They are the people who, the Democrats say, are now entitled, and only entitled, to be listened to. I pray you pause and consider gravely this great subject of the restoration of State Governments under the Constitution. Are the American people ready for such a restoration as that ? ("No, No. ") Is all that the Union has accomplished by a hundred thousand of its dead sons, and hundreds of thousands of desolate men and women at home mourning them, to recognize an insolent pretence, which never f...or a moment has been a fact ? If that be not so, then " the Union as it was, " in the sense of the men who call for it, is an impossibility. (Applause. ) They delude the people with vain words when they speak of " the Union as it was. " Call the dead to life ; clothe his bones with his dissolved flesh ; restore the soul to the soulless eyes of the thousands that have fallen mar- tyrs upon the battle-field, and then you can restore the Union as it Avas. (Great applause. ) The attempt is to begin a new civil war.
