Fo be more explicit in regard to myself I
j will add, tliat I never ‘belonged, anl do not

It would be the greatest misfortune that
could befal us as a people to TU'*st.uUesecri
1 and private arrangements in affairs of Gov
ernment, for the free and open discussion
!of principles and measures, which has iiap
pUy prevailed in tills county, since the dec
laration of American Independence.
If the hypothesis on which our Govern
ments State and Fedir il, are establishe 1 be
true, that man is capable of self govern
ment, it follows that he will act intelligent- (
ly in selecting the means of promoting hit
individual and social happiness Our con
stitutiocs. State and Federal, prove that our .
ancestors have done all that wisdom and
forecast of man could accomplish, to provide
for the happiness ami prosjerity of them
selves and their posterity. It was a day
light work. It was not done in a cot ner. All ,
the light that human reason and intelligence
could shed upon it illuminated every step ol j
its progress to consummation. Hearts full j
of patriotism and devoid of crrupi ye trning
after office and its emoluments were in it —i
If the work is not ]>er. f eet it is not because ,
the Artificers engaged in it were not faith
ful Loaest an l skillful. When they were a- j
bjut to coinpie e it: they lo -k'-d uj-oa it, and !
liketru'y gre it men diffident of themselves- ]
and knowing that experience iu the opera <
t on of their system might th-vehipe defects J
which had cot been detected by theyf, and j
that in the distant future, new exigencies 1
might arise which wtuld render a change
.ndi.-j.eusably necessary to the safety* and j
happiness of the miHkms of people destined
to enjoy its blessings, ptrovi led tor the tank <
ing of that cha>gc. 1
The mode in which amendments are pro
posed to be made proves that the framers of
the Constitution never contemplated that
their descendant sh uld take tounc: to et -
er on them in secret cl qurs bu that sup.
t o e l defects would be pointed cut, altera
tions j reposed, and that the whhle matter i
should be fully and frankly discussed by the 1
people nnd their Representatives, in their |
Legislat’ve Assemblies that all the lighl 1
rhat troth reason and argument could shed j
upon it. might be brought into requisition,
and that what was right should he done, up
on the friendly consultation of intelligent j
uib.ds h. ving no objects but the } u hi - good i
The people of the South ought to look well !
to it before they countenance, by their ap i
proval e.n i example secret conddnat ons to j
lefeat either their constitnti n or laws.— j
Their rights depend on a fair exposition ot
the constitution, and an honest support i)f it
What right is m ;re clearly defined in the 1
constitution, than that of the Southern slave ‘
owner, to have Ms fugitive slave found in n
free State, ueliverel up: None whatever
Congress has mat ed a law to enforce it.—
The law to enforce cannot impose a higer
m nnl obligation on tiecitl::-n than the cn
s:itution, winch requires it. Both c >nsti
tution and law have been opp. r ;sed, even to •
blsod she*l and murder, and the execution j
of the law and constitution lias been forci- ;
bly prevented There is no stronger guar
anty to be found in the constitution in favor
of the slave holders’ right of property, than
there is iu favor of the Roman Catholics’
right of conscience. Both are protocol
May, it not be well .asked of the anti Catho
lic slave holder who resorts to secret confed
eracies and com Lina ions to defeat the con
stitmional rights of the CalhoLcs as free
priviledged citiicns of this Union, if he caa

The oljccts and purposes of the secretoor
der, arc not fully known. But public ru
mor says, and the elections which have tak
en plaeo. establish as one of their obj jots,
the exclusion from office, of all professors of
the Roman Catholic religion. If so, it is an
nuiling iu practioe, one of the most valuable
provision which protects alike the Catholic
and Protestant. The original constitution, j
snbiuittel to, and ritifiil by the people. ■
declares, that *• no religious test shall be re
quired to any office of public trust under the |
, United States *’ The very first amendment
. of the constitution proves the high apprecia- ;
tion placed by the people on religious libcr
! ly, fur tliey re<juired a stronger projection
of the rights of conscience: and added that
Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, qr prohibiting the
free exercise thereof. Hence it will be seen,
that so far as the government brought into
existenoe by tb* adoption of the federal con
stitution ia concerned the freedom of rciig
ious faith was leit inviolate an l m-i<leinvio
lablc. As citizens of the United States, we
j owe obedience to tae constitution aud con
stitutional laws of the United States, nnd the
private citizen is a9 much bound morally to
support all constitutional requirements as
the official citizen is to enforce them by 5
Larislative enactments and ministerial effort. ,
As long as they exist, they sh.a<d he respect
ed, obeyed and supported. There should be
1 no combination open or secret, to defeat
them. If they are wrong or defective, they
should be expunged or changed, and mads
! to conform to the public interest.
I'isbelief; then in the Roman Catholic re
: ligion, does not warrant assault upon the
rights of the Roman Catholic believer, any
• more, than for tty* same reason, assult may
be made on the political rights of citizens of
t the protestant faith. The constitutional
’ rights of both ought to he respected, and sus
| twined If it be said that flie nssaolt is on
the religion, nnd not on the folitical rights
of the Roman Catholics and that tfcejjefest
of political rights is only a mesne vt sttbdn
ing the religion, let it be remembered that
tho hypocrite alone who lias a highef regard
i lor office thau for nr.y religion or religious
faith* will be gained by it. If the order
wsh to convince of i ellgious error, they
must not expect to do it by pwrsccntion of
any sort; they must excite no resen Ur.ants
: and beget no hatred it may be urged that,
; the constitution of the United States pirht
bits tlie federal government alone ftom in
terfering with the religious litierty of the
citizen, and that itc.w.tlns no ittlubit'.pn to
the States, against-the establishment of rc-
ISgtow. and that the States may establish a
religion—[t will scarcely be a vowel that
i one of the objects of society is to alter the
’ constitution of the State, and establish arc
■
. ligion in Georgia. Such an opinion will
scarcely be entertained by any one But
the carrying into Qffect the *)leged purpose
of excluding a citizen from office on aecoant
of his reUgiittii faith, is opposad to ?|ic Jdng
/ established jolicy of this State; sustained
;by stringent constitutional provisions. The
people of tlris State Miowed the highest esti
mate placed by them on religious liberty by
declaring in their constitution, that uno
. pet son within this State, shall, upon any
1 pretence, be deprived of the inestimable ,
privilege of wqrsltipping God in a manner)
agreeable to his own conecienoe,” and by
further declaring, that * no Religions socie
ty shall ev r be ostablished in this State i
in preference to another, nor shall any per
son he denied the enjoyment of any Oivil
i rnere.y on account of his religious (
; principle. 1 ’ Arc these great ami cardnal j

■ an esc-ption against the Rpman Cathctlic to i
be interpolaled in fact or in practice ? Is j

If it be not iatendcl to introduce a now or
der of things, and refer nil measure!? of gov- ,
ernment to secret st-cieties to decide what i
shall bed ine with the people, there can be *
no good re.is u wht-ref. ro the expediency j

of expattri.ition. When a ruin cxpxtri- ■
ates himself, he adjures allegiance to the j

If he connects himself with another govern J
meat, with the consent of that government, j
and pledges his allegiance to it, ha is enti- j
■ tied to its protection, for himself, his fafttily
| and his property.
If, in the new country of which he be- i
comes a member, the private citizens arc cn- ,
titled to certain privileges, aud among them
a voice in the choice of rulers, why should
it be denied to liim ? There is but one ar
gumeut against it, an l that is, that he may
rn>t be sufficiently acquainted with the na- j
ture of our government nud institutions to |
j enable him to make a judicious selection
The answer to that is, tn*t the law pre
scriL-s for him & term of pupilage, with
in which he may inform himself in these
things.
It appears to have been the policy of our
State governm *nt, at a very early’ | erio-l, to
admit foreigners to am- the rights or
‘citizenship. Before the adoption of the
Federal Constitution, a resideuce of twelve
months within the State, an 1 pr< o s os good
character, and attachment by the certifi
cate of the grand jury, entitled a foreigner
to take the oath of allegiance to the State,
and lie was declared by statute to l>e .. enti
tled to all the rights, liberties and imutuni
ties of free citizens he was nevertheless,
incapable of holding office and of voting for
members of the Gcueral Assembly, for <he
! term of seven years, and until, by special
, act of the Legislature, he was enabled to do
‘so, 0n the adoption of the Federal Consti
tution, and the enactment of anew iatt un
der it for the naturalization of fbrergners,
our State.law became inoperative aud void.
The *©f of Congress took its place. As the
terse of time requisite to indoctrinate them
in the true principles of our government,
must necessarily be a matter of opinion
and judgement with those who have the au
thoritv to fix it, the d : screti?*n followed the
1 power, and both were vested in Congress.—
s Cougress has fixed five years as the term of
pupilage, within which it was supposed they
might acquaint themselves with these things.
If in the judgment of the people, the term
:of probation ought to be extended—if the
naturalization laws are otherwise defective,
let it be shown, and they can be amended ;
* but the right of a foreigner to expatriate
hisaself from his government can never he
’-disavowed in this county; and we can never
claim from him the support of his head and
his heart, las parse and his arms, and deny
. 1 bn the rights and privileges of citizenship.
If the terms on widely these rights are lo be
{granted are fixed by law, and lie confoyms
jto them, they form the government's com
pact With him, and it cannot be violate*! ei
ther by government or eitizen. without a j
’ breach of faith. The standard of merit and ;
j qualification for office ought to be as much
j regarded in a foreign born as in a native cit- i
izea. and shquld be as Lightly appreciated ]
in selections oilmen for office, and accident >
]of foreign birth ought not to visited on him
; as a crime.
But, sir, a graver objection to this insti
] tution, so far as the^South is concerned, is
to be found in its connection with open an l
] avowed abolitionists at the North—men in- 1
i iutuated by the spirit of fanaticism, ene- 1
i jhies of the Constitution, imbued with an
j immitigable hatred of Southern people and <
! the.” institution of slavery, and ready to re
I sort to nny device or any intrigue to destroy j
j with a remorseless disregard of the hor-
j r and consequences lhat may ensue. What
ffifjth Is to be expected from such men : If i
they profess to their Southern brethren of j
J this fraternity, that they will abaudon their
i u jMjsition to slavery,.do they not come with !
| gu; t in their Learts and falsehood on tlreir *
!il - A heavy responsibility will rest on *
the Southern men, if tliey form an alliance
1 and treaty ofTmsive and defensive with men |
r empty professioßS, in hostility vrltli their 1
history and conduct iu the entire past Such i
an a,! mce will give an insiduons enemy ,
strength, and enable him to aci-ouiydish bis
neftiribus designs on oar const it rttional
rigiils. It is to be hoped that they will
pause before they take the fiual step and !
sal the bargin. Who belong to the Kn**w

b 1 mg to it there, who lay down ] r nclplcs j
wuic : seem, upon a superficial examination, i
to 1 ave but little or no bearing upon the in
at, u.ion of siav.ry, but which, in their
even'iu. operation, will destroy it. They i
hoM in the first place, that in territory con
tjuered from a foreign country where slave t
rv h prohibited, this political regulation
Laying a condition) shall become a law to
tuc conqiti-mr* (wiio, by the laws of his
country, may uwa slaves) to divest him ol 1
this spec.e# of his property. They jleny the *
power of Congress to protect this kind u!
property from aggression and wrong, nud
have refused their protection, thus drawing
a di-t'ngfloß against it, and to that extent ‘
putt : g the owner out of the protection of

Idcr. belong Li: there, who aim at the ul
t. destruction of slavery, by the ndmis
sii nos tree States to a number sufficient to
•ft ct an amendment of the Federal Consti
tution. and give Congress jurisdiction over
the sutij >et. Men beloug to it there of eve
ry variety, but all of whom agree in the two
dungs—first, that slavery ought to be abo
lished, and secondly, that it shall be abo
lished.
Sorely, Southern men will consider these
thirg*, as if they have associated the mselves
with this order for the purpose of accom
plishing objects which they believed to be
beneficial to the country, finding the grave
.error into wiiicii they have fallen, will they
not separate themselves from it ? Tlieseen -
c j of the moveiiK-ut is wrong, and contrary to 1
the spirit and genius of our government. —
May not every citizen ask, if there be tu
covert -design against my character, my
property, my civil or religious rights, why
cover consultation with darkness an l secre
cv ? There is no precedent for it in any free
i government.
The independence of this country was not
declared in secret. It was proclaimed in
| open day. The reasons for separating from
i the crown of England were plainly, publicly
and fearlessly given. The terror of the
power of England was uot sufficient to in
1 tim'd ate and deter our noble fathers from ■
the open and public denunciation TheCou 1
-dilution of the United States was uot a mid
! night proluction and the Constitutions of the
sevoral States wore formed upon open and
! public discusion. They all acknowledge
| and proclaim the principles of human rights
j and liberty, nnd are intended to se.-ure
them. They are written as with n pencil of •
] light, and surely they cannot be destroyed
j but by the works of darkness.
Why should any portion of the people of |
! the South engage in machinations to defeit j
ja single blessing secured by the Con.ia- j
stion ? Why should we twt all rally and u
’ nitc together at the South to save the Con
stitution ?
The grave objections urged but a short
, time past to a sectional party, have given
i away and the public mind has now become
pretty well satisfied that if a sectional
| sectional party is gotten up in one part of
| the Union to destroy the Cons'.ilution, an
i other sectioual party may be gotten up to
j uphold anl support it. But a party organ-
izedon principle, not departing in any of its
tenets and practices from tli* Constitution,
but adhering toil in all its parts with fidel
ity and truth, will not long be a sectional
‘party. Patriotic men will rally to it from
atl quarters. Sound men of the North and
the South, of the East and the West, will
stand toge'her on the broad am! strong plat
i form of the Constitution. It is the glorious
platform os the Democratic party —emphat-
ically the party of the Constitution- It is
the glorious platform which needs no amend,
m- n* to suit dainty tastes or scrupulous con
sciences. Men who can relish the Constitu
tion and conscientiously approve its pruvi
* s]yns, can staud upon it without fear and
without reproach It is not a platform con
structed, of.rickety materials, to hold politi-
cal meu of no particular opinions, ready to ■
. fall to pieces on the slightest shock.
Why, then, cannot all meet together and j
act together on this great platform ? It is
, not wrong if the constitution is right.
The circumstances under which I have 1
.written have prevented me from answering J
■ your enquiry and treating the subject in a
1 satisfactory manner, I trust however thnt
when pubhshed what I have written will j
correct the reports which have been circula- !
ted.
i sincerely hope thnt the jumble into J
which things have got will be but eplreuier
• al. and that all heads at the South will meet J
i together in open council, with hearts full |
! of patriotism, resolve on constitutional meas
ures of safety, which ali sections ought to
approve.
I have the honor to be, very respecfully, j
your frieud and obedient servant,
