he entire Yankee States loudly applaud the measures taken by the Lincoln Government to suppress freedom of speech and the press throughout Yankeedom. In proportion to the atrocity of each violation of liberty are the shouts of these slaves of despotism. The reader will barely be able to realize the fact that these people once had some idea that the liberty of the press was a great safeguard of personal liberty. Yet such is the fact. On the 18th of June, 1812, war was declared against Great Britain. On the 26th of July the office of the Federal Republican--a paper which violently opposed the war — was assailed and destroyed by a mob. The proprietors and some of their friends, who had at first designed to defend the promises, were induced by the authorities to forego that design, and surrendered themselves into the hands of the law. The jail in which they were confined for safety was immediately attacked and forced by the Lingas and Mr. Hanson were brutally murdered, and others we

Should the evil destiny of England lead her to take part against the Union in the present war, then, but not until then, will this invisible army, in which Corcoran holds a General's commission, swarm forth into daylight and activity, only asking arms and transport ships from our Government to give full employment within sight of the Welsh coast, to all the naval and military resources of Great Britain.

But is this all? The thirteen States which formed the original Union were each separate and independent colonies. On the 21 July, 1776, they declared that "they were, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, and the connection between them (the plural) and the State of Great Britain ought to be dissolved." The declarant voted by States, not by populations. By the Confederation of 1778, Article II. declares that "each State retains its sovereignty, freedom and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States." The Confederation of 1789 was instituted by voting by States; the Presidency of Lincoln is that of the majority of States, not of the majority of population. Can it be for
