Noble spirit! thou hast passed from among us
But even now, perhaps, thou art looking down upon
the scene in which the business of thy enlightened
views is so strikingly aud woully confirmed
an has come to pass as thy warning voice threaten
cd All, save only TO that one thing which thou
ditst deem impossible becnusc thy sense of Justice
reyoed nj the thought. The adnionitions of thy
wisdom were unheeded-likc the idle wind they
passed by the ears OF ham TO whom they were par-
cularly addressed. The policy was adopted: his
weight turned the scales. The "mighty combina-
ton" followed and for the last twelve years. its
power on the floor of Congress has proved resist
esS,-lts cars deaf as those which thy prophet voice
strove 10 penetrate. BY the measures which il has
dictated, millions upon millions lave been seducod
have been forced into investments which, otherwise.
they would never have become cntangled in And
now when thy forebodngs upon as, there are
those who, suddenly and without moments warn
ing, ,couM open the flood gatesn aud overwhelm
IN one common ruin every victim to the seductons
OF inns accurscd system. And who are they p
winch is the man who, above all Others has been
the most unring and the most efficient i'm the work
OF Iniiatnlng the Southern mind, by the most pre-
posterously exaggerated pictures of the very bur-
dens winch hoN didSt show in their reality, and

VINO Is he who stops nj nothing; who deems even the
migrant mtSrepreScniati0HS which am now exposing
innocent aud praiscwOrtIy, if we can but be madden
ed TO the point OF insisting the Indispensable con-
diton TO the preservation of this Union upon that
very measure which thou didst pronounce impossible:
and which he would have us insist upon because
he koioS it Ia be so? IS he TO tcon hJ cords mere
specially addressed. IL is HE, Tie VERY MAN ioho in
spite Of all tiy Efforts TO 0uer them, FIXED THOSE
BURDENS UPON US. Ii is the very man, who by af.
ieciing magnRnimous disregard of local interests
was then cour,ing that popularity in other sections of
me Union than that with whose interests and whose
political weight he was entrusted which was neces-
sary TO the qualification of the wicked lust Of power
ana distinction that had already depraved his nature
That popularity he succeeded in acquiring; and it
was well nigh securing to him the object for which
1t was courted. But il brought him near it, only to
make the modification of disappointment the more
poignant, and the subsequent blasting of his homes
the more lntolerabe; and to turn the venom which
possessed his bosom into hate equally inordinate
ana INDEBTEDNESS equally reckless. IL is he,-the
very artihccr of this box Of Pandora who worse
than the Heather personfcation of the same lust of
power and the same yndictivcness now seeks tile
Srathcaon OF those passions, in tearing from us even
nope WHICH s fabulous prototype eit for the couso-
iailon OF his victims.
