from the North and the South. dreading
the consequences and foreseeing the re-

bornly refused, prefering dissolution of
the Union and desolating war to an act

the danger and thus warned the fanatics:

that if the Northern States refuse wilfuly and

degrade them in the estimation of the

termination to resist subjugation. The leaders

They will not lay down their arms and accept
