* n i |o.riU'iilniiy to the 1 > ??.?. !.> pub*
lie tti m.embers of Congress :
With the control of but one House of i
Congress, and opposed by (lie other and '
by the Executive and judicial;, you tried, i
with sublime Mudaeily, to seize the reigns
of government and ubsotb the powei* of |
?n ,i....... - -- <
hi, ,n inii'iut-iiis, in onier to expel
slavery from Kansas nnd annihilate JSou I
tlierti power ;n that Territory. To achieve j
tliat purpose, vou endeavor to arrest the
wheels ot government atnJ to revolution
ize it, to nullify all laws and subvert all 1
authority in Kansas, and to subject its
people to all the lioriois of anarchy and
fratricidal war. (Jlent indeed would be
the humiliation and degradation of subimasion
to your demand, bv surrendering
to \ou the exclusive eecupancv tii atl the
Territories of the United Slates, lint
that would not purchase our peace or sat
isfy your demands. And if the >outh
decide to ) ied this demand, in ilie va;n
hope of at, inglorious peaee, let her check
her pride mil make up her mind with
becoming meekness nnd humility 10 li\e,
while she is lei live, in a state of subju
gallon, subordination and subserviency to
tho North, impetraling mercy of her
masters, instead of exacting justice of Iter
equals.
1 do not doubt thr.t you thick she will
yield all your demand I do tml doubt
vou believe you can extort from her fears
of your power all that yon cannot seduce
from her love of the Union. I believe
you expect to excite discord among her
own ions, and to array against the slaveladders
all wlio are nut slaveholders, hv
persuading thetn that they aie opposed
and wronged. But the example of Kanam,
where there c-nnot have been more
than two hundred slavehn ders out of ?ixthoiisand
pro slavery voters, should have
taught you thai the Ron* of the South
know and feel that they have a common
interest in preserving the institution of
slavery?that they must keep the negro
in his normal condition of slavery or de
stroy him, or surrender to him their country.
I do not fear that you chii delude
or beguile them to their own self destruction,
or the desolation of their country.?
1 know you count largely upon the defections
and desertions of Southern leaders,
and I confess, with shame and regret,that
you have hut too good reason lor \our
calculations in the mortifying examples
we have furnished of those who have he
trayed their trust and broken their all?gianee
to the South, not, perhaps, be-ause
they loved her less, but the Union m ire,
and themselves most. 1 know it is idle
to try to disenchant your minds of no
pressions which you are loud to reiam
and wish to lie true, hut which 1 think
dishonor the South, wrong the North and
may dissolve the Union. Yet, at the
liazard of your rilicnl", | mu-t tell \ou
that Alabama, in common with all iiei
Souehern sisters hot two, has, by liie nniver-al
voi.eof tier people, us expressed
by party conventions, by popular assein
blies, and by her late and former legislatures,
resolved? 'that she will and ought
to resist, even (as a last resori) to a dmtiupt-on
of every lie, which bonis iter :o
ti>- Union, any action of Congress upon
ihe -oil.j-cl of slavery in the lJiMriel of
Uomnibia, or in places subject to the juri??Iictioti
of Congress, incompatible with
the sa ely, the domestic tranquility, the
rights and honor of tin; slaveholding
Slates ; or any refusal to admit as a Sta'e
any Territory hereafter applying, because
of the existence of slavery therein ; or
aiij' act prohibiting the introduction of
slavery into the Territories * * * * * ;
or any act repealing or materially modifying
the law now in force for the recovery
of fugitive slaves/'
If this he mere bravado, die shares the
folly ami the shame in common with
twelve of her Southern sisters. While I
have indulged, shall indulge, in no
menace, promise or prophecy of her course
yet I can, am] will sav, (or in\self, that
in the day of her self degradation, by ilis
.regarding her pledges and submitting to
your government, [ will not sit here to
endure the continue!v and reproicli which
you jnstlv inav, and certainly will, heap
up# i the heads of ner Senators.
Mr. President, I have not been addicted
to singing pte ins or uttering eulogies
upon the'Union, or accustomed to le/urding
it as ,4lhe paramount political good/'
or "the primary object of patriotic desire."
I have ever felt that I owed my lirst and
highest allegiance to my State, ayd that
her sovereignty, her independence, and
her honor, even without the Union, should
be dearer to her sons, than the Union and
her subordination, dependence, and dis
honor within it. Yet, sir, the Union of
ttie constitution, which our fathers made.
I love and reverence and would preserve;
but this Union without the constitution,
or with it as constreued by Northern
Republicans, I abhor and scorn, and would
dissolve, if my power were equal to my
will. To this Union, the South i? commended
at a choice of evils, and coininan- j
ded with meiiam of compulsion. Whether
she will chnoae the Union n* a l?*Mer
evil or suVmit to it hy compulsion ami
Abandon her self government and eurreiider
her deeiinie* lo your control, or you
will awe'y tent, if you get the power, and
tiiuo will Kiirely prove. If (the yield to

Mr- Clay's Speech. *''
We are indebted to the Hon. C. C. Clay. lo 11,1
of Alabama, for a copy if his late speech
! delivered in the U. S. Senate. Mr. Clay '"'i"1
has never been considered nn altruist or lireenter
;?on the contrary, his political course
! has been Hiiforinly marked by good sense, ^
I discreetness and moderation, and when .one, 'ri'sl'
] therefore, with these characteristics, sounds ' x
i the notes of alurtn, the South would do '
i well to lake heed. With his views,which are P'anl
1 logically deduced and well sustained by
facts, it would be difficult to believe other- I''"0*
w ise than thai the dissolution of the Union P|
| is inevitable, depending solely upon time,
| unless the South yields to the aggressive de- an ?
, mands ??f the North and consents to occupy on
| the position of inferiority, which her ene- v'%lC
| mics are striving to force upon her. The v '
' concluding portions of this speech, addressi
ed particularly to the IJI.ick Republican
i members of Congress, we publish else- so
| where, to which we refer our readers, and ' 1
I commend as possessing nn unusual degree
