" Whole, apd I deprecate the effort that is here made to dissatisfy
our friends at the South with those measures while no1 remedy ds
pointed out for the evils, complained of. .1" think that we hive
jess cause for alarm or to despair of the Union on" the terms - of
the Constitution that when we discussed this delicate subject,
( in this)lace,:two years ago. Then we were threatened witii the
Wilmot Proviso, and had little hope of so favorable a law "for the
pro ection of slaves as that passed at last Congress, But happily
for the Country .there was found patriotism enpugh amongst the law
t abiding and Union loving portion of our Northern brethren, to give
up the one and pass the other. t ' .Though this was the least that we
had a right to demand, it was not then belie ved that it would-be
yielded. I confesi that this concession gave me renewed and
additional confidence in the Government, and ne w hope of main
'tainingthe Union. We have yet to see Avhetner itwill'bekept
r in good faith That must be' the turnih point. wilt hope for
1 the best; and while there is a hope of sustaining the Government
and Unioni as it'is, and of obtain'mgUhprtectien due us under
it, I will be found advocating it. . Ruweare' told that it will
not be-executed in good faithi i. Of ihisl thereieehisiiolbe some
