WHO ARE THE REVOLUTION
1&r4.

We hear much needless CANNON about the
..southern Revo.utions,s" and that, too by South
ern men. Why in Heavens 1ame do they not re-
member tina whilst their blatant tongues are spit
ing their venom and hatred against the South, that
in the same breath they advocate the submission
of freemen Of the South to Revolutionists OF the
North If the term Secessioniss, is not popular
with these men, and if they prefer the term South
ern Rev olutionist," admit the latter for argu-
ment sake, and will prove that Lincoln was elected
by Revolntionists and that his triumph is not the
triumph of party-but Revoluton-a Rsvou-
ton too, not having n much sanction under the
Constitution the election of JEFFERSON DAVIS, OF
Miss, the Southern Confederated States.
The Chicago Platform pledges Abraham Lincoln
to overthrow the Constitution of his country, and
Mr. Lincoln in his letter acceptance fully coacurs
in its letter and spirit, and pledges himself to
c>mp,h it. Ho repudiatcs the decision Of the Su
pr"me Court upon that nstrument.-The voice of
the Mob is above the voice and authority Of lar
TIE Constitution is cursed if it is what the Court
say,the Bible is worthless if it sanctions slavery.
Is this not REVOLUTION.
Now look at JEFFERSON DAVIS. The States that
have seeded have carried the Constitution OF
fathers in its purity, baptized with their blood.
Like the Children IF Isreal Of old, they carry with
them the Ark Of the Covenant, end hold to the
faith Of their fathers. We convey better
idea than by giving the words Of President Davis
himself:
I'VE have changed the consti u-nt parts but not
the systtn. of tiovernmt the Constitution
t,rmed by fathers is that of th.,: Confederate
States. In their exposition Of it, AMI i'll the Judicial
conxtructl"n it las received have light which
reveals it's III & ming.
