RESOLUTION declaring the sense of Con

 Whereas. the United States are wagng war ooain.t the Confederate States, with the avowed purpose of compelling the latter to reunlte with them uuder the same constitution and government; and whereas the waging ot war with suqh an object is in direct opposition to the sound Drepuohcth maxim, that ' all government rests upon the con sent ofthe governed,'' and can only tend to conSo- idaton in the general government, and the conse, ouent destruction of the rights ot the States And whereas, this result being attained the two sections can only exist together in the relation ot the op- pressor and the oppressed, because ot the great ponderAnce of power in the northern section, coup led with dissimilarity of interest: and whereas, we the representatives of the people of the Confeder ate States in Congress assembled, may be presum- ed to know the sentiments of said people, having just been elected by them. Therefore
 Be u resoIUed by the Congress ot the Contederate States ot A,n0ica, That this Congress do soemnly declare and publish to the world, that 1t is the un alterabe determination of the people of the Conted- crate States in humble eliance upon Almighty God, to suffer all the calamitics of the most protracted war, but that they will never on any terms, poti- caly affiliate with people who are guilty ot an in- vasion of their soil and the buuchery ot their cti- Zens.
