The people cj’ Georgia, having; dissolved tlinir
political connecfion with the governinetij: of the
Tnitcd States of America, present to her con
federates and the world, the causes which have
;bd to the separation. For ths last ton y<;ais,
! we have hsyl numerous and serious causes 0!’
Complaint, against manj of our jiotwslavcWlding
confederate States, in reference to rite Subject
of African slavery. *Thy* have endeavored U>
weaken our security—to disturb our domestic
peace a ltd trauijuiiity—and persistently refused,
to Comply wTtli their express constitutional oh-’
ligations to*us iti refewnee to that property,
| and by yie use of •their powef in the Federal
Government, have striven to deprive us of our
equal enjoyment <* the common Territories of
the IL public. r iclie l:<Jsti!e policy of our con-
I federates has*been pursued with every circum
stance of eggiwvatiim whicli could arouse the
(•passions i excite the.hatred of our people,
and has placed the two sections of tlie 1 nioa,
for many years past, in the* condition of virtu
al civil war. Our people, still attached to the
j Union from habft, and national tractions, and
aversion to change, hoped that time, reason and
argument, would bring, if not redress, at least
exemption from further insults, injuries amj
dangers, o liecent events have .fully dissipated
t all such hopes, and demonstrated the nA'<?essity
■ of separtftion. Our Northern confederates, af
| ter a full and calm reading of all the facts gut
ter fair warning of our fixed purpose not to sub
mit to the rule of the Authors of all these
wrongs and i. juries, have, by a large majority,
! committed the government of the United
I States into their bands. The people of Geor
gia,“after an equally full®and fair, and delibe
rate hearing of the case, have declared, with
equal firmness, that they shall not rule over
them. A brief history of the rise, progress
and policy of anti-slavery, and of the political
ofeauization into whose hands the administra
tion of the Federal Government*has becil eom
i mitted, will justify the pronounced verdict of
the p<ople of Georgia The o p;irty°of 3lr. Lin
i coin, called the Republican party, under its pre
sent name and organization, is of recent origin.
It is admitted to be an autUslavery “party;
while it attaches lo itself, by its creed, the scat
. *
tevi.d advocates of exploded “political heresies;
of condemned theories in political economy ;
the advocates of commercial restrictions, of
(‘protection, of special privileges, of waste and
corruption in the administration of government,
| anti-slavery is its mi.-.-ion and its purpose. - By
i anti slavery it is made a power in the State. —
The question of slavery was the greatest diffi
culty in the way of the formation of the Con
stitution. While the subordination, and the
political and social inequality cf the African
race were fully conceded by all, it was plainly
apparent that slavery would soon disappear
from what are the non-slaveliolding States of
the original thirteen. The opposition to slave
ry was then, as now, general in those States,
and the Constitu ion was made with direct ref
ference to that fact. But a distinct Abolition
party was not formed in the United States fer
more than half a century after the government
went into operation. The main reason was,
that the North, even if united, could not con
trol both branches of the Legislature during
1 any portion of that time j therefore such an or-
ganizatioii must have resulted either in* utter
failure, or tl\*> t >tal overthrow of the (lovern- ‘
meat. T|*o material prosperity of the North
was dependent on the Federal Govem
ii)out —that of the South not at aft. in the
first years of the Republic the navigating, com
mercial and manufacturing interests of the
North, began to seek “profit aTdaggrandis iment
at fne eij of the agricultural in;crests.—
Even the owners of fishing smacks sought an.!
obtained bounties for pursuing their own busi
ness, which yet continue, and over half a mill
ion of dollars are*n;>w paid them annually otkt
of thc’TTqgsury. The navigating interest peg
ged for pfobect'u :: against foreign*ship builders,
ami against competition in the c >a? ting t*
Cor gress grant’d both rcqueSts,"and J>y prohib*
iting acts gave* tin absolute monopoly of the
b i mess t<> each of there interests, which they
enjoy “wTfhout diminution to this day. Nut
content with these gfcat and unjust advantages*
they have sought to throw the lc Jlimate bur
thens of their business as much* qS j ossible
upon the public. They have suceSadcd in
tl.rowiti r the costs of Tght-houss.u buoys, and
the maintenance of their seamen imon the
0 aO
Treasury, and the Government now rays over
two millions annually for the*support of these ;
_il O t
objects. These interests, in connection with
the commercial and manufacturing classes, liave ]
also su . led, by*means of subventions to]
mail sfeamers and Alio reduction of postage in j
relieving their business from the payment of]
about millions of dollars .annually,” and
throwing it upi *. the public Treasury unde? the*
name of postal deficiency. The manufacturing j
interest entered inTo the same struggle early, ]
and has clamored steadily for govefnment boun
ties and special favors. This interest was con- ]
fined uiqinly to the Eastern ami* Middle norm ]
slttvchftlding States. Vieuling those gr<*at
States, *t Jielfl great power and influence, and
it’- .demands were i*t full proportion to its pow
or. The manufacturers and miners vrfcjy bas
ed their demands upon special facts and *rea
sons, ngher than upon general principles,, and
thereby modified much of the opposition of and
opposing interests® They jfieatiud in theft’vaE

These reasons prevailed, and they received, for
many vca*’s v c-wormous buntics by the general
acquiescence of flic whole country. But when
these i* 1 ’--jus ceased, they were no less clamo
rous fir government p inflection, but these clam
or.-*v,’ere h-s heeded. •“ he .country then put
the principle of pfotqetion upon trial, and con
demned i*. After having enjoyed protection’
to the extent <ff from fifteen to two hundred
per cent upon their entire business for above
thirty yea.?, the act of H 47 was® passed. It
avowed sudden change, buj the principle was
settled, and free tjade, low duties ar.d economy*
in public expend it u res was die wrdict of the
American public. The Sputh and the Norlh

was but small hop* <?f its reversal —upon the

The anti slavery sentiment at the Nort h offered
flic bust chance for success. A*n anti-slavery
party must .necessarily look to the North alone for

’ pcoi W: of the North, had been Ing dornvmt*
l or passive. It Tieedcd only a question to arouse
]it 1?ito aggressive activity. This question was
: before us. We had acquired a largq Territory
!by successful war with Mexico. Congress bad
to govern it. • How, in relation to slavery, was
the question # tben demanding*.solution. This
i of facts gave form and shape to the anti
; slavery seiftiment throughout the North, and
1 the conflict began.* Northern anti-slavery men,
i cf all parties, asserted the right to exclude
| slavery from this Territory by Congressional le
gislation. and demanded *he prompt, and t"ffi
! cicnt exercise of*this power to that end. This
insuhing and unconstitutional demand was met
; with great moderation and firmness by the
i South. We had shed our blood and paid cyr
] money for its acquisition—we demanded a di
vision of ll on the line of tli£ Missouri restric
tion, or an cyual participation in the whole of
it. These propositions were refuse-i. The agi
tation became general, and the “public? danger*
groat. The cause of the was impregna
te. The priec*of the acquisition was “blood
and treusuiq of both sections —of. all—and*
therefore it belonged ty) all? upon the piinciple-:
| of equity ami justice. The Constitution clola
; gate no power to (Congress to exclude ci*h*r
party from its free enjoyment. Therefore our
right wnsgood under the Constitution. Our
rights were further fortified by the practice of
the government from earlier and better days.--’
Slavery was forbidden m the country North-
West of the Ohio jiver, by what is culled” the
ordinance of i787. That ordinance was adopt
ed undciMlie old Confederation, and by the as
sent of Virginia, who fcwncH and ceded the
country, and, therefore, tills case must stand
upon its own special circumstances. The gov
ernment of the United States claimed Territory
liv virtue of the treaty of 1'783, with Great
Britain; acquired -territory by cessions from
Georgia and North Carolina ; by treaty ‘from
France; and by treaty from Spain. These ac
quisitions largely extended the original lijnits
of the Republic. ‘ln all of these acquisitions
the policy of the Government was uniform.—
It opened them to the settlement of all the cit
izens of all the States of the Union. They
emigrated thither with their property of every
kind, including slaves. All were equally pro
tected by public authority in their persons and
property until the inhabitants became sufficient
ly numerous, and otherwise capable of bearing
the burthens and performing the duties of self
goverument, when they were admitted into the
Union upon equal terms with the other States,
with whatever republican constitution they
might adopt for themselves.
Under this equally just and beneficent poli
cy, law and order, stability and progress pow
er and prosperity, marked every step of the
