VANCE, Governor of the State of North Carolina, do issue this my Proclamation, commanding jajl such per son to renounce such eril inteulions, and warning them to beware ofjthe criiunal and itatal conse qurncadf carrving such thr-rAt into execution. The inalienal'le and invaluable riJit of the fvnj ple to, assemble together and con5ult or the com mon good, together with its necesiiy concomitants,- the-freedom of speech and the press, 'are; secured to you. my countrymen, by the mo.t sari;d compa ct. ; They shall never ! find & dis turber in me. Yet you will remember that the same instruments ' which guarantee these great rights, also limit you to the exercise of: them, with in the. bounds of law, and impose' upon me the solemn dutv of . seeing that these bounds be hot transgressed The Constitution of the Confederate. States, and all laws passed in pursuance thereof, are the supreme law ofthe land ;. resistance to them ..by, combrVatjion,, is treason, and without cOtubina- "tion, is a high crime againit.the laws ofyour coun try. ' Let no one be deceived. So long as these laws remain upon .the statute book they shall be executed. Surely, my countrymen,! lyou would not seek to cure the evils of one revolution bv plugging the .country: into another.: You will not knowingly, to the present "dei'olatine. war with the eoiumOn enemy, add the horrors ofnter- J nal strife and entire subversion or law anq! civil authority! You must not forget the enviable character which you have always maintained, as a sijber. conservative and law-abiding people, nor, would I have you to forget tho plain, easy and . coiwtitiUitiHol method of redressing your griev ances. Meet arid denounce asv rxLting laws you jthink proper you hav that ripht and in stiuct Vour rtprest atives in Congress cr the State Legislature, as the cise 'may be, to repeal them. Your own chosen servants made those obnoxious laws ihey can repeal them, if! such are your instructions. If f on regard them as unconsti tutional, our Supreme Court sits ready Jto decide upon -all cases-j properly broug'ht before it. 1 1 a decisions are final in tii State of North Carolina, arid shall be .executed while tho power remains in your Executive to enforce any law. Tbcre is no grievance to redress an 1 no proposition to be made, i'-bujt can be . most, beneficially effected 'in the way our fathers marked put by the bailot;Wix, and the other constitutionally appointed mrans In times of great public sensibility 1 iko the present, any doparture froift this legal channel is revolutiona ry ani dangerous, an J tends to the division and detraction of oar people. It is my great desire, and, I "hope, that of all good citizen.-, that oltr people should remain united, befall us tfhat may. Should we triumph in the : great struggle f r independence let no feelings. of revenge, ho bitterness' mar the rejoicings of that gloricmslay. Should we fall, and come short of ' that great object for which we have struguh-d so Ions and- bleo so freely, let not our strifes arid e domestic feuds add to jhe bitterness of defeat. Attempts suddenly to change the existing or der of things would only result in bloodshed and ruin. 1 therefore implore you my. countrymen, of all shades of political opinion, to aiit;iri from assembling tgeUier lor toe purpose oi enoun crng each other, wlitiii'r at home or in the, ar my, and to h'void- seeking auy remedy for the evils ofthe times by. othor--than i?gal means, and through thi- properly constituted aathn ities.--We are embarked m the holiest of all causes whicli can stir the hearts of. patriots the : cause of liberty arid independence.
