Speech on Union or Confederacy Echoes in 1863 Congress
Long address argues whether the United States must remain a consolidated government or a confederation. It warns that the message’s recommendations could fix the union, or destroy liberty, and denounces executive overreach and sectional conflict amidst charges of political manipulation.
Despotic Will of the Executive Warned Against
Mr. C. argues against centralized power and military despotism urging the Senate to reject measures that would convert the union into a consolidated, unchecked government. He warns the same executive strength could threaten liberty and constitutional checks, ending in despotism. He asks pardon for his warmth.
