says; ''' 80. ,, -,
The Confederate States may say that they
only exercised the right of peaceable Seces-
sion. That is right they assume as q set
tied point, and act on it, when 1t in a right
not admitted and even if it were, no care
was taken TO exercise it in peaceable way.
Extreme violence was every where used.
No matter if the right of Secession were
granted, it is subject to rights long vested
and understood.
II will not do TO tell us that all property
in State than has seeded is subject to its
absolute dominion; that State is under ne
Obligations to respect the rights that have
| grown up out of former connections long
established; that State has right to seize
forts, arsenals, arms and munitions, the prop-
erty as much of other States as their own,
and admit no rule but its own high dis
cretion. This is not a'peaceable right; it is
| a revolutionary one, if it exists at all.
However much partisan feeling and pas
sion may exult over such facts, the wCrld
| will condemn them as justified by no theory
of pesceable Secession.
The Confederate States do not Justify
their conduct by the right of peacea6le Sc
cession. If that were the basis, then they
need allege no wrongs or grievances at all.
A State goes because she chooses to go, and
reason; instead of that, they place their
defense on the wrongs they have suffered
and that they apprehend. They give the
reasons of revolutionists, not of men seek
ing lawful aud peaceable mode of redress.
AS conservative men North will look at
the whole subject without any sectional in-
| teTest to justify the wrongs of the Secession
movement, they can only oppose it aud all
that engage in it. When Kentucky joins in
the war on the Federal Government, she
must lose tbeir sympathies and incur their
hostility.
We can count on no friends in the free
! States with such programme. We become,
by the act of Secession, their enemy, and
| mUy as well look that ia the face. We should,
! indeed, be less excusable than the Cotton
States. We hold Secession neither right
nor expedient, and must join a cause we
have denounced as wrong from ths start.
| 1t is not worth while to tell US that the
| Federal Government is wrong too. We can
not justify breaking up Government be
