potntee.
There is but one point In the speech on
which we care to comment. Alr. Perry up-
dertakes to explain the collapse Of the c9n-
Ederacy and the reasons he assigns deserve
consideration. 1t ia 3Ir. Per1Y's opiulon
that, II the eoutheIn people had been willing
to make the requisite sacrifices, they could
never hare been subdued-wkIeh Is probably
ttne.
Assuming thI. view to be correct, there re-
cults N important lesson both to the Nor
them people and the Federal Government.
It is the old lesson Eo often fnculcated BY our
early Statesmen, that the Union can be- pre.
served only by Justice and conctliation. ii.
iu the insolence Of triumph, We ALLOW our
st1ses to forget this important truth; II We
assume, because We subdued people who
rebelled without sufficient cause and whose
heart WAS not In the work, that revolt
against actual injustice and oppression could
easily be put down, we shall make great
and fatal mistake. These early and oft-te
lsated lessons OF forbearance were never
more Important than at this conjuuctute.
