I no more approve of the one than I justify the other. If Heaven hears iny prayers, both will be spared me. j My life, though short, aoU more for tunttte (ban happy, will be Far too long, should 1 survive to bear part in acnil war, or to witness a dissolu- j tion of the Union. Yet the last I ain pi rsuaded would be the least evil. It may be rflVcted without the guilt ??f home-shed blood; which is to me, of itself, a sulli lent ground of prefer ence. (t is priibAhle hat if Georgia or South Carolina, or both should ' think propel* 10 withdraw, no at tempt would he made to prevent i them. They may be allowed to de- ] part into obscure independence, if i they can maintain i?; to settle quietly as a petty pruieipaiity ; or sink into appanage of Kuropeau power. I can not believe that the secession of tlio whole south would be seen witheijual indifference. Of this our antagonist j suppose there is n?? danger: and they i hug themselves with the belief, that 1 unless all made common cause, the ; new government will hardly be for midable enough for freedom. With out the Chesapeake it would scare ly have a port into which a irigate j could enter; and New Orleans would , he w anted ns an outlet for Mississip pi, and the means of a favorable al liatice witli toe west. Hot I will not | conjecture the t ffic's of such a ! change. May God avert it! Still less will I imagine that ijuestious so serious and allln ting can be agitated tr.erely for intimidation, or to gene or thwart the ambition of a? y party. It is doubtless important that our brethren; our unjust and selfish brethren, if you ? hoo?e; hut still our brethren; should know the intensity ot our feelings and our *uir rings; | our deep, settled, and unanimous hos tility to the protei tive system. It may bo worth reflecting, neverthe less, how far. at this time, unfounded suspicions may he thrown upon our mottves, by the pendency of a Presi dential election ? the pledges contem poraneously given to certain candi dates, and the eager discussion <>t even contingent pretensions, which four years yet, are wanting to ma ture. iii tins allusion however, as in all > I have M<tul or omit:rd. n is my ?'ar* J nest desirp to estrange no ai.y. to : provoke no opponent.

Sliapp sayings, at all times, leave behind i them bittrr recollections; but thry j are especially unseasonable at a cri sis like the present. j Indulge me with a remark or two on the tone of fliis reply. I' may lie thought too mild fop the temper of the times. Anger will not bear, that his antagonist should be only gently cen ; sured, and exhortat-rons to moderate ! ' counsels, grate harshly on the caps j of injured men. Vet, after all when ; delusions, not heads, must he broken, ( the best words for service, sound the least Ilk1' blows. I admit, it is not enough, that tie whom >ou honor with your confidence, should faithlully rep- j respnt your rights, your wishes, your j interests. There should be chords | in his bosom, responsive to your eve- j ry passion. But their echoes need not reach you, to swell the notes of J discord. lie who would appease, if he cannot reconcile, contending par ties, must be careful not to augment their mutual prejudices. ? lie should ! rather strive to abate their respective i . claims and animosities. Too many ( will be found in every country, to 1 Hatter and inflame the indignations I of the sovereign ? whether people or despot: Comparatively few to argue i with the masters of votes or legions, j ! As the apostles of political toleration '? are scarce, if one should chance to ' gain the public car, lie ought te iin j prove the occasion, to beat down, in whatever parly may he his lieht'ers, 1 that sell sufficient obstinacy, which will allow nothing to be tit, or right, er bearable but what we ourselves approve. For the reason then, t >? at il I weie the representative of a man ufacturing state, addressing at this crisis, implicit believers in the Ikiic* Jicent magic ol the restrictive policy. I should attempt to mit gate their lire nnd confidence ? lor the same reason, appealing to those who ore convin ced of its malignant influence, it is my duty to soothe if possible their ! just Indignation.
