publiesus ere rejoicing that they have beaten
their own president. In other words they
are rsioieing that-s set of disunion senators
have been ebls to pass an atrocious and out.
Esgeous act, destroying the rights of the
states, over the veto of an honest and patriot
ic president. That's what g the matter.
They are also firing the cannon On the
same account.
The bill has yet to pass the house by two
thirds vote before it becomes law.
II is fit and proper that the Shiny copper
head republicans should rejoice at The pros
pect of destroying the state courts and plac.
ng the liberties of the people at the mercy OF
any ignorant and british pair of shoulder
straps. To override the civil by the militia
~ power seems to be their object. Thank
God the civu and military powers of the gov
eminent are now in honest hands-end that
as soon as the people can get q chance they
will send men to congress who will repeal
the euormities of radoslism and restore the
invaded rights of the people.
