DON'T UNCHAIN THE TIGER.

DON'I UNCHAlN THE TIGERi
The following ringing caution ha.
been issued under the above caption, BY
Democratic working man, who is ev
identity true to the core, earnest, intel
ligent and patriotic:
When the traitors OF South Carolina
met in Convention at Charleston, and
passed their ordinance to abolish the
American Union, and 10 crush out the
Democratic principles Of free govern
ment in America, and when they af-
forwards fired upon Fort Sumter, and
l knew that Secession meant terrible
war, l said to myself and to them
Don't unchain the tigerI'
But they did it, and for two years
we have seen and suffered the conse-
quences, written in tears and blood and
ruin, in our once happy land; and now
when the rebellion is being nearly
crushed, and JEFF. Davis is finding his
plans defeated, and Southern traitors
in the loyal States are trying to help
him by making civil war at home, |
say to myself-"Don't unchain the IT,
gerl" ......
When hear workingmen talk about
resisting the law, burning houses, Kill
ling public officers, and bursting the
doors wide open for every kind of crime
and disorder, it seems they do not
think Of all the costs and Of all the hor-
rors, or Of widows and orphans and
their scalding tears, and say to them,
"Brothers, in the name of God, Don't
unehain the Tiger" i-s5 r... a
When see well dressed demagogues
filing the ears of the people with lies,
just as the traitors Of the South have
done, only to get the working men
aroused to deeds OF crime and violence,
while they themselves take good care to
heep out of the way, l wish l had the
voice Of thunderer, that might say
to them-"Don't unchain the Tigeri'
Working menl when any man asks
you to break the law, and tries 10 stir
up your passions, while he skulks out
of sight, you may set him down as your
worst enemy. Spurn him as you would
viper. The patriotic working men Of
the North cannot afford to spend time
killing each other. Be wise and above
all things: "Don't unchain the Tigerl"

GKErLEMEN:-The resolutions Of the
Ohio Democratic State Convention,
which you present me, together with
your Introductory and closing remarks,
being in position and argument mainly
the same as the resolutions of the Dem
ocratic meeting at Albany, New York,
l refer you to my response to the latter
as meeting most Of the points in the
former. This response you evidently
used in preparing your remarks, and l
desire no more than it be used with &C.
curacy. In a single reading of your
remarks, ] only discovered one inaccu-
racy in the matter which l suppose you
took from that paper. 1t is where you

pressed the opinion you suppose. /

of Congress, be expunged, the other
guarantees would remain the same; but
the question is, not how these guarau-
tees would stand, with that clause out
of the Constitution, but how they stand
with that clause remaining in it, In
cases ofrebellion or invasion, involving
the pubic safety. If the liberty could
be INDUCED in expunging that clause,
letter and spirit, really think the con-
stitutioral argumentwould be with you.
Ny general view on the question was
stated in the Albany response, and
hence do not state it now. only
add thit, as seems to me, the benefit
Of the writ of habeas corpus is the great
means through which the guarantees Of
personal liberty are conserved and made
available in the last resort and corrob-
oratiye, of this view is the fact that Mr..
Vallaniigham, in the very case in ques-
ton, under the advice of very able
lawyers, saw not where else to go but
to the tabeas corpus. But by the Con-
stitutich the benefit of the ho6eas corpus
itself nay be suspended when in cases
Of REBELLION or invasion the public SAFE
ty MAJ require it.
Youlask in substance whether / re-
ally calm that 1 may override all the
guaranteed rights of individuals, on
the plea of conserving the public safe
ty-woen l may choose to say the pub
lie SAFETY requires it. This question
divestsd of the phraseology calculated
to represent me as struggling for an
arbitrary personal prerogative, is either
simply question pho shall decide, or
an affirmation that nobody shall decide,
what The public safety does require in
case Of rebellion or invasion. The
Constitution contemplates the question
as likely to occur for decision, but it
does not expressly declare whois to
decid, it. By necessary implication,
whenrebellion or invasion comes, the
decisDn is to be made, from time to
time; and I think the man whom, for
the tme, the people have, under the
institution, made the Commander-in-
Chief Of their army and navy, is the
man Fho holds the power and bears the
responsibility Of making it. II he uses
the power justly the same people will
probibly Justify him: if he abuses it,
be isin their hands, to be dealt with
