After communicating some of . tho present dangers and unbearable griev* anccs of tho South Gov. Ellis makes tho following fetariimendatlons; In viow of the perilous condition of the country, it is, in my opinion, be coming and proper tlmt wo should have some consultation with thoso States identified with us in interest and in the wrongs we have antlered; and especial ly those lying immediately adjacent to us. As any action of ours would of necessity materially affect them, it would be but consistent with the ami cable relations that have over existed between us, to invite them to a consul tation upon a Question tlmt so deeply affects us all. **>om a calm and delibe rate consideration.of the best mode of avoiding a common danger, much good might result aud no evil could. In thus proceeding we would show* to tho world a disposition to exhaust ev ery peac&ble remedy for the solut ion of our difficulties and a firm determina tion to maintain our rights "in the Un- ion if possible, and oat oi it if necessa ry-" Such a step, too, would bo but a ho coming mark of respeot to tlmt consid erablo portion of the peopio of tho non- siuvoholding States who have ever been diipbHed to acknowledge us as eqnals in the Union, and who have, on many oc casions, gallantly struggled to secure our Constitutional rights. I therefore, respectfully recommend tlmt you invite the Southern States to a conference, or such of them ns may bo inclined to enter into consultation with us upon the present condition of the country. Bhonld such a conference be found impracticable, thon I would recommend the sending of one or more delegates to our neighboring States with th©' view of securing concert of action. I also think that the publio.safoty re quires n recurrence to oui- own people of nil expression of this opinion. Tho wilt of the pooplo onoo expressed will bo a law of action with all, and secure tlmt unanimity so necessary in nn emergen cy like tho present. I thereforo recommend tlmt a Con vention of tho peopio of tho State bo called to nssomhlo immediately af ter tho proposed consultation with other Southern States shall havo termi nated. Tho subject of our military defences will require your parly attention. I would rcoommend a thorough reor ganization of the militia and tho en- rolment of ail persons botweon tlie ogre of 18 and 4b yean. With such a regulation our muster-roll would con- tain near a hundred and ten thousand men. 1 Would also recommend tho for mation of a corpa^ of ten thousand volunteers, with an organization sepa rate from the trikin body of the militia, and that they-be suitably armed and equipped. • v • condition that tho right of secos- sloh*lkjreserved.' Tho’Kantucky reso lutions are quoted also ns sound author ity in. support of tho snmo great prinoi- • lie. It seems to us to matter very lit tle whether tlio government 1ms made provision for its own' dissolution. The questions now pressing upon us involve our constitutional rights and equality. Jf wo submit to them wo evince u crav en disregard for the heritage bcQiimlh- ed us by our fathers, and tacome the servile subjects of a reckless majority, acting in violation of the teller a ml spir it of.the Constitution. Wo have abun dant cause for revolution, rebellion, or any other niodo of resistant*© which an ii\juirtd party may choose to avenge ids wrongs, Wo therefore rognrd ull dis cussion on the abstr.u-t right of »octM- •Ion as a just deduction from tlio con stitutional compact, us of nn practical importance. If our Northern brethren consider us trilors, let them bring on their bailors and Uispotfuol’iiH. if they do not, wo will quietly eorguuize a gov ernment suited to our institutions, and leave them to tho enjoyment of the do- itarted glories of a Union outraged and broken by their violence mid notours. But whether secession is a legimnto remedy for unconstitutional oppression or not, it is not treason,, oven if a sov ereignty can commit treason. Tho Con stitution defines treason against tho United States to bo “in levying war agalns them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them idd’and fomfort.” While the Federal Government has a right "tOQxccute tho laws of the Union suppress Insurrection, and repel inva sions" It hn« no constitutional power to coerce a seceding State; for withdraw ing from tho Union is neither commit ting insurrootion or invosion, and there is no law providing for coercion. Therefore, when a Stato It-uves the Union, there is uo practicable remedy for it. A government of force is obnox ious to every principle of Republican ism, ns it is to every consideration ot po litical economy, Wo shall not, there fore, consume our space in disgussing the right of secession. It is enough for its to feel that evyvy ^consideration of honor, into rent, safety, and peace de mand that we withdraw from a govern ment controlled by a hostile fanatical majority, which denies us our plain, constitutional rights, and fail* Vo atlbrd religious, sociul and j*olitieul equality, and protection which is th© object of a freo government,—Aug. lH». The Fugitive Slave Law. The Constitution of tbo United States gives, mid was intended by its founders to g'Vo to tho ownevs of slaves a com plete right to theft property Into what ever Stato of the Union it might csOapo Its explicit language is : “3. No person held to service qv la bor in one State, under tho laws there of, escaping into another, shall, in con sequence of any law or regulation there in, be discharged from such service, or labor, but shall bo delivered up on claim cf the party to* whom sueli ser- yieo or lutar may He due." It is.theelenr duly of the Repul liran party to prevent ull attempts, whether by Stale Lerislation- dr otherwise, to thwart rtnd nofcit this proVIsfhn of the Constitution. If tho party thinks that the South luw given ]m»vocations.which justify this inodo of retaliation, it may he correct ns to tlie reality of the prov ocations, hut It certainly em its to their (ittbrding a justification for tho violation of auy part of the Constitutional com pact.—New York World, Republican.
