Am I not fully sustained in the‘ulle gation,that the proclamation was a usurpa tion of powertnot warranted by the Con stitution and laws, by the offictnl declara tions of the President himself, as quoted above? But, for the sake of argument, suppose it be conceded that under the plea of ”Military neceseity " the President had the power to issue the proclamation, whnt practical good can result to either race from its exercise? For my life lounnot see how either can be benefitted, but, on the contrary, I can see nothing but “evil, and only evil. and that oontinunlly.”—— Why, sir, look at it for a single moment.— Here are some three or {our millions of un-3 fortunate bvings, thrown upon their own resources, many of them without sufficient intelligence to appreciate the blessings of i liberty, and wholly incapable of taking care ofithemselves.
