We Calhoun's address : -The letter asking me to i at this meeting informed me 'was expected to apeak “On Political Issues or th* Day." I propose to do from a non partisan point, and, taking a survey of exist- partiea and their tendencies, point what, in my opinion, are the political saities of the day, particularly in the " i. To do so to advantage, it is noc- j to understand the meaning of the Politios; to look at the peat of ex. | parties, and than ascertaining the 1 issues and national necessities to i a, welt as I am able the best ! of obtaining the results desired, pounce. Polities, in its widwt cooptation, is the 'enoe or art of government, but in its j sense it. mnns th, course pur- j a party in pow.r or the doctrines voeated by the opposition. In all gov- i where the people am represent- by delegates, there are atleuttwopar- hieh differ in their views as to na- neoemilies, and Moh claims and tee that its measure, am absolute- ntlal to the protection of the ettl- “ i enforcement of th, law, the inoe of national honor and integ- th, economical expenditure of lio funds. In « vapublio, where Ueian is apt to teeom, a selfish i and wher, liberty is often the :r of lioense, politic, may mean ider of offioe, and patriotism, i man, disgusting by th, platt- ! an army of stump speakers, and prerantations of a one-sided parti- , beoomes a by.word and a re hen it should mean the religion Do not understand mess gbt against parties, for I con n absolutely neoeasary to the ex- ! a free government. I only ob- i our tendency to boom, partlsansi henoe prajudioad, long after the is. that won obr allegiance have passed I also object to that nncharitable i in cur politios that blinds us to ad there may be in the creed of our neuts, and which leads as to doubt motives, and abuse th, oteraoters of men who may vote again! n. I k, then, in order to understand the Ms of the day, that it would be well to fco^i, the fact that the majuity of the Mtera in our land are honest In their be- rljaf, and, no metur what their errors may be, not to attribute Item to bad mo- - ttvae. So extensive is our country, and S, varied am th, intereate of our individ- aal States, that I eometimea despair for the future of th, Bepublio, particularly sWItan I se, the overwhelming tendency of parties to teoome notional, and the Harrow views of our statesmen whose fteion is too often limited by the bounds. ■ of their own States. thx run or pabtixs. I Free as we claim to b,, I question if ' am am any people in the world who are ore the slave, to ao-oalled “party feal* ' than we. The man who ohanges his tios is looked upon as a renegade and i tarn coat, dead to honor and inoapabl, (honesty. Bo strong is this feeling that a often hear men boast after this form, *‘I have always bran a Whig, my father eras a Whig, my grandfather was a Whig, and I am going to be a Whig m long as I llv*> ,nd f wilfteaoh my ion to be." You can substitute the word “Eepublioan” or “Deiuoorat" for “Whig," and you will find men glorying in their political faith. Such men are not thinkers j they am the blind slaves of a name, and the only possible reason they oould urge for their unthinking allegianoe is that “party principles never change.” But this we kiiow to be a great mistake. I can un derstand and honor the tenacity with which one clings to the settled oreed of his own church and the church of hie fath- era, but he who pledgee biuuelf in ad vance to a party, is a man in whose hands suffrage becomes dangerohs and liberty a mockery It is not necessary to su bash many years to see the ohanges and moon- f irnities of party platform*. The llepnb- ican party in 1880 advocated in their campaign the freedom of the territories. The Douglas and Breckinridge Dem ocrats differed as to the manner in whioh the question of slavery in th, territories should be settled, but undoubtedly they had the right side of that question, leav ing out the moral feature, of their plat, forms, and considering only the constitu tional right, of ih. Southern States. The platforms ohauged in the campaign of 18G4, because new and unanticipated is sues had s-fsen. Th, majority a# the slave States were in revolution, and the platform of tbs Republicans was the oon- tinuanoe of the war, and the guaranteeing of freedom to the manumitted negro. That of the Democracy was the cessation of hostilities and the preservation of the Union through compromise Mid concilia tion. In 18(18 the Republicans hadaa central planks the enfranchising of the negro, the proteotion of Amerioan manu factured products, and tte-paymaubof the national debt, principal ana interest in sterling. The Democrats opposed the immediate and unqualified enfranchise ment of the ex-slave, advocated, though not strongly, free trade, and, contrary to the oreed of their fathers, they were in favor of paper money and the multiply ing of national bank,. In 1872 there were platforms, but theywm artificial and oovered on the on, hand the desire and determination to retain power, and on the other a spirit of opposition aggra vated in the South by a sense of many wrongs, and unwise, if not malicious sec tional legislation; and Urged in the North by men who had grown weary of the war whioh Congress alone had kept alive long after the brave soldiers on either side had laid down their arms. TH* PRESENT. I oau find uo issues at present existing that oan be said to be doctrines of either parly. A glance at th* measures of na tional importance voted on by the last Congress will show that party lines are very faint, and that it would be difficult to discover them were it not for the pend ing CongreasionaMeettoni Outlie infla tion question the Dsmecrats and Repub licans of the East united against the Democrats and Republicans of the South and West. On questions of tariff the Dem ocrats of th. East will be found going against the presumed creed of their par ty, and the Republicans of the West are now becoming tb, strongest . dis ciples of free trade. Only on the Civil Rights bill were the party lines drawn; and this measure was sprang, not. be cause it was a necessity, but as a party tub to catch the negro whale, and keep in the traces the black men, who an fast getting to think for themselves. I oan see no peace to the nation, no era of good feeling so long oa the present parties ex ist. The name Republican, apart from any principle, must ever prove a' strong battle-cry to its adherents, fer though it olaims to be “the party of grand moral ideas," its true strength lies in its past successes snd the immense power giren it by over two hnndred thousand county, State snd national offices. R a hums to own the negro votes by the right of crea tion, and poiuting to its anooessss, it calls for continued allegianoe in order to make continued adranoe. The majority of men do not reason; they take their one from their leaders, and are always fascinatecTby the political pyrotechnics let off from the pleas sod the stump,in or der to captivate them with the past and make thorn -auguiue of the future. Re publican stump speakers would hayq a dull subject if they left out the war, and in Older to rouse their hearers they must play upon their feeiingB by telling them what the Republican party has done, and by classing the Democratic** the foes of the Uuion and the Inciters of the war, they open the graves of the dead and ghoul-like ring changes on the infamy of the revolt, and what they have dons for the Union. Forgetting the valor, and patriotism and the uneomptonf tog-effort of the Houtli to achieve what she thought was right, they show tlm graves of the Union deed, open up the wounds afresh, point to the widows and orphans, the debt and the destruction of thecommeree and ao keep alive for party purposes the base passions and fiendish spirit of re- vrage that ofiiy actual war could in any way excuse. A disinterested statesman hearing these partizana might reasonably ask, “If these people South Mttrwhatyon represent, they ar, oertainly very unde- victory may oome to you; nay, I will work for you aa well as pray; but I eall on yon now to remember my words, If the Re publican and Duiooxatio pabtixs sup port EACH A OANDIDATX IN 76, THX DkHO- CUAT8 WILL BE BEATEN WOBSX THAN IN 1872. Bo long as they exist the war ex ists. Bat a new party, well organised, with fresh, pore blood in its veins, and led by good men, will b, limply irresist ible. I advise yon then not to be the ultves of s name, but ratter to prepare joumelves by 1876 for s new party, oompoaed of th, bast alaiMnts North and Boutb, the men who own ahd work th, land, and under whose banners able, honest man will be nominated to sweep to immediate snoceas, with the hates of tb, nut buried, snd “progress, integrity, ana eoonomy” their watob wards. THE ISSUES. The World is progressive, sad the man or the party who woald win must stand in the advance, not be swerVed by the jura whieh ail progressive people most anooun- Opposifloo to accomplished facts Is retrogression. We most aooept existing condition,, sad tlua work to sunset their evils, not from individual like, or preju dices, bnt for tha good of the wh<Ae na tion. Tbe true politician only oontidara the conmon, good, and no man oan b, a statesmsb wmokinte tjbly Of his own sec tion or the fate of his own party. Hare, in the South, however, men era too muoh agitated by tte memory of th, unwise treatment they have been sabjeoted to, and suffering stnt so much from the pov erty and change antuiled by the war, that they oannot be" expected to take • broad view of pstiunsl politics, when their ooun- ties aad States are oootrolled by bad, in- efficient, and dishonest men. Had Liu- ooln lived, a manly :ud ganeroas course would have been pursued, and the Sooth have teas aided in reorganising her State govemmeptH, and in sending her proper regrsasptetivea to Oongreu, bnt u it was recraaMction beoame a series of cruel outragM, and pardons, that should never have been necessary, a oontinned source of humiliation. Northern adventurers swarmed to the South, and tbeir “loyalty" was considered an onset to their ignoranoe and infamy. Bnt bad as these men were, they were small in numbers and inflnenoe, compared with that class of men who, for tbe sake of offioe, helped to fasten tb, chain; on the limb, of their Southern brothers. To say the Detnoorat, of the Booth have noted wisely ind well sine# the war, would be a mistake; but this oan be Mid, when ever they have bad tbe control of a State in tbe Booth they have enforced the laws, ed the credit of U* State, and this they did because their individual interests, their knowledge of tbeir neceesitiM, and tbeip State pride and patriotism, Impelled them to a oonise opposite to that which the Administration party bad pnranad. Demooraoy South la very different from that North; here nine-tenth, of th, man of means and culture are Democrats, and the Republicans belong, m • role, to the poor, ignorant, and unreasoning class. In tbe Nortb tbe Boboola and ahnrebe,, the wealth and position are largely Republi can, while the poor, ignorant, and even lawless classes belong largely to tbe De mocracy; so that men me attracted to tbesepartiesatthe preMut day from loeal rather than national influMoes. sirable citizens, and von did a wrong, nay, you were guilty of the moqt terrible orime in biatory, in preventing their In dependence by war, whenypn oannot give them tbeir rights and yonr respect in peace. ” So long as tbe Ropfiblican party exists, ao lopg will the bad feelings arising from ignoranoe between the sec tions, as did the war, be kept alive, There ia much to admire in this party. It has prodneed able men, bnt it has accom plished its purpose, and every dag it lives destroys its repptaripn. Bnt there is one thing that keeps : thO Republican party alive, and that is tbe Deiuoeratio party— a party that for tbe last fourteen years, has been principally distinguished for the number of its poor prophets, and tbe te nacity with which it oliage Ao the skele ton of detql issues. It exist* simply as a party of opposition, find blindly kicks against the inevitable aa if it would undo what tha war has accomplished. As the Republican party baa become corrupt and arrogant by its long lease of office; -o the Democratic party has beoo'me fnth affd attenuated by itfl absence from the na tional breast, and its clamors for place have the wail of the hungry, wanting bread. They mast both go down, and the sooner the epitaphs of existing parties are written the sooner peace and prosperity will eomo to onr too long distracted land. It ia better to leok fools squarely in tbe face than to bug a deceit impelled by pur hopes. I believe that tbo Democrats, as a party, will meet with many BUR, End lo cal snccsses this year aad next; but if they Moept these skirmishes as evidences of a viotory in 1876, they will- be terribly dirappointed. Gen. Gordon, I see, speaks confidently of a Democratic triumph in the *Ht Presidential built, ia mistaken. I know, theiMMle of the Nortb well. I know theffithtbugb a dozen States, snd white they are sink «C tb. Republican party Mid anxious for a change, they will never permit tbe Democrat*, as a party, to bold the reins in Washington. Here, in Alabama, you are now straggling for tb, salvation of your State, and I pray that “But,” you may sqy, “Would yon have ! in Alabama start • new party at onoe, when there ia no ateao, of it, anooeas, and when the neMMity for , ohange ia eminent, if we wqald redeem onr poor, down-trodden,. ladMM State 7" I answer eh)pteReally “No I" for I see poor Alabama,-ante the State of honor, prosperity, an* lajr, prostituted by cor rupt men for Rietr own bass purposes.

Hskatapsle books me dlsgraoed by laws that aaT,n insult to deoeooy, good sense and jSjRtee, and which offer a pre mium to crime, of whioh her fast increas ing criminal classes are availing them, selves. There 1 ig no protection to private property siuoe the robber can be releMed on bta own bond, and that there is no orime ip the taking of a human life, doz. eus of unpunished murderers attest in your bwn midst. Your judges are, in many Cases, criminally weak or wickedly oriminal, and aouia of them are like a stern necessity in tbeir utter ignoranoe of law; These men, remember, are not car- pet-bffggcM, Bht'Alabama men, bora and raised here,, and elected to office more by the wicked neglect of duty on tbe part ofgood men than the votes of ignorant ATtrhadTffiefr It is not a change of party that is wanted, so muoh aa a ohaqge of men. Bad men belong to no party, know nothing of party principles, in a moral sense; see nothing in party bnt tbe spoils, like robbers who look at a bouse as i something to be entered by Btealtb, end plundered without noise, though prepared to light if neoeasary. THE NEOUO. One of the presumed issnee to-day, in tbe South, is the ill-defined bnt gradually widening one between tbe blaok and white raees. To widen this is the object of tbe opponents of the Sonth, and Soothern men heretofore have blindly aided in turning this most important element against them- selres. We hoar of “a war of raoes" as impending, and some men, claiming to be the friends of this State, even bint at a possible contest in which blood may be shed. Every whisper of this kind is thun der tor soar enemies. Tbe negro is a oit- '.*n, am) it R ,o*aible to mate him u val- ofie. Without his labor, to-day the uable South-would be a wilderness, and bad it not boon fdr his fidelity during tbe war, and bis love for bis master, tbe most fear ful Hcsuea of carnage would hare been in the rear of th. Southern army. I heard a gentleman, in making a speeoh soma time ainoe, say, ‘‘I-am in favor of educating all)" then, ourseoting himself, he added, “I mean.a# the Cauassisn race." Now, when we look at tbe past of the negro, in his own, tend as. a savage, and here as a slave, thare is but little to wonder at in his ignorance and immorality, while there teinuchte admire in his efforts to im prove aud rise. As he is a oitizsn, with a vote, an effort should be made to educate him, that be may use that vote intelligent ly,, but to keep him in ignoranoe is to breed criminals, and make ready tools for the use of suoh’ men as now control yonr State. Tbe interests of tbe men who own tbo- tend ss4 the men who work it are identical, and na effort should be left un tried to sboW tM black men ttet tew, or der, economy, and integrity in the affair, of your Blate are to bta advantage as well as yaws. I shall despair of peaoo and prosperity to white man mud blaok in the Boutb, when color becomM the badge of party, and those who thoughtlessly adro- cate it are but preparing this distracted land for lower depths of poverty and deg radation than have yet been sounded. I would, therefore, advise ttet you honest, ly and patriotically mate overturn* to th. blaok men, show them the oommon neces sity for a change in Alabama, and though you oannot hope for immenm accessions, particularly from the more ignomot, you will open a breech through whioh they will yet oome aa freemen to stand by you in the support of yonr common interests. CANDIDATES. Thera was a time in this country When the office sought the man, and the man filled the office as mi honor, not an • means for mahiug money; but ttet day seems past. Great aa is the necessity for a unity of aotiou, end an utter abnegation of self for the publio good, yet we find in this State that for every offioe there are, on an average,eight party candidates, eaoh working for himself. This oannot bo avoided, but depeud upon it, it will be a aouroe of weakness, particularly where men announce ‘ 'they are candidates wheth er regularly nominated or not.” OA at the eight men, seven must be dlMppolnt- ed, and they would be more than human if they worked ter the aficoeMful man aa bard aa they oould work for fhamaelva*. Muoh of your suae ess will depend upon your candidates, and you should enter on this struggle for tte Redemption of your State with leaden well and widely known, and under tbe tongue of good report, aud every man olaiming to love his State should work heart and soul for the suc cess of tbe regular candidate. I hear men aay, “Ob, we will sweep Al abama; w* have twenty thouund majori ty in favor of good Contervative man.” These boasts about majorities are danger ous, and are more apt to lead to defeat than the knowledge ttet you had twenty thou sand votes against you, whioh you must work to overeome. I believe myself ttet you oan win; but you will havo a hard fight with a toe whose strength, ragouroee, and ability you will err in underrating. He tea the prestige of present occupa tion, bespeaking former suooess, and only hard, brave, unselfish, and persistent work on the pert of every good oitlzen will ao- oompUsh tbe result so muoh to be desired. THE rUTUKE OF PASHTO. In the pending elections I oau sea no tests whereby to judge of the fnture of I jarties. There are to-day no party issues, or I oonaider the Civil Rights bill s pow er in the tends of the Repubtioans ouly white it exists in theory snd agitation. The condition of the pnblio mind will be- oome more and more ohaotio until tb, raring of 1876, and then from ttet ohsoe, like a new birth to the nation on her o*n- tonnlal anniversary, will evolve the princi ples for future guidsnoe. Heretofore, at leMt for the last half century, polities bra been a profession, and the 1 voters of tbe tend have become th, pawn, of their polit ical masters. Th'e primitive parity hM gone with the primitive sbnplieity, snd love of oonatry has degenerated Ihto love of of fioe. Indeed, North and Boutb, East and West, we have departed from the undent faith, snd while waiting for the day of tha tew, w, have given onrselves op to th, worship of th, gold,n aalf. WnaMMdte man now by tbeir wealth, uncaring for it, origin, sad, like snobs, wo bow to the Orceras of to-day, forgetting ttet yeator- dsy ha hang on tha ntmoat verge ef tha law. Onr individual characters need ohanging, snd wa should work for tb, right, not because there ia money in it, but beosuM it is right,'Mid we Should boldly denouno, lawlessness snd wrong, nnoaring for the standing of the individ ual or the party to whieh he belongs. The poiutesl Bassoon is despoiling the Holy City, and reveling above tbe grs*M of the prophets; but a orusade it forming silently, so silently tbst many wbo ore enrolling in tbo ranks do not dsre to breathe to themselves the final object of tbeir mission. They era gathering slang the sunny slopes of tbe Fsaifio, in the vineyards of California, amid the silver mountains of Nevada, and np in the gold en wheat fields washed hy the mighty Or egon. Silently, but with an earnestness that eon consider no defect, these men are gathering in mighty armies ia tbe great West. From where the Miaaiasi|>Mi steels from s Minnesota lake in the region of fieroe winters; to the State where tbe Father of Waters weds tbe blue waves of the Gulf nesth a tropics) sky, men sturdy sad earnest are forming in tharacks and training for the duties of this mighty cru sade. Their banners are rising under tbe shadow of tbe Hooky mountains, snd down tbe Allegbsuics cornea tbo whisper of their gslbering. The bustle of New. England mills oannot drown the Dotes of tbeir preparation, nor tbe shouts in the Bsbel of corameroa render vague the low, strong voioe. By the Susquehanna they sra rallying, snd along the olsssio Poto mac, sod tbe biatono James, the modern crusaders are inspired for the pending struggle. South Carolina looks tear-dim- med from her ssbes, snd with bauds otaspod sod fsoe turned to Heaven, breetb- leuly she watobes the sign in tbe sky. Georgia retebes her band to Alabama—a strong matron supporting u fallen ohild, and she whispers “courage, my daughter, ooursge; they are ooming! Thank the God A our fathers, they are ooming 1 Up, and bo brave 1 Throw off tbe rags and tbe oheina 7 Bare tbo sword of juatioe, snd be ready to strike, for the boar of the nation’s triumph ia dawuiag! Be patient, be strong, sod be vigilant.” Who are these crusaders, you ask; snd what nre the qualifications for membership ? To stand trader tbeir flag, they do not ask your politics in tbs pest; they osra not tbe alter at wbiob you kneel, or the land in which you Ant saw light. Old and young, man snd women, Jew snd Gen tile, foreigner aud Amerioan; would tbst I oould add blaok and white, though that is coming, are alike eligible as soldiers iu this army. “Who are they?” They are the men who own the tend; the tura who, tiring of their slsrery to corrupt politl- oians, are determined, when tbe hoar for the oonfliot comas, to unite for the oom mon good, with the watch word, “Tho men who own the land must rale it." Their suaoess moons prosperity snd pesos; their failure, corruption and centraliza tion. When tbe Northern farmer makes oommon cause wilh tbe Southern planter, the differences of the past will be forgot ten in the necessities of the present and the success of tbe futnro.
