Again. For obvious reasons, we have not always used real names when writing of real persons for we would not involve living friends, or their families, for their good deeds. We refer now to Mr. Loguen's life in Tennessee, not to his life in New York, or Canada. In Tennessee, slavery rules the tongue, the press, and the pen. In New York and Canada, these are given to free judgment and discretion. At the north, men are answerable for such judgment and discretion to the law only. At the south, they are amenable to an over grown monster that devours alike law and humanity. At the south, we give Mr. Loguen's connection with slavery, and therefore conceal names. At the north, we give his connection with liberty, and therefore give names of friends and enemies alike.
