now OUR SOLDIERS SHOULD BE PREPARF
TO FIGHT.
1t is singular fact that large majority of the
people Of the United States are unacquainted vita
the great Importance of the cause for which the
soldiers OF the Union are fighting. Let every man
and woman throughout the United States care
fully read and study the Constitution ofthe United
States, they will become convinced of the holiness
81 our cause and of the wckedness OF those who
are striving to overthrow this grand palladium (
freedom.
We believe that had the reading of the ConstI.
tuition been adopted as daily lesson in every
school throughout the United States the doctrines
OF secession ana states rights would never have at
tanned the position of political question nor
would the country have been called upon to mourn
for the unfortunate wraIgllng and miscoustructions
that have arisen, and which SO many OF our states.
men have lost their time in attempting its inter.
pretatIon
Millions of our citIzeEs have never thoroughly
studied the constitution, and even at the present
time, when It is the duty Of every citizen of this
country to inform himself of the rights and puyi.

therefore, oi correcting this great oversight, and
to furnish every man, woman and child through
out the United States with the means of studylny
this great palladium Of liberty, and to protect US
against future false doctrines and political disas-
