ing the campaign, and vowed thntno

the carriage was kept covered and

disconsolate stable owner and he at
once resolved to place it at the dis
posal of his Governorship. But
again the chariot brought disaster.

crime of chattol slavery, and longed
for reposo. It sought to cover
them from sight by wicked compro- y
misses with the wrong which disturb
ed it's peace, but God held it to it's
duty until through conflict which
rocked and agonized the nation, tho
great crime was put away and
freedom was ordained for all.
It is said that if q majority of q
State are unable by physical force to
maintain their rights, they must be
left to political servitude. Is this q
doctrine ever before heard in our
history? It is shall prevail, it's con-
sequences wiz not long be confined
to South Carolina and Louisiana.
It is said that a Democratic House
of Representatives will refuse an
appropriation for the army of tho
United States, if the lawful Govern
mont Of South Carolina is main
tanned by the military forces. SUBJ
mission to such coercion marks the
degeneracy of the political party
or people which endures it. A
Government worthy tho name, q
political party fit to WELD power,
never before blanched at such q
threat. But the edict has gone
forth. No arguments or considora>
tions which yo,tr friends could prov
sent hayo sutficed to avert the dis
aster. No effective means of rosis-
tance to tho consummation of tho
wrong are left. The struggle can
be prolonged. My strict legal
rights are, of course, wholly unafs
fected by the action of the Presi-
dent No court of the State has
jurisdiction to pass upon tho title
of my Office. No lawful Legislature
can be convened except at my call.
If the use of these powers promised
ultimate success to our cause, I
should not shrink from any sacrifices
which might confront mo. It is o.
cause in which by the light of
reason and conscience q man might
we'll lay down his life. But to my
mind my present responsibility in.
wolves the consideration of the
effect of my action upon those
whose representatives L am. I have
hitherto been willing to ask you
Republicans to risk all dangers and
endure MI hardships until relief
should come from the Government
of the United States. That relief
will never come. I cannot ask you
to follow me farther. In my best.
judgment I can no longer serve YOU
by further resistance to the impend-
ing calamity. With gratitude to
God for the measure of endurance
with which He has hitherto inspired
me, with gratitude to you for your
boundless confidence in me, with
profound admiration for your
matchless fidelity to the cause in
which we have struggled, I now
announceto you and to the people
of the State that I shall no, longer
actively assert my right to- tho, cfice
of Governor of South Carolina.
The motives and purposes of the
President Of the United States in
the policy which compels me to my
present ecourse are unquestionably
honorable and patriotic. devoutly
pray that events may vindicata tho
wisdom of his action and that
peace, Justice, freedom and pros
perity may hereafter be the portion
of every citizen Of South Carolina.
