speech of (lie Ellon. IE. II. IlSictt.
After the unanimous pn.trn/e <?/" the Hill call in / n
(Tbnveit'lO'i of South Ottralinn, to .trreUr from
the Virion. Delivered in Columbia, \itveinber
10th, lbti'J.
Mr Illicit, alder lcpeated calls, arosC
anilht tremendous applause, atul said :
It late, but 1 will answer to your |
call, :i!y rviends. [The audience here intorrupted
witli three cheers for lllictL
After t|uint was restored, Mr. Illicit resumed
:J There exists a grout mistake, fellow-c
tizens, in supposing that the people ol
the United States are, or ever have been,
one people. Oil the contrary, never did
the sun sun shine on two people so thoroug
ly disliuct as the people of the North
and of the South. They differ not o.ilv
in their institutions ami social organisation,
but their characteristics are uitogc.h ;r p
culurutiJ distinct. To il.u-trate tins fact,
now that the Union is diss.iiv 1; i lor tiia
Union is dissolved [Applui oil we uuv
put that down as certain?:!ie U .ion is
certainly dissolved jl [^Liro.it app'.au-o.J To ,
iilust ale this tact, i repeat, now that the
Uuiot^is dissolved, let u> recur to the past
, his.ory of the .- cetioiis. fiie lirat great .is
sue up hi which t:io diffe cue.- oi*t 1?*j North
and South was apparent, was upon the .
question ot the alien and sedition laws.
John Adams was thou I'vs; le.it, and the
North passed ala-v, th it.uiv one wh i should
speak an 1 write disr speet.'ully ol the Dies-1
ident of the L*iiited States should be punished,
and pay the penalty ol'co.M for hi->
offence. This law the South re.-d-ted.
Southern men said tliat it was an invasion i
ol t ic rights of freemen an I of the consti- ;
tution. which guarantee I. as one of our 1 berties,
the preservation of a tree press.? !
They said that free institutions eon! I not J
live, except where there was a free press.
This was the tirst great difference h :\\v n :
the Northern and Southern sections of the !
Union.
Then came the war of 1S12?a war for
Northern interests and Northern shipping
?a war for the honor of the North?a war
springing up oat of the belligerent statu of
Kurope. You all know that it was ealied
the Second War of Ludopeiideitce, an 1 that |
. it was led ou by your great Uulbouu and ,
Uuary (May?both Southern men. Y.'liat i
was the conduct of the North Why, he- <
caused it stopped their making money lor
a Tittle while, they denounced the liovernlnent,
and had the war eontintied six
months longer, they would have dissolve I
the Union. Here, then, was a war for
Northern interests und Northern honor, i
and yet, because they didn't make as much
money as before, they denounce 1 it an I
would have destroyed the Union. They
are a people, fellow-citizens, wholly devoted
to self-interest and the pursuit of gain. I
trust I am not tiring you. [Uric- ol ''g>
on ! go on !"] Well, then, what next
The war of 1312 passed off; an 1 then
came the tariif ipicstion. During the b- 1ligereut
state of Kurope, the hi) s of the
North did much ol the carrying trade *>!
Europe; hut, after the peace, they Were
thrown out of employment. \V h .t w... to
be done? They solved the ij nation by
deteriuiuiug to live on us?1?? . v eouie the
carriers fur the South. So they pushed
laws that none of the carrying trade of tiiicunntry
should be done by foreign ship-,
and passed the turiil of J Mb. Now, my
friends, though Mi. Calhoun has been
much blamed lor supporting the tariff of
18lb, (for he voted for it,) he lias been
blamed unjustly. The tariff of 1Mb was
not a protective tariff; it was a tariff to,
pay the expenses of the war. It never
was designed as a protective tariff l>esidos,
it was a progressively decreasing tariff,
to bj lessened in IMS, and ago n in
18J0, and so on. l>ut, when 1M8 came,
what did the North do ? They refused to
lessen the tariff. In 1S20, what di 1 th-y
do? They again refused to lessen it. They
did more?they increased it. They increased
it in 1821, and again in 1S2S ;
until little South Carolina, groan'ug under
the intolerable weight of oppression, nullified
the law of Congress. You all know
tho history of those times, and I: w the
partff difficulty was settle I in 1MT What
next? 'Titer arose in the North the id.-a
,ol sectional domination. To accompli-It
tthis, two things were noce.-s ry: To in
gjrense the number f free Stat s, to get the
.majority in both branches of Congress, and
then to unite the Y.ir?l> ?i...

'They hud tried to unite, the free Stat .against
the slave States upon lit taritl
But the j;reat Northwest, heiuj: an a^ricul
iturul people like ourselves, had interest*
ideutjcul with our owu, and they failed. ( t
Failing, then, to accomplish their tyrannical
purpose through unjust tar ill's, what
were they to do ? They deeided to estate , I
the slavory question. John tjuincy Adaitts i
commenced it. They lirst approache 1 the *
question through the insidious pretext of i
the ri^Ut of petition. They commence 1
to pour iholit.ou petitions into Congress, i

sec it, and thought that it was a mere t
question of the ri^ht of petition, and so i
lUey succeeded. Then caine the Mexican >
war And so settled was their purpose to v
increase the number of linn-slaveholdino *
States, and Anally subjugate the South, I t
that they annexed to the very liist war j ;

The cry ot no more slave States was
raised, anil California, with a constitution

tuittcd into the Union. I then advised
resistance. The Senate th mi stood til;ccn
from th? South and lift ecu from the North.
I It was the turning po:i|t of your destinies
in the I tiion, fellow-citizens; and I counselled
resistance at every hazard and to
I the lust extremity. Since then other free
States have been a ided, and the power of
j the South in the Union is paralysed. You
were tluu kicked out, and b ii.it d out, and
shot out, ol Kansas. They have thus,
fellow-citizens, succeeded in i? h parts of
their policy. They have got the lnijority
in both branches of C'ongre - 'i he South
I is in a hopeless and pow< rless minority.
They have united the Notth again t the
S,:oth, and inteiitl to rule you through the

of this time, the South has remonstrate.! ?
she lias argued, she lias appealed to the
constitution in vain. She Ins submitted,
with the most astonishing patience, to
wrong upon wrong, an I insult upon insult.
And now they ! avo consummated their
