this man or that riiari Those win nn-
-lei.stand atitl believe :t: those principles,
no matter from what standpoint they
look at them, will find themselves invol
untarily, and imperceptibly it may be,
but smely c-uning together in all great
stniggles that may lake place in regard
to them; while those who disclaim them,
who are willing to i epndiate them, am!
set them at naught, will be found disin
tegrating ami traveling in a divergent di-
Ki ti n. For ibis reason there may be
many now coming together without anv
previous concert or arrangement, but im
perceptibly, because they agree on the
same gn at pvineiplcs 1 think, gentle
men, there is m\ one who can mistake the
: great cardinal principles that are laid
down in that message. They eompre-
Iii ikI ami embrace the principles upon
which the Government rests, am! upon
which, to be successful, it must Lm admin-
isleied. I cate not by what name the

be <leii"!niii.ali -I the ’ nioii parly, the lie-
publican patty, the Democratic party, or
vvh.it not no party can administer the

ministered upon the gloat principles tail
down in that paper 7 mi would meet
with about the same success in attempt

those new State governments be founded
