BISSELL, 'OF ILLINOIS, _1 In the Rouse of Representatives, Tuesday, Feb. 21, 1850, in Committee of the Whole on the State of thi Pinion, on the Resolutions re ferring the.ißt4sidenes Annual Message to the appropriate , Standing Committees: Mr. BIIIIIELL Shia - Ma. CuAtn:cts t---Our discussions in this Committee bane already produced a profound and painful sensation throughout the Union. The public mind has become- agitated and anxious, and'Oppreseed with apprehensions of impending halaniiky. This state of things," sir, ought uot:.to continue; or, at any rate, that'uncertainty which makes the future more terrible, than would perhaps the realization of our worst fears, ought to be removed. If this Giivernmat of ours is really so near-its end as , gentlemen here declare it to be ; or if its longer continuance depends upon contin gencies so uncertain, it were well that we •knetV it now- . -that we might make timely preparation. ;Th on the other band, the ap prehensions thave spoken of are groundless, the people ought, in mercy, to be undeceived. They ought to.be undeceived at once, sir, in order that they may have that repose and conscious security to which they are entitled under a government treated and sustained by.. their own hands. .. Reluctant as I am to add to the ptiblic anxiety, I; et:do not feel at liberty to with holdlthe e. ression of my own opinion upon the absorb g topic of this discussion, and of the day. nd Ido not, hesitate to declare, as my, settlediconvictiOn, that', unless represen tatives who have .assumed to spml: for the. slave-hold**, ; States• have greatly mistaken the purpcl.s and intentions of the people of those States, War and bloodshed, consequent 'upon an atketnpt to overthrow this Govern tnent, are inevitable: This declaration I de • sire should. gOforth to the country . ; and with t i it _the the reaSons upon which my opinion is based. Tlieso - reasons are found in the ex tracts which I-shall quote, first, from ,the speech oft to honorable .gentleman from l‘lis 7 sissippi, (Ms. Brown.) Here are the extracts : " Whilst you have been heaping outrage ' upon outrtt,te,'. adding insult to insult; our people have, bqen calmly calculating the value of the Unions. The question has'been con sidered in all its bearings, and our minds arc made up." " We owe it to you, to ourselves, to our common country i :o the friends of freedom throuzllotlt die world, to warn you that we intend to subinit no longer." " Long vests of outrage ilpon obr feelings and disregard Of our rights have awakened so every southern heart a feeling Of stern resis tance. Think what you will, say what yoti perpetrawa.gain And again if you will, these acts of lawless tyranny Lille day and the hour is at hand when,every southern son will rise in rebellion, ,when every tongue will say, give us justice or give us 'death." Go home and tell your people the issue is made up, they nmst now choose between a non-interftlenoc with southern rights op the one side, and a dissolution of the Union on tbelother.' ' "1f you limey that our devotion to the Union will keep us its the Union, you are mistaken. Our ,love fur the Union ceases with the justice of the Utiion.. We cannot,„i to-e or:pry;zsion, nor hug tyranny bosom." " ' • = • "1 tell vota candidly, we have calculated the value of the Unions= Your injiistice has driven us to - it.—Your oppression justifies me to-day in discussing the value of the Uni on, and Ido so freely and fearlessly. Your press, your people, and your _pulpit, may denounce this as treason :be tt• so. You near sing hosannas to the Union—it is well. British lords called it treason in our finhtirs when they resisted British tyranny. British orator's were eloquent in their eulogiurns on the British crown. Our fathers felt the_op pression, they saw the hand that aimed th.e f; blow, and resiolved to resist. The result is refore the world.—We will resist, and trusts' to God and onr own stout hearts fur the co 3 4nuenees." " The Sorith afraid of dis Solving the Un,i —wiry should we- fear ? What is the to alarm / us or awaken our appreherisionsr 'Are . - e not able ti) maintain ourselves ?, Shall eight millions of freemen, with more than one hundred millions oflannual exports, fear to take their p osition upon the nations of the earth ? our cotton, sugar, rice, and tobacco, prodttets of a southern soil, yielding us annually more than a hundred millions of dollars, need,' we fear the frowns, of thf world 3" d. 511.1.1-11 AN " Have we any reason to fear a dissolution' of the Union? look at tliC' question dispas sionately, and answer to yourselves the im portant inquiry, ,Can anything be expected from the fears of the southern people? Du not deceive yotirselves—look at things as they really . are. For myself, I can say with a clear conscience,, we dO not fear it ; we are not appalled at the prospect before us ; we deprecate disunion, but we do not fear it; we know cur poSition too Aryl). for that." " Have we anything to fear from Aen in, the event of dissol'ution ? A little gasconade, and sotrietimes a threat or two." " As to there being any conflict of arms growing out of a dissolution, I have not Thought it at all probable. You complain of your association with slaves in the Union. We propose to take them out of the Union— to dissolve the unpleasant association, Will you seek a battle field to renew, amid blood and carnage,i this loathsome association. I take it for granted that you will not. But if you should, we point you to the record of the past, and warn you, fly.its blood-stainedpa ges, that we shall be ready to Meet you. These extracts from the speechoftlugen tleman from Mississippi [Mr. Brown] are sufficient for bur present purpose. 'The gentleman from N. Carolina, [Mr. Clingman.] tells us "what is the view presen ted in prospedt .to many qfthe.hiahest intellects of the South," and it is substantially this: fhat,as a separate Confederacy the slave-hold ing States "Might expedd as much as the ti"." States ever did in time of peace to the begin ning of Geri Jackson's administration, and still have on, hand twenty-five millions, of dollars to devote to, the. making railroad's, opening harbors and rivers, and fur other d- mestic purposes." The'sanie gentleman his thus disposed, in ridarice, of some little trial ters pertaining. to' the' interior regulations of the' "southern confederacy" to bor."The northern tieeof counties in Kentucky," says he, "would perhaps he obliged, to remove their slaveS to the South. But there. would be to her aditantage in the change,similar to those of ;Maryland. Kentucky supplies the South with live stock to a great extent : but she has to encounter the competition of Ohio arid other northWesteni States. If the pro duction of these States were subject to a duty, she might fora while have a monopoly in the !tilde." doubt not, sir, that it will as tonish the people of the - great West .and Northwest to find that the fathers of the' "southern confederacy" hare disposed of the_ navigation of the Mississippi with such ce lerity, as much as-it will. the people of Ken- - lucky to learn that their slaves are-henceforth to be removed South—instead qt.Nprti. The came 4 , 6th:titan hdsdiculged his plan for iremoving--, thotigh not (Pfite so gently--all those in Kentucky and the othe glaveholdingStates who hesitate nimbi weaft' ing allegiance to this ern confederacy." He'intimatiS that it:will not take as, long. to hang' them' as it did the "Toriesi of the Rev°. lution." • I think, Mr. Chairman. -that I havenow . given extracts enough to justify the opinion I expiossed at the outset ,of my remarks.

GENERAL ADVERTISER. ses, and intentions of the people of thiislave holding states are :eciriectly represented in• these- speeches, our co men' may well apprehend the most ft:MB:Ch.-landaus. The subject has been calruly- considered in all its aspects by the MOO intellects of the South. It has, been ascertained, by calculation, that if the, Southern Stateg Were separated - from the Northern, not only; Would they 'escape from "Northern aggressiOn" in future,- but they. would also derwe'al direct pecuniary atitian ttwe of $25,000,000i 'Per annum: And though it does not appear that the ctmouni of duty to be paid by the people of the West and North west to die' "Southern confederacy" ,for the privilege of navigating the Mississippi river has yet been fixed; lit•neyertheless does ap pear that such -a dueS - Is to be exacted. 1 al lude to these things r, to show the minute calculations that lia!,ie been entered into in reference to the' altered condition' of things Consequent upon the Meditated dissolution of the Union. They Show an advanced stage iii the progress of this, movement, which,, iu myJudgment, will rg:ionnd the country. sir,'let us see it we can glean from these gentlemen's speeches the shadowing forth of any plan by Which this movement is to be commenced and:, carried out. I first quote from the speck ofthe gentleman from Alabama, (Mr. Inge':) . • " Will the Repre4ntatiyes of the North attempt, by the powdof numbers, to outrage thd Constitution and degrade the South by the admission of this leiritory (California) as a State, without the otter - of some equivalent ? I suggest to their to remember that we are sw9rn to support theConstitetion, and could scarcely sit in tame acquiescence and witness its open and shameful violation. The attempt ed consummation of such an - act would be the, overthrow of the Constitution which the people n-e represent would "resist to the last extreinitv." • We-are . here as the representa lives of the people, but are our obligations to • the Constitution and iheSetith less than those of other individual. eitizensl who, in the ag gregate are, the people ? . We assume addi tional 01,14 - rations 'when -we come as Repre sentatives: but are ;We relieved from those which rested upon us, as private citizens? My'lndividual opinion is, that if the Southern people ought to resist a measure of aggres sion, after its consunimation, we here are under the same or a higher obligation to re ! sist its. consumrnatibn.—These sug,zestiuns are 'jade., not in theluature of threat or me nace. Ido not undOrate the firmness of the„ , 'North : a. a•rriatter of : discretion, it is always proper to assume that your antagonist mi, even if the fact be deubtful. But the course proper to be pursued in any and every event is for the determinatieti of• Sou them members. I tun willing to sUgg'est, and if my course is not approved, to follow any path of honor which may be pointed out by those who are older and wiser. I trust, that we snail stand together as one man; and present our breasts as the shield of the Constitution." This language, sir, scarcely admits of ar doubtful construction. I understand it to mean this : Thatthe gentleman considers himself and other Shuthern .representa lives, in which character they are to resist the pas sage of an unconstitutional law,' (as, for in , stance, one admitting California in the Union) in the manner and by the forms prescribed by the Constitution ;and the rules of this ;: House: secondly, as fricate citizens, in which] - haracters they are bound to resist the pas -5711ge Uf au aggirztsiiro, love in the same „way that private citizens may resist aggression upon their rights. t feel quite sufe that I have not mistaken the proper construction to be put upon the gentleman's language. But. as I have given! the emire .Phra.graph, let itsrak.for itself::What&er , do'ubts there may be as to the proPerionstruction of that aragraph, there calk - 'he' none, mine at all, a to the one whick I now quote from the sPeech of—the gentlerhan from N. Carolina, (-Mr. Clingman) already referred to: I" But it is advised ('says he) in certain ortions of tht northern press, that the mem rs from that sectiottought to:expel such as Linterrupt their proCeedings. Let them try the experitnent. - I, tell gentlemen that this is our slate-holditig: Territory. We do not intend M leave ii. If they think they can retnoys us it is a proper ease for trial. In• the present temper cifithe public mind, it is propable that a colliiion of the kind here might electrify the Cotintry, as dill the little skirmish at L'exingtati the culdnies in their then excited state. Such a struggle, who.: ever might prove the'victors in it, would not leave a quorutn here to do business.. Gen tlemen may call tills treason, hi treason— 'the highest treason the worltreyer But their words are "shallOdefeat their movement nit:inst us." If this does not sufficiently' show where and how the revolution is to commence, let us turn again to the' speech of the gentlentan from Mississippi, (Mr. Brown,) and read an nother extract : "illy own opinion is this: thatwe should resist the introduction of ) California as a State, and resist it sUccessflilly : resist it by our votes first, and lastly by other means. We can, at least, force an . adjournment `with out her admission. This being done; we are safe. The Southern States, in convention at Nashville will devise means for vindicating their rights. Idi not know what these means will he, but know what they nury be with propriety arid safety.. They Maybe to carry slaves IMO : all of Southern Cali fornia, as the property of sovereign States. and there hold them, as we .have a right to do :.and, if molested; defend them, as is both our right and dtitv. • . . " We ask- you td ifive us our rights by tgo..l , r.irEavENT.tov,if you refuse, lat ihr taking them by .eaq;En-OCCIJFATIoN." Resist the passage of a law adtnitting v ifornia, -first by vot ‘ es, and lastly by "other meeOzs . !" Chatrinan, does theConstitu tion'which we are iworn to support, or the rules of this Houk,. point out ;to us any " other means" of res. isting the enactment a.law, except by means of votes? -We can I adjourn. But how adjourn without voting an adjournment ? ." Force au adjournment," says the.gentleman. And that force is the other means" by ;which the admission of! California- is to he resisted, "and resisted su6. ceslfully," And What next? Why the Nashville Canveniioit is to meet. Then what ?'I Carry slaves into:; all of Southern Califor, tiia; as the•Properti of sovereign States; and there hold thetas , as'.We'have a right to do ; and if molested, defend them, as is both our' right and duty." And thin is California is be ''iakot" by armed "occupation." Alas ! for the 100,000 . ,rnen already there, or on their' way thither, from Whom 'California is to be taken by force, .and held by armed occupa tion, that slavery It ay be introduced there. against their will ! I doubt not, Mr.:! Chairman, that, by 'this time, you and thii'ep'mmittee are satisfied, as I am, that unless the, intentions of the'peo-, pie of the slave-holding States have been mistaken by some 'lot' their Representatives ;here, a coniliet of arms-between the'Govern meat of the United States and a portion of the citizens thereofis inevitable. . • • But, sit., I have never permitted myself to doubt the patriotisth of the American people.' And I shall be slob, especially, to distruit that quality in the 'people of the generous South. Left to their own. unprejudiced judgment, . and their own sound reflections, I shall 'have no fear. I dare:hardly answer, however, for the efTect whiCh the speeches, pecially that of, the gentleman from Mis / issippi, (Mr. BroWn) may hays upon the minds of a gallant people, naturally ardent trrt4 impulsive. Indeed, sir, I, shudder at the thought of the effect which passages like that which I shall now quote, may, I had almost said, must-produce on the feelings of our Southern brethren: . .Reeeinigit in rod =EI • . , faith, as We ace bound to suppoe they will, atca faithfuLstatement of the cruelties and enormities about to:be visited uj4on them by the hands of their Northern brethten, it would be strange, indeed, if they failed to be wrought up to. the - nog intense deplet of, ,excitement and exasperation : • . • Our Country is to be made 'desolate.— We are to • be.Ariv,en.from our homes- , --the homes haUo b all the sacreclassociation.,' of family and friends., We are to be sent; like a people accursed of God, to wander through the land, homeless, houseless, and friendless ; or, what is , ten thousand times worse than these, than - all, remain in a countrrnow prosperous and happy, and- see ourselves„.our wives andThildren, degraded to a sociat- position with the black race.— These,lhlese are the frightful, terrible con sequences ou woaldintail upon us. Picture to yourselves jiungary, resisting the powers of Austria and Russia; and if Hungary, which had never tasted liberty, could, make such stout resistance; what May you not an: ticipate from eight millions of Southrons made desperate by your aggression ?" Do you know, Mr. Chairman, of any , acts committed or meditated by the North against the people of the slave-holding States, that can by any possibility justify such declara tions as those I have quoted ? r know of I none, and I am sure the goldernan from Blissi*.ippi will find it very difficUlt to point them•out to his coastituents.. It is easy, in deed; to deal in general charges against the I North, and when requested uested to specify those Icharges, to say, as the honorable gentleman l• front Mississippi does. " I will not 'recount ; the story, of our wrongs." 'But will such a cours,g satisfy a people, patriotic, ; intelligent •40 inquiring Future developments will show. =• And What, sir, are the.causes assigned to I justify the act of dissolving tJtis Union . ? They are alleged . ag„g7tes'sions by the non slayeholding Stat'e% upon the rights of the t slave holding, in respect to slavery. All the i charges put forth against, the non-slavehold ! ing States have reference to that question solely and they are all comprised and corn , pendiously set forth ia a single brief sentence which I here quote from the speech before \referred to of the gentleman from N. Caro lina, (Mr. Cliugman.) After referring at •, some length to the benefits and advantages . of slavery, he says : " In spite, hoWever ' of these , great facfs, which 'ought to strike all impartial minds, the course of the North' has been constantly ag gressive oh this question." Nciw, sir, en behalf of the North, I repel the char, -.. i And I affirm that, for anything 1 the Nora has done to justify the overthrow df this C vdrnntent, any attempt to do so, is naked tr • son. What, sir, the course of the free St es been :4‘ constantly aggressive" upon th , South on the slavery question ? Let us see. , Ince the adpption of the Constitti- - , tion . seve teen States have been admitted into the unr. Of this number nine are slave holdin, States, and eight non-slaveholding. Now, slr,- it has so happened that at every trite tOen any of these slaveholding States hi ve arplieel for admission, the North has hadco nplcte ascendancy in both branches of Congress, consequentlV the power to exclude any or all of them. They were all admitted, -slaveholding as they were, with just such constitutions as they had chosen,to adopt for -themselves. Is this . a part of that " aggres aitc- Lcrtitnc" . cmt tho aavery questio n which the North has " constantly", pursued? -- Again: Of the territory embraced within, 'the seventeen-States thus admitted; the free States cant rise 334,259 square miles;; and the slave States 730,376 square mires.— Thus we see that the extent of slave • terri tory admitted into the Union since the adop lioti of the ConstitutiOn is considerably more than. twice as great as that of the free terri tory. Does this It\tk like a disposition on the part of .the free States to pursue a course of "constant aggression" towards the South on the subject of slavery? Again : The annexation of Texas was a peculiarly Southerg measure. The necessity of - its acquisition was distinctly placed by Mr: Calhoun—himself the embodiment of ultra S outhern principles, and the master spifit of the then Administration—upon the wants of Slavery. To the North the meas. iire was distasterul. The North never de sired, for its, own sake, the acquisition of Texas; nevertheless, the .South earnestly desiring it, and Mr. Calhoun's great influ once being brought to bear in its favorAfor the reason chiefly, just given, the North gen eronsly acquiesced in the measure, though ifosscssed of ample power to defeat it. Tex as was acquired—and, at the cost of. a san guinary and expensive war, we took into the I Union, at one swoop, an amount of slave ' territory equal in extent to the entire original ' thirteen States. All this the uon-slavehold ing States might have prevented, but did not. Is this Northern "agereszion" upon, the rights of the South ou the slavery ques- I non? ls this one of the acts'of " aggres sion" on the subject which is to justify gen tlemen of the South in - dissolving 'the Union ? The. poker of Congress to abolish the slave-trade and slavery at the arscnals, forts and 'navy yards, and in this District, will hardly be questioned by any of our southern friends. And yet, neither the one nor the other has been abolished to this day in any of. those places. Even slave-dealers now drive'their occupation in this district at pleas tire. Could not the North,hadshe chosen so to do, have put au end to slavery and the slave trade in all these places', long ere this ?. She has forborne to do so. Is that forbearance ari:V part of the aggressido •?' upon slave ry whichi.n - ow justifies rebellion against the Union ? • • • . Now, sir, let us consider those minor charge§., so pertinaciously urred against the free States, that make up the sum total of those " aggresSious " which justify these gentlemen in dissolving the Union. What are these charges? Why, it is charged, first, that milting the people of the free States there is a iirera,lent add increasing feeling adverse to slavely, This statement, or charge if it bOone. I Cannot deny. But I am at a loss to'conceive how„that tau be re- - garded as an "egression" upon the South, or a justification for the .act of-overthrow ing' this Government. Is it required of the free States that they; in aggregate, shall keep a supervision. over ihe views and opinions of their individual ; citizens on political, moral or any other subjects ? Is not this a cotin try of freedom of opinion I' And doubt our southern friends, even, recognize the princi • plc that " erro,rof opinion may be safely tor- , erated where reason is left free to combat it 3' 'But are the people of the free States peculiar in their Views on 'this subject ? pues not I the " aggression? come alto from another quarter,. and With ten-fold force 3, How is, the feeling in lientucky, where, at a recent eleetion, more than thousand cogs' (es I am informedjl . were cast in favor of coni pletel.emancipation How is it in other northern slave' States whim - Van Buren, even, at the list Presidential election; found i warm supporters, and not few Votes 3, Now, gentlemen of the South, you cannot prevent these things—this feeling, or sentiment, ;or whatever else yoti may tall it—even among the people of your own slaveholding States, mitt you ? Are you; not asking too midi, then,' when. you require'iis oCthp North and West : to suppress it making ourperiPle? could not do soi if we would. And, if we had thp power 4 our refusal `to exercise.it •would means tend" to justify the e struction of this Republic. • . Agaln ; It is made an accusation against thefree States, 'that their ministers of, the Gospel' making \slavery a subject of pulpit thui increasing the hostility already existing against that institution. To some extent this may . be the fact, Mr. Chair man.; though - I confess that, so , far as my own knowledge extended, such instances are exceedingly rare. But :what then? Can we prevent that ? ' Otight we to try ,Why; on this point we have the authority of the gentleman from Mississippi, (Mr. Brown] , himself, in 'favor of the practice. You will recollect, sir, that after treating us to an ar gument of considerable length designed to show.that the moral and religioui condßiork of the negro is improved by his being held in bondage—and after declaring that, to hie opinion slavery is "a great moral, social. political, and religious . bltssing to the mu ' ter:;" he ; drops the subject by saying It ' is no partof my purpose to discussthis pro-. position. The subject, in this view, of it, belong . rather to the pulpit than to the halls of legislation." Surely, sir, he 1.611 now complain no more of sermons on the subject of Marerv;—and, when' he comes to draft the..“ declaration" for the "southern confedi eracy trust that has not already been. done)—he will certainly not include this as, one of 'the "causes which impel us to the separation." • I NO. 10 But again : It is charged . also,,againsta the free States, that we tolerate anti-slavery so* cicties. Yes; sir. we tolerate anti-slavery. societies,. native American societies, temper.: arice societies, moral ..ceform societies, MIS ° IliOnary societies, sewing societies, and pos sibly—though I am not certain--other iso cieties. We are so, because, first, we have no right to be intolerant in reference to such, matters ; and secondly, because there is no ";; teceAtv for meddling with them. We must hinit for other causes than this, sir, to ju..tify• a dissolution of this Union. Another. charge against us is, that we per mit ferambtilate the country lectur-. ing . on abolitionism, thustincrising the pre.% judice already existing against the Institution of slavery. There are such Men, nu doubt. Aly mind recurs to one just - now—one, who, in that way, has probably , exercised morein finence iu the North than all the other anti slavery lecturers put together: This man is Cassius M. Clay, a Citizen of the slayeholding State of Kentucky. When our '' , Southern frienas will agree to seal - his mouth on that, subject, or confine his efforts to the southern States where he belongs, it will be lime enc;ugh for us of the North to set about,devi-. sing some mode of confining Itinerant Ice-, tuners, or prescribing. subjects for the exer, vise of their _eloquence. I might Mention other lecturers of the same sort for whom 'the Sortn is indebted to the slave Stites. But it i s unnecessaft. • • It is also made a matter of accusation. against the free States, that anti-slavery pres ;;ses arc kept up there,, all that the pa 043 supplied by them are eirculatod throughout- • the 'Northern States, ned even into the South-. . ern, and this is one of the piincipal-eatifSes I which tender it. necessary 'to establish ti Southern confedertcy," - 41kb:shall cut-. I brace just exactly the fifteen slayeholßng I States and nu more We cannot deny, Mr. Chairman, that such 'papers do ciretilate quite extensively in some portions ,;.of the, free States,-and some of them, probablY, Mat: 14 • ',found even South of Mason and Diion'ifirie.- I have a paper of that character on my desk now: Here it is, sir. Molding it up.] It, is a fair looking . paper, Mr. Chairman ; and .‘ I observe that its articles. , are written with,. great power. But, I. assure you, sir, it is I fearfully severe on slavery. And• it circu-. lates e.xtensiYeh in the North, too: the num ber not being less, I am told, thanfOrteen thousand weekly ; besides some: thowands which find' their tray into the slaveholding, States. No*, I can imagine that you sup- . pose this paper to be-published MArcratont. You are mistaken, sir. It isnot publiShed there, nor in Massachusetts, nor even North of Mason. and Dixon's line. It is ptibliShed on slave territory, sir ; right here in sight of ' this Capiiiil; anlalmost within sound of my • • voice. Right licre;sit% upon this . very Etta from which the gentleman from North Caro l- lina. [Mr. Clingmand is not going to be driv- I en, because it. dere territory." Yes,. gentlemen of the South, front your own . midst ; from the very doors of your *houses, surrounded by your slave population, dO you send forth anti-slavery papers, in number more than fourteen thousand per_week, to - deluge the North, and manufacture. public. sentirmnt there.

I remember, alSo, that there tvasariother. anti-slavery press. in vigorous and very of--_ fective operation-for some tiMe in'Kentucky. MR. BROWN. We destroyed it. 11In. BissELL. ? So you did,. by violence. But, by your own laws and the decisions of , your Own courts, ,you were punished for it. You were compelled -to make compensation. •in damages fur your lawless act, Ncrar,J, ask our Southern friends, in all good feeling if they can justly urge a reason, for dissolving the Union annoyances consequent' upon a state of things in the free states which they . cannot prevent at their own doors'? We are net by ;the ,gentlenian from NOrth Carolina with another difficulty, for : which he holds the North ; responsible. He suggests, that the increasing anti-slavery sentiment in' the North ; will prevent the President from appointing ,ralaveliolders to office. For the present let a singlri fact,allay the gentleman's feats. The Presidency has been given to the • slaveholding States during forty-eight Of the' last sixty years. And thi.s too, through . the • white population Of the shiveholding States has rarefy, if at any time, exceeded one-hair, that of the free States.. Of the foreign mis-. ' sions'of all grades,n-iore than a majority have been given to the SOuth. Of the Cabinet ap pointments . very nearly; if not. quite half, have been given to the South. Of the officers in the army and navy it will be found that, chnsideriv, the relative 'population-of the free and slavdholding States, at least-three:out of, five have beets giveti to the South. How is it at this very moment, sir,.While these very complaints of ottrage„ insults, tyranny, and . loss of office, of& big made ? Why, sii,' the President—a majority of the Cabinet—a majority of our foreign ministers—a majori ty of the ministers of the Snpreme Court, and the presiding.. Officer and. clerk of this . House—are southern men 'an d slav eh olders, Does Unt this 'satisfy. the gentletnan from, North Carolina ? Surely he might, on this subject, rest quite eat,-. ,Another difficulty . set forth in that gentleman's speech I ought, - perhaps, to notice with becoming seriOnsness., l I alb* to the refusal of the New England spinster to take the southern gentleman's . arm I. ..1 That was wrong; unquestionably, But then, these Yankee girls are very nide 'pendent, and:will do just as they please—as: some of ors have learned from very painful personal. 3 experienee; l But I do not think that a dissolution of the Union need to follow as. a necessary consequence. •it:N a proper sub- ject for negotiation. - .
