render their equality and sovereignty and transfer to a central government the powers and rights which in all previous history had been so carefully maintained? This is the crucial question determining the right of the Southern States in 1860 and 1861 to secede from the Union and to establish for their own defense and welfare a new federal union. Obviously this question should be approached and considered and decided. not by prejudice, or passion or sectionalism, or interest, or expediency, ojudicial and historical authorities concede that the Union would never have been formed without these compacts of guarantee and protection.

In 1844 they saw a mode of maintaining the equipoise of the government in the admission of Texas, and they eagerly seized it. T the slavery agitation, ignoring the testimony of history and the deductions of logic, grew as a national sentiment. In 1861, the Southern people realized that their equality in the Union was lost, that their domestic institutions were threatened, and was followed in 1867 by the acquisition of Alaska Shall we assign to the chronological sequence between the war of 1861-65 and the acquisition of Alaska the logical relation of cause and effect? It was certainly not an accidental coincidence
