ReSolUed, That the Congress of the United
States, at the commencement of the late
civil war. declared that it should not be
waged on the part of the Government for
the purpose of overthrowing or interfering
with the rights of these States, but to de-
fend and maintain the supremacy of the
Constitution, and to preserve the Union.
with all the dignity, equality and rights OF
the several States unimpaired. .e.u.-
ReSOtued, That. upon the enforcement OF
these propositions in the manner declared
the faith of the Government was pledged
an appeal to the arbitrament of arms taken;
the lives and property of our citizens free
1yoffered; and upon these propositions
was brought to a successful termination.
ReSOtUed, That secession having failed, ii
follows that the Constitution has been MAIN
tained, that the Union has been preserved,
with all the dignity, equality and rights
of the several States unimpaired; and that
the people of those States are, therefore,
now entitled to equal representation in the
Congress of the United States, and the laws
passed in pursuance thereof.
ResolUed, That as, during the war, the
Government of the United States could not
with honor recede from the position as
sumed, SO now it cannot without dishonor
exact other terms not declared during the
existence of the war and unauthorized by
the Constitution of the United States. -.
