To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have seen the pride of that haughty foe humbled by the victorious arms of the republic. We have seen our wrongs avenged ; our rights vindicated, and our national character exalted ; all by the i "general government. And seeing all this, we have rejoiced that it is the government of our choice. On the other hand, we have been in- volved in great embarrassments by the refractory and unconstitu- tional proceedings of some of the states. In the very war which raised 0^ the character of the gener...al government so much in the coafidence and affections of the people, the refusal of the Governor of one of the Eas- tern States to obey the call of the President, threatened to throw the country into the most alarming condition, and to paralyze the very arm to which we all looked for protection. Rest assured, then, the gene- ral government is not an object of dread. Our ancestors did not create it to be an object of terror to the people, but " to secure the blessings of liberty to themselves and their posterity.
