By rebels and enemies on Jan. 9th. 1861, had
been abridged in the enjoyment of his Just
rights under the Constitution, the Democratic
party were responsible, and not the opposi-

been unable to discover the abridgement Of
a single right which the South possessed
under the Constitution; all the laws they
asked for were passed, and .he records Of our

cede, to deny allegiance to the United States,
to rebel? For long time after the rebels
showed determined resistance to the govern
ment the war was conducted on the most
conservative principles, all that was asked OF
them, although they had forfeited the right
to life and property by committing the crime
of treason, was to throw down their arms,
acknowledge their allegiance to the govern

Was this asking too much? What has been
done since By the government, or what has
been since demanded is consequence of
their inveterate opposition to the supremacy
of the government of the United States, and
their inhumau cruelty.
