he tmphatlcally recognized 'the conilitn

to enforce that law; and subsequently en
forced it at the point of (he biyoncl, in the

seiHimeuta and opinions of our belovul
president, cmiccrnlos tho,rit;bt3 of slavery
in limes of pence.
Ditt when the slivehnldere cut loose
from their constitutional moorings, and set
at-ikfUnce the. authority of 'tho nntional

As soon ns the) war commenced, the Im

had asked for Ilbsrty, but were crus'ly ds
nlrd It.
Soon the keen Intellect of Gen. Tlutler
applied tli tlm condition of there panting
fugitives, tho well-known doctrine, "nf con
trabands of wnr." It was u neiv npplti-a-lion
of nn old principle of international
law. It was immediately adopted by the
l'n-sidtmt, and 'made u general ralo of no
lion. Yet it r.-assoon ftmr.cl that tho sup
porting prop of the rebellion was the !
slilutlnn of slavery. After many reverses,
ureal atuiely and profound study, the
I'ri-sidrnt eras forced to the conluiion,
that. In order to save tlm Guvernoient, lu
must deatroy slavery. This conclusion, It
mmt be confessed, was rescind with great
reluctance, uml after the conviction was
unalirrubly fastened upon his mind, al
though bo was urged by tvery cousldera
tmn of natloual Juitlco, humanity nwl
policy, yet he hrsitalctl a long while before

they were. still rebellious and dtfianl, nud

In conclusion let me say, tho hero of tlils
age, and the'loved idol nPlbis nation, bus
gone down to nirhnnorr-d gravo. 'He died
in the zenith of his reputation and glory
