MACON, GA: THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 22. SPEECH OF *HON A.. H. STEPHENS, Delivered. in the Hall of the House of Repre sentatives of Georgia, Wednesday Evening, Nw. Uth, IH6O. [reported by a. e. marshal.] [Concluded.] If any view that I may present,in your judg ment, be inconsistent with the best interest of Georgi t, I ask you as patriots not to regard it. After hearing me and others whom you have advised with, act in the premises according to your own conviction of duty as patriots. I speak now particularly to the members of the Legislature present. There are as 1 have said great lingers ahead. Great dangers may come from the election spoken of. If the policy of Mr. Lincoln and his Republican associates shall be carried out, or attempted to be carried out, no m m in Georgia will be more willing or ready than myself.to defend our rights, interests and hon ,r at every hazzard and to the last extremity. (Applause.) What is this policy ? It is in the first place to exclude us by an act of Congress from the Territories with our slave property. He is for using the power of the General Government against the extension of our institutions. Our position on this point, is and ought to be, at all bazzards for perfect equality between all the States and the citizens of all the States in the Territories,under the Constitution of the United States. If Congress should exercise its power against this,theu 1 am for standing where Geor gta planted herself in 1850. These were plain propositions which were then laid down in her celebrated Platform as sufficient lor the disrup tion of the Union if the occasion should ever come; on these, Georgia has declared that she will go out of the Union ; and fur these she would l«e justified by the nations of the earth in so doing. 1 say the same; I said it then ; I say it now, if Mr. Lincoln's policy should be car ried out I hive told you that I do not think his hare election sufficient cause; but if his pol icy should be carried out in violation of any of the principles set forth in the Georgia Platform, that would be such an act of aggression, which ought to be met as therein provided for. If his policy shall be carried out in repealing or mod ifying die Fugitive Slave law so as to weaken its efficacy, Georgia has declared that she will in ti»e last resort disrupt the ties of the Union, ami I say so too. I stand upon the Georgia plat form, and upon every plank,and say if these ag gressions therein provide for, take place, I say to you and to the people of Georgia, keep your powder dry and let your assailants then have lead if need lie. [Applause.] I would wait for an act of aggression. This is my position. N<<w upon another point, and that the most difficult and deserving your most serious con sideration, 1 will speak. That is the course which this State should pursue towards those Northern States which by their Legislative acts have attempted to nullify the Fugitive Slave Law. 1 know that in some of these States their acts pretended to be bast d upon the principles set t ilth iu lhedeci'ion of the Supreme Court o*. the United States in the case f’rigg against Pennsylvania i that decision did proclaim the doctrine that the Stale officers are not bound to cany oat the prov isions of a law of Congress— that me Federal Government cannot impose duties upon State officials—that they must ex ecute their own laws by their own officers.— And this may be true. But still it is the duty of the States to deliver fugitive slaves as well a- the duty of the General Government to see that it is done. Northern States, on entering into the Federal Compact pledged themselves to surrender such fugitives; and it is in disregard of their consti tutional obligations that they have passed laws which even tend to hinder or imbibe the fulfill ment of that obligation. They have violated tiieir plighted faith ; what ought we to do in view of this? That is the question. What is to be done ? By the law of nations you would have a right to demand the carrying out of this article ol agreement, and 1 do not see that it should be otherwise with respect to the States of this Union, and in case it be not done we would by these principles have the right to com mit acts of reprisal on these faithless govern ments, and t. ze upon their property, or that of lhefr citizens wherever found. The . Lutes of this Union stand upon the same footing with foreign nations in this respect. But by the laws of nations we are equally bound, before proceeding to violent measures to set forth our grievances before the offending government,to give them an opportunity to redress the wrong. Has our State yet dune this? I think not. Suppose we were Great Britain that had vio lated some compact ol agreement with the Gen eral Government; what would be first done?— In that case our Minister would be directed in the first instance to bring the matter to the at tention of that government, or a commissioner be scut to tliat country to open negotiations with her, ask for redress, and it would-only be after argument and reason had been exhausted in vain.thai we would take the last resort of na tions. 1 fiat would be the course towards a for eign towards a member of this Confederacy, 1 would recommend the same course. Let us therefore not act hastily in this matter. Let your Committee on the State of the Republic make out a bdl of grievances ; let it be Sent by the Governor to those faithless States,and if reason and argument shall be tried in vain—all shall tad to induce them to return to tiieir constitutional obligations, 1 would be for retaliatory measures, such as the Governor has suggested to you. This mode of resistance in the I nion is it» our power. It might be ef fectual, and if in the last resort we would be justified in the eyes of nations, not only in sep arating from them, but using force. (Some one said the argument was already ex hausted. ) Mr. Stephens continued. Some friend says that the argument is all eady exhausted No, my friend, it is not You have never called the i attention of the Legislature of those States to ! this subject, that lam aware of. Nothing has ever been duue before this year. The attention of our own people has been called to this subject lately. Now then my recommendation to you would be this. In view of all these questions of dif ficulty, let a convention of the people of Geor gia lie called.to which they may be all referred. Let the sovereignty of the people speak. Some think tha* tin* election of Mr. Lincoln is cause sufficient to dissolve the Union. Some think those other grievances are sufficient to dissolve l the same, and that the Legislature has the pow- ; er thus to act and ought thus to act 1 have ' no hesitancy in saying that the Legislature is 1 not the proper body to sever our Federal rela tions. if that necessity should arise. An honorable and distinguished gentleman the i other night (Mr. T. IL IL Cobb) advised you to 1 cross roadsand groceries. I say to you, you have no power so to act You must refer this question to the people, and you must wait to heir from the men at tlie’ cross road# and even the groceries; for the people in this pormtry, whether at the cross road* or'the groceries, whether in cottages oFpalaceH, are all equal, and they are the sovereigns in this country. Sov eignty is not in the LegisMturw We, the peo ple, are the sovereign#. lam one or tberri find have a right to be hettd, and so has any other citizen of the State. You legislators, I speak it respectfully, are but our Servants. You are the servants of the people and not their masters. — Power resides-with the people in this country. The great difference between our country and all others, such as France and England and Ire land, is that h?re is popular sgvereknty, while there sovereignty is exercised by kings and fa vored classes. This principal of popnliw sover eignty, however much derided lately, is the foundation of our institutions. Constitutions are but the channels through which the popu lar wdi may ix* * expressed Our Gomjtitqti'un <nnie fr >in tb- ptThey made it. and they alone can rightfully unmake it. Mr. Toombs. lam afraid of conventions. Mr. Stephens. Lam not afraid of aiiy con vention fegnlfv^fifSstW 4 by’tht* p'dojSfiL f Know no way to decide great questions affecting fun damental laws except by representatives of the people. The constitution of the United States was made by the representatives of the people. The constitution of the State of Georgia was made by representatives of the people chosen at the b dlot-box, But do not let the question which Come before the people be put to them iu Lie language of my honorable friend who ad dressed you last night. Will you submit to ab olition rule or resist ? Mr. Toombs. Ido not wish the people to be •heated. Mr. Stephens. Now, my friends, how are we going to cheat the people by calling on them to elect delegates to a convention to decide all these questions without any dictation or direction?— Who proposes to cheat the people by letting them speak their own untrammelled views in the choice of their ablest and best men, to de termine upon these matters, involving their peace ? 1 think the proposition of my honorable friend had a considerable smack of unfairness, not to say cheat. He wished to have no convention, but for the Legislature to submit their vote to the people, submission to abolition rule or resis tance ? Now who in Georgia, would vote “sub mission to abolition rule ?” [Laughter, j Is putting such a question to the people to vote on, a fairway of getting an expression of the jjopulur will on these questions? I tlauk not. Now who in Georgia is going to submit to abolition rule? Mr. Toombs. The convention will. Mr. Stephens. No, my friend, Georgia will never do it. The convention will never secede from the Georgia platform. Under that there can be no abolition rule in the General Govern ment. I am not afraid to trust the people in convention upon this and all questions. Besides, the Legislature were not elected for such a pur pose. They came here to do their duty as Leg islators. They have sworn to support the Con stitution of the United States. They did mt come here to disrupt this Government. 1 am, therefore, for submitting all these questions to a convention of the people. Submit these ques tions to the people, whether they would submit to abolition rule or resist, and then let the Leg islature act upon that vote ? Such a course would be an insult to the people. They would have to eat their platform, ignore their past history, blot out their records, and take steps backwards, if they should do this. I have never eat my re cord or words, and never will. But how will it be under this arrangement if they should vote to resist, and the Legislature should reisserfible with this vote as their instruc tions ? Can any man tell what sort of resistance will be meant? One man would say secede; another pass retaliatory measures, these are measures of resistance ‘against wrong—legiti mate and right—and there would be as many different ideas as there are members on this floor. Resistance don’t menu secession—that iu no proper sense of the terin is resistan?e. Believ ing that the times require action, 1 am for pre senting the question fairly to the people, for calling together an untrammeled convention, and presenting all the questions to them wheth er they will go out of the Union, or what course of resistance m the-Union they may think best, and then let the Legislature act, when the peo ple in tiieir majesty are heard, and 1 tell you now, w hatever that convention does, 1 hope and trust bur people will abide by. I advise the call ing of a convention with the earnest desire to preserve the peace and harmony of the St ate. — I should dislike, above all things, to s e violent measures adopted or a io take the sword n hand, by individuals without the ai - thority of law. My honorable friend said last nigh l ,, “ I <isk you give me the sword, for if you do not give it to me, as God lives I will take it myself.” Mr. Toombs.—-I will. [Applause on the oth er side.] Mr. Stephens.—l have no doubt that my honorable friend feels as he says. It is only his excessive ardor that makes him use such an expression ; but this will pass off with the excitement of the hour. When the people in their majesty shall speak I have no doubt he will bow to their will, whatever it may be, up on the “ sober second thought.” [Applause.] Should Georgia determine to go out of the Union, I speak for one though my views might not agree with them, whatever the result may be, 1 shall bow to the will of her people. Their cause is my cause, and their destiny is my des tiny : and I trust this will be the ultimate course of all. The greatest curse that can be fall a free people, is civil war. But as I said, let us call a Convention of the people. Let all these matters be submitted to it, and when the will of a majority of the peo ple has been expressed the whole State will present one unanimous voice in iavor of what ever may be demanded, for I believe in the power of the people to govern themselves, when wisdom prevails and passion is silent. Look at what has already been done by them for their advancement in all that enobles man.— There is nothing like it in the history of the world. Look abroad from one extent of the country to the other, contemplate our greatness, we are now among the first nations of the earth. Shall it be said then that our institutions, found ed upon the principles of self-government are a failure ? Thus fnr it is a noble example worthy of imi tation. '! he gentleman, Mr. Cobb, the other nigiit said, it laid proven a Adore. A failure in what ? In growth. Look at our expanse in national power. Look at our population and increase in all that makes a people great. A failure, why we are the admiration of the civil ized world, and present the brightest hopes of mankind. Some of our public men have, in their aspi rations ; that is true, and from that conies a great part of our troubles. (Prolonged ap plause.) No. there is no failure of this government yet. We have made great advancement under tlie Constitution, and 1 cannot but hope that we shall advance higher still. Let us be true to our trust Now when this Convention assembles, if it shall be called, as I hope it may, I would say, in my judgment, without dictation, for I am conferring with you freely and frankly, and it is thus that I give my views, it should take into consideration all those questions which dis tract the public mind; should view all the grounds of secession so far as the election of : Mr. Lincoln is concerned, and I have no doubt 1 that they would say that the Constitutional ' election of no man is a sullicient cause to break <ip the Union, "but that the State should wait until he at least does some unconstitutional act. Mr. Toombs : Commit some overt act. Mr. Stephens: No. I did not say that. The word overt is a sort of technical term connect ed with trqainz which has come to us from the mother country, and it means an open act of rebellion. I do not see how Mr. Lincoln can do this unless he should levy war upon us. Ido not. therefore, use the word overt. Ido not intend to wait for that. But I use the word unconstitut onal act, which our people und r- I stand much better, and which expresses just what I mean. But as long as he conforms to the Constitution he should be let to exercise the duties of his office. 1 In giving this advice lam hut sustaining the country, and I do not thlre* by become a Lincoln Aid man either, [Ap plause,] but a Aid man. But this matter the Convention determine. As to the other matter, I think we have a to pass retaliatory measures, provided they he in-accordance with the Constitution of tire United States, and I think they can be made such. But whether it would be wise for this Legislature io do this ntow is the question. T 3 the Convention, in my judgment, this mat ter ought to be referred. Before we committed reprisals on England, we should exhaust every I means of bringing about a peaceful solution of ' the question. Thus did Gen. Jackson in the ' case of the French. He did not recommend re- , prisals until he had treated with France and , got her to promisa to make indemnification, ' and jt was only on her refusal to pay the mo- 1 nev which she had promised that he recom- ' mended reprisals. It was after negotiation had failed. I do think therefore, that it would be best I before going to extreme measures with our con federate Status to make the presentation of our demands, to appeal to their reason and judg- [ ment to give us our rights. Then if reason should not triumph, it will be time enough to commit reprisals and we should be justified in the eyes of a civilized world. At least, let the States know wh it your grievances are, and if they refuse, as I said, to give us our rights un der the Constitution of our country, I should be willing as a last resort to sever the ties of this Union. [Applause.] My own opinion is, that if this course be pursued, and they are in formed of the consequences of refusal, these States will recede, but if they should not, then let the consequences be with them, and let the | responsibility of the consequences rest upon them. Another thing I would have that Con vention to do. Re-aflinn the Georgia Platform with an additional plank in it. Let that plank be the fulfillment of the obligation as the part of those States to repeal those obnoxious laws on a condition of our remaining in the Union. Give them time to consider it, and I would ask all States South to do the same thing. I am for exhausting all that patriotism can demand before taking the last I would invite therefore South Carolina to a conference. I would ask the Same of all the other Southern States, so that if the evil has got beyond our control, which God in his mercy grant may not be the case, let us not be divided among our selves, (cheers.) But if possible secure the uni ted co-operation of all the Southern States and there in the face of the civilized world we may justify our action, and with the wrong all on the other side we can appeal to the God of battles to aid us in our cause. (Loud applause.) But let us not do anything in which any portion of our people may charge us with rash or hasty action. It is certainly a matter of great importance to tear this Government asunder. You were not sent here for that purpose. 1 would wish the whole South to be united, if this is to be done; and I believe if we pursue the policy which I have indicated, this can be effected. In this way our sister Southern States can be induced to act with us; and 1 have but little doubt that the States of New York and Penn sylvania and Onio, and tiie other Western States will compel their Legislatures to recede from their hostile altitude if the others do not. Then with these we would go on without New Eng land if she chose to stay out. A voice in the assembly. We will kick them out. Mr. Stephens. I would notkickthem out.— But if they chose to stay out; they might. I think moreover that these Northern States be ing piincipally engaged in manufactures would find that they had as much interest in the Un ion under the Constitution as we, and that they would return to their Constitutional duty—this would be my hope. If they should not, and if the Middle States, and Western States do not join us, we should at least have an undivided South. I am, as you clearly perceive, for main taining the Union as it is if possible. I will ex haust every means thus to maintain it with an equality in it. My principles are these: First, the maintenance of the honor, the rights, the equality, the security, and the glory of my native State in the Union ; but if those cannot be maintained in the Union, then I am for the maintenance, at all hazards, out of it. Next to the honor and glury of Georgia, the land of my birth, 1 hold the honor and glory of our common country. In Savannah 1 was made to say by the Reporters, who very often make me say things which 1 never did, that I was first for the glory of the whole country, and next for that of Georgia. 1 said the exact reverse ol this. lam proud of her history, of her pres ent stand. I am proud even of her motto, which I woul'i have duly respected at the pres ent time by all her sons —Wisdowm, Justice and Moderation. 1 would have her rights and that of the Southern States maintained now upon these principl'-s. Iler position now is just what it was in 1850, with respect to the other Southern States. Now I would add but one additional plank to that platform, which I have staled, and one which time has shown to be necessary. If till this fails, we shall at least have the sat isfaction of knowing that we have done our du ty and all that patriotism could require. Mr. Stephens continued for some time on other matters, which are omitted, and then took his seat amidst great applause. ' ])() YOIi’WxYNT D R Y-CIOODS?
