Superiority of Moral over Political Power

‘The Superiority of Moral over Political Power,’  is the title of an admirable essay, by Adin Ballou, which appears in the last number of the Non-Resistant, and also of the Pennsylvania Freeman.  It is in all respects highly creditable to the gifted mind which has given birth to it — and that is praise enough.  We intend to copy it for the special benefit of political abolitionists, as soon as we can find room.
