To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the President had desired to carry out the will of Congress according to his pledges, that officer could not have escaped punishment, for Congress at its last session positively refused to allow the people of California to do that which the military governor, by a military order or procla- tion, bearing striking analogies to an order, instructed them to do. Who are the people of California ? A world in miniature — the four quarters of the globe are represented there.

The whole proceeding — not having the consent of Congress, the rightful legislature of the territory — was illegal and revolutionary.

For no other reason than that slavery has been excluded by her constitution.
