Lbut decidedly. to the same conclusion as ' beford. He also stnted. at the same time. that i no such sufficient force was then at the control of the government. or e‘ould he raised and I brought to the ground within the time when the , provisions infthe fort would be exhausted. In : a purely military point of view this reduced the l duty of the Administration, in the case, to the! mere matter of getting the garrison safely out ' of the fort. It washelievetl. however. that to’ janandon that position. under‘ the circumstan-l ces. would be utterly ruinous; that the neces sity under which it was to be done would not be fully understood: that by many it Vmuld bet construed nsm part of a voluntary policy; that : at home it would discourage the friends of the | Bniorf, embolden its adversaries, flntl‘ go far to insure to the latter a recognition nhroad : that, I in fact, it would be our national destruction ' consummated. This could not he hllowcd.- . Starvation was not yet upon the garrison, and ‘; are it would be reached. l-‘nrt l’ickens might he A reinforced. This last would he a clear indicn- 5 tion of policy. and Would better enable the ' country to accept the evacuation of Fort Sumter 1‘ M a. military necessity. An order was at once i directed to he sent for the landing of the troops. from the steamship Brooklyn into Fort Pickens. l Thih 0 er could not go by land, but. must tokel the in r and slower route by.sca. The first 3 return news from the order “as received just i one week before the fall of Sumter. The news I itself was that thc oflicer commanding the Sn bine, to which vessel the troops had been trons ] ferred from the Brooklyn, acting upon some quasi-armistice of<the late administration, and of the cxistence of which the present adminis. tration..up to the time the order was dispatched, had only too vague and uncertain rumors to fix attention, had refused to land the troops. To I now reinforce Fort Pickens, before a cu‘sis would be reached at Fort Sumter, was impossi- . ble, rendered in by the near exhaustion ot pro visions in the latter named fort. ln precaution] against such a conjuncture the government had i It. few days before commenced preparing an ex pedition, as Well adapted as might be. to re lieve Fort Sumter. which expedition WM intcn ded to be ultimately used, or not, according to circumstances. The strongest anticipated case for using it was now presented, and it was re solved tosend it. forward, as had been intended. In this contingency it was also resolved to noti~ .fy the governor of South Carolina that he might expect an attempt would be made to provision the fort. and that if the attempt should not. be resisted. there would be no efiort to throw in men, arms or ammunition, without further no tice, or in case of an attack upon the fort.— Th'ts-notice was accordingly given, whereupon the fort was attacked and bombsrdod'to its fall, without even awaiting the arrival of the provis ioning expedition. It is thus seen that the assault upon and re dnction of Fort Sumter was in no sense a mat ter of self-defence on the part of thensmiilants. They well knew that the garrison in the fort could, by no possibility, commit aggression upon them; they knew, they were expressly notified, that the giving of bread to the few brave and hungry men of the garrison was all which would on that occasion he attempted, unless themselves, b resisting so much, should provoke more.— I‘hey knew that this governmentduirod takes]; the garrisonju the fort; not toasaoil‘ them,but merely to maintain visible possession, and thus 1 ) ‘ 'rw'p DOLLARS AIYEAR to preserve the Union from actual amt immedi ate dissolution, trusting, as licrr-iuhefore stated. totime. discussion, and the lmllotdxox for final adjustment, and they assailed and redmed the fort for precisely the revcrut-ohi‘ect. to tlli\(‘ out i the visible authority of the federal Union. and ‘ thus force it to immediate dissolution. That this was their object the Executive well under stood, and having said tothcm in the inaugural addreu: “Yin m have no enntiict without he— ing yourselves the' aggro-more," he took pains, l not only to keep this declaration [mm]. but also ‘ to keep the caseso‘far from ingenious Hophistry In that the world should not misunderstand it. By the afi'nir at Fort Sumter. with its surround ing circumstances. that point was reached,— Then and thereby the assaiiauts ofthe govern ment hogan the conflict of arms, without agun in sight, or in Expectancypw return their tire, nve only the few in the fort. sent to that harv hor years before fir their own protection. and still ready to give that. protection in whatever was lawful. 2 in thit act. discarding all else, they have forced upont ' country th:\tlistiltct issuer immediate dissolut nor blood; and this issue embraces more th n the fate Oh these United States.

A convention. elected by the people of that state to cnusiderthis very question of disrupting the federal Fnion. was in session at. the capital of (Virginia when Fort Sumter fell. 'l'n lhi‘s'hmly the people had cho sen a large majority: of professed Union men Almont. immediately after the fall of Sumter many members ‘f that majority went over to the original dimini‘qn minority. and'with them adopted an ordinenq‘g for withdrawing the State from the Union.‘ 4‘ hether this chmgé was. wrought by theit’ nut approyal of the assault upon Sumter or their great q'xsentmcnt at the government‘s resistrnee to that assault. in not definitely known. it Although they submitted the ordinance for iatitioation to a vote of the! mple. to he tutu-ti on a day then somewhat‘ more than a monthtidietant, the. convention and the Legislaturet which was also in version at the same time ‘and lace. with the leading men 0T the state. not m' hers of either, immediato- ‘ ly commenced actirttr as if the state was already out of the Union.

The people of Virginia liave thus allowed th' giant 3 nsurroction to makeits nt-at within her galore, and this government has no choice left it to ‘ deal with it where it finds it: and it has the lens to regret. as the loyal citizens have in due farm claimed‘its protection. Those loyal citil l :enstliis government is hound to recognize and protect a.- heing in Virginia. in the’ border States.m-called. in fact the middle States, there arethose who favor a policy which they call armed neutrality.

It recognizes no.titlelity to the (‘onstitu— tion: no obligation to maintain the Union: and 1 while verymany who have favored it are, douht- ‘ lees. loyal citizens. it is neverthele‘xs very injuri~ 1 ousiu efi'ect. Recurring to‘ the action of the l government. it may be stated that first a call l was made for 75.000 militia, and rapidly follow- l ing this. a proclamation was issued for closing 1 the port: of the insurrectionnry districts. by pro ceedings in the nature of hlockade. So far, all t Wm: believed to be strictly legal. 1 At this point the insurrectionists announo- : ed their purpose to enter upon the practice of ‘ privateerinz. l Other calls were made for volunteers to serve three years unless sooner discharged. and also for large additions to the regular army and navy. These measures. whether strictly iegnl or not, were ventured upon un der what appeared to he a popular demand and a public necessity. trusting then, as now, that. Congress would readily ratify them.— lt is believed that nothing has been done be yond the constitutional competency of Con gress. Soon after the first. call for militia it; was considered a duty to authorize the com “landing general, in proper cases, according to his discretion, to suspend the privilege of the writ ofhabeas corpus,- or, in other words, to arrest and detain.without resort to the or dinary processes and terms ot‘law, such in dividuals as he might deem dangerous to the mic safety. This authority has purposely exercised but "it! sparingly. ever theless the legality an propriety of what has been done under it are questioned, and the attention ofthe coun:ry has been called to the proposition that one who is sworn to take care that the laws be fnithfully executed, should not himself violate them. Of course some consideration was given to the question of power and propriety before this matter was actedupon. The whole of the laws which were required to be faithfully executed were boinf resisted. and failing of execution, in near y one-third of the states. Must they be allowed to finally fail of execution, even had it been perfectly clear that by use of the i moons neeesssry to their execution, some ’ single law made in ouch extreme tenderness of the citisen’s liberty, thot practice", it re lieves more 0! the guilty than the innocent. should to a very limited extent be violated? To state the question more directly, are all the laws but- one to go unexeeuted, and the government itself to go to pieces lest that one be violated? Even in such a case would not the ufliviul Oath be broken if the government should beeverthrown, when it WM believed that disregarding the single law would tend ti preserve it. But it was not believed that this question was presented. It was not hr lieved thut any law was violated. The to visiqp of the Constitution that the priviflge of the writ of habeza corpus shell not be sus pended, unless when in cases of rebellion 9? tnvnsion the public safety may require it, is equivalent to a provision that such privilege may be suspended when in case of rebellion, i or Invasion. the public safety does requireit? ’ It was decided th.tt we have a case of rebel ‘ hou. and that the public safety does require ‘ the qtmlified suspension of the privilege of the unit. which was authorized to be made. Now it is insisted that Congress and not the executive, is vested with this power. But ’ the Conetitntion itself is silent us to which E or who is to exercise the power, and no the ‘ provision was plainly mode for a dangerous 3 emergency. it cannot be believed that the ‘ framers of the instrument intendEd that inn 3 cverv case the dJngnr should run its come until Congress could be called together, the vcry assembling ofwhich might be Drew-"ted, ns wns intended in this case by the rebellion. No more extended argument is now afi'ort’od,~ no on opinion at some length will prolinhly bepresentedhy theattorncv-penerol. Whith er there shall be any legislation on, the sub ject. nnd it‘ so. what, is submitted entirely to the better judgment of Congress. The for bearance of this novemment hnd been so ex traordinary and no long continued as to lend, some foreign notions to shape their octionlae it‘they mopoeed the enrly destruotion of it" notional Union was prnbnble. While t is, ,on discovery. gave the executive some concern, he is now happy to env that the sovereignty and rights ofthe United States on now’evtgry ‘where ‘rmctieaily respected by foreign p. 31- ertl, an a general sympathy with the walk" is manifest throughout the world. _ ’ , No_ 44. l The reports of the Secretaries of thn'l'rea fury.

It is now recommended that you give the legal means for making this content 1 short and a dhcisive one : that you place at the control of thé Government. for the work. at. least. four hundred thousand men and four hundred millions of dollars. That number of men is about one~topth of those of proper ,aaes‘ within the regions where, nEpnrt-ntly‘, allure willing to engage; and t a sum is less thou-n twenty-third port of the money vnlueon’ned By the men who a? ready to devote the whole. A debt of ix hundred millions of dollars now. is a less sum per head then was the debt of our Revolution when we came out of that struggle : and the money value in the country now bars even ‘5 pronter proportion to what it. was thin than does the population. Surely. each mun has as strong a motive now to prnrn'l' out liber ties as each had Men to establish them. ‘ A right result. at this time, will be worth »‘more to'the world than ten times the men and ten times the money. The evidence reaching us from the codntry leaves no doubt. that the material. for the wort: is abundant ; and that it needs only the hand of legislation to give it legal sanction. and ‘ thehand of the Executive to give it practi: cal shape and efficiency.

At‘the begin ning they knew they could never raise their treason to any respectable nmgnitude'hy Inny'nnme which- impliea violation of law."— 1 They knew their people possesred as much ;ot' more! some, as much of devotion to law ;_and order, and as much pride in and revolt lence for the historyxand Govemment of their commo‘n country as any other civiliz ‘ed and patriotic people. They knew they, could make no odvanccmentdirectly in the‘ teeth of them strong and noble sentiments. Accordingly they commenced by an insidi ous debauching of the public mind. "They invented an ingenious aophism. which;if conceded. was followed by perfectly logical steps. through all the incidents, to tho mtnplcte destruction of the Union. .'l‘ho mphism itself is. that any State of the U nion may, comment/y with the national Con stitution, and therefore lawfully/and [imagini '/y, withdraw from the Union withoutilho consent of the Union or of any other State. The little disguise that the “suppoeed right is to be exercised only forjust came, them selves to be the sole judge of its justice, is j toothin to meritany notice. ‘ With rebellion thus sugar-mated, they 1 have been di-ugging the public mind of their section for more than thirty yearn: and until at length they have brought} many good men to a willingneaq to info up i nrnN against the Government. the day afh'r } some assemblage of men have emu-ted the 1 farcical pretence of taking: their State out 1 of lilt‘ Union who could have been brought 3 to no such thing the day bqforc. ‘- , This sophi<ni derives much, perhapn the 1 whole, ofits currency from the aunmption that there is some omnipotent nnd sacred i supremacy pertaining to a Stale—‘in each State of our Federal Union.
