VERY YOUNG REPUBLICAN EXPECTS CANCEL CULTURE RISE

[By] the operation of this mobocratic spirit... now abroad in the land, the strongest bulwark of any Government... may effectually be broken down and destroyed—I mean the attachment of the People. 

Whenever this effect shall be produced among us... the vicious portion of population shall... gather in bands of hundreds and thousands, and burn churches, ravage provision stores, throw printing presses into rivers, shoot editors and hang and burn obnoxious persons at pleasure.

And with impunity...

The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions:
