MEssRs. EDIToRs THE SENTINEL SIRs-Iagain
presume to request the favor Of your publishing few
lines in your columns, if you deem them proper. As
citizen of the United States, and from the design of
our free and republican institutions, hold that it is
the privilege of each and every citizen TO entertain
and express whatever opinion they may see proper,
in regard to the principles of cur government. And
if those principles from pure and disinteres-
ed motives, they certainly reflect honor those who
possess them, such persons always open to
conviction, and ready to change when convinced.
The present is time of great moment to every clt-
zen of the United States A cloud of dark political
contraction hangs us-and the thunder Of the
approaching storm shakes the Union from the centre
to It's circumference. Involved in war, our arms
opposed by foreign force, and by still
greater, but more contemplate force at homeland
why are we opposed! One word will answer it
for political purposes for those persons who charge
the present Executive Of our Government with being
the cause of the present calamities those only
who opposed to him in political PRINCIPLES; they
do it not because they beve it, but because they look
upon this event susceptible Of being bent into
political humbug, by which they and their party may
be advanced in power and with this belief they cry
out in sentorisns voice that the war Is unjust and
