We
feel that our cause is just and holy; we protest solemnly in the face of
mankind that we desire peace at any sacrifice save that of honour and
independence; we ask no conquest, no aggrandizement, no concession of
any kind from the States with which we were lately confederated; all we
ask is to be let alone; that those who never held power over us shall
not now attempt our subjugation by arms. |
