iniamy Of this order has not been ex-

Infamous decreesor J Jeiireystook liberty
and life from the people Of England 1t
was a void order made in a ease in
which there was no jurisdiction, at
midnight and to support and enforce
it came the whole power Of the Gov
eminent of the United States, civil and
military And yet there has been no
Infringement Of the Constitution, no
breaking down Of the laws Of the Re-
public, no destruction Of preccdents !
And we are asked here to blndly vote
to endorse the action of the President
in permitting will not say creating
but in permitting-the destruction of
the very essence Of the doctrines that
lie at the base Of the institutions under
which we live, tho essential, the vital
doctrines Of a government of law and
of civil liberty.
