had eatablihed hie record, and he did not
deaire then to repeat it. He claimed that.
but for tha acta of the Aboü ion party, civil
war might have been everted, but he hid only two new things which he deeired to
dieue. First, the party in power, the Ad-
ministration, had refused to rn'"'
proportion for rtaioretlon of the Union
fff iheee Statee. Only a few weeks since.
the E-nperor of France tha miity na
tioa which, in daya gone by, had aiJ.-d ua in
the procurement of our independence- pro
posed by peaceable mediation to aettle thia
moat terrible internal difficulty in which
our country Is involved. DiJ the Adminis
tration accept the mediation? No. but ob.
stinately and wickedly refused to entertain
the proposition. On tbe 12th of last De.

the Constitution? "The right of the people
to bear arma shall not be infringed," and
the right tj keep arms implies Hie right to
