The DISAPPOINTMENT OF DISUNfON
II was well known here, at the time of tho
adoption of the English Compromise. that
many southern members Of Congress came in
to the measure with great reluctance. This
was not because that measure was in itself
particularly repugnant to them, but because
in their impatience to make something the ba-
sis OF a direct attempt at dsunion. they pre-
ferrod to try that question upon the issue of
the acceptance, or rejection. of Iecompton
pure and simple The more discreet among
them, however considered this a poor issue
to attempt disunion upon. as il had not been
possible to conceal from the reading portion
of the Southern people, that Leoompton was
not only wicked, but very bungling swim
die. So, upon the whole, it was concluded
to postpone dsunion to a more convenient
season, and until some better prctext could
be assigned for il than the non-acceptance by
Congress of Constitution, Of which no in
considerable portion of the South itself was
heartily ashamed
In a recent address to his constituents, Mr.
Mcqueen. of South Carolina. says;
"And, for one, had | believed that Georgia
or Alabama. or any other Southern State.
would have resisted, there would have been
an end Of my voting for any other bill than
the Presidents original Lccompton bill 81
because my mind and judgment has long been
made up, that the South can never again have
fair and full justice from the North in this
Conlederacy and had | believed that the
time had come when she would gird on the
habiliments of her own unquestionable power
/ to take care Of herself and vindicate her hon
or, | should have been contented TO come
home among my constituents, and never cast
another vote in the present Confederacy."
1t was not Lecompton, in its original pur-
