represents seven Southern States. OF the
twelve millions OF people Of the south,
about six millions are In principle the con-
stitucnts Of The men Who will assemble In

four millions are disfranchssed, bound and
gagged as truly as they were when slaves,
and in most parts Of the South could only
send delegates TO this Convention at tue risk
Of their own lives and OF tho livcs Of The del
eEates. This is D beautiful state of things In
a Republic-in the model American Republic,

1orth the Federal Government shall protect
It's citizens IN every State, aud not allow
them to be oppressed BY tic State Govern
1ncut- This is the principle OF the Freed !

wM and saved the nation and the Unlun. No
Southern Convention has ever yet met to
honor the principle Of the equal rights VI a1l
men. This will be the first convention Of
the Southern Republican party.
