Synopsis

Excerpt from Union Peace Popular Rights: Speech of Edward Joy Morris, of Pennsylvania, in the U. S, House of Representatives, January 30, 1861

Such was not the kind of Government our ancestors aimed to establish, or they would have remained satisfied with the feeble systems it supplanted. Experience had taught them that they could neither attain a respectable position among the nations of the world, nor secure prosperity and security at home, but through the instrument ality of a strong Government. For this reason, the Executive was invested with an authority, a'most equal to that of some of the sovereigns of constitutional monarchies.
