At the risk of being wearisome but en< aged by your marked friendship, I will gltfo you a statement of the case* * Thb meeting of October, 1849, was a con vention of delegates equally representing the Wing and Democratic parties m Missis sippi. The resolutions were decisive as tp equality of right in the South with tlie North to the territories acquired from Mexico, aud proposed a Convention of the Southern States. I was not a member, but on iuvita- tion addressed , the convention. The suc ceeding Legislature instructed me, as a Senator, to assert this equality, and under the existing circumstances to "resist by all constitutional means the admission of Cali fornia as a State. * At a called session of the Legislature in 1850, a self-constitutional committee.called on me, by letter, for my views. They wove men who had enacted or approved the resolutions of the conven tion of 1849,' and instructed me, as member of the Legislature in the regular session, in the early part of the year 1850. To them I replied that I adhered to the policy they had indicated aiid instructed me in their official capacity to pursue. I pointed out thejnode 'n which their pol icy could, in my opinion, be executed with out bloodshed or disastrous convulsion, but in ttpuw of bitter scorn alluded to Slush as would insult me with a ddsiic to destroy the Union* for whfoh my whole life proved me to lie a devotee. Pardon the egotism, in consideration of the occasion, when I say to you that my fatltfT and my uncles: fought through the revoligion of 1776, giving their youth, blood and their little patrimony to stitiitional freedomwlnch'i cialii^SHi-„ — heritance. Three of my brothers fought in the war of 1812, two of them wcrc comrades of the Hero ot the Hcnintage, and received his commendation for gallantry at New Orleans. At Jixteeni years of age I wj§ giv en to the sendees ofThy^country; for twelve years I have borne its arms and served it zealously, if not well. As I feel the £ tiea which suffering' more than as brought upon lite, it would be a tmter rc- ffeetion indeed if I ‘.-was forced to conclude that iny couutryman would hold all this light when weighed against the empty pan- ogyric which a tiuza-serving politieian can bestow upon the Union, for wllich lie never made a sacrifice. In tl\e Senate ! announced tluit if any re- spectable,man would call mo adisunidnist, I would* answer'liim in monosyllables. Oil many^ occasions, in public speeches made in Mississippi,-! have said, if any .man would come forward and charge me with a desire to destroy the Union, I would cram the lie. down his throat. Hut I have often asserted the right, for which the battles, of the revo lution were fought—the right of a people to change tlieir government whenever it was found to be oppressive, and subversive of the objects for which governments are insti tuted—and-have contended for the indepen dence and sovereignty of the States, a part of the creed of which Jefferson was the apos tle, Madison the expounder, and Jackson’the consistent defender. I have written freely, and more? than I designed. -'Accept my thanks for your friendly advocacy.

Unstable persons walk fast and slow by tarns. Venturous persons try all roads, frequently climb tlie fences instead of going througe the gate, and nev er let down a bar. Gne-idea persons and very selfish ones “ toe in.” Cross persons are apt to hit their kees together. Good natured persons snap heir fingers evexy few steps. Pun loving people have a kind of a jig movement. D* W. C. 8PENCER, Secretary. Albany. April 13lh, 18C5.-tf. - • . ^ Albany Chapter No: 16, A. Y. M.
