Some of you will remember, that in my first campaign speech last fall, I said that the question of Slavery was incidental and subordinate to another, a deeper and more important question. — I said that the contest in which we were then about to engage, was one for political power ; and that the real question for us to decide, vras, whether the North, Avith its tAventy millions of peo- ple, inheritors by an illustrious lineage of the rights and blessings of freedom, should possess and administer... the Government, or whether the South, with its six millions, debased and brutalized by its contact with Slavery, should retain the power which it had possessed since the organization of the Government. That was the real question, as time has abundantly proved.
Thirty years ago, Southern politicians saw with an evil and j'ealous eye, the North advancing in population, in wealth, and in all the elements of moral and material progress, with a rapid- ity which would soon leave them in a liopeless minority, and they looked forward with rage and desperation to the time when they would be compelled to yield the control of the Govern- ment, and follow where they had been accustomed to lead ; and they determined, when that day should arrive, to throw off their allegiance, and fire the temple at whose shrines they could no longer officiate.
