JrFF. DAVIS AND HIS noe.

From JEFF. Davis's Speech at Jsckson, Mss.l |
After what has happened during the last
two years my only wonder is that we con-
sented TO live for 80 long q time in associa-
ton with such niscreants, and have loved
so much Government rotten to the core.
We're itcver TO be proposed again TO enter
into Union with such people, I could no
more consent to it than to trust myself in q
den of thieves.
from vsllsndighsm's late Speech in the House Of
Representatives.
But ought this war to continue! an
swer no--not day, not an hour. What

Swer ne, no, no
From JEFF. Daviss SereEade Speech in Richmond J
Out of this victory is to come that dissat-
isfaction in tho Northwest which will rive
the power of that section; and thus we see
in the future the dawn-iirst, separation in
the Northwest from the Eastern States; then
dscord among them. watch will paralyze
the power of both; then for US peace and
prosperity.

| Representatives.
Believe me, and accept it, as you did not

the day that divides the North from the
South, that sefsame day DEGREES eternal

will not ask whether the Northwest
can consent to Separation from the South.
Never Nature forbids. Sir, we
can not, ought not, will not separate from
! the South.
! From jeff Daviss late Message to his Congress !
The determination of this people has,
with oaUh succeeding month, become more
unalterably fixed to endure any sufferings,
and continue any sacrifices, however pro-
longed, until their right to selfgovernm ent
and the sovereignty and independence of
these States shall have been triumphantly
vndicated and firmly established.
From valIandieham's late Speech
Stop fighting. Make an armistice-no
formal treaty. Withdraw your army from
the seeded States.
From the Richmond Enquirer
The suggestion that the reward of all the
sacrifices and sufierings of our people is to
he basoly discarded for a connection with
Yankees, is not cndurabe, oven as u Jest
From Ysllandigham's Speech.
And let not tho States now called Con.
federste insist upon separation and indepen-
dence.
lrToin tut W nR.
We have committed many errors in our
treatment of the Yankees. Not the least
has been in regarding them M something
better tlian what they are, They are by
nature menials, and fitted only for menial
duties. They are in open and fragrant in.
surrection against their natural lords and
masters of the South. \
When they are again reduced to subjcc.
ton and taught to know their place. we
must take care to put such trammels about
them that they will never have an oppor.
tunity to play their tricks again.
from Valandigham's Speech
The pooplo of the froo States are now, or
are fast becoming satisfied that the price
of the Union is tho utter suppression OF
Abolitionism or anti.slsvery AS political
element.
<
They are ready now, if have not greatly
misread the signs of the times, to return to
the old constitutional and actual basis Of
fifty years ago-three-ifths rule of repre-.
" scntation, speedy return of fugitives from
labor, equal rights in the territories, nc
more slavery agitation any ywhere. and tran
Sit and temporary sojonrn with slaves, with
out molestation, in the free States. With
out all these there could be neither peace
nor permanence to restored Union ol
States part slaye and part free" With it
the south. in addition to all the other great
and multiplied benefits of unian, would be
far more secure in her slave property, heI
domestic institutions, than under a sepa
rate Government,
