from this singular production

the following official records, the Republican Cite.

treaties Of the United States with the Indians.

Men Of the South, 1--WE speak to the independ-
ent, intelligent, reHecting men Of the South, not
70 the party hacks, whose highest ambition is to
do the bidding of political demagogues and trick
sters you familiar with the efforts Of the organs
and leaders Of the Democratic party at the South
TO place Douglas in power. They know his senti.
ments they know he Is now and has always been
Free-soiler, an open and avoWed advocate Of that
most odiOns doctrine, squatter sovereignty; they
know, too that Buchanan holds the same opinions
now that Douglas does; and yet you are daily and
hourly invoked 70 support him. WHAT think you,
Southern men, Of the conduct Of the leaders and
organs Of the Southern Democracy? Are you
willing to endorse their action, and are yon ready
to approve the odious squatter sovereignty doe
trine Of Douglas and Buchanang III 40, You are
ready to sacrifice the rights Of the South at the
shrine Of party You are, your own leaders being
the judges, guilty Of " treache-y to the South"
Pause, then, and reflect, take new observation,
and ascertain into what port yoa are drifting, when
you find yourselves side by side with the Van
Burens and Buffalo platform men, and advocating
the identical principles.
