"We are gratified to see that the statement which recently appeared, that the venerable Chief Justice had fallen to the floor from exaustinn was a mistake. ^ The Xaiional Intelligencer, in contradicting the statei ment, says:? " ' think it propor, in order to relievo any anxiety ' which tho report may have created among the Judge's friends at a distance, to say tnat it was untruo; his health, we are happy to learn, is as good as it has been for some time past." TTe trust that the life and health of this noble man and just Judge may be long spared, but in the course of natural and human events, be must, before a great while, leave his active duties, and in time, bo gathered to his fathers. When he is gt5ne, and his worthy associates with him, and. their places supplied by tirae serving hucksterers, what will become of the . "open fi' . question" then, which some of our politicians pro11 nounoed an abstraction t We had better strike now, R . while the spirit is up, for if the South succombs at this point, and yields to "Squatter Sovereignty." we are gone beyond recall, and no future effort need ever be fj? attempted to raise-the spirit of our people. An - "A Farmer." We cheerfully give placo in our columns to-day to "A Mhner". It iB not .necessary for us to say, that we differ yith him in toto. As will be sqon, he is -opposed to the present ppsition the Sotth occupies in - relation to the National * Democratic party, and is in favor of "non-intervention" and "Squatter' Sovereignty." Wo will not undertake a formal reply to the arguments.?! "A Farmer," which are pretty' much the same as those so often used by the Douglas school of polUiefotfa. As to what this man or that man saidr "or as to the resolutions this or that party adopted, years ago, when this question was jjweeentoff and viewed under different phases from wfiayft has now assumed, we attach but little impordajfoe. " . jgOno thing wo know is, tlio eight Cotton States is _^^now a compact?a unit?a unit upon priuciple, truth and justice; and if their harmony is to be broken, and ik weir counsels aistracieu, wo mu ovo wat uuuu, v. I love" to 6uch of their sons as feel able a"nd willing to Bk assnmo the responsibility. We will content ourselves - by referring the reader to our editorial, prepared for our present issue, before our friend's article was lianded in, which embraces pretty much all the topics conI > tainod in tho article of "A Fanner," and leave them to form their own judgment as to the proper course for the South to pursue. Kdu-intcrreniion, Squatter Sovereignty, ice. Tiio_term non-intervention, in a political point of view, is now obsolete. It never did havo a sensible I moaning, when used to denote thrrelation of Coverng 1 ment ^"property. For a Government to ignore its ob| ligation to protect all property within its known and -acknowledged boundary and jurisdiction, would be to m ' abandon every thing to a state of anarchy and confu I aioD. Suppose the spoiler was to enter the sacred doI. wain of Uic family, and the ruler of that house were to fold his arms and say, I am committed to the doctrine of non-intervention, things must take their own course, 1 have thrown- off all responsibility and will have nothBHa - ing to do with the mattor. "Would not such a man reSB -ccivo, as he would justly -deserve, the execration or -every body. Even the spoiler "himself would look SI . upon him with contempt. And so ought, and so will ' that government, and that party who propose to adsunistor the Government upon such a principle, be ?, hcld in the most profound disgust and contempt by all ^^gtrc^^t^Swas simply a nothing?a hSbk; but when an occasion arises, demanding that the term ' shall havo a definite moaning attached to it, wo find StEPKTK A. Douglas, and his army of spoilers, in order to commend themselves to the all-pervading abolition Bentiment of the. non-slaveholding States, forced to the construction that the general Government was to have nothing to do with property in slaves,?tfce agwit; the creature?the mere appointee of the Government was to havo supreme control of that class of property, and might exclude, abolish or destroy it, at the will of a myo numerical majority of squatters in a ' Territory. ~ This construction, when announced through tiie public journals of the country, fell upon the cars of the Southern people like a thunder clap, and filled the vftolo public mind with alarm: for few men, if any," - in-the South, had 076: dreamed that they were supporting and upholding a government that was so pulsilanimoua and contemptible, as to voluntarily surrender its own dignity, by ignoring its duty and responsibility to protect end defend the property righis of its own -citizens, within its acknowledged jurisdiction. The -construction the South put upon the term, was theliteral construction, viz:?that the general Government was not to' interpose its power to "establish" or "prohibit" the introductioif of slavery into tho Territories as an institution; hut nono supposed that if a citizen of any of the States of the Union went into any of the Territories with his slave property, that tho genemi Government was to refuse to afford tho same pro taction to that property, that it afforded to all other kinds of property, if assailed or in any wa^tbroafencd. ' For the Government to do so, it must ignore its own responsibilities, or openly assume the ground that slaves are not property, and therefore not entitled to governmental pr-vection. Mu. Douglas, in his Harper articlo, affirms that slavery only exists by authority of statutory law^ which is as fulse as Saten himself. The institution has existed iu South Carolina for about two hundred years, and the record shows < no law establishing it There are laws regulating it, as there aro laws regulating other property, but nono establishing it Tbo word slavory does Hot even appear iu the State Constitution. The fact is, the contrary of Mr. Douglas' affirmation is exactly true. It exists now in overy State in the Union, except wnere it has been positively preliibited by the force and power of statutory law. And if-the free States w{ll repeal all their prohibitory laws, tho institution of slavery will as naturally grow up in all those States, as it is for men and women to marry, have homes and raise up children. Mr. Sswahd made three affirmations in the United States Senate, viz:?1st, that the Union was stronger than slavery; 2d, that they intended to transfer the slavo controversy from the North to the Sou h; and 3d, that the South must be free or the North must be slave. Now, let the-South yield her construction put upon the term non-intervention, arid she assents to the truth of hlr. Seward's second affirmation, and will thereby have confirmed the belief in the truth of his first affirmation, when the former condition to his third most necessarily follow as an easy, and an inevitable result. . But, let the eight seceding States stand firm and united upon the principle of protection, as embodied in the majority report to the Charleston Convention, and they wiH have maintained the only ground upon which *'? ? ? TTnfnn mth honor or safatv. iUU) UiU itlflUiU M* ?MV W...W- ,m1 and (fill have confined, for the present at Ieast4 this controversy to the free States, where, let party triumphs be as they may, ro harm can result to the social organism of society. But, let the South accept of .bis controversy, so generously tendered her by the Xortb, and she will have, admitted among her people, an element of dimension ar.Q discord that will stir society to its very depthar for it strikes at the very root and foundation of our social organism of society and of oor humane^ and venerated-, system' of civilization, for it must ba remembered that litis can dbt be done without a conflict, and a conflict.'of the most distracting and violent character; and the Southern man who leoda his influeco to such ends, most see to"rt. that he is well prepared' to shoulder .tho rcsponsibilitr. That It ia '-be 'imperativd duty pf the government to protectthe property bf I'm own citizens, i9 a self-evident propo^ jit ion which none deny. "VHty then is' it that "the j ? % W, f % I < W_ ^ Northern democracy, .who vaunt themselves as.tl:o friends of the Sou th-rrthe only friends of the South, north of Mason and Dickson's line,?will not accept of . a platform embodying tlio principle of protection to slave property by the general Government, in the common Territories ? The reason is obvious: it is simyly because they do not believe that- man has the right of property in his fellow man. And if any of them do believe it, they fear and tremble at the idea of committing themselves to such doctrine beforetheir constituents; for in doing so, they well know that they are putting to hazard all their hopes of honors and emoluments so inviting' in the general Government. With the discussions and final action of these Northern ''friends" before him, as developed in the Charleston Convention, it is a matter of the profoundest astonishment to us, how any well informed Southern man can possibly see any safety to the institution of slavery in the Union, after the point at issue is once openly yielded. The meutal vision of such a man must be illumined by a love of the Union that "possesseth knowledge." If our "only friends"*of the. dominate section preempto"rilj? refuse to commit themselves, in case they should succeed to the administration of the Government, to the protection of slave property in the cotnmOn Territories, what is to become of that class of property, I would ask. in case our declared eueraies succeed to the administration of public affairs ? We leave it for the disturbers of Southern harmony to answer. Hut, we do not argue that for the South to stand firm upouB the principles of State equr'ity in the Territories; that therefore, a dissolution oi mo union mu necessarily ionow, iur it may ue, and very probably wi.l be," the only way the Union can bo saved: certaiDjy, it is tho only thing that can make tho" Union worth saving, to tho South, and we suppose there i-rno Southern nan so croven as to dosire to remain in the Union upon-.any other terms than that of equal rights among equals. | The simple point at issue bet ween, tho Northern and Southern democracy, is this: The South asks that' her construction of tho Cincinnati platform, or the term non-intervention?protection to slave property in the common Territories by the general Government? as recommended by a majority of the States, in the Charleston Convention, be adopted. Tho North, by her mere numerical majority in that Convention, refused this request On this action, eight of the Southern States withdrew from the Convention. Tho Con vention then adjourned, to meet in the city of Baltimore, on the 18th June next The eight seepdfng States then held a mooting and recommended that a new Convention assemble in Richmond, on the 11th June next Thus matters now stands. By this action, the point at issue is made so plain that none can fail to see it; and is so narrowed down that there can be no compromise. If the two parties, .therefore, again get together, there must be an open and barefaced surrender on the jiart of the one or the other. For the North to surren der would require no sacrifice on her part," savo the | mere chances of offices. i For the South to surrender, would bo to lay down i both principle and honor, and to hand over the key that unlocks the door of her safety and tranquility, i and let the spoiler come in at will, nnd thereby subject ( the long cherished ar.d venerated insitutions of our i fathers, to the whims and caprices of a mere numeri- i cal agrarian m?jority of tho wholo people of all the States in the Union. - i The words of such men as Mr. Douglas nnd Seward, i is a solemn warning.to the South, to which she should give the most earnest heed. Mr. Seward is a bold, 1 daring inovater, and a Representative man of his sec- i tion, and for the South to affiliate with him, would be, ] with both eyed open, voluntarily to submit to her own i degradation and distruction. Mr. Douglas is the I persunmuauuu ui u^puuiuvj nuu ucuu^u^ucwiii, >vuuae policy, under the guise of "Frieud" points to the same ends, and to afhlliate with him. would be, with eyes half open, to be driven, like silly birds, into the net, there to be ridiculed and moeked at, and finally crowded out of exjstnnce. If in either case, our fate is dishonor and dhath, it would be more manly to march out before all the world and be shot down, rather than liuve limb after limb amputated untill the vitals are reached, half pretending to believe, the while, the assurances of ibe opperater that he .Was our "friend." and was trying to tfaro us. In otl^r. words we think it rooip noble to be a^lave with^^^J^of a sl^ve, frccraan. In concluding these remarks, wo would again soy. let him who would advise the South to roceede from the present high and honorable position in which she hasbe^n placed by the action of the Charleston Convention, see well to it, that he is prepared to assume the responsibility. It is our province, as a journalist to scan the course of passing events and give to the public, the result of our conclusions, this we have done to the best of our ability, we might amplify on the topicks tutclied updft, but prefer that our readers should pursue the subject for themselves. King's Mountain Military School. In our last wo a'luded td this excellent School, and called attention to a notice to be found in our paper. We tako pleasure to-day in laying before our readers an editorial from that excellent paper the Yorkville Enquirer. "On invitation of the gentlemanly, and enterprising Principals?Messrs. Jenkins and Coward?we have visited this school, and we mus^say that wo derived from the visit, great and unfeigned pleasure. The recitations at which we were present; the evidences of thorough preparation and good discipline; the searching method of instructors; the awakened interest of pupils in theirstudies, and their known habits of sobriety, subordination and studiousness, ail betoken the true principles upon which this school is found, and the ability with which it is conducted. We were osf pecially pleased to see the History of South Carolina by W. Giltnore Strums, adopted as a text book?an evidence that the IJfincipals ar?- determined to supply in every "section," or department, that which is best for the young mind's training and development No State in the Union has a more interesting history than South Carolina, nor an abler historian of itsolf than Mr. Simms, and we heartily recommend the admirable new edition of his work?upon which lie labored almost the whole of last year?to schools and families, as the most reliable! copious, concise, and cutoriaining -history to Ka 1>oH nf nnr "This school has been established six years; during i which time, the firm and consistent, but enlightened j and humane, enforcement of its laws, has created such u prevailing state of good conduct and manly regard to duly among old cadets, that new ones, under the in- s (iuence of good example, fall into the usual order of things almost without an averse thought or inclination. , In this respect our military- school is greatly ^preferable to those which have been organized only, perhaps, a " few mouths; bud which, consequently, can have no such conserver of good order as a body of well-disci- ] plined'old cadets. ' , "Beside the course of study necessary to admittance into the second class of the Citadel a( Charleston, there is a strictly classical department, to prepare boys for i South Carolina, or any other College. Thin is a rure j inducement; and it seems to us that parents who wish [ to graduate their boys at a literary institution, would do well to send them here to prepare, in order that they might receive the benefit of military discipline. ? "The faculty is c mposed ol young men, possessing much talent, and superior attainments in their respec- , tive departments. Mr. Jumieson, the French Professor, has just taken his sent. The enterprise and spirit that ( characterize the school, are seen in the fact that before assuming jpis place, Mr. Jumieson went to Paris and ' placed himself under native instructors, which is the ' only way of mastering tho difficult pronunciation of * the French language. He comes now, fresh from this field of culture, to the discharge of his duties; and will, * doubtless, "magnify his office." ' "The location of this school in our beautiful and 1 highly salubrious and healthful mountain village; its 1 object, as a nursery "ot only for military, but also literary, institutions ?f the highest grade; and it* character, as reflected in principals, instructors, cadets, f by-laws and regulations, recommend it highly to the j patronage ot parenu ana guaraians in oouiu uurouua . and the surrounding States."
