AVE lives ueIenSe OF the moral
ence of the nation deserve to be commemorated by |
works of art that the evidence of their virtue may
De ever present to the eye of the people By our

he present time in reference to the Northwestern
Oundary question. Your voices to-day give in
truction to our Government to abide by the treaty
aithfully, condition that England will do the
ame The treaty must bind both parties, orneither;
lust be executed in good faith, or cancelled. Men
Tho honor the name of Perry will always know
Ow to defend the domain of their country. Has
ny European statesman miscounted the strength of

reduhty to tales of impending disuniOn? Every
ian of Ohio will tell the caumnIatOr unbeliever
lat the voices of discomfort are but the evanescent
lpor of mems breath. Our strifes are but momen-
ny disturbances on the surface, easily settled
nong ourselves. The Union will guard the fame
its defenders, and evermore protect her terri I
ny.
