saw We msy aready see in the future its gathering
groups On every hillside in every valley and every
prairie in the free states We hear the deep and
omiuous murmur of tie earnest voices Of its
myriad sowly-moying masses. We behold in their
faces the serious and unalterable determination of
their purposes in behalf Of freedom. We see the gi
gtntic array gradually approach, closing its thick
ranks and moving onward with a force that merely
raaiat
sweeps along with the force of the tempest and the
tornado The spirit of liberty snmates the spirit of
progress mpes and spirit Of solemn religious duty

Of history come but slowly They have their source,
as the great rivers have theirs, in the little rills
that trickle in the hidden recesses Of the plain and
the mountain. But cannot hide from our vision
the vital fact that this party once aroused and con-
solidated on platform sufficiently wide and substan-
tal to afford sure basis for its operation. such

end if there shall prove to be majority of the House
in favor Of the final contamination of this scheme we
advocate the determined resistance of the minority
that consummatcn. This bold and astounding assault
upon the cause of liberty and of progress should be
net by northern representatives in Congress in
the spirit with which freedom in it, most lofty
mood has ever resisted oppression. 1t is solemn
duty which devolves upon them, without agency
Of thcrs to bring about the crisis that enoln'
their action. We know that it is easier to shirk
it than to discharge it. But in so clear ease
it were culpable to refuse to engage in the
only procedure which gives any hope of srresting
the infamous measure For whatever results shall
follow such a course cheerully court our share OF
the responsibility Whatever that result shall be, we
unhesitstngly say, Let it come. There are greater
evils than conflict between two parties in the legls
latve branch Of the Government-greater evils than
t,mporarily blocking the wheels Of public affairs or
than producing a shock which shall preciptately send
tie members of Congress home 10 their constituents
And clearly among them, in our estimation, are the
fatal and farrachng consequences OF the passage Oi
the Nebraska bill. We urge, therefore, un-
bending determination the part of the
northern members, hostile to this intOlerable
outrage, and demand Of them in behalf of Peace, in
behalf OF Freedom. in behalfof Justice and Humanity,
resistance 10 the last Better that confusion should
ensue-beter that discord should reign in the Nation
al Councs-better that Congress should break up in
wild disorder-n6y, better that the Capitol itself
should blaze by the torch of the ncendary, or fall
and bury all it, inmates beneath its crumbing ruins
than that this perfdy and wrong should be hnay ac-
c,mplished. We feel that these convictions are
shared ly northern millions, and that wherever the
northern mind has unrestained action and uterance
it will declare them In pursuing the course We ndi
cae the friends OF freedom in the House will be
tanned Ly the Press and by the People and IS We be-
leye. in whatever form support shall be demanded.
We devoutly urge them TO be faithful to their trust in
this great emergency. and TO confidently rely upon
popular sympathy that will treasure their deeds a. the
acts of martyrs such course will secure the sup
mort of men who will hold their lives cheap in the
msntsinsnce of the righteous cause which that mi
nority is called 10 defend.
