Although I have been most prominent among Englishmen in speaking: of your country, and its Government, and its cause, yet there are many very many, earnest men who read the now enacting chapter of your history as I read it, and who hope it may end, as I still believe it .will .end, in the establishment of freedom over ail your continent. The haters of yourßebublic are few in comparison of the whole people, and every day adds to the number of those who hope to see slavery destroyed, and the Union restored. I regret much that I have not prisi^-ed your country. ,Nowya> visit to it jwoiild' only: add to my grief sat what is ■ passive. ani(^<vou.;^
