the attempt to enforce the regulations against smuggling in violation of these laws, which so roused the patriotism of New England, had not perceptibly affected them. The Stamp Act and the tax on tea had not pressed upon them. In fact, they probabent in themselves or had too much contempt for their opponents to act with moderation or policy. As the dissenters of New England had the reputation of having excited the war, dissenters generally became objects of odium to the enemy. Hence theirth August. In this battle Colonel Dixon Barnes greatly distinguished himself. It was the Twelfth which drove out the New England brigade, which, under Grover, had penetrated our lines by a charge second only to that of Pickett's division at Gettysox, a starving skeleton, with scarce blood enough left to stain the swords of our conquerors; our surrender was not to New England, but to death! It was on the wives and children of these men that Sherman warred. In American histories Tarleto

Of the other 10, 3 belonged to Baltimore, 4 to Norfolk, 2 to Sweden, 1 to France. I say the same number (61) claimed to belong to Charleston as avowedly belonged to New England, and, in using this expression, I, of course, mean to express my doubt if they did.

On the same subject on February 22, 1845, it resolved, * * * and as the powers of legislation granted in the Constitution of the United States to Congress do not embrace the case of the admission of a foreign State or foreign territory by legislation into the Union, such act of admission would have no binding force whatever on the people of Massachusetts. Here we have the unequivocal assertion of the right to secede. In 1814, on the call of Massachusetts, several of the New England States met in convention in Hartford and promulgated the following: It is as much the duty of State authorities to watch over the rights reserved, as of the United States to exercise the powers which are delegated.
