and quite conversant with his political opinions, have
ever considered him dsunonist. Believing it to be
my duty have hesitation in responding to his re-
quest. will premise, however, that will not pre-
tend to repeat the words used by Judge Upshur on
any of the many occasions on which have heard
him express his opinions. Were to attempt it, |
should be fearful Of subectng myself to the imputa
ton of having too good memory; and should feel
that deserved it, SHALL therefore, merely state my
impressions, in which have the utmost confidence
1 have always been opposed to notification as wild
and destructive in its tendency He, on the contrary
has always commended that it was necessary safe
guard against the violation of the Constitution and the
Union remember that read some years ago two
pamphlets written by him under the signature OF
g Locke" and Napier, and so far from advocating
disunion, he argued with great power that nulhca-
ton was the rightul remedy, as it would enable
State to resist the unconstitutional expressions of the
Federal Government without resorting to secession,
or to any other remedy destructive of the Union, to all
the benefits of which every State was entitled by the
Constitution of the United States have frequently
heard him since that time earnestly contending for
the doctrines, in conversation and Otherwise
was utterly astonished, therefore, when heard that
Mr.. Bolts had charged him with being openly and
avowedy in favor of dissolution of the Union, with
out limitations or conditions.

DEAR Sir: Having resided for the last seven years
in your judicial district have had frequent opporiu-
mites Of becoming acquainted with your political OPT
mons and on no occasion did ever hear you utter
sentiment which would warrant the charge that you
were an advocate for an Immediate and unqualified
dissolution ofihe Union. In no part of the State and
in no company could you have discussed these sub
iects with more freedom and boldness than you were
accustomed to do in the county where reside. A
large majority of the people there were stauch null
fers prepared to sustain the course of South Carolina
in her stand against an unconstitutional law. With
gentlemen Of that party, as well know, you are in
The habit of conversing political subjects without
any sort of reserve or disguise and while we regard
ed you as ardently attached to the doctrines of The
Stale Right school, certain It Is your conversation
fearless and bold as il ever was, left such impress
sion on my mind to the character ofyour opinions
like that now ascribed to you in recent communities
ton which appeared in the National lntelligencer
You are at liberty to this letter in such way al
you may please.
With much respect, your obedient servant

have had of knowing your opinions in regard to the
value of the Union, and what understand them
to be-
In the course of the last twelve years have very
met with you while attending several of the Courts in
which you presided and still more often in the soc-
ETY. of Norfolk and Williamsburg. We have travel
led together have had the pleasure of seeing you
at my house and my office and we have correspond
ed by letter 1t has rarely happened that on any of
these occasions political topics were not the subject
OF conversation particularly the measures OF General
JacksoD's administration On these, in conneXlon
with notification and on the subject of abolition,
have often heard you express your opinions, boldly
and warmly yet it never occurred to me that you
were foe to the Union. On the contrary, Ihave re-
garded your strong opposition to the Proclamation,
abolition, and the many other subjects have heard
YOU discuss springng from your attachment to the
Union, whose integrity you considered to be in dan
