Let us, then, stand still nnd quietly

and men of tho North have no Idea of
surrendering In their own country
thoso great bulwarks of constitutional
liberty tho right of trial by Jury, tho
right to elect their own officers nnd tho
right to determine their own Internal
policy; and as soon as their prejudices

said, and I hero repeat It, that I despair
not of tho restoration of our liberties.
They are not ours only ; they aro equal
ly tho liberties or tho peoplo or tho
North and tho South, and when they
nt tho North seo that laws nro mado for
their oppression, do you not believo
that tho men who have descended rrom
revolutionary sires will rsMso their
voices against them '.' Do you not be
lieve that when they como to look
calmly upon tho question between tho
North and South they will foim parties
and platforms upon which you can
stand? And when that hour comes
then will como tho fulfillment of tho
promised era of constitutional liberty,
which I so confidently anticipate and
hopo for to-day. I may not 11 vo to seo
it; but, if I do not, I shall dlo confid
ently believing that it will come. I
know, my friends, that in this I run
counter to tho feelings that aro preval
ent In different portions of our country,
but I bollovo this Is tho truo policy for
tho South to pursuo at present. Tho
South cannot hasten tho day of her do
llveranco by attempting to nssumo a
leading part In tho politics of tho coun
try Fo-day. Let her peoplo quietly and
earnestly dovoto themselves to tho
worlt of improving and building up
their material prosperity, leaving thoso
who havo tho power to settle theso
questions among themselves, simply
saying to them, " Wo know our rights
know they nro invaded," nnd then
wait patiently unlltwo sco them divid
ed nnd at issue with themselves, and
join tho party nod support the candi
date and tho platform that promises n
restoration of constitutional liberty. It
is then that you will hold tho balance
of political power In your own hands,
and It Is then that all your rlgh'ts will
onco more bo restored and guaranteed.

my friends, vory quietly presented this
opinion, which I entertain upon tho
subject, that has been tho duty of form
er years, but not of present years. I
Ictiow I can do you no good. I am not
engaged in public affairs, but I hopo to
do you somo good by showing tho
world that, though I havo retired from
act! vo public sorvico,yet it is my purpose
to servo you, with head and heart and
and, as long as I live, Your Interest
mine not In a mero abstract and
general senso but in that devoted caro
which I havo foryour wclfaro aud hap
piness, and tho only reward I ask or
seok is that I may livo to seo all your
political rights restored and tho wholo
South prosperous, independent and
happy. (Applause.) Therefore, In
what I have said I havo only spoken or
what I consider tho best policy for tho
peoplo or tho South, under tho present
clrcumstaueos, to pursuo. Let tho peo
plo of tho North tako caro of them
selves. You went to war upon tho
samo question for which your ancestors
and theirs contended in tho first revo
lution against tho government of great
Rritaln tho right of commercial inde
pendent or Stato sovereignty. You
succeeded In that first war, and Stato
sovereignty must again bo restored or
elso tho republic of America Is a failure.
Despotism cannot bo exercised under a
Republican form of government, and,
my friends, if you can but wait all will
bo well. If any of us dlo beforo thu
day of peace and liberty dawns, let us
dio in faith that It will como at last,
Tho people of tho North will nover stir-
render their rights ; nnd when they seo
the danger at home then they will need
your nld nnd will como to you, and
then you will bo crowned witii victory
and triumphant success. (Applause),
I am not or thoso who " accept tho sit
uation." I accept nothing. Theso cant
phrases that wo hoar so much or about
"ncceptlng tho situation" and about
our rights having been submitted to
tho "arbitrament or tho sword" nro
but tho excuses of cowards. (Applauso).
I admit that power prevails over truth;
I admit that that power Is so great that
it would bo folly to resist U, and thero
foro I am In favor, myscir, or being
acquiescent, aud I ndviso you to tho
samo courso, but I do not admit that
our rights havo over been submitted to
tho arbitrament or tho hword. Who
has tho power to submit your liberties
to tho arbitrament of bnttlo? You
nover delegated that power to your
representatives. I, as your Executive,
nover claimed It, anil novcr, dying or
living, will I admit it. (Applaus-c.)
And then, my friends, about this much
talked of subject of "accepting tho sit
uation," Y'ou nro not called upon to
acknowledge that you havo dono wroug
unless you feel It. I don't believo I
did nny wrong, and therefore I don't
acknowledge It. All that n govornmont
has a right to claim from any of Us sub
jects Is that they will quietly submit to
tho law, Llborly or law Is their Inher
itance, and bubmlsslou to tho law ns
long as it Is such Is their duty and their
obligation, nnd It should bo their prido.
