THE ADDRESS

The committee to ,ohich toas referred the
duty of preparing an Address to the peo-
pile Of the slareholding States upon the
subject ola Southern Organ, to be esiab-
hshed in the City Of Washington, put
forth the folio,oiag I,
FELLow-CITIzENs: A number of Sena-
tors and Representatives in Congress from
the Southern States of the Confederacy deep
ly impressed with a sense OF the dangers
which beset those States, have considered
carefully our means of self-defence within
the Union and the Constitution, and have
come to the conclusion that it is highly impor-
tant to establish in this city paper, which,
without reference to political party, shall be
devoted to, the rights and interests OF the
South, so far as they are involvedi in the ques-
tons growing out of African slavery. 10
establish and maintain such paper, your
support is necessary, and accordingly we
address you on the subject. IS
In the contest now going on, the const-
tutiona equality Of fifteen States is put in
question. Some sixteen hundred millions
worth OF negro property is involved directly,
and indirectly, though not less surely, ann
calculable amount OF property in other forms.
But to say this is to state less than half the
doom that hangs over you. Your social
forms and institutions-which separate the
European and the African races into distinct
classes, and assign to each different sphere
in society--are threatened with overthrow
Whether the negro is to occupy the same
social rank with the white man, and enjoy
equally the rights, privileges, and immune
ties of citizenship-in short, all the bonors
and dignities Of .society--is question Of
greater moment than any mere question Of
property can be.
Such is the contest now going on----a con-
test in which public opinion, if not the pre-
vailing, is destined to be most prominent
force and yet, no organ of the united inter
ests Of those assailed has as yet been es-
tablished, nor does there exis, any paper
which can be the common medium Tor an
interchange of opinions amongst the South
ern States. Public opinion, as it has been
formed and directed by the combined inHu-
ence of interest and prejudice, is the force
which has been most potent against us in
the war now going on against the institu-
ton Of negro slavery; and yet we have ta-
ken no effcctual means to make and MAIN
tain that issue with it upon which our safety
and perhaps our social existence depends.
Whoever will look to the history Of this
question, and to the circumstances un-
der which we are now placed, rrtst see
that our position is one Of imminent danger,
and one to be defended by all the means
moral and political, Of which we can avail
