There is no question about it. He has spoken it more than on e in his character of President of the confederate States of America.
The gentleman seems to be an apt student of the original leader in this rebellion. I say, sir, for myself, and it is because I apply the rule to myself that I believe it ought to apply to the gentleman, that it is my duty as a citizen of the Repub ic to bow to the majesty of the law in whatever form it comes, and claiming for myself, if 1 deem the law unjust, the ri...ght which always belongs to the citizen, to seek its repeal by my vote and my voice, and in the mode prescribed seek its overthrow in the judicial t ibunals of the country. That, sir, is the extent of my priv- ilege and of the privilege of every individual citi- zen acting in his individual capacity. In saying this, I do. Not deny the inherent, sacred right of revolution in the people. I admit if the Govern mentof the United States arrogates powers which do not belong to it, imposes upon the people such burdens as are too grievous to be borne, they may, as a last resort, after all peaceable means of redress have been faithfully tried and have failed, and if further submission is more danger- ous to their lives and liberties than armed re- sistance—then, and not till then, may they em- ploy force.
