to endorse the secession resolutions
forced upon the county convention by
Byington, Irish & Co., he writes a
letter to the Prsss Of tina: city in expla-
nation Of his course, and in which he
says that this rebellion is "a monstrous
and wicked rebellion, headed by am
bilious and reckless men, is being wag-
ed against our Government" Also
Admitting that Mr.. Lincoln was elect
ed upon political theories altogether
impracticablc, yet be is President for a
term Of four years, within which our
Government will be permanently saved
or destroyed, and to say that the cleo
ton of any man 70 the Presidency by
the people, is jast cause for rebellion or
an excuse for Withholding support from
tue Government in time Of danger, is
simply absurd. The rebellion was com
menced during the Administration Of a
president who was the choice Of the re-
bellious States. The new Ad,s inistra-
ton could make no change in the laws
without the assistance Of Doth houses of
Congress, both OF which were politically
opposed to him, and he could only re-
fuse to execute the present laws at the
hazard Of an impeachment and trial by
those not his political friends
Now will the rattlesnakes Of lama
own what their Democratic brother
