„e I am willing to malta the effort, ami 1 exlioit our Southern people to cherish, o feeling inimical to success, and omit 0 duty that may promote it. We have ( ,ore interest iu restoring constitutional i overnmeut than any other people, for if 1 Bspotism shall come over all, North aud oath, there is reason to fear that serf. ui of the South to the North will he r darkest portiou. You know I never mrded secession ns wise in act. for, Jwever legal or just it may, or moy not ve been as an abstract right, I never elioved it would prove practicable as a aniedy. I have never doubted that a 0 Uig ti reut collision between centralism nd constitutional federalism would,soon- later, come. 11 ut, by the States in \ [ie Union, and for the liberties of the j oople, was always my favorite plan to , Mike the fight, ltut for the sensitiveness j 1 slavery we might have made that fight | lily in the Unior. Let. therefore, sects- j m and t-lrve y be bur ed out of sight, | d, though late, let us make oue more : itmmiueii effort, iu tbefornmof reason, j id at the ballot-box, to save the treas- • fl s we are losing. Wo should not pull i nvu tho Temple our fntheis built be- ! use thieves and money changers dose- j ,te it. ltather, uuder tho inspiring .jwories of 187<», let uh wake up the [eeping god of patriotism, and cast out despoilers, aud consecrate the Templo . w to the equality of the Slates aud to ie liberties of our children! There is but oue beginning for this nk. We must elevate the Htalesmuu- ip of the country. Iu all republics au becile statesmanship has succeeded a aud we buvo not escaped the lourge. It is because ineu, ut such oics, rise iuto power on passiou and hale, nd not by merit and worth. If you ouid purify statesmanship, you must lovale it. Men of intellect, alive with ubition to lift up u falliug State, are ore apt to be moral, patriotic aud hou- ,t, than hypocritical imbeciles,who, dead the capucity of this liigher ambition, 3 alive only to trade and barter in lood, religion and prejudice, in order to pafi's, perquisites uud salaries ! Iu order to elevate our statesmanship, things, in my opinion, are indispen- e. Iu the first plaoe, our people must umlcm the itisauo hubit of placing men high civil positions simply because of lilitury talents or success. Lee wus right, is contrary to tho very genius aud ety of republican institutions to place lir civil administration iu the keeping men of military aptitude and training, i fighting is no evidence of able .nviuship. It is usually cvideuce of iv contrary. Otherwise (Japt. Jack ,i ■ ; -mmost statesman of this age, iusteid of being hanged ought to been nmdo President or Senator for If this hubit shall not cease we shall t have a civil state ring this generation. In Congress, too, have gouerals, and colonels, and cap- .18, uud lieutonunts, sufficient to muke small army, aud sca coly staUsmou gh to form a good committoo. jl will not allude uukiudly to General •aut. However much wrong he may i done otherwise, wo, iu Georgia, o*o a debt of wbi-U 1 have personal vledgu, aud I shall never speak of uukiudly. Hut 1 nm speaking of a •at principle, aud if General Grant had loptod aud aotod upon tho grand truth .ered by Loe, he would have lived ipor in the affections of his people, and her in the esteem of mankind, than all battles he has won sud all the Presi- intiul terms he c.iu receive, c m over ure for his name. Tho second thing indispensab e to the |evatioa of our statesmanship is tho re- otion of Congressional salaries. Upon iuciples, tho legislators of a country, bo huve iu their bonds tho purse of the ople, ought not to have the power to lp themselves. I believe Franklin was jht, when he desired by constitutional •ovision, to prohibit compensation to leuibors of Congress. I am very sure propositions of others in tho conven- i, to fix the amount of tho compeusa- m in the Constitution, so that themew- •rs could not increase their own pay, full of wisdom. Madison uttered a th’when he said it was an indecent ,g for members to fix their own com- satiou. iThen again, high congressional salaries wrong and hurtful in policy. They lite the merely mercenary with desires secure the seats. This begets acramb- ig and trading in ovory election. Men high abilities *wiil not bo parties to h contests. Thus, mercenary mon get itrol of tho Congress, and as they are jiefly movod by a passion that is insati- if the salary wero a hundred thou- l doll'll a, they would use tho office to luble tho sum. This wili finally reduce statesmanship to one groveling stand- : use money to gut office and use office get money. With fow exceptions Con- ass is now but a sad congregation of ne- oes, knaves and imbeciles, and no peo- b over wou, or preserved, or recovorod her liberty or right under such civil iders. You cannot scatter a flock of •rrion birds by railing at them, but if u burn up tho stinking oarcass that at- icls them they will scatter themselves, wo shall never get rid of these crea tes from Congress by portraying their .arador-s, They cannot see the mischief >y ure doing, and if they could, they iVe not manhood enough to bo made hamod. Lilt abolish the high salaries >t tempt and foed them, and they will vo the places that furnish to them no ler allurements. If high salaries con- ne, the greatest ugo of American states- mship is in tho past. Wo shall never •vo unother Clay, or Webster, or Cal- in the national councils. These ten served willingly on a sulary of J teen hundred dollars and less. Tho | s and Chandlers, with their negro i rpet-bag allies—all but tho spawn ’ mad revolution—need seven thou- j ud five hundred dollars to support their j ignity! It is sid to see a republic tly- g, as other ropi^lics have died, arul the j ople still unabl^o see tho evils which j >rk death until life is extinct, lint one comfort tJfc Southern people d their children inust over have. | bother constitutional government sha 1 mtinue or fail; whether the States sha 1 or bo obliterated ; whether liberty j all be recovered or die the death that lows no waking, too nhall In’ vindicated ! the union of the States, uuder cotBt:- •tional government, aud securing tl e •lessings of liberty, tie recovered and Brpatuafed, tho work c«u only bo dot o y returning to tho great prino pis f, r hioh we struggled.
