What an amazing madness il this refusal Of help !
and especially this throwing back of help into the
hands OF tie enemy, and consequently into effective

Nothing is palmer than that we should either
recede from the war, give it up, and let the rebels
have their own way; or that we should resolve to
conquer them and to use, as under such resolve we

have in effect said that the avowed, paramount
and engrossng object Of the Government is to re-
establish the Constitution and Slavery. But TIE
entertaining Of this object in the midst Of our life
and death struggle is not more untimey and ruinons
than tie hope OF realizing it is vain. As rational
might you expect that the earthquake which IS con-
vusing tie city i'll leave the city il found it, as
that the yiews taken of the Constitution and Slavery
after the war will be identical with the views taken
of them before the war. They wto shall survive
the war will do Just what they please with the Con-
stituton and Slavery, our President and his poll
ticiars to the contrary Notwithstanding II these
survivors shall ike slavery, they viii have II Al
they can. Ii they shall dislike it, they viii not
have it. ii they thsll like and have Slavery, they
will make the Constitution clearly ard strongly Tor
it, II they shal dislike il, they will make the Con-
stituton clearly and strongly against It. Nothing
can be more foolish than for US to lie ser oty IiDS

need not repeat that we shall fail in this war
unless We aim Il conquest. / aGd that this must be
our aim very speedily. Tens, yes, hundreds II

And then will come ttoir scoInful and whitening re-

unworthy of the respect and even Of the name Of q
