conscious OF their patriotism and jealous OF theli
rights. I earnestly urge that the Govefnmen'
interpose distractions to the earliest Prac'caoie

1t would be q cruel mockery TO withhold such de-
cison until after the rremedabe injury OF its exc
cuIon upon those who are unable 70 pay the sum
demanded in lieu Of their persons. Those who are

lawlessness In land would lie rebuked. respect
for legal obligations would be nvigorated, conf
dence in our Government would be strengthened,
the dssensions and jealOusles at the North which
now weaken our cause, would at once be healed mp,
and your voice would be potential In calling forth
the power and force Of united people BY what
