SPEECH OF MR. CALHOUN ON
THE SLAVERY QUESTION. •
Coreeapenden" dale Philadelphia *Nowt."
WAaai zero!, March 4, 1850.
On motion of Mr. Butler, the Senate
then resumed the reconsideration of the
coutpromise resolutions offered by Mr.
Clay.
Mr. Calhoun having the floor, briefly
stated his inability to address the Senate
in person, and returned thanks for the
courtesy which the Senate had extended
him, in permitting him to have his views
upon the great question of present agita
tion delivered by a proxy. He then ask
ed Mr. Mason to read his speech for him.
Mr. Mason then commenced reading
the speech. Mr. Calhoun commences by
asking—“ What can be dune to save the
Union !" It was necessary first to find
the cause of the danger, before a remedy
could be applied. The danger arose—
rst, from the discontent in all the south
ern states, which commenced with the agi
tation of the slavery question and has con
tinued ever since. The next question,
was—""What has caused the disquiet["..-'
It resulted from the belief on the part of ,
the southern states, that they could not:
live in the Union, under the exiting statel
of things, with safety to their honor and I
interest..
He proceeded next to show by statistics,l
that the equilibrium of the different sec
tions of the Union has beet' lost, in conse
quence of the increase of population In
the north ; this state of affairs placed die
control of the government exclusively inl
the hands of the north—giving them* ma -1
jority of the states, and a large majority
in the population, which would be greatly . !
increased by the next census. In addltion
to this, the newly acquired territory would
also add, speedily, et least five new states,
which would be admitted to the north—
while no additional territories were pro-1
greasing in the South. •
L
lie next proceeded to show that toe se 7
tion of the government had been such as I
to give control to a sectional majority, by
which the south has been deprived of its
share in the territories. The first act hav
ing such effect, was the ordinance of 17
87. The next—the Missinuri coMpro
mice ; and. the last the act by which the
south were exclinled frem Oregon- The
result of all . of Which has been to exclude
the south front three4otirths of the terri
tory acquired by the ,federal government
—giving her one ; fourth only.. The north
had also untettled the necessary eptilibri
cfn between theiwo,lections, by adopting
a syitem of reven ue cad diOursements
which had imposed unequal burdens oft
en the south—to the advantage of the
north. The action of Cungress ,in the
next place had resulted in a coneetttration
of power in the federal government to the
manifest disturbing aod
,violotion itf-stals
right4 l :... - Theretsult of these aeries of
measures, and this course of policy was to
give the northiticebdandy in every depart.
ment of the governtrient.
He then proceeded to consider the views
and feelings of the people of the north rela
tive to the itietittnitin of slavery, which the
south felt to bet necessary to. her social or
ganization, and which he said was looked
upon with greater or less hostility by the
whole north stn the people of which.felt
bound, at least to discountenance . it, while
they felt themselvel inipelled to defeitd
He reviewed the course of the slavery
agitation by the north,'--commencing with
the fireibettle..upon Ihnright petition,l
and coming down to the present day-for the
purpose of showing that , encroachments
upon this. point hod been continued grad
ual, and always, successful--until immi
nent danger to the Union itself hail now
arisen. He contended that from the first
organized movement. the abolitionists had
continually increased in numbers, impor
tunities, and demands, until their, work
had reached a point which demanded im
mediate and earnest efforts for its arrest.
What then could be donit to arrest its
progress. and what could-lave the union I
Disunion wouldnot be effected at a single
blow, It was the, work of time—for the
cords which bind the Union are too strong
be snapped all at once. One of the many
cords which had bound it together was.
the religious cord—the sympathy hetween
the associations of various religious de
nominations of both sections. The first
of the cords which snapped was that of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. The next,
the division of the Baptists with two op
posing sectional parties. The Presbyter=
tan cord had not altogether given wily. al
though some of its strands were brokett.--=
The Episcopal, only, of the four great de
nominations, remained firm and unbroken
—as a result of this agitation; Mr. Cal
houn makes no reference whatever 'to the
Catholics.
The next cord which had snapped was
that of a political party organization, which
had held together until recently severed
by the increased agitation. Agairt--"how
could the Union be saved I" It could on
ly be saved by adopting such Measures as
will satisfy the southern states Mit they'
could remain in the Union with safety and
honor to themselves. It could not be sav
ed by eulogising the Union. nor by ap
peals to the memory of Washington.
Neither was there any thing in the life or
example of that distinguished man which
would deter the South front seceding ;
on the contrary, there was much to encour
age them to secession as a remedy for op
pression and deprivation of their rights.—
Mr. Cass' plan. or the plan proposed by
the administration, could not save the Un
ion. The latter was nothing but a modi
fication of the Wilmot Proviso, and still
more objectionable than that measure.—
Its very object was to deprive the south
of its rightful participation in the territor
ies.
Looking at the constitutional question,
he contended that the power of legislation
for the territories is vested exclusively in
Congress. In this view. the action of the
people of California in forming a govern
ment for themselves. had usurped the pow.
er of Congress. Their conduct in this
respect was revolutionary and rebellious
in its character. He expressed his con
viction that the people of California had
been influenced in their action by persons
acting under the suggestions and authority
of the executive.
Ile also proceeded, with an effort to
show that the action of California, and the
executiveproposition for her admission in.
into the Union, wu in uirect violation of
all the put action of Congress. What
now would the Senate do. Much depen
ded on their action. If they admitted
California Into the Union, they would
sanction all that ,iitte had done. Were

skid that thane was any each state u Cal

them leave to do so. How could gen

who look the ground that Congress had
no right of legislation—now turn round to

denied in the Presidential contest 1 How
could those gentlemen who voted on the
Oregon question against the position that
Congress had the sole and absolute pow
er of legislation for the territories now pro
pose to sanction a course directly the re
verse ? What did all this mean Were
they to conclude that the exclusion of the
south from the territory acquired from
Mexico, was an object of such paramount
importance, that right, justice, consistency.
and the constitution, must all yield there.
to. There was but one way in which the 11.
nion could be saved, and that was by the full
and final stittlernent--upop the principles
of justice--of all the questions at issue be
meek the two eectiens. .
The south asked for simple justice—
less than that she ought not to take. She
had no cemproinisei to offer, but the con
stitution. and could make no surrender or
concession. Sy satitifying the south—sba
could remain honorably. saMy in the Union
and thereby restoring tranquility. Could
this be done Yes!, easily—not by the
weaker party—for it could apt protect it-
self. bp; the , stronger, The north had only
to do justice by conceding to the south a
participaiion in the territories-..her duty
by causing the arrest and delivery of NO.
tite slaves—by ceasing the agitation of the
slavery question, and to provide an antend
meat fifths constitution, each as would re
store to the south the power to - protect
herself, which she posessed before the e
quilibrium betweeighe sections was des-
Buoyed by the action of the government.—
'Would the north agree to this f If her
love for the Union was as great- u her
profession.. At all event' the responsibil
ity of saving the Union, rested on the
north and not upon the south. The south
could- not save it by any sacrifice of hers,
and the north might save it without sacri
fice. If this question Ives not now settled
—there was no telling when it would be.
U you, said Mr. Callsour, cannot agree to
settle these questions on the principle of
justice and duty—say so, and let the states,
we represent agree to separate—part in'
peace. If you are unwilling we should
part in peace, tell us so, and we shall
know what to ilo when you reduce the
question to submission or resistance. If
you remain silent you will compel us to
infer what you intend. In that case Cal-1
Womb& will become the test question. If
you admit her under all the difficulties that
opposes her admission, you compel us to ;
infer that yon intend to exclude us from
the whole of the acquired territories, with
the intention of ,destroying irretrievably
the equilibrium lietweei the two sections.
We would be blind not to percieve in that
case that your real objects are power and
aggrandisement, and infatuated nut to act
accordingly. In conclusion. he repeated
that lie hail all along endeavored to repel
these aggressions ot the north by arresting
the agitation, with the intention of saving
the Union, if possible—and if not, to save
the section where his lot has been cast.—
Having dime his duty, let what would
come, he would be free from all responsi
bility.
Mr. Webster expressed his desire to ad
dress the Senate on Wednesday or Thurs
day next, and after some conversation it was
understood that Mr. Hamlin would speak
to morrow, Mr. Walker on Wednesday,
and Mr. Webster on Thursday.
Mr. Hale gave notice of his intention to
reply to what he considered the romance
of history of the anti slavery question, pre
sented by Mr. Calhoun. The Senate then
adjourned.
EXCITAINNINT AT Fitt oaucc—Singu
/or core.—There has been considerable
excitement at Frederick, Md., in regardtoa
sudden death of a eon of Mr. Charge A.
Cole. A correspondent of the Hagers

"After being kept for the period of four

TUC CoNvErmox.---The
action of the Tennessee legislature, in pas.
sing resolutioni condemnatory of the Nub
villa convention, and refusing to appoint
delegates thereto, has operated very greatly
against the prospect of the convention
being held. at least there ; and the Macon
Journal, of Georgia, urges that it now
meet at Macon. We have no voice in the
matter as to where the convention shall
meet, but every patriot would surely de
sire that it might either be holden for con
sistency's sake in South Corlina or Missis
sippi.
THE GAINES CASE.—'Phis case, which
has been before the courts, and has occu
pied a portion of the public papers. (or
years, was finally decided last week in the
U. S. GirCUC Court at New Orleans, and
against Mrs. G's. claim. The testimony
in the case showed not only a curious
state of affairs in the domestic history of
some of the parties concerned, but also
some singular facts respecting social and
moral Life in New Orleans previous to its
admission into the Union. It was proved
during the trial that the mother of Mrs.
Gaines, was married to three differnt per
sons, each living it the same, time. Mrs.
G. was the child of the second husband
and claimed all his large estates, but the
decision of the court leaves it in 'the hands I
of the present owners.—Ger. Td.

He has evidently made up hi. Mind that the crisis
has at length arrived in which disunion is not on
ly unevoislible bit deeirable,and door not hesitate
to say so. Act:tinting to big views, no plan of
compromise yet 'submitted will satisfy the South.
Mr. Clay's plan will notes.° the Union : neither
will that of l i reddent Taylor. The projects of
Mr. Foote and la*. Bell are not regarded
,as even
entitled to a palling notice. There is only one
way in which th Union can be lived, and that
is by the North yi elding the whole matter in con
troversy by alio ng the introduction, of Slavery
into our free terriorico, passing laws securing the
arrest any restordion of fugitive slaves, and then

ed in the councils the nation. The South, ac
cording to Mr. Colboun, has no compromise to of
fer, can make no maces-ion or surrender : and if
the North will net "care in," disunion must
come, and the poorer the better.
There ultra views of Mr. Calhoun will do good
in opening the eyes of • large portion of his fol
lowers to his real designs, and will detach from him
all who are not popered to swallow the dose he
has prepared. The %Vas/nov.3n Republic, edited
by a Southern gentleman of much Ability and un
derstood to be in tint coufidence of President Tay
lor, alluding to this speech, remarks :
We consider the speech of Mr. Ca'houn a
manifesto of (Reunion, by prescribing impractica
ble and impossible conditions fur the salvation of
the Union. It bikes the ground, substAtiliallv i
that, if t'alifornis is admitted into the Union, it
will present a case for resistance. This is the only
tanzi Me and pectic*/ proposition in the whole
speech.
Whatever doubt may have been hitherto enter
tained upon the question, no one can read this
speech without coining to the conclusion that Mr.
Calhoun has wrought 'Mosel' into the conviction
that the dissidution of the Union is the only rem
edy fur existing evils. That it will separate him
from thousands of well-intentioned and patriotic
citizens, both at the North and South who have
hitherto looked up to hint as a safe political guide
and advis er , we cannot doubt. It is fortunate for
the country that Mr. Calhoun has thus unmasked
his motives and objects ; for, as a professed disu
nionist, he will be henceforth shorn of his powers
and opportunities of mischief."
An important demonstration Was made in the
Senate on Tuesday by Mr. roots, wbo immediate-
==IMMM
reran* to the disunion 'spent of Mr. Calhoun 's
speech, and affirmed diet the latter would not be
enstained even by the Booth in WS ultra demands.
MF. Foote defended the Neob thorn the successive
,
charges or hostility and eursesion prefiermi by
Mr. Cothean,denied that 'an amendment to the
Constitution was essential or oven wished for by

ly vindicated, and the future will tell how the ma.
lice and envy, evinced by this unfounded attack,
have operated.
There appears to be some otrouble brewing in
the camp." Judge Porter of Northampton seems
to have got the idea that he le the Democratic
,par.
ty himself, in the House, and Mr. Klotz, of Car.
bon, took it upon himself to disabuse the Judge of
this "pious" notion. A motion was before the
House, to refer a 'remonstrance against o change in
the time of holding Courts in Carbon County to a
Select Committee. By changing the time, Judge
Porter wishes to attend these Courts himself, and
as he is Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, he
deemed that the proper 'one to take charge of this
reasaustrance—so he opposed the reference to any
other, and in the course of his remarks, spoke very
disparagingly of the bar of Carbon County. Mr.
Klotz replied, and he answered him well. He
told some secrets about his private diameter, and
concluded by hoping. that the House would make
en kelipois" of the gentleman and cut him short in
the career he had coiamencrd—and they did.--

It stated that the Secretary of the State of New
York has articles of aisociation filed In his Office,
which contemplate the construction of 2000 miles
plank road, the cost of Which will be trout $3,-
000,000, or $1,500 per mile.
The President of one of the Elston Plank
Roads, in reply to some questions az to the weight
allowed to be carried on their road, answers that
no limit Is given, the only difficulty being to have
wagons built strong enough to carry the weight
that two horses can draw. One pair of horses
hauled, as an experiment, ten cords of wood for
several miles.
L We apprehend that the rumor in regard to
Mr. Wearrxit's intended compromise on the
Slavery question is not very well founded ; at
lead, if true, be must have changed his views very
considerably since Aug. 10, 1849, on which day
he thug expressed himself in in the course of a
speech in the U. 8. Senate :
"My opposition to the increase of slave.
ry in this country, or to the increase of
slave representation in Congress, is gener
al and universal. It has no reference to
the lines of latitude or points of the com
pass. I shall oppose all such extension
and all such increase, in all places, at all
times, under all circumstanses, even against
all inducements, against all combinations,
against all compromise."

of Wednesday last, says that the strike and
rioting on the canal, between that city and
Frankfort, is becoming sad and bloody e.
nough. ••
•
On Sunday evening, 24th inst., the riot
ers turned out about 400 strong, ,and re
newed their attack upon the shantees, a
gain driving out the women and children
who took refuge in the farm houses iu the
vicinity, chasing the men, committing oth
er violent acts. One workman.was shot
and very badly wounded, while peaceably
passing along the road.
Between 11 and 12 o'clock on Friday
night, the same party made another riotous
demonstration of a similar character, but,
if any thing, more violent. Information
was at once sent to the Sheriff at Her
kimer, and another armed posse of armed
citizenswas immediately dispatched to the
scene of riot. It appears Sheriff Felts and
Schein erliorn felt justified in resorting to the
last alternative, and part of the posse were
permitted to tire. Four of the rioters were
shot. One recieved a ball in the neck, (a
dangerous wouud,) another was shot
through the leg with a ball, another
through the hand, and the fourth, received
a charge 01 shot in his back.
The posse subdued all resistance, and
made about one hundred more prisioners,
whom they marched down to the jail at
Herkimer. Thirty eight had been taken
there before.
The diffictilty appears to be between
the Munstermen, or Corkonians, and Far
downers. The former from some diffi
culty with their,contractors made a strike
several weeks since, and, being the strong
er party, are determined also to prevent
the latter from working.
