Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rise and Progress of the Bloody Outbreak at Harper´s Ferry Fellow-Citizen: - The community was thrown into consternation, on the 17th instant, by the appalling intelligence that a formidable outbreak, headed by Northern abolitionists, had broken out at Harper´s Ferry, in Virginia, with the avowed object of arousing the colored population of the South to take up arms against their masters. It resulted in the sacrifice of valuable lives, and the destruction of private and public property; but it failed of success, and most of those who actively participated in it, were slain, or taken prisoners. Had the expectations of its leaders been fulfilled, a portion of the Southern States would now be under the scourge of a hideous uprising of brutality and ignorance against civilization, involving fearful deeds of blood, rapine and outrage, which it sickens the imagination to dwell upon. Short-lived, and contracted in locality, as the Harper´s Ferry rebellion was, such deep and enduring results, for good or evil, cannot fail to spring from it, that it is essential for every conservative citizen to understand its true import.
