We fully endorse the sentiments OF The New York
Journal OF Commerce. Unless the laws be supported,
"the Union cannot be preserved. The sooner this is
understood, the better it viii be for all concerned" We
do not advance this proposition at random Perhaps our

as fair witness as he can be; for we are as much
devoted to the Union, and have given as strong evil
dences Of that attachment he any other man has
exhibited. But we have the advantage of knowing the
southern sentiment better than himself we have been

violate the Compromise and the constitution those ia

the fearful consequences.
