DRIFTING AND DRIVEN.

/ domestic wars are never planned. Al
history shows that nations drift into them
, against the better judgment Of the sober and
rlght-thinkln8 men of both contending fac
tons"
Such is the dictum Of Ben Batter. It will
not be accepted as true by any one in the
habit Of noting the steps by which, in tis-
turbed periods, men who thirst for power
advance towards their purposes.
In order that tyrant or tyrannica party
may have excuse to increase the DO .er already
| held, the commonest course pursued is to
stir up instructions, in order that, in sun
pressing them, more moneyan more soldiers
may seem necessary.
The war of secession, though not strictly
speaking, enkindled for the purpose referred
TO- has, as result, reconciled the masses of
the people to vast increase of the peace
establishment. military and naval, over that
before maintained. 1t has proved to those in
power that any other armed opposition,
whether IN one or several States, coming
from any motive, by calling forth more
force for repression will, when the insurrec-
ton is quieted by arms leave in the hands of |
the conquering government increased and
more disciplined power.
Such result will reconcile citizens to that
increase, and will form an argument for
strong central government Any insurrec-
lion, rebellion or disturbance will necessarily,
when subdued, add to the absolutism and
of the dominating authority.
large property interests will seek protection
rom mob violence under the banner Of the
trong government or strong chieftain.
Capital is timd, but capital will run the
lsk OF seizure by tyrant sooner than by !
aob or an insnrrectionary government.
While domestic wars are seldom planned c
