HIRAM kErenUn said he concurred the remarks Of tho
Chain man upon the constitution of country. But
should not think that all was gone because President
had been chosen contrary TO wishes We had stll
congress and the Judiciary opposed 10 him, and he
persuaded that IN the ensuing Congress the majority
against him would be increased The party opposed u
the came INTO the contest under circ instances
Of great disadvantage They broken into fragmenss
Give US time % organize aud combine, and will put
down any party that should attempt To do what tho
south fear the republican party VIII do. (Applause.)
To our fellow citizens then at the south say do
not want you 70 place Us in false position. We have
given 200 600 votes for the Union and the constitution,
and want you 10 stand by in the Union.
We can riget this wrong in the unon-only We
require time Give ~ time and we will show you that it
is not true that the majority Of the people Of the North
hate your institutions. (Applause) The idea that
Union because they have been beaten in two
vasses-why, II il not Amercan-( lit is against
the spirit Of republican liberty He appealed 70 our fell
low citizens at the south IT, stand by the couserva
tive men Of the North in this crisis for
the sake Of the constitution and the Union
II IL true, he said that tho spirit OF III constitution has
been violated but instead OF breaking up this
ment let bring the constitution before tn people, and
when is fully understood the South will have fun
dress under il (Appause.) The idea Of breaking up
the Union ought not To be entertained Let beseech
fclow citizens OF the South consider tn interests
Of the country It's past history its iiustrious founders,
and see II We cannot hirmonize and keep tog ,ther
And whsn We have trd and found that cannot IL viii

whether south Carolina to b. but appeal
TO the people o Georgia ana other cotton states tney
