Returned, and they seared by the fires of revo- lution and scarred by the chains of their servitude. These dire calamities we may avoid, if we resolutely adhere to the limits of the Constitution. Let us appreciate the vast difiiculties Avith which the Administra- tion is called to struggle ; let us not judge harshly their errors ; let us accord them a generous confidence; but let us require them to grapple with the difiiculties according to law — forbid their recur- rence to discretionary devic...es — rigidly repel usurpation under any pretext, at any instigation, even that of the people themselves. Consistently with our Constitution there can be no such thing as martial law. Has the Constitution, then, omitted or excluded anything neces- sary to carry the Eepublio through this great crisis ? Let us turn to its arsenal, and survey its arms. We make the war in the name of the Constitution ; that Consti- tution provides that Congress shall guarantee to each State of the Union a republican form of government.
