From the Washington Constitution.
The North the Aggressor?The
South on the Defensive.
Tlx? enemies of Southern institutions
are accustomed to deride Southern states
mon on,*ho alleged ground that they
cherish f. movuiS feting on the subject of
slavery. From the rampant Abolitionist
to the wily Froe^olier. 'ho stereotyped ac
ensation against the South is, that its
loaders thrust tho slavery issue where
there is no necessity for its presence.
? The oncroachments of the South" is the
test from which revcrond agitators wock
ly preach. Mr. Seward delivers lay dis?
courses upon the same theme. The New
York Tribune affects anxiety for deliver?
ance from the monotonous dispute. Mr.
Bell's party seek to conceal their Know
Nothingism under the same pretence.
And Mr. Douglas, since he left the Demo?
cratic party to consort with disappointed
office-seekers aud unti-slavery fanatics,
starts in every speech from the same point.
The great recommendation of Squatter
Sovereignty, if he- is to be believed, is,
that it will dispose of " the negro ques?
tion f in which view we should be dis?
posed to concur if,the triumph of aboli
. tionism could bo regarded as a result like?
ly to be acquiesced in by tho great body
- of the American people.
These attacks upon the South pass mus?
ter only in quarters in which gross igno?
rance prevails with regard to our national
politics, or in which prejudice or personal
animosity refuses to accept the truth.
? Tho Congressional history of tho last
twenty-five years leaves no room for con?
troversy upon this head. It not only vin?
dicates the South from tho aspersions
heaped upon it, but fixes upon the North
the st igma of having wantonly originated,
and unceasingly maintained, the excite?
ment in relation to slavery. The system?
atic petitioning in support of abolition
which John Quincy Adams fostered?what
was that but a gratuitous provocation?
an insult which had not even appearances
to justify it? The territorial contests
growing out of the Mexican Avar?what
were they but so many struggles by
Northern politicians to deprive the South
of lawful advantages ? Was not the Wil
. mot Proviso an aggressive act on the part
of the North, designed to curtail the con
' stitutional rights of the South? What has
been steady n -istance to the operation of
'the fugitive slave law but an attompt to
job Southorn citizens and to keep alive
unpleasant feeling in tho border States?
The repeal of the Missouri Compromise
was not an exception to thc>ule, since its
object was but to restore to the South its
rightful claim to common territory ?
though even this measure of justice has
?been thwarted by the organized move?
ments of tho Abolitionists in Kansas.
Wo purpose not to sketch with minute
precision tho eventful struggles between
the North and South during the period to
which we allude. The most casual refer?
ence suffices to indicate the unreasonable?
ness of those who hold up the South to
odium as a constant aggressor, and to
convict the North, which now pretends to
desire a speedy settlement of tho slavery
question, of having dono all that could be
done to invest it with its present alarm?
ing importance. Throughout tho South
has sought simply tho perfect enjoyment
of the rights guaranteed by the Constitu?
tion, and which enter into the basis of the
Union. Southorn statesmen have con?
tended simply that their people shall pur?
sue their course unmolested, that their ia
^stltutions^alT^?^TTowed to work unmo?
lested, that in the future of this country
they shall have their lawful heritage with?
out let or hindrance. To stigmatize this
as aggression, agitation, or greed, is to
display an ignorance of the English lan?
guage, or a determination to pervert eve?
rything for partisan ends. Tho North
cannot put forth the same honest boast.
With full control over its own institu?
tions, it has persistently attempted to con?
trol the institutions of others. It has
battled for the privilege of imposing its
ideas upon a section that will have none
ef them. It has manoeuvred and strug?
gled and scolded to reduce tho South to
subjection, and to carve and pare and in?
terpolate the Constitution to rendor the
process more easy and complete.
The difference between the parties thus
engaged in political strife is distinctly
marked. To tho North the question is
'one of sentiment, and nothing more, and
that sontimcut hollow, unreal, morally
and logically worthless. Tho plea of phi?
lanthropy, which is somotimes urged in
its support, degenerates into hypocrisy in
view of the moral and social condition of
Northern cities, and the status of labor in
their midst. Economically considered,
the matter is even worse. Tho North
would soon be crippled without the South
: as a customer Northern trade and com?
merce have nothing to hope for from the
change for which anti-slavery politicians
contend; whilst they have much to fear
from any change c alc ulated to disturb the
harmonious relations which the Union,
honestly worked, could not fail to engen?
der. The aggressiveness of the North,
therefore, may be characterized as peculi
r, arly offensive, becauso wholly uncalled for
by anything to be found in or out of its
own region. Far otherwise is the caso
with the South. Its material and moral
interefs are both involved. The founda
tions of its society, its enormous accumu?
lated wealth, its diversified industry, its
very existence as a country, are all im?
perilled by an agitation which, originating
in opinion, has never risen above tho low
level of a reckless fanaticism. The won?
der is, not that tho South now displays
sensitiveness under attack?not that it
bids aggressors mind their own business,
or prepare for the penalties of intermed?
dling?not that it insists that the annoy?
ances, the insults, the losses it has suffered
shall come to an end; for, in truth, tho
Southern people would be more or less
than human if these manifestations were
withheld. The wonder is, that aftof all
this provocation, and in the presence of
menacing hosts, they are still content to
demand only the plain and just protection
which the Constitution provides for their
benefit. They ask for their States equal?
ity under tho Union, and no more. They
seek for their property protection under
tho Constitution, and .'nothing else. And
the world will hold them justified in in?
sisting upon these terms, with secession
as the alternative.
Nor will the adoption of a bullying
tone, whether by a Douglas or an An?
drew, a Lincoln or a Know-Nothing, re?
move the necessity that exists for meeting
this issue frankly in the pending contest
for the Presidency. Tho Black Republi?
can army of Wide Awakes will not be
equal to the task of dragooning the South
into submission to the invasion of its
rights. Though Mr. Douglas be Mr. Lin?
coln's right-hand man. the threat to coerce
the South into compliance with whatever
Black Republican law-givers dictate, will
but nerve the Southern people to sterner
resolves and more energetic action. Ab?
stract reasoning about " the right of se?
cession" amounts to nothing. The only
thing requisite for us at present to know
is, that the South will not submit to a di?
minution of its rights, in the Territories
or in the States, and that the people of the
South are able to take care of themselves
when the General Government shall be
converted into a symbol of hostility.

A Noble State Rights Max.?Lieut.
Governor Montague, '*of Virginia, was
elected with Governor Letehcr in May
last, but received a larger vote by thou?
sands than Letcher. In the canvass, Mr.
Montaguo made speeches in every county
in the Stato, taking the strongest State
Rights grounds. The Lieutenant Gover?
nor is now, of course, for Brctkin ridge
and Lane, and has recently made a speech
at Warrcnton. A correspondent of the
Alexandria Sentinel says:
"He declared himself ;i Statos Rights
Democrat, in favor of sccc-oion whenever
our rights under the Constitution wcro
flagrantly violated and rhere remained no
Othor redress. The right of secession -he
claimed to be an original and cardinal doc?
trine of the Virginia school, taught by
Jefferson, Madison, Taylor, Giles and oth
?ers. A doctrine again and again affimcd
by Virginia, and especially In 1832, when
secession, not nullification, was declared
the rightful remedy. Mr. Montague allu?
ded to the last Gubernatorial election in
Virginia, as a vindication of States Rights,
and instanced as proof his majority over
Gov. Letcher. "The weight of the Ruff
ncr pamphlet would have been more than
he could boar, had he not cast his burden
on States Rights. The speaker scorned
the idea of its being treason to take up
arms in support of sovereign rights, and
his countenance was fiery indignation
when he alluded to Judge Douglas.' avowed
purpose to aid a Black Republican Pivsi
ilejit inputting a halter around our necks
should we dare resistance."

Col. Rudler.?Col. Rudler. of Alabama,
who was shot by the' Honduranos, with
Gen. Walker, was an officer in one of the
Southern volunteer regiments in t he Mex?
ican war. He emigrated to California iu
1849. A letter says:
lie was an active member of the Whig
party during the Presidential election in
1852, and in 1854 he received the nomin?
ation ofthat party for the office of Sheriff
of San Joaquin county, but was defeated
by the Democratic party, whicl: elected
I their whole ticket. In 1855 he disposed
of his property and left California to join
i Genoral Walkor in Nicaragua, and has up
to this time been with him in all his expo
i ditions. It was Col. Rudler's greatest
fault in having been, by some unaccount?
able moans, infatuated with Walker and
his destiny, although those who are well
acquainted with Col. Rudler will rcadily
admit that he was in every respect the
superior of General Walker, in point of
sound judgment and discretion, and had
he been the leader of the party in Xica
ragua a far dift'ereut result would have
been realized. Col. Rudler was a true
and bravo soldier, gentlemanly in all his
intercourse with his fellow men mild and
quiet in his demeanor, and honorable in
all his dealings; he certainly'deserved a
better fate, and his death will cast a gleom
over a large circle of friends, both in the
Southern States and California, Col.Rud?
ler was a young man, not far from thirty
years of ago.

Anderson, S. C., Aug.. 16,1860.
My Dear Sir: I have received your fa?
vor of the 9th instant. Your age, expe?
rience and ability entitle your opinions
to great weight on cveiy reflecting mind,
and I regret to learn from your letter
that yon dissent from my recommendation
th.at the honor and safety of the South re?
quire its prompt secession from the Union,
in tho event of the election of a Black
Eepublican to the Presidency. You say
your "mind is equally clear that the
South has long had a peaceful remedy
within her own reach, and has it still,
though impaired by the recent conduct of
some of her sons." You would greatly
oblige me by a lull exposition of your
opinions upon that point, as well as the
remedy to be resorted to by us. should
the Government, in Xovombei*, pass into
the. hands of a party whoso declared pur?
pose is to destroy our property; amount?
ing in value at tho present time to not
loss than throe billions one hundred and
fifty millions of dollars.
Can it be prudent, safe or manly in the
South to submit to the domination of a
party whose declared purpose is to de?
stroy such an amount of property and
subvert our whole social and industrial
policy?
Iii glancing at the evil and remedy, I
invite specially your attention.
1. To the persistent refusal of many of
the free States and to largo bodies of men
in all of them to execute the Fugitive
Slave law.
'1. To tho untiring efforts of fanatics
who come to the slave States under the
guise of preachers, teachers, etc., in in?
veigling away our slaves, and to the gen?
eral sympathy with their nefarious pur?
poses evinced by the facilities furnished
them by the underground railroad in
spiriting away our slaves beyond the
reach of their owners.
3. To the raid of John Brown and tho
sympathy which his well-merited execu?
tion evoked.
4. To the recent insurrectionary move?
ments in Texas?projected and carried
out by Abolition emissaries, where the
incendiary torch of the slave, lighted by
Abolition traitors, lias reduced to ashes
one million of dollars' worth of property,
and where the timely discovery of the
hellish scheme alone saved the lives of
thousands of inen, women and children.
Those arc the natural and necessary re?
sults of the teachings of Black Republi?
canism ; and if we have such develop?
ments under an Administration which
professes to guard our constitutional
rights, in the name of Heaven, what may
we not expect when a great party takes
the Governmentjtn^ij^machinery under
its control, avowing openly its purpose to
be the extirpation of African slavery
wherever it exists?
Is it wise, if we do not mean to submit
to such consequences, to at low a Black
Eepublican President to be inaugurated,
and put him in possession of tho Army,
the Navy, the Treasury, the armories
and arsenals, the public property?in fact,
tho whole machinery of tho Government,
with its appendants and appurtenances?
If the South should think upon this sub?
ject as I do, no Black Republican Presi?
dent would ever execute any law within
he;: borders, unless at the point of tho
bayonet, and over tho dead bodies of her
slain sons.
In your letter you say that you have
not taken me to-4?e ?? tUsfc-eisss of1 men
in the South who for veal's past have
been making and seeking pretexts for de?
stroying the Union. You have not mis?
judged me nor my designs'. 1 have a
profound and abiding affection for the
LTnion of our fathers, ami deeply dtrploro
I the existence of the cause.- which are r;ip
idly Unding to its destrncfion. (.Miring
!he whole of my Congressional career, I
sought to tranquilizo sectional si rile.
When I first entered the House, the Abo?
lition parly, headed by Giddings and Wil
mot, numbered eight; ten years have
rolled away, and now that party is a ma?
jority of the whole House. Is it not
time that the South should begin to look
to her safety and independence ?
I trust that the impending storm imu?
ne averted; that our rights and the Union
may be saved; that fraternal regard may
be restored; and that our country may
go on in the highway of prosperity that
it has so successfully trod for the last sev?
enty }-cars. This is tho aspiration of my
heart, and }*ct I am painfully impressed
with the conviction that it will never be
realized. I am, very truly, your friend
and obedient servant,

Alarm in Sumter.?On Saturday last,
as wo learn from tho Watchman, a negro
was taken up in Sumter on whoso person
was found orders on various merchants in
that town, and sundry forged passes. One
of the orders was for a rifle-pistol. The
negro pretended to disclose an insurrec?
tionary plot, involving some four white
men. One white man was arrested on the
charge of forgery. After an examination,
it was evident that tho so-called plot was.
a fabrication oTlho negro. The white
man was discharged and the nggro re?
manded to jail.

Female Education.
Shame onus, that we who boast of hav?
ing raised women, in the nineteenth cen?
tury, to the position in life which she
ought to hold, so educate her that not ono
of he.? powers, mental and physical, can
ever attain a full and healthy action. Bet?

grandmother, and bo content with Dil
worth's Spelling Book and Assembly's
Catechism?nay. better go to far earlier
days when neither catechism or spelling
book detained the damsel from the distaff
or the loom, than rear for the coming
generation a race of nervous wives and
sickly mothers.
"When the boy runs merrily after his
ball, or chases in the race, or leaps over
the bound, the girl must walk demurely in
the garden, because, forsooth, running, or
leaping and jumping, are ungraceful in
the girl. When the hoy runs freely over
the hills, through the woods in the sum?
mer, or coasts down the hill, or skates
merrily over the pond in winter, the girl
untrusted. unbvHtted, walks pensively by
the side of her toucher, to the village, or
takes a two mile airing in the sleigh once
a week, in fact, she never thoroughly
exercises her body at ail. and iu cb'rise
ojiciicc, very soon becomes unable to en?
dure any kind of physical fatigue.
" Fit only for boys." said a principal of
a large female institute to me, the other
day, when I remonstrated with him on
the importance of these and other little
exercises for the girls. For boys, indeed!
Ami has not a girl a physical system to
he developed and matured and invigora?
ted ? Has she not fatigue to bear, obsta?
cles to encounter, hindrances to overcome,
enterprises to carry out. duties to dis?
charge? Htts she not the burden of life
to cany, and its toilsome road to travel
for herself? In her own sphere, does she
not require, through life, all the energy,
strength and endurance of which her sys?
tem shall be capable ? It matters not
whether she is to live in the midst of
fashion, or to move quietly in circle's of
country life, or to find her lot on mission?
ary ground, or to struggle against unfore?
seen adversity, all that can be made of
her during her years of education. ph}-si
cally, morally, intellectually, she will need.
To every woman, whatever situation
she ma}- occupy, life is a fact, stubborn,
earnest, real, to be shaped and moulded
by her own efforts, or to be borne and en?
dured by her own fortitude. Happy is
she who is prepared for it, not by her own
despairing efforts in after life, but by the
judicious, careful, and thorough discipline
of early education.?Com. Ado.
