Every Of the above States, when
they passed those laws, placed them
selves beyond the pale Of the Constitu-
ton, and virtually dissolved their con-
n%ection with the Union! Yet no attempts
have been made to force them to abide
by the laws, and compel them to yield
obedience to the stipulations of the gen
eral compact. Nothing Of the sort. The
~outraging section appears to enjoy es-
pecial immunity; but let the cruelty az
grieved, the wantonly outraged and the
causelessly robbed section presume to
discuss the necessity of securing their
own safety by resorting to their re-
served, inalienable rights, and these
violators Of all laws, constitutions, unions
and compacts, lift up their hands in holy
horror and say that the Union must be
preserved, the Constitution obeyed, and
the laws enforced! The Devil can quote
Scripture when it suits his Internal pur.
poses; and so do the Black Republicans
refer to the Constitution, the Union and
the laws, when they contemplate some
other scheme of wrong, outrage and
s%poliation. [Crescent.

B6-On Monday, the 18th November,
1850, a meeting of the citizens of the
parish of Pointe Coupee, without dis.
t~inction of parties, was held at the
Courthouse of the parish. Judge 7. j.
Cooley, having been called to the Chair
by reclamation, addressed the meeting
to the following effect:
That it is proper that there should be
an expression Of opinion on the part of
the citizens Of the different parishes, in
relation to the position of affairs, result
ing from the recent Presidential election.
It is important that we should act with
due ~deliberation, but, at the same time,
with decided irmness. 1t is also desir-
GUS that we should present but one
front to the enemies of the South, and,
therefore, that the expression Of the
opinion Of this meeting should he unbi-
assed by any political prejudices or DIFF
~ferences Of opinion, which may have
existed previous to the election, as to
the candidate that should have been
voted for by the South.
MI. w. Beatty being then called on,
said that he was delighted with the evi.
dences Of unanimity among the people
of the parish, On the subject Of resistance
to the sectional oppression Of the North,
rs was exhibited in the composition Of
the present meeting. in which men Of
all stripes Of political opinion seemed
proud to participate. Mr. Beatty dwe1t
on the imperative necessity that existed
for immediate and armed organization
of the men of the South, If they would
avoid danger, domestic n external, or
brave successfully the menaces Of the
enemies Of our institutions.
Judge +. Fl. Farrar her addressed
the meeting in an eloquent appeal to
their feelings as S%outlncrners, hesceching

nsTAll the Northern States, with the
exception of New Jersey, voted for Lin
coin. AS he is fully as odious to the
South and just as dangerous to her in
situations as William Fl. Seward would
have been, the fact of his election, by an
overwhelming majority, is full of por-
tentous significance. 1t shows, beyond
all question or pcradventure, the un-
mixed sectional animosity with which an
immense majority of the Northern people
regard US of the South. In connection
with this, there is another fact, not as
generally known as it ought to be, which
we propose to lay before the Southern
public. The Constitution of the country
recognizes slaves IS property; the laws
of Congress recognize slaves as proper
ty; the decisions of the Supreme Court
recognize slaves as property; and the
Constitution, the laws and the court de-
clare that runaway slaves shall be re-
stored to their wners But how are
the Constitution, the laws and the courts
regarded in nine great Northern States?
Let us see. Here is a list of penalties
prescribed by certain Northern Legisla-
lures to such Southerners as venture to
make legal endeavors to reclaim their
prODerty in those States:
