Preaching Politics, October 26, 1850

The citizens of the County of Madison are invited to attend a meeting in Peterboro, Sunday, Nov. 3, 1850.

It is expected that Gerrit Smith will on that occasion, present the Bible view of Civil Government, and examine the late diabolical law for reducing the poor to slavery.

The exercises are to begin at 10 A. M., and, if the weather be pleasant, are to be in the open air. Good singers are especially invited to attend.

October 26, 1850.
