tatIycs, aud if there Is anything they
are opposed to, it is the one man

ton aud political power !, given to
the Congress Of the United State,
and no one else. Now he would say
that he did not know that in that
great body there was any resentment
against any portion OF the people Of
this country, All they wanted wl.
10 vindicatc legislation and give So
curity and Justice to all, nothing else.
There had never been a Congress
whose acts had been more generally
approved than the present, and the
next Congrcs. had been modelled like
the present. Truth was truth and
let every man understand it. lie
might speak many pleasing things in
their ears that would leave a pleas
ing impression, but he had never de
ceived mortal man and he never
would. lie would tell those present,
that in their deliberations Congress
had ]cnunciatcd certain principle.
They had appealed to the people on
these principles and had been Sus-
tanned, and there was no hope that
Congress would rcccdc one inch. lie
did not say this to them for the pur-
pose of venting their opposition. II
was fair antagonism, and he did not
want to deceive them. lie did not
speak Of the people Of Tennessee, for
they had got their rights under Gov
eminent; but other States had re-.
sisted what had been asked Of them
They had not called on Congress foI
better terms, but had thrown thos,
offered out as totally worthless. Al
that was asked was the principles o.
right and justice to all. Time Wa
passing, and the fiat had gone ont
and these principles would be OIL
served. These were the sentiment.
. of the people Of the North and %
Congress. lie had declared the pur.
poses and the sentiments of the PEG.
pie Of the North, and had laid then
, before them face 10 face, and II car
ricd ont they would secure union an,
harmony, rs they were the principle
of constitutional liberty.
