asc considering ourpreseRt position, aud deal

baen fofeed upou ear confederation. IL we
certd blot on. tbe memories, .he cad, bitter re-
aoiisetiosis ef the past two years and II half,
OH! how willingly weu,dSvs do 60 /. is not
we, or sseh as We, who have destroyed this
Ueioa. The musdersrs Of tkis natiep, the as

Taking it fer granted thst the Admins

it for granted that the Administration has by
such ins.rgmentalities not only destroyed The
Republic, but Is row seeking TO permanently
fassen military dvsputism upon The North,

great Republics of America ayainst the in

VII. L. is possible that the memories Of
wrongs and outraEes cOmm united during ruth.
ltas INVASION of the South may render such al,
alliance work Of uitti ;G,ty for many years;
bnt the statesmen of the South viii, we be-
eve, be the irst TO perceive the necessity for,
and The benefits darivable f.om such relation
ship between the two Republics. IL would
be as much their interest as ours to establish
aud preserve these relations between the
North and South. Such an arrangement
would do away with the necessity OF large
standing armies and extensive navies Ii we
mistake not there is 9 treaty between the
UDited States n Great Britain in regard to
:be great iaS@s, by which the maintenance Of
\ iargs naval force ia those waters ls render
ei unnecessary. As for the settlement of
Abolition ism. tbare will, we think, be less
trouble shaa when tla South was III tho
