The War Upon the South.
From the baltimore Republican. |

lfIoul tnc bhltlinoTe hepuDlchn,J
The, message Of President Davis corre-
spends in feeling with all the actions and
language Of the official men Of the South
crn Confederacy. We earnestly desire
peace with all men, says President Davis;
we have no quarrel with the North; we
have no desire to interfere with Northern
rights or interests; all We ask is TO be let
alone in the management of our own
affairs. This is the condition of affairs at
the South. They have withdrawn from
the immediate fellowship of those who
denounced their institutions, and for
many years have warred upon them with
out mercy. They desire now to manage
their own affairs in their own way, and
for this it is, that the North is clamoring
! Tor q war OF determination against them.
Such war is unjust as it is inhuman.--
| Will the people of the country, when the
angry excitement of the day has passed
over, give their sanction to war upon
their bretbern. who only claim the great
fundamental right Of all freemen, tho
| right to govern themselves. Can thew
believe in the right Of one section of the
country to subjugate the other, or to at
tempt its subjugation, and to force upon
IL q government hostile to its interests.
What sort Of q Union would that be,
where onehalf the country was kept in
subjugation by the military dcspotism Of
the other? What under such an arrange
ment becomes Of State sovereignty p
What becomes ol the right OF the people
10 choose their own Governors and or.
ganize own governments? Every ono
must see that q Union maintained by
force is simply despotism. That if Mr..
