Mr. McClure's announcement of his
topic, "The Lesson of Our Civil War,"
ereated a perceptible shudder among
the older visitors, but it at once riveted
the attention of the students: to whom it
was specially addressed. He com
menced by saying that his words were
for the next generation and not for the
generation that witnessed the struggle
and shared the sacrifices of the war, and
he then gave an exhaustive review of
the cause of the war. He showed that
the war was not fought for or against slav
ery, but for or against the sovereignty
of the nation, as disputed by the sover
eignty of the Bute. He said that the
issue was created by Washington and
Jefferson, hut neither was able to en
trench his views of National or State
sovereignty on the constitution, and it
was left to construction, where
upon Washington and Hamilton con
strued it as establishing the Bupreme
sovereignty of the nation, while Jeffer
son and Madison construed it by the
resolutions of 1798 as establishing the
supreme sovereignty of the State, even
to the extent of judgingjof all infractions
and nullifying any laws. The slavery dis
pute over Missouri of 1820; the Con
necticut Hartford convention against the
war of 1812; the South Carolina tariff
nullification of 1831; the Pennsylvania
Whisky rebellion; the Kansas-Nebraska
dispute; the Dred Scott decision, and
finally the resort to war when slavery
was not assailed or threatened in any
State, were treated as the logical off
spring of the steadily enlarged construc
tion of the sovereignty of the State, and
rebellion was delayed in 1820, in 1831
and in lebu because the statesmen ot
those days imitated Washington and
Jefferson in framing the, constitution,
by compromising the dispute aud lea
mg to posterity the problem they oould
not solve.
TBI RJCAL JSSDB. '
Mr. McClure further illustr.ted the
real issue of national sovereignty as tbo
cause of the war, instead of slavery, as
is often thoughtlessly stated, by show
ing that there was not a day from the
secession of South Carolina until the 1st
of January, 1863, when the final eman
cipation proclamation was issued, when
the war could not have been ended by
submission to the authority of the Union
without abolishing slavery in any
State. He showed how President Lin
coln in his preliminary proclamation of
22d September, lBbz, gave more tnan
three months' notice that any State or
Dart of a iState. not in rebellion on the
1st of January, would be exempted
from the emancipation policy, and the
final proclamation exempted the States
of Missouri, Kentucky and Tennesee
and parts of Louisiana and Virginia.
He fully presented the policy of Lincoln
that would have ended the war-any day
after the 1st of January, 1863, by com
pensated emancipation; but that policy
was ended by the Confederate commis
sioners, who met Lincoln at Fortres
Monroe in February, 1865, coming with
instructions from Davis to entertain no
proposition of peace that ' did not em
brace the perpetuity of the Confeder
acy. After thus presenting the cause
of the war and the policy: on which it
was waged, Mr. MoClure said:
