I think differently. Wa ought tn end the

wo could do no better. I Imvu tried the ex

Tlio changes of sentiment upon this question
In tlie) South have been curious. 1 Not many
yoart since, It was by no meant onnsnnl for tlie
press and public inco, at well at for the people
generally, in me souili, to concede that Slavery
wat nn pvil, and regret that it should over have
existed i expressing, however no disposition or
desiro lo be rid of it, ; Yet, a few yeara more
mo uouianu lor cuiton having advanced, and
the .agitation of the Slavery question having
increased in virulouce finds ns defending Sla
very as a divine institution. DcBow'i Kcview
and other Southern paper and periodiealt,
with Senator Hummoud, if South Carolina,
wore prominent in this defunso. Their object
was to educate the nublio mind tn this lieli,.r
Such a course hae been vital tn tho Institution

took one negro. Such was puhfio sentiment
South, at the commencement of this most un
fortunate nud bloody ttruggle. But revolutions
shako up men's thoughts, and put them in dif
ferent chntiuela. I have rooeutly talked Willi
Southern slavo-holdcrt from every Slate. They
are tired of negro slavery, aud 1 believe they
could make more clear money, and live more
peaceably, without than with tt. At for the
nou-sluvehnldorof thu South, I honestly thnogbt
tho struggle was for him more than for his
wealthy neighbor that tn tree tlio uegro would
reduce to comparative slavery tho poor white
mail, 'i I now reirrct, that instead of b war to
sustain slavery, it bad not been a struggle at the
tiullnt-box to colonize It. '1 hit will clearly Do
the next struggle.
1 am or the opinion that, wueiner it it a ot
vino luslitntien or not, negro slavery hat 'ac
complished its mission here, A great mission
it had.. A new and fertile country had been
discovered, uud must bu made useful. The
necessities nf mankind pressed lor ill speedy do
Tolopinent. 1 Negro slavery was the instrument
to eil'ect this. It alone could open up the fer
tile aud luiasmatiu regions uf )hu South, solv
ing tho problem of their utility, which no the
orist could have reached. It was the magician
which suddenly revolutionized Itie commerce of
the world by the solution of this problem. It
peopled and made opulent (he barren hills uf
New-England, nud threw its powerful inllnenoo
across tho great Northwest. Standing as a
wull between tho two sections, It ranght nnd
rolled northward the wealth and population of
tho old world ; uud held lu their place the
restless adventurers of New England, or turn
ed them along tho gnat prairies and valleys of
tlio west, j tint now Kiiginnn reneneu us cli
max, and tho Northwest was overgrown of itt
ago, whilu tho houlh, with itt uogro laborers,
was sparsely settled, and cmupuiatively poor.
Thus slavery hnd done its utmost for New Eng
land and tho Northwest, and was a weight up
on the South. If, at this point, its disappear
ance could have clearly couiineuocd, what un
told suffciiui; aud sorrow might havo been
avoided 1
Us existence had become Incompntiblo with
the I'Xisteunu of the Government. For, while
it hud stood as a wall, damning np thu Ourrenl
and hohliiiL' back tho people uud laborers of
ii... v.,rth U hnd. bv tiius precluding free iu
terciuirse between thu sections, produced I
marked change iu their manners, customs nud
sentiments. And thu two sections were grow
nig more divergent every day. I Ins wall or
Ihe Government one must give way. The
shock vaiuu which was to settle the question.
thought the Government was divided, aud
negro slavery established forever. 1 erred.
Tho Government wns stronger than slavery.
As I nave said, the mission ol the latter Is ac
complished. And, at his happiness mast al
ways bo subordinate to that ol the while muu,
he must, ero long, depart ou tue footprint, of
the lied man, w hosu mission licnig accomplish,
ed is fust fading from our midst.
While I think tho mission of the negro is
accomplished Intro, I am clearly uf the opinion
that the timo will come wbeu uitiliiutiou and
learning shall light up tho dark abodes of the
four hundred million people iu India, and when
their wauls and necessities will put the patient
and hardy negro to toiling and opening up tho
great valley of the ferlilu but niiasinntio Ama
zon. Hut such speculations ate out uf pluco
here.
Let us, fellow-citizens, endeavor to he cnlin.
Let us look these new idea., and our novel po
sition, squarely ill tho faco. We fought for ne
gro slavery. Wo havo lost. Wo may have to
do without it. The inconvenience will In
great for a while. Tho loss heavy. This,
however, is already well nigh accomplished.
Yet, behind this durk clond is u silver lining,
f not for us, at least for our children. In the
place of there boudsiuen wi'l come nn influx uf
people from all parts of thu world, bringing
Willi them their wealth, arts and Improvements,
and lending Iheir talents nud sinews tn Increase
our aggregate wealth. Thrift and trade, aud
a common destiny, will bind us together. Ma
chinery in tho hills of Arkansas will rever
berate to tho music of machinery in New Eng
land, uud the whirr of Georgia spindle, will
meet responsive echo upon the sloiet of I hi
lar off Pacific. Prole. live (anils, if needed,
will stretch iu their inlluences from the Lthiet
to the Gulf, aud from ocean tn menu, bearing
alike, at lost, equally upon Arknusian nnd Ver
moiiUir. aud upon Georgian aud I'tlifomUn.
Difference of section and local sentiment will
wear away and be forgolton, aud Ihe m it gen
eration be mora homogenous and united than
any since ihe dnrs of the ltevolution. And
the descendants of these bloody timet will read,
with a much pride nud littlu jealosy of these
battles of their fathers, as Ihe English and
Scotch descendant of tho heroes of Phalden
field, read of their ancestral oehievemen's In
the clotting lines uf Scott, or, as tho descen
dants of highland and lowland duels, allusions
wi their father.' coiillicu in tho simplu ttraiut
of tho luetic llnriis.
I-a-t ut live in hope, my grlef-tlricken broth

sas will rise from tlie ashes uf her desolation lo
start on a path of higher destiny than with ne
gro slavery she ever could have reached : while

They point to the injiiriet tuitoiued heretofore ,
by Union men, in othor portion, of the States '

to be a hero, or to inour rlikt of martyrdom, f

murderous hands many remained nnawed and '
fell like tuurtvn. Yon have heard these oen
described. You know how In the twilight the

It i tad to think how many tuoh Instance, have '
occurred. The noble courage theie men hare ','
