differences exist between the President
and members of his Cabinet, or between
different Cabinet officers, on any question

the President, and those who on any
subject shall base their calculations upon
a supposed difference of opinion and pur-
pose between the President and his Cabi-
net officers, will be sure to be wofully
disappointed in the end

it necessary to establish his apostacy by
the most reckless and disingenuous con-
