Gov. COLLIER, OF Alabama mas written IL very
terrible message, in which, after demOllshln5 the
COMPROMISE, he lets himself out after the fol-
lowing fashion:
assume that the right OF secession IS
a clear right reserved to the people OF each mem
Der of the confederacy upon entering INTO the
Union The tenth article of the amendments TO
the Constitution declares that =" the powers not
delegated to the United States by the Consttu-
ton nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserY
ed to the States respectively, or to the people.
A threat to employ force by the federal govern
ment, to coerce the Southern States or any one Of
them into obedience to the behests OF Congress
or the Executive of the Union, excites insuppres-
able emotions of Indignation. So far from intimi-
dating, it is calculated to widen the breach, and
drive to desperation people who are sensitive IN
the extreme to q sense OF wrongs inflicted by
those who were under the strongest obligations TO
be their friends.
In our present position the South may do much
To make the North feel that we are not poWeriess
Let us absolve ourselves as soon as p9Ssioic rom
NIL dependence on our Northern brethren-thelr
reenect for US is the dictate Of interest and not
feeling Our resources, agricultural, industrial
md commercial are almost ncalcnlable. Our
cotton, raw and manufactured, would give US as
mach of the commerce OF the world as interest
or ayariCe could desire.
We can grow and manufacture wool to ali IN
in,ited extent-and our iron, coal, marble and
lime il quite sufficient to supply the demand OF
the w estern Hemisphere. Let US aVail ourselves
If our exhanstiess resources. 10 thls emu we
should abstain as far possible from the use OF
Northern manufactures. Let US nave our own
carriage rakers shoemakers, clothers, matters,
Sc. / ct us give a preference to our merchants
who are importers or who purchase their goods III
our Southern cities OF the importers Let our
merchants become exporters and importers ana
car people discourage the employment OF North
ern shipping. 70 carry ont these suggestions,
wo should endeaYor to effect such modlhcations
of the revenue and navigation laws as make DIS
ordinations prejudicial to the South and the
legislation Of this State so far as the Constitution
will permit, must favor the enterprise
In addition to this let US improve our a9ricul-
tUre. OMEN our rivers extend our plank roads and
Ratlroads so as to cheaper and facilitate trans
uoftation and travel All these things being done,
and faithful schoolmasters dispersed throughout
the land. offering business education ut the low
est practicable price, and we shall become most
powerful happy, independent, and il | mistake
not, united people.
Let us bencetorth esteem it duty to withdraw
our patronage from Northern schools and colleges.
We who have taken the trouble to inform our
seyes all know that the South furnishes equal IA
elites for thorough training, both Of the head
and heart, at much less cost.
Why should our people 90 north In search OF
pleasure and health Who that has visited the
mountain regions Of Alabama, Georgia, the Caro-
iinas and Vlrginia or the seaboard OF the south
west, does not know that he may find mineral
waters in abundance, OF unsurpassed variety and
eiHcacy-deghtful for sea bathing, society seen
cry and comfort equal to any in the United
States Does not selfrespect and a just appre,
citation OF the South require that we should ex-
mend our money at orr own resorts Of fashion
pleasure and health
It's really strange that the South should have
=. ! tt,a al.
should not have found ont her resources and CON
seguent power, until she had enriched the North,
and the North, by spirit Of antagonsm, forced
her 10 adopt coGnteryallng measures Tor selt,pro'
lection.
The contamination of the measures which the
fanatics Of the North have been pressing for years
upon Congress- and which are not sufficiently re-
sisted by the gast majority of cur brethren there,
who profess to differ with them, would desolate
the South. She would retrograde incidentally in
morals and religion, and instead OF being the rich
est country in the world in agricultural produc-
tons would become poor indeed. No class OF
the community would suffer so much by such
state OF things as the people who are dependent
alone upon their daily manual labor for the sup
port Of themselves and families. They would 90
