Major General Howard on Freedom

At the late anniversary of the American Tract Society, Major General Howard, in the course of his remarks is reported to have said:
“It is true that trouble is now coming on, but it arises from the incompetency of our rulers. If we do wrong we must suffer for it. We have done right through the war, and shall we do wrong now? Deliver us from any such compromises. Let us build up our institutions on the basis of freedom. If we become timid now, we shall have the question of State supremacy again, and slavery also, if not in name, at least in all its bad influences.
