Th* drift of bis dicourse may be gatlier(ql fn?m o
.the following extract frofii a brief coinment*iir
the Southern Recorder:
“II is effoft vyis masterly beyond'example.—
He Reviewed.the state.of parties at the North,
and the aggressiotis to which the South had
longjielded tdemi reverence for the Union.—,
•Btft mftv the spoil was o hrokeq; danger was. at
our firesides; the eftemy was clutching at our
throats, and; it was either “do or di?..” The#
• pictures of fanaticism he Jrcw made’the blood

jio co’iyse lgft for dur safety, interest, and honor
but to secede from the Union immediately even
without delaying to ascertain the sentiments of.
the people, who tfituld not be so well infornftd
on tike subject as their were.”
We*nkusCenter our protest against Mr. Cobb’s
extrdbrdinary conclusion. ‘J he State of Geor
gia may have just eftuse to go out of the Union
and may detqrmifte to aftt upon that cause, and
at an eayly d®ay; bift if she.does it, will have
lkUe to hope fo£ by entering upon her new and
soveteign career, with ihe idea that? the peo
ple are no longer the*cightful sourfes of author
ity, antfthe sovereign arbiters of their own gov-,
trnment and destiny? \V3iat becomes of popi*-
lar righir and civTl liberty in sueh°a state pi
affairs!* For ourselves we differ in toto from
.Mr. Cobb, and believ*e that the safety, interest
anfl.honor of the S*tafe are secure in she hads
of the people —they have*never yet betrayed
them —and,durtliermore, that neither their Re
presentatives, nor any otfaer combinatio*n 0?
men,%ave the to wrest inherent power
from their hafids, and set themselves up as the
exclusive sovereigns of the land.
It is the very* essence of free government,
that the people —the^jverned— are supreme—
that their voice Is, in a civil sense, the voice of
God —and. it is an alarming indication of the
times, tlyit even one citizen should rise at the
capital asd proclaim that thqy are not to be
trusted, that their own safety, interest and hon
or are unsafe in their keeping— Sav. Republi

cussing the policy to be pursued by the Fder

‘flic Times says we may confide# •juirselves out
of the l uion, if we (Jioose —withdraw Senators
and uopres'entative*?, :rw<l stop the Courts and
the Mails with impunity.; but if we daretolay
hand qn the forts r refuse to pay the Federal
tritf duties, we will. have*a fight itpon to h
moral certainty.* That is tlie Seward view of
the matter.* .TJie Tribune, which made and
owns Lincoln,. in substance, • What we
quoted Uifore from cqjumns, and wlllcjuoto
1 agaiti at length! It is impossible to oVerrate
the importance of Mr. Greyly’s opinions just
Tiow. ‘ihe dead and forgotten*past of the
American liepublfc used to quote its Washing
ton, Madison* Jeffersqp—its Calhoun, Clay and
Webster—the republic pf the present and the
future points with pride to its Abe Lincoln —
its ! 1 orttce Grecly and its ]'’red Dougfas ! But
tliis is ;* digression. The Tribune says :
/‘That .was* a base and row tliafc
, tlye House once raised, at Southern dictation,
about the cai*: of John Qtyincy Adams, because
he presented a petition for the dn.*olution of
the l uion. I he* petjtioneß had a right to
“make the request.; j was the members duty „to
present it.° And now°if tl?e Cotton States con
sider the value of the Union debatable,
’ maintain their perfect right to discuss it. m Nay.

res; and if the Cotton Stages shall become
saisfied that tljey can do better out of the Union’
tliyn'in it, we insist ®n letting them g-o in peace.
The righ't to secedff’may be a revolutionary ond
but it* exists nevertheless; and we do not see
how one party can have a to do what an
other party has a to prevent. We inGst’
e*’(y rjsist the asserted right of any Stifte to re
main in thS o l niort and to nullify or defy the
laws thereof. .To withdraw from the Union is
quite* another iftiattcr. And “whenever a Con
siderable-section of our Union shall deliberately
resofve.to. go #ut, we resist all coeftive
measures designed ty keep it in. Me hope ne
ver to lfve *n a #epublic whereof one section is
pinne*d to tfye rcsidi*; by bayonets.”
*And, lastly,.the Herald says the Trjbuno
takes a sensible tftid practical view of the mat
ter. An attempt, at coercion will only blow the
fitbTic skyjiigh, without a possibility to survey
tlie pieces ; which if the Jiorth will oyly keep
quiet, the sdfceding Sftites will soon get tired,
► cohMnd* hungry, and long for a seat at the old
family table again. 0
• It is a fact that the ‘family table lias kept

and we may therefore miss it^accustomed war
