David S. Reynolds Quote

The Richmond Enquirer, the South's leading paper, called antislavery senators a pack of curs who have become saucy, and dare to be impudent to gentlemen and thus must be lashed into submission…. Let them understand, that for every vile word spoken against the South, they will suffer so many stripes, and they will soon learn to behave themselves like decent dogs—they never can be gentlemen.
