President either does, not desire the
preservation Of the Union, or that he
loes. not comprehsnd. the .means.by
which that end can be attained. u
either case we need O change in the

Ihisis the supreme moment in our
history, The preservation Of the
Union is Of vital interest /; but the
force of arms without magnanimi.y-H
courage and skill, without justice and
generosity = never can restore our
country tothe happy, prosperous and
glorious position it occupied prior to
the war. Eve NJ a ustria has conceded
g Constitution and a Parliament to
Hungary, cand before the permanent
union Of our States eau DO secured, we
must 10 good faith recognize the con.
stituIional rights Of the Southern
people, aud grant them the generous
amnesty to Which they are justly en-.
titled by-their- heroic devotion, even
ltoI a5mistakenl cause. During our
war, with Mexico, our policy was
conciliatory. Peace Commissioners
accompanied the army, and we selzed
the, arliest opportunity to secure.an
honorable termination of the war.
And although On ethpifeA lay heo6qu,
cred nj our feet, we withdrew Dur
armies at the conclusion -Sotr peace,
without destroying a to@h,Iot ais
