That is ths result, and we may ss...

The Senator from Texas says that
the South will force an ignoniiuious s
treaty from us in Faneuil Hall. To,
this he would answer well you

know your bravery; we do not wsnt

IL you drive us to the necessity wo :

one state seeded. There was no
such immunity for him. There was
no wov, then, for state to go out Of
the Union, but she could demand
signal Justice under the Constitution,
and indicate her grievances while
the flag Of the nation waved over
her. There was no way for state
to 90 out Of the Union, except by
making war and vindicating by force

and II she did this, he had prophe-
cy in lis mind.

himself the disruption Of any portion
oi the United States, where the poo.
pie think themselves aggrived, il
thcre was any honorable release from
'Iit. But all this trouble 10 a matter
of prejudice superinduced by listen-
ing to tho enemies of the Republican
party. We are looked upon in the

men; but il the South will sccede,
we will preserve the Union and
await the glurious future. Mexico
owes England eight millions Of dol.
lars. and asks of us protection. and
She has all the elements to build mp
glorious Republican Empire. Tho
Republican party will do anything
for the. Union. The Senator from
Illinois and his colleague had said
that the Black Republicans were
going for reign Of equality, and
would build up black government.
He (Wade) thought it would be one
Of the most blessed things, II finduce-

Then adopt the homestead policy,
and We will have such power, vest.

come among us, and we will build

Canada will knock at our doors, and
we will have all the elements 20

and more just than the world has
