of the President whether he sanctions the con-

This was all she claimed, and for calling upon
her sister States to meet her in council for the
purpose of deyising the means of preserving
these rights, her people are denounced as agita-
tors and disunionists! And by whom! By
those who, regardless of the Constitution which
they have sworn TO support, have attempted 10
deprive us of what they know to be our own.
And even some Of our own citizens, who IN their
blind party zeal forgetful OF the Consultation
and the cearest principles of justice, have joined
in the false and unholy charge. 49,
They call on us TO agree 70 compromise
which. not only has the effect Of depriying the
South of all share in the territory acquired from
Mexico, but also of about one tflftf or TINT p0r-
ton of Texas secured to the South by that COM
pact of annexation. And what do we get by the
compromise We get the abolition of the slave
trade in the District of Columbia; the acknowl-
edgnent of the power of Congress to make a
discrimination between slaves and other property
also the power to free slaves by an act of Con-
gress and also the power to pass laws, author
izing the slave, by virtue of law of Congress,
tolArraign his master beforr the courts OF the
country, at the masters expense to try the right
by which he is held to service. Once yield this
power to an unscrupulous majority in Congress,
and where is its exercise to stop! What is this
but an unconditional surrender Of every thing in
dispute? And we are to be consoled with the
declaration that it is ncxpedient to abolish sla-
very in the District of Columbia Ask the
friends of this measure if it does us justice, and
they will tell you no but it is. the best we can
get Seven millions of freemen can get any
thing which is constitutional and right. That
number of people, conscious of their rights and
determined to maintain them. can never be en-
shaved. The right is on our side; and il, because
we maintain it, the North dissolve the Union, we
shall regret it, but cannot help it. AUnionwhict
can only exist by the surrender of the dearest
rights of one half of the States, is not worth
preserving. But / feel confident that the una
nimity of feeling and purpose exhibited by tins
Convention will not only preserve onr rights
but also the Constitution and Union. bg-o4gzE
