ENCOUNTER. l!on!piaa Il crime. whom the eam-
migsaa nf II may be avoided by any possible
means save self Sacrifice, but ceases to DO
crime when necessary 10 self-preservalion. Be-
cession is measure which no State may rashly
or for slight cause resort TO, while, at the same
time, il is a measure which every Southern
State may, sooner or later find it necessary to
its social safety aud existence TO adopt. With
dangers so threatening in prospect, and neies-
sites so urgent muttering in the Northern
horizon, il is tfeasonto the South to assert alb.
solutism IN the federal government, or IN Con-
gress which may soon be a mere conclaye OF ia
natics, or in a majority Of Northern legislators,
whose diseased con;ciences, spurious philan-
thropy, and religious enthusiasm, may any day
mpel them to strike down our institutions and
our rights.
The remedy of the South for the violations
Of the Constitution Is peaceful secession. The
definition of secession as advocated by the old
republican school of Virginia, as resulting from
the n,ture OF the confcieracy, as illustrated by
the whble history of the Constitution, and as
essential to the independ nee of the South, Is
the ultimate remedy aohich the States haze for
uiolatiohs Of The Constitution
Mr.. CLAWS recent weak letter Of dotage TO cit
liens of New York, grdtuitously abusing the
South when invited to strike a last blow at
Northern abolition states the right Of secession
in terms in which it is not maintained by any
authoritative advocate of tho doctrine. None
but uotard could ever have defined the doc
trine ID these words: " 1t assumes. that any one
of the thirty one States composing the Union,
whereverof however situated, whether In the
interior or on the Ter, has right upon
its own separate will, and according to the
dictates of its exclusive judgment, to withdraw
from the Union whenever it peases." Against
tho doctrine 80 stated, Mr.. Clay levels three
newspaper columns of bad logic. Such is not
the doctrine. The doctrine, as advocated by its
own supporters, simply maintains secession to
be an ultimate remedy for violations of the
Constitution, reserved by and inherent in the
States, which we're the original parties to the
compact. 1t presupposes violations of the Con-
stitution. 1t presupposes the exhaustion of
other remedies, and it vests the right Of judging
of the fact Of violation and the fact of the in
suficiency of milder remedies, in the States, be-
cause they are the parties to the organic com
pact, and being sovereign, are subordinate to no
other tribunal of arbitration.
