Heaven I
Abolitionists, and-their " twin brothers or
the same womb"-the Free-Soilers-ard
wholly exempt from the original sin of sla.
very. They have long since 4ashed their
hands of this "pullution," and now, with one
hand on their Bible and the other'upon the
price, they "make broad their phylacteries,"
and " thank God they are not ab other men
are." The responsibility ofropcning the
Territories to slavery is with the makers of
of the Constitution-the responsibility of
introducing it upon~ the people who have
their election. The responsibility of preser
ving the Territories in a condition in which
the equal rights of all the States may be repre
sented, and in which the unforstalled judgment
of the people inay be exercised upon all matters
affectinz themselves in their internal relations, is
the responsibility of an oath as binding upon Free
Soilers as upon other men. If.the decision of the
-new States is fur slavery, their "withers are un
wrung."
This universal diffierence of sentiment cn the
opposite sides orgeographical lines must find its
solution out of the department of morals. Good
morals are the same elsewhere, and undefiled re
ligion is as pure in the planter on the bank., of
the Mississippi as with the Puritan descendant
of New England.
I have known of too many being converted by
having bought a negro, and too many converted
by having sold nil of theirs, to believe in this be.
ing a question of morality.
It is, sir, a question of political power between
the manufacturing and agricultural States: and
this cry about liberty, humanity, and brotherhood,
is but the cant of the demagogue, who rides into
place by deluding his friends, and endeavors to
increase the streongth of his section by present.
inc false issues to us.
SVhen, sir, a northern man meets me wifth man
ly frankness, and tells me that slave and free la
bor cannot co-exist, or that our three-fifths repre
sentation is unequal or unjust, I can reason with
him with patience, and, if proper, agree to disa
gree. I would say to him. sir, it is as impossi
ble for you to judge correctly of the instiltlion
of slavery as-for a blind man to jndge of colors
Your prejudices were formed before your judg
ment had mntured. They have been fostered
through life by association, misrepresentation,
and renoteness. You know nothing of the tie
gro character, or of his intimate and insepairable
eonnection with the moral, social, and political
condition of the South. If you wish either of us
well let us alone. If you would not erowd a ship
alrendv full, give us our constitutional rights in
the Territories. The laws of God will regulate
this matter between us. lie has given us pro
ducts which the multiplied wants of a rapidly-in
creasing population imperatively demand, and
has restricted their production to se-tions in
wl'ich you will not, and generally could not, live.
The-inoompatability of free and slave labor is
only a northern notion. It is not so at the South.
You object to having three-tifths- of our nettroes
repre!!ented, because of the politiicl power it
gives-um. If they were free the whole would be
represented, rs at the North and the political
power of the slave State'would be increased to
the extent of the remaining two-fifths.
But, sir, when the positions assumed, nnd the
drift of the argumetnt deduced, is, by necess~ry in
plication, to charge my people with the blackest
offenses in the catalogue of crime, I meet it with
scorn and detestation..
.The history of the African contains proof upon
every page of his.ut ter incapacity for self govern
ment. His civilizatio~n depends upon his contact
with ind his control by the white m:mn. Tihough
elegated and educnted by this association, taught
by experience the blessings of law, and provided
with all the mnehinery of go-ernent ready to
his hand, when hte is left to Ihis own government,
he desctnds to the level of thne brnte. Let Free.
Soilers read the history of the blneks.Qn the Is
land of Jamarica since their ematncipation, anid if
one of drop of geininte phrilanthrophiy ruins isato
their veins,'the~y will guard a population, of
which they are par excellence the cbampions,
irrm the evils of such a liberty.
rho institution of slavery, which it is so fash
ionable now to detcry, has beent the greatest of
blessings to this entire country. At the North,
it has served as a vent for fanticism, commun
ism, and all those secretions ofa morbid senti
mentality, wvhich, withoiut this saifety-valve,
would long since have resulte-d in a socialI explio
dion ;nand which will be as crnel to the totre :ind
the good, when it doe-s come,'nis it in certnin in
the future. From Maiine tio Texas the slaves
have been the pioneers of civilization. The for
est has bowed be-fore their march, the eanrth yie-ld
1t~itsxieh harvests to their labor, and give-n us a
co ierce which excites the adntirationi and jeal
ousy of the world. The piower of comm nerce is
greater than that of armiesaund navies. Englantd
saw wherein our strength lay, anid endeavored to
shear us of our power, by tier experiment in the
WVest Indies, whIh involved tire loss of million4
oif dollars to herself, arid the miseraible de-gradan
tion of the very race which, with hyipoc-ritienl
philanthropy, she professed a desire to elevate
arid benetit.
Every section of this Confederacy is no(w in
the enjoyment of the rich rewards of the labor
of the slave. Ie gives emploryment to the ship
ping interest of the East, wealth to the manrufac
turer of the North, and a market for the hemip
and live-stock of the West.
The market of thre slave State is the best and
most varied up'on earrth. In whatever section
either of the grenrt Southern staples are grown,
that particulatr -staple is grown to the exc-lesion
of the ethers. - If raised in Virginia. cot ton and
rice are to be bought:; if in thre Carolinas arid
Georgin, tobacco arid sugar; if in the extreme
South and Southwest, rice and tobacco. We,
of the South, are compelled to secnre by ex
change onie or the other oifeveni these few staples;
while, by an injudicious policy, the slave States
are dependent foar every other article ini thre wide
field of commerce upon other sections than our
own. Not only do our slaves secure to the free
States the best home market upon earth, but,
sir, they are at this moment paying, by the fruits
of their labor, fulil two-thirds of the revenue of
this Governnenat..
-It appears, fromethe report of the Steretary of
the Treasury, ending J.eu 30, 1852, (wtieh is
the last which has been published.) that the to
tal revenue of the country was $49,728,386.
Of this amount was received from the sale of'
public lands - - - $2,389,060
From duties upon inmports . 47.339326'
$49,728,36
It is a generally admitted principle oif corn
mercial law, that the amournt of importsis rege
latted by the amount of exports,.and since our re
venue is raised almost wholly from duties upon
imports, it followse, iflit cart be horvn -that 19
thirds of the domestic exports of this countay ire
thie prodnet of slave labor, that the preposition
is sustained: that t wo-thirds of the entire revenue
from imports is paid by the labor of slaves.
rTe total value of dasr deetie exports, in
1852, was $192,368,984.. -e.- . .

How much of Southern produce is manufnc
tured at the Northend'exported as Northern pro
ducts; such asIthe cottonl, which they export in'
their wool, and in fur, in hr.ts, and cordage, and
flax, and thread, and saddlery, and wearing ap.
parel, and umbrellas, and sun shades. ani in
books and maips, &c., &c., such as spirits fromt
molasses-it is as impossible for me is for the
purchaser to ascertain. But enougi has been
shown to prove the indebtedness of every quar
ter of the Union to the humble slaves.
But again: The total value of the domestic
and foreign exports of the Uituiel States, inl the I
year 1.852, was $209,658,386, and tle total value
of foreign imports $212.945,442, ma-ing an ag
gregate of.$422,003,808. In the carriage of this i
amount of goods to and from foreign conittries
were emploved 8,887 American vessels, with a
capacity of 3.230.590 tons, and employing 115,.
253 men, and 1,781 boys. How many of these
vessels or of their crews belonging to the South
it is unnecessary to ask.
I have not been able to procure full reports for
1853; but the duties r.eruing on imported mner
cbandise show an increase o'er those of 1852
of 813,625.598, and, as a consequence, a iropor.
tional in'erease of the value of slave labor to the
people of the North.
Sir, I venture to declare the opinion that slave
rv has been the strouge a. bond of unit n bet ween
these States. Every section of the Confed-ra
cy has reaped its blessings, and the people of.
tie North have been too long accustomed to
levy black mail upon it now to deny theniselves
so I-ruit ful a source of thrift and of profit. The
South has been the goose of the golden egg to
the North. which Free-Soilers, in their mad cu.
pidity and fartical tamperings, are threatening
to destroy.
If by some convulsion of nature the slave
States could be sunken beneath the level of the
water-, it would involve millions of the inhabi.
tants of the North in ba'nkruptcy, and ruin, and
unutterable miseries.
Your lordly mierclant and fattened mnnufac
turer, your omnihus men and porters, might all,
with truth. exclaim
"Othello's occupation's gone !"
Your cities, now your pride and stre-ngtl,
would dwindle into towns; your crowded har
bors grow empty and wild ; aend thousands who
now live in contentment and confort would beg
for bread.
Reverse thA picture, and suippose the free
States blotted from creation. Wily, sir, tIhe fact
would be fell only by our railroad conductors,
captains of ste:;mboats, and a few politic:nms wi:h
n: tional aspirations. Our harbors wou'd be fill
ed with foreign shipping; our marine towns
grow into cities. rivaling in their magnificence
and prosperity the present condition of these of
the North. Every kind of manufnctory would
spring up over our streams ; our revenne would
be collected and expended among the people who
now bear an uneqnal burden in supporting this
Goverument, and who are unequally protected
by it.
Alr. Chair man, the cry that the Union is in dan.
ger has been so olen raised, that men have een:
sed to regard it. But, sir, disunion mav come
while we are sleeping in security. Before Gid,
I believe thatif thfs bill-which simply estab
lishes the principle that the people, in their con
dition of sovereigji States, should be permiitted
to decide for themnselves up'on all matters ffee
ting their internal government-ails to pass this
House. we will be it greater danger of disution,
tan at anv time -ince tie furmation of this Gov
ertim nt.
I matke no threat of disunion. Thne failure of
the passage of this bill may riot so resutlt. But,
sir, tour foung tnen are b'ecoming familiar with
the sound of a word whichn wats breat hed hy their
sires only in secrecy, or forced from their lips by
thre agony of aceumulated wrong. The South
is now utnited, and shne is sustained by tihe intel
ligent and gallant spirits of thre \\ eat. Tihe
Southern backsliders oef 1850 have vanished be.
fore thre breath of popular indignation like -elouds
reforre a Biseny gale," and their seats have been
illed by true men.
I telliyou, sir, it is a dangerous season to preach
cofistittutionral heresies, and more dangerours to
enact, them. I- use the word darnger-:becanusel
feel it, and I am not unwillintg to entertain: the
emotion whertever thre stability of tis Govern
ment is threatened. I know, sir, thrat there are
thousanids at the South who, goaded by repeat
ed acts of unequal legislat ion, thirst for disurnin
as thre bar t panrts fotr tire water brook. But, sir,
I arm r.ot of them yet ; anrd it is my fervent de
sire that no circumrstanrce mayr occur whicht will
drive me into their rarnks. WVe ha~ve too great a
cooutry for mue to contremplate its dismtemiber
mernt wvithout solicitude anrd pain. We ha~ve a
country great itn its htistory arrd its institutions:
great in its science and arts; great itn its states
maen and wvarriors; great itt its wealthr atrd thre
variety of its resouirces. We will continue to
have a grert- count ry, a conrtry continuinng anrd
ncresng tn greatness, if we arc but true to tire
principles oef the Constitution. It is distinct inrr
letter and equitable in spirit. It is sanretiled by
the blood arnd the wisdom of patrieots, and inas
stood thte surest of all tests-the test of time. I
call upon thre good atnd thre true inert of every
sectionr to arrary thnemselves before it, rind tell tire
assailanrts it is a sacred thring, anrd not to be pol
uted by threir fana~tical touch. The Suth asks
for niothing miore.
If tire nratural laws of elitmate and orf soil ex-1
elude us from a territory o.f wIch we are thtet
joint owners we should trot aind we will not coni
plain. But, sir, wheni a coalition of tenrants itn I
common attempt a monopoly, and, by laws at1
once unconrstitutionarl antd utnjust, endeavor to
restrict us, and by a surveyor's line, to a parrt of
these United State-, while they are permitted to
walk the whole dorin, we cannot and we wiil
iot submit to so odious a distintction.t
