To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It does not sanction men in hurling their anathemas against the citizens of Massachusetts, because they seek to repeal a law which they beheve to be morally wrong, while, at the same time, they silently wink at the constant violation of constitutional obligations by a sister State. It cannot be denied, but that these violent demonstrations in favor of the supremacy of civil law, " in whatever event and at whatever cost, " come with rather an ill grace from men who are notorious for trampling un...der foot our usury laws, and the constitutional obliga- tions of one State towards the citizens of another ; who violate the post-office laws of the United States ; who offer rewards for free Northern citizens, that they may lynch them ; who imprison Northern seamen, and sell them into slavery. How can we respect the refined sensibility of such men ? How give them credit for integrity, when their regard for the Union goes no farther than to uphold a law in which their pride and self-interest are involved ?
