culty of an amicable a-ljustmcnt.is with the

I he 1 eace Congress was another means
by which the border States strove to avert
the impending strife. How the Republi
can leaders then conspired against the
peace of their country may be seen in a
letter from Senator Chandler, of Michi
gan, to the Governor of that State :
" To his Excellency, Justin. Blair:
"Governor Bingham and myself tele
graphed you en Saturday, at the request of
Massachusetts and Ne-.v York, to send dele
gates to the Peace or Gmproinise Congress.
They admit that we were right and that
they were wront,; that no Republican
State ihould have sent delegates ; but they
are here and caunot get away. Ohio, Indi
ana and Rhode Isl.tnd are caving in, and
there is danget of Illinois; and now they
beg us for God's saVe to come to their res
cue, and save the Republican party from
rupture. I hopt? you will send stiff-backed
nieu or none. 1 he whole thing was gotten
up against my judgment and advice, and
will end in smoke. Siill I hope as a matter
of courtesy to some of our erring brethren
that you will send the delegates.
Truly, your friend,

Without a little blood-letting this Union

Washington, Feb. 11. 18tfl."
In I'ennsylvama, too, the same spirit
prevailed. It was not seen how necessa
rily her position united her interest with
the border States. She has learned it
since, from contending: armies trampling
out her harvests and deluging her fields
with blood. Governor Curtin sent to the
Peace Congress Mr. Wilmot and Mr.
Meredith.
Mr. Wilmot was chiefly known from
the connection of his name with the at
tempt to embroil the country by the

The Abolitionists deprecate these
allusions to the past. To cover up their
own tracks, they invite us to spend all
our indignation upon " Southern traitors;"
but truth compels us to add, that, in the
race of treason, the Northern traitors to
the Constitution had the start. They tell
us that slavery was the cause of the war;
therefore, the Union is to be restored by
waging a war upon slavery. This is not
true ; or only true in the sense that any
institution, civil or religious, may be a
cause of war, if war is made upon it.
Nor is it a just conclusion that if you take
from your neighbor his man-servant or
his maid, or anything that is his." you
will thus establish harmony between you.
No danger to the Union arose from sla
very whilst the people of each State dealt
calmly and intelligently with the question
within their own State limits. Where
little importance attached to it, it soon
yielded to moral and economical consider
ations, leaving the negro in a position of
social and political subordination no where
more clearly marked than in the Consti
tution and laws of Pennsylvania. The
strife began when people in States where
it was an immaterial question undertook
to prescribe the course of duty upon it to
States in which it was a question of great
importance and difficulty. This interfe
rence became more dangerous when at
tempts were made to use the power of the
General Government, instituted for the
benefit of all the States, to injury and
iroscriniion of some of the States. It
was not merely a aanger to me insti
tution of slav.ry, but to our whole K-
itical system, in which separate and dis-
uict colonies became, by the Declaration
of Independence, " free and independent
States," and afterwards established , a
Federal Union under the Constitution ot
the United States. That instrument,
with scrupulous care, discriminates the
powers delegated to the General Govern
ment from those reserved " to the States
respectively, or to the people." And let
it be noted, that in speaking of the jowers
so delegated and reserved, we refer to no
the mercy of new functionaries called
" provost marshals." Secret accusation

men of the South had controlled, witl
little difficulty, the small but restless class
amonir them who desired a separate na
tionality. The substantial interests of
the South, especially the slaveholding in
terest, were drawn reluctantly into seces
sion. Gen. . 1. I5)air ot Missouri, an
eminent Republican, said very truly, in
I f m -
the last Congress :
Everv man acquainted with the fact
knows that it is frlacious to call this
slaveholders ' rebellion ?
closer scrutiuy demonstrates the contrary to
be true ; Biich a scrutiny ue'monstrittes that
the rebellion originated chiefly with the
non-slaveholders resident in the strongholds
of the institution, not springing, however,
from any love of slavery, but from an an
ifri.;vm of men and hostility to the idea of

trial of - a private citizen lor his political
opinions before a court-martial, ending in
the infliction of a new and outrageous
penalty, invented by the President of the
United States. We need not comment
upon acts like these. Tbe President of
the United States has no authority, in
time of peace or war to try, even an enlist
ed soldier by court-martial, save by virtue
and in strict conformity with the military
law laid down in the act of Congress " es

ment of the armies of the United States."

citizens amenable to military courts. I Ie

needed to keep them above or equal with
the white race in the Southern States.
Peace has no place in this platform. It
proclaims Confiscation and Abolition as
the objects of the war, and the Southern
leader catches up the words to stimulate
Jiis followers to fight to the last. It is
not the interest of Pennsylvania that a
fanatical faction shall pervert and protract
the war, for ruinous, perhaps unattainable
ends. What the North needs is the re
turn of the South with its people, its ter
ritory, its staples, to complete the integri
ty of our common country. This, and
not more devastation and social confusion;
would be the aim of patriots and states
men. The Abolition policy promises us
nothing better than a Southern Poland,
ruled by a Northern despotism. Rut his
tory is full of examples how wise rulers
have assuasred civil dit-cord by moderation
and justice, while bigots and despots, re
lying solely on force, have been bafiled by
feeble opjxinents. 1 hat a temperate Con
stitutional policy will fail, in our case, to
reap the fruit of success in arms cannot
be known until it is tried. The times are
critical. France, under a powerful and
ambitious monarch, is entering on the
scene, willing again to play an important
part in an American Revolution. The
Enili.-h Government is hostile to us it
has got all it wanted from Abolition, and
vaue doctrines or pretentions, but to the
clear provisions of the written instrument
which it is the duty of every citizen, and
especially of every public functionary, to
respect and maintain. 1 lie protection oi ,
American liberty against the encroach- ,
ments of centralization was left to the
States by the fraaiers of the Constitution.
Hamilton, the most indulgent ot them to
Federal power, says: "It may lc safely
received as an axiom in our political sys
tem, that the State Governments will, in
all possible contingencies, afford complete
security against invasions of public liberty
by the national authority." Who can be
blind to the consequences that have followed
the departure from the true principles of
our Government? "Abolition" vies
with " secession" in sappin
foundations of the structure
our forefathers. In Pennsylvania, the
nartv on whose acts you will pass at the
- -
" hearty commendation " of the Conven
tion that renominated Governor Curtin :
and it pledged him and his party to
" hearty co-operation" in such acts of the
Administration in the future. Such is the
degrading platform on which a candidate
for Chief Magistrate of Pennsylvania
stands before her people. These preten
sions to arbitrary power give ominous
significance to a late change in our mili
tary establishment. The time-honored
American system of calling on the States
for drafts from their militia, has been re
placed by a Federal conscription on the
model of European despotisms. We
would not, minister to the excitement
which it has caused among men of all
parties. Its constitutionality will be
tested Ix'fore the courts. If adjudged to
be within the power of Congress, the
people will decide on the propriety of a
stretch of power, on

at the polls,and the next Congress will
not be deaf to the voice of the people.
For all political evils, a" constitutional
remedy yet remains in the ballot box.
We will not entertain a fear that it is not

people of Pennsylvania the right' of suf-
tional relations with the people of the
North. Early in the contest this desire
was shown in North Carolina, one of the
old Thirteen associated with Pennsylva
nia, on the page of Revolutionary history.
Rut the majority in Congress made haste
to show that Abolition, not Re-union,

ed by Crittenden, defining a policy for the
restoration of the Union. Rut they soon
' rallied and filled the Statute iooks with
acts of confiscation, abolition anil emanci
pation, against the remonstrances af emi
nent jurists and conservative men of all
parties. Mr. Lincoln, too, yielding, he
said, " to pressure," put his proclama
tions in place of the Constitution and the
laws. Thus every interest and sentiment
which the Rritih I ot the oiithern people were enlisted on
omnipotent has ! the side of resistance by the policy of a
pie of the South. It would not be a ppe
cious offer of politicians, to be observed
with no better faith than the resolutions
of July, '61 It would be a return to
the national policy of the better days of
the Republic, through the intelligence of
the people, enlightened by experience. It
would strengthen the Government ; for a
constitutional government is strong when
exercising with vigor its legitimate jowers,
and is weak when it sets sin example of re
volutionary violence, by invading the rights
of the people. Our principles and our
candidates are known to you. The resolu
tions of the late Convention at llarria
burg were, with some additions, the same
that had been adopted by the Democracy
in several State?, and by the General As
sembly of Pennsylvania. They declare
authoritively the principles of the Demo
cratic party. It is, as it always has been
for the Union and the Constitution against
all opposers. The twelfth resolution de
clares " that while this General Assembly
condemns and denounces the faults of the
Administration, and the encroachments of
the Abolitionists, it does also most thor
oughly condemn and denounce the heresy
of secession, as unwarranted by the Con
tention, ai d destructive alike of the se
curity and perpetuity of government, and
of the peace and liberty of the people,
and it docs hveby most solemnly declares
that the people of this State are unaltera
bly opposed to any division of the Union,
and will persistently exert their whole in
fluence and power under the Constitution
to maintain and defend it."
We have re-nominated Chief Justice
Lowrie for the liench whieh he adorn".
Our candidate for Governor, Judge Wood
ward, in his public and private diameter,
affords the best assurance that he will
bring honesty, capacity, firmness and pa
triotism to the direction of the affairs of
the Commonwealth. Long withdrawn
by judicial functions, from the political
arena, he did not withhold his warning
voice when conservative men took counsel
together upon the dangers that menaced
our country. His fpoech at the town
meeting at Philadelphia, in December,
18GO, has lcen vindicated by subsequent
events, as a signal exhibition of states
manlike sagacity.
Under his administration, wc may hope
that Pennsylvania, with God's blessin"-.
will resume her place as "the Keystono
of the Federal Arch."

the South. The John Rrown raid was
taken as a practical exposition of the
doctrine of " irrepressible conflict." The
exultation over its momentary success,
the lamentation over its failure, had been
swelled by the Abolitionists, so as to seem
a general expression of Northern feeling.
Riots and rescues had nulitied the consti
tutional provision for the return of fu-
eitives. The false pretence that slavery
would monopolize the territories in which
it could exist, had been used as a means
of constant agitation, against slavery in
the Southren States. A plan of at
tack upon it had been published in "Hel

commended by the leaders of the party
that was about to assume the Administra
tion of the Federal Government leaders
who openly inculcated contempt for the
Constitution, contempt for the Supreme
Court, and professed to follow a 44 higher
