- What a queer flintily that:Jefferson fami
l:y Must be ! It is a progresSiVii &redly, an
improving, family., Minima' Jefferson,, said
that-slayery was the greatest evil that ever
cursed a countryonci that when . he looked
up to God, the equaLkather of the black nian
and the white malt,, and saw hdw in this
countrk the white! man held the black in

Jefferson, like some ',of. us, actually fie
lieved that Moses :told the truth; ':when he .
said that the :Mini - 0)(y sent - mail : abroad into
a world of thorns' nd thistles; and told him,
I.either for a blessing or a curse, to go and
! earn his - bread by :the sweat.of his -brow...
Thomas JeffersOn thought this was, a true
oceount, : and-since4he White man had - stolen' r
I the black man; he-hoped the Merciful - Father
• would find some Way to -remove the evil
where It existed, ring hims - elf endeavored to .
prevent its growth. .
Jefferson thought labor o-as good for the
white man. Jefferson was a than, who rea

Well, Jefferson reasoned when he looked
on a 'sheep:and taw' the wool.: on his
'`back, and WaS-aWaie that in our eliinate,
men-needed coats made . from , Wool—he reit- -
soned, I say, that if man was not..,liinant to
