thize with q large majority of the country
for the restoration of the Missouri Compro.
mise, or who will hesitate to exert himself
for the restoration Of that restriction. Sec.
ond, the restoration should be restored as
proper indication of the wisdom, patriotism
and slighted honor Of the great statesman
who imposed it a. tho necessary and GER
tain means Of reviving harmony and con.
cord among the States Of the Union; third,
useless and factious agitation of the slave
~ question in or out of Congress, is un.
wise and unjust in every section Of the I'm.
ion, but until tn, restoration is restored 1t
is . solemn duty We owe to the past, pres.
ent and future steadily and firmly to per-
sst in efforts to that end. The first reso-
luton was rejected BY one majority. Inc
