equal patriotic care, the interests of all parts of our
country, to discountenance every effort to loosen
any of those ties by which our fellowship of States
is held in fraternal company, and to oppose all Sec
tionalism, whether it appears in Unconstitutional
efforts by the Northern States to carry so great a
boon as freedom into the Slave States, or in uncon-
sliiutonal efforts by the South aided by Northern
allies, to carry the sectional evil of slavery into
the free States,-or in whatsoever efforts it NAV
make to extend the sectional domination of Slavery
over the National Government. With me the
Union" is twice bessed-6rst as The powerful
guardian of the repose and happiness of thirty.one
sovereign States, clasped by the endearing name of
Country, and next the model and beginning of
that all embracing federation OF States by which
Unity, Peace, and Concord will finally be organ.

deluson of the hour, that any part thereof can be
permanently lost from its well compacted bulk

coin, the national territory and The national heart
Though comprised of many parts, united into one,
The Union is ,eparable only by crash which shall
destroy the whole.
