There is certainly very unfortunate state OF e,.
ment IN the country and in Congress which ia mpcb .
be depored 1t will be kept up until after the el.e..
IN November next, and then it will subside Conc.
and the country will then resume its usual tone and -
Unon will be left ten times stronger than il was tho a.
it formed. For one claim TO be an American ~
zen, ind mean 10 remain One-there are Tot Dpmo,,
enough alive 10 deprive OF that great birthright vLa

be found; and no such party the Democracy can CO.

spare them all that 60 without very serious a.
Th,rs who seem 20 think the Union would =.
dissolved If the Democratic representatives Of the Sub
States TO leave Congress in body and retu,,
home Nobody suspects the Opposition Of such foiy \
First ct ALL they are going TO dono such thing 1t Eou5
be Gods blessing if many Of them would and let bes,
men sake their places but If they toere quorum voui
still b. left for all useful and legislative purposes Its
whole body should break up ToU it would not aae,
the tion. Congress has broken up every year from
1889 down to lS5S-sometimes in good humor Ana
sometimes in bad one, but it mattered little which AZ
far the Union concerned. Neither the DemOcrAev
nor Congress had much to do with making the Union
and neither will be able dissolve it, The pOxer IA,
created is the power TO destroy and that not COT
gress. The Democracy the friends Of the
Consttuton-they originally opposed to is adop
ton, aud to this day. a term of reproach have hab
ally denounced m who have been is friends and SUD
porters Federaists because il the Federal par
headed by such men as Washington Madison, Hamilton
and Marshall that carried through tumphany agans
the most strenuous efforts of the Democratic Repub
can party, as il was then called.
In the case of Cohen vs. the State of Virginia before
the Supreme Court of the United States Chief Justice
Marshall than whom purer more able Judge or BET.
ter man, has never adorned the bench In any age 0,
country, said
1T true if all the States or majority Of them Re-
fuse TO elect Senator'S the legislative powers Of the 20
vernment will be suspended But il any one State sha
sal,,t NhuNa
be the less capable Of performing all its functions The
argument founded on this fact, would seem rather 10
owe the subornaOn of their parts 10 the Whole haa
the complete independence of any one OF them Tie
trainers of the Constitution we're indeed unable 10 make
any provisions which should protect that instrument
against q general combination OF the States, of he
people for destruction and conscious of this Inability
they have made the attempt But they able 70
provide against the operations OF measures adopted BY
any one state whose tendency might be 10 tie
execution of these laws and thus it the part OF true
wisdom to attemptit. We think they hare attonpa
H."
And 80 think the people and the Democracy can
come home as they choose-but they about
as likely do that they to dissolve the Union
for that would be a surrender of Money! Place and POI
en- and when you catch them at that, you may catch
weazel asleep" or a hen with teeth.
IL is true that many violent and improper things have
been said and done the North and have an espe.
cal right to complain of those States that have adopted
legislative enactment for defeating multiplying the 70.
euye slave law even il some of It's provisions are o.
iectionabe them-that is not their remedy and ther
have right resort to it; but violent and TO-
temperate things said and done here also Of which hy
may complain? Look at the advertisement which FOL-
