Description
A Georgian paper publishes a letter, dated Platte County, Missouri, from a slaveholder to his brother in Georgia, relative to the new territory of Kansas, in which occurs the following passage:
"Many emigrants are going to Kansas from Kentucky and other slave states. Missouri will leave no stone unturned even to the, at least, temporary emigration of half her population to save it from abolitionists; and if people of the other states do justice to themselves, we will secure it (Kansas) for the South."Date(s) of Creation
