The LEADER OF THE DIsUNION PARTTY.-ln our
issue, on yesterday it was shown we think very
clearly, that Mr.. lancy at the time OF his writing
the Slaughter letter, was not only disorganzer,
but also contemplated revolutionzing the South by
cutting asunder the cords that bind together the
States of this confederacy.
To the attainment Of this end, his record proves
that he has been working aboriously faithfully and
energetcaly; and he has only been prevented from
making the issue of disunion before the people by
words of warning from those who are reputed to
exercise more discretion. During the summer, in
our Congressional District, between the Democratic
and Opposition parties, Mr. j. ID. Meadows, very
influential man residing in the county Of TallapooSa
being DESTROYS Of ascertaining the correct condition
of the political affairs of the country wrote letter
to Mr.. Yancey to get his views on the subject To
this letter Mr.. Yancey replied with long epistle,
from which we make the following extract:
"In 1850, advocated disunion three grounds,
viz: That in the month Of August of that year. the
federal government had admitted California as a
State, formed under the eesoil process Of squatter
sovereignty; had dismembered the slavehOlding
State of Texas and annexed part Of its soil to the
Territory Of New Mexico; and had abolished the
internal slave trade between the States and the Dis
trct Of Columbia, and had thus in effect destroyed
the constitutional compact of the Union.
The South, however, voted down the State rights
band with which acted, and since have not again
proposed or advocated such measure
upon tIat qutSuOH Que ny time, ana snail De
ready with the readicst believing at the same time
that sufficient causes exist for resort to that expe
diency even now, if it were expedient"
So it will be observed that Mr.. Yancy, by his
own admission, has advocated disunion on three
grounds, and having been defeated in every instance
quietly assentcd, though still indulging the hope
that another time would come. Do we not infer
this from his expression in the letter to Mr. Mead
ows, :" / bide my tme?" What other construction
can be placed upon itG
When another opportunity presents itself for dis
solving the Union, will he then advocate ity
So the leader of the dsunion party writes in June
1859, that upon the question of disunion he bides
his time, and is ready with the readiest believing
at the same time that sufficient causes exist for
sort to that remedy even now, were it expedient.
Now, we ask our readers if we have erred in pla-
eng Mr.. Yancey conspicuously in the disunion
camp? His past political record strengthens every
argument that has been made against him dis
unionist 1t thoroughly proves him to be an ultra
man, entertaining opinions that hostile to the
best interests Of the section in which he lives
