able With having betrayed the confidence
generously reposed in them by the South
and with having attempted to appropriate 10
their own section of the country, all me
power ola common government.
If Be asked of us why we did notsympa'
thise with the South in the late rebellion, II
such were our views of the enornity OF the
offence committed by the majority at the
North, we answer--That the South did not,
in our Judgment, try every peaceable means
of redress first, as our Revolutionary Ances'
tors did. They might perhaps have proven
ted the success of the Republican party in
1860 had they chosen to do so and, a, all
events had they not withdrawn their mem
bcrs from Congress they could have proven
ted the Republicans from adopting any of
their obnoxious schemes, until the people
could get time to adopt the Crittenden Com
promise, and the sober second thought ofthc
North could sweep from power the disturb
ing element. They did not choose to wait,
when their own interest, and the expe'
riment tot free govcrnment here, ms we thought,
demanded more time and patience on their
part. We thought more over that the peo'
pie Of the South, whose political prejudiccs
were highly inHamed, were dragged into the
rebellion by the hasty action of some OF
their States and leaders, before they wished
it. 1t was settled conviction on our mind
too that the success Of the Republican party
was not the deliberate action Of the North,
but partly accidental, and that il was due te
them, as well as the cause oftrcc government
and the vast importance Of the unity OF oul
country, that more time should be given t'
determine their real intention.
This difference Of opinion, however, never
led us to approve Of the miserable polio,
which led TO the formation and success OF The
Northern party. We believed 1t then, anS
We believe IT now, TO have been the cause d
an unnecessary war, no mnttcr whether The
South were in error or not and think iha
the time has now come, since the war Is over

Congress has been il session near

well to consider its doings 1t has har-.
div given thought to the great public
debt=-has made no proyisi.n for regu-.
iarly reducing it. The commerce of the
countrywide manufacturing, and other
business relations of the pcople-the
great controlling interests of the land,
have been overlooked and neglected.
But the negro, day by day. aud hour
by hour, has had the attention OF this
Congress, The white man seems TO be
considered as Of no account. A few
DAYS since, member offered arcsou-
ton setting apart a single hour in day
for the consideration Of the vital inter
ests of the country, which concern white
men. 1t was voted out Of sight in an
instant, and Congress went ON with its
negro programme.
Congress has done nothing to harmon
ize the people of the different sections
Of the country but has labored great
deal TO pass measures calculated to dis
affect one portion, aud to bring harm to
the general interests Of the country, by
continuing division which ought no
longer 70 exist.

President is laboring, night and day, to
make moro perfect Uni6n-to bring
