Think of the obliga- tions which these States owe to the Union, and then inquire into the real motives which tempted them to bring down upon the nation the terrible calamity of civil war !
MR. AMBROSE'S LETTERS. 99 We shall look in vain, as I have before re- marked, for this motive in any right denied the States by the National Government, or any privilege withheld which State or individual citizen might lawfully or reasonably demand.
But, supposing there were some wrong in- flicted by the Gove...rnment, in the course of its administration, upon one or more of the States, and — to put the case of opposition upon its strongest ground — -supposing the right of se- cession to be acknowledged as the lawful resort of a State, certainly we may say, in view of the special compact of the Constitution, and of the plighted faith of the people of every State to stand to and abide by all the responsibilities and duties created by the common National Government, every consideration of justice, as well as of propriety and self-respect, would im- pose upon the complaining party the necessity of making a deliberate and friendly appeal to the rest of the nation for redress through the means provided by law.
