quenccs which would inevitably ensue. One of these has been occasionally alluded In In
the progress of these remarks. It is the struggle which would instantaneously arise be twecn the two races in most of Southern and Southwestern Slates. And what a dreadful struggle would it not bet Embittered by all the recollections of the past, by the oncon querable prejudices which would prevail between the two races, and stimulated by all the
uupes nna tears 01 the luture, it would be a contest in which the extermination f th
blacks, or their ascendancy over the whiles, would be lhe sole alternative. Prior to thc conclusion, or during the progress of such a
contest, vast numbers, probably, of the black
rate would migrate into the free states; and what edict would such n migration have upon the laboring classes of those states? Now the distribution of labor in lhe United States is geographical; thc free laborers occupying one side of the line, nnd the slave loborcra the other; each class pursuing its own ovocalions almost altogether unmixed with the other. But on the supposition of immediate abolition, the black class, migrating into the free states; would enter into competition with tlie white class, diminishing thc wages of their labor, and augmenting lhe hardships of their condition. This is not all. The abolitionists very strcanuoiisly oppose all separation of the two racts. 1 confess lo you, sir, that I have seen with regret, grief, and astonishment, their resolute opposition to lhe project of colonization. No scheme was ever presented to the acceptance of man, which whether it be entirely practicable or not, ia characterized by more unmixed humanity and benevolence than that
of trasporliug, with their own consent, the free
people or color in the United States to the land of their ancestors. It has the powerful recommendation that whatever it does is eood.
and if effect nothing, it inflicts no one evil or mischief upon any portion of our society. There is no necessary hostility between the objects of colonization and abolition. Colon
izalion deals only with the free man of color and that with his own free, voluntary consent.
t has nothing to do with slavery. It disturbs
no man's property, seeks to impair no power
in the slave slates, nor to attribute any to the General Government. All its action and all
its ways and means are voluntary, depending
pon the blessing ot providence, which hither 9 has graciously smiled upon it. And yet.
benificentnnd harmless as colonization is, no portion of the people of the United States de
nounces it with so much persevering zeal and such unmixed bitterness as do the abolition
ists.

iect meir ultimate cna. j ncy began their operations by professing to employ only per
suasive means in appealing to the humanity,
cniigntcning ine understandings, or the slave-
holding portion 01 the Union. If there were
some kindness in this avowed motive, it must be acknowledged that there was rather a pre
sumptuous display also of an assumed superiority in intelligence and knowledge. For some time they continued to make their appenls to
our duly and out interest ; but Impatient with
the slow influence or their logic upon our stupid minds, they recently resolved to change
their system of action. For the agency of
their powers of persuasion, they now propose to substitute the powers of the ballot box; and he must be blind to what is passing before us, who does not perceive that the inevitable tendency of their proceedings is, if these should be found insufficient, to ivoke the more potent powers of the bayonet.
Mr. President, it is at this alarming stage of 1 ii 1 1 . I
me ii-.iu(,s ui uie uitra aoouiionists mat I would seriously invite every considerate man in the country solemnly to pause, and deliberately to reflect, not merely on our existing posture, but upon that dreadful precipice
down which they would hurry us. It is be
cause these ultra-abolitionists have ceased to
employ the instruments of reason and persua
sion, have made their cause political, and
htve appealed to the ballot box, that I am induced, upon this occasion, to address you.
And row, Mr. rresident, if it were possible
to overcome the insurmountable obstacles
which lie in the way of immediate abolition,
letui briefly contemplate some of the cense-
They put themselves in direct opposition
to any separation whatever between the two
races. 1 hey would keep them forever pent up together within the same limits, perpetuating their animosities, and constantly endangering the peace of thc community. They
proclaim, indeed, that color is nothing; that the organic and characteristic differences be
tween the two races ought to be entirely over
looked and disregarded. And, elevating themselves to a fublime, but impracticable philosophy, they would leach us to eradicate all the repugnance of our nature, and to take to our bosoms and our boards the black man as we do the white, on the same footing of equal social condition. Do they not per
ccive that in thus confounding all the distinc
tions winch lod himself has made, I hey arraign the goodness of Providence itself! It has been His divine pleasure to make the black man blaik and lhe while man white,
and to distinguish thrm by other icpuleivc constitutional differences. It is not necessary
for me to maintain, nor shall I endeavor to prove, that it was any part -of His divine intention that lhe one race should be held in
perpetual bondage by the other; but this I will say, that those whom He has created dif
ferent, and has declared, by their physical structure nnd color, aught to be kept asunder, should not be brought together by any pro
cess whatever of unnatural amalgamation.
out u the danger of a civil contest which I have supposed could be avoided, separation or amalgamation is the only alternative, if it were possible to effectuate the project of abolition. The abolitionists oppose all colonization, and it irresistibly follows, whatever they may protest or declare, that they are in favor of amalgamation. And who are to bring
about this amalgamation T 1 have heard of none of these ultra abolitionists furnishing in their own families or persons examples of intermarriage. Who is to begin it! Is it their purpose not only to crente a pinching competition between black labor and white labor, but do they intend rIso to contaminate the in
dustrious and laborious classes of society at
thc North by a revolting admixture of the
black element!
It is frequently asked, What is rto become
of the African race among ust Are they
forever to remain in bondage t That question was asked more than half a century ago. It has been answered by fifty years of prosferity but little chequered from this cause, t will be repeated fifty or a hundred years
hence. The true answer is, that the same Providence who has hitherto guided and gov erned us, and averted all serious evils from
the existing relation between ine two races,
will guide and govern our posterity, duiocient for the day is the evil thereof. We have
hitherto, with that blessing, taken care of ourselves. Posterity will find the means of its own preservation and prosperity. It it only
