To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is just as much "brawling to-day about the inviolability of habeas corpus as there was before the action of Congress. The Copperhead dema- gogues habitually rant just as if there was no clause in the Constitution providing for the suspension of writ " in cases of insurrection and invasion. " Now, if this balderdash were confined to such windbags as figured at the Union Square meeting the other evening, it would not be worth noticing. But the editors of public journals, who ought to know b...etter, con3tantly indulge in the same wretched charlatanry. Their readers are daily told that the suspension of the habeas corpus is a most intolerable |iiece of tyranny, which no other peojdc making the least pretension to constitu- tional freedom would endure for a moment. Charity would impute this to ignorance; but, if ignorance, it is of the very grossest description. For the benefit of the people, who talk BO much and know so little of Magna Charta, we propose to devote a little space, this morning, to the manner in which England, the native land of Magna Charta^ deals with a rebel- lion.
