Hon. j.. NJ. Keitt.

This gentleman has positively dsennea
reelection to Congress. ma lengthy
letter to his constituents, Medicines his
position uponpublic affairs. SNe copy the
concluding paragraphs;
In conclusion, 1 may be permitted to
Say, -da-not support Mr. Breollln-
ridge because 1 believe himto be a dlsun-
ionist. He is Union nan. On the
question of the Union, litfer from him
as widely as from Mr. Bell. [ support
him because agree witt him more nearly
on the principles on which the Govern
ment should be adminihercd. L shall be
for disunion if Lincolris elected, because
then Mr.. Buchanan Will be the last of the
Constitutional Presidents. Despite the
4 rancor of parties, tls bitterness OF faction,
and the slander of enemies, Mr.. Buchan-
ans Administrator has been pure and
upright. Loyal the Constitution, and
true to tho Republic; a statesman at home
and an America President in his inter
course with forign nations, he, with his
Cabinet, will lave to the world an exam
ple of fidelitya and patriotism. The last
of u line is oftn times as patriotic as the
first.
IfMr. Lirroln is. elected, I shall urge
disunion, beauss the South will be in dan
ger from tb principles and the policy Of
his administration. It is one ofthe essen
tai .charaSeristics of fanaticism, not to be
undeceived by experience. If the South
submits to Black Republican rule, her flu
s5ture. is settled A cloud of witnesses may
rise up to convict Abolilionism Of excess
aud terror; fields Of bootless and sicken-
ingslaughter may appeal against its hor-
nore, but still this party, encamped behind
the Government, will drive on to the con-
summation of it's aims. Slavery must be
in the keeping only of the South. The
Republican party would use the Union to
Withdraw it from such protection: Against
that party would, therefore, urge disun-
ion, to defend an institution guarded by the
records of the world; by the traditions Of
all mankind; by the logic history and the
fitness of things; and, without which the
South would dsink down into chaos. Slave
ry antedates all historic times, and orig
mates in the necessities of society. The
inspired Scriptures, which carry us back
to the sacred originals of man, unite it
with the rudiments of our social state,
and surround it with primitive images Of
the household relations, with spreading
ecrn-fclds and patriarchal furrows. 1t is
in the first records of the nation, which
we can trace back to the dawn of human
society it is in the heroicpoems of Greece;
it is in the hieroglyphics of Egypt and
Assyria; it is, too, in that-gIorious litcra-
9 ture which is the precious legacy of the
past to the present. Slavoholding Plato
and Marcus Tullius will outlive freesoil
