strous heresy that the Union was but an
alliance of sovereign states, and that any
one of-its members might,
.in the exercise
of an unlimited sovereignty,' which was
:claimaforlt, Withdraw from such union.
This heresy. waidesignated, and as we all
know, is familiarly called secessionism,and
under its. banner,a great and lbrmidable
combination in ie slave states was tallied.
Thua were confronted two great sec
tional. parties—the Abolitionists North,
and the. Secessionists South-r-the very, au-.I
tipodes of each other in their sentiments ;
-they met on the common platform of Dis
union. Rich, alike, tended to overthrow
the Constitution anti the Union. ta . Ch
alike, are the enemies of the Republic.
The secessionists, claiming to act from the
apprehension that the-threat for "the ut
ter abblitfon . of slavery" would be put in
execution; succeeded- by bare majorities
iu somo cases, and by the more efficient
organization of probable minorities in
others, in procuring the adoption of or
dinances orSecession, or fur the. with
drawal of such States from the American
Union as are- now banded Under the- de
signation" of the Confederate States. Ob
taining, thus, the'formal organization of a
government, they set at deliance.the Con
stitution and laws of the United States,
and' undertook to resist. their execution
within the pretended jurisdiction of this
revolutionary government. Tit&Govern
ment of the United States, in-strict'accor
dance -with its powers, undertook to en- ;
force these laws and to demand obedience
to them—armed resistance was at _once
inaugurated on the part of the Secession:
ists, 7 and . thus began a rebellion and civil
war that has become one of gigantic pro
portions; and for Many Of its eharacteris-i
tics, one of the most tOrmidable.that ever
existed among a . civilized people. At.its
.outset, the appeal was made to the loyal
men of the North; to fly to arms, in order
to the Constitution and aws, Ind
to maintain the Union. With. the rapid

In blither . proseentidn of the emancipa

the proposition to aria and enlist the ne
gmes as soldiers.' .Irideed, We are, informed,
from official sources;-that one General in
the army has already organized a full reg
iment' of negroes. IWe forbear to discuss
the question, whether *such soldiers (?)
are not a burlesquOtipon the name, and
whether (lathing and arming negroes as
such, beside the waste of clothes, arms,
and.othei supplies, is not exposing us to
defeat in haute, from the clearly establish
ed tact, that the negro. is utterly dis
. qualified by nature to•saind the; musketry
and artillery' fire-not to- speak of the
bayonet charge—of, modern I warfare.
The subject has infinitely greater propor
tions When .regarded in its cfrept =tot tlis

no other thoroughly loyal. party in the
