Let us tolerate differences of opinion without proscription, and U.-e argument and reason without abuse: and if there be any who are weak and tiiuid. encourage them to become strong and coutideut. The time has oome when it will lie death lo tlie people of the South to remain longer in the I'nion, governed us it will he. under Lincoln's rule, by a despotic, sectional majority. We can encounter but I lie same fate if we go out of it, and set up a Government of our own. I apprehend no such result, however; but, on the contrary, when the South shall alone govern the South, 1 look forward to the day when her flag shall wave over the most powerful, free aud independent people that the eye of mortal man over yet beheld. True, for a time, we may expect to encounter trial, trouble and difficulty. in re establishing and re-organizing the forms of a new government, and sacrifices to patriotism must tie made. True, the progress and prosperity of thecoun'ry iiiusf and will be checked for a time, but when I look through the vista of the future my mind's eye behol.it a mighty, prosperous and powetful people, homogeneous in sentiment, identical in interest, with the elements and iesources ot future greatness at their Command, unci|uaUed iu the history of the world. Greece and Home, in their palmiest days, pon sensed nothing to compare withthe resources of the South.

I mean the \ question of immediate Stale secession, lam sure that you arc all aware that I have for the t lest ten years, at least, been known to you as j one who believe* in the right of a State to secede from the Union, whenever she inay think it proper so to do.

This 1 regret exceedingly, because Ufa indicative of what I have desire and labored to avoid: namely, a division in our District. Of all things most to be hoped for at this serious and important crisis in our political history, nothing could be mora earnestly desired by all true South Carolinians, than Unanimity of artoin ami harmony of feeling; to secure which personal considerations should be laid aside, and so far aa I am concerned ha - been and shall be. Iliad hoped that the M ss Meeting on lass Saturday would result in the accomplishment of this eud. aud for this pu-pose 1 not only heartily concurred in the call of the meeting, but seeing that some who were older in years and citizenship in the Distrrct though many years my junior in the doctrines of secession, desired to be among the Keprcentstivcs to tha Convntion, I said to my friends who wished to briug my n.-itne forward as a candidate, that I was unwiling to be in the way of any gentleman whatever that t had no poltical aspirations; that it wa< Jglory enough for ine who had batilod far fit teen years for separate secession to see my State, and more than all tnyadoptel District, united in-favor of th* measI had so long advocated as the only salvation of the honor, prosperity nud happiness of tha South, and that 1 infinitely preferred harmony ! in this matter to my own personal feelings or preferment, and announced publicly and privately my determination to support the nomination of the meeting, let them be who they might, provided it was made upon those principles of conciliation and equality to all sections so necessary in public meetings of this character ; nnd even now, although the nomination was not such as in my judgment is calculated to produce the harmony and good feeling it I ought to and might have secured, yet I am willing to support it. if by so doing I could restore that strength and unanimity of action so de imhle. Hut having done everything in my power before the meeting assmbh-d. while ft wasgoingonand since its adjournment npto this moment.

D. WRIGHT. Wtint (he President Intends. The Northern papers are full of couusel to the President, as to what he should do to mb. trol the rebellion (!) in South Carolina. We incline lo ilie opinion that Mr Buchanan will lay the cane before Congrees which meet* on* week after our Legislature. We wish that our Convention could have met and acted immediately, ao that our Co turn is? ion ner could have appeared in Washington upou the assembling of Cougres*, notwithstanding the opinion of the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia .VorfA .isMntaiK The moat extraordinary ideaa seems u> be entertained in Sooth Carolina aa to the easy practicability of secession. just aa if it might demand of passionate caprice, and without the least interference from any other quarter. They even speculate as to the Commissioner who is to be sent to Washington for the purpose of ati rangiug the terms of withdrawal from the Geaeral Government. All such plans may be devised and put on paper easily enough, but when they come to be carried out. a very different aspect will be presented. The Constitution is the suptcroe law of the laud and of each StateThe President takes an oath to support it and to execute the laws. If any State chooses to. defy them, and to set up her authority against tlis Constitution, he has no recourse loft but to. exert the necessary power which is provided for such a contingency. If a Commissioner should present himself here on any such er> rand, ho would be sent back with s message ! not very tlnuering to the pride of the Stale which appointed him. And if he should appear at luy o! ih? Kuropenn courts, it would be only lu confront an admonition from this Government, that any recognition of the rebellious , Stale would be regarded a* an act of war. This | in the view of those who are authorized from, protniuence and position to apeak, and it only foreshadows what euibarraesiuenl* are to attend 1 every step of this rash and perilous esperi| menl. Mr Buchanan has no warrant in the Const II iiinmi to coerce a Mate which ha* passed an ordinance of secession. lie may po??ihly attempt i to collect revenue still in her ports, by his revenue vessels, but he has no author ty to. send his army or navy against said State. We do not believe he *? ould placdhis revenue oat-, tors oil such port* and attempt to prevent the entry or clearance of vessels from her porta*, for this would hring on a collision at once, as the aggression would be considered an attempt at coercion, and be resisted. We think he w?l\ refer the whole matter to CongrcM. ? Carol**m* j\c*sox, Mississippi, November 2-4.?The Congressman from thin Stale met to-day, and unanimously declared for a Southern Coafeder* acy.
