Excerpt from Lecture on Liberty and Union: Delivered in Wheeling, January 17, 1854 It was a great sentiment of a great man - "Liberty and Union now and forever one and inseparable," The perpetuity of the Federal Union has always been an object of deep and solemn solicitude to the American statesman. It agitated the profound heart of Washington at the very inception of our present form of government, and inspired the latest accents which his patriotic voice ever addressed to his fellow-citizens. No truth ought to be more indelibly engraven on the hearts of the people, than that "Liberty and Union" are indissoluble. Unhappily it may be contemplated no longer in the abstract. Recent events have imparted to it a direct and practicable, if not painful interest. In the earlier days of the Republic, it was regarded as a kind of moral treason, to speak of a dismemberment of the confederacy. But now, like like treason in fact, grown bold in conscious strength, sentiments of disunion have crept out from the hot-beds of faction where they were hatched, and unblushingly enunciate their patricidal designs. But danger is half overcome when it is discovered. What therefore, are the dangers which menace Liberty and Union? And where shall we find the best security against them! These are important enquiries. "The price of Liberty," said Jefferson, "is eternal vigilance." And it is a wise remark of England's profoundest statesman - "Better to be despised for too anxious apprehensions, than ruined by a too confident security." It is not my purpose now, to animadvert on the ordinary topics of nullification, or Secession, Freesoilism, Filibusterism, Northern dogmas, or Southern dogmas, or any such ultraism. These are, indeed, fraught with danger. But there are other sources of evil, less palpable, but not less fetal, existing not in the form of visibly organized faction, but lying deeper in the principles of human nature, common to all parties, and to all sections. It is to some of this class of evils, I propose to refer in the first place; and then to discuss what I conceive to be, the great conservative elements of civil liberty, upon the recognition and prevalence of which the stability and existence of "Liberty and Union," depend. I. It was the emphatic injunction of the great apostle to the Gentiles, addressed to his brethren at Colosse, to "avoid covetousness which is idolatry." This singular and striking phraseology, announces a principle which would be recognized by sound philosophy, even if it were without the sanction of divine inspiration. All human experience, all history, attests its truth in the sense of the apostle's application. It does more. It demonstrates that covetousness is as incompatible with true devotion to liberty, as it is with the true worship of God.

Excerpt from Liberty, Union and Democracy At least, the lectures in which I touched on this aspect of America proved to be among those which were most helpful to my French hearers, who desired to understand what man ner of men we Americans are. And it has seemed to me that perhaps some of my countrymen, too, might be glad to consider, in this broadly general way, those national ideals which we have come to feel most indisputably our own, most surely and ineradicably native.
