centralized. if not by the passages Of laws,
then by the adoption. through partizan
influence, Of an amendment directly in
conflict with the original design of the
Constitution. This proves how necessary
it is that the people should require the
administration of the three great depart
ments of the Government strictly within
the limitations Of the Constitution. Their
boundaries have been accurately defined,
and neither should be allowed to trespass
upon the other. nor, above all, to encroach
upon the several rights of the people and
the States. The troubles of the past four
years will prove to the nation blessings If
they produce SO desirable result 7Gf1
Upon those who became young men a.
mid the sound of cannon and din ofarms,
and quietly returned to the farms. the fac
tories, and the schools Of the land, will
principally devolve the solemn duty OF
perpetuating the Union of the States, in
defiance of which hundreds of thousands
Of their comrades expired. and hundreds
of millions of national obligations were
incurred. A manly people will not neg
lect the training necessary to resist ag-
gression, but they should be jealous test
the civil be made subordinate to the mill
tary element We need to encourage. in
every legitimate way. a study of the Con-
stitution for which the war was waged, a
knowledge of and reverence for whose
wise checks by those so soon to occupy the
places filled by their seniors will be the
only hope Of preserving the Republic. -.
The young men of the nation, yet under
the control of party, must resist the ten
dency to centralization-an outgrowth Of
the great rebellion-and be familiar with
the fact that the country consists Of united
States, and that when the States surrend,,
cred certain great rights for the sake Of a.
more perfect union, they retained rights,
as valuable and important as those which
they relinquished for the common veal. L
This sound old doctrine, far different;
from the teachings that led to the attempt
to secede. and kindred theory that States
were taken out of the Union by the rash
acts of conspirators that happened to dwell
within their borders, must be received and
advocated with the enthusiasm Of early
manhood, or the people will be: ruled by.
corrupt combinations of the commercial
centres, who, plethoric from wealth. annu-
ally migrate to the capital of the nation to
purchase special legislation: Until the
representatives Of the people in Congress;
more fully exhibit the diverse views, and
interest of the whole nation and laws;
cease to be made without full discussion
at the behest Of some party leader, there
will never be proper respect shown by
law-making power either to the judicial
or executive branch Of the Government.
The generation just beginning to use the
ballot box, it is believed, only need that
their attention should be called to those
considerations to indicate, by their yetesi,
that they wish their representatives to OBJ
serve all the restraints which the people.

unlimited sway, endeavored, by costly
and deliberate trial, to impeach one who
defended the Constitution and the Union
not only throughout the war Of the rebel:
lion, but during his whole term of office
as Chief Magistrate; but at the same time
could find no warrant or means at their
command to bring to trial even tbeqchief
of the rebellion. Indeed, the remarkable
failures in his case were so often repeated
that for propriety's sake, if for no other
reason, it became at last necessary to ex-
tend to him an unconditional pardon.
What more plainly than this illustrates
the extremity Of. party management and
inconsistency on the, one hand and Of fac
tion, vindictiveness, and intolerance on
the other? Patriotism will hardly be en-
couraged when, in such record it sees
that its instant reward may, be the most
virulent party abuse and obloquy. if not
attempted disgrace. Instead Of seeking
to ''make treason odious," it would in
truth seem to have been their purpose
rather to make the defence of the Consti-
tuition and the Union crime, and to pun
ish fidelity to an oath of Office, if counter
to party dictation, by all the means at
their command. -
Happily for the peace of the country,
the war has determined against the as
sumed power of the States to withdraw at
pleasure from the Union. The institution
of slavery also found its destruction in q
rebellion commenced in its interest. It
should be borne in mind, however, that
the war neither impaired nor destroyed
the Constitution, but. on the contrary,
preserved its existence. and made appar-
ent its real power and enduring strength.
All the rights granted to the States. or
reserved to the people thereof. remain
therefore intact. Among these rights is
that Of the people of each State to declare
the qualifications of their own State cleo
tors. It is now assumed that Congress
can control this vital right, which can
never be taken away from the States with
out impairing the fundamental principles
of the Government ITSELF It is necessary
