been tame and uninteresting, for bolie\o
me. although I run answering argnnunfs
which, in mv opinion, tend direr iiv to a
rli>so!..tion of tbe Union, 1 am still impress
ed with tbe idea that all our sister statesaro
unmoved spectators of our cabals. Have
as we will, tbsv neither join or oppose us,
mile. *1 our nets correspond with our thren.'f
Then indeed wc might expect to feel i!io

was danger to be appreiieurled from tfie
’untngion of our example in oilier states, I
hould feel that the on asion demand/d all
tbo energies of the s< id, and all tbe stn tigtfr
of the aim of tbe patriot. Hut I have the
onsolntioti to believe that however we may
sink ourselves in the estimation of the wmi«L
we cannot in lire auiiport of this unholy
struggle render oursr ix i s formidable to ifio
government of the United .Suites.
