Nos, more than At any olner time in the
history Of the Republic, does tn President
stand in need Of popular support. He is
convinced tuat II the great Opjecl Of perpet
ustiug the Union is accomplished, al else
msy be left 70 the peo, le and will right
itself in time. To this end he is devotinR
his energies. He insists Upon The accept
anee Of all issues determined BY the war,
and has received the assurance Of Official
action in many rev lied sts Is already tbat
/ his demands will be comp led with The
dec a,ion by the Mississippi Convention
that the Ordinance Of Secession passed By
that State was null and void al initia, is a
surrender Of the d8crine Of stEte sover-
eignty--the pretext Of rebellion. The
Adjustment Of lavery by the same body is
g re-ensctment Of President Lincoln s Pro-
clamstion and the oaths taken BY the am
nestled rebels. Eeilher S avery nor State
sovereignty can ever revive in those States
IS living issues. They are settled at q
bloody price, and the appalling record will
deter all men IN the futute Fl N in ting the
des la,ion of war and the humiliation Of
ano her conquest. Those who believe that
Slavery may be re-estabiished by the south
ern States, after they shall have been re-
stored 10 their rights under the Constitution,
forget that revo utions never 60 backward,
and that any attempt tore-establish Slave
woul0 cause g revolution greater than that
through which we have just passed, and ac-
companisd by horrors 10 which i has been

resulting from an attempt 10 re-enslave a

country t. re-enact that nadnes-. Besides,
We are cunvineed ID a q majority Of the
Southern people already reslze that they
have been relieved Of a great burtheu.
They rejoice IN the emancipation Of the
ussss Of whites flom the shackles Of this in
tolerant system. They begin 10 breathe
freely, and when once they fee, as We hsve
done in Maryland the fali meaning Of be-
