that they would have no record by which pos

the follies and the sins Of their ancestors.
We have made this article alcady too long,
and yet there is much remaining TO be said
upon this general subject. In closing we will
simply add that the Argus has entirely per-
verified the history of the failure to pass the
Crittenden proposition; and suppressed facts
which show that the Southern members
would not have accepted it-facts which
show that Mr.. Douglas was deceived, and
hence his remarks quoted by the Argus
facts which have convinced such men as Ed
ward Everett that the attempted compromise
war fallacy, and could never have resulted
in good. OF this history and these facts we
may speak hereafter
