Then, sir, what win be my programme here,
for beg to say that our Southern friends have
placed us in the wrong Ny programme would have
been that this whole Convention should have re-
manned together; that we should have adopted q
national platform, and then placed national
man upon it. Then would have sent all my
brethren home from here TO do battle for our ma
tional flag, for that national platform, and for
our national nominee. IF supported BY us, our
Northern brethren would be able to 60 home and
be enabled to breast the storm of abolition and
TO save our rights. Then, sir, you would have
no cause for apprehending the election Of an alb
clifton President by an abolition party which
proposes to administer the Government on
higher law than the Constitution. And if that
party we're triumphant, you have had case
made out upon which all Southern men could
unite. Then Alabama could with good cause have
called upon her Southern friends to go forth to
battle, and in that conflict, if any man struck
harder than /. it would be because he had more
strength il any one struck faster than /, it would
be because his arm did not describe the same
space We should then have had the aid, not
only Of united South, but of all our Northern
friends who are in council with us to-day. We
should have had the aid Of gallant Illinois, not
only by the hallot-hox, but when the time for
assistance through the ballot, box had passed, by
the rife and cartridge-box.
