Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vindex on the Liability of the Abolitionists to Criminal Punishment, and on the Duty of the Non-Slave-Holding States to Suppress Their Efforts The following pages are given to the public, under an impression of the great good their dissemination is likely to produce among the American People. The Numbers originally appeared in the "Charleston Courier," over the signature of "Vindex;" and are thrown into their present shape, by the consent of the Author - a gentleman of high legal attainments - who yielded to the solicitation of friends that deemed them of sufficient importance to occupy a more enduring form than is found in the columns of a Daily Paper. The subjects discussed are such, as have not hitherto occupied the consideration of our brethren of the non-slave-holding States; perhaps for the plain reason, that the issues involved, did not immediately concern them; and the danger arising to Southern Institutions from the efforts of the Abolitionists, seemed to be, only of possible and remote consequence. A crisis, however, has arisen, when it becomes necessary to speak out in vindicution of the honour and sovereignty of the Slave-holding States, and to Warn those disposed to Tamper with the rights of property, secured to them by the Federal Constitution, that they may not do so with impunity, nor escape the punishment due to to their wickedness, by claiming to be citizens of another State. The principles insisted on are such, as becomes every Southern man to know, and which, if carried into practice, will put at nought the mischievous designs of our enemies; endear the connexion which binds us together as a common family: and render the Union itself what it ought to be, - A Pillar of Safety to All the States.
