What then it our object? It is to restore the
Consliiution, which has been violated and con

training the erratic and arbitrary career of n e
majority and by procuring, if possible, the taint
abandonment of the restrictive and Interna Im-

gross infractions of that instrumei t, but as utter

.Southern States. It is to burnish and pernetuae
the claim of the union, by removing the abuke.
which disfigure and corrode it. It is, in Short.
by a proper recurrence to first principles to des;
troy the system of inequali y and robbery which
