who, we hear, have threatened to make a “coat” for the man who has, by his imbecility, involved us in one of the most dreadful wars the world has ever seen — the man who now offers to “sustain,” yet sustained nothing but the designs of the rebels when he could have sustained the majesty of Law — who said, that if States wished to secede, no one could prevent it, while knowing that the Constitution distinctly says, “The Union of these States is perpetual” --the man who permitted the laws to be defied and the flag of his country to be disgraced without raising a hand to rebuke or prevent either outrage.--N. Y. Times, April 24.
