Excerpt from An Appeal for the Constitution: Theory and Practice of the Government
I am no partisan in the unhappy war which now devas tates the country. My allegiance has been freely given, as I trust it ever will be given, to the government of the federal Constitution. It is not a blind devotion to a name, an emblem or a form. It is rendered to no administration.
