Having purnuitfed thp use of W y naoi2 a>
a candidate foe Governor, at the ar proich
mg election, 1 dc e na it right au.] prop r" ih
wy opinions and feeiings, Sl!
Mr a- they relate to the great struggle for
Southern independence, should be uadt
known to those whose privilege and duw it
is to vote.
i uLj not desirous ot concealment—have
not one single opinion to suppress; but nm
willing that iny position should be kuown,
and if ] receive but one vote, let that be j
east understanding^
It is known to my friends that I wa.- ar
dently “.Southern rights*’ in 1850, and a
secessionist in 1800. Having been elected
to a scat in the State Convention of l£6l.
attor a warm contest, I, in that Convention,
earned out the wishes ot my constituents,
and subserved my own feelings and opiuftn*
b) casting my vote lor tbe ordioance of se*
cession.
I was then a secessionist from principle.
Lam such still, ."nibsequent events liav<
uot. been of a character to conviuee me 1 wu
in error. 1 tell thr.t we bad reached that
point when we could no longer, with hpnor
remain united vritii the North. We W er
being pressed gradually to the wall. Er.
croaehmeut after encroachment had been
submitted to; insult after insult had beeu
heaped upon us, and this, too, by a people
our equal in nothing, and our superbts
only in treachery and hypocrisy. After fat
temug upou our substance, serpent like,they
sought to instil into our economy the deadly
poi«ou ot every i*m that their perverse, viti
ated and fanatical natures, assisted by u
devilish ingenuity, could devise, lieceiv mg
some degree of warmtn in their cold and
cowardly hearts, from their success and our
sufferance, they became emboldened to stael
our property, and, by legislative action, to
throw around themselves that protection
which, while it would serern thcniiselves
from „the penalties ot a violated contract,
would bring death or imprisonmnt to those
who sought to reclaim their stoh u j»roi.«-rty.
They Dad deiermiued, by wL; j„v r y<»us
j necessary, to exclude, directly or in directly
i our “peculiar institution 1 ’ from a. D h-pv ,r V
1 acquired or to be acquired I r.o* \r
' satisfied, but like the daughter-. dj h-.';r« b
leech, still crying ' tfi, , kaogu
i rated “the irrepressible conflict,'' qrii uoi. i
! that issue placed at the head of he Govern
! merit a man whose chief friends were the
! supporter 4, and among them ih ; very an
1 thor of this iuTiatical doctrine.
I believed then, that the insntntion of
slavery was in danger, the h of the
involved. I felt UYar. time for
action-'- for positive aetioi. —h»G arrived.
We had reasoned with our enemies—had
placed before them “in tbou-ihts "hat
breathe, and words that hum,” r.hs conse
qneure.i of their continued ugjref.ionr,—
Our predictions were unheeded- -our threats
laughed ar, and our answered 'v
renewed aggressions. J saw no grounds lor
hope, no permanent settlement with our
honor untarnished. A change of parties,
in the future, might take place at the North,
but this hope was feeble, and promised only
temporary cessation of hostiliiies to tbs
South, and nothing like permanent quiev.
The tide of fanaticism was swelling and
growing—gaining strength at every surge,
and needed but one more ellfort to eugulph
aud overw helm* us.
In all this, I felt sufficient justification
for casting my vote for secession. Slavery,
already in danger, by such a course might
be imperilled—but I preferred to meet the
danger promptly, and if lose if, vie must,
let it be abolished by the strength «f bayo-
Met and not by our abject sur
render. If l must yield my rights and
property to tbo insatiate Yankee, there is a
pride withiu me that would be less crushed,
by a firm and manly resistance, than were
I to submit tamely and unresistingly.
If I was justifiable thou, in sanctioning a ;
disruption of tho Union—the reasons duce ;
have multiplied—aud growu from stream- j
lets to rivers — from molehills to mountiius. i
They present insuperable barriers to my- j
thing savoring reconstruction.
The idea that the Union was broken up,
with a view to its reconstruction on a more
permanent basis, is altogether new. I uev- j
er heard of it, until recently elicited from a
distinguished Georgian. Ir. eertainly did
not find a place in auy seeessiou programme j
that met my observation. I myself, regard- 1
ed the disruption permanent and complete,
and have never seen the day, even wien
our country was enveloped in gloom of the
deepest hue, that I had the slighiest cl (fire 1
to reconstruct upon any terms. What was
suspicion then, as to Yankee character, is
confirmation now. Fully developed by the
war, it is exhibited in all its Lid isntfs —
presenting to the gaze of the v<-rid the
blackness of a malignant heart —com lined .
with cunning, arrogance, treachery, ar i
every other principle that contract the
heart of sinful man.
With such a people 1 want no a Ya’io\
political or social, I would erect petweer
u? a Chinese wall,or sink an iinpot ;i.ule gulf.
No act of mine, official or private shall be
erven >o reconstruction on any termt. Let
no man, therefore, longing to return to the
tleshpots of Egypt, east his vote i. r me as
an exponent of bis views and I
would not only refuse such a reeoi struction
as Mr. Lincoln might propose on terms of
subjugation and abolition, but would equal
ly oppose Mr. Vall&ndigham’s proposition
for the “Erring wayward sisters to return
to their allegianee” Their punic faith—
our losses, privations, sufferings and bereaf e-
Bsnts, all forbid it. If we faded to dv# at-
getbt.* it harm;i when the rpcoilecioo?

courage have kept the invader from our
homes, from such we bear uo wold but iu
