that Douglas Has csteel1rd eheret By j6Fg
body Of Northern Democracy. The most dams
ging and demagcgical portion Of biz harangu
Was ~ follows:
We are told BY some 81 them, and think b,
NE Senatsr from Geofgis aInong thc number
that the recognition BY their section Of the Sena
ator from Illinois with his present Territorial
views q their candidate for the Presidency xoul,
be tantamOnnt to surrender Of that right; hcnc,
their opposition 70 the nomination Of that Sena
tor. Well sir, Northern Democrats thinkin,
with me are likewise opposed to his nomination
because we deem his territorial views SECTIONAL,
unjust and unconstitutional. Yet these view
are not adverse TO any constitutional right Of ou
section. They can only be made operative agains
the South. He cannot lie nominated withou
Southern votes If the South choose 10 nOmi
nate him, Northern Democrats cannot take an,
sectional exception to him, and may we'll pcrmi
him TO carry out his views to whatever extent b,
may; for while we will not surrender any consti
tutional right Of our own section, We will not op
pose the surrender by it Of any such right in thu
South, especially when its surrender il to be Il
the detriment Gf its own citizens and TO our ben
efit II citizens of the South are disposed II
maintain their constitutional rights, there arr
those in the North who will aid them to the ex
tent Of their ability, and for the reason that un
der the Constitution we would expect similar ait
from the South if our rights were threatened, ant
such aid necessary. Such was the mutual agree
ment of cur fathers; such the bond. But ii the,
voluntarily surrender their rights We Of thu
North viii not accept the surrender - uncondi
tional-never to be recalled; and use the power
i bestows upon us as gift never to be reclaimed
An army may be defeated In battle; but II, in it,
retreat it preserves Ice discipline and retain ii
munitions Of war, il commands the respect ever
Of its enemies the sympathy and aid Of it, friends
because Of its readiness and ability to renew the
struggle. and perhaps to successfully prosecute
1t; but If that army yield without battle, and es
pecialy if it invite and receive ~ its commander
one who, though under the garb Of friendship
has previously proclaimed his intention to deprive
its members ola portion ofthrir rights and their
liberties, il becomes disorgaizcd. surrenders i,s
means OF defence without any equivalent, with
out any consideration, has not the respect Of its
enemies, and foife:ts the sympathy and aid Of
its friends. A people may be compelled to TEN.
porary submission, but compulsory submission is
always associated in the estimation ,f the world
with the idea Of the ,rN upon the part of those
thus compelled to submit to throw of the yoke
upon the first occasion; and with an outside sym
patty which is promptly manifested in the form
of material aid, when the ,riN becomes manifested
by acts. But if that same people put the yoke
upon their own necks, invite the tyrant among
them, he will not regard their rights and the
world will not deem them entitled to or worthy
ofthe rights and liberties they have thus tamcly
given away; they can expect no aid, they will oh.
tain none, in any spasmodic effort they may sub
make for the recovery Of those rights.
: If the South should nominate the Senator al
luded to, Mr.. Douglls,l with his present views,
the entire North will deem the act an expression
Of willingness upon their part that his views shall
become the future settled policy Of the Govern
ment; the united North will act upon that policy,
carry it out to the full, and no aid must be ex
pected BY the South from any portion Of the
North III any effort they may there after make to
prevent the progress OF that policy to the end
When by such act it establishes his policy, the
South, and the Senator from Illinois, fMr. Doug
as, will have done more to accomplish the IA
voritc and avowed scheme ofthe Republican par
y than any effort Of that party could have done
the scheme Of surrounding the Southern States
With free territory, and starving out their inst-
utions; for under that policy, organize territory
