If Garrison, Wendell Phillips, Abby Folsom Mrs. Rose Horace Greeley, Fred. Douglass and company, male and female, with all their disorganizing and seditious newspaper organs will only join in this Abolition exodus to Kansas Territory, we shall promptly contribute a thousand dollars to the emigrating fund, in order to remove these nuisances west of the Mississippi River; for on our side, or east of the Mississippi, their loss would be the public gain. — New York Herald
What sin has been committed by the virgin soil of Nebraska, that it should be cursed with such a gang of pestilential, social sores!
