We are permitted to give few extracts of
aprivate letter received in this cltv from q
gentleman of Sunderland, which will show
not only the estimate in which Mr.. Iinasav "a
held by the people whom he rnisrepresen,s IN

each State had under the Constitution, so that
In all the terrible convulsions resulting from
breaking up this Union created by the fathers,
there was no violation oflaw or unconstitutional
right on the part Of the insurgents; that they
were only acting upon well-settled rights, and
that the only violation Of rights has been by
the Government and people of the North WHO
have attempted to maintain the Union. The

tor puts this point, but what view he takes Of
South back b7 new guarantees, and recon-
structfng the Union VITA slavery restored to
its original status. We commend the extract
to that class Of Democrats who have not yet
gone quite over the precipice which separates
loyalty to the Union from the raukest disun-
ionisn and treason. Says Mr. DayisI 8 hu3
Ours is not revolution. We were free
and independent people in States that had the
right TO make better Government when they
say 1T. They sought to infringe upon the
rights we had, and We only instituted new
Government on the basis OF these rights. We
are not engaged in q Quixotic Eight for the
rights of man; our struggle Is for inherent
rights, and who would surrender them? Let
every paper guaranty possible be given, and
who would submit? There Ia but one thing
