-of the 4th New Hampshire volunteers, for
voting for the candidates of his choice,
were unconstitutional and wanton7 acts Or
tyranny, which call for the severe censure
and Just indignation of all good citizens.
3. That with unfeigned astonishment and
alarm, we have read the proclamation of
the President, declaring that no citizen of
any one of the so-called Confederate States,
should be recognized as citizen of the
United states, although he took the oath to
support the Constitution, unless, at the same
time, ne bound himself by oath to become
an ADolitlonlst' AND that ne would recog-
nize one-tenth, to the exclusion OF nine
tenths OF the voters, as constituting each OF
SAID states, PROVIDED that SAID one,tenth
would take an oath 10 become ADontlop-
lists.

the assumption by the PRESIDENT OF power
at once SO dangerous and despotlc; and we
