They formally entered into a treaty of temporary alliance, and co-operation with the so-called "Confederate States, " and sent members to their Congress at Mont- gomery. And, finally, they permitted the insurrectionary government to be transferred to their capital at Richmond. The people of Virginia have thus allowed this giant insurrection to make its nest within her borders; and this government has no choice left but to deal with it where it finds it. And it has the less regret, as the loyal ...citizens have, in due form, claimed its protection. Those loyal citizens this government is bound to recognize, and protect, as being Virginia. In the border States, so called — in fact, the middle States — there are those who favor a policy which they call "armed neutrality:" that is, an arming of those States to prevent the Union forces passing one way, or the disunion the other, over their soil. This would be disunion com- pleted. Figuratively speaking, it would be the building of an impass- able wall along the line of separation — and yet, not quite an impassable one; for, under the guise of neutrality, it would tie the hands of the Union men, and freely pass supplies from among them to the insurrec- tionists, which it could not do as an open enemy.
