respondent is referring to the reported resig-

what he mas TO say, he states that the Court is
opposed TO secession in every form, and he as

So far as the North Is concerned ii Is a
"nlsgEABLE ABSTRACTION" But to the South

Constitution, have equal rights with those of
the North in the Territories, and when a great
party, prevailing by large matorities In the
Northern States, denies 10 them this eq uality,
