The object of the Conven- c tion, I undei stand to be, to declare whetlier, in 6 the opinion of the Convention, South Carolina <i ought to secede from the Union- alone and n without the concurr- nt nation of any of the o other Southern States. -My opinion on the pro- J pricty of the separate action ol one Southern * State, and particularly of South Carolina, has r been long known. There is no man in the I e country who feels more sensibly than i do the t danger, the dishonor, the infmny of the condi- t tion of the South. No man is more entirely I convinced .f the justice, tho Constitutional f right, and the political expediency of the with- i drawal of tire Southern States from the Union by which they are enthralled, and which cannot f fail, while it subsists to bring on them fur titer 1 and future danger, oppression and infamy. I 1 am satisfied that history furnishes no example ( of such disputable submission as tlu. which t they now exhibit. The philosophy of liberty t is jealousy. The proper action or patriotism * is the earliest po-sible resistance to the slight- d eat encroachment ou the public rights. The lovers of liberty snutf the tainted breeze of tyranny in the distant gale, and do not wait for the overwhelming power of the storm. But | we tamely endure the full blast ot the injuries ( mid insult* so profusely poured upon.us. we hug our chains with somethiug approaching to ii fondness, and submit to be governed by oar ? our bitter enemies?and yet it is only uecessa- ? ry to will it, to rend those clwtiiu and to be t "redeemed, regenerated, and disenthralled !*? 1 As a citizen of thn South, i feel humiliated iu- t ( to the very ddst. Yet,_ I aju not of opinion, ? , that South-Carolina should secede alone. Nor ( i do I think thus on aecouut of the dangers it s i may provoke, or the saci dices it may require. < rSo danger# and no sacrilices can be too great { in such a cause. Hut one State of the South < ' cannot stand alone iu the midst of her sister States. These States form one family in inter- i | est, in blood, iu feeling, and iu endearing, so i cial and historical relations and recollections, i and such ties ought not to be broken but by < dire necessity. Siouth Carolina, i know, has t been grossly slandered and vilified for what no t dispassionate man can say is rash or unwise. 1 She has done 110 more than proclaim the South t em wrongs, and who can deny them, and to ( express a desire to unite with her sister States * in resisting them. S;i? will be wrong, how- i ever, in my poor opinion, if she separates alone 1 from them in her measures of resistance. But t it may be said they have not proposed to do t ( what tiie honor and interest of all require to f . be done to lede-in the character and to sustain < , the rights oi' the Muuth. It is must true and | deeply to be lamented, but we are but one ? member ol this large family, ami have 110 right t to dictate authoritatively, to the other members of the family. We must wait upon them and r iutreat them to move. We sheoid use no Ian c guage of irritation. We must look with for- i boa nine c on their hardi tea*? f "Be to their faults a liuie blind, v Be to their virtues very kind. n And put a padlock on their mind " as to the past. The people of our Southern sisters tire a ? brave peo >le, whose fallters fought for liberty, x who themselves were boru and nurtured in the t enjoymunt of it, and who, therefore, know the x value of it. It cannot be believed that such a u people will long consent to be governed other. a wise titan by a Government in which they shall j enjoy equal rights, equal power and equal lion01 s. ') hey have been deceived and betrayed. They must and will hearken to other counsellors than those to whom they huve hitherto g listened. The Mouth must and will rouse from t it* cliinifipm :imi m.iinlv relv unon the Deitioc- c srw ? J -?J -g _ racy of the country, 'l'ho Democratic party ^ once already, under tiie guidance of Jelfarsou tj in 17U6,saved the ?>outh froui Uie ambition and n toils of Federalism. We now contend against the same people, but with tneso differences.? 'J'he leading Federalists were then high, lion- 1; orahle, able men, who were ambitious to gov- k era you but w^yse ambition was noble and s therefore scarce a crime, t.iuugh dangerous to ^ t.ie true piiuciples of our Union. Tuese men h have gone down to the grave or have been pro- v scribed and discarded by their unworthy asso- a ciutes, men with more loan tneir amtiitiou but is none of their vii tues or talents. The object of ^ the old Federalist was a strong hut noucst p Government. That of their suci essors is an a anarchical tyranny, regardless of the provisions a of the constitutions for the security of South- It eru rights and animated by the principles of it abolition and the frenzy of fanaticism. t! Let the Democratic party, then, which ral- a lied under the guidance and foresight of Jefferson, and saved the South, again put forth its strength. It embraces the great power of the Southern States.
