JB. 'Danforth, bf Ieklslarjd,
having uddressed Jefferson Davis
to the effect that "aomething should
be dono at once by Southern lead
ra cf public opinion to . counteract
the effort of Repriblians who are
endeavoring to raake a solid North
a'eceeeion ; aat'tne pedp aro" stilt
for secessipn ; that there is no free
dom of speech or of the press in the
South, and that the South has been
made solid by means of the shot
gun," the reply comes, and is pub
lished in full as follows:
Beattvoib, Habeisok Cottxty, Miss ,
November 23, lSTp. y
J. B. Ban forth, Esq. : x
, My Dear Sir : I was gratified
by the receipt of ybnr letter aa a
token of your refeiembrance of me
when iu former and and in happier
dajs we were officially connected
with each other.
1 wp.s also gratified
by tht
ra
the ceipt ot a copy ot ycur paper,
llock Islander.
It so happened that at the time a
local candidate had called to visit
me, and the conversation turned
upon the time honored doctrine cf
State rights. Like many others in
our section, he supposed this to be
a creed which peculiarly belonged
to tie South. .1, who have known,
und am happy to remember, men of
every Ftctioa true to tho theory of
a Union voluntarily formed by'sov
ereign States, endeavored to ex
plain that it was not a Southern
idea, but a historical fact; that it
belonged to no section, but sprang
from the brains of men who declar
ed the independence of the colonies,
and formed the compact of a more
perfect unjen of the States. To
prove my position I read to hiin
your article headed ''Wii;it is Meant
by State Rights ?" and was pleas
ed to see the effect which it produ
ced when he knew it came from the
Statu cf Illinois, and
the Mississippi river.
high
on
If there is tnything which, moro
clearly than another, the frames of
the corjsticution did not intend to
do, it. was to submit the people of
tlie States to the unbridled will ot
a majority of the people of ail the
States. Sectional majorities have
changed ; they may, ali probably,
will charjge again ; and the bul
warks which alone can protect mi
norities from the uprising tenden
cy of a general government, is a
strict construction of delegated
powers and a fair observence of the
reserved rights cf tho States and of
the people. , '
When the Staie3 delegated ccri
tain functions to a general govern"
meur, the.f urpose was declared to
be to secure the blessing3 of liber
ty to themselves and their posteri
ty. The confederation, which had
been declared perpetual, was termi
nated to form a more perfect union
of those States which should agree
to enter into it. Being without any
precedent ia history, but t&ught by
the examples bf all ancient repub
lics of the rocks andebcals on which
they had been wrecked, a compact
of union was formed which must
ever stand a model of wisdom on
the part of those who framed it.
'i'ho reservation of rights, as you
have forcibly presented it, only
marks the limit between the pow
ers of the general government ad
those which the States and the peo
ple thereof would continue to exer
cise. This was to secure liberty to
their posterity, not to elcvace a new
master to the throne from which
George III had been doposed.
In tho many years that have
patsed since tho formation of that
constitution, with the many Chief
Magistrates the South has given to
tho Union, it seems strange that,
in this day, belief in the doctrine
on which the Union was founded,
and which was uniformly avowed
by the men who illustrated its early
history, should now be regarded aa
hostility to its existence, and that
the creed of State right3 should te
held as the synonym of a desire to
destroy the Union of the Constitu
tion. Truth is said to be eternal.
It is well thlTt it' should be, for er
ror so far outstridea its stately
steps that otherwise we might fear
whether truth would finally over
take it. .
Those who have "carefully noted
the usurpation and oppression to
which the South was subjected after
she had laid down her arms and
faithfully agreed to abide by the
laws of the United States, would
have no need to go further in order
to find a reason why the South was
solidified in the defense of her
rights of person and property.
Would the Nortbj' under like cir
cumstances, have been so ? Would
they have shown such patience un
der wrong ?
It is surely littlQjlesHlit"sncl1

equivalent to a declaration on iher
part of a desire "toiecede from! the
Union. Any logical zaiffi would,
draw from these facts i ..tne reverse

the general goveiiirnent. But ; the
men who desire' a fraternal union
and a geneaal prosperity nrust see
that it is not the road by which
either can be reached.
In I860 the secessionists, per se,
io U8e,th,paxft8 of. that day, were
few aid tfaiw'e.trbpairft
fewer now and further between.1
Jt is, therefore, utterly untrue
that State rights, as esserted here,
mean secession. And eqnaily un
true is it that there is no freedom
of opinion and speech, or the press,
among us. Personal difficulties and
family; feuds have teen .misrepre
sented as political combinations to
suppress the Ireedom
fof elections,
while in point of "fact
our elections
e "and order-
have been as neaceab
ly as; elsewhere." jlodeed, there
has been a studied effort not to per
mit any riotous- proceedings which
could be ,used by' emissaries. asfthe
means 6f injuring our reputation'or
invalidating our elections.

war, we desire emigration to cum
vate our waste lands and to restore

have a soil and climate inviting to

both to a home among us. , ' :
I have no present or prospsctive
connection with the poiltic .of the
day. My observation an'tj refleCs
tions are those of a man who has
served the country long, and would
bo glad, beforo he goes hence, to
see peace and prosperity through"
out her borders.
For myself, my dear 'sir, accept
assurance of the good wishes and
kind rememberances of your friend,
Jefeerson Davis.
Wedding Srealifasts.
From the London World.
The air is musical with the sound
of joy beils. The young King of
Spain has just led a second bride
to the altar, and tho revelry which
reigns in Madrid awakens echoes in
England. We have Christmas
weather, but the frosty atmosphere
rings with tho melody of June
madrigals and the voice of the tur
tle dove may metaphoricalljr be
said to bo heard in the land." At
the close of last week two marria
ges, ii which not a iittle interest
was fet by a certain section of So
ciety, w;
celebrated in London.
On Saturday a well known barris

day previous the same uignity.was
attained by the most successful ar
tist of the; day. . Thi3 wa3 a cere

nuptial ceremony were in progress.
When that was over the rite of a
wedding breakfast was wisely pre
termitted, and, by way Of compen
sation, the mother ot the bride
"threw cpen the rooms of the fam
ily mansion" and entertained her
friends at a ball of great magnifi-
cen'se. xuere seems to Da, a pros
pect oi tnis exceptional, but most
rational usage, becoming a social
precedent. -A member of the House
of Commons is about to do whj4e he
can toward abolishing the compul
sory solemnization of marriages in
the early morning ; and if Mr. Blen
neraassett's bill passes into law a
blow will have been dealt at the in
stitution of a wedding breakfast,
which has long since become a nui
sance to all concerned. Our social
history abounds in instances of the
survival of the unfittest as well as
of the ; fittest. Marriages before
noon were adopted by our forefath
ers for the simple reason that thero
existed a strong presumption that,
after -noco, bride and bridegroom
might both be unable jsMHk
straight to the nuptial altar. In
those primitive times the more hi
larious spirits were in the habit -of
drinking themselves as nearly as
possfible blind drunk before 1
o'clock on any holiday, by way of
doing it suitable reverence. The

nerhaseett's bill will be the first ats.

social-religious life against : which
there is no sensible argument to bo

"It was first heard of after Win

ed the movement."
"Waa there any political influ

"I am certain that such was the
case, and tho republicans fathered
the movement.' j
"Why do you think o?"
"First, because the exodus move
ment changed suddenly from -Kansas
to Indiana, which 3 a pivotal
State in the election of 1880 ; then
while the meetings and speeches
were public there was ; a great deal

"What was the relation of the

"Tho. negroe of North Carolina
have been the best satisfied of any
of the Southern States ; there was
scarcely the shadow of a distur
bance between them and the whites,,
and considering the general de

prosperous and content.
"Last week in the pity of Ral
eigh the colored people held a very
large and very succesful agricultu
ral fair, and the relations ' between j
tho planters and negroes had been
exceedingly kind. The almost in
variable contract between the two -j
was that the planters furnished the j
land, teams and implements and
fed the teams -while the negroes
fed themselves and divided the crop,
or paid jme-quarter of the crop as

they had moro than justice (jocose

the fact they were veryibnd of
going to law.'' :
"Is the republican i party at the
bottom of the movement?" .
"We cannot; trace ic to any other
influence. The people. tried to as

no other animus except political
influence can bo found. - There can't
