Tallula, 111., Juuq 13th, 'd3. •Mn Emto1* :—In replying to pur friend Don Alpiae'a letter of May the 12th, I do not dcaign reflecting invidionaly on anj^p_ert of It ; neither was it so intended in my former note to him. 1 entertain no unfriendly feclinga ioI ward bim »r Mr. Dooglaa because we • politically difer. In article second, on "The President's Message and Slavery," our friend, in speaking or Mr. Lincoln i eaid : "It la certain, however, that he ii one of a large majority of the peoplo of the United States who believes negro . bondage to be a moral, social and polili- j veal evil. This idea, be tells us, is not : hie own. but it is based on facts This j | majority is homposed of Republicans, a j good part otSho Donglas Democrats . • Ate. And were It celled for, he could | quote from speeches of tbe illustrious Donglas to prove thai there is a mnjori- , ' ty who agree with us." Who does this j > majority agroe with f President Lin- j ' coin, 8<ephen A. Douglas, and Don A1piue. And what do they agree with ? j That negro boudago is a "social, moral, : and pohtical evil." In uiy letter to Don Alpine, through your columns, a j doubt was expressed of Mr. Douglas > being one of that large lusjority who ] believed slavery wrong, or that I had | not understood so from his speeches — ! Dors he prove it hy quoting from his ; speeches ? No, sir 1 not a sentence does he give us from Mr. D's speeches ; | ' but he refers us to the musty" pages of Mr. Douglas* catly public record And ; what docs he t'vll us wu will find there? 'Nothing on the subject iu plain English j but he reflects, Intimate, and speaks something h ambiguous, or doubtful and mysterious language, which voted up or voted down 0; C. thinks ho . does not conaidcr it ao evll.w Certain- ( / ly I do think that it indicates either a | war I of patriotism, or be- did not think , it an evil : the latter being the most i i charitable cons'rucjioti. Our friend f I .thinks it unjtnt to suppose Mr. Douglas : ■ -aid n.t think It en evil on account of [ his < xhibitingan indifference, and likcps | his indifference to tint (too common) propensity of our raee, to put off km k- ■ ing the Miration of (he eoul, and thinks it absurd !o suppose tlictu unbelievers. Dot suppose the character referred to ! should reriie the Christian faith, and apply all m inner of vilS epil eta to it and I take pains ic travel over moat of the Ui-ited Stales u vent bia spleen against it, (as'S A Doaglas did against the K -publii au party, because they opposed thr exttusioa off slaverj) would it. I ask bo absurd Ho suppose he waa an infidel? Bnt our friend has many pallia j : ting excaset for Senator D's indiffer- ■' nice (for which he ia commendable.) Sclf-intWest prompted it- the Conatitu. \ tlon recognUed alavary, and Mr. D'a oath required him to support tbe Con i stitotion, and he leaves us to iofvr that r he couM not speak a word against it without violating his oath of ofice. — 3 Bnt the "Sage of Ashland" he tells as, | declared, under the same offleial oath, i that ba'would "never aid in admitting , ! one rod of free territory to the everlea4 ting curse of human bondage." And, now, baa Don Alpine 'the- audacity •J to charge Henry Clay with lie awi ) ful rrintr t>f prtjury.L. Wc hope not Henry Clay did not believe as Don A1 1 p'.oa mIJ Mr. Donghu did : that be- . causa the ConstKatiou woognlzed slave, j i ry ia the states under the laws tbsreof, thai "their maters bad as mutb right to ! take their negroes i*:o tbe territories, and held them there, as you tiro yeur : horses or boga." lie bejiered that k] riave. wsre only bald by hml or aUt. j • 'iTsr? : : rii?d itfle joriediciions where slavery doe*. .. »... . . i n'Aifs i ' i v
