To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A restoration of " the Union as it wab, " to use a cant phrase of the day, is not a possible thing. If it means a restoration with, slavery, then it will not be a Union of peace, prosperity, and liajipiness, but a Union of discord, hatred, and violence in the South which will sink it in barbarism. Can we hope for peace between the sections now at war, with slavery still existing? But if this were possible, how can it be expected that the rebels and htyal men of the South can live in peace in th...e future, the cause of the trouble — slavery — still in existence, the rebel masters more intolerant, jealous, and brutal than ever before, with arrogance increased by the victory which they will have achieved over the people and G'>vernment of the United States and the moral and political opinions of the civilized world ? I know well that there afe those who are impatient when "loyal men South" are mentioned in the consideration of these questions. Nevertheless, I insist most respectfully, but earnest- ly, that they are worthy of consideration because of their de- votion to liberty and thoir Government, because of their gacrifices and sufferings, and because they constitute the only future strength of the Government in the iSouth.
