upon the rights Of the subor-

to Increase and grow. We have seen
how rapidly it has done so, and with
how little resistance offered, during the
last three years. Only by means Of the
doctrine of State-rights, which 80 many

to refrain from asserting until 9 safer op'
portunity, can this continual eulsrge.

can that doctrine, the issues dependent
on it, tie principles of the republication
of the days of Jefferson and Madison
have become obsolete. Let US convince
the people of the South, at least, of thell
truth, now that they are ready to be
convinced, and when the evils of Con
