To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From all but the darkest regions of tlie civilized world, this portentous phan- tom has been banished, as it would appear, only to find refucre in that which professes to be the most free and enlightened. There is not a European icriter, or statesman, or theologisf, of any estab- lished reputation, that would noio venture to proclaim the slavish principles which have been asserted by Republican leaders in the Halls of Congress of Republican States. A thorough discussion of this doctrine of pass...ive obedience and non-resistance on the part of equal members of a Confedera- tion of States, would require more space than is proper for me to occupy, and more time than you can s])Hre on this occasion; nor do I deem it necessary. The right of resistance by force, as respects States and communities, is only an extension of the individual right of self-defence, which is a law of nature, ante- cedent and paramount to all laws and all constitutions, winch cannot be alienated or surrendered by the adoption of any system of social organization.
