Their judgment and decision will form the guide of our faith and lha rule of our conduct; and to that tribunal alone can we look for any euthorissd response to tbe friendly counsels end suggestions of our feitow-suffering sister State. But, without rater*no* to the amount of our sympathy or the extent of our codpsra- tion with her In her present struggle, we, et least, will assure her that no hostile foot shall ever march from, or through ou iborders to as sail her or hers.” (Cheers.)
