" "No matter. " he says, -what may be the character of the government resisted ; no matter with what weight the foot of the oppressor bears on the neck of the op- pressed ; if he struggles or if he complains, he sets a dangerous example of resistance, and from that moment he becomes an object of hostility to the most powerful potentates of the earth. I want words to express my abhorrence of this abominable principle. " Mr. Webster pursues this strain of lofty eloquence in vindication of the rig...hts of the people of every nation to govern themselves, at great length, and concludes this part of the subject with these emphatic words: " If the authority of all these governments be hereaf- ter to be mixed and blended, and to iiow in one augmen- ted current of prerogative over the face of Europe, sweeping away all resistance in its course, it will yet re- main for us to secure our own happiness by the preser- vation of our own principles; which I hope we shall have the manliness to express on all proper occasions and the spirit to defend in every extremity.
