But another cloud has appeared above

State conventions and State legizla-
lures have adopted resolutions proposing
TO abridse and limit the power OF the
general government. / warn YOU that
this tendency, 30 far as it impregnates
the public mind, is dangerously near the
sentiment for States' rights that resulted
in the ordinances of secession in the
early COS.
Limit this power OF national govern
nent and the hope of the liberty Of
mankind Is gone. Limit the power of
the government. given through the wis-
dom Of our foEefathers, supported and
maintained since by the blood OF mil
