Are the lessons of history, the experience of the past to be lost upon ns? Are we indeed ignorant and forgetful of the means by which we attained our prosperity and power? In the wake of disunion, not far in the distance, may be seen civil war, insurrection, foreign interference and conquest, anarchy and strife, culminating at last in military and political despotism. Wc have all the elements existing among us of these terrible national ills and it only needs the withdrawal of Federative Union from the scene to Listen them into fell and dreadful activity. The danger of collision arc to be found in that alienation of feeling which can alone overthrow the Government, in the questions which will arise as

to the disposition to be made of the common Territories and property belonging to the Union, acquired by its blood and treasure, in the navigation of its rivers and lakes, and in the treatment of its slave population. If the Cotton States withdraw from the Union, will tlicy abandon their claim to the Territories, the persisting in which has been one of the great causes of dissolution, and relinquish all their right and title to the immense domain? Will they assume their part of the national debt? How will they treat the persons and property of those who remain in the old Con

federation? How will our people, so long accustomed to free trade between the Siatc submit to the annoyances, vexaons ami expenses of restrictive tariffs,
