The President, to whom the defence of the Government and the com- mand of its armies belong, has labored to avert the dangers with which we are encompassed by various measures in aid of the armed forces he has sent to the field. He would save the Union with or without slavery — would save it in any way, at whatever cost. The Union in peace under the Constitution was again and again his overture. If there could be no assurance of this with rebels bent on subverting the republic to establish an o...ligarchy of slaveholders, then to the loyal friends of free government in the South he tendered emancipation with compensation and a deliver- ance by colonization from a war of races which could only end in the extermination of the negro race or amalgamation with it. This failing, after nearly two years of expostulation and forbearance to exert to the utmost the military power conferred on him under the Constitution, the President felt himself constrained to issue that Proclamation of freedom to the slaves, who were in every sense the enemy's sinews of war.
