Mr. LAMAR commits very great error
an error ia which he is not "lonc--thc more
the pity. There is too great dilhruHy IN
the pre.ea, condition Of this country TO DC
removed ty t,orc or settled by a fear and
shake Of the hand. There arc serious and
solid troubles ahead which the oily sentences
of the orator cannot sing into eternal! sleep.
When Mr.. LAMAR thinks his >yTcn sons. has
swept ali troubles away IT bnt turns into L
lament for troubles revived. sorrows re-
ncwcd.
The difficulty in the way Of M. LANAR'S
pcace-:h.; peace which is 20 cordial! hailed
from the No,th-iS that il is founded upon
the most unreliable basis. II rests upon the
sands. X i founded IL universal equality
OF privilege and race. which is u foundation
as dciu.ivc u tie sand i.self-a> false As tie
quick. d,--:trd this country need hope for
the duration of no cdiucc built on such dc.
ccpliye ground.
We say lha; the South has upon lis back
that old man Of The sea described by SiNDAn
the sailor. She has really what the ing

and she can never recover her iull 20" cr>,
her dignity, and her grace with any Such
burden. When Mr.. LAMAR c!cqlrnt!y IT.
cocuiz.> i settlement which leaves such 4
hurtheH uron his beloved South he enters
into foolish treaty which never cs,n la>t-
which cs:u3o. secure to his people anything
rl value.
No nan feels more kindly towards The rc-
gro than lie writer Of this, yet no man
knows letter than he that The happiness Of
the negro sid u the white man Is well, re-
quire. :hci, separation. IL does The same re-
gui.c tic >e;,a. alton Of the white man and
the Indian. Nay mere for the lEGEn is Il
Higher pc OF man than The African, and
therefore more cntiticd to Cqutlily with white
l,c separate, Inat each may reach the highest
lIappiueSS i pretty we'll settled ; but that it
j. absolutely Leccs.ary that the white man
shall be separate from Tie negro to reach The
h'-bcs; clS iIi1:.t1icn Of Which he is suscclti.
tie We believe 10 he a fact undi>put,d and
irdSpuiahlr. The whole Union should not
only knQT this hut desire il.
There IS an incomwtihlity and diSsim-
larity OF race sutlicien;l: strong to establish
an irgecouc,iablc difference between The
raccS-a d!h.4cnce which, rs long as they are
equal before Tie law, cannot b. rcconciled 10y
political measures. and much less ~ such
vain po!!;iua litncie> rs those Of Nr. LAMAR
and the whole class Of poets and orators
who agree wiki him.
This the country -ht TO know now. II
il does ne. il will have it 10 learn. There is
no possibility OF the restoration OF peace and
order and pro. perky rs long lis the two races
live together upcu terms Of equality. The
peace and happiness of beth demand that
they shall - scialatcd- i've apart-aEd TIA;
each shall govern itself according 10 it own
taste AID di>iiuc: mcutai aud physical dis
position. Any statesman or orator who
teaches an IDEA different from ibis, he he
from the North or from the sou'h-bc BE-
NJ. LAMAR or anybody cl>e-lcacAcs that
whc.l is ..,i>e, and which time will prove to
IL vain aud foolish.
The rstes were placed separately upon the
cath bv the Creator. They can never
dwell together i'll l state OF equality Will
,,cacc and success. The white man is the
highest Of he five types Of man. He must
rule. He must be the exclusive ro>se>sor
o. the territory, or all Others in it must be
controlled AID governed by him. Equality
CT race is impossible: equality in the GOV
crnment between races distinct is Il great
faliAcy, destructive of the happiness OF man,
equally fatal to any two distinct races that
may by the agency OF man ne brought TO.
ycthcr in the SAME political community.
Therefore, Mr.. LAMAR is only good
hearted orator. He is no statesman.
