Read them over carefully and then tell us reader, if Mr. Dix is a freesoiler, what is Alexander Hamilton Stephens, the represen tative from Georgia, from the seventh district, in Congress ? Mr. Dix's Letter, 1853. Ist That I am not and never have been an abolitionist in any sense of that term. On the contrary, I have been an open and uniform op ponent of all abolition movements in this state, and elsewhere, since they commencedin 1835, to tue present time.— While in the Senate of the United States lop posed the extension ot to iree territory —a question entirely dis tinct from the interfer ence with slavery where it already exists. In the latter case. I have stea dily opposed all external interference with it. 2d. That I have on all occasions, public and private, since thoFugi tive Slave Law passed, declared myself in favor of carrying it in to execu tion in good faith, like every other law of the land. 3d. That I was in fa vor of the union of the democracy of this state, which was consummated in 1850, continued in 1851 on the basis of the Compromise Measures, aDd in 1852, on the basis of the Baltimore Plat form. 4th. That I have.sinco the Baltimore Conven tion, in Juno, 1852, re peatedly given my pub lic assent to its proceed ings and acquiesced in its declarations, as an adjustment of disturbing questions, by which I was willing to abide.

I am candid and frank in my acknowledg ment. This acquisition will give additional pow er to the southwestern section in the national councils; and for this purpose I want it—not that I am desirrusto see an extention of the “area of slavery,” as some gen tlemen have said its ef fect would be. I am no defender of slavery in the abstract. Liberty always had charms for me, and I w uld rejoice to see all the sons of Adam's family, in every land and clime, in the enjoyment of those lights which are set forth in our Declaration of In dependence as “natural and inalienable if a stern necessity, bearing tbo marks and impress of the hand of tho Crea tor himself, did not, in some cases,interpose and prevent. Such is tho case with States where slavery now exists. But I have NO WISH TO SEE IT EXTENDED TO OTHER COUN TRIES ; and if tho an nexation of Texas were for tho sole purpose of extending slavery whore it does not now, and would not otherwise exist, I SHOULD OP POSE IT.
