They propose to leave you no such advantage: They propose to take your government into their own hands. They have grown wiser. If they can once get control of the Government they will rule with relentless hand, and make you pay back, with interest, all that they lost by the war. How are you to help it ? Do you point to the constitutional amendments? They proclaim them " void. " It is well known that each man has kept a list of the number and value of his slaves. With President and Congress in t...heir interest, they can pass a law for the payment of their claims. The Secretary of the Treasury pays it in obedience to law (I do not mean Secretary Sherman). What could you do about it? Bring it before the Supreme Court ? But where would the money go meanwhile ? And who would enforce the mandate of the Court, if you get one? Armed governments never trouble themselves about mandates of a Court, if they don t like the mandate. A pair of Confederate soldiers would take care of the Court if it stood in the way.
