Mr. Lincoln has been thus elected, I readily admit. But the slave States have a right to resist the execution of a policy at war with their interests, destructive of their peace, injurious to their rights, and subversive of the ends and objects for which the Union was formed. No party can be allowed to array section against section, with the ultimate purpose of destroying the property and rights of the weaker section ; and such must be the inevitable tendency of the distinct avowal in the Kepub...lican creed, of "no more slave territory, " To exclude slavery forever from present or future ac- quired territory, is publicly to announce that another slave State can never enter into the bond of our common Union. No slave State can ever apply for ad- mission, if slave labor is forever excluded from our public domain. The result of such a policy was clearly predicted during the late canvass. Kentucky preferred, and hoped to make the contest against the inauguration of such doctrines within the Union.
