ern generals aHdsoldiers conquered Tor os

North. The Shareholder il forbidden to
put hIs foot on any part Of those wide do
mains. But the government of this Union,
having circumscribed the area Of slavery
hnd thus SGT a limit TO the power of the
South, is, It is plain, soon TO be used to
abolish the institution utterly. Our his.o-
~ anu our destiny arc now before us. Tho
Union has taken away our property, the
Union is proceeding 10 destroy us. How
then should we regard this Union, what
should be our course towards it Can any
causes be more ample for hatred; car any
duty be more plain than that of scycriny il ?

Now who are to do this act Southern
men, not Southern soil, have been robbed
and degraded and are threatened with
dangerH,-upon every Southern man rests
the duty of resenting those injuries and of
avcrting those dangers. No duty, however
general or universal, but is obligatory upon
individuals, and no man can cscapc con-
domination for tho neglect Of a duty by the
plea that his ncighbor has not performed It.
Shall a man not obey his conscience ill
he secs that others render a similar obcdi-
cncc! When therefore both Honor and
safety require the dissolution of this Union
shall the people OF. Son,h Carolina do what
it is right for them to do, or shall they put
it of until other States shall be willing to
do SO too? Joshua stood up before the con-
grcgatcd hosts Of Israel and told them that,
do as they would, he and his house would
serve the Lord.
Lie: every Caroiinian reflect that when
men are free. when they alone govern
themselves, each is responsible for tho acts
OF government; it will be his glory iflhosc
acts arc high and no5ic-his dishonor, his
humiliation, il they arc unworthy TO have
been performed by frccmcn.
If South Carolinians Shall look at their
duty, at what they owe to themselves and
to postcrity, and not at what is to be done
by other people, then our own times may
parallel the Revolution in great deeds ;hutif
