A peace upe'n the basis of reconstruction p<
would bo a loul hypocrisy. For, already \l
"the mountains which divide us are the V
dark mountains of death, and tfe streams t)
which flow between, like the waters of ti
Fgypt, hairts been turned into blood." The h
' sir! of his pcc'pl\; tVhich Ezra confessed and (1
; for which he acknowledged theirnflhctiou* d
; and captivity to be but a just rind modcr a!
ate punishment, was that they had joined b
tn nffiuity with other nations contrary to tl
the Divine purpose and command. Strik- ti
' iugly like theirs has been the sin of tho p
I f*outh in originally forming a Union ho- ir
; tweeu raoes so uncongenial. The history w
| of the first American Revolution should tl
; have demonstrated the fact that separate p
and independent States could uuite for d
theit common defence without the nccea- c<
sityofa formal Union. As distinct and o
separate Colonies they had fought the battles
which secured their independence, ti
and with the blessing* of a gracious Provi- T
deuce they mi^ht have continued to live !i
and prosper as independent States in peace | I,
without the intervention of a Federal I n | 13
'ion. Hut the desire of natioual grcatorse ti
ami the nroud auibitiou so common to man <1
j led to tho foriRaUou of a Government to w
which the most antagonistic element* were ..
j expected to coalesce into an harmouion* >
whole. The Cavilier, the llugcnot and n
( the l'uritan, men who, in the couutrics cl
t whence they came could never agree, were tc
1 expected to become one in a great Kcpnb I li
! lie, in which, while the independent rights | fi
ol each respective State were to be seemed y
and acknowledged, a great central Govern* e
ment was to represent their common inter b
cats. Such an Union, as might naturally yi
l?cexpected, would have a direct tendency *ti
to social LtWnlgatnation and national con h
solidation. The la|?e of years has shown h
the fallacy of the theory which hoped from C
, such incompatible elements to produce an o
| liaru*ctiious whole. The cflort of man wits ( u
i directly opposed to the order of God. Na- it
turc proclaimed many from oue, man sought ?
' to reverse it, and proclaimed to the world
JJ ft!urihut ntturn." The South may be n
tiered the seeuritcs of a Constitution and f(
laWs, si eh as it desires, but if the experi- ?i
t-nce ot the last half century has taught st
any lesson it is the inadequacy of all such tl
guarantees when unsupported by an iden- ui
tity of interest The races of men who it
j composed the old Union were not more si

It is not hard to discover in the history ,
\ of ot*r present struggle the special interpo- m
i sition of Uivine Providence, to prevent a h
re-construction of toir former Union. That di
Union had been so ?ong and deeply cUcr- pi
ksbed and venerated in the hearts ol our m
i people fhfst when tho work of its disruption L
' began the strongest effort! oh many good hi
: and patriotic men were directed to heal w
tho breach. There were many no doubt l<
