No motive of self interest can be ass:i ned
for this voluntary appeal to the people in
behalf of the Constitution and the Union ;
no object of perspnal adVancorcent or ag
grandisement can be laid to their cftargc
for the act. Had they bave consulted the
future in vio.v of their own well-being-they
must have pursued a course diamet-'
ric'ally opposite. At a. time, when the
popular current is sweeping-with resistless
force in one direction, the time serving,
the slavish, dnd the mercenary are the
first to throw themselves .-within " its influ
ence, and float. to power and place. They
watch each varying breeze and turn, their
sales to Catch its faintest breath. Self is
the God they! worship, and thty bow with
sipple knee at its unbply shrine. Not so
with men whose patriotism-1 rises superior
to personal considerations. They dre to
do right, tholugh immolation may follow,'
add thus wd j-egard the conduct of those
noble Democrats, who .have boldly jcorae

sentiment of the New Yorkjublic to throw
themselves 'in the breach, .to-breast thefury
