And this principle would not be without • upon the North, for it has many advocates here already. Men are as apt in learning lessons of evil as of good. One successful rebellion would become the parent of others. The theory of our government presupposes the existence of ■ us and diverse local interests, to be controlled by local governments. It is impossible for these interests not to be sometimes subordinated to the general welfare. Establish two confederacies, and the constant temptation woul...d be held out to States with similar local interests, fretting under imaginary grievances, or maddened by party spirit, to strike off from the parent State on the one hand, and form alii- - with similarly disaffected portions on the other. The interests of the Western and Southwestern States are quite connected by the waters of the Ohio, the Missis- sippi, and the Missouri, as the interests of either are with is upon the Atlantic seaboard, and would be quite as Likely to be formed, ultimately, into a third and independ- ent government as to remain united with the old.
