At Montigomery, Ala., lie challengel any Southern ma to reply to him. The gage of hattle was accept cl by Genmeral Jamce IL. Claytotn, who, tough talkeni by siurprise, delivered a ten Vml('elOvin speech'i. 10 um exclision of othir matter, we reproduce tihe stbstance0 of iis remrks, for which we aro indebted to the Montgomerv Mka il : Friendsi and i'ellow Citizens 1 returned fiom the country a fCw miittes Since, and was informed that som1e colored men had called at. my ofice, to invite me to attend this meet ing. I appreciate this act of kitndness, confidc'e and friendship on their part. My colored friends, we aro Soithern niW. bornl upion the samle sol, live in thoIusame counitry. and will sleep in the same grave-yaril when life's toils are over ; and our destiny is the same. If you proSper, the whiite race of the South will prosper; and if the white race prospers, you must pt'osper; and what over misfortmo is visited upon the South must be borne alike by both races. It is alike your duty and interest to ciuliti v'ate friendly relations witht your neig~h bors and formetr owners, who are to-day, and ever hove been, your best ft ionds. For one, 1 can proudly say that no one in this assembly can assert that [ over opressed him whetn ho was asav. On one occasion I fought for y'on in theso streets. On another, when a white mtan had been wvaylayed and imurdered, and his neighbors had as sembledl, mnd taken the law int their htands with the avowved purpose of exe.. cuttog the twvo supposed leaders, w~ho wvere colored tmen, I interpiosed, with otheors, and succeeded in having thtem placed in jail atnd a fair trial given them. One was cotnvicted rand hung; the other acquit ted, andc still liver. '.Uhe Senator from Massachutsetts, who has just. addressed you, and wvho lives soveral thousand miles distant., has ex plained to you the object of his political iilgrimange Soni~h. He lias challenged n(ye o proewnt, to meet him in disens sion to-night., and has offered to divido time with ainy one who would accept. I was horn and raised in the South, and hope to be burtied in her soil. I have met the bxave mn of theo North on many fields ; they ontunimbered and overcame us; and I certaitily have no fear of their politicians. But for my family, life wvould have but few chaums for me. Neither the fear of' the gal. lows, the gibbet, or' the bayonet, will over cause mec to desert my people, forsake this brightt Sotuthiern land which gave me birth, or deter me from the expressionl of my honest sentiment tunder any oircumetances. Some youing South ern Radicals, who have recently ad dressed youl, say~ that the Sheorm.un bill, wvhich they are Qdvocating, would dis. franchise them, and, hence their efforts wvere purely nnsellsh, whilst at the time their appientions to be relieved from the disabilities of that measure are nond Jng at Washtington, and they are doubt less expecting to call oni you for your votes at the nezuxt elections for this State. I will here state my own positioni braiefly on this poinit. L belie yo that Bill is unconstitutional -I believe it is oppressive to a certain class of Our best m1en11. As soon as that Bill passed Conagres; a high Federal oflicial with the kinadest feclings for ie personally, said to ie: "You were not an original secessionist. Co)gres will remove your disabilities under Ltle Sherman Bill. You must send onl an applicationi, tad 1. will ap prove it, anuad hlpy11 ou to get ai, through." I replied that the lepublican party had no right tinder the Constittition to dim, franchise me, and I would never ask for reliet at their hands, and that is nmy po sition to night. The honoralo Senator from Ma3, chiasets las sail some thmltgs which ev ince good fceling on his part, and whicl I approve. I Ih bias also said many thiungs from which I mutist di-ss-enat, and tm1ade manv assertions which tho politi (11 history, and( particularly that of oatr recent unfortunute wvar, proves to be aunatruec. ]He coummences with the h is I.ory of slavery in the South ince he came i upon the slage of action, and en lavors to fix the responiibility of the Oxisteice of that. iistit'tu-tonl nIpon t le Souithurna people, with all of its horors as depietd by his vivid iinationai iam I will carry the gentleman back to tiae starting pointi of tle iiiat iion oil ti is continent, and before I take 111v seat. I will prove to you that the Nortl is responsible for the existence of slavery with wlatever evils attached to it ; aid I am fniak to say thait there weore fen utres in slavery which were wrong. Many years ago, nmy fricuds, before tle United States had an ea-xistenace as a nation, your forefathiers inhabited the homes of your race-A frica. The North. ern people, who were then as now a commercial people, owning manty ships, went to the coast of Africa (and bought som and stole or kidiapped yoir graifathers amd mothers, placed thom i tho holds of their vessels inl great munbers, and in chains took s:me few to their Northern hom es, and sent mo.st of I hem to be sold to the Sout hern peo. ple for slaves. In this work thea-y hadl valuabhle co-laborers in the 10aglish and Spanish. By. this traflic inl Iman Ilesl they imlale large sums of Ionev. The Soutlaern people, as a general rule. were opposedl Lo the slave trale. and when the Colonies threw off tha yoke of Great Iritain, te- Southera Colonies anongst t hem, aId one of tle principal reasonis whiclI thcy paublished to the world in justification of their cause, was 1lastt, e mother country had imosed iaverv and the slave trade upon them atiom s their wishie. When our indepentidlene -*as le kinowledge'-d and we formited a Union of the Cloanies, the South was still oppesed to lie slave trade, :an1d it would have been declared piracy, and halfof yotur race inl tihe United StItes, would not have been here now, but in Africa; -ba. t-le Northern 11men engaged inl the trade found it to be so profitable, and so enirely free from anv conscieneioas scriples were they, itat they insisted that their piouis ope-ations should con tne twenty years longer. and the South yicled. These slave traders in vested their money in lands, houses and othier propemty North, which madel many of their grand ehildren or great grand children rich, and some of whom are now leading Republicants. The slave holders of the Northern States did the same thing itn most. inlstan. ces by sending their slaves to Virginia ad other Southern States and selling them when their slave labor becameI less profitable mn a cold climate than white labor, and have since amused them selves by ab)using t-ho Soutlherna people as slave drivers--and thec Senator, 1-la descendanat of these men, is here to niighit reminiding you of the wrong you have received at 1-la hands of your for iner masters, and advising you to avoid political allhances wvith' your fiinds sand nieighibor's, and to seek an allisanco with people in distant States, the Republicas of thle Northa. I repeat., that 1-le con. scientious scruples of t-ho Noth was not seen cr-oppintg out until they had yeau- race in your pockets, where they have taken gosod care to keep you ever Trhecre are manay good people at the North whlo are your frioends, and who have niever engaged iti the slave trade, owvned slaves or approved of slavery. The same cani be said of the South, atid if let alene by 1-la North 1-lit chass wvould have been much larger- in t-ho Souath. More slaves have beena freed by thle act of their owners im the South~ thant at the North. George WVashaing ton owined about one thousand, which lie freed at his death. Mr Randolph did thte sanie. Gener-al Oglothorpe op posed slavetry in Georgia. There is a man on the stage who knows that I had an angtry controversy manty years ago in this city for endorsing Ihenry Clay's emiancipation scemne for Kent. ttueky. Hie was my p)olitical leader-, I never kntew him to do wrong, but I fear we will nover look uapont his like again. TIht genitleman fa-om Massachusetts says you oughat to identify yourself with 1-la Radical party of the North, because theyo have waded tharongh a bloody war of foury years to set you free, to give you thea right to sir, aipont juaries, to ride ont railraads, testify as witnesses in couarts, anud much else. I (deny every assertion he has nmade on these p)oints, and challenge him to the proof.
