eminent cannot endure, permanently,

pset the Union to be di&solUed. l dc not
azpeet tbs house to fell, but do expect
it 70 eease to be divided, It will be-
come all ons thing OF all the other.n
IN other words, Mr. Lincoln asserts aa
fundamental pTiReipls Of this goVsYa-
ment that there mast be RaifoFmity ia
the local lava and domestic institutions
of each & all The States Of the Unioa; b
he therefore invites chs non -slayaholding
States to band together. organize as ons
body, and make war upon slavery In
ksatgeky, upon slaYsFy in Virginia. up-
on slavery ia the OaEolinas, apon slayeEy
in all the slaveholding States in this In
ion, and topeFssvere in that war until IL
shall be exterH1iRatad. He then notifies
the siaFeh0lding State 10 stand together

upon the free States Of this Union With
. View Of establishing slavery fn sAem
all, Of forcing it upon Illia0ia. nI fnEs
laad, and apon every other free State,
and that they shall keep mp the warfare
uuGil it has been formally established in
them all. Ia other words, AE. Lincoln
advocates boldly and clearly waE OF
sections, war Of the North against ths
South, Of the free States against the
slave states--a war OF determination
10 be continued rslentlessly until ths sne
or the other shall be subdued and all the
State shall either become free or bseoms
slave. -E
Now, my friends, I mast say to you
frankly, that take bold, unqualified Ia
sue with him upon thai principle. as
sert that IL is neither desirable or posi-
pie that there should be uniformity iu
the local institutions and domestic reg
ulatioas Of che diHarsns States Of this
| Union. The trainers Of cur government
have contemplated uniformity in its in.

olution, and the sAges who made ths
Constitutions we'll understood thai shG
