Sir, I admit that I covet the approbation of the good, the wise ami the relecting. and would not willingly subject my-elf to tlirir censure or to reasonable suspicion to my motives of action; though I am utterly indifferent to those calumni ous, groundless and vindictive attacks to which everv man in public lite, even in less excited ' .. , . 1 1 . .!.. !. . I'tnes. is snbieeteO bv iernal rualcvo ence or i politic il hostility. Hut though I desire such ap ; probation, I have uever mole either opinion or I popularity my stand trd of action, but my own! tense ol tight and duty; nd I owe a respect to rny sincere convictions of public dutt which I j will nuvcr sacrifice. Many of you are aware that before civil war commenced I expressed fully my views as to the course of action which I thought the welfare and prosperity of the whole country required after the secession of seven States. Thse views differed from the course pursue sub-e.iuently by the Administration, aud its course was approved by a majoiity of Congress, j an. I i'ri.l'i! Ittr tti rto!.ltf :iL Lir",. it ft.r thir ' passions had become excited by actual war, I told vou then that I did not consider seces sion a constitutional or re-.erved nglit ot the j öit'es, um au nci 01 rcio.uiion; ouv a revolution by organized communities not rebellion in the modei n sense of tue woid, but only in its old Kornau sense the revolt of a. people. I told you, also, that in my judjm-.-nt, conciliation, and the removal ol real or even apprehended grievances or dangers, and not coercion by arms, was, in fuch a crisis, the true policy of the statesman; and that the framers of the Constitution had wisely left such a state of affairs without any provision as one of those "mortal feuds" which, in the language of Hamilton, "when they happen, commonly amount, to revolutions and dismemberments of empire." I admitted that eecesin was a breach of the compact' by which the Federal Government was established, and that it reste! with the Unitcl States to determine whether they would ami could, by wur, compel the seceding States to repair the breach, or whether the act by w hich they severcl their political relations with us should be assentci to, am a peaceful separation permitted, inthe hope that past memories arid the ties of blood and marriage, with continue' commercial intercourse might in a lew years restoie those seven S;ates to the Union; similar influences having at the origin of the Government, induced Xorth Carolina aud Khode I.slanl, after a year's deliy, to become members of the Union, though the former hid in the first instance re jeered the Constitution, and the latter h id refused to be represented in the Convention I may be pardoned hete for quoting a shoit extract from a speech I m oie on the "condition of the country," in March, lbl, as illustrative of my opinious before the sword had been drawn: "You may attempt by war to keep the Stites united to restore the Union but the attempt will be futile Conciliation and concession nnv reunite us; war never ! Tho power may bv ex I croised for the purpose of punishment aud ven-j gemce. It mav be exercised if vou propose to j cor.q ier the seceding States, and reduce the ni tion into a coiiso'idateti nation ; but if your m tenti n be to maintain the Government which your ancestors founded that is, a common Government over separate, independent communi ties war c m never elTe;t such an intention." I prelerred then peaceful separation to livil war as the lesser ei il. but the Administration ani the dominant party decided t resort to an enforcement of the laws by the coercion of arm, as against it iiisurrectiui Civil war has since rasied. nl its events and consequences have streng henel my conviction tint the prosperity of niv country aud the happiness and moraisof the people cannot be promoted by its continuance I o these views an overwlielmu.g majority 01 Con - gress i op;Msel, and, so far a the e'cctiotn ol the pist year cm lie accepted as evidence of nublie sentiment, that majority is sistaii.el by the people. It is true that new questions have.iriseu in the progress of war as to its mode of conduct and bject. and have produced conflict 01 opsin ui among the people Hut on the question of re ice even by temporary sep iration if es-e;ri il the Democratic p irty wu'h which I have been connected is divided, aud manv of its leading and most influential adherents indulge in the visionary idea that a common government, based on "the consent of the gov-
erned," over separate political communities, with j Congress and in the Executive Chamber. The diversified habits, manners, customs and tnslitu- future of th s country, nay, the welfare of all 1 1tions, can be restored and maintained by the , fxiring m ink n I, depends upon the character of sword, without the abandonment of a Federal the adjustment, and in view of such a momentous and its conversion into an imperial and ceutial task, we doubt if any but a silariel retiiner or ized government S thought not the Pi esiden j lome hopeful mendicant, will pretend for an inol tlie United :St ate. r the Secretary of St ie on , slant that such responsibilities would be properly the lO.h of April. 1?61, before war hid begun, j lodged it left in the hm.lsof Lincoln.

I close thee remarks with the Iancuie in which a historian of the Constitution o eloquently jx)rtrays tle universtl pentiment of the American people (a!t.'l how changed now) at the time of it adoption, and the great object they intended to accomplish in thus cementing more firmly a Feder il Union: "Ther beheld that republican and constitutional liberty which with all that il comprehends and all it betows was not onlv altogether lovely i in the;r eves, but without which liiere could be their ein 'lislie I principles, their hopes, their life as a peip!c. were all botin 1 up in it; and they knew ill it if they s-.ifiVred it to be lost there would remain fur them nothing; but a heritage of shame and ages of confusion, strife and sorrow." (Lincoln it iil One I erni." the cry of "Lincoln and one term" is circulating , through the ranks of the Kepublicans. W tikes "5r'int of the 1 imes, the organ ot the r 0 iX Sutlers, and the Sweat Hoard, and the Camp followers, is also the mouthpiece of a powerful section of the Abolition party. It calls for a combination against Lincoln's reelection of which it say-: The cuuntrv ii all right in tone. It has been willing to laugh at Mr. Lincoln's jokes, for a season; but now that the true strain of our insti tutions is approaching, it lequires courage and decorum in the chair ol State. For our part, we believe the people will. in this matter, meet with thn relief they wish. We can conceive how a popular tumult m iy, in its first emotions, upheaves some jocose clodpole to the spex, but we cannot conceive how, in the face of .ping guillotines :i rocking empire, Jack Jiutisbv COUh v could be elected to preside over a period like that of the old French Kevo'utiou lor a second term! Reviewing the history of the Administration of Lincoln and his tergiversations, it says: All this has been brought about in the conscience of a naturally wll intentioned man, by the corrupting temptation of a double teim, and we may judge somewhat further of the dreadful rigor of that demoralizing influence by the fact that the patronage of the Government is not only being squandered at this moment to debauch the legislatures into jjn illicit nomination of Mr. Lincoln, but he lias actually been engaged of late in granting pardons to military rebels, who are above the high-water mark of the amnesty proclamation, in order that they may come within our lines) and electioneer to carry out his personal purposes. As for the amnesty proclamation itself, applied aa it is to rush Louisiana, Arkansas and Ten-ne-see back iuto the Union, in time for the June convention, it looks wonderfully like a dodge to recruit votes for Uncle Abraham in th.it body. He must be aware, from the specimen of bonier State patriots now in Congress, that these sudden proseiytes will become the uitural ilefeinlers of disloyal neighbors, and that when the reconstituted" Stiteis back, and can again cist all its vote, they may relapse with the malcontents into the slouch of the rebellious "institutiMi," like Iievctdy Johnson, Garrett Davis, and their representative train. To our mind, therefore, this rapid reconstruction of the seceded Staies is pre mature They should be held in abeyance until the National Constitution is amended against slavery, and once in under that guirantee there can t no secession, recantation or release. This view shotihi have struck the mind of a mm tall enough to be a President, nnI perhaps it did; but if if did, what are we lo think of Mr. Lincoln's Crucifies in being willing to risk an untimely move ent, for the mere sake of the hastily constructed votes it w.iuM contribute to his person il cause in June. These things are, in themselves, a lesson against the project of a docile tetm, and should serve as a particular warning against Mr Lincoln. Should he sue ceed, he will at the expiration of that second term be sliil eligible ti another term; and we can reaiiily conceive from the way in which he has Use I his pitronage already, that he may, if hebe allowed to carry lis conservative machine "over the centre' into easy running, repeat him-elf too often for the matter to he regarded us a joke There is no satetv for republi jean liberty, umlcr our vastly incteisel armies j anl immensely disunticd national dent, but lo j restrict our powerful Pre-ident herealter'to a j single term; and the 1 roper wav to dictate that amendment to the CoustjMtion is to rebuke Mr. j Lincoln's aspirations for a te flection j Hut in addition to ihe political reasons against j a double term, and es;eiaiiy at this time, Mr Lincoln is the most uiifit mm among all the candidates of the loyal side, for the trtmeudous rsi.-ks and responsibilities of the next lour years. The true war with the rebellion is yet to come.

Strength of the flebelllon. The W apf.ii.gton authors of the teieirraphi dispatches are tili igorou-'y engaged, not altogether without Kuccc. in the attempt to deceive the Northern peo;!e s to the strength and probable endurance of tb rebellion. A cotemporary has the following on this nutter: The public must be thoroughly wearied we were about to say thoroughly disgusted w ith the fabrication that frequently reach us now, as in deed for many weeks past, concerning the "wide di saffection in the rebel rank;" the "larse numbers of their troops awaiting a proper opportunity to avail themselves of the President's proclaim ti.n;" the "Georgia regiment that wanted to come it'to our lines" yesterday; the '-two Mis ispippi regiments tint made an edort to come over" today; the ovirinres that the rebel leider at liHhmond are desirous ol miking f t ptace; that verge of atarvation which the mass ol the Sou'hern people areapproaching, etc., etc. The channel through which these romances seem roost freely to come is Washington City, and what is called Washington correspondence. It is there that the intelligent contraband first catches the ear of the credulous tell lie grapher, and the credulous correspondents of the administration journals. It is there that the "gentlern:! jan from Richmond" tuuchsales first to tiuburthen him-elf. It is there that the veracious refugee loves to go to tell his wondrous tales cf life in the land of cotton. Put the whole business would seem to be so overdone now, by competition, that we cannot but man el at the reiv'tcncy with which it is followed, when it has manifestly ceased t have a claim upon public consideration. Weapprehenl no body believe now tha we shall see that Georgia or those Mississippi regiments within our lines, even if the story were reiterated by every rhsh of the telegraph. Nobxly believes that lare
ii timbers of den. Lee a army are "awaiting an opportunity to avail themselves of the President's proclarn ition " Nobody believe the "utter ex Inustation" theory. How, in deed, can one have faith iu laucli stite'ments. in the lace of the hard facts stating them in the face? Wliat Ilecome of the NeroJ The Chicago Po;-f, a war paper, commenting upon the probable condition of negroes who escape from slavery, remarks: These facts bring us to the consideration of another interesting inquiry, what becomes of the negroes tint have escaped from slavery? We confess that the information that is furnishe! upon that point is positively startling. A letter in the New Yoik World gives us the following picture of the result among those who have been put to work on the government plantations in Louisiana: "1 do not know that the leased plant itious have been subjected to any express examination, to asceitaiu how they have been conductetl. espe cially w ith reference to the lie Ith and w ell-being of the negroes; but such an examination was made of a portion of those woiked as government plantations, and the report showe a most terrible mortality, quäl to that of those awful middle passages of the slave ships, from our infant recollection of w hose rehearsal we recoil with o much horror. "Some of these have been made known before not here, indeed, but northward On the Old Hickory plantation were placed, on June 3, four hundred and thirteen negroe, with but two days' provisions, and on the 11th of September twi hundred and fourteen of these had died. On White Castle wee placed three hundred, and on the IGth of September but forty-two were found Illing Oti the Andier's place, out of four hundred but one hundred and seventy-eight were left; and the like propottionate mortality was found on the Yintress, Griot, Magnolia. Richland and Miles Taylor plantations. At this time the sm.tli-pox is prevailing at the Honoral plantation. The overseer ln:s lied of it, and at last' acounts there was neither physician or other j white person on the place No wonder that General R inks has determined that on 1 he 1st of February all abandoned plantations shall be leased out. In the military line, the mortality is even more fearful. The negroes that have been enrolled in the service, we mean the former slaves, do not live. To say that- the mortality is greit is t only tell half the truth. Each camp 1 a hospital, and unless kept up by constant recruiting, becomes in a short timea grave-yard. We forbear giving any of the figures that have been from time to time furnished; sufficient to siv that one year of military service is the average term of life of those negroes. Nor is the mortality coufineal to the men. The women are equally unfortunate. Thrown into contact with large bodies of troops; the men of their own color taken off, they soon fall into the vice and calamities which seem tobe inevitable where women follow armies. They soon perish, hecaue there is none to take care of and provide for them It is safe to estimate that seventy-five per cent, of the slaves who come within the military lines, die within eighteen months thereafter. It is a painful and sorrowful thought, that to the cruelties and miseries of tlie war, its countless . , .. , .. . horrors am J calamities to the white race, is to be ., , . I, , 1 . , adJed t.ie sudden but complete extirpation and ex.tnciion 01 rne Airican race in mi country . The boon of "Freedom" leads the nciro to the j agrave. In extinguishing slavery the slave perishes. From tbe Columbia South Carolinian, Jan '27. I'reoideiit Lincoln . Southern I'ortrnit of IIIui.

A Lot al Fight W. S. T. Morton and Jacob P. Julian, two prominent and loyal citizens of Centieville had a street fight, on Wedne day of last week. It is stated that after some words of a beligerent character had passed between litem, Morton istruck Julian with a flung shot, brassknuckles, or something of the kind. Morton "drew the first blood," bat Julnm downed him, rollel him over in the cutter and was "pegging away" at him, when Morton cnel for qmrters.

It is well for us to consider occasionally what we are paying for a chance to hive Mr. Llm'olx's scheme of reconstruction carried into effect. Let us, therefore, recall whit Wendell Fjiillip? said fourteen months ago: I w ill not speak of the cost of this war, though you know tint we shall never get out of il without a lebt of at least S.-'.notl.OfltJ.dfH). I will hot remind you that debt is the fatal disease of republics to undermine government and corrupt the people. The great debt of Hnglmd has kept her back in all piogress at letst a hundred years, j Neither will I rcmunJ you that, when we go out of this war, we to out with an immense disbanded armv, an immense military snirit embodied in two third of a million of sohlie:., the fruitful,! the inevitable source of fresh debts and new t wars. I pass by all these, and Iving within I those causes are things enough to make the most ! sanguine friends of free institutions tremble fori our future. ' But let me reniiml vou of another tendency of! the time. Vou know, for instance, that the writ of habeas corpus, by which Government is bound to render a teason to the Judiciary before it lavs its hands upon a citizen, has been called the hihwater tn itk of English liberty. The present Na poleon, in his realise on the English C-onstitu- i tion, calls it the germ of English institutions, i T . 1 . . . 1. . . .. r .: 1: 1. .1. : . ! ia-uer says uiai 111.11 , wun ire; int'ciiug oae mis, anl a free press, are the three elements which distinguish liberty from despotism, and all that Saxon blood has gained in the battles and toils of j two hundred years are these three things. Now, today, everyone of thes hibeas corpus, the j right of f;ce meeting, and free pi ess is annihi Iatel in every square mile of the Republic. We live to day, every one of u, under martial law or mob law. The Secretary f State puts into his Rastile, w ith a warrant ns irresponsible as that ol Louis, any man whom he pleases, and iou know that neither press nor lips may venture to arraign the Government without living silence!. We are tending with rapid strhJes you say, inevitable: I don't deny it, necessarily; I don't question it we are tending to that strong government wh:ch frightened Jefferson; toward that unlimited debt, that endless army; we ixe already those alien and sedition laws which, in 179, wrecked the Federal party ami summonedthe Democratic into existence For the firxt time on the continent we hive passports, which even Louis .Bonaparte pronounces! useless and odious.
