The sovereignty of one State separate — superior to that of all the States united, we cannot but regard as one of the most absurd doctrines which intelligent men have ever been called upon to discuss, and as treasonable as it is absurd. To attempt to prove that the Constitution of this Union embodies such a principle is to cast a reflection upon the common sense of its framers, if not to charge them with affecting to weave a bond of union among the States in appearance stronger than death, but ...in reality weaker than tow. When that ardent patriot and mighty statesman Webster lifted his majestic voice against the doctrine thirty years ago, he said, "The whole matter it is hoped will blow over, and men will return to a sound mode of thinking ; but of one thing be ye assured : the first step in the programme of secession, which shall be an infringe- ment of constitutional law, shall be promptly met ; I would not remain an hour in any administration that would not meet such attempts effectually and at once.
