The iron" treiug in Committee of the Whole on the.
P
state of the 174011, Mr. Past mad: . •
Ma. CadatrUale—lt was not originally my intention
to have troubled the Rouse with any remarks upon the
Mesmer:ld', the President; but as this appears to he a
"free tight," I mike no apology !or takingan humble per-
Mi..;
sition In e..—k and file of the combatants. 'The Con
*titration abet. that' the President, "from time to
time. shal t give to Congress information of the state of
the Union, and recommend to their consideration such
measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient."
In performing this duty. the President has taken ad
vantago'of his high position, and instead of confining
himself to the Constitutional limits of discussion; has
traveled out of the record to arraign the people' of the
Free /Hates of tials : Vnion, and charge upon them on
memus derelictions of duty, crimes and mir;iemeanors,
which, if true, are equally disgraceful to tb m as men
and citizens of a great commonwealth. •
• Judging the President by his acts, it seemi he IS de.'
term/midi that Ramp Aphelion in this country never
shall geese. The sound repose which the nation was err
joying at the time the present Adniinlstrstion came in-'
to power was soon brokeriby the ruthless repeal of the
Missouri Compromise;
and from th it timeto the present
the Preside** has used his whole omelal power (to use
his own language,) "to prepare the people of the Dotted .
States for civil war, to undermine the fabric of the Uni
on, 'by appeals to passion and sectional prejudice, by in
doctrinating the people with reciprocal hatred, and by '
educating them-to stand face to face as emended, rather
than shoulder to *boulder as friends." I charge that
Franklin Pierce and his Administration ' backed op by
the sha m Democracy , have done more to create disunion
sentiments, North and South—to weaken the bondi•
which unite the different sections into one Federal head
—to create. animorities,Lharsed and bitterness among
the people, and to sow **seeds of sectional strite,whlch
hare already germinated; anff, unless arrested in their
growth, will end in a dlemenibermeit of the Union—
than all other causes and agencies put together. ~
It was reasonable to suppose that. after the. heat and
excited:lent of the Preiddential election had passed away,
and the great Republican party of the Country had bees
defeated,the overdid" of the people, about which the
President so szrogualy boasts, would hive satisfied h
malignity of feeling toward the people of the Northe
States; that be would have been willing to accord
them at least honesty of purpose in the discharge ;of
. high constitutional duty; and, following the example f
Mr. Jefferson, would have sought to. allay and code
rather, than foment and increase, strife and
agitation. Rut all such hopes and 'expeetatione proved •
delusive.- The President, abandoned by his friends and
smarting polar the lash of popular indignation, for gets
the railer; of honorable warfare, and turns " ravage "ore
on the defeated party; and, with characteristic maligni
ty, hurls his "tomahawk" and flourishes his "scalping
knife" at the heads of- a million and a half of Amerirah
dilutes, who be insultingly_ boasts, are "cruslied out.'
„ 1
Mr.phainnant among those who are charged with a
desire "to change the domestic institutions of °Asti g
Statea"--'.arith "assaults upon the Constlintloo"—with
au intent to "burn cilia, ravage, fields and slaughter
populations," and "undermine the fabric of the tido ,"
standprombieht the patriotic, high-minded, intellige t
.people of Maine. whom I ' in par represent repreeent upon t Is
floor.' The pebple ef Maine were out enough patri is
in 1852, owhen they gave General pierce 9,067 major s y
over General Scott; but now,when the tables are to •
ed, and this old Democratic State repudiates both b
and his successor, by rolling up a majority against. the*
of more than 30,000 for Freedom and the gallant Fremont,
he "shakes his gory locks," kod cries, "Treason! Tree-

1852; of 124.674.
It la my purpose, upon the present occasion, to meet
and *newer some of the specific charges and aesump-
Gone eautained . in this moot extraordinary message..
Speaking of the people oY the Free States, the .Presl
dent:says :
"They seek in object which they, well know to be a
revolutionary one." • • • • • "Well knOwlng that
such, and such only, are the means and consequen-es of,
their plans and purposes, they endeavor to prepare the

be to civil war and disunion, and which has no other
poeetbl4 outlet,"
• after ehrtiug the people of the Frei States with a
desire for viol war," "'Tyrannous," and `lfirunion," and
that they "well know" and were "perfectly aware" of all
this: he further say*: _ _ _ _
"I confidently believe that the great body of those
who Inconsiderately took this fatal step, are sincerely
attached to the Constitution and the thaap..

Every perenu who glances his eyes over this table ran
readily Make his.own calculations. In the -eleven Fre
mont State Unit are more than ids thousand more tree
et-hoots, and torcr els hundtvd thousand mote scholars.
than In the nineteen Bucheitan diatesmore than dou
ble the number of publie libraries, and nearly double
-Bur number of 4 rolamot. In common tehoui libraries
the former lead Itsa bitter over eleven, thonsand, and In
Sunday School Meatier( about double, with more than
twn handrolthowtiod more Sabbath School sctiolars.—
The eleven intamint les print and readout mere than
smelt ad/ copies f newspapers over the nineteen
Buchanan States: whit the cumber of free perwmaorer
twenty-one Tsar' of age bo cannot read or write are
more than throe times as sunereus In the Buchanan as
to the Fremont Stat a. In he Fremont States, mem&
ins to the population, one in try thirty de le found in
this clam, while In the 8 u Elates It stands one
In way Oarless. •
The Pasant mama to have forgotten a gnat grim&
ple in Which all sound political writers twig, t)
that intkiti4ence is one of the main pillars of a RePole
lie. Whets aretd toidtibr funitigent political action ?
Is It whir there are eataParatirely'but few schools, few
honks, few newspapers? Is it to those sections of conn
tey where many of the people are too Ignment to read
,or write? And yet the President assumes and publishes
to the country and the world, under his own hand, that
comparative ignorance is necessary to true patriotism,
- and that education and the means of lasing:lnce lead
men into constructive treason end a desire to 01,111112112
the Government. Such is the argument and such am
the legitimate cocielusions growing out of the premises.
2. Another charge made by the President against the
Republican party is an Intention on .their part to
' , change the domestic Institutions of existing 'States."
No assumption can be mere groundless than this. There
is nothing in the plate= or principles of the Republi
tan Party to support any Moab allegation . . rho very
first resolution in the Republican platibrui declares that
the "rights of the States must and shall be :served."
No proof of any such Intent on the part of the Republi
can petty has or ever can be produced. All t gentle
men on the other side pretend to say in support of this
baseless charge is that oressionally a man acting with
the Republican party may hive uttered a Sentiment
whieh,'by implication, they sty, Means the abolition of
Slavery Itt the States. Governor Adams of South Caro
lina, and "large nnmbtr of Southern gentkmen,beeked
up to a very respectable extent by the Southern
yter—
all of whom supported Mr. Buchanan and aet with the
Democratic party—openly advocate a chiral of the Afri
can airrietrmie; and yet Southern gentlemen upon this
floor and elsewhere contend that the Democratic party
might not to be made responsible for this. Why are the
supporters of Mr. Buchanan ter unwilling to accord to
the, supporters of Col. .1f remout the same justice' they
'essk'fas themseleee? Is it fits? Iritrightf la Wait?
I appeal to Southern gentlemen, or honorable men, to
answer there question'.
3. Another :cl4 ,4 ; s made Sigainst the .people of, the
North by the t, Is la 'long series of aggressive
acte—Pagainit the" stltUtiottal rights of nearly ome
half of the thirty.onk States.' This swans a War of
"aggression" on the parted he sixteen Pres is net the
firteeb Slave' States of the Union ; and the Pnieldeut
confines these arts of aggro nto the institution of
Starery in these last mentioned States. Stiihly. wok-
Mg, it is not a War upon thee Semis. but uPon I hoso in

I Rut, it la contended by Southern.po - liticiana, that un
less they can Mtn their slaves into thb Territories, end
there bold them as slaves. they are not on terms of
equality with the people of they're* States. I biro no
-time to argue the emmitutional question herein involved,
and it is not neceigarylo an answer to this assumption.
Too desire to wry your 'staves into the common Territo
ties. Pm well; the people of the North do not Interfere
trith you In doing that. You go another step and say you
tan legally h bld them titers as slaves ;'but the question
immediately arlfes, by what authority 1 And hareSonth
ern men entirely disagree. Some royalties can be hoid

non; others contend that they are holden In vile of the
Constitution; while a third elan carry the doctrine of
State sovereignty to such extremes that they carry the
_local laws of the States into the Territory with them.
Section 2 of article m of the Constitution of the
United plates, which you PO often (mote to rend nd North
ern men of their constitutional duties, settles this whole
thing against, you. "No perven held to serviesor labor
in one State, wrote the taws thereof, escaping into an
other," de. Hera the Conger:Mon expressly declares
that "persons" (which South meo gentlemen construe to
mean doves) are hold by vlrtth of Male law; and if you
ran carry, your local terra out t a State into other terri
tory, then yon need no "Tugillre Slave Law" to reclaim
your slaves. and this seetieb of - the Constitution is not
only unnecessary. but aubbautlally -void. ,
Slavehciders accuse the people of Mb North of a de,-
sire to exclude their slave property from the Territories.
;and call this "State inequality;" and yet they would
drive the free laborers of the North from the Territories,
end occupy them exclusively themselves, And call 'this
"State equality." Carry Strom lath the Territories,
land there give it a legal existence, and you drive out ,
free labor- for the reason that slave labor so degrades free
white labor that the two cannot exist together. This
attempt, on the part of the South, to give Slavery a le•
gal protection In the Territories Ja nothing less than , an
,attempt to comets the pmple of the Ave States frog,. the
publlC &main. and usurp the common property of 'all
the States. and dispose of thus same' for the, exclusive
benefit of the Slave power. • • '
6. Another charge of the President against, the people
of the Free States, is the "Slavery agitation," which has
thllowed the repeal( the Missouri Compromise. Speak
re -
log Of the pettlin of the restriction, he says: "Then
followed the cry of farm front the North against the
imputed Southern encroachment, ' " The history of hu
man governments is full of just each examples.
ILooking over the Past, it will be seen that whenever
au Insulted people have resisted the usurpations of , ty
-1 rants, they have always been met with the cry of °Aid
, tattoo!" I shall go into no iirettoetli to prone that' the
' president himself, and those who were engaged with him
I in the repeal of the Missouri Compact, have been the
I, dire 4 cause of all the Slavery agitation that bas existed
in this country tor the last two years. The whole thing
t I solicit to him and his alders and abettors like the repro r sy of Lemur, and not all the writers that run upon the
' has of Clod's heritage can ever wash it out. The impto
total historian; as
hero,* the events of his admirals-
Oration, will write 1 down against him; end in the in
visible future , like spectral gh'oat, it will travel with
t I him adds by side down the tide of time, until both the

II The President. In his labeled argontent in Word the'
, repea of the
ail uri Restriction, esets:
leCongrest leAted upon the sulelect In each terms as
were moat eousroaut with the prindpie of popular sove
reignty which underlies our Clovernment."
l , And then substantially avers that the people approved
the repeat, and adopted the principle embodied la the
I Denaassabluneka bill Is the recent Presidential election.
i Doerr from this being true, the Democratic party has
Ino settled opinion as to the extent or limitation of the
I "principle" of squatter sovereignty; and, its lestitng
members are to-day at loggerheads all over the country
, as to what the section in tiro Nebraska bill mane,-.
Squatter sovereignty North is one thing, and gthatter
w ee si g nodg e pth is quit . another; and they are so dt-
I ... ametricallyopposed to each other, that they can never
1 be made to luuntonisa. To rearm this matter tight before
the Howe and the country, I desire to read from several
speeches made , dente; the present session by leading
menthers la the Democratic party, In which this question
of popular sovereignty is folly dimmed. I will Ord
quote ordein attraeht defining "squatter sovereignty"
Seltdit.
At Ibuorable Senator Irma Tennessee, loses) in
a metro spends in the Senate, when sof 'b a d l y,
trine of squatter sovereignty, says:
"I regretted ! Mr. Prep/dent, that the Senior . float Pennsylvania (Mr. Bigler], who addressed the Senile of
length on this subject, telt it to be his duty to take np
that question and bring it here, knowing, as he most
have known, that it la one about which there is great
threntact."
, Another hams able Senator (Mr. Mason of Virgiala),in
a speech the present session, said: I
"Ibis Haas's hill was Intended to delegate to the Deett•
pants of the Territories whatever power Congress-Jess
sewed over all bahlects, , of riehttot lagialatiou; but of
course it could dadegatt no more: and what we denied
that Congress posatesed any power to legislate on the
subject of Slavery, we of course denied that the Territo
rial Legislature maid have it bemuse Congress could got
delegate • what it did not possess.e.
Another distinguished ileuator(se-bov.lircern of Mts.

since, said:

Ternaries). all belong to the same eategury, and they
are all political 'bearding! in my opinion." ,
In this body. since the present wagon commenced. a
distinguished gentleman (Col. Orr of South Crellna), In
defining his position, raid: . I •
