old people were in bed, Aunt Peggy,"said she;"what are you settin up for, all by yourself?"
16741To_ your_ heart? 16741 Was Washington a cheerful man?"
16741Well, Bacchus?
16741Well, but what shall I do?
16741Well, of course you are a great deal happier now than when you were a slave?
16741Well, what does it mean?
16741Well,said Abel,"how can you defend your right to hold slaves as property in the United States?"
16741Well,said Mr. Weston,"what did he say?"
16741What can I do?
16741What could you do?
16741What do you mean by that? 16741 What do you say such a foolish thing as that for, Lydia?"
16741What do you think is the meaning of the text''Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren,''Hubbard?
16741What does he do with it?
16741What have I to forgive? 16741 What induced you to run away?
16741What is here?
16741What is it about, Arthur,said Abel Johnson,"it is too hot to read this morning, so pray enlighten me?"
16741What is it, Alice?
16741What is it, master?
16741What is that large vault open to- day for?
16741What is the matter, Bacchus?
16741What is the woman''s name, Bacchus?
16741What makes her so white?
16741What makes you think so?
16741What put such a dreadful thought into your head, child?
16741What they going to laugh at me about?
16741What was to fall?
16741What would be done with the slaves in the mean time?
16741What you doin here?
16741What''ll I have? 16741 What''ll you have, Jake?"
16741What''s come over you?
16741What_ is_ the matter?
16741When people are dead they do n''t hear nothin; where''s the harm?
16741When?
16741Where are the little girls?
16741Where is Martha?
16741Where shall you go first?
16741Who brought this paper into my room?
16741Who cares for tar and feathers?
16741Who is there?
16741Who says I was ever tired of her? 16741 Who will say what God intends to do?
16741Who would have thought she could have made so wise a will? 16741 Who''s I got to set up wid me?"
16741Whose can they be?
16741Why did not Walter come in?
16741Why did you do so? 16741 Why do n''t you go to bed, then?"
16741Why do you not_ take_ your freedom?
16741Why think of that now, my love?
16741Why, Jupiter,said Phillis,"is this you?
16741Why, how are you going to cross Willow''s Creek?
16741Why, how,said she, as Bacchus, in a most cramped condition endeavored to raise himself,"did the lid fall on you?"
16741Why, lord a massy,said he,"Phillis, what do you call dis here?
16741Why, whar''s the ruffles?
16741Why, what a fool you be,said one of the men;"Did n''t I tell you to bring your mistress''purse along?"
16741Why, what on earth?
16741Will any body listen to the boy? 16741 Will you have any thing, sir?"
16741Would I, sir? 16741 Would n''t he be a good subject for tar and feathers, Arthur?
16741Yes, I am; but why do you ask me?
16741You ai n''t in earnest, Esther?
16741You are Abolitionists, I''spose?
16741You are afraid of the night air, Cousin Janet?
16741You are not in love with him now, are you, Alice?
16741You call it a misfortune, do you, Bacchus?
16741You do n''t think, then,said Mr. Hubbard, argumentatively,"that God''s curse is on slavery, do you?"
16741You never liked him, Anna,said Mr. Weston;"why was it?"
16741You, with your smooth cheeks and bright eyes, may well think of passing a winter in Washington; but what should I do there? 16741 [ A] Although she is here speaking of slavery_ politically_, can you not apply it to matrimony in this miserable country of ours?
16741''And where is Abednego?''
16741''Are they all dead?''
16741''Father,''said he, scarcely waiting until the sentence that General Washington was uttering, was finished,''what do you think?
16741''Is it possible that they are gone, and I am no longer to be plagued with them?
16741''Well, what has become of them?''
16741***** ARTHUR''S New Juvenile Library BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED, 1. WHO IS GREATEST?
16741***** Mr. Weston alighted from his horse, and hurried to the sitting- room,"Have you waited tea for me?"
16741***** WHAT IS CHURCH HISTORY?
16741*****"Now,"said Abel,"having a couple of particularly good cigars, where did we leave off?"
167412. WHO ARE HAPPIEST?
16741After a great deal of mental exercise, the brain jumps at a conclusion,"What are these dogs kept here for?"
16741Again Lydia spoke,"If I was to stay all time in de house, and never go in de sun, would I git white?"
16741Alice, darling, is your head better?"
16741Am I not a daughter of the Old Dominion, a member of one of the F.F.V''s?
16741And Arthur, can it be right for me to be engaged to him, and to deceive him, too?"
16741And have I not a right to insist, for my native State, upon all that truth will permit?
16741And what did they say to the slavery that existed then and had been entailed upon them by the English government?
16741And what to thee, thou faithful servant?
16741And who can read the history of the world and say this curse has not existed ever since it was uttered?
16741And, finally, she was desired to open her mouth, that they might see whether her teeth had been extracted to sell to the dentist?"
16741Anna, did you send for the doctor?"
16741Are are all my tears and prayers to fail?
16741Are not all these curses recorded, and will they not all be fulfilled?
16741As she looked into Mr. Weston''s grieved and honest face, the question suggested itself,--Is it right thus, to keep him in ignorance?
16741As to"Whether she had been born a slave, or had been kidnapped?
16741Ask mammy if I ai nt?"
16741But a bitter smile passed over his countenance, and in a stern voice he said,"And you, Alice, what are you to do?"
16741But does this curse authorize the slave- trade?
16741But how can that man be loved who has put away his wife from him, because he is tired of her?
16741But what is this, coming along the side- walk?"
16741But what was she now?
16741But why do n''t the Abolitionists buy our slaves, and send them to Liberia?"
16741But, Phillis, have you no wishes to express, as regards your children?"
16741But, what will the Abolitionist say to this scene?
16741Can anybody fail to make the inference, what the practical result will be?
16741Can it be that in this case the wise Creator will visit the sins of the father upon the child?
16741Can we judge of society by a few isolated incidents?
16741Can we not remodel our husbands, place them under our thumbs, and shut up the escape valves of their grumbling forever?
16741Canst thou change his employments, and elevate his condition?
16741Christian of the North, canst thou emancipate the Southern slave?
16741Could a man capable of such an act deserve the blessing of a just and holy God?
16741Could aught escape_ their_ vigilance?
16741Did Bacchus know it?"
16741Did I heed his advice?
16741Did I not tell you of the time I hired his horse and chaise?
16741Did ever any one hear of a soldier being amiable?
16741Did he condemn the institution which he had made?
16741Did he establish universal freedom?
16741Did it ever occur to her, that Northerners might go South, and buy a great many of these slaves, and manumit them?
16741Did not my father wear crape on his hat at his funeral?
16741Did not my grandfather ride races with General Washington?
16741Did she ever have any thing but sweet potato pealings?
16741Did you ever think of the consequences of such an act?''
16741Do n''t you see all these graves around you?"
16741Do n''t you see how people sneer at you when they see you?''
16741Do you commend that morbid affection which clings to its object not only through sorrow, but sin?
16741Do you see any thing like apprehension?
16741Does not this exhibit the impression of the Jews as regards the character of Ham?
16741Each heart asked itself, When?
16741Except in crossing a corduroy road in the West, where can one hope to be so thoroughly shaken up?
16741For, is a professed gambler better than a common thief?
16741Gradually the chest lid opened a little way, and a sepulchral voice, issuing from it, uttered in a low tone these words:"Phillis, gal, is that you?"
16741Had Christ left it to them to carry out, in this instance, his revealed will?
16741Had she ever been ducked?
16741Had she ever been shut up in a dark cellar and nearly starved?
16741Had the apostles authority to do it away?
16741Had you an unkind master?"
16741Has he in the wide world an enemy who can bring aught against him?
16741Has she heard those cheering words?
16741Has this curse failed or been removed?
16741Have I not often told you that God is a spirit?
16741Have not they been fulfilled?
16741Have you any right to claim for yourself superior holiness?
16741Have you never told Alice her history, cousin?"
16741Have you no children, Lucy?''
16741Have you not pitied him when you reflected that he was alone, far away from such good influences?
16741Have you so little pride?
16741Havn''t I been crossing it these fifty years?
16741He came on an errand of mercy to the world, and he was all powerful to accomplish the Divine intent; but, did he emancipate the slave?
16741Here is one whom he has loved, whose voice he is accustomed to hear; shall he, through neglect or mismanagement, make a void in many hearts?
16741How came you to do that?''
16741How can you stand it?
16741How could such a man die?
16741How could you ask me?"
16741How do you all feel?"
16741How does he fare?
16741How is he to draw the nice line of distinction?
16741How many times a week she had been whipped, and what with?
16741How much did I know of death?
16741I am in a hurry now, tell me what I am to pay you?''
16741I am told you are turned preacher?"
16741I guess you think the rags on your back good wages enough?"
16741I have been anxious for your health, but is there not more cause to fear for your happiness?"
16741I meant, did you not fear His power, who could not only kill your body, but destroy your soul in hell?''
16741I rather think, that you''d think the first stray horse you could find an indication of Providence-- shouldn''t you?"
16741I said to one of them, a large fat negro,''What''s your name, uncle?''
16741In reply to the question,"Are you free?"
16741In the times of the apostles, what do we see?
16741Is he not a curiosity?
16741Is it for my country, or for my party and myself?
16741Is it so?"
16741Is it your wish too?"
16741Is that it, Arthur?"
16741Is there any place in the world like this?"
16741Is there not a charm in it?
16741It has been, that master and slave were friends; and if this can not continue, at whose door will the sin lie?
16741It was dreadful to see her thus agitated; and Alice, throwing her arms around her mother exclaimed,"What is it, dearest mother?
16741It was without any agitation that she asked what was the matter?
16741Johnson?''
16741Lydia said inquiringly,"Was n''t Jesus Christ God, ma''am?"
16741Men of business and mechanics in the land, they know that one who ever defended their interests is gone, and who shall take his place?
16741Miss Alice, ai nt she never told you bout de time she seed an elerphant drink a river dry?"
16741Mr. H. has just returned from a tour in the Southern States, and he is to lecture to- night, wo n''t you go and hear him?"
16741Need I say it was joy when she called me, Mother?
16741Need I say that I was happy when she nestled there?
16741Need he essay to penetrate the future?
16741Now, has there been any law reversing this, except in the States that have become free?
16741Now, is not this infamous?"
16741Now, was not that trading in human bodies and souls in earnest?
16741Perkins?"
16741See any little graves thar?
16741Shall he, from want of skill, bring weeping and desolation to a house where health and joy have been?
16741She asks the question,"_ What_ can any individual do?"
16741She sighed and continued,"Am I not deceiving the kind protector and friend of my childhood?
16741She was not for him; and why should he not seek, as others had done, to drown all care?
16741She''s got a pleasant voice, has n''t she, sir?
16741Shut down the window, Miss Ellen, do n''t you feel the wind?
16741So, ma''am, if God died onct, could n''t he die agin?"
16741The day when there was a tie between master and slave,--is that departing, and why?
16741The young men laughed, and Arthur said"What will he do with his money?
16741There is one thing concerning death in which we are apt to be sceptical, and that is,"Does he want me?"
16741There, you''re sneezin; did n''t I tell you so?"
16741This dread crisis past, and what would be the result?
16741This is slavery indeed, and where is the man, come from God, who will show us a remedy?
16741Tom evidently considers himself as too good for this world; and after making these proposals to his master, he is asked,"How are you?"
16741Walter?"
16741Warn''t dat what you said, sir?''
16741Was she allowed more than one meal a day?
16741Was the dreaded messenger here?
16741Watcher by the couch of suffering, sayest thou so?
16741We may observe his dealings with man, but we may not ask, until he reveals it, Why hast thou thus done?
16741Well may he bare his breast and say, for_ what_ is my voice raised where his has been heard?
16741Well, Mark, I hope the little fellow is getting well?"
16741Were the exertions of the Abolitionists successful, what would be the result?
16741Weston?"
16741What can be the matter with you?
16741What can be the meaning of it?"
16741What do you think about it, Arthur?"
16741What has brought you here?"
16741What has come over you?"
16741What has it been elsewhere?
16741What might it bring forth; joy or endless weeping?
16741What might the short summer bring?
16741What right have you New England people to the farms you are now holding?"
16741What says that vision of languishing and loveliness to the old man whose eyes are fixed in grief upon it?
16741What to him is the love of country, or the memory of Washington?
16741What to thee, oh, mother?
16741What was it a doin?"
16741What was there?
16741What will this gentleman think of me?"
16741When did he die?"
16741When is he comin, any how, sir?"
16741When we are thirsty water is better than any thing else; and when we ai nt thirsty, what''s the use of drinking?"
16741When were thy first thoughts of death?
16741When will stay the tumultuous beatings of their hearts?
16741When will they sleep in the shadow of the old church?
16741When will you set out, and how will you travel?
16741Where are now the hopes of half thy lifetime, where the consummation of all thy anxious plans?
16741Where are such roads to be found?
16741Where is Canaan?"
16741Where is her beauty-- and her grace and talent?
16741Where is that mother?
16741Where were the whip and the cord, and other instruments of torture?
16741Whether she had ever been sold?
16741Which was the blacker, her eyes or her visage; or whiter, her eyeballs or her hair?
16741Who could expect a woman to preserve her composure under such circumstances?
16741Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?
16741Why are you so still and silent?
16741Why ca n''t you repent?
16741Why did n''t you fry''em a little more?"
16741Why did you not inform me of it, that I might have sent him off?"
16741Why do you judge for him?
16741Why need he recall the past?
16741Why, Bacchus, how come it, you forgot old Jupiter?
16741Why, sir, do you mean to say, that the life of a slave is in the power of a master, and that he is not under the protection of our laws?"
16741Why, you look sober; not regretting Washington already?"
16741Will any one hear her coughin?
16741Will it pass, or will it rest upon thee forever?
16741Will she close thine eyes with her loving hand?
16741Will she drop upon thy breast a daughter''s tear?"
16741Will she perpetuate the name of thy race?
16741Will you not join her there?
16741Will you not taste the sublime joys of faith?
16741Will you promise me you will try to be?"
16741Will you yourself speak the word that sends me forth a wanderer upon the earth?"
16741William?"
16741Would you leave me for Walter, Alice?"
16741Would you like again to see Mr. Caldwell, and receive the communion?"
16741Would you run such a risk?
16741Would you then, sir, destroy the fabric, by undermining the Constitution?
16741[ B] And now, Phillis, are you satisfied?
16741aged woman?
16741and ai nt I up to all its freaks and ways?
16741are you sure?"
16741but does he offer to share in the loss?
16741but what does he do that really advances his interest?
16741daddy, is that you?"
16741have so many years passed away, that thou hast forgotten the bitterness of thy first sorrow, or is it yet to come?
16741have you ever stood by the dying bed of a slave?
16741if your father had been here to have saved him-- but who could have saved him?
16741master,"said Phillis,"what shall I say to you?
16741said Abel,"there is that idiot, with his tongue hanging out of his mouth, across the street: was he born equal with you?"
16741said Aunt Peggy,"that''s all?"
16741said Mr. Weston,"Is Cousin Janet--?"
16741said Mr. Weston,"and do you continue this disputing in my presence?
16741said Mrs. Moore;"you would n''t have me do a thing my husband disapproves of, would you?"
16741said Mrs. Weston,"and Arthur within a few miles of us?
16741said Phillis;"did she sleep well?"
16741said the Northern gentleman,"were niggers allowed to attend Washington''s funeral?"
16741said the astonished woman:"Surely, is that you, Bacchus?"
16741sir,"said Mr. Chapman, the veins in his temples swelling, and his whole frame glowing with vexation,"what is that you say?
16741t''aint a shirt?
16741that her voice was music to my soul, and her smile the very presence of beauty?
16741what?"
16741young ladies,"he continued,"did she rightly use those talents?"
59834''Squire, did you swallow something the wrong way?
59834Ah, then the sun goes down every evening?
59834Ah,Mr. Clem cried,"for freedom, did you say?
59834An obligation? 59834 And I do n''t know myself any better, and are you presumed to know me better than I know myself?"
59834And are you going to assist a cause that is fighting against your own freedom, Dan?
59834And for pity sake, what have you got in this cup?
59834And has he said nothing as to what you shall do? 59834 And have n''t I interested you?"
59834And have you said all that you could say?
59834And how about your mother?
59834And if anyone tries to whip him, what are you going to do?
59834And shall I stay?
59834And what came of their love but death? 59834 And what made you think so?"
59834And why do all young Kentuckians have that hope? 59834 And will you go to bed too?"
59834And wo n''t you say so, too?
59834And you wo n''t own me there, will you?
59834Are you a human being?
59834Are you glad?
59834Are you going to shoot at the men who would free you?
59834Are you going to support him, sir?
59834Are you here, Dan?
59834Are you offended, Titine?
59834Boy,said he, riding up,"are you sure you have n''t swigged some of that liquor?"
59834But Bob''s gone; where is he? 59834 But am I to blame?
59834But ca n''t you understand that the country will not accept him, sir?
59834But did any one of those mouthfuls tell you that I considered slavery a God- ordained institution?
59834But did n''t you tell me that he was a wheel horse and would pull till both eyes popped out?
59834But do n''t I belong to God now?
59834But do n''t you read to her?
59834But do you think you can whip him?
59834But goodness me, Ole Miss, ai n''t you gwine gib me suthin''fur all dis?
59834But having seen, do you now come to sow eye- opening seeds, in fact, to scatter trouble?
59834But how do you happen to associate the two events?
59834But in this respect is he more narrow than others I could mention?
59834But is n''t it possible for a man to talk to himself? 59834 But is n''t there a danger in such early ripeness?"
59834But is there no hope left in the world?
59834But suppose you buy something and the dealer misrepresents it?
59834But tell me about the man and the marks on the stairs?
59834But was he honored for it?
59834But was n''t it the truth? 59834 But what is going to be done?"
59834But what would you have a man do? 59834 But what''s the matter with you this morning?
59834But whut da want ter sen''fur dis po'', muderless chile fur?
59834But why ca n''t he go to school at home? 59834 But why the devil do n''t you make discoveries of your own?"
59834But will you come down?
59834Can you go back there and sleep on a bed when I am told never to cross that threshold again? 59834 Cheat him?
59834Come, how much am I expected to pay? 59834 Dan"--and he looked up at me,"do you remember the time you threw the tumbler on his head?"
59834Dan, what''s the matter with you? 59834 Dan,"Old Miss cried,"why do n''t you bring in the things?
59834Dan,he said, rising up, and propping his shoulders against the head- board,"what was it you said last night about John Marston?"
59834Dan,he said,"do you know what I believe?"
59834Dan,she asked, clearing her throat with a dry rasp,"is n''t this one of your negro superstitions?
59834Did my Master say that I was to drive you?
59834Did n''t I tell you that you''d gone far enough in that direction?
59834Did n''t you? 59834 Did she turn up her nose very high?"
59834Did you ever know me to turn my back upon a friend? 59834 Did you invite me here to tell me this?
59834Did you say something to me about honor?
59834Do n''t you know why?
59834Do n''t you think there''s just a little pretense in all that-- this learned abstraction?
59834Do n''t you think you''d better speak to Old Master?
59834Do you hear that?
59834Do you hear what I say?
59834Do you honor him for it?
59834Do you know that what uncle said last night did n''t strike me very hard until just a few moments ago?
59834Do you know what they were talking about?
59834Do you know why he is coming back?
59834Do you mean to surrender your life wholly to law books?
59834Do you mean, sir, to tell me that you are raising a company of men to fight against your country?
59834Do you read the Bible, and do you find hope there?
59834Do you see anybody?
59834Do you see that chair?
59834Do you think that the war will be over within that time?
59834Do you want me to remain and take charge of things about the place?
59834Expect to be gone long?
59834Fishing?
59834Fo''gracious, whut''s de matter up at de house? 59834 Full of poetry?
59834General,Old Miss called,"who''s out there with you?"
59834Get through what?
59834Going for water at this time of night?
59834Got any good horses?
59834Got one you ca n''t manage? 59834 Guilford,"said he,"can it be possible that this is your son?"
59834Had he been in the community very long?
59834Has anyone a commission to give me? 59834 Has it come to a pass when I am not permitted to manage my own affairs?
59834Have many of the negroes gone away?
59834Have you ever noticed deep marks on the stairs out there?
59834Have you forgotten our contract?
59834Have you given your strange views to Miss May?
59834Hear of the row last night?
59834How about it, Dan?
59834How could I make anything of a thing that could never belong to me? 59834 How do you know I can write?"
59834How long does that man expect to stay?
59834How long has Master been sick?
59834How on earth did you get here?
59834I do n''t know what you mean, doctor?
59834I have been thinking,she said,"that we might--""Might do what?"
59834I know that, but I can, ca n''t I?
59834I will, but did he have any fun?
59834I wonder why the doctor does n''t come on?
59834In the same place?
59834In what way has he shown himself a gentleman?
59834In what way, Bob?
59834In what way?
59834Is Dan going with him?
59834Is it because you are from the sugar lands of Louisiana that salt is such a novelty to you?
59834Is it not divine here, in this air, blown fresh from paradise?
59834Is it possible?
59834Is the child asleep?
59834Is there a home for everyone but me?
59834Last night? 59834 Longer to get to it, I presume?"
59834Look here, sir; do you mean to draw a comparison between me and that negro?
59834Madam, what do you want?
59834Marster,I said,"wo n''t you please let me walk with you?"
59834Maw, what''s that?
59834May I have a few moments with this boy?
59834Must you? 59834 Not accept him?
59834Oh, I have insulted you, have I? 59834 Oh, do I forget it?"
59834Oh, going with your master? 59834 Oh, to tell me good- bye?
59834Oh, you are not going away, are you?
59834Oh, you did? 59834 Oh, you have studied, have you?
59834Oh, you have? 59834 Quiet life, do I hear?
59834Robert, what do you mean, sir? 59834 Sam, where are you?"
59834Shall we go out again?
59834She said that she thought that you might be induced--"Did n''t I say that would do?
59834So soon?
59834Study together? 59834 That''s all right, but do you make him stand up all the time?"
59834The girl you''ve been prancing around with lately?
59834The prints of a horse''s shoes?
59834To be pulled up by the sheriff?
59834Toddled into your way? 59834 Two fools, or one fool big enough for two?"
59834Uncle Clem, do you think we can get through within ninety days?
59834Walk with me? 59834 Want anything to eat?"
59834Was n''t it last night?
59834Was n''t your mare all right?
59834Well, for goodness sake, why do n''t you?
59834Well, that''s what I said, did n''t I?
59834Were you at the window last night when the doctor and I were standing down in the yard? 59834 What ails you, sir?"
59834What are you boys talking so loud about?
59834What are you doing here?
59834What are you doing in there?
59834What are you doing, Dan?
59834What are you going to do with him?
59834What are you running about this way for, tramping down everything? 59834 What did he tell you?"
59834What do you know about it?
59834What do you mean by that? 59834 What do you think of her, Dan?"
59834What do you want?
59834What good will a race rider do you? 59834 What had the man done?"
59834What has tickled you so?
59834What is it?
59834What is it?
59834What is that to you?
59834What is the use? 59834 What man?"
59834What means all this?
59834What sort of a creature is she? 59834 What time have you?"
59834What time is it?
59834What''s board worth?
59834What''s that to you, nighthawk? 59834 What''s that?
59834What''s that?
59834What, wine at supper, George?
59834What?
59834What?
59834When did you stop calling her May?
59834When did''she''go to town?
59834Where are you going?
59834Which way shall I grin?
59834Who is there to take me away?
59834Who the devil''s going to whip him, I''d like to know? 59834 Who told you that?
59834Whose boy is this?
59834Why do n''t you go in with some lawyer in town and be done with it?
59834Why do n''t you take it up?
59834Why do you come slipping in this way, Dan? 59834 Why impossible?"
59834Why of course?
59834Why of course?
59834Why, gracious alive, why do you let that fire smoke so?
59834Why, is that a poultice there on the mantle- piece?
59834Why, what did I say? 59834 Why?
59834Will you please let me come out and walk with you?
59834Will you please let me pass?
59834Will you? 59834 Wo n''t you have a glass?"
59834Wo n''t you sit down?
59834Wo n''t you stay longer, Uncle?
59834Would you think that a man could ride up those stairs?
59834Yes, General, it is perfectly fair, but--"But what, sir?
59834Yes, I will go-- But did you ever stop to reflect that while I might have been a humiliation and a bitterness, it was not my fault?
59834Yes, and we will both fight him, wo n''t we?
59834Yes, but I can whip you when I want to, ca n''t I?
59834Yes, but ca n''t you send him to school at the Academy in town?
59834Yes, sir, but what is it you want me to do?
59834Yes, you caught me, but what does it all amount to? 59834 Yes; why not?"
59834Yesterday? 59834 You belong to me, do n''t you?"
59834You boys going to sleep all day?
59834You ca n''t? 59834 You do n''t mean John Marston, of New Orleans?"
59834You expect to be gone then some time?
59834You have seen the girl that came with Miss May?
59834You mean that you will kill me?
59834You went to put down the window? 59834 You would n''t cheat him, would you, Uncle Clem?"
59834Ah, and this is the one you call Bob?
59834An''kain''t you lash in er little o''dat dead talk?
59834And after a pause she asked:"What''s your object in sending Bob over to school at Layfield?"
59834And did n''t my mother apologize, and did n''t my father try to make excuses for me, doctor?"
59834And getting up, he added:"Come, show him to me?"
59834And is n''t there wisdom in all truth?"
59834And is not a grandeur almost a sacred thing?"
59834And now this is what I have agreed to do: to take Dan and wait until you are ready--""You have agreed with whom, sir?"
59834And she has caught you?
59834And that very night, sir, did n''t you slip away and play poker over the creek?"
59834And then I tremblingly asked:"Is he dead?"
59834And then after a silence, asked:"Do you think that I have been drinking to- night?"
59834And then he added:"Will you do as I bid you?"
59834And was n''t there a grandeur in that?
59834And what of that?"
59834And why did you want to put down the window, sir?"
59834And, after a silence, he said:"If anybody starts to whip you, do n''t make any difference who it is, come and tell me, wo n''t you?"
59834And, by the way, who''s that riding along the pike?
59834Are you going to spend your life in servitude?"
59834Are you going to the pic- nic over at Fletcher''s Grove?"
59834Are you going?"
59834Are you scared?"
59834Because Kentucky has produced so many orators?
59834Bob, do you know what would happen if they should dab any of their tar on me?"
59834Bob, got a horse you want to trade for a better one?
59834Bob, how are you this morning?"
59834Bob, old Potter is a hot rebel, is n''t he?"
59834Bob; but do you think it is an honorable thing to do?"
59834Bob?"
59834Bob?"
59834But do you think,"I asked after musing for a time,"that we''ll know each other up there and talk about the time when we were down here?"
59834But have n''t we had a time?
59834But have you lost your sense of obedience, and at such a time as this?"
59834But how high could she look?
59834But if a nigger angel beats a white angel flying, there''ll be trouble, wo n''t there?"
59834But is n''t it dull about here?
59834But say, Bob, was n''t there a little love mixed up in what you were saying as I came in?"
59834But tell me, is salt very high here, or do you use a great deal of it?"
59834But tell me, what are you going to do?
59834But why should I long for the sun to rise to pour light upon the blood in the lane?
59834But will they let you take the buggy?"
59834But you do n''t mean that you have fallen in love with her so soon?"
59834By the way, have you seen the doctor to- day?"
59834Ca n''t he learn something here?"
59834Can you?"
59834Come on and lie down and let me stay there awhile?"
59834Confound it, have n''t I told you that he belongs to Bob?"
59834Could any human being blame me for struggling to save my life?
59834Could it be that she was thinking of accepting him?
59834D-- you, will you do it?"
59834Dan?
59834Dan?"
59834Did I ever hear anything like that?
59834Did anyone ever tell you that your mother was handsome?"
59834Did n''t he stay here last night?"
59834Did n''t you complain that you were too sick to get up?
59834Did n''t you put him up to it?"
59834Did you get out of bed when they sent for you one night to see old Aunt Mag?
59834Did you kill a man?"
59834Do n''t you know that the first step toward making love to a woman is to interest her by something you do or say?"
59834Do n''t you?"
59834Do you believe that the ownership of a hundred slaves should open all doors to a coarse and ignorant man?"
59834Do you believe that?"
59834Do you dance?"
59834Do you hear me?
59834Do you hear me?"
59834Do you hear me?"
59834Do you hear me?"
59834Do you hear?"
59834Do you hear?"
59834Do you hear?"
59834Do you know one thing that I''m going to do if I''m permitted to go home?"
59834Do you know what I am saying?"
59834Do you know what she did?
59834Do you need me now?"
59834Do you reflect upon how short a time we have known each other?"
59834Do you remember him?"
59834Do you remember what the poet said?"
59834Do you remember, Dan?"
59834Do you think we are going to suffer it to go to pieces, that we will submit to disruption as long as there is an arm to strike?
59834Do you understand?"
59834Do you?
59834Does he hold prayers of a morning?
59834Does your mother know about it?"
59834General, do n''t you think that his shrewd sophistry more than ever fits him for the law?"
59834George, would n''t you?"
59834Goin''to learn him any sort of trade?
59834Has a father ever taken more care of a son''s education than I have of yours?
59834Has n''t he told you that you must go with him?
59834Has your young master told you that he is preparing himself for examination?
59834Have n''t you read of the angle- worm oil bearer at the Olympian games?"
59834Have the revivalists brought about a change of heart?"
59834Have you ever seen it?"
59834He turned his eyes toward me and said:"You remember that about two months ago a gentleman named Potter bought the old Jamison place, over on the pike?
59834Here, you are a young fellow of parts waiting for what?
59834How are you getting along, Guilford?"
59834How can they, when they have tried to kill us?"
59834How long did Romeo know Juliet?"
59834How long will it take you to learn that?
59834How''s my horse coming on, Dan?
59834I believe you said yesterday that our carriage is getting too old for you to ride about in?"
59834I cried,"after I have written a letter for you?"
59834I hesitated a moment, looking at him, and then I asked:"Master, did you kill a man?"
59834I hope you do not wish to get her off your hands?"
59834I say, do n''t you?"
59834I suppose you mean her father?
59834I told him, and he asked laughingly if I were a descendant of the Daniel who was cast into the lion''s den?
59834If she should meet you in the road she would say,''who''s your master, boy?
59834Is that Bob or Clem coming up the stairs?
59834Is that someone at the door?"
59834Is that what you mean?"
59834Know what I would have done?
59834Let us be fellow servants, Dan?"
59834Let us go Sunday, after dinner?"
59834Let us go into the house?"
59834Let''s go and look at him?"
59834Let''s go in swimming?"
59834Let''s sheer off this way and go back to the house?"
59834Lincoln will be nominated for the presidency as sure as you live, and the chances are that he''ll get in, and then what?
59834Look at de folks all runnin''er roun''?
59834Make a nice prisoner for me to take in, eh?"
59834Mason had an educated negro, and what became of him?
59834Master thundered,"do n''t you know that the boy belongs to Bob?
59834May, I am no longer as poor a man as I was--""But, brother, has anyone reproached you with your poverty?"
59834Mean it?"
59834Mean that as a gentleman Mr. Potter is a North Pole to you and is therefore beyond your discovery?
59834Miss May, can I bring you anything?"
59834Must I keep forever dinging it into your ears?"
59834My mind was apt and it stored many images and caught many a color from my surroundings, and-- but what is the use of talking about myself?"
59834Now, I ask you if that is not fair?"
59834Object to what?"
59834Of course you know that my wife''s share, whatever it may amount to, will fall to me?"
59834Of course, he is as yet too young to be consulted, General, but have you thought upon any profession for him?"
59834Of what good will be her protest?
59834Of what use is an ear when you turn it from heart- felt praise to catch the unsympathetic tones of average life?
59834Oh, young Mr. Gradley, eh?
59834Old aristocracy still on its mouldering throne, eh?
59834One more moment, please?
59834Ought I to keep my word with a wolf?
59834Ought to walk; for do n''t the Bible say something about how beautiful are the feet of those that tread the path of righteousness?
59834Overcome a band of Mexicans and win a new territory, or save his entire country?"
59834Say something that I may regret?
59834Say, did you notice an old fellow with a white hat, riding a chestnut horse?
59834See this?"
59834See what confidence I have in you?
59834She hated you and who could blame her?
59834Suppose we go on toward the house?
59834Tarred and feathered him, eh?
59834Tell me more of your adventures?"
59834Tell me, do you believe in a democratic form of government?"
59834Tell nature that you wanted to marry another piece of yellow property?
59834That will do, wo n''t it?"
59834The doctor turned nervously, looked at me and said:"Will you please move a little?"
59834The hoofs fell slower, and a voice replied:"That you, Clem Gradley?
59834Then what would you do?
59834Then, why do you care to own a man?
59834They might put the stuff on me, but do you know what would happen after they got all through with their fun?
59834To whom do we owe most, the silver buckled gentleman or the steeple- hatted puritan?"
59834Uncle Clem, do you think that I''m stilted in my talk?"
59834Upon a near approach though, I was disappointed, not at its size, but at its quietude; for if our creek could sing, why did not this river shout?
59834Was intuition preparing me for a trial to come, a struggle waiting down the mystic road?
59834Was it that he had gone thus early to the authorities to beg for my life?
59834We''ll hang on here a while longer, wo n''t we, Dan?"
59834Well,"he added after a pause,"do you want to stay here to- night, or shall we stop on the road?"
59834Well,"he said, noticing that I was still holding the bridle,"are you going to let me go, or must I stand here until you are ready to release me?"
59834Well-- what was that?
59834What are you doing, Bob?"
59834What are you doing, young feller?"
59834What are you so glum about to- night?"
59834What could have put that into your head?"
59834What did I do?
59834What did she do?"
59834What do you know about a horse, sir?"
59834What do you mean by that?"
59834What do you say?"
59834What do you want to stand there for like a chicken with the gapes?"
59834What does she expect?"
59834What else was there?
59834What good would breaking the pitcher do?
59834What has made this country great, the gentility of Virginia or the dogged industry of New England?
59834What led to conquest?
59834What sort of stock are you boys riding?
59834What the devil is the matter with you, boy?"
59834What were you doing so long?
59834What''s board worth in this neighborhood?"
59834What''s his name?
59834What''s that in the Bible,''sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof''?
59834What''s that you say?
59834When do you expect to go?"
59834Which side do you favor?
59834Who gave the slaves to Rome?
59834Who said anything about my killing a man?"
59834Who''s fault?
59834Why ca n''t we all get out of this miserable world and be done with it?"
59834Why not send Sam with him?''"
59834Why should I feel the fetters of honor chaffing me?
59834Why should there be any hope for him or for anyone?
59834Why the deuce do n''t these people come on to breakfast?"
59834Why, do n''t you know they would have hanged you long before this time?
59834Why, people have to kill men who try to kill them, do n''t they?
59834Will you do as I tell you?"
59834Will you write de letter fur me?"
59834Wo n''t I?"
59834Wo n''t you, Robert?"
59834Wot''s all right there, ai n''t it?
59834Would I break up the Union rather than lose the slaves?
59834Would he keep his contract with me?
59834You are a man of education and are closely connected with one of the best families in this proud State, and now what prompts you to tread upon me?"
59834You do n''t mean that she will secede from the Union?"
59834You say Titine does n''t love you?"
59834You thought it was going to rain?"
59834You told me that you would practice medicine on the plantation after you were married, but did you?"
59834You--""Who is?"
59834was that your mistress calling me?
7140''Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before? 7140 ''The question,''Mr. Lincoln replied,''was,"Why does man have breasts?"''
7140''Well, what about General King?'' 7140 ''Well,''he said,''are you on good terms with Price and King?''
7140***On the vote to repeal the Fugitive Slave Law, how did that( Democratic) side of the House vote?
7140And suppose they could be induced by a Proclamation of Freedom from me to throw themselves upon us, what should we do with them? 7140 Are you prepared for such a change in the institutions of your country?
7140But what more was done? 7140 But why should Emancipation South, send the freed people North?
7140Dependenceupon whom, and with regard to what?
7140Descendants of the same people inhabit the country; yet what is the reason of this vast difference? 7140 He said,''Wo n''t General Price vote for it?
7140How will it be with New England? 7140 I ask the Senator to recollect, too, what, save to send aid and comfort to the Enemy, do these predictions of his amount to?
7140If, then, for a common object, this Property is to be sacrificed, is it not just that it be done at a common charge? 7140 If, then, we are at some time to be as populous as Europe, how soon?
7140Is it doubted, then, that the plan I propose, if adopted, would shorten the War, and thus lessen its expenditure of money and of blood? 7140 Is it true, then, that Colored people can displace any more White labor by being Free, than by remaining Slaves?
7140Is there no Justice in putting an end to human Slavery? 7140 It is not,''Can any of us imagine better?''
7140Now, I ask any plain common- sense man what was the meaning of that? 7140 Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a Proclamation as you desire?
7140Question.--And of course an abandonment of the purpose for which you were there? 7140 Question.--At that time General Patterson felt it was so important to attack Johnston that he had determined to do it?
7140Question.--Behind his intrenchments? 7140 Question.--Did not General Patterson issue orders at Bunker Hill, the night before you marched to Charlestown, for an attack on the Enemy?
7140Question.--Even if you had received a check there, it would have prevented his junction with the forces at Manassas? 7140 Question.--That order was not countermanded until late on Tuesday, the 16th, was it?
7140Question.--You understood General Patterson to be influenced to make that attempt because he felt there was a necessity for detaining Johnston? 7140 Question[ by the Chairman].--Did he[ Patterson] assign any reason for that movement?
7140Shall one battle determine the fate of empire, or a dozen?--the loss of one thousand men, or twenty thousand? 7140 The question is, if the Colored people are persuaded to go anywhere, why not there?
7140Was it possible to lose the Nation and yet preserve the Constitution? 7140 What are the uses of decisions of Courts?
7140What else was done at the very same session? 7140 What good would a Proclamation of Emancipation from me do, especially as we are now situated?
7140What says the Preamble to the Constitution? 7140 What troops are those?"
7140What,said he, referring to Mr. Ross,"has been the course of that gentleman and his Party on this floor in regard to voting supplies to the Army?
7140Whether such language is not Treason?
7140Why should they leave this Country? 7140 Why should this Property be exempt from the hazards and consequences of a rebellious War?
7140Why was not this taken and accepted? 7140 Will you ever submit to a warfare waged by the Southern States to establish Slavery in Illinois?
7140''Must a Government of necessity be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence?''
7140*** But you may ask me what are these rights and these privileges?
7140*** How has the planting of Slavery in new countries always been effected?
7140*** On the subject of arming Slaves, of putting Negroes into the Army, how has my colleague and his Party voted?
7140*** This being so, what is Judge Douglas going to spend his life for?
7140*** What can authorize him to draw any such inference?
7140*** What cause is there for further alarm in the Southern States, so far as the Territories are concerned?
7140*** What is fairly implied by the term Judge Douglas has used,''resistance to the decision?''
7140*** What is now the case?
7140*** Who did it?
7140*** Will it be any more valid?
7140***"''Question.--In what direction would Johnston have had to move to get by you?
7140***"I ask Mr. Lincoln how it is that he purposes ultimately to bring about this uniformity in each and all the States of the Union?
7140***"You may ask, why does the South want us to do it by Constitutional Amendment, when we have just done it voluntarily by Law?
7140******"What more, then, is demanded?
7140********* Question[ by the Chairman].--Would there have been any difficulty in preventing Johnston from going to Manassas?
7140*********"Question.--While at Bunker Hill, the night before you left there, were any orders issued to march in the evening?
7140**********''Question[ by the Chairman].--And that left Johnston free?
7140--said Davies--"and can they get through that road?"
7140--you ask--"What next?"
7140A Freeman?
7140After assisting him in checking his steed, the President said to me:''He came pretty near getting away with me, did n''t he?
7140And Farnsworth met this idea-- which had also been advanced by Messrs. Ross, Fernando Wood, and Pruyn-- by saying:"What constitutes property?
7140And as it is to so go, at all, events, may we not agree that the sooner the better?
7140And as to Oligarchal rule-- the rule of the few( and those the Southern chiefs) over the many,--was not that already accomplished?
7140And how is it, that Johnston gets away from Patterson so neatly?
7140And if such is the case, what are we to hope in the future?
7140And is it not needed whenever it helps us and hurts the Enemy?
7140And then cried the orator- his voice rising to a higher key, penetrating, yet musical as the blast from a silver trumpet:"What would he have?
7140And then, having succeeded in convincing himself of Republican failure, he exultingly exclaimed:"But why enumerate?
7140And to this more than fair proposition to the Southerners-- to this touching appeal in behalf of Peace-- what was the response?
7140And we are asked by one of my colleagues,( Mr. Cox) does the gentleman from New York intend to call us Traitors?
7140And what can that purpose be, but to throw his augmented right upon our left, at Blackburn''s Ford, and so, along the ridge- road, upon Centreville?
7140And what have we seen?
7140And what is this"republican"form of government, thus pledged?
7140And what next?
7140And what was the chief cause or pretext for discontent at that time?
7140And what was the response of the South to this generous and conciliatory message?
7140And when does he do it?
7140And whose the sacrilegious hand that dared be first raised against his Country and his Country''s flag?
7140And why may we not continue that ratio far beyond that period?
7140And why the hasty after- indorsement of the decision, by the President and others?
7140And, above all, is it consistent with any notion, which the mind of man can conceive, of human Liberty?"
7140And, in any event, can not the North decide for itself, whether to receive them?
7140Another, Mr. Charles E. Lex( a Republican), speaking of the Southern People, said:"What, then, can we say to them?
7140Are they not already in the Land?
7140Are they not intended for disorganization in our very midst?
7140Are they not intended to animate our enemies?
7140Are they not intended to destroy our zeal?
7140Are they not intended to dull our weapons?
7140Are we to predict evil, and retire from what we predict?
7140Are we to stop and talk about an uprising sentiment in the North against the War?
7140Are you for it?
7140Are you for it?
7140As a political question and a question of humanity, can I receive the services of a father and mother, and not take the children?
7140Aye, what next?
7140Benjamin, why do you not vote?
7140But do you think they are so perfectly moulded to their state as to be insensible that a better exists?
7140But how can we attain it?
7140But the matter regarded by him of larger moment-- the safety of the Union-- how about that?
7140But to return to Military operations: On December 10th?
7140But what have we seen?
7140But what would be the effect upon South Carolina?
7140Can I have fifty?
7140Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
7140Can aliens make treaties, easier than friends can make laws?
7140Can not this last bloody battle be avoided?''
7140Can the Union endure under such a system of policy?
7140Can their self love be so totally annihilated as not frequently to induce ardent wishes for a change?
7140Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?
7140Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
7140Can we Abolish Slavery in the Loyal State of Kentucky against her will?
7140Can we account for it to ourselves, gentlemen?
7140Can we afford to send them forward to their masters, to be by them armed against us, or used in producing supplies to sustain the Rebellion?
7140Can we do anything more?
7140Continuing, he said:"What more do the Southern States want?
7140Could I get a hundred tolerably intelligent men, with their wives and children, and able to''cut their own fodder''so to speak?
7140Could the one, in any way, greatly disturb the seven?
7140Do not its principles and theories become daily more fixed in our practice?
7140Do we not know it to be so?
7140Do we not know that they have been anxious for a change of Government for years?
7140Do we not know this?"
7140Do you mean that I am to concede the benefits of the political struggle through which we have passed, considered politically, only?
7140Do you mean that I am to give up my convictions of right?
7140Do you mean that we are to deny the great principle upon which our political action has been based?
7140Do you suppose we shall do nothing, even upon the sea?
7140Do you think differently?
7140Do you visit the North in the Summer?
7140Does it appear otherwise to you?
7140Does not the Fugitive Slave Law affect the Black soldier in the Army who was a Slave?
7140Does the Free Republic of the United States exist, in fact, to- day?
7140Does timidity ask WHEN?
7140From your Custom- houses?
7140Gooch].--Was it not the intention to move from Bunker Hill to Winchester?
7140Has Congress any power over the subject of Slavery in Kentucky or Virginia or any other State of this Union?
7140Has he not stolen a march and sent re- enforcements toward Manassas Junction?
7140Has it more waste surface by mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts, or other causes?
7140Have we not at the South, as well as the North, grown great, prosperous, and happy under its operations?
7140How can this be done?
7140How can we feed and care for such a multitude?
7140How can we, by conceding what you now ask, relieve you and the Country from the increasing pressure to which you refer?
7140How did that side of the House vote on the question of arming Slaves and paying them as soldiers?
7140How does it happen that we have not had unanimity enough to agree on any measure of that kind?
7140How is he going to do it?
7140How long have we been at War?
7140How many letters of marque and reprisal would it take to put the whole of your ships up at your wharves to rot?
7140How will he do it?
7140How?
7140I said to Mr. Pickens,''What next do you propose we shall do?
7140I submit to you, my fellow- citizens, whether such a line of policy is consistent with the peace and harmony of the Country?
7140If Rebellion and bloodshed and murder have followed, to whose skirts does the responsibility attach?
7140If one man says it does not mean a Negro, why not say it does not mean some other man?
7140If such persons have what will be an advantage to them, the question is, whether it can not be made of advantage to you?
7140In answer to his compliments about the comfortable location I had made, I said:''Very comfortable, General, when shall we move on?''
7140In that event, could you stand the reaction feeling which the suffering commerce of Charleston would probably manifest?
7140In what do our new Territories now differ in this respect from the old Colonies when Slavery was first planted within them?
7140In what way can that Compromise be used to keep Lee''s Army out of Pennsylvania?
7140Is he going to spend his life in maintaining a principle that no body on earth opposes?
7140Is it doubted that it would restore the National authority and National prosperity, and perpetuate both indefinitely?
7140Is it inferior to Europe in any natural advantage?
7140Is it less fertile?
7140Is it not a mere usurpation without any known mode of justification, under any existing Code of Laws, human or Divine?"]
7140Is it not a time when the measure is most likely to produce danger and mischief to the Country at large?
7140Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
7140Is it worth our while to continue this union of States, where the North demands to be our masters and we are required to be their tributaries?
7140Is that what you mean?
7140Is there a single Court or Magistrate, or individual that would be influenced by it there?
7140Is there no danger to the Tranquillity of the Country in its existence?
7140Is there, has there ever been, any question that, by the Law of War, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?
7140It forces us to ask:''Is there in all republics, this inherent and fatal weakness?''
7140It has the sanction of God''s own Apostle; for when Paul sent back Onesimus to Philemon, whom did he send?
7140It is only a week ago last Monday, that a Bill was introduced here to punish guerrillas*** and how did my colleague vote?
7140Look to the illustrations which the times now afford, how, in the illustration of that sentiment, do we differ from the Black man?
7140May it not interfere with the common Defense and general Welfare?
7140May they not pronounce all Slaves Free?
7140May they not think that these call for the abolition of Slavery?
7140Mr. Lincoln*** more than once exclaimed:''Must more blood be shed?
7140My friends, is it possible to preserve Peace between the North and the South if such a doctrine shall prevail in either Section of the Union?
7140Not that he feared the North-- but the South; how would the wayward, wilful, passionate South, receive his proffered olive- branch?
7140Now, what do we find?
7140Now, who was it that did the work?
7140Object whatsoever is possible, still the question recurs,''Can we do better?
7140Odell].--Had you any such understanding with Patterson?
7140Odell].--You covered his movement?
7140Of all the times when an attempt was ever made to carry this measure, is not this the most inauspicious?
7140One party to a contract may violate it-- break it, so to speak; but does it not require all, to lawfully rescind it?
7140Or would he conduct this War so feebly, that the whole World would smile at us in derision?"
7140Our position for renewing the action the next morning was excellent; whence, then, our failure?
7140President?''
7140Shall we send a flag of Truce?
7140Simply that a Constitutional Amendment shall be adopted, affirming-- what?
7140Sir, are they not words of brilliant, polished Treason, even in the very Capitol of the Nation?
7140Sir, how can we make Peace?
7140Sir, how can we retreat?
7140Sir, is not this a remarkable spectacle?
7140Suppose he does re- enact the same law which the Court has pronounced unconstitutional, will that make it Constitutional?
7140The immediate Secessionists, or those who are opposed to separate State action at this time?
7140The only question now was, how to get rid of it?
7140The question, then, naturally arises, what are those rights and privileges, and what is the nature and extent of them?
7140These speeches of his, sown broadcast over the Land, what clear distinct meaning have they?
7140To mob law, to partisan caucuses, to town meetings, to revolution?
7140To whom shall you appeal?
7140Upon what terms?
7140WHAT NEXT?
7140WHAT NEXT?
7140Warming up, he proceeded to say:"Can the Union be restored by War?
7140Was it Mr. Clark?
7140Was it that they believed a Monarchical form of government was incompatible with civil liberty?
7140Was it that they were opposed to a Monarchical form of government?
7140Was it the firing on our flag at Sumter?
7140Was that the first adversary passage?
7140Well, so much being disposed of, what is left?
7140Well, suppose he is; what is he going to do about it?
7140Were it his own, would he not have said in"making"it, instead of in"stating"it?
7140What American is not proud of the result?
7140What Commissioners?
7140What Next?
7140What better Compromise could have been made?
7140What can it be?
7140What could I do?
7140What do those terms mean when used now?
7140What do those terms mean?
7140What good does it do to pass a second Act?
7140What has become of it?
7140What has become of that Squatter Sovereignty?
7140What has been their course in regard to raising money to pay the Army?
7140What has now become of all his tirade about''resistance to the Supreme Court?''"
7140What is Popular Sovereignty?
7140What is War?
7140What is it?
7140What more can any man demand?
7140What more?
7140What of future hopes?
7140What of past glories?
7140What should be done with them?
7140What then?
7140What then?
7140What was Squatter Sovereignty?
7140What were they but a clear indication that the framers of the Constitution intended and expected the ultimate extinction of that institution?
7140What will become of Constitutional Government?
7140What will become of public Liberty?
7140What would be its fate there?
7140What would he have?
7140What would our condition be in the event of the greatest calamity that could befall this Nation?"
7140What''vested right''has any man or State in Property in Man?
7140When the navigation laws cease to operate, what will become of your shipping interest?
7140When this Tariff ceases to operate in your favor, and you have to pay for coming into our markets, what will you export?
7140When your machinery ceases to move, and your operatives are turned out, will you tax your broken capitalist or your starving operative?
7140Where is Rome, once the mistress of the World?
7140Where is it?
7140Where is the remedy when you refuse obedience to the constituted authorities?"
7140Where is to be your boundary line?
7140Where the end of the principles we shall have to give up?
7140Which party will prevail?
7140Who defeated it?
7140Who heard of any such thing, because of the Ordinance of''87?
7140Who is responsible for it?
7140Who is so bold as to do it?
7140Who shall treat?
7140Who would go?
7140Who, then, has brought these evils on the Country?
7140Who, then, shall come in at this day and claim that he invented it?
7140Whose fault was it?
7140Why better after the retraction than before the issue?
7140Why declare that within twenty years the African Slave Trade, by which Slaves are supplied, might be cut off by Congress?
7140Why deprive him of supplies by a blockade, and voluntarily give him men to produce them?
7140Why disguise this great truth?
7140Why even a Senator''s individual opinion withheld, till after the Presidential election?
7140Why is this so?
7140Why may not our Country at some time, average as many?
7140Why not save this Proposition, and see if we can not bring the Country to it?''
7140Why not?
7140Why should they do anything for us if we will do nothing for them?
7140Why the delay of a re- argument?
7140Why the incoming President''s advance exhortation in favor of the decision?
7140Why the outgoing President''s felicitation on the indorsement?
7140Why this sad difference?
7140Why was the Court decision held up?
7140Why was the amendment, expressly declaring the right of the people, voted down?
7140Why were all these acts?
7140Will he be able to convince the Court that the second Act is valid, when the first is invalid and void?
7140Will he shrink from armed Insurrection?
7140Will his State justify it?
7140Will it be said the South required in addition to this, laws of Congress to protect Slavery in the Territories?
7140Will its better public opinion allow it?
7140Will liberation make them any more numerous?
7140Will that do any good?
7140Will that success continue?
7140Will the Senator yield to Rebellion?
7140Will the galling comparison between themselves and their masters leave them unenlightened in this respect?
7140Will you not embrace it?
7140Will you not embrace it?
7140Would it be less than stealing?"
7140Would my word free the Slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the Rebel States?
7140Would we not be in the wrong?"
7140Would you not lose that in which your strength consists, the union of your people?
7140You ask, what is the general''s opinion, upon this subject?
7140You here are Freemen, I suppose?
7140You will ask in this view, how do you consult the benefit of the slaves?
7140and will they not be warranted by that power?
7140and"whether it is in order to talk Treason in this Hall?"
7140are we to tell the People that Republicanism is a failure?
7140because of the Missouri Restriction because of the numerous Court decisions of that character?
7140but,''Can we all do better?''
7140or is it not manifest that there is no just title?
7140or one hundred million or five hundred million dollars?
7140what do you export?
7140what more than we have expressed in the resolutions we have offered?
7140where will their revenue come from?
7140why have not the People of that Heaven- favored clime, the spirit that animated their fathers?
57383''Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before? 57383 ''The question,''Mr. Lincoln replied,''was,"Why does man have breasts?"''
57383''Well, what about General King?'' 57383 ''Well,''he said,''are you on good terms with Price and King?''
57383***On the vote to repeal the Fugitive Slave Law, how did that( Democratic) side of the House vote?

57383Any eggs?
57383Any flour or grain?
57383Any guerrillas?
57383Are you a member of the other House?
57383Are you prepared for such a change in the institutions of your country? 57383 Are you the Governor of a State?"
57383But what more was done? 57383 But why should Emancipation South, send the freed people North?
57383Certainly not"Have you ever had a vote of thanks by name?
57383Dependenceupon whom, and with regard to what?
57383Descendants of the same people inhabit the country; yet what is the reason of this vast difference? 57383 Do you think you could become so interested in my conversation as not to notice the door- keeper?"
57383Have you any meat?
57383He said,''Wo n''t General Price vote for it? 57383 How will it be with New England?
57383I ask the Senator to recollect, too, what, save to send aid and comfort to the Enemy, do these predictions of his amount to? 57383 If, then, for a common object, this Property is to be sacrificed, is it not just that it be done at a common charge?
57383If, then, we are at some time to be as populous as Europe, how soon? 57383 Is anybody in the house?"
57383Is it a good road, and how far?
57383Is it doubted, then, that the plan I propose, if adopted, would shorten the War, and thus lessen its expenditure of money and of blood? 57383 Is it locked up?"
57383Is it true, then, that Colored people can displace any more White labor by being Free, than by remaining Slaves? 57383 Is no one about who can get in?"
57383Is there no Justice in putting an end to human Slavery? 57383 It is not,''Can any of us imagine better?''
57383Now, I ask any plain common- sense man what was the meaning of that? 57383 Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a Proclamation as you desire?
57383Now, where is the proper place to break it?
57383Question. � And of course an abandonment of the purpose for which you were there? 57383 Question. � At that time General Patterson felt it was so important to attack Johnston that he had determined to do it?
57383Question. � Behind his intrenchments? 57383 Question. � Did not General Patterson issue orders at Bunker Hill, the night before you marched to Charlestown, for an attack on the Enemy?
57383Question. � Even if you had received a check there, it would have prevented his junction with the forces at Manassas? 57383 Question. � That order was not countermanded until late on Tuesday, the 16th, was it?
57383Question. � You understood General Patterson to be influenced to make that attempt because he felt there was a necessity for detaining Johnston? 57383 Question[ by Mr. Odell]. � Had you any such understanding with Patterson?
57383Question[ by Mr. Odell]. � You covered his movement? 57383 Question[ by the Chairman]. � Did he[ Patterson] assign any reason for that movement?
57383Shall one battle determine the fate of empire, or a dozen? � the loss of one thousand men, or twenty thousand? 57383 The question is, if the Colored people are persuaded to go anywhere, why not there?
57383Was it possible to lose the Nation and yet preserve the Constitution? 57383 Well, ai n''t you on our side?"
57383Well,said he,"did n''t you think it was the biggest shuck and the littlest ear that ever you did see?"
57383Well,said he,"did you see him take it off?"
57383Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
57383Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
57383What appointment?
57383What are the uses of decisions of Courts? 57383 What do you know of Uncle Billy?"
57383What do you live on?
57383What else was done at the very same session? 57383 What good would a Proclamation of Emancipation from me do, especially as we are now situated?
57383What is to be done with the freedmen?
57383What is your badge?
57383What says the Preamble to the Constitution? 57383 What troops are those?"
57383What,said he, referring to Mr. Ross,"has been the course of that gentleman and his Party on this floor in regard to voting supplies to the Army?
57383Where?
57383Whether such language is not Treason?
57383Why should they leave this Country? 57383 Why should this Property be exempt from the hazards and consequences of a rebellious War?
57383Why was not this taken and accepted? 57383 Why?"
57383Will you ever submit to a warfare waged by the Southern States to establish Slavery in Illinois? 57383 � you ask �"What next?"
57383''Must a Government of necessity be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence?''
57383*** But you may ask me what are these rights and these privileges?
57383*** How has the planting of Slavery in new countries always been effected?
57383*** On the subject of arming Slaves, of putting Negroes into the Army, how has my colleague and his Party voted?
57383*** This being so, what is Judge Douglas going to spend his life for?
57383*** What can authorize him to draw any such inference?
57383*** What cause is there for further alarm in the Southern States, so far as the Territories are concerned?
57383*** What is fairly implied by the term Judge Douglas has used,''resistance to the decision?''
57383*** What is now the case?
57383*** Who did it?
57383*** Will it be any more valid?
57383***"''Question. � In what direction would Johnston have had to move to get by you?
57383***"I ask Mr. Lincoln how it is that he purposes ultimately to bring about this uniformity in each and all the States of the Union?
57383***"You may ask, why does the South want us to do it by Constitutional Amendment, when we have just done it voluntarily by Law?
57383******"What more, then, is demanded?
57383********* Question[ by the Chairman]. � Would there have been any difficulty in preventing Johnston from going to Manassas?
57383*********"Question. � While at Bunker Hill, the night before you left there, were any orders issued to march in the evening?
57383**********''Question[ by the Chairman]. � And that left Johnston free?
573831, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
573839:45 p.m."LIEUTENANT- GENERAL GRANT:"Would it not be well for Warren to go down with his whole corps and smash up the force in front of Sheridan?
57383A Freeman?
57383A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
57383After assisting him in checking his steed, the President said to me:''He came pretty near getting away with me, did n''t he?
57383After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
57383And Farnsworth met this idea � which had also been advanced by Messrs. Ross, Fernando Wood, and Pruyn � by saying:"What constitutes property?
57383And as it is to so go, at all, events, may we not agree that the sooner the better?
57383And as to Oligarchal rule � the rule of the few( and those the Southern chiefs) over the many, � was not that already accomplished?
57383And how is it, that Johnston gets away from Patterson so neatly?
57383And if such is the case, what are we to hope in the future?
57383And is it not needed whenever it helps us and hurts the Enemy?
57383And then cried the orator- his voice rising to a higher key, penetrating, yet musical as the blast from a silver trumpet:"What would he have?
57383And then, having succeeded in convincing himself of Republican failure, he exultingly exclaimed:"But why enumerate?
57383And to this more than fair proposition to the Southerners � to this touching appeal in behalf of Peace � what was the response?
57383And we are asked by one of my colleagues,( Mr. Cox) does the gentleman from New York intend to call us Traitors?
57383And what can that purpose be, but to throw his augmented right upon our left, at Blackburn''s Ford, and so, along the ridge- road, upon Centreville?
57383And what have we seen?
57383And what is this"republican"form of government, thus pledged?
57383And what next?
57383And what was the chief cause or pretext for discontent at that time?
57383And what was the response of the South to this generous and conciliatory message?
57383And when does he do it?
57383And whose the sacrilegious hand that dared be first raised against his Country and his Country''s flag?
57383And why may we not continue that ratio far beyond that period?
57383And why the hasty after- indorsement of the decision, by the President and others?
57383And, above all, is it consistent with any notion, which the mind of man can conceive, of human Liberty?"
57383And, in any event, can not the North decide for itself, whether to receive them?
57383Another, Mr. Charles E. Lex( a Republican), speaking of the Southern People, said:"What, then, can we say to them?
57383Are they not already in the Land?
57383Are they not intended for disorganization in our very midst?
57383Are they not intended to animate our enemies?
57383Are they not intended to destroy our zeal?
57383Are they not intended to dull our weapons?
57383Are we to predict evil, and retire from what we predict?
57383Are we to stop and talk about an uprising sentiment in the North against the War?
57383Are you for it?
57383Are you for it?
57383As I drew up by the party, Bismarck accosted me with,"Well, General, are n''t you hungry?
57383As a political question and a question of humanity, can I receive the services of a father and mother, and not take the children?
57383At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
57383At this General Grant remarked:"Did he say so?
57383Aye, what next?
57383Benjamin, why do you not vote?
57383But do you think they are so perfectly moulded to their state as to be insensible that a better exists?
57383But how can we attain it?
57383But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?
57383But the matter regarded by him of larger moment � the safety of the Union � how about that?
57383But to return to Military operations: On December 10th?
57383But what have we seen?
57383But what next?
57383But what would be the effect upon South Carolina?
57383Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
57383Can Grant supply himself from the Mississippi?
57383Can I have fifty?
57383Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
57383Can aliens make treaties, easier than friends can make laws?
57383Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
57383Can not this last bloody battle be avoided?''
57383Can the Union endure under such a system of policy?
57383Can their self love be so totally annihilated as not frequently to induce ardent wishes for a change?
57383Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?
57383Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
57383Can we Abolish Slavery in the Loyal State of Kentucky against her will?
57383Can we account for it to ourselves, gentlemen?
57383Can we afford to send them forward to their masters, to be by them armed against us, or used in producing supplies to sustain the Rebellion?
57383Can we do anything more?
57383Can we whip the South?
57383Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?
57383Continuing, he said:"What more do the Southern States want?
57383Could I get a hundred tolerably intelligent men, with their wives and children, and able to''cut their own fodder''so to speak?
57383Could not such a camp be established about Pocotaligo or Coosawhatchie?
57383Could not such escaped slaves find at least a partial supply of food in the rice- fields about Savannah, and cotton plantations on the coast?
57383Could not your cavalry go back by the way of Stony Creek depot and destroy or capture the store of supplies there?
57383Could the one, in any way, greatly disturb the seven?
57383Davis, etc.?
57383Do not its principles and theories become daily more fixed in our practice?
57383Do we not know it to be so?
57383Do we not know that they have been anxious for a change of Government for years?
57383Do we not know this?"
57383Do you mean that I am to concede the benefits of the political struggle through which we have passed, considered politically, only?
57383Do you mean that I am to give up my convictions of right?
57383Do you mean that we are to deny the great principle upon which our political action has been based?
57383Do you suppose we shall do nothing, even upon the sea?
57383Do you think differently?
57383Do you visit the North in the Summer?
57383Does it appear otherwise to you?
57383Does not the Fugitive Slave Law affect the Black soldier in the Army who was a Slave?
57383Does the Free Republic of the United States exist, in fact, to- day?
57383Does timidity ask WHEN?
57383From your Custom- houses?
57383General Blair simply asked,"Do you like it?"
57383General Grant remarked,"What is to prevent their laying the rails again?"
57383General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
57383Governor of a State?
57383Halleck was present and spoke up, saying:"How would Sheridan do?"
57383Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
57383Has Congress any power over the subject of Slavery in Kentucky or Virginia or any other State of this Union?
57383Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
57383Has he not stolen a march and sent re- enforcements toward Manassas Junction?
57383Has it more waste surface by mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts, or other causes?
57383Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming, or reported to be coming?
57383Have we not at the South, as well as the North, grown great, prosperous, and happy under its operations?
57383He asked me,"Where?"
57383He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
57383He inquired,"Why not both?"
57383He remaining mounted, spoke first to me, saying simply,"How are you, Sheridan?"
57383He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
57383He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
57383He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
57383He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
57383How can this be done?
57383How can we feed and care for such a multitude?
57383How can we, by conceding what you now ask, relieve you and the Country from the increasing pressure to which you refer?
57383How did that side of the House vote on the question of arming Slaves and paying them as soldiers?
57383How does it happen that we have not had unanimity enough to agree on any measure of that kind?
57383How is he going to do it?
57383How long have we been at War?
57383How many letters of marque and reprisal would it take to put the whole of your ships up at your wharves to rot?
57383How will he do it?
57383How?
57383I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
57383I answered:"How can you go to New York?
57383I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
57383I assured him with thanks that I was"first- rate,"when, pointing toward the village, he asked,"Is General Lee up there?"
57383I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
57383I presume that some one said to the Governor about this time,"Why do n''t you get Sheridan?"
57383I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
57383I said to Mr. Pickens,''What next do you propose we shall do?
57383I submit to you, my fellow- citizens, whether such a line of policy is consistent with the peace and harmony of the Country?
57383I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
57383If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
57383If Rebellion and bloodshed and murder have followed, to whose skirts does the responsibility attach?
57383If one man says it does not mean a Negro, why not say it does not mean some other man?
57383If such persons have what will be an advantage to them, the question is, whether it can not be made of advantage to you?
57383If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?
57383If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
57383In answer to his compliments about the comfortable location I had made, I said:''Very comfortable, General, when shall we move on?''
57383In that event, could you stand the reaction feeling which the suffering commerce of Charleston would probably manifest?
57383In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
57383In what do our new Territories now differ in this respect from the old Colonies when Slavery was first planted within them?
57383In what way can that Compromise be used to keep Lee''s Army out of Pennsylvania?
57383Is he going to spend his life in maintaining a principle that no body on earth opposes?
57383Is it doubted that it would restore the National authority and National prosperity, and perpetuate both indefinitely?
57383Is it inferior to Europe in any natural advantage?
57383Is it less fertile?
57383Is it not a mere usurpation without any known mode of justification, under any existing Code of Laws, human or Divine?"]
57383Is it not a time when the measure is most likely to produce danger and mischief to the Country at large?
57383Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
57383Is it worth our while to continue this union of States, where the North demands to be our masters and we are required to be their tributaries?
57383Is that what you mean?
57383Is there a single Court or Magistrate, or individual that would be influenced by it there?
57383Is there no danger to the Tranquillity of the Country in its existence?
57383Is there, has there ever been, any question that, by the Law of War, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?
57383It forces us to ask:''Is there in all republics, this inherent and fatal weakness?''
57383It has the sanction of God''s own Apostle; for when Paul sent back Onesimus to Philemon, whom did he send?
57383It is only a week ago last Monday, that a Bill was introduced here to punish guerrillas*** and how did my colleague vote?
57383Look to the illustrations which the times now afford, how, in the illustration of that sentiment, do we differ from the Black man?
57383MAJOR- GENERAL THOMAS, Nashville, Tenn. Is there not danger of Forrest moving down the Cumberland to where he can cross it?
57383Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
57383Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
57383Mason said to me,"What is that?"
57383May it not interfere with the common Defense and general Welfare?
57383May they not pronounce all Slaves Free?
57383May they not think that these call for the abolition of Slavery?
57383Member of Congress?"
57383Mr. Lincoln*** more than once exclaimed:''Must more blood be shed?
57383Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
57383My friends, is it possible to preserve Peace between the North and the South if such a doctrine shall prevail in either Section of the Union?
57383Not that he feared the North � but the South; how would the wayward, wilful, passionate South, receive his proffered olivef- branch?
57383Now, what do we find?
57383Now, who was it that did the work?
57383Object whatsoever is possible, still the question recurs,''Can we do better?
57383Of all the times when an attempt was ever made to carry this measure, is not this the most inauspicious?
57383Of parties claiming foreign protection?
57383Offering the flask to his uncle, he said:"You''ve had a hard day of it; wo n''t you refresh yourself?"
57383Often"Johnny"would call:"Well, Yank, when are you coming into town?"
57383One party to a contract may violate it � break it, so to speak; but does it not require all, to lawfully rescind it?
57383Or would he conduct this War so feebly, that the whole World would smile at us in derision?"
57383Others say:"What are we to do?
57383Our position for renewing the action the next morning was excellent; whence, then, our failure?
57383Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
57383President?''
57383Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
57383Shall we send a flag of Truce?
57383Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
57383Should his request be granted, who would you like as his successor?
57383Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
57383Simply that a Constitutional Amendment shall be adopted, affirming � what?
57383Sir, are they not words of brilliant, polished Treason, even in the very Capitol of the Nation?
57383Sir, how can we make Peace?
57383Sir, how can we retreat?
57383Sir, is not this a remarkable spectacle?
57383So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
57383So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
57383Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"
57383State in what manner you would rather live-- whether scattered among the whites, or in colonies by yourselves?
57383State what you understand by slavery, and the freedom that was to be given by the President''s proclamation?
57383State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
57383Suppose he does re- enact the same law which the Court has pronounced unconstitutional, will that make it Constitutional?
57383The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?
57383The immediate Secessionists, or those who are opposed to separate State action at this time?
57383The next was,"What are WE to do?"
57383The only question now was, how to get rid of it?
57383The question, then, naturally arises, what are those rights and privileges, and what is the nature and extent of them?
57383Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
57383These speeches of his, sown broadcast over the Land, what clear distinct meaning have they?
57383This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
57383This feature was more than acceptable to the parents at times, for how else could they so thoroughly learn all the neighborhood gossip?
57383To mob law, to partisan caucuses, to town meetings, to revolution?
57383To whom shall you appeal?
57383Tracy desiring"to know whether, in these Halls, the gentleman from Maryland invoked Almighty God that the American Arms should not prevail?"
57383Upon what terms?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383Warming up, he proceeded to say:"Can the Union be restored by War?
57383Was it Mr. Clark?
57383Was it that they believed a Monarchical form of government was incompatible with civil liberty?
57383Was it that they were opposed to a Monarchical form of government?
57383Was it the firing on our flag at Sumter?
57383Was that the first adversary passage?
57383We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
57383Well, so much being disposed of, what is left?
57383Well, suppose he is; what is he going to do about it?
57383Were it his own, would he not have said in"making"it, instead of in"stating"it?
57383What American is not proud of the result?
57383What Commissioners?
57383What better Compromise could have been made?
57383What can I do for you?"
57383What can it be?
57383What could I do?
57383What do those terms mean when used now?
57383What do those terms mean?
57383What good does it do to pass a second Act?
57383What has become of it?
57383What has become of that Squatter Sovereignty?
57383What has been their course in regard to raising money to pay the Army?
57383What has now become of all his tirade about''resistance to the Supreme Court?''"
57383What is Popular Sovereignty?
57383What is War?
57383What is it?
57383What more can any man demand?
57383What more?
57383What of future hopes?
57383What of past glories?
57383What should be done with them?
57383What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
57383What then?
57383What then?
57383What was Squatter Sovereignty?
57383What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
57383What were they but a clear indication that the framers of the Constitution intended and expected the ultimate extinction of that institution?
57383What will become of Constitutional Government?
57383What will become of public Liberty?
57383What would be its fate there?
57383What would he have?
57383What would our condition be in the event of the greatest calamity that could befall this Nation?"
57383What''vested right''has any man or State in Property in Man?
57383When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
57383When he did speak it was to ask:"Grant, how many wolves do you think there are in that pack?"
57383When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
57383When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
57383When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
57383When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
57383When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
57383When the navigation laws cease to operate, what will become of your shipping interest?
57383When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
57383When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
57383When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
57383When this Tariff ceases to operate in your favor, and you have to pay for coming into our markets, what will you export?
57383When your machinery ceases to move, and your operatives are turned out, will you tax your broken capitalist or your starving operative?
57383Where are you?"
57383Where is Rome, once the mistress of the World?
57383Where is it?
57383Where is the remedy when you refuse obedience to the constituted authorities?"
57383Where is to be your boundary line?
57383Where the end of the principles we shall have to give up?
57383Which party will prevail?
57383Who defeated it?
57383Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
57383Who have prompted him?
57383Who heard of any such thing, because of the Ordinance of''87?
57383Who is responsible for it?
57383Who is so bold as to do it?
57383Who shall treat?
57383Who would go?
57383Who, then, has brought these evils on the Country?
57383Who, then, shall come in at this day and claim that he invented it?
57383Whose fault was it?
57383Why better after the retraction than before the issue?
57383Why declare that within twenty years the African Slave Trade, by which Slaves are supplied, might be cut off by Congress?
57383Why deprive him of supplies by a blockade, and voluntarily give him men to produce them?
57383Why disguise this great truth?
57383Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
57383Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
57383Why even a Senator''s individual opinion withheld, till after the Presidential election?
57383Why is this so?
57383Why may not our Country at some time, average as many?
57383Why not attack at once?
57383Why not save this Proposition, and see if we can not bring the Country to it?''
57383Why not?
57383Why should they do anything for us if we will do nothing for them?
57383Why the delay of a re- argument?
57383Why the incoming President''s advance exhortation in favor of the decision?
57383Why the outgoing President''s felicitation on the indorsement?
57383Why this sad difference?
57383Why was the Court decision held up?
57383Why was the amendment, expressly declaring the right of the people, voted down?
57383Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
57383Why were all these acts?
57383Will he be able to convince the Court that the second Act is valid, when the first is invalid and void?
57383Will he shrink from armed Insurrection?
57383Will his State justify it?
57383Will it be said the South required in addition to this, laws of Congress to protect Slavery in the Territories?
57383Will its better public opinion allow it?
57383Will liberation make them any more numerous?
57383Will that do any good?
57383Will that success continue?
57383Will the Senator yield to Rebellion?
57383Will the galling comparison between themselves and their masters leave them unenlightened in this respect?
57383Will you not embrace it?
57383Will you not embrace it?
57383Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
57383Would it be less than stealing?"
57383Would my word free the Slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the Rebel States?
57383Would we not be in the wrong?"
57383Would you not lose that in which your strength consists, the union of your people?
57383You ask, what is the general''s opinion, upon this subject?
57383You here are Freemen, I suppose?
57383You will ask in this view, how do you consult the benefit of the slaves?
57383and will they not be warranted by that power?
57383and"whether it is in order to talk Treason in this Hall?
57383are we to tell the People that Republicanism is a failure?
57383because of the Missouri Restriction because of the numerous Court decisions of that character?
57383but,''Can we all do better?''
57383or is it not manifest that there is no just title?
57383or one hundred million or five hundred million dollars?
57383said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
57383said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
57383what do you export?
57383what more than we have expressed in the resolutions we have offered?
57383where are they to come from?"
57383where will their revenue come from?
57383why have not the People of that Heaven- favored clime, the spirit that animated their fathers?
57383will you work?
57383� said Davies �"and can they get through that road?"
32923Ah, but, father,said Selim;"do you not think the Nazarenes are accursed of God, and of the prophet Mohammed-- blessed be his name?
32923Ah, when shall I forget her, master, or you?
32923Ah, who does not know Simba and Moto?
32923All, except one, and--"And his name was--?
32923And how many days from here, Abdullah, is the spot from whence Selim disappeared?
32923And my brother, what of him?
32923And shall we see-- never more see Kalulu?
32923And thou art going with him-- thou, a child? 32923 And thou art the new brother of my boy Kalulu, art thou, pale- faced boy?"
32923And thou too, Moto, here? 32923 And thou, Sheikh Mohammed?"
32923And what didst thou, too, Simba?
32923And what do my friends think of the two roads? 32923 And what wilt thou give him as a sign?"
32923And what wilt thou give him as a sign?
32923And what, my father,replied the boy, bending a loving look on him,"couldst thou fear?
32923And where did you meet elephants?
32923And where did you meet the Arabs?
32923And where shall I go when I die?
32923And who gave thee such ideas, son Selim? 32923 Are ye Arabs, children?"
32923Art thou afraid of a dead boy? 32923 Art thou mad?"
32923Art thou sick?
32923Art thou willing further to drink his blood, that his blood may pass unto thee, that the bond of eternal brotherhood may be made strong and sure?
32923Art thou willing, further, to drink his blood, that his blood may pass unto thee, that the bond of eternal brotherhood may be made strong and euro?
32923Brave Simba and faithful Moto, where are ye? 32923 But this is murder, is it not?"
32923But what are you going to do with him?
32923But what art thou going to do with the head, Keklu?
32923But where is Zanzibar?
32923But where is that whip of thine, Tifum?
32923But, Selim, tell me; why do thy people wear clothes? 32923 But, father Amer, what harm can my uncle do me, and why should he wrong me, who have never done him wrong in word, or thought, or deed?"
32923But, father, thou art not offended with me? 32923 But, my brother,"urged Moto, with anger in his tones,"how could the gun have come there if some one had not left it?"
32923Dead, is he? 32923 Did ye not tell me ye were Arabs?"
32923Did you ask them where they were going?
32923Didst thou hear Soltali''s words?
32923Do ye hear, children of the Arabs? 32923 Do ye understand?"
32923Do you hear and understand, asses and sons of asses?
32923Do you not hear the young master ask you? 32923 Do you think Abdullah will come to soon?"
32923Does Moto say he tickled the tail of an elephant? 32923 Dost thou know that thou art my slave now, Kalulu?
32923Dost thou know what chapter of the Kuran fits our case better than any other, Selim?
32923Dost thou not fear the fate Soltali promised thee?
32923Dost thou not know Moto, master?
32923Dost thou not know, mother? 32923 Dost thou really like big Simba?"
32923Dost thou see Simba, how thin he is? 32923 Dost thou suffer much, lea?"
32923False mganga, seest thou you tree and that fire?
32923Fool, do you know what you say?
32923How can you talk so, Master Isa?
32923How didst thou find the crocodile, Kalulu?
32923How is Katalambula''s village to be taken? 32923 How is it, then, in the name of Allah,"said the aged Sheikh,"that ye come in this guise, naked, into the presence of true believers?"
32923How many cloths did Kisesa give you?
32923How many men canst thou take with thee, Sheikh Thani?
32923How serious?
32923I? 32923 In what direction is his country?
32923Is Mommed alive now?
32923Is he the little fellow who used to play tricks upon Isa, son of Thani, Selim?
32923Is it Selim, the son of Amer, whose eyes are like the singwe of Urundi, and whose limbs are like ivory? 32923 Is it strong?
32923Is that a beast, or is it my timid fancy which creates such a shape? 32923 Is that the Mienzi Mungu who left the gun?"
32923Isa, son of Mohammed, is a boy and can not understand-- and can not understand what-- will you tell me, brave Simba?
32923Let us go on, then, and find out; let us follow this road until we come to some village where we can ask?
32923Mother, canst thou tell me what I have come to say to thee?
32923Moto,answered that great and tender- hearted giant,"Tell me, what could have done this?
32923Moto,shouted Simba, raising himself up,"art thou revenging thyself on me for making thee unhappy with the mention of him?
32923Not even you? 32923 Now, Master Selim, speak, what is to be done?"
32923Oh, I shall have my eyes on him, depend on it; but when shall we go, Kalulu?
32923Oh, Simba, how canst thou ask? 32923 Perhaps you can tell us where they came from?"
32923Say you so, my brothers?
32923Say, auctioneer, why is he handcuffed? 32923 See, Kalulu, dost thou not know Selim?"
32923Selim, son of Amer, permit Simba, the Mrundi, to ask thee if thou hast already forgotten thy dead father, thy kinsmen, thine own miseries? 32923 Selim?
32923Shall I fire now?
32923Somewhere about twelve, I should say? 32923 Speak, Ferodia, O chief, when wilt thou that we go and punish Soltali, and those who have chosen another in thy place?"
32923Speak, Selim; what can Kalulu do for thee? 32923 That is a very good way of putting it,"said Amer,"but what dost thou say, Khamis, about the comparative safety of the two roads?
32923That is well- spoken, Moto,replied Mohammed; and turning to Sheikh Khamis, he asked:"Hast thou decided what to do, son of Abdullah?"
32923Then do the Warori carry guns nowadays? 32923 Then if ye are Arabs, what does this violence mean?"
32923Then it is settled; eh, Simba and Moto?
32923There, Simba,said Isa, triumphantly,"what do you think now of slaves and true believers?
32923These are the King''s words, which he commanded me to tell you:` Why have you come to my country? 32923 Those cruel people make clean work of it when they fight, but I--""Were they all made prisoners?"
32923Thou dost remember her, dost thou not, Niani?
32923Tifum, what dost thou advise? 32923 Tifum,"said Ferodia, aloud,"what ails this tallest lad?
32923War, Moto? 32923 Was not that the Gombe River we passed?"
32923Well, I will give him to Kalulu; but I thought there were three of them; or were there four?
32923Well, well, we will talk of this another time,said Moto quietly,"eh, Simba, my brother?
32923Well, what became of the elephant you shot?
32923Well, what makes him so white? 32923 What Arab tribe can boast a lad of your years with so much beauty and heart?
32923What ails thee, boy? 32923 What beast can it be?
32923What can be the matter with the boy? 32923 What country is this?"
32923What do you know of it, Moto?
32923What does he say?
32923What dost thou say, Simba? 32923 What dost thou think, Simba?"
32923What harm can happen to him about here, except from a lion or a leopard? 32923 What is it?"
32923What is that?
32923What is the Sky- spirit like?
32923What is the matter, Selim?
32923What made you run away? 32923 What means this, Ferodia?"
32923What need he cover his nakedness, boy? 32923 What of him?"
32923What road did he take; dost thou know, Moto?
32923What sayest thou, Abdullah? 32923 What sayest thou, Kalulu?"
32923What should it be, my brothers, but the head of Tifum the Wicked?
32923What would be their reception?
32923What, will he do nothing, then? 32923 What?
32923When did a son of the great tribe of Beni- Hassan show fear? 32923 Whence come you?"
32923Where am I?
32923Where does he live?
32923Where is the Arab who does not love the Nedjid mare, which partakes of his food, as the wife of his bosom? 32923 Where is this Paradise to which the good men go?
32923Where?
32923Which?
32923Who are ye? 32923 Who art thou speaking of, Ferodia?"
32923Who do you think these people are, Kalulu?
32923Who of us knows much about arrows? 32923 Who were these people?"
32923Who?--I? 32923 Why did he run away?"
32923Why do the pale- faces obey a thing that can not be seen?
32923Why need I ask him? 32923 Why with you?"
32923Why, Simba,asked the eldest of the sons of Mussoud,"do you know what the sacred Kuran says?
32923Why, then, Unyanyembe is not far from here?
32923Why, what can the matter be with thee, my friend?
32923Why, what is the matter with you to- night?
32923Why? 32923 Will I do thee a favour?
32923Wilt thou stay with me now? 32923 With what wilt thou seal thy promise?"
32923With what wilt thou seal thy word?
32923Yes, Simba, what is it?
32923Yes, Simba; and wouldst thou believe it? 32923 Yes, my brother, we are safe for the present; but Zanzibar is yet far, is it not?"
32923Yes, yes, that''s very funny; very funny,said Moto, trying to curb his impatience;"but did your man find nothing else near it?"
32923Yes; why?
32923_ Only_ forty? 32923 ` Is Moto your name?''
32923` You are a Mrori,''said the boy,` and will you make Mostana''s son a slave to those robbers?'' 32923 A white Arab boy, of my size?
32923A wild beast would have advanced with as much circumspection and caution-- why not a human enemy?
32923Abdullah, Moto, do ye hear?"
32923Abdullah?
32923Abdullah?
32923After a long march we came before a Tillage near Ututa, governed by--""By whom?"
32923Am I a slave?"
32923Am I deaf?"
32923Am I more a slave than before?"
32923Am I not good now, and shall I not go to Paradise?"
32923Am I not good, Kalulu?
32923Am I not with my father, the brave Amer son of Osman?
32923And did He not find thee needy, and hath He not enriched thee?
32923And did He not find thee wandering in error, and hath He not guided thee into the truth?
32923And how is it that you wear such fine clothes?"
32923And if thou art of the complexion of ivory, what are we, I wonder-- I, Isa, son of Mohammed, and Khamis, son of Khamis?"
32923And the natural questions the warriors would ask themselves and each other in the morning would be,"Which way have they gone?
32923And then in a louder tone he said,"Selim, young master, dost thou know me?"
32923And where have they gone to?
32923And why is the chain about his neck?
32923And you refuse it, too?
32923Are my words nothing?
32923Are not all bystanders in all parts of the world always wondering why such and such things happen?
32923Are they Arabs?
32923Are they Wanyamwezi?
32923Are they Waruga- ruga( bandits)?
32923Are they from Ugala or Ukonongo?
32923Are they natives?
32923Are they not pretty?
32923Are we not, Moto?"
32923Art thou going to get rich too?"
32923Art thou not our King?
32923Art thou not surrounded by kind friends and servants who love thee as their father?"
32923Art thou not the child of my loins, and of my dear Amina?
32923Art thou satisfied?"
32923Art thou sorry thou hast left thy home-- eh, Selim?"
32923As Moto finished this part of his story, the boy chief sprang forward and embraced Moto, saying:"Dost thou not know me?
32923But how can I ever pay thee for all?
32923But it is thou who art unjust, not I. Hast thou not received a fourth of all thou didst bring me?
32923But say, is not this beautiful?"
32923But tell me, my brother, how comes thy back so scarred and wealed?"
32923But tell us, son of Abdullah, what of the Pagans of Rua, and those lands near the Great Lakes?
32923But what is thy bright idea, Selim?"
32923But what meanest thou, Moto?"
32923But where are the mourners?
32923But who are those people?
32923But who has a better right to fill his place than I, Ferodia?
32923But who is this little fellow-- thy son, Simba?"
32923But why dost thou wish to leave thy mother, child, so soon?"
32923Can Abdullah swim?"
32923Can he punish me more?
32923Can it be the hyaena?"
32923Can many more miracles happen to us like this?"
32923Canst thou not give him something to cover his nakedness?"
32923Canst thou not guess?
32923Canst thou speak Kinyamwezi?
32923Canst thou speak Kirori?
32923Canst thou tell me?"
32923Could anything have been more fortunate?
32923Could anything have been more tempting than this?
32923Did He not find thee an orphan, and did He not take care of thee?
32923Did I not hear thee say, Kalulu, that there lay a lake, a large body of water somewhere about here?"
32923Did he say, Abdullah, whether he would go north or south first?"
32923Did you think to better yourself by doing so?
32923Do I not tell you that he commands you to dance, and the other slave to sing?"
32923Do they make good slaves, and do they sell well in our market?
32923Do ye hear?"
32923Do ye see yon slave about to be sold now?"
32923Do ye understand?"
32923Do you call forty cloths a great deal?"
32923Do you call my brother a slave?
32923Do you hear me, white face?"
32923Do you know Selim?"
32923Do you not remember how pretty he looked when he hinted to his father, that perhaps Simba would like his freedom?
32923Do you not think it right for us to take and capture those who waylay us, and make them slaves for their perfidy and savagery?"
32923Do you see that big man with the great battle- axe in his belt, and a long ivory horn slung to his shoulder?
32923Do you see that woman before you?
32923Do you think Mombo will live, Simba?
32923Do you understand this feeling, father Amer, or is it singular in me?"
32923Does Kisesa usually fight in such a hurry?
32923Does he think that cloth, and guns, and powder grow in the jungles of Africa?
32923Dost thou know Leilah?"
32923Dost thou know that my soul feels heavy to- night, as if some great affliction was about to visit me?"
32923Dost thou need a gun?
32923Dost thou not know that in the night we can do nothing to hunt him up, when he may be anywhere but in the place where we are looking for him?
32923Dost thou not know them?"
32923Dost thou not see that he is handcuffed?
32923Dost thou not think he looks a warrior in his marching dress?
32923Dost thou promise?"
32923Dost thou speak their language, Tifum?"
32923Dost thou think he could get lost, Moto?"
32923Dost thou think that Kalulu''s friendship changes like the antelope, which roameth about for the sweet grass, now here, now there?
32923Dost thou want a wife?
32923Dost thou wish me to take that from him which he has won by his spear and his bow?"
32923Eh, Khamis, my brother?
32923Finally, after going through the ceremony of greeting, like an assiduous old diplomat that he was, he asked:"Whence come ye, my brothers?
32923Had he parted for ever from freedom and friendship?
32923Has Simba paid thee full valuation for the purchase- money thou didst pay for him when he was a child?"
32923Has he not slain my father, and has he not dishonoured me by causing me to stand naked before him?
32923Has he tried to run away?"
32923Hast thou any idea, Simba?"
32923Hast thou anything very important to tell me?"
32923Hast thou forgotten the slaves, the cloth, the powder, and guns I gave thee?
32923Hast thou never heard him mention the word Soul-- that unseen, unfelt thing, which is as light as air, yet is the most important part of a man?
32923Hast thou never thought how pretty and sweet sound the songs of birds, Kalulu?
32923Hast thou not asked for Kisesa, the great Arab warrior, that thou mightest flay him alive and make clothes of his skin to cover thy nakedness?
32923Hast thou not been beating the prisoners with sticks until many of them have died under the torture?
32923Hast thou not been mutilating their young sons by cutting off their right hands?
32923Hast thou not, Tifum?"
32923Hast thou seen the kidling by the side of its dam?
32923Have I not my gun and long- sword?
32923Have I not said well?"
32923Have ye seen a caravan lately going by here towards Unyanyembe?"
32923He will roar no more, will he, chief?"
32923Heh, what is the matter with the man to- night?"
32923How are the warriors in the village to be brought to submission to Ferodia, if they have made Kalulu king?"
32923How can we get away to Zanzibar?"
32923How his eyes, always beautiful, seemed filled with softness, and love, and gratitude to me?
32923How is Kalulu to be ousted out of his right?
32923How is this, Simba?"
32923How many frasilah dost thou think there are in the three?"
32923How shall I praise thee?
32923How shall I thank thee, my Kalulu?
32923How was Abdullah treated?
32923How, hast thou two mothers?
32923How, then, shall I fill Katalambula''s place?
32923I a slave?"
32923I see Amer and Mohammed in your eyes, children; how came I to forget that fatal day of Kwikuru?
32923I see we shall have a glorious company; and thou, Mussoud?"
32923I will take it with thanks, since you say you do n''t want it; but wo n''t you keep a little of it for yourself?"
32923If Fate decrees my death and misery, then why should I try to escape its sure laws by remaining behind?
32923If Kalulu permits us to go, would it be well for us to remain here?"
32923If one of these people can trust himself in the forest, why may I not do so?
32923If we all had been together those fellows might have killed two or three of us, and whom could we have spared?--Selim?
32923In this case what do you propose?"
32923In what battle were your fathers slain?"
32923Is Selim, the son of Amer, turned a girl, that his ears court such music?
32923Is he hard or soft to the touch?"
32923Is he not a handsome brother?
32923Is he not an unbeliever, father?"
32923Is he not as white as any Nazarene?
32923Is he not, Moto?"
32923Is his skin like the shell of an egg?
32923Is it a man?
32923Is it agreed that we go to Rua with the son of Abdullah, to get ivory, slaves, and copper, and light- coloured wives?"
32923Is it another sign of the growth of thy mind?"
32923Is it brave to do what thou hast done?
32923Is it north, south, east, or west?
32923Is it not a happy thought, Moto, that master Amer is not quite, quite dead, and that we shall see him again?"
32923Is it nothing, what Kalulu has done for me all these months?
32923Is it right, or is it not, to own slaves?"
32923Is it thou?"
32923Is not one white slave enough for thee, that thou wouldst deprive me of the other?
32923Is not the world for ever in a maze, and deeming many things of like nature to be incomprehensible?
32923Is there more danger to be apprehended from the Warori and the Watuta than we, a trading caravan, would care to meet?"
32923It is in his caravan as fundi I finished my education as a hunter)--travelling through Ukonongo, I--""Have you been to Ukonongo, Moto?"
32923Katalambula-- even I-- was poor, whereas who is to be compared to me now in wealth?
32923Kibena, perhaps?
32923Know you not that there is enmity between the Warori and the children of the Arabs?
32923Knowest thou the spot where thy man found this wonderful gun?"
32923Leilah, the daughter of Khamis bin Abdullah?"
32923Look at the water of Liemba, so beautiful, so clear, so deep; and, does it not shame the sky with its blueness where it is deep?
32923Mombo die?
32923Moto, where dost thou think Amer is now?"
32923Mrori, speak; must I ask twice for that which was never yours to give?
32923My white brother, canst thou swim?"
32923Niani?
32923No, again?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923No?
32923Out spoke Amer bin Osman:"Do you think, Moto, if we offered half he would accept?"
32923Said he:"Well, Simba;--ah, Isa, you do not know what a treasure Simba is; he is so great, so wise, so strong!--what do you think of the southern road?
32923Say, Kalulu, wilt thou come, and share my sweet mother''s love with me?
32923Say, Selim, how wouldst thou like it?"
32923Say, Simba, how much money would the ivory of these three elephants bring at Zanzibar, dost thou think?"
32923Say, what is thy answer?"
32923Say, where is Isa?
32923Say, whither hast thou gone, that thy voice may no longer be heard, nor thy ears may longer hear Kalulu''s Voice?
32923Say, wilt thou come, and let me show thee the wonders of Zanzibar?"
32923See you not the gate is closed?"
32923Seest thou not it is but my duty to search for him?
32923Selim turned round to Kalulu and asked:"How does the young King of Ututa like his brother Selim''s house?"
32923Selim turned to Moto, and asked:"Oh, if thou canst give me the slightest hope that I shall see Kalulu again, I will bless thee?"
32923Shall I go to Paradise?"
32923Shall I never see dear master again?
32923Shall I remain at Zanzibar eating mangoes when Amer, my kinsman, is in danger?
32923Shall these baby- faces beard me before my own people?"
32923Shall we await here in the camp the coming of the infidel savages, or shall we sally out of the camp and attack them in their boma( palisade)?"
32923Shall we deny him our faint praise?
32923Shall we not wish him happiest days?
32923Shall we refuse him wedlock lays?
32923Should Moto take that from Kalulu which was not his to take?
32923Should he go back at once and gladden the hearts of his friends with the good news?
32923Sickness may come; but who can prevent the bad spirits that visit us with baleful disease and thin our warriors, and make us poor in flocks and herds?
32923Simba waited patiently for the first feeling of numbness to wear away, then whispered to him:"Kalulu, dost thou remember Soltali''s words?
32923Since when came you to be the brother of Kalulu, you son of an ass?"
32923Some were for slaying the boys at once; but the majority interposed, and said in an inquiring tone,"Why slay boys, when you can make slaves of them?"
32923Speak, Simba and Moto, where do ye both intend to go?"
32923Tell me, Sheikh Amer, how many of thy people armed canst thou take with thee?"
32923Tell me, son of Mohammed, where are Selim, and Mussoud, and Isa?"
32923That was a good deal, was it not?"
32923The excitement became general, and the question which first came to each lip was,"Where are they?"
32923The following verses are sufficient as an example:-- Canst thou love me as I love thee?
32923The shriller horn belonged to Amer bin Osman, and was blown by Moto; but what did the bass horn from the interior of the village mean?
32923Their hides are as white almost as the yolk of eggs but how came the tallest one, I wonder, to have so many wounds?"
32923Then our fears, my friend, have turned out true, and it is because of the battle which thou wert in with Kisesa against Mostana, eh?"
32923Then what language dost thou talk?
32923There is nothing specially dangerous in smoke, he thought; but what smoke could this be in the forest?
32923This, thought Kalulu, was friendly; and in pure guilelessness he asked him:"Are ye Arabs?"
32923Thou dost not mean the mainland, surely?"
32923Thou hast said thou art not going to die, then why torment me?"
32923Thou robber, cutthroat, and coward, dost thou hear me?"
32923Thou wilt not want to go at once, Selim, wilt thou?
32923Twelve frasilah of ivory at 50 dollars the frasilah( 35 pounds) would make how much?"
32923Was it Ferodia?"
32923Was it not the road on which caravans journeyed to Unyanyembe?
32923Was not Kalulu a slave yesterday?
32923Was not the finding of a gun strange enough in a forest which, for aught I know, never saw one before?
32923We must be back by noon, for if Kalulu is not here by then, and neither of us have found him, then he is--""What, Moto?"
32923We shall be sons of Arabs, and true believers now, eh?"
32923We shall watch him-- eh, Selim?"
32923Well, I was saying, I--""But, Moto,"broke in Selim again,"Ukonongo is the best country for shooting, is it not?"
32923Were not our children hungry when he departed?
32923Were not our maidens in tears when he and his warriors left us?
32923Were they not victors?
32923Were those people Wazavila or wild Wanyamwezi?
32923Wert thou a man, thou shouldst never have seen her face?
32923What Selim?
32923What actor could have imitated Ferodia?
32923What amount of cloth dost thou think will suffice this man''s greed?
32923What became of Kalulu, thy friend?
32923What can be more enjoyable?
32923What can he want there now?"
32923What can my mother object to?"
32923What can the Pagan dogs do against all the great Arabs, and my father''s kinsmen, when Khamis bin Abdullah, and Amer bin Osman lead?
32923What canst thou find there to learn?
32923What civilised king ever possessed that gait?
32923What civilised monarch ever acted the triumph he felt so well as Ferodia?
32923What could it be?
32923What crime has ever my brain meditated, that I must be reft of my life at so early an age?
32923What did you take us for?"
32923What do ye say, Selim-- Abdullah?"
32923What do you mean?
32923What do you say now, Moto?"
32923What do you suggest, Moto?"
32923What does Kisesa mean?''
32923What does Sultan bin Ali say?"
32923What dost thou think, Moto?
32923What evil spirit is this, that makes me suffer so?
32923What folly is this, Selim, my son?
32923What guile has ever my childhood''s heart conceived for which my youth must pay the penalty?
32923What has Kalulu done unto thee or thy friends, that thou wouldst leave him?"
32923What has become of the village of Katalambula?
32923What has prompted thee to such a question?
32923What hast thou to say to Simba, Selim?"
32923What have I done, that all should leave me?
32923What is it thou wouldst ask?"
32923What is it to thee what the thoughts of a forward Nazarene lad are?
32923What is this new sight or feeling, my father?
32923What joy is left for me-- my son and lord both going?
32923What king has a warrior like Ferodia?
32923What makes thee think that?"
32923What may that be?
32923What news?"
32923What rich man''s house is there in America which has not some trophy of its master''s hunting prowess?
32923What said I?
32923What sayest thou, Moto, my friend?
32923What should he do?
32923What should we have done without thy friendship?
32923What sin has my infancy committed that my youth must be punished so severely?
32923What thing on earth does its work so quietly as the eye?
32923What was it?
32923What wrong have these boy- hands performed, that their owner merits death?
32923Whatever Amer bin Osman does is right; at least, so I have heard men say, and shall I, his son, judge him?"
32923When he had seated himself, he asked Selim:"What book is that thou wert talking of to me yesterday?"
32923When the Arab boy sank in the deep waters brown, Gripped by the greedy crocodile, and sank deep down, Who div''d to rescue him?
32923When was the world not shocked at an exhibition of nature?
32923Where art thou, Selim, son of Amer, pride of the Beni- Hassan?
32923Where canst thou meet with a land so fair, my Selim?
32923Where have those people gone to?"
32923Where is Soltali?
32923Where is little Mussoud?
32923Where is that?
32923Where is the Homer who shall arise and sing of thy prowess?
32923Which way wilt thou take, south or north?"
32923Who and what are ye?"
32923Who are stronger, richer than the Nazarenes of England?"
32923Who art thou?
32923Who but young Kalulu?
32923Who can forget him?
32923Who conquered the Wabona, the Wumarungu, the Wakonongo, the Wanyamwezi, the Wasowa, the Wakawendi, and the Warimba, but I, Forodia?
32923Who goes beyond twenty?"
32923Who is Kalulu?
32923Who is he that has run away?"
32923Who is like unto Ferodia in the battle?
32923Who is like unto Ferodia?
32923Who is like unto Forodia in wisdom?
32923Who is stronger than thou in the battle?
32923Who is this boy?"
32923Who knows how many of these stalwart and stout- hearted people will return to those from whom they are now almost tearfully withdrawing?
32923Who knows what has happened to my brother Kalulu?
32923Who sav''d Kalulu?
32923Who sent thee there but I?
32923Who shall tell the wide, wide world all the deeds done by thy mighty hands?
32923Who told thee thou wert too big to remain with thy mother?"
32923Who won his battles for him, but I, Ferodia?
32923Who would believe it?"
32923Who would have thought that such large independence could hide within the little body of the American balyuz''s son?
32923Whose were the warriors with whom the battle was won at Kwikuru?
32923Why do you not go about without clothes, as we do?"
32923Why does he not come down and show himself?
32923Why had he come so far at all?
32923Why had he not listened to his brother Selim and his friends, who begged him not to go out?
32923Why not now?
32923Why should I suffer, when all other men are happy?
32923Why shouldst thou fear for me?
32923Why was it that, before coming to these mountains, I never thought upon this subject?
32923Why wilt thou, oh Selim, shake thy head so stubbornly?
32923Why wilt thou, who art but a boy, tell me these things concerning Ferodia?
32923Why?
32923Will that content thee, Kalulu?"
32923Will the brave and noble Amer son of Osman, who is now bending over his beautiful wife, in earnest conversation, ever come back?
32923Will you not let me depart to my uncle, to remember the friendly Mrori who scorned to take advantage of a boy?''
32923Will you submit?''
32923Wilt thou be one of us?"
32923Wilt thou come?
32923Wilt thou come?"
32923Wilt thou do Selim a favour, Kalulu?"
32923Wilt thou leave thy mother, the orange- groves, the palms, the cool fountains, for scorching days and arid plains?
32923Wilt thou leave thy mother, these delights, these joys, for the cruel heat, and thirst, and jungle- thorn of negro- land?
32923Wilt thou not come and live with me?
32923Wilt thou not let me go after one moon, my brother?
32923Wilt thou not let thy mother''s voice plead, and prevail with thee, Selim?
32923Wilt thou that he shall choose for himself what he shall please to reserve, or wilt thou choose what he shall have and what thou wilt keep?"
32923Wilt thou, Selim?"
32923With whom can I be safer than with thee?
32923Would the children of the Arabs say any of these sang?
32923Would there ever be an end to the indescribable misery he suffered now?
32923Would there ever be hope for him more?
32923Yet what have I to give thee?
32923Yet who can insure his return?
32923You are Warori?"
32923You have been unsuccessful?"
32923` Hast thou not been making war upon our merchants, killing them in the forest for the sake of their ivory?
32923and have I ever failed in my love for thee?"
32923and shall I, the son of a chief of that tribe-- the son of Amer bin Osman-- look upon the faces of the Pagans with fear in my heart?"
32923and thou, Moto?
32923and what is your purpose?"
32923and wilt thou repeat what thou hast said about the Pagan wife, of Sayd''s son?"
32923anything else for me to do?
32923art thou much hurt?"
32923but, Abdullah, did he tell you which way he was going after he would leave you?"
32923cried Kalulu,"why dost thou not say a kind word to my white brother?
32923cried Selim,"good Simba, do you hear the words of my father?
32923did he try to murder his master?
32923did you not hear your young master say you were brave and strong, and why should you fear we should have some fun?"
32923do n''t I?"
32923do you hear that?
32923do you think we shall see more fun?"
32923dost thou know?"
32923dost thou not hear the deep lake sing?
32923dost thou think that, because I am King of the Watuta, I can forget our brotherhood?
32923ejaculated Selim, profoundly astonished;"what is this?"
32923etc.?
32923how came you here?"
32923in tears, my son?
32923is that what thou meanest by shaking thy head?
32923is this forest likely to last much longer?"
32923it is not as good as Paradise, then?"
32923little Selim my brother?"
32923look at him; do ye not see that dark form slowly moving past that big tree now?
32923must we give him up for ever?"
32923my friend, can I decide upon so important a subject as giving away thy property to this greedy infidel?
32923or any other of the lesser or intermediate points?"
32923or the young fawn frisking by the side of its mother?
32923replied Kalulu, embracing him in return,"has Kalulu, the son of Mostana, pleased thee?
32923said Khamis, to that florid- faced chief, who was proud of his intensely black and handsome beard,"How many canst thou muster?"
32923shall I suffer these tortures?
32923thou hast a good memory, Moto; but who, thinkest thou, is the happiest-- master Amer, up above there, or young master Selim, a prisoner?"
32923thou who art an Arab, and the son of an Arab?"
32923what has a slave to give?"
32923what is it?"
32923what sheitan( bad man, fiend) has done this?
32923where are ye now, chiefs of Zanzibar?"
32923where is it possible thou couldst have gained such ideas, child?
32923where?"
32923who can be strong after feeding on grain- food for sixteen days?
32923who shall sing thy praises?
32923why didst thou thus die?
11273And now, perhaps, you will ask, is not the city aroused by this flagrant cruelty and breach of the peace? 11273 But suppose that they run away-- what is to become of them in the forest?
11273Is water running in our veins? 11273 Is water running in our veins?
11273Shall I not visit for these things? 11273 Shall I not visit for these things?
11273The pride of thy heart hath deceived thee, thou whose habitation is high; that saith in thy heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? 11273 The pride of thy heart hath deceived thee, thou whose habitation is high; that saith in thy heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
11273The question, is again asked, what could have brought about, and can perpetuate, this shocking state of things?
11273Well, what did they do with the master? 11273 What dat you say?"
11273When he returned home and retired, his wife exclaimed,''Why, Mr. Lewis, where have you been, and what were you doing?'' 11273 Whither will such contempt for the life of man lead us?
11273Would such tameness and submission have freighted the May- Flower for Plymouth Rock? 11273 Would such tameness and submission have freighted the May- Flower for Plymouth Rock?
11273You will ask, Is not this murder? 11273 ''Ah, sick, is she? 11273 ''Are they healthy?'' 11273 ''Are they quick?'' 11273 ''Did the driver say any thing, Judge, when he struck the man?'' 11273 ''Did you see any_ exasperated masters_, Judge,''said I,''in your journey?'' 11273 ''Do you know where Squire Malcolm''s cotton field is?'' 11273 ''Do you know where the cotton mill is?'' 11273 ''How old are they? 11273 ''How,''said Johab Graham, can I preach to- morrow?'' 11273 ''Well, Ocra, what now?'' 11273 ''What did the other passengers do?'' 11273 ''What did you_ do_ to the driver, Judge,''said I,''for striking that man?'' 11273 ''What did you_ say_ to him, sir?'' 11273 ''What do you mean,''said Mr. Choules,''by providence opening a merciful safety valve?'' 11273 ''What do you stand here, saying, Yes, yes, yes, for, when you do n''t know?'' 11273 ''What will you give for these fellows?'' 11273 ''Where Squire Malcolm''s old field is?'' 11273 ''Where are you going?'' 11273 ---- do you mean to sit at the Lord''s table with that murderer?'' 11273 Ah, sir does not this narration give fearful force to the query--_What has the church to do with slavery_?'' 11273 Ambition has its cover- sluts in the pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war; but where are the trophies of avarice? 11273 Ambition has its cover- sluts in the pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war; but where are the trophies of avarice? 11273 And after seeing all this, and hearing them tell of their sufferings, need I ask, is there any evil connected with their condition? 11273 And have they not, sir? 11273 And have they not, sir? 11273 And pray, sir, under what circumstances is this agitation begun? 11273 And pray, sir, what power should they invoke? 11273 And upon what facts do I rest my denial? 11273 And what do you suppose was the offence for which all this was done? 11273 And what is the proposed compensation to the Northern States, for a sacrifice of every principle of right, of every impulse of humanity? 11273 And what is the proposed compensation to the Northern States, for a sacrifice of every principle of right, of every impulse of humanity? 11273 And when authority is given to owners of slaves to vindicate their property, can it be supposed they can be deprived of it? 11273 And when authority is given to owners of slaves to vindicate their property, can it be supposed they can be deprived of it? 11273 And who shall dare say that an abolitionist has no right to carry his principles to the_ ballot box? 11273 And who was this inhuman being calling God''s property his own, and ruing it as he would not have dared to use a beast? 11273 And, when authority is given to owners of slaves to_ vindicate their property_, can it be supposed they can be deprived of it? 11273 And, when authority is given to owners of slaves_ to vindicate their property_, can it be supposed they can be deprived of it? 11273 Are abolitionists, then, to blame if they pursue the same course? 11273 Are not our young men more heady, violent and imperious in consequence of their early habits of command? 11273 Are not_ three_ of these independent freemen of more real advantage to a State, than_ five_ of those poor slaves? 11273 Are not_ three_ of these independent freemen of more real advantage to a State, than_ five_ of those poor slaves? 11273 Are slaveholders dunces, or do they take all the rest of the world to be, that they think to bandage our eyes with such thin gauzes? 11273 Are slaveholders worse than other men? 11273 Are the combined product of human experience, and the concurrent records of human character, to be set down as''old wives''fables?'' 11273 Are they admitted as citizens-- then why are they not admitted on an equality with white citizens?

11273 But how is it they are more concerned in this business than others? 11273 But how is it they are more concerned in this business than others? 11273 But if it be partial or oppressive, are there not many instances in which we have laid taxes of this nature?

11273 But is it practicable by any human means, to liberate them, without producing the most dreadful and ruinous consequences? 11273 But is the great epoch passed? 11273 But it may be asked, can not the slaves have redress by appealing to their masters? 11273 But suppose, sir, that abolitionism is dead, is liberty dead also and slavery triumphant? 11273 But what effect do these men suppose will arise from their exertions? 11273 But what effect do these men suppose will arise from their exertions? 11273 But what was the penalty? 11273 But what would the slaves gain, if they should appeal to the master? 11273 But where were the poor captives, who were going to be returned to Africa by the city authorities, as soon as they could make it convenient? 11273 But why should it be done? 11273 But why should it be done? 11273 But, said the youth, were you not afraid, in traveling through the wild country and sleeping in lone houses, these slaves would rise and kill you? 11273 But, says Mr. Nicholas, is it from the general government we are to fear emancipation? 11273 But, says Mr. Nicholas, is it from the general government we are to fear emancipation? 11273 But, sir, is the whole morality of the United States confined to the Quakers?

11272What is the matter, Aunty?
11272What will you do when you are entirely free?

11272A fair specimen this of the manner in which modern usages are made to interpret the sacred Scriptures?
11272A majority?
11272After achieving so much by a process so simple, why should not the South persist in it when striving for further conquests?
11272Ah, why?
11272Am I to be arraigned in this way?
11272And are not the thousands in the District, for whose liberation Congress is besought, unjustly deprived of their liberty?
11272And are there none to lament the downfall of time- honored, hoary- headed slavery?
11272And are we to interpret the_ precepts_ of the Gospel by the expectations of Paul?
11272And did the Head of the new dispensation, then, fall so far behind the prophets of the old in a hearty and effective regard for suffering humanity?
11272And do you not believe that they suffer under the disruption of the dearest earthly ties, as human beings suffer?
11272And does_ he_ think to escape responsibility?
11272And for what am I to return?
11272And had such masters been members of the Corinthian church, what inferences must they have drawn from this exhortation to their servants?
11272And how could it be maintained?
11272And how has it been raised?_"ANSWER.--The annual income of the societies at large, it would be impossible to ascertain.
11272And how many members belong to them_ IN THE AGGREGATE?"
11272And how many members belong to them_ in the aggregate_?
11272And how many, and what is the aggregate of their members_?"
11272And how?
11272And is he not to be so treated?
11272And is not this the way in which the advocates and apologists of slavery dispose of the bearing which primitive Christianity has upon it?
11272And must we prove, that Jesus Christ is not in favor of palpable, monstrous falsehood?
11272And now what does the apostles ask?
11272And on what ground, according to the Princeton professor, did these masters and these servants stand in their relation to each other?
11272And ought these parties not to be thankful?
11272And shall a life of tame surrenders be terminated by suicidal sacrifice?
11272And so they have nothing to say upon the subject?
11272And suppose, that our principles and measures have occasioned this evil-- are they therefore wrong?--and are we, therefore, involved in sin?
11272And what are your reasons for the construction of the passage?
11272And what do Virginia and Maryland ask?
11272And what must reason do with a book, which reduced the authority of its own principles-- broke the force of self- evident truths?
11272And what shall we say of the Golden Rule, which, according to the Savior, comprehends all the precepts of the Bible?
11272And what was the history of the_ apostles_, but an illustration of the doctrine, that"it is enough for the disciple, that he be as his Master?"
11272And what, moreover, is the bearing of the Christian requisitions which Prof. Hodge quotes, upon_ the definition of slavery_ which he has elaborated?
11272And whither would this lead them?
11272And who are poor, if it be not those for whom the abolitionists cry?
11272And who is more entirely innocent than he, of the guilty transactions between his seller and buyer?
11272And who, did they suppose, would be judges in the matter?--themselves merely?
11272And why should not these travelling merchants have an exchange as well as the stationary ones of Bridgetown?
11272And will your exertions be relaxed or increased?
11272And, if Congress has the power to pass embargo laws, has it not the power to prohibit or destroy commerce altogether?
11272Are attributes of sovereignty mere creatures of contingency?
11272Are imbecility and wickedness, bad hearts and bad heads, confined to the bottom of society?
11272Are not the best minds and hearts in England now thoroughly convinced, that slavery, under no modification, can be a school for freedom?
11272Are principles powerless with us which exact homage of barbarians?
11272Are the apprentices disposed to purchase their freedom?
11272Are the apprentices willing to work in their own time?
11272Are the negroes likely to revenge by violence the wrongs which they have suffered, after they obtain their freedom?
11272Are the planters generally satisfied with the apprenticeship, or would they return back to the old system?
11272Are the scholars principally the children who were emancipated in August, 1834?
11272Are the teachers negroes, colored, or white?
11272Are the_ requisitions_ of Christianity adapted to any EXPECTATIONS which in any quarter and on any ground might have risen to human consciousness?

11272Are they as easily governed?
11272Are they forever to remain in bondage?
11272Are they increasing, and at what rate?
11272Are they increasing, and at what rate_?"
11272Are we alarmed, lest by being admitted into the enjoyment of civil rights, they will be inspired with a deadly enmity against the rights of others?
11272Are we to honor the Bible, which Prof. Stuart quaintly calls"the good old book,"by turning away from"self- evident truths"to receive its instructions?
11272Are we, as American citizens, under the sceptre of a Nero?
11272Are your hopes and expectations increased or lessened by the events of the last year, and, especially, by the action of this Congress?

11272As property?
11272As the law of liberty, how can it be consistent with the law of slavery?
11272As the poor wretch shrieks and faints, Humanity shudders and demands why such atrocities are endured?
11272Ask you if a cringe of this murderous nature went unvisited, and if no inquiry was made respecting its circumstances?
11272At what age do the children leave your school?
11272Bring practice in these various respects into harmony with principle, and what becomes of slavery?
11272But Antigua!--what has happened there?
11272But am I not interested, as an American citizen, to have every part of my country cleared of vice, and of whatever perils its free institutions?
11272But compared with the evil of slavery, what is that of the most pernicious currency scheme ever devised?
11272But how can I be responsible for the incidents of my birth?--how for my complexion?
11272But how do the apologists and defenders of slavery proceed?
11272But how stands the case now?
11272But how?
11272But if the framers of the Constitution aimed to provide for a_ single_ case only, why did they provide for"_ all_ cases whatsoever?"
11272But these-- what was their condition?
11272But were there no provisos to these acts?
11272But what are the testimony and admissions of slaveholders themselves on this point?
11272But what can he do?
11272But what has been the result?
11272But what is the amount of cultivable land in those islands, compared with that in all the southern states?
11272But what is the fact?
11272But what right have these interpreters of the sacred volume to regard any form of slavery which the Savior found, as"worst,"or even bad?
11272But what slavery is it that the abolitionists call on Congress to abolish?
11272But what with Prof. Stuart?
11272But what wrote the apostle?
11272But where are they to be found?
11272But who in sober earnest would call this a pecuniary transaction?
11272But who is imprisoned, if it be not he, who is shut up in"the house of bondage?"
11272But whom, within the limits of our country, are we to regard especially as the representatives of our final Judge?
11272But why should we delay longer upon an argument which is based on gross and monstrous sophistry?
11272But why will he thus deceive himself?
11272But you may reply,"Do you think the South is not in earnest in her threat of dissolving the Union?"
11272But, are not crimes more frequent than before?
11272But, if Congress had this power, why had it not as clear a power to prohibit, at that time, the trade in slaves between any two of the states?
11272But, it may be asked, Why, in reference to the taking of slaves from one state to another, use the word"migration,"which denotes voluntary removal?
11272But, what are the facts?
11272But, why will you not?
11272By what means, and under what power, do you propose to carry your views into effect?
11272By what possibility could slavery exist under the influence of such a lesson, set home by such an example?
11272By what process?
11272CANNOT the United States''Government fulfil the purpose for which it was brought into being?
11272Can Congress float in both?
11272Can any one imagine, then, that the slave is indebted to his master, and_ bound to serve him?_ Whence can the obligation arise?
11272Can any one imagine, then, that the slave is indebted to his master, and_ bound to serve him?_ Whence can the obligation arise?
11272Can he have good intentions, or be well employed?
11272Can no legislation blot out the brand?
11272Can not legislatures repeal their own laws?
11272Can nothing rouse them to cast about for self preservation?
11272Can such inferences be drawn from the account of their condition, which the most gifted and enterprising of their number has put upon record?
11272Can these truths be contradicted or denied there?
11272Can we confide in methods for the benefit of our enslaved brethren, which it is death for us to examine?
11272Can we expect to see Christianity on higher vantage- ground than in this country she stands upon?
11272Consistently with such obligations, can_ slavery_, as a RELATION, be maintained?
11272Could I, in such a state of mind as the gospel requires me to cherish, reduce him to slavery or keep him in bonds?
11272Could any trafficker in human flesh ask for greater latitude?
11272Could higher responsibilities or greater confidence be reposed in men individually?
11272Could it be denied, that they were driven to the present alternative?
11272Could it be kind, merciful, or just to keep the chains of slavery on their helpless, unoffending brother?
11272Could slavery, in such a case, continue to exist?
11272Could such a relation be acquiesced in consistently with the instructions of the apostle?
11272Could that have been counted a failure of the experiment?
11272Could their masters claim compensation of the government?
11272Could there be more impressive testimony to the safety of Emancipation in all, even the worst cases?
11272Could they any longer say they were an independent legislature?
11272Could they have expected less from him than a stern rebuke, if they refused to exert themselves in the cause of freedom?
11272Could we longer honor it, as the book of God?
11272Could we regard the universal tranquillity, the respectful demeanor of the lower classes, as less than an interposition of Providence?
11272Dare those who, for the benefit of slavery, have given so wide and active a circulation do the Pittsburgh pamphlet, make the experiment?
11272Did slavery exist in Judea, and among the Jews, in its worst form, during the Savior''s incarnation?
11272Did the influence of the masters contribute any thing in the West Indies; to prepare the apprentices for enfranchisement?
11272Did those states suppose that Congress would legislate over the national domain, for Maryland and Virginia alone?
11272Do parents manifest interest in the education of their children?
11272Do the apprentices work better or worse during their own time when they are paid?
11272Do their parents manifest a desire to have them educated?
11272Do they learn as readily us the white children?
11272Do we search for something there to obscure their clearness, or break their force, or reduce their authority?
11272Do you add to the fear of poverty, that of losing your honors-- those which are anticipated, as well as those, which already deck your brow?
11272Do you anticipate that these facilities will increase still more after entire freedom?
11272Do you ask, why, if this be the character of the American Colonization Society, many, who are now abolitionists, continued in it so long?
11272Do you find a spirit of revenge among the negroes?
11272Do you not believe slaves are human beings?
11272Do you shrink from our advice-- and say, that obedience to its just requirements would impoverish you?
11272Do you think it would have been dangerous for the slaves in this island to have been entirely emancipated in 1834?
11272Do you think that the doctor and his friends could persuade one to carry a letter to the patriarch from whom he had escaped?
11272Do your or similar societies exist in the Colleges and other Literary institutions of the non- slaveholding States, and to what extent?
11272Do?
11272Does he require us_ in principle_ to regard"the laborer as worthy of his hire;"and permit us_ in practice_ to defraud him of his wages?
11272Does he require us_ in principle_"to honor ALL men;"and permit us_ in practice_ to treat multitudes like cattle?
11272Does he_ in principle_ prohibit"respect of persons;"and permit us_ in practice_ to place the feet of the rich upon the necks of the poor?
11272Does it extend to abolition of slavery only in the District of Columbia, or in the whole slave country_?"
11272Does the New Testament directly or indirectly teach, that slavery existed in the primitive church?
11272Does the power to rob a man of his earnings, rob the earner of his_ right_ to them?
11272Especially, can I, thus affected, take sides with the oppressor?
11272First, what is the evidence with regard to the_ improvidence_ of the negroes?
11272For murder?
11272For what, when thus employed and when most successful, is the utmost he can accomplish?
11272From this?
11272From what part of the epistle could the expositor have evolved a thought so soothing to tyrants-- so revolting to every man who loves his own nature?
11272Had their vocabulary run so low that a single word could not be eked out for the occasion?
11272Has Congress_ no power_ to do that for which it was made the depository of power?
11272Has LAW no power to stay the erasing pen, and tear off the scrawled label that covers up the IMAGE OF GOD?
11272Has emancipation been a decided blessing to this island, or has it been otherwise?
11272Has this proved the case?
11272Have the apprentices much respect for law?
11272Have the facilities for missionary effort greatly increased since the abolition of slavery?
11272Have the free States bound themselves by an oath never to profit by the lessons of experience?
11272Have there been many instances of_ theft_ among the scholars?
11272Have they not been constantly and earnestly engaged in the work of education?
11272Have we not the right to speak and act as wielding the powers which the principle of self- government has put in our possession?
11272Have you affiliation, intercourse or connection with any similar societies out of the United States, and in what countries?
11272Have you any permanent fund, and how much?
11272Have you never heard the boast, that there have been anti- abolition mobs, which consisted of"gentlemen of property and standing?"
11272He accosted them in a friendly manner:"What does this mean, my fellows, that you are not at work this morning?"
11272He was praying, giving utterance to these words, probably in reference to his bondage:--"_How long, oh, Lord, how long_?"
11272Here is a rather familiar conversation among some of the chief men of that island-- where can we expect to find more authoritative testimony?
11272How and by whom are the expenses of superintendent, teachers, and schools defrayed?
11272How can a system, built upon a stout and impudent denial of self- evident truth-- a system of treating men like cattle-- operate?
11272How can we account for the number of these societies, and for the large sums of money annually contributed in them?
11272How can"an article of merchandise"stand on this basis and sustain commercial relations to its owner?
11272How could he do otherwise?
11272How could unrequited labor be exacted, or used, or needed?
11272How does all this contrast with the predictions of the"practical men?"
11272How have those conducted themselves who have purchased it?
11272How is it now?
11272How is the bank expected to advance money to the planters, when their total destruction has been accomplished by the abolition of slavery?
11272How is this known?
11272How long have you been engaged in this business?
11272How long have you been master of Wolmer''s free school?
11272How long have you been teaching in Jamaica?
11272How many of the teachers were slaves prior to the first of August, 1834?
11272How many priming presses and periodical publications have you?
11272How many schools have you under your charge?
11272How many societies, affiliated with that of which you are the Corresponding Secretary, are there in the United States?
11272How then, in the light of such obligations, must slavery be regarded?
11272How?
11272How?
11272I ask myself-- is it indeed finished?
11272I looked at him with surprise, and inquired what country?
11272If Congress does not possess the power, why taunt it with its weakness, by asking its exercise?
11272If a frantic legislature pronounces woman a chattel, has it no power, with returning reason, to take back the blasphemy?
11272If it was the_ design_ of the proviso to restrict congressional action on the subject of_ slavery_, why is the_ soil alone_ specified?
11272If lost to reason, are they dead to_ instinct_ also?
11272If not, why was he so created and endowed?
11272If so, why do they not take the praise, and give us the benefit, of their wisdom, enterprise, and success?
11272If these admonition and warnings were heeded there, would not"the South"break forth into"weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth?"
11272If these laws had_ no power_ to emancipate, why this constitutional guard to prevent it?
11272If, as honorable senators tell us, Maryland and Virginia did verily travail with such abounding_ faith_, why brought they forth no_ works_?
11272In January, a tract entitled"WHY WORK FOR THE SLAVE?"
11272In fine, am I not interested, as an American citizen, to have my country, and my whole country,"right in the sight of God?"
11272In one connection[F], an inquirer demands of the Savior,"What good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?"
11272In other countries, where dey are free,_ do n''t_ dey have law?
11272In what estimation, in that case, should we be constrained to hold the Bible?
11272In what way, and to what purposes, do you apply these funds?
11272Is Congress so impotent in its own"exclusive jurisdiction"that it can not"otherwise by law provide?"
11272Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11272Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11272Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11272Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11272Is Jesus Christ in favor of American slavery?
11272Is a constitutional power to be exercised by those who hold it, only by popular sufferance?
11272Is delegated authority mere conditional permission?
11272Is his frame of mind adapted to the study of the Bible?--to make its meaning plain and welcome?
11272Is it a lifeless corpse, save only when popular"consent"deigns to puff breath into its nostrils?
11272Is it his by sympathy with the oppressor?
11272Is it like American slavery, which, in all its tendencies and effects, is destructive of all oneness among brethren?
11272Is it not thus directly calculated to encourage indolence and insubordination?
11272Is it shut up to the_ necessity_ of keeping seven thousand"enemies"in the heart of the nation''s citadel?
11272Is it so?
11272Is it that in the slave states?
11272Is it true, however, that the North has nothing more to do with slavery in the states, than with slavery in a foreign country?
11272Is it your opinion that the negro children are as ready to receive instruction as white children?
11272Is it, that Congress shall resubject to their control those thousands of deeply wronged men?
11272Is my authority to be destroyed by the interference of stranger?
11272Is my conduct to be questioned by these people?
11272Is not the precept under hand naturally subversive of every system and every form of slavery?
11272Is not this applying the_ hot iron to the nerve_?
11272Is the government of the United States unable to grant_ protection_ where it exacts_ allegiance_?
11272Is the impious edict irrepealable?
11272Is the plucked and hoodwinked North to be wheedled by the sorcery of another Missouri compromise?
11272Is there any difficulty occasioned by the apprentices refusing to work?
11272Is there any sense of insecurity arising from emancipation?
11272Is this the condition in which our ecclesiastics would keep the slave, at least a little longer, to fit him to be restored to himself?
11272Is this the way of slaveholders?
11272Is this the way to fit the unprepared for the duties and privileges of American citizens?
11272Is_ this_ providing for the common defence and general welfare?
11272It had been seconded by his honorable friend on his right.--(Aside,"Good, did n''t you promise to second it?")
11272It may be replied-- if the abolitionists are such firm friends of the Union, why do they persist in what must end in its rupture and dissolution?
11272Manslaughter?
11272Misconduct?
11272Must it lie helpless at the pool of public sentiment, waiting the gracious troubling of its waters?
11272Must not every one in such a community contribute his share to the general welfare?--and mutual service and mutual support be the natural result?
11272Must the handwriting of Deity on human nature be expunged for ever?
11272Must they not have been in harmony with the Golden Rule?
11272Must we prove, that Jesus Christ is not in favor of such things?
11272Not even this?
11272Now, he asked, why should the negro run away from his work, on being made free, more than during the continuance of his apprenticeship?
11272Now, if this fail, will you resort to"the more potent powers of the bayonet?"
11272Now, we ask, how does the Constitution_ abridge_ the powers which Congress possessed under the articles of confederation?
11272Now, what would any Caesar do, who had ever felt a link of slavery''s chain?
11272Of horses, oxen, and other brutes?
11272Of such, what says Professor Stuart''s"good old Book?"
11272Of what character were these precepts?
11272Of what does it consist?
11272On what ground did you enact the intermediate state of indenture apprenticeship, and on what arguments did you justify it?
11272On which side may palliation be pleaded, and which party may most reasonably claim an abatement of the rigors of law?
11272On_ many of the estates_ they have repaid the kindness and forbearance of their masters; on others they have continued to take advantage of( what?
11272Or did they take it for granted that Congress would always know their wishes by intuition, and always take them for law?
11272Or were those states so bashful of a sudden that they dare not speak out and tell what they wanted?
11272Our negroes will be taken away from us-- we shall find no work to do ourselves-- we shall all have to beg, and who shall we beg from?
11272Receive him how?
11272Said he, putting his hand on his breast,"You see old Jacob?
11272Said he,"In slavery time we work_ even_ wid de whip, now we work''till better--_what tink we will do when we free?
11272Speaking of the slaves in Virginia, he says:"Should we not, at the time of the revolution, have broken their fetters?
11272Such being also the valuation which the masters had uniformly placed upon their time during the apprenticeship?
11272Superior, did I say?
11272Suppose Congress should emancipate the slaves in the District, what would it"_ take_?"
11272Suppose there should be a disagreement-- as in all likelihood there soon would, leading to war between the North and the South?
11272Talks the slaveholder of the"prosperity"of the South?
11272That the apostle regarded slavery as a Christian institution?--or could look complacently on any efforts to introduce or maintain it in the church?
11272The Jews even?
11272The Welch, the Swiss, the Irish?
11272The coincidence in the replies of different planters to the question-- What are the advantages of freedom over slavery?
11272The girl replied,"Is it morning?"
11272The only question is, whether the Southern states can abolish slavery consistently with the public safety, order, and peace?
11272The sovereignty of the District of Columbia exists_ somewhere_--where is it lodged?
11272The spirit and power of our fathers, where are they?
11272Their"brother"could_ he_ be, who kept"the yoke"upon their neck, which the apostle would have them shake off if possible?
11272Then it has an authoritative will, and an organ to make it known, and an executive to carry it into effect-- Where are they?
11272Then why not give in with a good heart?
11272Then why not include race horses and game cocks?
11272They consent to the murder of the children; can they respect the rights of the Father?
11272This our Savior did; and if we refuse to enter into sympathy and cooperation with him, how can we be his_ followers_?
11272This was well, but what were the milder means which were to take the place of brute force?

55813What fur you pray?
55813What fur, Ann?
55813What have I done, Miss Jane?
55813What have you there that is pretty, Aunt Polly?
55813What in the South could induce a different train of thought? 55813 What is her name?"
55813What is it to be sold? 55813 What is it you want, Johnny?"
55813What is it, Massa Ed, what is it Kaisy be takin''on so''bout? 55813 What is it?"
55813What is the matter with that nigger?
55813What is the matter, Ann? 55813 What is the matter, Ann?"
55813What is the matter, my boy?
55813What is the matter?
55813What makes Miss Bradly so quiet and seemingly lachrymose? 55813 What promise is that?"
55813What rhubarb, senna, or what purgative drug would scourthe slaveholder''s nature of harshness and brutality?
55813What right has you to think anything''bout it?
55813What time did she kick the bucket?
55813What was Miss Emily Bradly talking wid you''bout?
55813What will father do with Lindy, if she should be caught?
55813What will you give fur this one?
55813What will you take for this yallow gal?
55813What you grunt fur?
55813What''s faith?
55813What''s that? 55813 What''s the matter?"
55813What''s to be done?
55813What''s your name, girl?
55813What, child?
55813What,I thought,"have I now to desire?
55813What?
55813What_ is_ the matter with you?
55813What_ is_ the matter?
55813When did they miss the forks?
55813When do you predict the advent of that millennial day?
55813Where are Miss Jane and Matilda? 55813 Where are the forks?"
55813Where are they?
55813Where did Mr. Somerville go?
55813Where do you belong?
55813Where have you been, Johnny?
55813Where in this city would we find such a mistress, that allows the servants better fare than she takes herself? 55813 Where is father?"
55813Where is the draught clear and pure enough to quench a flame so consuming?
55813Where is the woman that''s been kilt?
55813Where is your mammy?
55813Where is your mother now, Ann?
55813Where,I asked Aunt Polly,"is Lindy?"
55813Where,she asked me,"are the young ladies?
55813Which of you cussed wretches did this?
55813Which one?
55813Who can she be?
55813Who can that have been?
55813Who could,I asked myself,"have the heart to untie this sweet fraternal bond?
55813Who do you think made negroes?
55813Who done it?
55813Who is God? 55813 Who is he?"
55813Who keres if''tis? 55813 Who killed her?"
55813Who made me one?
55813Who of the others are sold?
55813Who said that I wanted to sell her?
55813Who the d----l is that?
55813Who will accompany you?
55813Who would be our accusers? 55813 Who''s dar?
55813Who''s got de bes''right? 55813 Who''s gwine to be sole?"
55813Who''s her?
55813Who, in the name of h-- l, can say that I struck her? 55813 Who, which of them have you sold, father?"
55813Who,I asked myself,"is this mysterious Fred Douglas?"
55813Whom?
55813Why ca n''t you?
55813Why did he kill himself?
55813Why did you not come and inform me? 55813 Why did your Masser sell you?"
55813Why did your master sell you?
55813Why do n''t she get up?
55813Why do n''t you talk, Ann?
55813Why do yer say de rest ob yer? 55813 Why do you think that?"
55813Why is not the African mind equal to the Caucasian?
55813Why was I not born on that side of the river?
55813Why, Henry, is this you?
55813Why, Lindy, how should I know?
55813Why, how d''ye do, Ann? 55813 Why, sartin I did; but my laughin''want gwine to kill you, was it?"
55813Why,I asked myself,"ca n''t I be a hog or dog to come at the call of my owner?
55813Why? 55813 Will I, though?
55813Will Mr. Monkton''s testimony be taken?
55813Will it do me any good?
55813Will my death- hour ever come?
55813Will scenes like these ever cease?
55813Will you not let me make one of the party for the North?
55813Will you speak to her, young Master, and reconcile her to her situation?
55813Yes, but have n''t you heard? 55813 Yes, but he will,"said Mr. Peterkin, as, with a giant''s force, he broke asunder the slight arms,"you imperdent hussy, arn''t you my property?
55813Yes, but what''s it to you, Amy?
55813Yes, you does; do n''t he, Jake?
55813Yes; why not?
55813You ai n''t, arnt yer, you old fool? 55813 You are a slave?"
55813You d-- n yallow hussy, does you think I buys such expensive chany- ware for you to break up in this ar''way? 55813 You devilish old wretch, Polly, what are you gabbling and snubbling here about?
55813You do n''t want to buy without first seeing her?
55813You do n''t? 55813 You old fool, what''s you''bout, gwine on at this here rate?
55813You take it calmly,he said;"have you no friends?"
55813You think she was sold when you were, do n''t you?
55813You would let her go for a fair price, would n''t you?
55813You? 55813 Your brother?"
55813Your cousin?
55813_ With me?_interrogated the lady.
55813and my baby- boy, whar is he, and my oldest sons? 55813 whar she come from?"
55813when her gwyn away?
55813A black man he evidently was; but how had I heard him spoken of?
55813After repeated knocks at the door of this most wretched hovel, an old crone of a negress muttered between her clenched teeth,"Who''s dar?"
55813Again I attempted to tell the facts of the case, and defend myself, but she interrupted me, saying:"Do you suppose I believe a word of that?
55813Ah, Ann-- is it Ann?"
55813Ah, did I not believe him to be one of God''s blessed angels, lent us for a brief season?
55813Ah, when was the morn of glad freedom to break for me?
55813Ah, you do not believe me; but, good as is this news, it is true; is it not, father?"
55813All flowers were dear to me; but these were particularly precious, and wherefore?
55813Am I to become so utterly degraded?
55813An acknowledgment of contrition, and a determination to do better, are all God requires of the offender; and shall poor, erring mortals demand more?
55813And Miss Jane-- what did she do?
55813And did I not dream that this youth, too, had on earth a mission of love to perform?
55813And did not my uplifted glance tell him who would?
55813And is this thing done beneath the influence of civilized laws, and by men calling themselves Christians?
55813And must the mere fact of his tawny complexion exclude him from the pale of that society which he is so eminently fitted to grace?
55813And now what can you do?"
55813And now, poor old Nace, what pursuit must I recommend to you?"
55813And shall I desert her who has suffered so deeply for me?
55813And what does this amount to?
55813And why may not Ham''s descendants claim a reprieve by virtue of the passion and death of Christ?
55813Ann, how dare you give your mistress impudence?"
55813Are there many women who would have differed from me?
55813Are there no spirits in earth, air, or sky, to lend me their gracious influence?
55813Are there, in the high endurance of the heroes of old Sparta, sufferings such as the unchronicled life of many a slave can furnish forth?
55813Are these aspirings sent us from above?
55813Are they wings lent the spirit from an angel?
55813Are we dogs to lick the hand that strikes us?
55813Are we excluded from the grace of that atonement?
55813Are you a coward, a_ slave_ indeed?"
55813Are you lacking in manliness, in courage?
55813Are you sure you never saw one before?"
55813Are you women or fiends?
55813As I turned the key of Miss Jane''s wardrobe, she came into the room, with an unusually excited manner, exclaiming,"Ann, where is your Miss Tildy?"
55813Astonishing, is it not, how the loaves and fishes of this goodly life will change and sway our opinions?
55813At that suggestion I started, and felt my heart grow chill, as though an icy hand had clenched it; yet why felt I so?
55813Atkins?''
55813Aunt Polly dead?"
55813Aunt Polly wiped her eyes as she said to me,"Ann, does n''t we niggers hab to bar a heap?
55813Ay, who did kill her?
55813Being free, might they not have held property like other nations?
55813Bidding her a polite good- morning, I inquired if the ladies had risen?
55813But come, Jane, I is powerful hungry; ca n''t you git me something to eat?"
55813But how can you, Henry, thus supinely sit by and see yourself robbed of your life''s treasure?
55813But is it not intolerable that we should now quote them with such brazen self- gratulation?
55813But, after all, why wait for a_ plan_?
55813Ca n''t you be sold somewhere in the city?
55813Can we hope for a mitigation of our wrongs when such men are our sovereigns?
55813Can you not labor to buy yourself?
55813Comes it to me now that I may gird my soul for the approaching warfare?
55813Could I be mistaken?
55813Could I bear to have her name and her sorrow thus rudely spoken of?
55813Could I not have answered,"Thou art the man"?
55813Could you bear silently the constant"wear and tear"of body, the perpetual imprisonment of the soul?
55813Could you distinguish between immigrants of their class, and those who now settle upon our soil?
55813Could you not have instilled better things into their minds?
55813Dare he look me full in the eye?
55813Did Cain love Abel?
55813Did Herod love those innocents, whom, by a bloody edict, he consigned to death?
55813Did I not know that the grave would be to her as a bed of ease?
55813Did he feel no touch of remorse, or was he so entirely sold to the d-- l, as to be incapable of regret?
55813Did he not say God loved all His creatures alike?"
55813Did she care to know that others felt for her?
55813Did she come to it by violence?"
55813Did she not plan and premeditate the deed?
55813Did these thoughts never occur to you?"
55813Did you not know of it?"
55813Did your fathers do so before you?
55813Do Christians, who send off missionaries, realize that heathendom exists in their very midst; aye, almost at their own hearthstone?
55813Do chirruping lips and bright eyes claim all your thoughts?
55813Do n''t you know I is yer master, and will beat the very life outen yer, if yer do n''t git up right at once?"
55813Do n''t you know thar is company in the house?"
55813Do not her thrift and industry disprove the oft- repeated charge of indolence that is made upon the negro race?
55813Do not such faces help to prove the perfectibility of the race?
55813Do not the high and merciful stars, that nightly burn above you, recall me to your heart?
55813Do not thoughts of her often come to your lonely soul with the sighing of the midnight wind?
55813Do they reason?
55813Do we not often wonder why the sky can smile so blue and lovingly, when such outrages are enacted beneath it?
55813Do you dare to ask me not to punish a thief?"
55813Do you know, Miss Emily, that your incendiary principles lost you caste in this neighborhood, where you once stood as a model?"
55813Do you pray?"
55813Do you think they could indict you?"
55813Does God look down with kindness upon injustice like this?
55813Does he come here often, Ann?"
55813Does it not seem like dividing the burden, when we know that there is another who will weep for us?
55813Does not a blush stain your cheeks when you make vaunting speeches about the character of your government?
55813Does not our Declaration of Independence aver, that all men are born free and equal?
55813Does not the African, in his love of gaud, show, and tinsel, his odd and grotesque decorations of his person, exhibit a love of style?
55813Does not the child- loved moon speak to you of times when, as a little thing, I nestled close to your bosom?
55813Does she suit you?"
55813Does the uncut diamond show any of the polish and brilliancy which the lapidary''s hand can give it?
55813Father, do you not promise before these witnesses?"
55813Father, do you not want me to rest quietly in my grave?"
55813Feeling, emotion, is the same in the African and the white woman?
55813For this were the infant colonies applauded; who then shall inveigh against us for a practice of the same heroism?
55813Had I a fellow- creature''s blood upon my hands?
55813Had I found, accidentally, one of those Northern Abolitionists, about whom I had heard so much?
55813Had he prepared or engaged an advocate?
55813Had not his blessed smile elevated and inspired my sinking spirit, and his sweet tone softened my over- taxed heart?
55813Had she not power to read, in that noble youth''s voice and manner, the high enduring truth and singleness of purpose that dwelt in his nature?
55813Had they been the proper subjects of property, what could prevent the application of the principle I have quoted?"
55813Happiness?
55813Has Masser said anything''bout it?
55813Has anything happened to you?"
55813Has he weighed the advantages and disadvantages of both?
55813Has not every social and moral feeling been outraged?
55813Have I not just shown that all that you made was by right of law mine?
55813Have other children supplanted your eldest- born?
55813Have you a good home?"
55813Have you done so?
55813Have you not, from the broken chinks of your lonely cabins at night, looked forth upon the free heavens, and murmured at your fate?
55813Have you spoken to Lindy?
55813Have you, by the white man''s coarse brutality, learned to forget your absent child?
55813He waited a moment, then said:"Are you happy?"
55813Hearing my exclamation, she sprung up, and eagerly asked,"What is de matter, Ann?
55813How can the slave be a philanthropist?
55813How can you inhumanly beat those who have no protectors but you?
55813How can you persecute, to the death, poor, ignorant creatures, whose only fault is a black skin?
55813How dare we, as Americans, boast of this as the home and temple of liberty?
55813How did I suffer?
55813How did she behave?
55813How does you like that, and this, and this?"
55813How long will they bay at heaven with their cruel blasphemies?
55813How much does Miss Nancy ask for you?"
55813How much longer must we bear this scourge, this crown of thorns, this sweat of blood?
55813How much longer will thy divine patience endure?
55813How much longer wilt thou permit a suffering race to endure this harsh warfare?
55813How old would you think me?"
55813How would the man of ermine blush at his own quibbles?"
55813I ask you, reader, if for a sorrow like this there was any word of comfort?
55813I evaded her by saying,"how can I know what master will do?"
55813I exclaimed, as I bent above her,"can this thing last long?
55813I felt my soul shiver and shudder at this; but what could I do?
55813I have n''t killed you, too-- say, Miss Bradly, is he dead?"
55813I heard him ask--"Where is she?
55813I jist wisht Masser sell yer apart, den whar is yer''tection ob one anoder?"
55813I leaned forward, and, in a muffled tone, but with my whole heart hanging on my lip, asked Josh"how is mother?"
55813I murmured,"he who reconciles me to my bondage, who is my only friend?
55813I said,"if ever we meet again, will it be a meeting that shall know no separation?
55813I saw young master clasp his hands fervently, and heard him passionately exclaim--"How much longer, oh, how much longer shall this be?"
55813I thought of the pure, passionless apostle John, whom Christ so loved?
55813I went up to him, kindly saying,"What is the matter, old uncle?"
55813I wonder if we''ll git it?"
55813If the African has not heroism, pray where will you find it?
55813If we drive them hence, what excuse have we for it?
55813If, then, human law recognizes a negro as irresponsible, how much more lenient and just will be the divine statute?
55813In the cross- hall I met Louise, who exclaimed,"Why, Ann, where are you going?"
55813In the exhausted coffers and empty public treasury, is there nothing taught but the lesson of national extravagance?
55813In the threatened famine, see we nothing but an accidental failure of the crops?
55813In the virulence of disease, the increasing prevalence of fatal epidemics, what do we read?
55813Into whose hands shall I fall?"
55813Is all noble philanthropy voted vapid by sober, serious, reflecting manhood?
55813Is he not well enough to bear the excitement of it?"
55813Is it because my face is colored?
55813Is it best for a high- souled being to sit supinely down and bear the vile trammels of an unnatural and immoral bondage?
55813Is it for you, a Northerner and a woman, to put up your voice in defence of slavery?
55813Is it not the white man''s policy to degrade your race, thereby finding an argument to favor the perpetuation of Slavery?
55813Is it only beardless boys who can feel for suffering slaves?
55813Is it right to conquer the spirit, which God has given us?
55813Is it to redeem a brother from a band of lawless robbers, who hold him in captivity?
55813Is it to right some individual wrong?
55813Is it to take part with the weak and oppressed against the strong and the overbearing?
55813Is not the bulb, which enshrouds the snowy leaves of the fragrant lily, an unsightly thing?
55813Is not the poisoned cup drained to its last dregs?"
55813Is not this a matter, upon the injustice of which thy great voice should pronounce a malison?
55813Is there a single female heart that will not divine"the wherefore"?
55813Is there for us one thing to sweeten bondage?
55813Is there no hope?
55813Is there no tomb where, for a short space, thou shalt lie, and then, bursting the bonds of night and death, spring up free, redeemed and regenerate?
55813Is this the blessed quality that is destined to"cover a multitude of sins"?
55813It is dark; I ca n''t see you, where, where are you?"
55813It would, besides, strike a blow at my legal practice, and then what could I do?
55813It''s most day; say, is anything gwine on?"
55813John Peterkin?
55813Let us arrange for the future; but first tell me how much money does Henry lack to buy himself?"
55813Look upon me as a sister; but now that your excited feelings have become allayed, let me ask you why your master sold you?"
55813Looking into his deep, witching eyes, I murmured low, whilst my hand returned the pressure of his,"Is it you, dear Henry?"
55813Looking up to me with that vacant glance which at once explained all, she said:"Who''s dar?
55813Might it not have been well to let Amy go too?"
55813Miss Bradly hearn in de house''bout de''raculous''pearance ob de sperit, and she kum up to me, and say''Polly, whar is de body of Ann?''
55813Miss Bradly, is that you?
55813Mother, are you changed?
55813Mought he be yer uncle?"
55813Must I conquer them?
55813Must I stifle the eloquent cry of Nature in my breast?
55813Must it not be wretchedness indeed, when the heart refuses to look around upon blooming, vernal Nature, and answer her with a smile of freshness?
55813No answer being made, she garrulously went on:"Was that yer husband what comed to see you this evenin''?"
55813No notice was taken by the citizens of her murder-- why should there be?
55813Noiselessly I was trying to creep away, when young master said in a low voice:"Is this you, Ann?
55813Not much of anything, ha?"
55813Nothing daunted, she went on:"Is yer gwine down the river with the next lot?"
55813Now, do we not make this a practical falsehood?
55813Now, how would the religious slave- holder answer that?
55813Now, what would you think if I did n''t give you a single lick?"
55813Now, why, I ask, have they not as much right to remain here as we have?
55813Obediently he swallowed it, and, as he returned the glass, he asked,"How has this wretched matter terminated?
55813Of what avail, then, would be my''quiddits, quillets; my cases, tenures and my tricks?''
55813Often I ask myself why is this?
55813Oh, God, what fierce and fiendish feelings did the recollection of her agony arouse?
55813Oh, did they not reach the ear of Almighty love?
55813Oh, does it not seem a mockery for the slave to employ that word?
55813Oh, nation of the free, how long shall this be?
55813Oh, shall I, can I, ever forget that scene?
55813Oh, sisters, know ye not that this Algerine captivity that I have painted, is but a poor picture of the daily martyrdom which our slaves endure?
55813Oh, was not this fearful, fearful ignorance?
55813Oh, where is there to be found injustice like that which the American slaves daily and hourly endure, without a word of complaint?
55813Oh, why, why have we-- poor bondsmen and bondswomen-- these fine and delicate sensibilities?
55813On the evening before our departure, I called Louise to me and asked,"Where is Henry''s grave?"
55813Or do you toil alone, broken in soul and bent in body, beneath the drudgery of human labor, without one soft voice to lull you to repose?
55813Or must they be clipped and crushed as belonging to the evil spirit?"
55813Or, mother, have other ties grown around your heart?
55813Peterkin''s?"
55813Raising himself quickly in the bed, he asked,"What hour is it?"
55813Reverse the case, and take upon yourselves their condition; how would you act?
55813Sally can get a situation as cook; and Ann, where is Ann?"
55813Shall I ever forget the despairing look of Charley?
55813Shall Nebraska and Kansas join in a blood- spilling coalition with the South?
55813Shall it dare to desecrate, with its vile presence, the new territories that are now emphatically free?
55813She sprang from the bed, exclaiming:"La, Ann, whar has yer bin?
55813She started nervously,"Oh, who are you?
55813She was a strange, gifted, unusual woman;--who, then, can suppose that her infancy and youth were ordinary?
55813Should I, could I, ever be_ free_?
55813Summerville?"
55813Summerville?"
55813Sure, and arn''t de one who cooks it got de bes''right to it?"
55813Take her a word from me?
55813Tell me what is to become of us?
55813Tell me why were you sold?"
55813Tell me, honest reader, was not she, at heart, a murderess?
55813The old man''s voice grew very feeble, as he asked,"An de chillen, de boys, how is dey?"
55813The strange workings of my countenance attracted Amy''s attention, and, coming up to me, with an innocent air, she asked:"What is the matter, Ann?
55813The taller girl turned toward me, and asked,"Father, is that the new girl you bought at old Nelson''s sale?"
55813Then I would repeat the often- asked question,"Where shall we live?"
55813Then who can ask me, if I would not rather go back into bondage than_ live_, aye_ live_( that is the word), with the proud sense of freedom mine?
55813Think ye not, oh, gentle reader, that this prayer was heard above?
55813To Master William''s interrogatory,"Is Mr. Atkins in?"
55813Tompkins?"
55813Tossing her bonnet off, she kissed Miss Jane very affectionately, nodded to me, and asked,"Where is Tildy?"
55813Very true, I thought, for the most of them; but who is to blame for their ignorance?
55813Wal, says I, haint your faces black as mine?
55813Was he not one of the sacred chosen?
55813Was it mournfulness that streamed, with a purple light, from them, or was it a sublimated contempt?
55813Was it not sad to behold the depths of degradation into which this creature had fallen?
55813Was she dead?
55813Was she not, now, the weakest and most sordid of mortals?
55813We have been and are cruelly oppressed; why may we not come out with our petition of right, and declare ourselves independent?
55813Well, what''s the damage?"
55813Were they not hideous to look upon, and was he not lovely as a seraph?
55813Were they not low and vulgar, and he lofty and celestial- minded?
55813Whar is he?"
55813Whar is she?
55813What business have negroes going to church?
55813What constitutes worth of character?
55813What could she mean by new friends and a new home?

27949And you have a governess, Daisy? 27949 And you have n''t gone and fallen in love, callant, meanwhile, just to complicate affairs?"
27949And you will write to me?
27949And you--?
27949Are Miss Pinshon done gone away, Miss Daisy?
27949Are n''t there Yankees among the cadets?
27949Are n''t you going to answer it?
27949Are the hills better than this?
27949Are they very heavy?
27949Are we slaves, that we should be ruled by a government we do n''t choose? 27949 Are you glad to get away from school?"
27949Are you going to be busy this afternoon?
27949Are you going to propitiate Miss Pinshon with it? 27949 Are you going to take care of the wants of everybody?"
27949Are you here yet?
27949Are you not ashamed of yourself?
27949Are you rested?
27949Are you sorry I take it?
27949Are you tired talking?
27949Are you tired, Daisy?
27949Are you tired, Daisy?
27949Are you tired?
27949Are you? 27949 At night?
27949Aunt Catherine?
27949Aunt Gary,I said that same evening, musing over the things in my boxes,"does lace cost much?"
27949Away from Pete?
27949Beauty is a great thing, is n''t it? 27949 Believe what?"
27949Books, mademoiselle?
27949But Fort Putnam? 27949 But Randolph is not French, are you, Randolph?"
27949But Sundays?
27949But about Washington, lad? 27949 But are they compromised?"
27949But at night, Margaret?
27949But can not they spend their wages for what they like?
27949But do n''t their little babies want them?
27949But do n''t they get what they choose to eat?
27949But do n''t they have any wages at all?
27949But does he tell all the people they must not come?
27949But does she work every day in the field with her feet only half covered?
27949But had all those little babies no mothers?
27949But how can we_ know_ what is according to His will?
27949But how could there be a split?
27949But how could you_ help_ it?
27949But if they came to see_ me_, Aunt Gary?
27949But if we give you a whole drawer,said Miss Macy,"you must be content with one peg in the wardrobe-- will you?"
27949But if_ I_ wanted to see them, could n''t they, some of them, come together to see me?
27949But is it true they are coming to attack Washington?
27949But is n''t it difficult to know sometimes what to do?
27949But it will not go on, will it?
27949But my dear Miss Randolph-- you know we are friends?
27949But one little soldier can not be all the rank and file of this army?
27949But suppose he was afraid of being thought afraid?
27949But suppose the Southern States should just do that;--say they would break off and govern themselves?
27949But suppose you_ are_ under fire?
27949But then arises the question,said he,"how much do you want?
27949But this is not such a case?
27949But try it by the moral effect; what sort of a fellow would a man be who did so, Miss Randolph?
27949But what are they doing?
27949But what did he do to Darry?
27949But what do you mean?
27949But what is to hinder their going to the same milliner and mantua- maker, for instance, or the same cabinet- maker,--and buying the same things?
27949But what keeps them away, Maria? 27949 But what made you choose such a time?
27949But what will be the end of it?
27949But what_ is_ the matter? 27949 But where does the music come from?"
27949But where in the world did you and Aunt Catherine come together?
27949But where_ is_ the church?
27949But who sold them first?
27949But why am I an_ Egyptian_ glass?
27949But why does he stand so, Preston?
27949But will He keep me from impatience, and take pride out of my heart? 27949 But with_ me_?"
27949But without any trimming at all?
27949But wo n''t you explain it? 27949 But you and the rest of the people-- don''t you go anywhere to church?
27949But you will dance?
27949But your wages, Margaret?
27949But, Daisy, have you studied this question?
27949But, Daisy,said Dr. Sandford,"do you know that there are different opinions on this very point?"
27949But, Dr. Sandford,I said, as I followed him,"you will not do anything about sending Margaret back?"
27949But-- other things?
27949But-- will Miss Pinshon go to Melbourne?
27949But_ could_ they be?
27949Called me? 27949 Can you justify yourself, Daisy?"
27949Can you justify yourself?
27949Can you prove your position, Daisy?
27949Can you read the Bible, George?
27949Can you read the Bible, Margaret?
27949Captain Thorold,said I--"I mean Mr. Thorold, do n''t you obey your orders?"
27949Christian,I whispered,"wo n''t you earn your right to your name?"
27949Climate, perhaps?
27949Could n''t you make it for yourself, Uncle Darry?
27949Could n''t you put some other sort of trimming?
27949Daisy, are you going to- night?
27949Daisy, did_ you_ go?
27949Daisy, do you think this governess of yours has been a good governess?
27949Daisy, have you found many''wonderful things''at Magnolia?
27949Daisy, have you heard lately from your father or mother?
27949Daisy, what would your father and mother say to such a course of action? 27949 Daisy, when is your mother coming home?"
27949Daisy, where are your thoughts?
27949Daisy, you are not right to- day?
27949Daisy, you dance with me?
27949Daisy,said Miss Cardigan,"you have nobody that is dear to_ you_ likely to be engaged in the fray-- if there is one?"
27949Daisy,said Mrs. Sandford,"did you ever have anything to do with the Methodists?"
27949Daisy,said Preston,"you are just as fond of having your way as----""As what?
27949Daisy,said he,"are you going to make yourself unlike other people?"
27949Daisy,said he,"was it your wish or Margaret''s, that she should go North with you?"
27949Daisy,said he,"you have conquered me to- day-- I have yielded-- I owned myself conquered; but wo n''t you enlighten me?
27949Davis? 27949 Dere''ll come down orders for mo'', chile; and''spose I gives it to de company, what''ll Mis''Lisa do wid Maria?
27949Did Darry have a prayer- meeting without leave?
27949Did He say''Whatsoever you shall ask in my name, I will do it?'' 27949 Did I do anything with him?"
27949Did I ever do so?
27949Did I give you thinking to do?
27949Did he want you for this dance?
27949Did it do any good?
27949Did it ever occur to you, or rather, does it not occur to you now, that the girl''s design in coming may have been this very purpose of her freedom?
27949Did n''t I say that you could n''t pay compliments?
27949Did n''t you like him?
27949Did not her parents belong to your father?
27949Did she buy so many?
27949Did they appear to you as they did to Mrs. Sandford,--at the time?
27949Did they tell you that''the Lord is good; a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in Him?''
27949Did you choose these things, Grant?
27949Did you ever do so, Preston?
27949Did you ever go in?
27949Did you ever know_ him_ cowardly?
27949Did you get it from_ him_?
27949Did you have that dress made there?
27949Did you know you had head- ache a good deal of the time?
27949Did you never hear of Jesus?
27949Did you notice the colour of the haze in the west, this evening, at sunset?
27949Did you read to them then?
27949Did you say you could not read, Margaret?
27949Did you sleep well, Daisy?
27949Do I look it?
27949Do Miss Daisy know, it nebber lonesome where de Lord be? 27949 Do little missie ask de Lord for help?"
27949Do n''t it look like it? 27949 Do n''t they care?"

27949Do n''t you like to have me here?
27949Do n''t you like to learn things?
27949Do n''t you see it, Grant?
27949Do n''t you sometimes change your decisions?
27949Do n''t you think so?
27949Do n''t you want to see the rest of it?
27949Do n''t you wish to dance with anybody except me?
27949Do n''t_ you_ like it, Miss Daisy?
27949Do people come here to walk much?
27949Do they do the same work as the men?
27949Do they?
27949Do you care about that?
27949Do you care, Daisy?
27949Do you do nothing for exercise but those walks, which you do not take?
27949Do you expect to be under all the commands this High Mightiness may think proper to lay upon you?
27949Do you find the multiplication table there?
27949Do you know Preston Gary?

27949Do you like his looks?
27949Do you like it, Preston?
27949Do you like something else here better?--or what is your estimate, Daisy?
27949Do you like them?
27949Do you like these things better?
27949Do you mean home up_ there_?
27949Do you mean that among the cadets there has been a South and a North-- until now, lately?
27949Do you mean the servants?
27949Do you mean to say, Daisy, that the poor people down yonder at Magnolia want such things as gowns and blankets?
27949Do you mean yesterday?
27949Do you mind going alone?
27949Do you read the Bible to them, Darry?

27949Do you suppose Miss Cardigan''s were when she was handling her cabbages?
27949Do you think I have been raised like a Yankee, to take care of my shoes? 27949 Do you think Mr. Edwards would make any objection?"
27949Do you think it is ever excusable to forget duty?
27949Do you think it would say what it did not mean?
27949Do you think so?
27949Do you think so?
27949Do you think that was a proper thing to do, Daisy?
27949Do you think there is no difference between me and an old nigger?
27949Do you think we are going to have these vulgar Northerners rule over_ us_? 27949 Do you think,"Dr. Sandford went on,"that in this view of the case we had better send her back to Magnolia when you leave Washington?"
27949Do you want to go and take a drive with me?
27949Do you want to see him? 27949 Do you?"
27949Do you?
27949Do_ you_ mean to be anything of that sort?
27949Does Darius live there?
27949Does Mr. Edwards forbid them_ all_ to come?
27949Does Mr. Edwards make it a rule that you are not to hold prayer- meetings?
27949Does he call him a great man?
27949Does he forbid them to come?
27949Does he not obey the regulations?
27949Does it not change your mind about taking her on?
27949Does it not give your mother a right, that the mother of this girl and her grandmother were the property of your ancestors?
27949Does it not please you?
27949Does it take long to prepare, Daisy?
27949Does it?
27949Does not hinder you from going on with study?
27949Does_ nobody_, among all the people, read the Bible?
27949Find whom?
27949For Margaret?
27949For instance, you are so well that you never get tired?
27949For little missis? 27949 For the third time, what is the matter with them?"
27949Forgive you what, sir?
27949Fort Putnam? 27949 Four days-- for what?"
27949French have you studied?
27949Friends?
27949From Magnolia? 27949 From Magnolia?"
27949George,said I,"I want to know where you go to church?"
27949Given up? 27949 Grey?"
27949Had n''t you?
27949Has his report taken away your desire to make the trial?
27949Has she managed things on the same system for the four years past?
27949Has your mother come back, Daisy?
27949Have you any similar system of teaching for those who are outside? 27949 Have you been up to the old fort?"

27949Have you read any history, Daisy?
27949Have you secured a large circle of friends among your schoolmates,--that are to last for ever?
27949Have you thought upon that?
27949Haze? 27949 He is a friend of yours, Miss Randolph?"
27949He is my guardian-- don''t you know, Preston? 27949 Help it?"
27949Here?
27949Hit the right thing this time, did n''t she? 27949 How are you going to give expression, when there is nothing to express?"
27949How came you to be here now, if you are in such a hurry?
27949How came you to be on guard again so soon? 27949 How can I?"
27949How can one ask for everything''in faith, nothing wavering?'' 27949 How can one know?
27949How can you? 27949 How come you to be one of the red sashes this morning?"
27949How comes that?
27949How could they help submitting?
27949How could you_ make_ them?
27949How did you come here, Daisy?
27949How did you know?
27949How do they seem, Daisy?
27949How do you account for it? 27949 How do you do when it storms very hard-- at night?"
27949How do you do, Daisy?
27949How do you do?
27949How do you do?
27949How do you know it?
27949How do you like it, Daisy?
27949How do you make it out, Daisy?
27949How do you mean?
27949How is it that you be on such good terms with a rebel? 27949 How is that?
27949How is that?
27949How let um light shine?
27949How long does the summer vacation last?
27949How long will you want, Daisy, to take proper leave of these friends?
27949How many friends?
27949How many lessons does this lady think a person of your age and capacity can manage in the twenty- four hours?
27949How much does it cost? 27949 How much of a lesson, for instance?"
27949How much will it cost?
27949How much would it be to make the dress plain?
27949How much would that be?
27949How much would_ that_ be?
27949How much?
27949How shall I find out?
27949How shall I help it in future?
27949How should I?
27949How should_ you_ know? 27949 How then with this other service?"
27949How then?
27949How was it, my dear?
27949How was it?
27949How was it?
27949How was that?
27949How well Daisy looks this morning, do n''t she?
27949How will you have it trimmed?
27949I am?
27949I do n''t believe you did,said his sister;"but what_ did_ you mean?
27949I guess she is n''t anybody, is she?
27949I hope that it is not going to be in poetry?
27949I mean-- Dr. Sandford, for instance, suppose somebody stole your watch from you; would you lose the right to it?
27949I mean-- if at first-- Dr. Sandford, had n''t the people that were sold, had n''t they rights too?
27949I should like to know how long does mathematics last, before you are allowed to have coffee?
27949I think Dr. Sandford told me that your father and mother are abroad?
27949I want to stop a moment here on some business,said Mrs. Sandford, as we came to Miss Cardigan''s corner;"would you like to go in with me, Daisy?"
27949I was thinking, and remembering----"Pray what were you remembering?
27949I wonder if women do n''t wear long hair where she came from?
27949I wonder who she is?
27949I? 27949 I?
27949I? 27949 If nobody knows what he can do, how is it so certain that he is a great man?"
27949If not?
27949If you are a good soldier in an enemy''s country, always with work to do; will you wish to be off your guard, or off duty?
27949If you love your Captain?
27949In what?
27949In writing?
27949Is Dr. Sandford your cousin, Miss Randolph?
27949Is Miss Randolph to come to me, Madame?
27949Is Mrs. Sandford in Melbourne-- I mean, near Melbourne-- now?
27949Is dressing so important?
27949Is guard duty very disagreeable?
27949Is he any relation to you?
27949Is he? 27949 Is he?"
27949Is it all right, noo?
27949Is it costly, ma''am?
27949Is it not?
27949Is it possible you think the Bible means that literally?
27949Is it so everywhere, Miss Cardigan?
27949Is it work or play?
27949Is it, Daisy?
27949Is it? 27949 Is it?"
27949Is that all, Daisy?
27949Is that your notion of me?
27949Is there anything about Egypt?
27949Is there so much trouble everywhere in the world?
27949Is this it? 27949 Is_ that_ it?"
27949It is near the time now when you always leave Magnolia, is it not?
27949Jem,said I,"why do n''t you come to the house Sunday evenings any more?"
27949Keeps you busy?
27949Know anything about what, Daisy? 27949 Lansing, look here, ca n''t you take your things out of this drawer?
27949Ma''am,said I,"do you think people that are_ rich_ ought to give all they have?"
27949Ma''am?
27949Maggie, where is your mistress''s room?
27949Margaret,I said,"shut Miss Pinshon''s door, will you?"
27949Maria,said I,"what is the best way-- I mean, how can one let one''s light shine?"
27949Maybe none of our people would like to go away?
27949Might I offer myself as a guide? 27949 Miss Cardigan,"I said,"can any one be a Christian and yet-- yet--""Do something unworthy a Christian?"
27949Miss Daisy done promise me, I go''long with Miss Daisy?
27949Miss Daisy wo n''t never do everything for herself?
27949Miss Lansing--This was bright- eyes, who bowed and smiled-- she always smiled-- and said,"How do you do?"
27949Miss Pinshon, what ails that child?
27949Miss Randolph-- won''t you speak? 27949 Miss St. Clair, will you come and be introduced to Miss Randolph?"
27949Missie want to see Darry''s house?
27949Mr. Edwards hinders you?
27949Mr. Thorold,--I broke the silence,--"if the South should do such a thing, what would happen?"
27949Mr. Thorold,said I, beginning cautiously,"do you want to have slavery go into the territories?"
27949Mr. Thorold,said I,"do you know Mr. Davis of Mississippi?"
27949Must one be ungraceful in order to be military?
27949My dear-- do you two know each other? 27949 Nicer?
27949No more funds?
27949No; how could I be sorry? 27949 No?
27949None?
27949Nor you them?
27949Not found it yet?
27949Not of your own country?
27949Not when you are attacked?
27949Now what do you want,_ mon enfant_? 27949 Now you have waked up, Miss Daisy?"
27949Now, Preston, look; what are they about? 27949 Now, what is it that you require?
27949Of_ what_? 27949 Oh no, Preston--_this_; what is it?"
27949Oh!--But it had to be dug out, I suppose?
27949Oh, is that it?
27949Oh, may I?
27949Oh, thank you, Dr. Sandford: but may I spend all this?
27949On the ground--?
27949Or corsairs?
27949Or the same jeweller, or the same-- anything? 27949 People do n''t make allowances?"
27949Pirates?
27949Please of what?
27949Please, missis, may I be Miss Daisy''s girl?
27949Poorer?
27949Preston, did you strike Uncle Darry yesterday?
27949Preston?
27949Principles?
27949Quarters?
27949Rights of what sort?
27949Rose? 27949 Say what?"
27949Seriously?
27949Shall I go back with you?
27949Shall I see you to- morrow evening?
27949Shall we change them, Daisy?
27949Shall we go home now?
27949She has no family, you say, nor friends who live with her, or whom you meet at her house?
27949She''s handsome though, ai n''t she?
27949Since last summer?
27949Since yesterday morning?
27949Singing or dressing? 27949 So how, my bairn?"
27949So you take the best of the day for philosophy?
27949Soldiership?
27949Sorry?
27949Stand how?
27949Suppose they elect a Yankee President?
27949Suppose we were unjustly attacked?
27949Suppose you come and go up to the fort with me?
27949Tell me-- can''t they do what they like with their wages?
27949The bell will ring for tea directly,said Miss Macy, addressing herself to me;"are you ready?"
27949The cap?
27949The difference? 27949 The evenings you have to yourself?"
27949The hop?
27949The hop?--how did you like that?
27949The mothers of those little babies?
27949The other night?
27949The people?
27949The quarters? 27949 The riding- hall!--who rides in it?"
27949The sloth can not be tamed, can it?
27949The world knoweth us not,--the lot of all Christ''s people,--could it involve anything in itself very bad?
27949Then do n''t you know anything about what is in the Bible? 27949 Then do you think it proper for me to allow such to be the fact?"
27949Then he is your cousin?
27949Then he is your cousin?
27949Then how can one tell?
27949Then how can she go to walk?
27949Then let us go up there Saturday-- will you?
27949Then she do n''t go furder along the way we''re goin''?
27949Then what becomes of you?
27949Then what is the reason?
27949Then why come here, Daisy? 27949 Then why do they not come as usual, Maria?
27949Then why does he have so much of it?
27949Then will you speak to him, ma''am, so that he may not be angry with the people when they come?
27949Then you are glad you have only one year more at the Academy?
27949Then you can not go to Fort Putnam this afternoon?
27949Then you can read, Uncle Darry?
27949Then you do not blame me for taking the part I_ must_ take?
27949Then you have learned to individualize soldiers already?
27949Then, Margaret,said I at last,"is there no place where you can go to hear about the things in the Bible?"
27949Then, what are you studying for?
27949There''s Mr. Mason, next door to Miss Cardigan,--his father was a tailor; and the Steppes, two doors off, do you know what they were? 27949 There''s a new rose out, did ye see it?"
27949There,she said,"now you''ll do, wo n''t you?
27949These people?
27949They can not take Fort Sumter; do you think so?
27949They could not reach to the river, could they?
27949They have no time on Sundays?
27949Think I can not?
27949Think? 27949 Those?
27949To spend it? 27949 To study what?"
27949To- morrow evening?
27949Uncle Darry, I want to get on him-- may I?
27949Uncle Darry, does no one else but you read the Bible?
27949Uniform? 27949 Vase?"
27949Warm?
27949Was I?
27949Was that anybody I knew?
27949Was that correct?
27949Washington?
27949Well, go on, St. Clair-- what is there?
27949Well, my dear Daisy!--are you walked to death? 27949 Well, what in the world is that?"
27949Well, what pays them for working?
27949Well, what then, Preston?
27949Well,said Mr. Thorold, sitting down opposite me on a candle- box--"how do you think you would like camp life?"
27949Well?
27949Well?
27949Well?
27949Well?
27949What Miss Daisy talkin''about?
27949What Uncle Lot? 27949 What about Darry?"
27949What about Pete''s wife?
27949What about my independence?
27949What ails_ me_, then? 27949 What are the Methodists?"
27949What are you doing here, Daisy?
27949What are you going to change?
27949What are you going to do now, Daisy?
27949What are you going to do now?
27949What are you going to do with yourself now?
27949What are you going to do, Daisy?
27949What are you going to wear to- night, Daisy?
27949What are_ you_ out in it for?
27949What colour, Daisy?
27949What did you order him?
27949What do you do?
27949What do you know about her then, besides what she has told you? 27949 What do you know about it?"
27949What do you mean by a true Southerner? 27949 What do you mean by a''rail- splitter''?"
27949What do you mean by a''split''?
27949What do you mean by''Yankees''?
27949What do you say, Daisy?
27949What do you think makes the highest class, then?
27949What do you think they want?
27949What do you want me to do that for, Daisy?
27949What do you want to know so much?
27949What do you want? 27949 What do you?"
27949What does he do, Maria?
27949What does that mean?
27949What for, Sally?
27949What for?
27949What fort?
27949What government?
27949What has become of my friend, this seven years?
27949What has''um to care for, chile, I should like fur to know? 27949 What have been your principal studies for the past year?"
27949What have you got there, Preston?
27949What if he is?
27949What is Christian grace, Daisy?
27949What is an overseer?
27949What is it, my pet?
27949What is it, then?
27949What is it, then?
27949What is it?
27949What is it?
27949What is it?
27949What is nonsense?
27949What is on the carpet now?
27949What is on the other side of the house?
27949What is right, Daisy? 27949 What is that, Miss Cardigan?"
27949What is that?
27949What is that?
27949What is that?
27949What is the matter with them?
27949What is the matter, Daisy? 27949 What is the matter, Daisy?"
27949What is the matter,I asked,"that the people do not come on Sunday evening as they used?
27949What is the matter?
27949What is the next thing? 27949 What is the use of it?"
27949What is this for?
27949What is this place for?
27949What is this, ma''am?
27949What is this?
27949What is under discussion?
27949What is your rule for individual people?
27949What is_ bonny_, ma''am?
27949What kind was it?
27949What lies between the eyes and mouth?
27949What makes you dislike Northerners so much?
27949What man?
27949What matter would that be?
27949What means can he have?
27949What mood?
27949What noise?
27949What other people?
27949What people? 27949 What question?"
27949What right have you to shoot a man for doing no worse than you do? 27949 What shall my watchword be?"
27949What shall we do with her?
27949What sort of a person?
27949What sort of discourse did the flowers hold to you, little one?
27949What sort of evil can_ you_ possibly fear, in connection with such an innocent recreation? 27949 What sort of exercise do you think will be good for her, ma''am?"
27949What sort of things make you tired? 27949 What sort of trouble?"
27949What sort of trouble?
27949What sort? 27949 What then, Daisy?
27949What then, Daisy?
27949What thing, ma''am?
27949What things?
27949What time in the day do you walk?
27949What wages does Darry have?
27949What was it all that happened last night?
27949What was it?
27949What was your opinion on that subject?
27949What were you doing the rest of the time?
27949What will?
27949What would it be, Melinda?
27949What would you think of a man,said my companion, gravely,"who should suffer some one to give him such a blow, without taking any notice of it?"
27949What would_ you_ do in case it came to fighting?
27949What''s Christmas, anyhow?
27949What''s the use of turnin''the house into a clap of thunder like that? 27949 What, if you please?"
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949What?
27949When is he coming?
27949When then?
27949When you have done that horse, will you show me your place? 27949 When''s Christmas, Miss Daisy?"
27949Where are her things going, Miss Bentley?
27949Where are the stables? 27949 Where did you come from?"
27949Where do they all go to church, Preston?
27949Where do you and all the rest go to church?
27949Where have you come from?
27949Where have you hid yourself since you have come here?
27949Where is your home here, Darry?
27949Where shall we go?
27949Where she gwine to?
27949Where?
27949Where?
27949Where_ are_ the mothers of all these babies, Darry?
27949Which side are you on?
27949Which side will he take?
27949Which_ what_ were? 27949 Who are those people that wear grey, with a black stripe down the leg?"
27949Who are you with?
27949Who bought them?
27949Who cares if they care? 27949 Who cares?"
27949Who do you hope will be elected?
27949Who does?
27949Who first? 27949 Who is Edwards?"
27949Who is Miss Pinshon?
27949Who is doing the work, Maria?
27949Who is going to fight?
27949Who is it now?
27949Who is she? 27949 Who is that, Daisy?"
27949Who is to decide it?
27949Who lives in that house?
27949Who made the rules?
27949Who make''em? 27949 Who sold them first?"
27949Who talked about_ Ã   plomb_?
27949Who then?
27949Who was that?
27949Who will come, Maria?
27949Who?
27949Whom did you dance with?
27949Whom had you with you?
27949Whom were you with?
27949Whose is that with the vase on top?
27949Whose rules?
27949Why did n''t you bring him along? 27949 Why did you not come to speak to me?"
27949Why do n''t you go?
27949Why do n''t you?
27949Why may I not understand you?
27949Why no?
27949Why not, if you like it?
27949Why not? 27949 Why not?"
27949Why not?
27949Why not?
27949Why should n''t they have wages?
27949Why should the rule be different for nations and for individual people?
27949Why, Daisy!--is this Daisy?
27949Why, do n''t you know?
27949Why, where_ have_ you been? 27949 Why?"
27949Why?
27949Why?
27949Why?
27949Why?
27949Why?
27949Will one of these do?
27949Will you be out of patience with my stupidity?
27949Will you come and walk with me?
27949Will you dance with me after that?
27949Will you do it, if I show it you?
27949Will you go for a walk, Daisy?
27949Will you please to answer it?
27949Will you sit down?
27949Will you tell me what is the matter with you?
27949With breakfast?
27949With one of whom? 27949 Wo n''t you explain?"
27949Wo n''t you give everybody some, Maria?
27949Would Mr. Edwards object to it, do you think? 27949 Would he let them come?"
27949Would it trouble you to have the time a little anticipated?
27949Would n''t you have him fight in such a case?
27949Would you_ like_ to read?
27949Yes, Dr. Sandford;--but--"But what, if you will be so good?
27949Yes, and what will you be good for to- morrow?
27949Yes, but in what?
27949Yes, but the Jews were commanded to fight, were they not?
27949Yes-- he is a cadet-- didn''t you know it? 27949 Yes; but what is it I do n''t know anything about?"
27949Yes; have you got all you want?
27949Yesterday? 27949 You are satisfied?"
27949You are thinking of''hear both sides,''Aunt Catherine? 27949 You can read, I suppose?"
27949You did? 27949 You do n''t think you deserve it?"
27949You do not approve it?
27949You do not mean that it would come to_ fighting_?
27949You do not mean that you would do it?
27949You do not suppose that such words as those you quoted just now, were meant to be a practical guide in the daily affairs of life? 27949 You do not think it hard to do things for anybody you love?"
27949You do not want slavery to be allowed in the territories?
27949You had not thought of this before?
27949You have been over the Flirtation walk, of course?
27949You have made up your mind that you do not care about staying to the end here?
27949You have n''t a sore throat?
27949You have never brought your microscope here, Grant? 27949 You have seen him?"
27949You know nothing of the division of the nations, of course?
27949You know what it is?
27949You know what made that poor widow give her two mites?
27949You like Magnolia after all?
27949You think it_ was_ proper?
27949You would like to use your pony and chaise again?
27949You would not have it_ so_, Daisy, my dear?
27949You would not have me go in company with self- reproaches all day to- morrow? 27949 You''ll come to me by the way, for another look at you, in your officer''s uniform?"
27949You? 27949 You_ are_ Southern?"
27949Your cousin was there?
27949Your watch against what? 27949 _ Bought_ the fathers and mothers of all these hundreds of people?"
27949_ Cowardly_, Gary?
27949_ Do n''t_ you know any better than that? 27949 _ Has_ taken?"
27949_ How much_ ought one to do, Miss Cardigan?
27949_ Must?_"You know I must too, Dr. 27949 _ No_ colour?"
27949_ The world knoweth us not._--What did that mean?
27949_ Wet?_said I.
27949_ What_ is it?
27949--"Daisy, who''s head in mathematics, you or St. Clair?
27949--"She''ll bring you lots of queer things, wo n''t she?"
27949--"_That_ did n''t come from China?"
27949A blue sash, now, Daisy?"
27949Ah, but how could I?
27949Ai n''t there servants?"
27949And I asked the Lord, what could I do?
27949And Lotty will bring us up a bit of hot toast-- or is bread the better, my dear?
27949And by- the- by when does your day begin?"
27949And for the first time a question stole into my mind, what was I, Daisy, doing?
27949And he asked his aunt"where she had seen that extract?"
27949And how came you here?
27949And how could I evade or shirk the question?
27949And how could I save money if I spent it?
27949And how should that be?
27949And now must I dress and undress myself before so many spectators?
27949And so you are another?"
27949And towards how many more?
27949And were you riding up and through the quarters all the afternoon?"
27949And what if not enough?
27949And what sorts of bulbs were there?
27949And what then?
27949And what was this little flutter at my heart about gentlemen''s words and looks of homage and liking?
27949And when He has written''Whatsoever,''are you going to write it over and put''anything not too hard''?
27949And whence were they to be, even in any measure, refilled, if all the supply must, as usual, be led off in other directions?
27949And where did ye find it, my dear?"
27949And where was she now?
27949And who had the best right?
27949And why had Mrs. Sandford"feared"I would not go to the hops?
27949And why should not a nation do, on a larger scale, what a man may do?"
27949And why was I ruminating on styles and colours, and proposing to put on another dress that should be more becoming the next time?
27949And you like pretty things, Daisy, and you did not choose them?"
27949And you would be delighted, would n''t you?"
27949And, above all, where could I pray?
27949Are furs and feathers, for instance, wicked things?"
27949Are n''t you going to be so good as to give me some clue to this mystery?
27949Are there many soldiers here?"
27949Are they not all God''s voices?
27949Are they tired of the reading, Maria?"
27949Are those the cadets?"
27949Are you going to write it over again?"
27949Are you in Egypt?
27949Are you the very same Daisy?
27949Are you tired, Daisy?"
27949As I said I was in fairyland; and how shall one describe fairyland?
27949As a matter of favour?"
27949Aye, I was sure I would need it; but how was a watch to be kept up, if I could never be alone to take counsel with myself?
27949But Miss Pinshon was asking me if I understood arithmetic?
27949But St. Clair is smart, is n''t she?"
27949But do they?"
27949But do you ken what will clear the clouds away?"
27949But now-- what could I do?
27949But the question stood, In what form could I carry beauty to them out of a florist''s shop?
27949But was I not living on it all the while?
27949But we can not turn him out, Daisy; he is going fast enough; on what errand, do you think, is he bent?"
27949But what if pleasure that marred better pleasure-- that interrupted duty?
27949But what makes_ you_ want to get away from home more than all the rest of them?"
27949But what then?
27949But whatever do you think her father will say to you?"
27949But why have I_ not_ seen you, all this while?"
27949But you would allow a man, or a nation, to fight in self- defence, would not you?"
27949But you_ are_ South?"
27949But, Daisy, do you think your father and mother would be satisfied with such a statement of your condition?"
27949But, Preston, why are you not over yonder with the others?"
27949But, if I had it, what would be left for Margaret?
27949Ca n''t she manage with this half?"
27949Can I get them here?"
27949Clair?"
27949Could I go there in that name?
27949Could I stop the fellow?
27949Could Preston have been doing anything wrong?
27949Could it be possible there would be a trial?
27949Could the Yankees give that?
27949Daisy, are you going to work hard this year?"
27949Daisy, do n''t you know any more about lace than to ask such a question?"
27949Daisy, do you know what I mean by''quantity?''"
27949Daisy, do you love me?"
27949Daisy, what have you to do with all this?
27949Dere''s Pete''s wife--""Pete''s wife?"
27949Did I not think with joy at that very minute of the words,"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of_ these_, ye have done it unto me?"
27949Did it not know me, last night?
27949Did n''t you know that?"
27949Did you find the hops so dull?"
27949Do I use strong words?
27949Do Miss Daisy love Him, den?"
27949Do n''t they have any wages at all, Preston?"
27949Do n''t you give Medusa one of those sweet almonds, Daisy-- not one, do you hear?"
27949Do n''t you know, you are to be my light and my watchword in what lies before me?"
27949Do n''t you realize yet that we have a civil war on our hands, Aunt Catherine?
27949Do n''t you recollect?
27949Do they_ all_ cost as much as these?"
27949Do you find that it gives you an appetite?"
27949Do you know how St. Clair twists her upper lip?
27949Do you know the multiplication and division tables?"
27949Do you like that?
27949Do you mean, you_ do n''t_ mean, that you are never coming any more?"
27949Do you see, sir?"
27949Do you take too long drives in your pony- chaise?"
27949Do you think South Carolina and Virginia_ gentlemen_ are going to live under a rail- splitter for a President?
27949Do you think you shall sleep?"
27949Do you?"
27949Does anybody know what that means, who has not made it the single plank bridge over an abyss?
27949Does it come so often?"
27949Does not that give them a right to her services?
27949Does not that law give a man a right to what he has honestly bought?"
27949Does she think she is going to take_ that_ tone with you?"
27949Does the cap fit, Daisy?"
27949Dr. Sandford interrupted my thoughts again--"How is it with friends out of school?"
27949Edwards?"
27949Eh?
27949Everything was handsome and nice; everything was in the neatest order; but-- where were my clothes to go?
27949From there my mind went off to the people around me at Magnolia; were there some to be taught here perhaps?
27949Graceful, and becoming, and elegant, more than any other adornment; what then?
27949Had I been giving Margaret a lesson in rebellion, and preparing her to claim her rights at some future day?
27949Had I done this, when I was choosing my chinchilla cap and grey cloak?
27949Had n''t you better be walking home, before Medusa comes looking out for you?"
27949Has he taught you to turn Abolitionist?"
27949Has n''t she a carriage of her own, I wonder, or how does she travel?
27949Have I talked so very much?"
27949Have n''t you received an invitation?"
27949Have you agreed to give your cousin half the evening?"
27949Have you been all this time pleasing Margaret and_ not_ yourself?"
27949Have you ever been under fire?"
27949Have you many trunks?"
27949Have you suddenly become bankrupt?
27949Have_ you_ got any, Uncle Darry?"
27949He looked hard at me as I came up; and asked me earnestly how I felt that afternoon?
27949How came you to know that Thorold?"
27949How can one be sure?"
27949How can she get it?"
27949How could I help liking it?
27949How could I see Thorold, or anybody?
27949How could I, if I was going no more to the hops?
27949How do you think it is?"
27949How far would the rebels carry their work?
27949How had this come about?
27949How is it-- this is what puzzles me-- that other people who call themselves Christians do not think as you do about this matter?"
27949How much of yourself have you left by the way?"
27949How much ought one to spend, for such things?"
27949How much would it all cost?
27949How old are you?"
27949How ought one to let one''s light shine?"
27949How should I come?"
27949How should I manage Dr. Sandford?
27949How should there be?
27949How was I to tell him?
27949How would it be if I had been to a dozen; and where might it end?
27949How''s the riding cap, Daisy?"
27949I asked him what he was singing about home?
27949I entering the lists with Faustina St. Clair, going in her ways?
27949I got into a brown study, and was waked out of it by Miss Cardigan''s"What is it, my dear?"
27949I had always had the comfort of great space and ample conveniences about me; was it a_ luxury_ I had enjoyed?
27949I heard inquiries after"Mis''Felissy"and"Mass''Randolph,"and then the question,"Mis''''Lizy, is this little missis?"
27949I heard no more of what my aunt was saying, till she turned to me again and asked,"Where are you going to pass the vacation?"
27949I mean, a lawyer or a doctor or a professor?"
27949I put mine in it, while he went on,--"How comes it, then, that you take such a view of such a question?"
27949I said;"and with Aunt Gary''s leave?"
27949I saw you cross into the camp With whom were you going there?"
27949I swallowed the ground with my feet during my walk; but before the walk came to an end the question began to come up in my mind, what was the matter?
27949I thought, and what did she mean by their all"belonging to me?"
27949I was content with the terms of service; but now about dancing, or rather, the dancing party?
27949I was not too busy to dance with you: and I was promised-- how many dances?
27949I wonder if that is the way you are going through the world in future?
27949I wonder, Margaret, if they will have any prayer- meetings in Magnolia now?"
27949I would fain not have spoken, but how could I help it?
27949I_ would_ pray; but what next?
27949If I was right, what was the use of his grey coat, or of West Point itself?
27949Is all well, Daisy?"
27949Is it Daisy Randolph?
27949Is it a rough road, my bairn?"
27949Is it real humanity?"
27949Is it too rough for you?"
27949Is n''t that bonny?"
27949Is there anybody in that neighbourhood that is dear to you?"
27949It is not in my way to meddle with overseers-- How many people do you want to read to at once, Daisy?"
27949It was a June day-- can I ever forget it?
27949Let us go Saturday afternoon and take a long walk up to''Number Four''--do you like hills?"
27949Look here-- are you getting tired?"
27949Major Banks?
27949Major Banks?
27949May I show it to you some day?
27949Miss Daisy know dat?"
27949Miss Daisy please have her clothes off and go to bed?"
27949Miss Daisy, s''pose the devil walkin''round about a place; think it a nice place fur to be good in?"
27949Miss Pinshon next inquired how much I knew?
27949Must I give it up?
27949Must I not undeceive her?
27949Must everything I did be seen?
27949Must you go?"
27949Must you restrict yourself to mere''comfort and respectability''?
27949My mother and father had a great deal of money, too, to spare; enough, I thought, for lace and for the above tea and sugar, too; what then?
27949Neither you nor me, Daisy?"
27949No doubt my mother could dress me better than almost any of their mothers could dress them; what then?
27949Not the hops?
27949Now how are we going to get the cap down?"
27949Now, Preston why does that man stand so?"
27949Now, must I be content to have them never know it?
27949O Christian, wo n''t you?"
27949Of course they do not know anything; and why should they?
27949Oh, Grant, what have you done with her?"
27949One day Preston brought the matter up and asked if Daisy was going to have a school- mistress?
27949Only I remained to think it over and ask myself, could I let go my vantage ground?
27949Ought you to have anything to do with me?"
27949Page 163--Changed period to?
27949Page 249--Changed exclamation mark to question mark in--"Is there so much trouble everywhere in the world?"
27949Page 257--Capitalised"W"in-- Is it Daisy Randolph?
27949Page 355--Changed period to question mark after"next"in-- Who is next?
27949Pardon me, may I ask?"
27949Percival insinuatingly--"You are from the South?"
27949Perhaps you will find some way to come on and see me at Washington-- if the rebels do n''t take it first?"
27949Preston, where will_ you_ be?"
27949Randolph?"
27949Roses?
27949Ruined by my gloves?
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Sandford?"
27949Seriously, Miss Randolph, what do you think of a soldier''s life?"
27949She approves of work then, does she?"
27949She bid me tell Miss Daisy wo n''t she come down in de kitchen, and see all the works she''s a- doin''for Christmas, and de glorifications?"
27949She gave all she had, Miss Daisy, and the Lord liked it; do ye think you and me can do less?"
27949Should I tell him; would he believe; was it best to unveil the working of my own heart to that degree?
27949So many people, so many homes, and the light of the Bible not on them, nor in them?
27949So tired you could not sleep?"
27949So you do not like Magnolia?"
27949So, though I saw that he was very much amused, either at himself or me, I went on--"And those other buildings?"
27949Suppose somebody were to attack you now, for instance; ought I not to fight for it?"
27949Supposing I had that to buy tulips with?
27949That covers all; do n''t you see?"
27949That would certainly be a loss to Miss Cardigan; but I wondered how much?
27949The families along the river do you mean?"
27949The little grey dreadnought-- how would it go with my silk dresses?
27949The second, then, and all the others?"
27949Then, Daisy, will you make me understand it?
27949Then, He will tell them what to do with it; do ye understand, my dear?"
27949Then, as it softened and changed again--"Miss Randolph, permit me to ask one question-- Are you happy?"
27949There was no loophole here for excuses or getting off,"_ Whatsoever ye do._"Did I wish it otherwise?
27949There-- don''t get excited about it-- every Sunday evening, did you say?"
27949They told you something?"
27949Thorold?"
27949Thorold?"
27949Thorold?"
27949Thorold?"
27949Thorold?"
27949To stay how long?"
27949To- morrow?"
27949Wake up and tell us;--everybody knows_ you_ know;--what_ is_ Christian grace?
27949Was I escaping already from that bond and a mark of a Christian--"The world knoweth us not?"
27949Was I flattered by such admiration as his?--or_ any_ admiration?
27949Was I going to repeat here the process just gone through downstairs?
27949Was I right?
27949Was I willing to forego it?
27949Was I wishing to confound St. Clair?
27949Was it a paper weight?
27949Was it anything more than my pleasure in all pretty things?
27949Was it because the fire was burning in my own heart?
27949Was it pride?
27949Was it to be a morning''s work?
27949Was the battle to go so hard against me?
27949Was_ Margaret_ at the bottom of all these financial operations?"
27949Well, may I have the third, and so disappoint somebody else?"
27949Well, was it worth going for, all the way to see that old ruin?
27949Well, what did the flowers say to you to- day, my dear?
27949Well, you think it proper amusement for your mother''s daughter?
27949Well?"
27949Were not its original and proper channels bare?
27949Were these two spots but samples of the whole?
27949Were they not places for Christians to go to?
27949Were they?
27949Were you there?"
27949Were_ you_ there, Daisy?"
27949What a brilliance of remembrance comes over me now?
27949What about it?
27949What ails you?"
27949What are they here for?
27949What are you going to do to- morrow?"
27949What are you going to wear to- night?"
27949What are you speaking of?"
27949What are you talking about?"
27949What business had the_ Star of the West_ to be carrying those troops there?
27949What cadet was that who called you, Preston?"
27949What could I do?
27949What could I do?
27949What could it be to me, that such people as Captain Vaux or Captain Lascelles liked me?
27949What did I know?
27949What did you say?"
27949What do they want of monuments?"
27949What do you do at Christmas, Margaret?
27949What do you think would happen if a Northern President should be elected in the fall?"
27949What do you want to know about it for, Daisy?"
27949What does the Bible say?
27949What earthly harm?
27949What else ought you to have, Margaret?"
27949What had bewitched me?
27949What had the North?
27949What has Margaret to do with your cloaks?
27949What has Mrs. Sandford done with you?"
27949What have I to do with Darry''s wages?"
27949What have you done to yourself?
27949What have you done to yourself?
27949What have you got?"
27949What have you to do with it?"
27949What have you to say about that?"
27949What hinders them, Maria?
27949What is it I do n''t know anything about?"
27949What is it you want to do, Daisy?"
27949What is that for?"
27949What is the matter with him?"
27949What is the matter?
27949What is the use?
27949What is your shield for?
27949What is_ your_ notion of dignity?"
27949What keeps the people, Pete, and Eliza, and all, from coming?
27949What made you go and write that long stuff about Rameses?
27949What made you so late, Daisy?
27949What makes them work?"
27949What makes you act so?
27949What missis want to know?"
27949What more would my dear little book say to me?
27949What next?
27949What of Pete''s wife?"
27949What on earth have you got now by that?
27949What should a man do, Miss Randolph, when he is unjustly attacked?"
27949What signified the course and fate of nations hundreds of years ago?
27949What signified the power or beauty of my voice, when I had not the heart to send it up and down like a bird any longer?
27949What then?"
27949What was in fault?
27949What was it?"
27949What was the matter?
27949What was wrong?
27949What will become of his sciences and his microscope now?"
27949What would they do with wages?
27949What''orders''are you expecting?"
27949What''s the matter wi''''em, my bairn?"
27949What, and who had that been?
27949What_ then?_ Did I want style and a face too?
27949What_ then?_ Did I want style and a face too?
27949What_ was_ all this military schooling a preparation for, perhaps?
27949Where are her father and mother?"
27949Where did their money come from?"
27949Where did you come from?"
27949Where do they go to church?"
27949Where have you been?"
27949Where in the world will you set it up?"
27949Where is her room, hey?"
27949Where is the line, beyond which you, or I, for instance, have too much?"
27949Where should Christmas festivities come from?
27949Where was Preston, and Dr. Sandford, and Ransom, and what would become of Magnolia?
27949Where would Dr. Sandford, and Mr. Thorold, and Preston be?
27949Where''d us get books, most likely?"
27949Who care what he do?
27949Who is it to be, mamma?"
27949Who is it, mamma?"
27949Who is next?
27949Who is there for us to fight?"
27949Who lives in all those houses?"
27949Who was it?"
27949Who would know that I bore them well?
27949Who would look after my poor people?
27949Whose room is this, hey?--you somebody?"
27949Why could not all that be done easily, Preston?"
27949Why do n''t they have little carpets, and tables and chairs, and cups and saucers?
27949Why does he stand so?"
27949Why have n''t you been to see me?
27949Why not?
27949Why should n''t Darry have wages, too?
27949Why should n''t I speak it?"
27949Why, Daisy, I did not know--""What, sir?"
27949Why, to give all these hundreds an entertainment, it would cost-- have you any idea what it would cost?"
27949Will that distress you very much?"
27949Will you be so good as to show Miss Randolph her room?"
27949Will you come again and see them?
27949Will you get up, Miss Daisy?"
27949Wo n''t you give leave?"
27949Would I go home before parade?
27949Would Mr. Thorold understand me?
27949Would anybody say that a child could not have such a struggle?
27949Would he choose to run the risk?"
27949Would he let them come?"
27949Would it not, if I went there again?
27949Would n''t you like to go and see Melbourne again for a little while?"
27949Would there be a trial?
27949Would you like to go to the laboratory some day, where we learn to make different kinds of shot, and fire- works and such things?"
27949Would you like to go, Daisy?"
27949Yes, it suited me exactly; but what was to become of others if I were covered so luxuriously?
27949Yet it was perfectly fitting a lady''s child, if she could not afford other; and where was Margaret''s cloak to come from?
27949Yet the question came too, would my father like what I had been doing?
27949Yet,"how shall they hear without a preacher?"
27949You are from the South yourself, Miss Randolph?"
27949You can write and read, I dare say, Miss Randolph?"
27949You consume also a good deal of beef and mutton, nowadays?
27949You have not been through it yet?
27949You liked it?
27949You prefer substantials in food as in everything else?"
27949You will not send her back, will you?"
27949You would not like that life?"
27949Young ladies, do you hear that?
27949_ Had_ I changed?
27949all the people?"
27949and could I get at them?
27949and how did you come?"
27949and take orders from him?"
27949and thinking that it would be well it should be a contrast to Faustina St. Clair?
27949and what are you going to do here?"
27949and what did he do to Darry?
27949and what did he mean?"
27949and what opposition would be made to it?
27949and what should I do without that old and well- tried weapon of"all- prayer?"
27949and when did you come?
27949and where are we going?"
27949and where his home was?
27949and whether I did well?
27949and who lives with her?"
27949are you such a simpleton?"
27949as the servant of my Master, busy about His work, or taking pleasure that He had given me to take?
27949burnt almonds?
27949could I make up my mind to do for ever without the smile and regard of that portion of the world which little St. Clair represented?
27949could I not lock up anything that belonged to me?
27949do n''t you know about Jesus?"
27949does n''t he let you have prayer- meetings?"
27949entering the lists with her, on her own field?
27949for Aunt Catherine is in no mood to tell me-- have you two known each other long?"
27949how did you know that?
27949in the sentence--"Will that distress you very much?"
27949is it possible that''s you?
27949is n''t it, Macy?"
27949is n''t she?
27949or was I going to change?
27949or was this the sort of name and notoriety that became and befitted a servant of Jesus?
27949ought they not to be repaid?"
27949said Thorold, a little impatiently,"do these little dances unfit you for duty?"
27949said his sister- in- law''s voice,"do n''t you mean the child shall have any breakfast?
27949take no means of showing my displeasure, or of putting a stop to the naughtiness that called it forth?
27949that fourteen years do not know yet what"the world"means?
27949to hear preaching?"
27949was I going to enter the lists of fashion with my young companions, and try who would win the race?
27949was I to pass by quietly the insolence of St. Clair?
27949was I to take it quite quietly, and give no sign even of annoyance?
27949was I wrong?
27949were all my nice and particular habits to be crushed into one drawer and smothered on one or two clothes- pins?
27949what hinders?"
27949what''s we got to do wid praise- meetin''s or any sort of meetin''s?
27949with what should I put out this fire kindled in my heart, which seemed only to burn the fiercer whatever I threw upon it?
27949would they allow it, do you think?"
27949would they require much care?
27949would this be a triumph?
18687But how can we_ know_ what is according to His will?"
18687But suppose he was afraid of being thought afraid?"
18687Is it possible you think the Bible means that literally?"
18687Well?"
18687''Spose haint got de''terials, hey?
18687''_ Whatsoever_''� Miss Cardigan?
18687A friend of yours?
18687A prayer- meeting?
18687A right to do what they liked with themselves, and to earn money, and to keep their wives?
18687A soldier, Daisy? 18687 A walk?
18687About Jesus?
18687About where?
18687After I was in bed?
18687After all,said Miss Macy,"how is money that grew any better than money that is made?
18687Ai nt you goin''to try it on and see some how pretty it looks, Miss Daisy?
18687Am I to have breakfast in bed?
18687An acquaintance?
18687And Daisy? 18687 And Friday''s to- morrow?"
18687And applying it for yourself, Daisy, is it to cut off for the future � or ought it � all elegance and beauty? 18687 And do n''t you want to go?"
18687And do you have the same sort of thing on Sundays, for the out- of- door hands?
18687And does anybody say that you shall not have prayer- meetings?
18687And does he forbid them then? 18687 And does not anybody, except Darry when he goes with the carriage?"
18687And education, Daisy; and refined manners; and cultivated tastes; what will you do without all these? 18687 And have not the black fellows a right to defend themselves against the insolence of gentlemen?"
18687And he says that the prayer- meeting hinders the work, Jem?
18687And is that all?
18687And no ancient history?
18687And now, Margaret, what other things do you want, to be nice and comfortable? 18687 And now, do you know we must go down?
18687And the lady''s figure is like a pine tree, is n''t it? 18687 And the old vaults under here � I saw them as we passed by, � were they prisons, places for prisoners?"
18687And then, you''ll search for me?
18687And there is no church for you all to go to?
18687And these others, that I do see, are not soldiers then?
18687And what are you going to do now in Washington?
18687And what call have ye to search into it?
18687And what did the overseer do to Darry?
18687And what do they do to make the time pleasant?
18687And what do you think of correct grammar, and clean hands?
18687And what is he going to do with these seventy- fire thousand men, Christian?
18687And what is it that_ they_ will try to do?
18687And what is the system of punishment at Magnolia for such deeds?
18687And what was that?
18687And when shall we go?
18687And when will ye do it?
18687And where is Preston?
18687And who is that?
18687And who would buy them?
18687And would you have him stand by and see another injured?
18687And write, I suppose?
18687And ye have found, maybe, that this other sort of a school, that ye have gotten to now, is n''t helpful altogether? 18687 And you belong to me, Daisy?"
18687And you have a governess, Daisy? 18687 And you have n''t gone and fallen in love, callant, meanwhile, just to complicate affairs?"
18687And you will write to me?
18687Are Miss Pinshon done gone away, Miss Daisy?
18687Are n''t there Yankees among the cadets?
18687Are n''t you going to answer it?
18687Are the hills better than this?
18687Are they very heavy?
18687Are they willing to work for only that?
18687Are they working like_ men_, in the fields?
18687Are we slaves, that we should be ruled by a government we do n''t choose? 18687 Are you glad to get away from school?"
18687Are you going to be busy this afternoon?
18687Are you going to propitiate Miss Pinshon with it? 18687 Are you going to take care of the wants of everybody?"
18687Are you here yet?
18687Are you not ashamed of yourself?
18687Are you rested?
18687Are you sorry I take it?
18687Are you tired talking?
18687Are you tired, Daisy?
18687Are you tired, Daisy?
18687Are you tired?
18687Are you? 18687 At night?
18687Aunt Catherine?
18687Aunt Gary,I said that same evening, musing over the things in my boxes, �"does lace cost much?"
18687Away from Pete?
18687Beauty is a great thing, is n''t it? 18687 Believe what?"
18687Books, mademoiselle?
18687But Daisy, have you studied this question?
18687But Fort Putnam? 18687 But Randolph is not French, are you, Randolph?"
18687But Sundays? 18687 But about Washington, lad?
18687But are they compromised?
18687But at night, Margaret?
18687But can not they spend their wages for what they like?
18687But do n''t their little babies want them?
18687But do n''t they get what they choose to eat?
18687But do n''t they have any wages at all?
18687But does he tell all the people they must not come?
18687But does she work every day in the field with her feet only half covered?
18687But had all those little babies no mothers?
18687But how could there be a split?
18687But how could you_ help_ it?
18687But if they came to see_ me_, aunt Gary?
18687But if we give you a whole drawer,said Miss Macy,"you must be content with one peg in the wardrobe � will you?"
18687But is it true they are coming to attack Washington?
18687But is n''t it difficult to know sometimes what to do?
18687But it will not go on, will it?
18687But one little soldier can not be all the rank and file of this army?
18687But suppose the Southern States should just do that; � say they would break off and govern themselves?
18687But suppose you_ are_ under fire?
18687But then arises the question,said he,"how much do you want?
18687But then, may one have_ anything_ one asks for?
18687But this is not such a case?
18687But try it by the moral effect; what sort of a fellow would a man be who did so, Miss Randolph?
18687But what are they doing?
18687But what did he do to Darry?
18687But what do you mean?
18687But what is to hinder their going to the same milliner and mantua- maker, for instance, or the same cabinet- maker, � and buying the same things?
18687But what keeps them away, Maria? 18687 But what made you choose such a time?
18687But what will be the end of it?
18687But what_ is_ the matter? 18687 But where does the music come from?"
18687But where in the world did you and aunt Catherine come together?
18687But where_ is_ the church?
18687But who sold them first?
18687But why am I all_ Egyptian_ glass?
18687But why does he stand so, Preston?
18687But will He keep me from impatience, and take pride out of my heart? 18687 But without any trimming at all?"
18687But wo n''t you explain it? 18687 But you and the rest of the people � do n''t you go anywhere to church?
18687But you will dance?
18687But your wages, Margaret?
18687But � other things?
18687But � will Miss Pinshon go to Melbourne?
18687But, Daisy,said Dr. Sandford,"do you know that there are different opinions on this very point?"
18687But, Dr. Sandford,I said, as I followed him,"you will not do anything about sending Margaret back?"
18687But, if_ I_ wanted to see them, could n''t they, some of them, come together to see me?
18687But, my dear Miss Randolph � you know we are friends?
18687But, with_ me?_I said;"and with aunt Gary''s leave?"
18687But, with_ me?_I said;"and with aunt Gary''s leave?"
18687But_ could_ they be?
18687Called me? 18687 Can you justify yourself, Daisy?"
18687Can you justify yourself, Daisy?
18687Can you prove your position, Daisy?
18687Can you read the Bible, George?
18687Can you read the Bible, Margaret?
18687Captain Thorold,said I, �"I mean Mr. Thorold, do n''t you obey your orders?"
18687Christian,I whispered, �"wo n''t you earn your right to your name?"
18687Climate, perhaps?
18687Could n''t you make it for yourself, uncle Darry?
18687Could n''t you put some other sort of trimming?
18687Daisy, are you going to- night?
18687Daisy, did_ you_ go?

18687What sort of things make you tired? 18687 What sort of trouble?"
18687What sort of trouble?
18687What sort? 18687 What then, Daisy?
18687What then, Daisy?
18687What then?
18687What thing, ma''am?
18687What things?
18687What time in the day do you walk?
18687What uncle Lot? 18687 What wages does Darry have?"
18687What was it all that happened last night?
18687What was it?
18687What was your opinion on that subject?
18687What were you doing the rest of the time?
18687What will?
18687What would it be, Melinda?
18687What would you think of a man,said my companion gravely, �"who should suffer some one to give him such a blow, without taking any notice of it?"
18687What would_ you_ do in case it came to fighting?
18687What �?
18687What''s Christmas, anyhow?
18687What''s the use of turnin''the house into a clap of thunder like that? 18687 What, if you please?"
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What?
18687What_ is_ Christian grace, Daisy?
18687When is he coming?
18687When you have done that horse, will you show me your place? 18687 When''s Christmas, Miss Daisy?"
18687Where are her things going, Miss Bentley?
18687Where are the stables? 18687 Where did you come from?"
18687Where do they all go to church, Preston?
18687Where do they go to church, Preston?
18687Where do you and all the rest go to church?
18687Where have you come from?
18687Where have you hid yourself since you have come here?
18687Where is your home here, Darry?
18687Where shall we go?
18687Where she gwine to?
18687Where?
18687Where?
18687Where_ are_ the mothers of all these babies, Darry?
18687Which side are you on?
18687Which side will he take?
18687Which_ what_ were? 18687 Who are those people that wear grey, with a black stripe down the leg?"
18687Who are those, Dr. Sandford, those others dressed in dark frock coats, with bright bars over their shoulders? 18687 Who are you with?"
18687Who bought them?
18687Who cares if they care? 18687 Who cares?"
18687Who do you hope will be elected?
18687Who does?
18687Who first? 18687 Who is Edwards?"
18687Who is Miss Pinshon?
18687Who is doing the work, Maria?
18687Who is going to fight?
18687Who is it now?
18687Who is she? 18687 Who is that, Daisy?"
18687Who is to decide it?
18687Who is_ one?_I said, laughing.
18687Who lives in that house?
18687Who made the rules?
18687Who make''em? 18687 Who sold them at first?"
18687Who talked about_ à plomb_?
18687Who then?
18687Who was that?
18687Who will come, Maria?
18687Who?
18687Whom did you dance with?
18687Whom had you with you?
18687Whom were you with?
18687Whose is that with the vase on top?
18687Whose rules?
18687Why did n''t you bring him along? 18687 Why did you not come to speak to me?"
18687Why do n''t you go?
18687Why do n''t you know?
18687Why do n''t you?
18687Why may I not understand you?
18687Why no?
18687Why not, if you liked it?
18687Why not? 18687 Why not?"
18687Why not?
18687Why not?
18687Why should n''t they have wages?
18687Why should the rule be different for nations and for individual people?
18687Why, where_ have_ you been? 18687 Why?"
18687Why?
18687Why?
18687Why?
18687Why?
18687Why?
18687Will one of these do?
18687Will you be out of patience with my stupidity?
18687Will you come and walk with me?
18687Will you dance with me after that?
18687Will you do it, if I show it to you?
18687Will you go for a walk, Daisy?
18687Will you please to answer it?
18687Will you sit down?
18687Will you tell me what is the matter with you?
18687With breakfast?
18687With one of whom? 18687 With whom were you walking?"
18687Wo n''t you explain?
18687Wo n''t you give everybody some, Maria?
18687Would Mr. Edwards object to it, do you think? 18687 Would he let them come?"
18687Would it trouble you to have the time a little anticipated?
18687Would n''t you have him fight in such a case?
18687Would you_ like_ to read?
18687Yes � he is a cadet � did n''t you know it? 18687 Yes, Dr. Sandford; � but �""But what, if you will be so good?"
18687Yes, and what will you be good for to- morrow?
18687Yes, but in what?
18687Yes, but the Jews were commanded to fight, were they not?
18687Yes, but what is it I do n''t know anything about?
18687Yes; have you got all you want?
18687Yesterday? 18687 You are satisfied?"
18687You are thinking of''hear both sides,''aunt Catherine? 18687 You can read, I suppose?"
18687You did? 18687 You do n''t think you deserve it?"
18687You do not approve it?
18687You do not mean that you would do it?
18687You do not mean, that it would come to_ fighting?_"I do not think they would be such fools. 18687 You do not suppose that such words as those you quoted just now, were meant to be a practical guide in the daily affairs of life?
18687You do not think it hard to do things for anybody you love?
18687You do not want slavery to be allowed in the territories?
18687You had not thought of this before?
18687You have a good deal of time for study at night, too, do you not? 18687 You have been over the Flirtation walk, of course?"
18687You have made up your mind that you do not care about staying to the end here?
18687You have n''t a sore throat?
18687You have never brought your microscope here, Grant? 18687 You have seen him?"
18687You know nothing of the Division of the nations, of course?
18687You know what it is?
18687You know what made that poor widow give her two mites?
18687You like Magnolia after all?
18687You think it_ was_ proper?
18687You would like to use your pony- chaise again?
18687You would not have it_ so_, Daisy, my dear?
18687You would not have me go in company with self- reproaches all day to- morrow? 18687 You''ll come to me by the way, for another look at you, in your officer''s uniform?"
18687You_ are_ Southern?
18687Your cousin was there?
18687Your watch against what? 18687 _ Bought_ the fathers and mothers of all these hundreds of people?"
18687_ Cowardly_, Gary?
18687_ Do n''t_ you know any better than that? 18687 _ Had_ I changed?
18687_ Has_ taken?
18687_ How much_ ought one to do, Miss Cardigan?
18687_ Must?_"You know I must too, Dr. 18687 _ No_ colour?"
18687_ Proud?_said I.
18687_ Wet?_said I.
18687_ What_ is it?
18687A blue sash, now, Daisy?"
18687Ah, but how could I?
18687Ai nt there servants?"
18687And I asked the Lord, what could I do?
18687And Lotty will bring us up a bit of hot toast � or is the bread better, my dear?
18687And above all, where could I pray?
18687And for the first time a question stole into my mind, what was I, Daisy, doing?
18687And he asked his aunt"where she had seen that extract?"
18687And how came you here?
18687And how could I evade or shirk the question?
18687And how could I save money if I spent it?
18687And how should that be?
18687And now, must I dress and undress myself before so many spectators?
18687And so you are another?"
18687And towards how many more?
18687And were you riding up and down through the quarters all the afternoon?"
18687And what if not enough?
18687And what sorts of bulbs were there?
18687And what then?
18687And what was this little flutter at my heart about gentlemen''s words and looks of homage and liking?
18687And when He has written''Whatsoever,''are you going to write it over and put''anything not too hard''?
18687And whence were they to be, even in any measure, refilled, if all the supply must, as usual, be led off in other directions?
18687And where did ye find it, my dear?"
18687And where was she now?
18687And who had the best right?
18687And why had Mrs. Sandford"feared"I would not go to the hops?
18687And why should not a nation do, on a larger scale, what a man may do?"
18687And why was I ruminating on styles and colours, and proposing to put on another dress that should be more becoming the next time?
18687And you would be delighted, would n''t you?"
18687And, by the by, when does your day begin?"
18687Are fur and feathers for instance wicked things?"
18687Are n''t you going to be so good as to give me some clue to this mystery?
18687Are there many soldiers here?"
18687Are they tired of the reading, Maria?"
18687Are those the cadets?"
18687Are you going to write it over again?"
18687Are you in Egypt?
18687Are you the very same Daisy?
18687Are you tired, Daisy?"
18687As I said I was in fairyland; and how shall one describe fairyland?
18687As a matter of favour?"
18687Ay, I was sure I would need it; but how was a watch to be kept up, if I could never be alone to take counsel with myself?
18687But Miss Pinshon was asking me if I understood arithmetic?
18687But Preston, why are you not over yonder with the others?"
18687But St. Clair is smart, is n''t she?"
18687But do they?"
18687But do you ken what will clear the clouds away?"
18687But now � what could I do?
18687But the question stood, in what form could I carry beauty to them out of a florist''s shop?
18687But was I not living on it all the while?
18687But we can not turn him out, Daisy; he is going fast enough; on what errand, do you think, is he bent?"
18687But what if pleasure that marred better pleasure � that interrupted duty?
18687But what makes you want to get away from home more than all the rest of them?"
18687But what then?
18687But whatever do you think her father will say to you?"
18687But why have I not_ seen_ you, all this while?"
18687But you would allow a man, or a nation to fight in self- defence, � would not you?"
18687But you_ are_ South?"
18687But, Daisy, do you think your father and mother would be satisfied with such a statement of your condition?"
18687But, if I had it, what would be left for Margaret?
18687Ca n''t she manage with this half?"
18687Can I get them here?"
18687Clair?"
18687Could I go there in that name?
18687Could I stop the fellow?
18687Could Preston have been doing anything wrong?
18687Could it be possible there would be a trial?
18687Could the Yankees give that?
18687Daisy, are you going to work hard this year?"
18687Daisy, do n''t you know any more about lace than to ask such a question?"
18687Daisy, do you know what I mean by''quantity''?"
18687Dere''s Pete''s wife �""Pete''s wife?"
18687Did I not think with joy at that very minute of the words,"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of_ these_, ye have done it unto Me"?
18687Did I wish it otherwise?
18687Did it not know me, last night?
18687Did n''t you know that?"
18687Did you find the hops so dull?"
18687Do I use strong words?
18687Do Miss Daisy love Him, den?"
18687Do n''t they have any wages at all, Preston?"
18687Do n''t you give Medusa one of those sweet almonds, Daisy, � not one, do you hear?"
18687Do n''t you know, it makes a dog savage to feed him on raw meat?
18687Do n''t you know, you are to be my light and my watchword in what lies before me?"
18687Do n''t you realise yet that we have a civil war on our hands, aunt Catherine?
18687Do n''t you recollect?
18687Do they_ all_ cost as much as these?"
18687Do you find that it gives you an appetite?"
18687Do you know how St. Clair twists her upper lip?
18687Do you know the multiplication and division tables?"
18687Do you like that?
18687Do you mean, you_ do n''t_ mean, that you are never coming any more?"
18687Do you see, sir?"
18687Do you take too long drives in your pony- chaise?"
18687Do you think South Carolina and Virginia_ gentlemen_ are going to live under a rail- splitter for a President?
18687Do you think you shall sleep?"
18687Do you?"
18687Does anybody know what that means, who has not made it the single plank bridge over an abyss?
18687Does it come so often?"
18687Does n''t he let you have prayer- meetings?"
18687Does not that give them a right to her services?
18687Does not that law give a man a right to what he has honestly bought?"
18687Does she think she is going to take_ that_ tone with you?"
18687Does the cap fit, Daisy?"
18687Dr. Sandford interrupted my thoughts again �"How is it with friends out of school?"
18687Edwards?"
18687Eh?
18687Everything was handsome and nice; everything was in the neatest order; but � where were my clothes to go?
18687From there my mind went off to the people around me at Magnolia; were there some to be taught here perhaps?
18687Graceful, and becoming, and elegant, more than any other adornment; what then?
18687Had I been giving Margaret a lesson in rebellion, and preparing her to claim her rights at some future day?
18687Had I done this, when I was choosing my chinchilla cap and grey cloak?
18687Had n''t you better be walking come, before Medusa comes looking out for you?"
18687Has he taught you to turn Abolitionist?"
18687Has n''t she a carriage of her own, I wonder, or how does she travel?
18687Have I talked so very much?"
18687Have n''t you received an invitation?"
18687Have you agreed to give your cousin half the evening?"
18687Have you been all this time pleasing Margaret and not yourself?"
18687Have you ever been under fire?"
18687Have you many trunks?"
18687Have you suddenly become bankrupt?
18687Have you_ got_ any, uncle Darry?"
18687He looked hard at me as I came up; and asked me earnestly how I felt that afternoon?
18687He turned the conversation, by asking me if I had seen all the lions yet?
18687Her first question was, whether I was a good girl?
18687How call she get it?"
18687How came you to know that Thorold?"
18687How can one be sure?"
18687How could I help liking it?
18687How could I see Thorold, or anybody?
18687How could I, if I was going no more to the hops?
18687How did it not know Him?
18687How do you think it is?"
18687How far would the rebels carry their work?
18687How had this come about?
18687How is it � this is what puzzles me, � that other people who call themselves Christians do not think as you think about all this matter?"
18687How much of yourself have you left by the way?"
18687How much ought one to spend for such things?"
18687How much would it all cost?
18687How old are you?"
18687How ought one to let one''s light shine?"
18687How should I come?"
18687How should I manage Dr. Sandford?
18687How should there be?
18687How would it be if I had been to a dozen?
18687How''s the riding cap, Daisy?"
18687I asked him what he was singing about home?
18687I asked what they all were?
18687I demanded of Margaret_ what_ she had been saying?
18687I do not know what made me ask,"Was that anybody I knew?".
18687I entering the lists with Faustina St. Clair, going in her ways?
18687I expect nothing but she will be � what do you call them?
18687I got into a brown study, and was waked out of it by Miss Cardigan''s"What is it, my dear?"
18687I had always had the comfort of great space and ample conveniences about me; was it a luxury I had enjoyed?
18687I heard inquiries after"Mis''Felissy,"and"Mass''Randolph,"and then the question,"Mis''''Lizy, is this little missis?"
18687I heard no more of what my aunt was saying, till she turned to me again and asked, �"Where are you going to pass the vacation?"
18687I mean, a lawyer or a doctor or a professor?"
18687I own myself conquered � but the question I ask you is, whether I am justifiable?"
18687I put mine in it, while he went on,"How comes it then that you take such a view of such a question?"
18687I thought, and what did she mean by their all"belonging to me"?
18687I was content with the terms of service; but now about dancing, or rather the dancing party?
18687I was not too busy to dance with you; and I was promised � how many dances?
18687I wonder if that is the way you are going through the world in future?
18687I wonder, Margaret, if they will have any prayer- meetings in Magnolia now?"
18687I would fain not have spoken, but how could I help it?
18687I_ would_ pray; but what next?
18687Is all well, Daisy?"
18687Is it Daisy Randolph?
18687Is it a rough road, my bairn?"
18687Is it real humanity?"
18687Is it too rough for you?"
18687Is n''t it, Macy?"
18687Is n''t she?
18687Is n''t that bonny?"
18687Is there anybody in that neighbourhood that is dear to you?"
18687It is not in my way to meddle with overseers � How many people do you want to read to at once, Daisy?"
18687It was a June day � can I ever forget it?
18687Let us go Saturday afternoon and take a good, long walk up to''Number Four''� do you like hills?"
18687Look here � are you getting tired?"
18687Major Banks?
18687May I show it to you some day?
18687Miss Daisy know dat?"
18687Miss Daisy please have her clothes off and go to bed?"
18687Miss Daisy � do you like my cat; or would you like maybe to go in and look at my flowers?
18687Miss Daisy,''spose the devil walkin''round about a place; � think it a nice place fur to be good in?"
18687Miss Pinshon next inquired how much I knew?
18687Must I be guided by that?
18687Must I give it up?
18687Must I not undeceive her?
18687Must everything I did be seen?
18687Must you restrict yourself to mere''comfort and respectability''?
18687My mother and father had a great deal of money too, to spare; enough, I thought, for lace and for the above tea and sugar too; what then?
18687No doubt my mother could dress me better than almost any of their mothers could dress them; what then?
18687Not the hops?
18687Now how are we going to get the cap down?"
18687Now, Preston, why does that man stand so?"
18687Now, must I be content to have them never know it?
18687Of course they do not know anything; and why should they?
18687Oh, Christian, wo n''t you?"
18687Oh, Grant, what have you done with her?"
18687One day Preston brought the matter up and asked if Daisy was going to have a schoolmistress?
18687Only I remained to think it over and ask myself, could I let go my vantage ground?
18687Ought you to have anything to do with me?"
18687Pardon me, may I ask?"
18687Perhaps you will find some way to come on and see me at Washington � if the rebels do n''t take it first?"
18687Pete''s wife?
18687Preston, where will_ you_ be?"
18687Randolph?"
18687Roses?
18687Ruined by my gloves?
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Sandford?"
18687Seriously, Miss Randolph, what do you think of a soldier''s life?"
18687She approves of work then, does she?"
18687She bid me tell Miss Daisy wo n''t she come down in de kitchen, and see all the works she''s a- doin''for Christmas, and de glorifications?"
18687She gave all she had, Miss Daisy, and the Lord liked it; do ye think you and me can do less?"
18687Should I tell him?
18687So many people, so many homes, and the light of the Bible not on them, nor in them?
18687So tired you could not sleep?"
18687So you do not like Magnolia?"
18687So, though I saw that he was very much amused, either at himself or me, I went on �"And those other buildings?"
18687Supposing I had that to buy tulips with?
18687That would certainly be a loss to Miss Cardigan; but I wondered how much?
18687The families along the river, do you mean?"
18687The little grey dreadnought � how would it go with my silk dresses?
18687The second, then, and all the others?"
18687Then as it softened and changed again, �"Miss Randolph, permit me to ask a not irrelevant question � Are you happy?"
18687Then said Captain Percival insinuatingly �"You are from the South?"
18687Then, he will tell them what to do with it; do ye understand, my dear?"
18687There � do n''t get excited about it � every Sunday evening, did you say?"
18687They told you something?"
18687Thorold?"
18687Thorold?"
18687Thorold?"
18687Thorold?"
18687Thorold?"
18687To stay how long?"
18687To- morrow?"
18687Wake up and tell us; � everybody knows_ you_ know; � what_ is_ Christian grace?
18687Was I escaping already from that bond and mark of a Christian, �"The world knoweth us not"?
18687Was I flattered by such admiration as his?
18687Was I going to repeat here the process just gone through down stairs?
18687Was I right?
18687Was I willing to forego it?
18687Was I wishing to confound St. Clair?
18687Was it a paper weight?
18687Was it anything more than my pleasure in all pretty things?
18687Was it because the fire was burning in my own heart?
18687Was it pride?
18687Was it to be a morning''s work?
18687Was the battle to go so hard against me?
18687Was_ Margaret_ at the bottom of all these financial operations?"
18687Well, may I have the third, and so disappoint somebody else?"
18687Well, was it worth going for, all the way to see that old ruin?
18687Well, what did the flowers say to you to- day, my dear?
18687Well, you think it proper amusement for your mother''s daughter?
18687Well?"
18687Were these two spots but samples of the whole?
18687Were they not places for Christians to go to?
18687Were they?
18687Were you there?"
18687Were_ you_ there, Daisy?"
18687What about it?
18687What ails you?"
18687What and who had that been?
18687What are they here for?
18687What are you going to do to- morrow?"
18687What are you going to wear to- night?"
18687What are you talking about?"
18687What business had the''Star of the West''to be carrying those troops there?
18687What cadet was that who called you, Preston?"
18687What could I do?
18687What could I do?
18687What could it be to me, that such people as Captain Vaux or Captain Lascelles liked me?
18687What did I know?
18687What do they want of monuments?"
18687What do you do at Christmas, Margaret?
18687What do you think would happen if a Northern President should be elected in the fall?"
18687What do you want to know about it for, Daisy?"
18687What does the Bible say?
18687What earthly harm?
18687What else ought you to have, Margaret?"
18687What had bewitched me?
18687What had the North?
18687What has Margaret to do with your cloaks?
18687What has Mrs. Sandford done with you?"
18687What have I to do with Darry''s wages?"
18687What have you got?"
18687What have you to do with it?"
18687What have you to say about that?"
18687What hinders them, Maria?
18687What is it I do n''t know anything about?"
18687What is it now about Margaret?
18687What is it you want to do, Daisy?"
18687What is that for?"
18687What is the matter with him?"
18687What is the matter?
18687What is the use?
18687What is your shield for?
18687What is_ your_ notion of dignity?"
18687What keeps the people, Pete, and Eliza and all, from coming?
18687What made you go and write that long stuff about Rameses?
18687What made you so late, Daisy?
18687What makes them work?"
18687What missis want to know?"
18687What more would my dear little book say to me?
18687What next?
18687What of Pete''s wife?"
18687What on earth have you got now by that?
18687What should a man do, Miss Randolph, when he is unjustly attacked?"
18687What signified the course and fate of nations hundreds of years ago?
18687What signified the power or beauty of my voice, when I had not the heart to send it up and down like a bird any longer?
18687What sort of''orders''are you expecting?"
18687What sort should she be?"
18687What then?"
18687What was all this military schooling a preparation for, perhaps?
18687What was in fault?
18687What was it?"
18687What was the matter?
18687What was wrong?
18687What will become of his sciences and his microscope now?"
18687What would they do with wages?
18687What''s the matter wi''em, my bairn?"
18687What''s we got to do wid praise- meetin''s or any sort o''meetin''s?
18687What_ then?_ Did I want style and a face too?
18687What_ then?_ Did I want style and a face too?
18687Where are her father and mother?"
18687Where did their money come from?"
18687Where did you come from?"
18687Where do they go to church?"
18687Where have you been?"
18687Where in the world will you set it up?"
18687Where is her room, hey?"
18687Where is the line, beyond which you, or I, for instance, have too much?"
18687Where should Christmas festivities come from?
18687Where was Preston, and Dr. Sandford, and Ransom, and what would become of Magnolia?
18687Where would Dr. Sandford, and Mr. Thorold, and Preston be?
18687Where''d us get books, most likely?"
18687Who care what he do?
18687Who is it to be, mamma?"
18687Who is it, mamma?"
18687Who is next?
18687Who is there for us to fight?"
18687Who lives in all those houses?"
18687Who was it?"
18687Who would know that I bore them well?
18687Who would look after my poor people?
18687Whose room is this, hey?
18687Why could not all that be done easily, Preston?"
18687Why do n''t they have little carpets, and tables and chairs, and cups and saucers?
18687Why does he stand so?"
18687Why have n''t you been to see me?
18687Why not?
18687Why should n''t Darry have wages too?
18687Why should n''t I speak it?"
18687Why, Daisy, I did now know �""What, sir?"
18687Why, to give all these hundreds an entertainment, it would cost � have you any idea what it would cost?"
18687Will that distress you very much?"
18687Will you be so good as to show Miss Randolph her room?"
18687Will you get up, Miss Daisy?"
18687With whom were you going there?"
18687Wo n''t you give leave?"
18687Would I go home before parade?
18687Would Mr. Thorold understand me?
18687Would anybody say that a child could not have such a struggle?
18687Would he let them come?"
18687Would it not, if I went there again?
18687Would n''t you like to go and see Melbourne again for a little while?"
18687Would there be a trial?
18687Would you like to go to the laboratory some day, where we learn to make different kinds of shot, and fire- works and such things?"
18687Would you like to go, Daisy?"
18687Yes, it suited me exactly; but what was to become of others if I were covered so luxuriously?
18687Yet it was perfectly fitting a lady''s child, if she could not afford other; and where was Margaret''s cloak to come from?
18687Yet the question came too, would my father like what I had been doing?
18687Yet,"how shall they hear without a preacher?"
18687You are from the South yourself, Miss Randolph?"
18687You can write and read, I dare say, Miss Randolph?"
18687You consume also a good deal of beef and mutton, now- a- days?
18687You have not been through it yet?
18687You liked it?
18687You will not send her hack, will you?"
18687Young ladies, do you hear that?
18687all the people?"
18687and could I get at them?
18687and how did you come?"
18687and made discoveries?"
18687and take orders from him?"
18687and thinking that it would be well it should be a contrast to Faustina St. Clair?
18687and what are you going to do here?"
18687and what did he do to Darry?
18687and what did he mean?"
18687and what opposition would be made to it?
18687and what should I do without that old and well- tried weapon of"all- prayer"?
18687and when did you come?
18687and where are we going?"
18687and where his home was?
18687and where might it end?
18687and whether I did well?
18687and who lives with her?"
18687are you such a simpleton?"
18687as the servant of my Master, busy about His work, or taking pleasure that He had given me to take?
18687burnt almonds?
18687but may I spend all this?"
18687could I make up my mind to do forever without the smile and regard of that portion of the world which little St. Clair represented?
18687could I not lock up anything that belonged to me?
18687do n''t you know about Jesus?"
18687entering the lists with her, on her own field?
18687how did you know that?
18687is it possible that''s you?
18687or was I going to change?
18687or was this the sort of name and notoriety that became and befitted a servant of Jesus?
18687ought they not to be repaid?"
18687said Thorold, a little impatiently �"do these little dances unfit you for duty?"
18687said he, again, �"You?
18687said his sister- in- law''s voice,"do n''t you mean the child shall have any breakfast?
18687take no means of showing my displeasure, or of putting a stop to the naughtiness that called it forth?
18687that fourteen years do not know yet what"the world"means?
18687to hear preaching?"
18687was I going to enter the lists of fashion with my young companions, and try who would win the race?
18687was I to pass by quietly the insolence of St. Clair?
18687was I to take it quite quietly, and give no sign even of annoyance?
18687was I willing to be one of those whom fashion passes by as St. Clair had glanced on my dress � as something not worthy a thought?
18687was I wrong?
18687was it best to unveil the working of my own heart to that degree?
18687were all my nice and particular habits to be crushed into one drawer and smothered on one or two clothes pins?
18687were not its original and proper channels bare?
18687what are you speaking of?"
18687what have you done to yourself?
18687what hinders?"
18687what makes you act so?
18687with what should I put out this fire kindled in my heart, which seemed only to burn the fiercer whatever I threw upon it?
18687would he believe?
18687would they allow it, do you think?"
18687would they require much care?
18687would this be a triumph?
18687you prefer substantials in food as in everything else?"
18687� Daisy, are you afraid?
18687� Have you two known each other long?"
18687� How did you like that?"
18687� Is it � Oh, Daisy, I love you better than anything else in the world, except my duty; � Daisy, do you love me?"
18687� Macy, what_ is_ Christian grace � if you know?
18687� Must you go?"
18687� Suppose somebody were to attack you now, for instance; ought I not to fight for it?"
18687� The good God who has made us so rich, do you think He will leave you poor?
18687� Then, Daisy, will you make me understand it?
18687� Well, Daisy,_ after_ philosophy and mathematics have both had their turn; what then?
18687� What did that mean?
18687� Will you come again and see them?
18687� You would not like that life?"
18687� after the lights are out?"
18687� are you walked to death, my dear?
18687� do you two know each other?
18687� is this Daisy?"
18687� like that one just now going out of the gate?"
18687� or what is your estimate, Daisy?"
18687� or_ any_ admiration?
18687� who rides in it?"
18687� yes?
18687� you somebody?"
18687�"And the orders, Miss Randolph � what''orders''are you expecting?
18687�"Daisy, who''s head in mathematics, you or St. Clair?
18687�"She''ll bring you lots of queer things, wo n''t she?"
18687�"_ That_ did n''t come from China?"
18688But their lives are empty sometimes?"
18688Who spoke that?"
18688Why into my bosom?"
18688Why, Daisy,"said my father, passing over the last part of my speech,"how do you know all this?
18688About me?
18688About movements?
18688About what to do?
18688After all, why not, Daisy?
18688Against Beauregard?
18688Ah, but, do n''t you know that extremes meet?
18688All these old churches and relics then do not concern you?
18688Altogether?
18688Am I such a terror to you, Daisy?
18688Am I, papa?
18688An army surgeon,- how can he get away?
18688And Daisy?
18688And I should have liked his?
18688And are willing to have it there?
18688And can not you?
18688And do not share it at all?
18688And do not want to forgive him?
18688And do you expect there will be real work, as you call it? 18688 And do you not think that people are meant to enjoy this world, while they have it?"
18688And faith makes such a change in people''s feelings and lives?
18688And for those ignorant Moslems that live in the city now?
18688And he got your heart without your knowing it?
18688And how came you to think he thinks anything about it?
18688And how then, Daisy?
18688And if it is all undeserved?
18688And if you can not?
18688And if you take away the literal, where will the spiritual be?
18688And in view of it? 18688 And is this the reason why you will not look favourably on my suit?"
18688And is your judgment of the probable issue of the war, different from that I have expressed, Miss Randolph?
18688And it is my own living Daisy and not an image of her? 18688 And look here,- in what interest are you, Daisy?"
18688And may n''t I tell him you are there?
18688And not Marshall?
18688And pride?
18688And suppose Patterson does not do his duty?
18688And the question is, what I will do in the supposed circumstances? 18688 And what did you see?"
18688And what do you think of General Scott, Daisy? 18688 And what have ye been doing, my bonnie lady, since ye went away at eight o''clock o''the morn?"
18688And what is the reason that it is an argument? 18688 And what is the work to be done here?
18688And what of it?
18688And what then, dear, about the address?
18688And what then? 18688 And when, pray?"
18688And will they? 18688 And ye did n''t have your inheritance all in the future, I trust?"
18688And ye had a crumb of joy now and then?
18688And yet you will let your engagement stand, Daisy?
18688And you are travelling through Palestine too?
18688And you can go with us?
18688And you could not offer them any reward for going?
18688And you know what makes Southern wealth?
18688And you think the builder of the Dome of Florence had?
18688And you think_ that_ is in store for it yet?
18688And you were there?
18688And you will go to that city of trouble, and you will not let Christian know?
18688And you?
18688And_ I_ say, how may one escape from insignificance? 18688 Are n''t you my Daisy?"
18688Are there any sycamore trees here now?
18688Are there such things as masculine nerves?
18688Are they in need of care?
18688Are we not justified in endeavouring to escape from such a position?
18688Are you afraid now?
18688Are you afraid of me?
18688Are you apt to be self- willed?
18688Are you bent still upon living for other people, Daisy?
18688Are you better?
18688Are you comfortable?
18688Are you faint, my dear? 18688 Are you getting tired of hospital life?"
18688Are you going to desert me for that fellow?
18688Are you going to let that habit live? 18688 Are you going upon that old childish plan of yours?"
18688Are you happy, Daisy?
18688Are you quite well again?
18688Are you sure? 18688 Are you sure?"
18688Are you sure?
18688Are you tired out, dear?
18688Are you tired?
18688Are you vexed?
18688Are you well now, papa?
18688At home in America?
18688At the present time, Daisy,- I suppose, if you had your will, you would set at liberty at once all the people on the Magnolia plantations?
18688Ay?
18688Before we go to that, how has it fared with my little friend of old time, all these years?
18688Blue?
18688Business, Daisy?
18688But Herod?
18688But I think home is where we have lived,- is it not?
18688But about the provisions, Miss Randolph?
18688But are there any in immediate danger, do you think?
18688But are you going?
18688But are you not interested in a_ probable_ site, Daisy?
18688But at Bull Run rates-''sixty pieces of splendid cannon''taken, as Mr. Davis says, and how many killed and prisoners? 18688 But does he, easily, with other people?"
18688But had ye never a minister to counsel ye or to help ye, in those parts?
18688But if you were to go, would you not know it by this time?
18688But is it not prudent?
18688But is this a final settling of the question, Major Fairbairn?
18688But it is true?
18688But not about that?
18688But papa, in the mean time? 18688 But the people of the North are all accustomed to peaceful employments?"
18688But the question, child; do n''t you care about the question? 18688 But the road from Jericho to Jerusalem- there is no doubt of that?"
18688But there are others, Dr. Sandford? 18688 But we will go to Palestine, papa?"
18688But what have you done with your battery?
18688But what is it?
18688But what is it?
18688But what is the position of affairs?
18688But what_ is_ the matter, Daisy? 18688 But why did she secede?"
18688But why not take a sugar- plum, or a cigar, as well as other things- wine, or fruit, for instance?
18688But you agree with us as to the right of preserving our independence?
18688But you are going when I go?
18688But you are not going into the hospital?
18688But you said- you said-"What?
18688But you will not let her stay there, Grant?
18688But you, Daisy, how is it with you? 18688 But, Daisy, what do you mean?
18688But, Miss Randolph,said Mr. Marshall,"the care of infirm relatives, a father or a mother, can anything make that unworthy?"
18688But, mamma, when that is gone? 18688 But, mamma,- without funds?"
18688But, mamma? 18688 But, papa,-does the promise stand good, like Herod''s promise to that dancing woman?
18688But_ you_ are true?
18688By the way, why was not this letter written and sent sooner? 18688 By whom?"
18688By whom?
18688Ca n''t you say as much for him, Daisy?
18688Ca n''t you think of Jesus, and rest?
18688Ca n''t you trust the Lord?
18688Can I quite help it, Christian?
18688Can I?
18688Can a friend''s counsel be of any use?
18688Can not there?
18688Can not we be friends, Mr. Marshall? 18688 Can not you see that?"
18688Can not you trust?
18688Can there be a more significant word?
18688Can you lay your heart, just as it is, at Jesus''feet, and ask him to take it and make it right? 18688 Can you quite trust the Lord?"
18688Can you spare me, mamma? 18688 Can_ I_ trust her?"
18688Can_ you_ bear that, Daisy?
18688Casualties?
18688Christian, I could not let you know, for I was with my guardian- he is a sort of guardian for the time- and-"Well? 18688 Christian,"I began again after an interval,"were the troops that were sent over into Virginia just now, sent, do you suppose, to meet Beauregard?"
18688Christian,I said, seizing my time while my face was half hidden,"what would_ you_ do, supposing I should prove to be a very poor girl?"
18688Christian,I said,-"do n''t you see that it is best- my plan?"
18688Cigars? 18688 Come?"
18688Connecticut?
18688Daisy will not?
18688Daisy, do you expect to conform yourself and everybody to that pattern?
18688Daisy, how long have you been in Washington?
18688Daisy, must_ I_ tell_ you_, that there is One who can look it away? 18688 Daisy, what is this young man?"
18688Daisy,he began,"am I wrong?
18688Daisy,said papa presently, we had not changed our position,-"is Mr. Dinwiddie your friend, or mine?"
18688Daisy,said papa, tenderly, and looking at me now,-"you are strong?"
18688Daisy- is there anybody in the world that loves you as well as I do?
18688De Saussure or Marshall?
18688Did De Saussure propose to you yesterday?
18688Did he come up this way of the Beth- horons?
18688Did he? 18688 Did it come this way?"
18688Did nobody ever tell you you were beautiful?
18688Did not you, perhaps, bring about that desire in them, by your kind and possibly somewhat misjudged indulgences?
18688Did you believe it?
18688Did you believe it?
18688Did you doubt it, papa?
18688Did you ever see anything superior to it, Mr. Randolph? 18688 Did you get any clear understanding of what your mother might mean, one day at breakfast, when she was alluding to friends of yours in America?
18688Did you go to balls there?
18688Did you let him look at you, Daisy?
18688Did you meet in society here that winter a Miss St. Clair, who used to be once a schoolmate of mine? 18688 Did you tell him sharply?"
18688Did you use to see it in me?
18688Do I not know it already? 18688 Do I?
18688Do n''t they crowd upon everybody?
18688Do n''t you know that? 18688 Do n''t you know?"
18688Do n''t you mean to speak to anybody else?
18688Do n''t you remember, sir, his great works, and the timber he had to get from Lebanon?
18688Do n''t you think glory is a thing to live for?
18688Do n''t you think poets may be wrong as well as other people, Major Fairbairn?
18688Do n''t you want to see some of your old friends?
18688Do they never come now, in the way of their duty, to an impassable barrier of danger or difficulty, through which the same hand opens their path? 18688 Do we know?
18688Do ye mind,my old friend said,"how the flowers spoke to you and brought you messages, when Daisy was a child yet and first came to see me?"
18688Do you acknowledge that?
18688Do you always like people best that are the best, Daisy?
18688Do you dislike it, honestly, Miss Randolph?
18688Do you doubt it?
18688Do you expect the North will be able to stand against them?
18688Do you find it so? 18688 Do you have this sort of concert most evenings?"
18688Do you know what this is, Daisy?
18688Do you know where you are?
18688Do you know, for instance, that your skin is exquisite, in colour and texture?
18688Do you know, they all have a passion for command? 18688 Do you know,"said he,"such independence of all the exterior world,- of mortals, I mean,- is very tantalising to those disregarded mortals?"
18688Do you like Hugh Marshall better?
18688Do you like Hugh better? 18688 Do you like to see him very much, Daisy?"
18688Do you love Preston Gary?
18688Do you maintain your purpose?
18688Do you mean he is the favourite?
18688Do you mean that, Daisy?
18688Do you not incline to gratify her?
18688Do you now, papa?
18688Do you realise anything here, Daisy?
18688Do you really think that?
18688Do you see, you are to have a better nurse than you deserve?
18688Do you think Daisy has some special means of knowledge?
18688Do you think He loves one man less than another because his skin is darker?
18688Do you think I do not see all this beauty before us? 18688 Do you think it is always wrong to fight?"
18688Do you think,I asked, after a long silence,"that this mountain was really the scene of the Temptation?"
18688Do you understand it?
18688Do you understand me, Daisy? 18688 Do?
18688Doctor,said Preston when we came round to him,"wo n''t you send away Miss Randolph out of a place that she is not fit for?"
18688Does Mrs. Randolph give her consent to this proceeding?
18688Does he get angry?
18688Does he write to you?
18688Does he_ dare?_Mr. Thorold said in a different tone.
18688Does independence mean, the governing power? 18688 Does it lie in our route?"
18688Does n''t he?
18688Does n''t she look like it?
18688Does she know?
18688Does that man come to see you or me, Daisy?
18688Does that no tell you something?
18688Does the child think he is perfect?
18688Does this strange news make you happy?
18688Does your mother know?
18688Does_ she_ know I am here?
18688Dr. Sandford, do you think there is real danger to the country?
18688Dr. Sandford,said I,"will you take me with you and give me my lesson?
18688Dresses? 18688 Eh?"
18688Every one?
18688Explains what?
18688Fairbairn? 18688 Feverish tendency?"
18688Find them so?
18688For receptions at the White House? 18688 For the country, are you afraid?"
18688For which side are you so anxious?
18688For whom?
18688Free?
18688Friends? 18688 From West Point?"
18688Give him and yourself the_ chance_- of what, Daisy?
18688Grateful- for what?
18688Had he improved?
18688Has Dr. Sandford gone?
18688Has Johnston joined Beauregard?
18688Has anybody ventured to tell you, Miss Randolph, that you have changed within a few months?
18688Has it been too much for you?
18688Has the war got into New England? 18688 Have I lost you, Daisy?"
18688Have n''t you found_ that_ out yet?
18688Have they tried you very much, Daisy?
18688Have ye not had letters from him?
18688Have you a little of my feeling?
18688Have you been drilling troops to- day?
18688Have you brought any books, Daisy?
18688Have you satisfied your curiosity with Eugene Sue''s house?
18688Have you then no kindness for me?
18688Have you wanted to go to Palestine ever since you were ten years old?
18688Help it? 18688 Hey?
18688His aunt? 18688 His writing too?"
18688How about liking the gentlemen?
18688How am I changed?
18688How came she to do such an absurd thing as to let you come here? 18688 How came the report that you were her dearest friend?"
18688How can I get it to him?
18688How can I help it?
18688How can he?
18688How can it be helped, in the case of many a one?
18688How can it ever be made certain, papa? 18688 How can they help it?"
18688How can you answer?
18688How can you see it, Christian?
18688How come you to be so strong, and so young, and so- well, so unlike all this sort of thing? 18688 How comes it that he, as well as you, has kept silence?"
18688How did you like West Point?
18688How do I know?
18688How do you do now?
18688How do you do, Preston?
18688How do you do, this morning, Gary?
18688How do you do?
18688How do you estimate Mr. Leypoldt, then? 18688 How do you feel?"
18688How do you know anything about that, Daisy?
18688How do you know? 18688 How do you like Paris, my child?"
18688How do you like it?
18688How does he know better?
18688How else can one make up one''s mind? 18688 How has it come to pass then, my pet?
18688How has it hurt you?
18688How has it_ fared_ with me?
18688How have these weeks been with Miss Randolph? 18688 How have they escaped that?"
18688How have you learned so much about it, so much more than I?
18688How is all here?
18688How is it no matter?
18688How is it?
18688How long will you stay?
18688How long?
18688How many did they lose?
18688How many engaged? 18688 How many men do you suppose he has?"
18688How many, Daisy?
18688How much could you, do you suppose?
18688How shall I be glad as you are glad, Daisy?
18688How should he understand it, Daisy?
18688How so?
18688How soon are you going to send Daisy to Europe?
18688How soon do you expect to do that?
18688How soon?
18688How was that done? 18688 How was their freedom threatened?"
18688How will that help the matter?
18688How would it be, if the North succeeded, papa?
18688How''s he wounded?
18688How, papa?
18688Hugh, what do you say?
18688I have not offended, have I?
18688I heard it from Aunt Catherine yesterday- I should have found you before another day went over- Daisy, how long?
18688I know it will not if the North succeed,I said;"but how if the Southern army should get the better?"
18688I know they have; but what sent them home?
18688I mean, you are a true Northerner? 18688 I only asked, who it was to be, Daisy?
18688I suppose you would begin by setting them all free?
18688I think he does, papa-"You say, you''have talked''? 18688 I?"
18688I?
18688If it would do the cause any good, I would not care; but what good does it do? 18688 If we are patient now?
18688If we go to Paris, Daisy? 18688 If ye be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?"
18688If you please, how do you expect I am to live till then?
18688Imagine what?
18688In Washington? 18688 In public, mamma?"
18688In that? 18688 In what sense can a thing be''done for God?''
18688In what sense is Mr. Lincoln a usurper?
18688Indirectly?
18688Is Dr. Sandford really better?
18688Is McClellan the man we want?
18688Is anything the matter?
18688Is he in the_ Northern_ army, Daisy?
18688Is it De Saussure, then?
18688Is it Preston Gary?
18688Is it a general engagement?
18688Is it a possible thing,said mamma,"that a daughter of mine can be such a simpleton?
18688Is it for your sake, Daisy?
18688Is it getting to be such serious earnest?
18688Is it likely that Patterson will fight?
18688Is it needful?
18688Is it possible Daisy has turned politician?
18688Is it possible it is Daisy?
18688Is it they?
18688Is it true, that a battle has been won by McDowell?
18688Is it true?
18688Is my reputation in danger, to be riding with you?
18688Is n''t it a wonder, that I live, and that I shall live for ever?
18688Is n''t it somebody you know?
18688Is n''t now a good time?
18688Is not Dr. Sandford attending to our affairs for us, mamma?
18688Is not my word sufficient?
18688Is she alive?
18688Is that Daisy?
18688Is that all your boasted religion is good for?
18688Is that the question?
18688Is that_ all_ you think good in the news?
18688Is the doctor jealous of you, Daisy?
18688Is there any question?
18688Is there anybody engaged in this struggle, Daisy, that you are concerned for?
18688Is this to be taken as a specimen of Palestine roads, Daisy?
18688It stands good, papa? 18688 It will do, wo n''t it?"
18688It would not cost more to go to Palestine, would it, papa, than to live as we are doing now?
18688Mamma, what difference can that possibly make?
18688Mamma,I said,"do n''t you think it is growing chill?"
18688Mamma- why do you speak so? 18688 Mamma?
18688Many killed?
18688Matter?
18688May I ask, what can be the explanation of your words? 18688 May I influence you in something else?"
18688Me? 18688 Me?
18688Melbourne?
18688Miss Cardigan,I said at length,"what is Christian''s address in Washington?"
18688More than I have?
18688More?
18688Mr. Marshall and Mr. De Saussure, do you mean?
18688Must not every woman wish for peace?
18688Must you know, before you tell me?
18688My Daisy- he said,-"what do you want of me?"
18688My dear child, is there not a little fanaticism there?
18688My dear child, what do you want of those things?
18688My dear, you would not marry without your parents''consent?
18688My dear,said Miss Yates, touching my shoulder,"had n''t you better give up for to- night?
18688No fire in her?
18688No, ma''am; but if I could get a good safe friend to go with me?
18688No, mamma, but- what do you mean by''in public''?
18688No, papa, you have not lost; you can not; I am not changed, papa, do you not see that I am not changed? 18688 No, papa; but if the little world has such effects what must the great one do?"
18688Nobody else, Daisy?
18688Not a Southerner?
18688Not if his life is insignificant?
18688Not in itself,I said;"but suppose a man''s duty calls him away?
18688Not to please somebody he wishes to please?
18688Not when you are training soldiers?
18688Not-?
18688Nothing more?
18688Now, Miss Randolph, what is it?
18688Now,said he,"are you fixed in the plan of devoting yourself to the care of this ungracious cousin?"
18688Oh, Major,said I,"what is the news?"
18688Only,- what would you think of a lady who sat down regularly to eat sugar- plums three or four times a day and the last thing before going to bed? 18688 Out of the way of fighting, do you mean?
18688Out of the way of what, Daisy?
18688Out of the way of what?
18688Papa, do n''t you think that, having died for them, He holds them precious?
18688Papa, do n''t you think the Lord Jesus loves the people for whom He died?
18688Papa, do you see?
18688Papa, may I?
18688Papa, only one thing more,- if you are willing, that we should sometimes write to each other?
18688Papa, what do you think will?
18688Papa,I asked,"how much did mamma know- I mean- how much did she hear about me that was true?"
18688Papa,I began,"may I ask you a few questions, the better to come at what I want?"
18688Papa,said I,"do n''t you think it must be very strong reasons that can justify so dreadful a thing as a war?"
18688Papa,- do you?
18688Papa- I think- Do n''t you think, Mr. Marshall has the most principle?
18688Papa- what did our Lord do?
18688Papa-"Has he ever told you his thoughts?
18688Papa? 18688 Patient, and wait?"
18688Permit me to ask first, Are your convictions strong and clear, that it is your duty to go home and enter the war for the South?
18688Pomegranates are not ripe now, are they?
18688Pray why?
18688Pray, what for? 18688 Pray, what little world have you seen?"
18688Pray, what? 18688 Praying?"
18688Pretty happy?
18688Pride? 18688 Promises?"
18688Really?
18688Remembered? 18688 Rides and walks- how many rides and walks have you taken, Daisy, these forlorn weeks, with officers of the Northern army?
18688Right?
18688Safe from what?
18688Shall we go? 18688 Should he?"
18688Signor Piacevoli- what do you think of him?
18688So you knew about it?
18688Stay here, in this hotel?
18688Studying it all, Daisy?
18688Suppose he should be angry about it?
18688Suppose the one goes to the battlefield for his own glory, and the other stays at home for his own ease?
18688Suppose your father and mother- suppose they are obdurate, Daisy, and will not have me, being a Northern man and in the Government service?
18688Tell her, Grant, what is she now?
18688That is n''t much, papa; all that is in Murray; but now may I read you about Solomon''s floats of timber, while you are finishing that pomegranate?
18688That is to tell me we must turn homeward?
18688That old cry,''Where is the Lord God of Elijah?'' 18688 That soldier?
18688That this world is only the portal to glory? 18688 That was all?"
18688The call for fortitude?
18688The major? 18688 The same sky, Daisy?
18688The truth?
18688The very mention of them- do you know what it does?
18688The worthiest object of life?
18688Then first, what is it you think of most, in looking over from this place to Jerusalem?
18688Then he comes here to see you?
18688Then it is not over?
18688Then it refers to their return from captivity, does it not?
18688Then it was for you and me, papa?
18688Then papa- should we?
18688Then the wrong done them was that they were out- voted?
18688Then there will be a battle?
18688Then who is so bitterly oppressed just now, Miss Randolph?
18688Then you do not think Beauregard will come and take Washington?
18688Then you think they are as brave as the South? 18688 Then you think-my dear, you augur ill of your father''s and mother''s opinion of your engagement?"
18688Then you wrote?
18688Then your feelings continue all with the Northern men, Daisy?
18688Then, if they succeed, what will be the state of things between them and the North?
18688Then, papa, add that one word about letters, will you?
18688Then, papa, what will He say to us, for keeping those whom He loves and died for, at arms''length or under our feet? 18688 Then, unless your minds are known to each other, will there not be danger of mistaken action, on the one part or on the other?"
18688There can be nothing coming from our Magnolia estates- and our Virginia property is a mere battle ground, you know; and what have we to live upon?
18688There is no sugar cane here now?
18688There must have been a great many of those old Christians living here once?
18688There was a bit of a smile upon your mouth just now- before I spoke;- what were you thinking of?
18688There''s crumbs to be gotten even now from that feast; ye did n''t go starving, my bairn?
18688These war- shows make you thoughtful?
18688They would disregard your views, or you would disregard theirs,- which?
18688Thought what?
18688Till I say so? 18688 To be misled by her feelings?"
18688To do what?
18688To get you away from me?
18688To make him run? 18688 To speak to me?
18688To stay?
18688To whose being engaged, papa?
18688To- night?
18688True to what? 18688 Try what, Mr. De Saussure?"
18688Was Preston there then?
18688Weight with me? 18688 Well, Christian?"
18688Well, Daisy,said papa,"are you enjoying yet?"
18688Well, how do you like it, Miss Randolph?
18688Well, now you know it is not; and again I come back to my question,- Which is it to be?
18688Well, papa,- do n''t you?
18688Well, so am I,papa answered;"but what had you to do with sending them home?"
18688Well, what are you pondering?
18688Well, what, love?
18688Well, why not?
18688Well,said papa, rather growlingly,"what then?"
18688Well,- what good will that do them?
18688Well- if I did it for love of you?
18688Well? 18688 Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?3- said he tenderly, stroking my hair,what is it?
18688Were we?
18688Were you in Washington the winter of''61?
18688Were you long at West Point?
18688What about you?
18688What are you doing there?
18688What are you doing up there?
18688What are you questioning, Miss Daisy?
18688What are you talking of?
18688What are_ you_ on, Christian?
18688What better time can we ever have, papa?
18688What can I do for you?
18688What can I do?
18688What can not be, if you please?
18688What can you mean, Miss Randolph?
18688What chance is there, lying here; and only a few minutes at that?
18688What choice have you made, then? 18688 What connection is there between cigars and sugar- plums?"
18688What could have been the foundation of that story?
18688What could you do, child? 18688 What did you expect to do then, Daisy, if I was never to be told?"
18688What did you say to him?
18688What did_ you_ do, Daisy?
18688What do you fear, Daisy?
18688What do you know of places where the heart_ was?_said papa, looking at me curiously.
18688What do you mean by fanaticism, mamma?
18688What do you mean to do, mamma?
18688What do you mean, Daisy?
18688What do you mean, Preston?
18688What do you mean?
18688What do you say, Miss Randolph?
18688What do you think about it?
18688What do you think of that, Daisy? 18688 What do you think of your ward?"
18688What do you think to do with yourself to- day, now?
18688What do you think, Grant?
18688What do you want of me, Daisy?
18688What do_ you_ mean? 18688 What do_ you_ think is right?"
18688What does Miss Randolph say?
18688What does it mean, then?
18688What does it tell me?
18688What does my other friend here think about it?
18688What does she sing?
18688What extremes?
18688What for? 18688 What has Patterson been doing all this while?"
18688What has brought him here?
18688What has brought_ you_ here, Preston?
18688What has changed you so?
18688What have you come here for?
18688What if they chose a Southern husband for you, and laid their commands in his favour?
18688What is General Patterson doing?
18688What is a figure?
18688What is all this about De Saussure and Marshall?
18688What is doing at home, Dinwiddie?
18688What is formed, and what is unformed?
18688What is it you can not undo, little Daisy?
18688What is it you can not undo? 18688 What is it, Daisy?
18688What is it, Daisy?
18688What is it, Ransom?
18688What is it?
18688What is it?
18688What is she thinking of?
18688What is that to you? 18688 What is that?
18688What is that?
18688What is the difficulty, Daisy?
18688What is the matter with you, Daisy?
18688What is the matter with you, Daisy?
18688What is the matter, Daisy?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the source of your pleasure just now, Daisy? 18688 What is the use of having friends?"
18688What is to become of us in the mean time, mamma?
18688What is yours? 18688 What is''home,''Miss Daisy?"
18688What made you do it, then?
18688What makes you ask?
18688What matters, papa?
18688What mischief have you done?
18688What must the system be where such things are possible? 18688 What must_ I_ do?"
18688What news, major?
18688What next?
18688What o''clock is it?
18688What place is that? 18688 What put that argument into your mouth?"
18688What question, Major Fairbairn?
18688What raised the anger?
18688What rig?
18688What risk?
18688What route will you take, when we get to land?
18688What shall I do?
18688What shall we do now, Daisy?
18688What side are you on, Daisy?
18688What sort of a person is she?
18688What sort of news?
18688What then, Daisy, my friend?
18688What then, Miss Randolph?
18688What then, my dear? 18688 What then?
18688What then? 18688 What then?"
18688What then?
18688What thing?
18688What truth? 18688 What two?"
18688What was Peter''s vision, besides the stars?
18688What was it, Daisy?
18688What was the''self- will''about, Daisy?
18688What were the voices? 18688 What were you doing just now,"said he savagely,"by that soldier''s bedside?"
18688What will it be to me?
18688What will their word be?
18688What will you do when you have one of those quiet people for your husband?
18688What will you do?
18688What would you do for them, Daisy?
18688What would you do?
18688What wrong was done her?
18688What''work''are you going to do?
18688What, Daisy?
18688What, my pet?
18688What, to see the meeting of Congress? 18688 What?
18688What?
18688What?
18688What?
18688What_ has_ come over you?
18688What_ has_ it done to me?
18688When did Faustina come here?
18688When did you see him?
18688When does the_ Persia_ go?
18688When will_ that_ be?
18688When, and where?
18688When, then, will you tell them?
18688When?
18688Where are my people, doctor?
18688Where are we to stop to- night, Daisy? 18688 Where are you going now?"
18688Where did you learn so much about it?
18688Where is Aunt Randolph?
18688Where is mamma?
18688Where then?
18688Where was this?
18688Where? 18688 Where?"
18688Which of them must I like a little more than very well, Daisy?
18688Which of these young friends of ours do you like the best, Daisy?
18688Which- of what, mamma?
18688Who does know?
18688Who has been Daisy''s trumpeter?
18688Who has tried, then?
18688Who is Lyon, De Saussure?
18688Who is Lyon?
18688Who is estimating you, in a corner at home?
18688Who is he?
18688Who is it this time, Daisy?
18688Who is it to be, Daisy?
18688Who is it, then?
18688Who is to be married?
18688Who on our side?
18688Who says it?
18688Who told you all this, papa?
18688Who told you?
18688Who was Eugene Sue?
18688Who?
18688Who_ is_ Major Fairbairn?
18688Why are they not true, Miss Randolph?
18688Why did you never tell me before, Daisy?
18688Why did you not say so before?
18688Why do they not? 18688 Why do you ask me?"
18688Why do you ask?
18688Why do you hope so, Major Fairbairn?
18688Why do you tell me that?
18688Why is it absurd?
18688Why not let yourself do it? 18688 Why not live for this world, while you are in it, Daisy?"
18688Why not to a woman, for the same reason?
18688Why not, little one?
18688Why not, papa?
18688Why not? 18688 Why not?"
18688Why not?
18688Why not?
18688Why not?
18688Why should I, Miss Cardigan? 18688 Why should I?"
18688Why should it make any one melancholy?
18688Why should n''t he be wounded, when his betters are? 18688 Why should we think so?
18688Why so? 18688 Why were you afraid?"
18688Why''nothing more''?
18688Why, Daisy,said papa, lifting my face again for scrutiny,-"how do you know?
18688Why, Daisy?
18688Why, Miss Cardigan,said I, smiling,"do you think the, world will hate me for such a thing?"
18688Why, do you care for him?
18688Why, how can you ask?
18688Why, mamma?
18688Why, more than the ruins?
18688Why, you ai n''t going to give out, are you?
18688Why,said Ransom, hotly,"what do you think of armies upon the soil of Virginia?
18688Why? 18688 Why?"
18688Why?
18688Why?
18688Will nothing but a miracle do, Miss Daisy?
18688Will that do?
18688Will the doctor come after you?
18688Will they give up, you mean? 18688 Will we not?"
18688Will you do it for me, Dr. Sandford? 18688 Will you excuse me?
18688Will you go and lie down now, my lamb?
18688Will you go, if I get you an invitation?
18688Will you try, Daisy?
18688Will you write to let him know? 18688 Wo n''t they come nearer to us?"
18688Would n''t you like to see the house of Eugene Sue?
18688Would n''t you wish it, papa, for yourself and me, if we were two of them? 18688 Would she like to see me, do you think?"
18688Would that? 18688 Would you?
18688Would your daughter say so?
18688Would''st thou go forth to bless? 18688 Yes, I know; but the North- will they take this as a settlement of the question?"
18688Yes, but how good is it, Major Fairbairn?
18688Yet you ask me for the thought?
18688You are better?
18688You are fatigued, Miss Randolph?
18688You are n''t a rebel in disguise?
18688You are not glad to see me?
18688You are not going?
18688You are not unwilling, papa?
18688You are not waiting for Preston, are you? 18688 You are sure?"
18688You are_ afraid!_ Then the news means nothing to you; nothing good, I mean?
18688You are_ living_ in Palestine?
18688You do not believe in fighting, under any circumstances?
18688You do not feel well to- night, Grant?
18688You do not mean ever to come home?
18688You do not mean that such a fate can overtake the whole South?
18688You do not seem very glad of it?
18688You do not wish to see anything by the way?
18688You do not?
18688You have never heard from your American friend?
18688You have not forgotten your Lord, Daisy?
18688You have not heard Mr. Lincoln talk, have you?
18688You know what makes my father and mother rich?
18688You mean, show myself in a fine dress and in a fine assembly, papa?
18688You mean- what? 18688 You remember our words one day about insignificant lives?"
18688You see who has come to look after you?
18688You think with them, that he ought to go?
18688You think, we can not understand it?
18688You walk with other people, do n''t you?
18688You want me to save you the trouble?
18688You will condescend to explain so extraordinary a statement?
18688You will not be the owner of them?
18688You will tell them, Daisy?
18688You would know better how to sing, to wit?
18688You would not waste it upon me, if you thought I would scorn it?
18688Your cousin Gary?
18688Your cousin, Mr. Gary, whom we saw last summer;- on which side is he?
18688Your cousin, do you mean?
18688Your feeling about himself?
18688Your parents, Daisy, would not desire these Northern associations for you; would they?
18688Yours, Daisy?
18688_ Calm?_ mamma,I said, laughing.
18688_ He_ did not?
18688_ His_ hospital?
18688_ I_ go to that den of thieves? 18688 _ Is_ it thoughts, Daisy?"
18688_ Very_ careful?
18688- Daisy, my dear, what is the matter?"
18688- Have you ever, no you never have, seen much of sickness and death, and that?"
18688- Will you take mine?"
18688- and Falling Waters, and so on?"
18688- and Great Bethel?
18688- and at the close of our reading he asked again in a perplexed manner,"You do not let it trouble you, Daisy?"
18688- and for mamma and Ransom, if they were two more?"
18688- and his Jericho?"
18688- and meanwhile do my blessed work?
18688- anyhow?"
18688- but have_ I_ brought those tears into your eyes?"
18688- can you tell?"
18688- dear friends, and nothing more?"
18688- either yours or theirs?"
18688- invading armies, come to take what they like?
18688- just for myself?
18688- my Daisy?"
18688- or military reviews?
18688- or parades, or encampments?
18688- or shall I?"
18688- who?"
18688- wine?
18688- you remember?"
18688-""Do you think,"she broke out with violence,"that this war is going to last for ever?
18688-""If I could be content to have your faith in secret, or to wait to know if I might have it at all?
18688-""Well?"
18688-""What, papa?"
18688-_ here?_ Who, Dr.
18688About Solomon''s temple,- there is nothing of it left now, I suppose?"
18688After those hundred and fifty years when there were no Jews allowed here, who was to remember the spot of the Sepulchre?
18688And Magnolia?
18688And by the by- what_ are_ you going to do, when school closes and you are set free?"
18688And do n''t you want to see the President?"
18688And is that, following Christ?
18688And then as I hesitated,-"For one of those two?"
18688And what chance should I have, in the street?
18688And what if God willed I should be thus poor?
18688And what more than usual this afternoon?"
18688And what then?
18688And when they enter into the joy of their Lord, will they care what His service has cost them?"
18688And who is this person?"
18688Are n''t you mine?"
18688Are not mountains always witnesses for God?
18688Are you afraid?
18688Are you cased in proof armour?
18688Are you glad?"
18688Are you going farther?"
18688Are you going to claim the promise?"
18688Are you going to put me through a course of theology, Daisy?"
18688Are you in a hurry to go back to school?"
18688Are you tired of Washington, Daisy?"
18688At the review I knew I had little reason to hope for what I wanted; at the Capitol- after all, what chance there?
18688But I have not misunderstood you, Daisy?
18688But allow me to ask you just in passing, what do you think of our young English friend?"
18688But did you not know that you were beautiful?"
18688But do most people''s lives signify anything, except to some fond judgment of that sort?"
18688But do you think it was for all the world, or only for a part of them?"
18688But how was it, so far away, my bairn?
18688But if the power that holds us up is perfect,- what should hinder our having a fulness of that?
18688But pardon me,- have_ you_ seen it?"
18688But suppose it were not,- suppose that the joy of my life were gone, passed over to another; who had done it?
18688But suppose they were inferior,- since Christ died for them, does He not love them?"
18688But then-"What, Miss Cardigan?"
18688But what else, Daisy?
18688But what had I just been asking, but that I might carry messages?
18688But what to sing?
18688But what would you do, Daisy?"
18688But when all was done, and the ward was quiet, I stood at the foot of the dying man''s bed, thinking, what could I do more for him?
18688But which do you like best, of the two?
18688But you knew once that a Northern Blue- coat had been pierced by the fire of your eyes?"
18688But you like him, do n''t you?
18688But you think so?"
18688But, Daisy, what will your father and mother say to you?"
18688But, Mr. Dinwiddie, have you got a tent?"
18688But- your father and mother, my dear?"
18688By the way, how long_ have_ you been in Washington, Daisy?"
18688By the way, why do you not like dancing?"
18688By what title does he dare shut up Southern ports and send his cut- throats upon Southern soil?"
18688By whose will was my life stripped?
18688Ca n''t you leave the matter to him?"
18688Can it be possible?"
18688Can not you bear that?"
18688Can they be?"
18688Can you trust Jesus to cure you?
18688Can you trust the Pilot still?"
18688Christian held my hand very fast, and after a few minutes began again-"Does he know you are angry, Daisy?"
18688Could Daisy do that?
18688Could I be silent?
18688Could I do it?
18688Could I help it?
18688Could I hide the fact then?
18688Could I not trust Him-?
18688Could I not wait a while?
18688Could I say that both might not be mistaken?
18688Could I tell them that my heart was with the Northern army; and how it went out after every gleam of one particular sabre?
18688Could I?
18688Could intelligence be awake, in that oppressed condition of the bodily powers?
18688Daisy, have you ever seen the President before?"
18688Daisy, have you well considered this matter?"
18688Daisy, my pet, where have you been?"
18688Daisy, would it be honouring them, to let them not know?"
18688De Saussure, what is_ your_ estimate of life''s objects?
18688Did I not say what I was thinking of?
18688Did he never give it to you?"
18688Did mamma know about Mr. Thorold?
18688Did they never take hold on ye, Daisy?"
18688Did you come alone?"
18688Did you never find that they do, in your own experience?"
18688Did you think, Daisy, he had forgotten you?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Do n''t you know that?
18688Do n''t you see?"
18688Do n''t you think they can get through it without me?
18688Do n''t you think you have duties, lassie?
18688Do n''t you want to go, Daisy?
18688Do n''t you want to see him again?"
18688Do these differences of feeling or opinion touch action?
18688Do you care very much for that?"
18688Do you carry your principles so far, Daisy, that you mean you would not let anybody approach you who is not of your way of thinking?"
18688Do you know them yourself, Daisy?"
18688Do you know what you are talking of, Daisy?"
18688Do you know where you are now?"
18688Do you like Hugh better?"
18688Do you not think it is reasonable that I should know?"
18688Do you remember whose daughter you are?
18688Do you say go, Daisy?"
18688Do you see that round hole over your head?"
18688Do you think I would have brought you into danger?"
18688Do you think his trust was well placed?"
18688Do you think it, Daisy?"
18688Do you wish me to go and fight the North, as your mother says I ought?"
18688Do you?"
18688Does every minority, as such, lose its independence?"
18688Does that bring the colour back?"
18688Dull?"
18688Eug � ne Sue, is it, that we are going to see?"
18688Even if the grounds of my happiness were precarious, I had trusted God all my life with all I cared for; could I not trust Him still?
18688For some other?"
18688For what had I rejected them all?
18688Forgive me, wo n''t you?"
18688Grant, you are not going to permit such a thing?"
18688Had Christian no soldiers under him?
18688Had I changed so much?
18688Had I done wrong, made any unconscious mistake neglected any duty, that this trouble had come upon me?
18688Had my wish been cowardly and political?
18688Had papa come to that?
18688Have I accomplished what I said at the beginning I would try to do,- follow out the present truth of my life to the possible glory?
18688Have n''t you written to him?"
18688Have you been out into the great world already?"
18688Have you heard nothing from him, Daisy, since you came to Switzerland?"
18688He folded me close again and kissed me over and over, and then whispered,-"Who is it, Daisy?"
18688He shook my hand heartily, which he had not yet let go, laughing, and asked where we were going?
18688Hey, Daisy?"
18688Hey?
18688How can you be so quiet?
18688How can you keep so quiet?
18688How can you know what is the truth?"
18688How could I answer her?
18688How could I please Him who had chosen me to be a soldier, with my heart set on my own pleasure, and busy with my own fears?
18688How could I speak anything of what had been in my mind to be said?
18688How could I tell, Miss Cardigan?"
18688How did it result?"
18688How do you do, Mrs. Sandford?
18688How do you feel about that?"
18688How else could I live at all as a believing and obedient child of God?
18688How else could I live, with the struggle before me?
18688How if the war went for the North?
18688How is it, Daisy?
18688How is it, Daisy?"
18688How is it?"
18688How long will you stay in Washington?
18688How may it be better?
18688How should I get them in Switzerland?
18688How soon can you both be ready?"
18688How soon, mother, will the fever be there?"
18688I am not trying to keep the law, to buy my life; but I am_ keeping_ the law, because Christ has given me life- do you see, papa?
18688I began to wonder, as we were sailing towards home in the end of the day, what work I had to do in this new and strange place; why was I here?
18688I believe the blushes came then, and they all laughed at me; but Dr. Sandford asked me very kindly if I was too tired to see the review that day?
18688I cried;"what are you saying?
18688I felt more and more sure as he drew nearer, if that can be when I had been sure all along; but, would he know me?
18688I got this for you- will you scorn it, or value it?"
18688I knew Dr. Sandford would be here by and by; how should I bear it?
18688I knew she could not; but then, what did she mean?
18688I laughed and asked her, what was the change in me?
18688I looked, and as I looked, these words came up in my mind-"Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?"
18688I said;-"before my father and mother come home?"
18688I say, what does one signify?"
18688I suppose you do n''t dress so at home, do you?
18688I suppose, or am I not to suppose, that then you will consider your work done?"
18688I will wait, till-""Till Christian does it?"
18688I wonder how he comes to be in Washington?"
18688If I may do this work, shall I complain, because I have not the helper I wanted; when God is my helper?
18688If his foe had disappeared from before him, must he not follow on this way, where( I thought) men were so imperatively needed?
18688If the arms of those-_ what_ are they?
18688If this matter were not in the way, would you have any kindness for me, Daisy?
18688In that voice?
18688Indeed rather, what had I not gained?
18688Is Major Fairbairn South or North?
18688Is he afraid of me?"
18688Is he badly off?"
18688Is it disagreeable to you?"
18688Is it not so, Daisy?"
18688Is it not so?"
18688Is it the very same Daisy?"
18688Is it your rule of supposed duty, that a man must be a Christian after your sort, to obtain your favour?"
18688Is n''t it a wonder, that the Prince of Heaven came down to open the way and to show it to us?
18688Is n''t it hot?"
18688Is n''t it true?
18688Is n''t that promise good for all we want to ask?"
18688Is she right in that?"
18688Is that what they are gone for?"
18688Is that what you mean?"
18688Is that your idea of freedom?"
18688Is that your thought?"
18688Is that your way of being a proper soldier''s wife?
18688Is this all that separates us?"
18688Is your father the only one to be in your confidence?
18688It is that fellow Thorold, is n''t it?"
18688It seems to me that you do not look upon matters at home with just the eye that the rest of us have for them?"
18688It''s all true; but what can you do?"
18688Johnston reinforced Beauregard?
18688Lee?"
18688Let my choice be known?
18688Look- do you say maroon or dark purple for this bit of grounding?
18688Look- look yonder- do you see that glimmer?
18688Marshall?"
18688Marshall?"
18688May I not be that?"
18688May it not be, that they know best?"
18688Men, is there news?"
18688Miss Cardigan exclaimed,-"is it you?
18688Mounted, my companion asked me, where should we go?
18688Mrs. Sandford and he, were going to West Point- and so-""West Point did you good?"
18688Mrs. Sandford looked somewhat startled and asked who the friend might be?
18688Must hopes always be twin with such fears?
18688Must joy take such close hold on sorrow?
18688Must not open truth be the best way always?
18688My darling, you look pale- what is it for?"
18688My dear Daisy, you are in pain; those were not tears of joy; what did that chant say to your sensibilities?
18688My dear, are you faint?
18688My father?
18688My mother especially; what would she say to Daisy loving an officer in the Northern army?
18688Nevertheless the cold chill of a"What if?"
18688No, but to one whose beauty was so brilliant and whose hand was so attainable?
18688None in words; I fancied that the look of the face bore witness to some aroused attention; might it be more?
18688Not in_ any_ circumstances?"
18688Not let it trouble me?
18688Not ready for orders, Daisy?"
18688Not their being small,- or common?"
18688Now if you would only sing something else- Do n''t you know anything from Norma, or II Trovatore?"
18688Now?
18688Once he interrupted me to say,"Daisy, how do you take this that I have been telling you?"
18688Or was it the speech of the past?
18688Or_ are_ you an exception?
18688Ought I to let them know it?"
18688Our only faithful kind friend; how could I?
18688Papa smiled at me?
18688Papa was watching me, though I did not know it, and presently said very gently,-"What is it, Daisy?"
18688Papa, do n''t you enjoy it?"
18688Papa, what was that for?"
18688Pour la patrie,- does anything go before that in your mind?
18688Pray, Major Fairbairn, have the officers of the army the reputation of making good husbands and heads of families?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Remembering this, I put my hand in his and said a simple-"How do you do?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Shall we like?
18688She took up one of my hands, looked at it, kissed it, and as she let it drop asked carelessly,-"What has become of Preston now?"
18688So many ladies walk on Pennsylvania avenue; why should his eye pick me out?
18688So what was I crying about?
18688So what was I to do?
18688So you know his family?
18688Speak, wo n''t you,-a good word for me?"
18688Still Miss Cardigan had reason; and when she repeated,"You will tell them at once?"
18688Still holding me fast, he lifted my face a little and smiling asked me, what Daisy had to say to him?
18688Suppose the whole is twice as large as it used to be?"
18688The doctor asked why?
18688The doctor walked about the room a while, talking of indifferent things; and then said suddenly,-"Do you remember old Molly Skelton?"
18688The first question is, How came we both here?"
18688The least movement now on my part might bring it to the light; what if it came?
18688The next thing, two hands were on my shoulders and a voice whispered in my ear a question,"what was the matter?".
18688The question immediately pressed itself upon our attention, where would we go?
18688Then came the question,- Daisy, what are you going to say to him, when you see him?
18688Then he has n''t lost a leg or an arm, I suppose?
18688Then if you_ liked_ somebody who was not that sort of a Christian, Daisy, you would not refuse to marry him?"
18688Then it was for my old June, and for Maria and Darry and Pete and Margaret, and all the rest of our people at Magnolia?"
18688Then keeping me in his arms and bending a brilliant inquisitive look on my face, he asked me,"Daisy- is this my Daisy, as I left her?"
18688Then suddenly I asked if he had had his breakfast?
18688Then you are not afraid lest the rebels should take Washington and confiscate the whole of us?"
18688Then you do not bid me go?"
18688Then, how long might it be, before these two armies would be ready to try another, a third tussle together?
18688Then, probably, Patterson had done no fighting?
18688This is Elisha''s fountain, is n''t it?"
18688Thursday, does your school- work end?
18688To Lausanne, is it?"
18688Very likely there was somebody to miss and mourn him; somebody at home; his mother- a young wife, perhaps-"Is Daisy tired already?"
18688Was Molly the better in anything beyond her flowers?
18688Was Mr. Thorold under my management?
18688Was her arm long enough, or her eye enough far- seeing?
18688Was it hope, or mockery?
18688Was it much of an affair?"
18688Was it only I?
18688Was it true, that Mr. Thorold, though no Christian, was following a rule of action more noble and good than I, who made such professions?
18688Was it wonderful?
18688Was it?
18688Was that it?"
18688Was there another struggle where Johnston''s forces were opposed by General Patterson?
18688Well, not being a dancing girl, what is your petition?
18688Well?"
18688Well?"
18688Were n''t you tempted?"
18688What are the walls of stone and mortar to that?
18688What are you made of?"
18688What are you talking about?"
18688What banished it, Daisy?"
18688What can equal their grace and symmetry?"
18688What chance then for Christian and me?
18688What could I do?
18688What could I say, that I had not said?
18688What could I say?
18688What could tempt me?"
18688What course did your talk take?"
18688What do you mean by patience?
18688What do you mean, Daisy?
18688What do you think of Fairfax Court- house?
18688What do you think of Southern forts garrisoned by Northern troops, and Southern cities in blockade?
18688What do you think your mother would say to it?"
18688What do you want with me?"
18688What do you wish me to do?"
18688What does Miss Randolph say?"
18688What had I lost, that I had not been without until only twelve hours before?
18688What had I lost?
18688What had I said?
18688What had eleven years wrought for her?
18688What had they all come to?
18688What has become of it?"
18688What has got a grip of your heart then, Daisy?"

18688Yet that last word of his might be true; what if it were?
18688You are never violent; do you feel as Mrs. Randolph does about it?
18688You are not afraid, Daisy, that you look at me so?
18688You are not spoiled a bit, my bairn?"
18688You are not_ afraid?_""Oh, no.
18688You can bear the truth, can not you?"

18688and what will He say to us for keeping them out of the good He died to give them?"
18688and whom did you come with?
18688and would Mr. Thorold be willing to stay permanently where inaction would be his portion?
18688are you sure?
18688do you know what that is, papa?"
18688has she not?"
18688have we stolen it?"
18688he asked me?

18688or how could I reach him?
18688or what does he mean?"
18688or what will it be when it comes?
18688said Mr. Thorold, his eyes making a brilliant commentary on my words;-"Did he carry you away from West Point for any such reason?
18688said my father, folding me in his arms-"what dangers have you discovered, Daisy?"
18688said my father; and"What, Ransom?"
18688said she laughing-"does it dismay you?"
18688said the doctor,"do n''t you know that your welfare is very dear to me?"
18688she said laughing,"what is the matter?
18688she said, lifting my chin with her forefinger and looking into my face,-"is n''t it true?

18688while you were out?
18688whose possible encomiums have I hit in your memory, that your cheeks are taking up the matter with such a delicious rose colour?"
18688you are- what is the matter?
