And yet, whsn in ths year q grace eighteen
hundred and aizty-two, it ID proposed BY one Of
the most civilized nations Of the earth, toexer.
else this universally acknowledged power, upon
. certain elsss Of property, held by the rebels,
who are the worst of enemies, the right to
which is, BY the almost universal consent Of
mankind denied, the disputes about which, have
alone given rise to the worst and wickedest re-
bellion that the world ever saw, and the DOS.
session Of which BY the rebels, alone sustains
that rebellion, the cry il at once raised by a
certain class of political expounders-" the
messxSs is unconstitutional" and :" the liberty
Of the people is in danger" "Let all the peo-
pie obey the Constitution" il the exhortation
from tongues, that but recently were fippant
with threats against the Government, if it
should dare to attempt to coerce the rebels to
submission and obedience to the Constitution.
Out upon such hypocritical cant! Nobody
but rebels, proposes to destroy the Constitu-
ton. The Government can be preserved only,
BY preserving the Constitution. The Constitu-
ton can be preserved only, by destroying the
rebellion. The rebellion can best and most
e6ectually be destroyed, BY destroying the
cause which gave rise to it, and sustains it.
That cause is African Slavery. We say it is
TO abolish it, and everything
else on the face Of Gods earth, except the
Constitution and the Union, for the sake of
saving the Constitution and the Union
We say, LET all the people obey the Con-
and let all measures consistent with
The laws and usages of civilized warfare, be
employed by the Government, to compel that
obedience. IT Is NOT UNCONSTITUTIONAL To
SAVE 1HR UNION.
