To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Divinity that presided over the destinies of the Eepublic at its nativity, graciously endowed it with every element of stability save one ; and now that in the exuberance of its bounty the same propitious Providence is pleased to replace the weakness of slavery by the unconquerable strength of freedom, we may fondly hope that the existence of our blessed Union is limited only by the mortality that meas- ures the duration of all human institutions.
But, why argue on speculative grounds, to p...rove the patriotism of the Confederate soldier; since within these few months he has, by so memorable an illustration, vindicated his fidelity to the Union? You oannot have forgotten — for the land still trembles with the agitations of the crisis— that when of late a disputed succession to the Presidency appalled the country with the imminence of civil war : when business stood still and men held their breath in apprehen- sion of a calamity of which the very shadow Sufficed to eclipse all the joy of the nation: you cannot but remember, how, obdurate to the entreaties of party, and impenetrable 26 to the promptings of resentment, and responsive only to the inspirations of patriotism, the Confederate soldier in Con- gress spoke peace to the affrighted land.
