To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They were accomplished. The Southern people were successfully deceived, and were ruined by the representatives whom they had chosen to guard their rights ! The man who plays the part of the mock-president at Richmond, at that time a Senator, with the oath of fealty to the Constitution yet fresh upon his tongue, was, as now appears by the letter of ^Senator Yulee, the principal conspirator of them all. Had he anything to gain by his treason ] You shall decide. It is in vain, therefore, that you ...strive to extenuate, upon the grounds you mention, the guilt of those who have made war upon the Government of their country. There are no doubt many sincere people at the South who support the rebellion. But they have been deceived, and in their de ception is the only palliation of their course. That decep tion will as assuredly be exposed, as that truth will 19 triumph over falsehood, and time expose the contrivances of the wicked. But the war for the Union and the Constitution, you say, cannot be successful, and you enumerate many difficul ties, some of which, I admit, are great.
