the Confederate States withdrew from

this a worthc most unjust, cruel and atrociduS
has been waged against thein. As
long as tlieir enemies entertained (he least
httpe of subjecting them, but one voice was
heard among tkctu, and that voice was the
demand for tho vigorous and unrelenting
prosecution of hostilities, even to the bitter
end Conquest, subjugation, annihilation

party at the North was there heard a
whisper of peace, a proposal of adjustment
or reconciliation. Philanthropy was engrossed
with one fanatical idea, and could

for whtfcb ho acknowledged their affliction
and captivity to be bdt a just dnd modei
ate punishment, waa that they had joinei
in affinity with other nations contrary t
the Divine purpose and command. Strik
iugly like theirs has been the sin of th
9outh in originally forming a Union be
tween races so un Congenial. The his tor
of the first American Revolution shouh
have demonstrated the fhet that separat
and independent States could unite fo
theit common defenoe without the necee
sityofa formal Union. As distinct am
sejurate Colonies they had fought the bat
ties which secured their independence
and with the blessings of a gracious Provi
dencc they might have continued to iivi
and prosper as independent States in peaci
without the intervention of a Federal I'n
ion. Hut the desire of nattoual grcati.cs
unrl the nroud uiuLitiuu ao oouiutoo to man
led to tlio formation of a Government ic
which the moat antagonistic element* wen
expected to coalesce into an harmouion
whole. The CaviHer, the Hugcnot ate
die l'untun, men who, in the couutrie
whence they oaweoeuld never agree, wen
expected to become one in a great licpnb
ho, in which, while the independent right
of each respective State were to be socutct
and acknowledged, a great central Govern
tuent was to represent their common inter
est*. Such an Union, aa might naturally
be expected, would have a direet tendency
to social xutffgamation and national cnii
solidation. The lapse of years has shown
the fullucy of the theory whiclt hoped frou
such incompatible elements to produce at
harn.con?u* whole. The effort of man wai
directly opposed to the order of God. Na
turc proclaimed mary from one, man sough
to reverse it, and proolHitc'ed to the work

offered the securitea of a Constitution am

i-nce of the last half century has taugh
any lesson it is the inadequacy of all sucl
guarantees when unsupported by an iden
