No one can have failed to obsrrvo how resoliitclv the advocates of secession ignore tluv moral view of the present contest in (lie Tinted States. Tluv discuss, or, at least, iiuikii a show of discussing, its politi nil, socjal, and economical bearings; but of the morality "f the, matter Ihey have hoth ing to say. They prefer not to consider llio considerations of religious duly in volved in it: and to hear them talk vocif erously and exclusively about the. strictly material features of the struggle, one might be led to believe that there was no moral it y in it This is the prime error of secession the fundamental falsehood upon which it has erected its whom superstructure of heresy, iniipiily, and untruth. Can it be true that there is no right or I wrong in tins contest: - that lucre is no great moral principle involved in it? - that it is mi rely a cunllict of inter, sis, in which a sordid cvpedioncy is to be Ihe guide? Is it true that a citizen may, without violence to right, choosu whichever side he inclines to, without consulting his conscience, and without the fear of offending his Hod?
