honest man who intends to support
Vallandigham, to examine the record
for himself, and see what Vallandig-

have been, and not to depend upon
what any political speaker or leader
says of him.
We ask the friends Of the Union to
take this record and distribute it, Civ
ing the page on which the following
extracts may be found:
VALLANDIGHAM A SOUTHERN
,.l SYMPATHIzER.
In speech delivered in the Con-
gress of the United States, entitled
There is q West" Mr. Vallandigham
made the following declaration which
will be found on page 43 Of the record {:
~ am not Northern man. Ihave
little sympathy with the North, no
very good feeling for, and am bound
to her by no tie whatsoever, other than
what once were and ought always to
be the strongest of ties--a common Ian
guage and common country. x 4 4
Then, sir, am not Southern man
cither,-although in this unholy and
most unconstitutional crusade against
the South, in the midst of the invasion
arson, instruction, and murder, to
which she has been subject and with
which she is still threatened-with the
torch of the incendiary and the dagger
of the assassin suspended over her
my most cordial Sympathies are ,cholly
NTH her"
VALLANDIGHAM a RE-EATER
On the same page he declares:
II am as good a Western fire eater
asthe hottest salamander in this house. +"
YALLANDIGHAM A DISUNION-
IST AND A SECESSIONIST.
On the 7th OF February, 1861, Val
landigham introduced in the House OF
Representatives a Joint Resolution,
proposing amendments to the Constitu-
ton, which amendments begin as fol-
lows:
"Article XIII. Sec. /. The United
States arc divided into four sections as
follows"
One of these sections was to be
named the SOUTH, and was composed
fthe present slave States and of all
TERRITORY acquired east of the Rio
Grande and South of latitude $50 30>
The I'd section of the proposed amend
ment provides that before any bill OF
resolution can pass it must have ma
Fl Ijority of the votes ofthe Senators from
each section, thus giving to the dicta-
torial and aggressive politicians Of the
Southern section the power to prevent
legislation. The power being given
them to prevent legislation even
against the combined vote of the three
remaining sections, they must have the
power to compel the Northern sections
: to accept such measures as they may
, dictate, or submit to division of the
, territory. This power is the power Of
secession, which is given them by Ar,
ticlc XIV:
No State shall Secede withom tht
consent of the Legislatures of the States
Of the section to ,0hich the State propo'
sing to Secede belongs. The Presidenl
shall hare poCer to adjust Nth Seccdins
States all questions arising BY reason o.
secession but the terms of adjustment
shall be Submittedto the Congress for theiI
approval before the same shall be rdlid.
The resolution will be found on pagt

: cord published by his friends.
