resources you can successfully resle the foIcs Of this
eIeat and powerful n7tioD.
II you have csl;ulstsd upon :hs forbssraoc' Of the
tnic1 Statte-n you have permitted your'eves -
suppose that this Government Will fa 20 pa. forth is
strength and bring yOu . s1OoliesDpyou bavs fallen
into grave mistake. You have settled upon teri
tory which les geographically n the heart OF the
Lh,on Tne land y0u live upon VS. purchased by .he
United States sni paid for ont Of thar Treas1Iy. Tue
proprietary rgh! and title to il il them, ana mt "a
you. Utan is bounded On every side by Suites ana
Territories whose people are true to the CLo5. l. If
absurd to believe met they will permit yo1 to
cree. in their niJst Government OF your own, not
emily independent Of the authority which they oil ack
Iowiedge but hostile 10 them AID their Interests.
Do Lot deceive yourselves try 10 mslead Others
by propsgaiIpg the idea that this crusade a. .inst
your Iebglop. Tee Coz .ti;ution and laws of thi-
Try take notice OF yoar creed, whether 1t
be true or fslse. That - a question between your
God snd yourselves IN which disclaim all right to in
teIiere II you obey the lave, keep the peace and re-
sp.ct the just rights 4 Others you will be perfectly
secure, and may live on in your present f'h or chsnge
it for another at your pleasure Every Intelligent man
among you knows very weHthst this Government has
never, directly OF Indirectly sought 10 nolet you 10
your worship to cotro you in your ecclesiastical e.
fars, to IL fuence you IN your religious opia-
lODs.
The rebellion il not merely a violation of your
legal duty it Is without Just cause, without reason,
without ex ale. You never made a compliant that
wss not listened TO with patience. You never ex-
hibeo real grievance that was not rsdrssssd AZ
promptly es it could be- The laws and regulations
enacted for your government by Congress have been
equal and just, and their enforcement wac mani
S,sty Ieceisary for your Own welfare and hsPpires
You have never asked their repeal. They are simi-
lar in every material respect 20 The laws which have
BEEN passed for tbe other Territories Of the Union
ceptopl have been chee,fuy obeyed. No people
ever hyed who ireer from unnecessary legal
restraints than you. Human wisdom never devised
political syst, IN which bsstowed more blessings or
imposed lighter burdens than the Government Of
the United States in its operation upon the Terri
tories.
But being apzious 70 save the efason Of blood and
10 avoid the indscIinliDate punishment of q whole
people for cIipes Of which is not probable that ali
are equally guilty offer full and free pardon
TO ali who will submit then selves to the authority Of
the Federal Government II you refuse to accept it,
let the csnsequences fall upon your own heads But
couture you 70 p.use deliberately and feet well be-
fore you II lect this tender Of peace ard good will.

NY proclamation, Ell joining upon al public ofcsrs IN
