To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They will endeavor to save all they can of the doctrine of State Supremacy for future use. In the permission for the return of the Rebel Legislature to Richmond, and in the Sherman- Johnston pacification, our government barely escaped a serious, if not a fatal political defeat, at the hands of a vanquished enemy. The purpose of the South now is to resume the exercise of State functions with the utmost possible speed, and with the least possible change in their home systems. To secure that, they... will do and submit to whatever is necessary. It must constantly be borne in mind that when once a State is admitted to its place, the power of the nation over all subjects of State cognizance is gone. If the dogma of State Supremacy is not destroyed, for practice as well as in theory, the war will have been in vain. It has not only been the favorite weapon of slavery, but has been eagerly caught up by the enemies of our institu- tions in Europe, — the tenet ^that the United States is not a nation, a government, a sove- reignty, — that the citizens owe to it no direct al- legiance, — that they cannot commit against it the crime of treason, if they carry with them into their treason the forms of State authority.
