A Few Hits-?The Southern Patrio', (the paper recently establishei^fft Orcenville, l>y our fiiemls, 31 essrs. Perry <Si Klford, whose opinions us gentlemen and lawyers, we would regard with much deference, on any" question except a political one) was not only lucky in obtaining a good spoonful of pap i:i advance of -^publication from the President, but was also heralded into light with any quantity of pulls, and*fl by distinguished men. This we believe would be called by Sheridan the "puff preiimi nary," aiid it is well understood by our friends down East By the application of this puff, our Yankee publishers can start any periodical with a goodly list of subscribers, while other ! men more modest, have to toil on year by year,! uiui Southern Journals have often led a Jan- i guishing existence foe years. Our friends of j the Patriot, however, are more lucky, foi in ad- j dition to the thousand negroes and several hun dred thousand dollars worth of property, and the two thousand subscribers, they started with j a supply of letters, all expressing the ' knowledge and belief of the writers that the Soul hern Patriot would revolutionize (< recti- j ville, or turn aside Reedy river, or manifest its j appearance by some striking phenomenon. Among other salutations in advance, which i D I were sent on to be ready in time, is the follow- j ing extract of a letter, which we are tol l was received from a gentleman of distinction in ! Richland district."

SLAVERY IN CALIFORNIA. The California correspondent of the New York Tribune. wiites as follows: "Our Legislature is on the eve of electing a U. S. Senator, arid we fear the result, thousands of our. peofde are from the Southern States, many of whom in the highest offices, and are constantly urging the introduction of slaves into the State. All our journals, and we have many, are either silent on the subject, or speak openly in favor of the institution. A wrong impression obtained at the North in regard t the adoption of California to slave labor. In point of fact, no State in the Union is more favorable; none where slave labor could be more Iinifituhly employed. No State in the Union ins so tine and extensive marshes, called "To! ures," the finest land in the woild lor lice fi -Ids while ourvalleys will grow the best tobacco, and our extensive mines afford an addiiio ia!lv strong motive, Tlio climate too, is higiily favorable to the colored race. We who are educated at the North in free principles leel our danger, and will soon issue u paper of an order "to astonish the natives.' This is what is wresting it from the South she was told was a right of no practical value a mere abstraction ; and now circumstances have proved otherwise?and in all probability that which nature intended, it will vet Ik* in spite of policy, cunning and legislation. W e doulrt not that the poop!** of California will yet be able to tickle the palates uf our Northern fiiemls witii mammoth potatoes and other articles of the first quality, the pauLct of slave labor. As for the genius who expects to astonish the natives by endeavoring to supress the resources of the country, we think that to do so he will have to export some of those supernatural agents from his own favored laud, hut we scarcely anticipate it bv remarkable evidences of gcniu6 or talent which his productions in the way of journalizing will exhibit.

The act of the Legislature says, the Convention shall l e held iifter the meeting ot tne noumern r ongress, or so soon as the in-xt Legis'aiure may determine upon a day. Shall we wait until after the Southern Congress shall have met? It we wait until that indclinite day, we ma" as well at once abandon all thought of the Convention and prepare to submit with a grace as little ill as we can command. But we are not prepared to abandon the idea of the Convention, and therefore, the earliest daycontemplnted by the . ct of the Legislature should he fixed upon as the time for the assembling of the Convention. The appointment or naming of this day i by virtue . f the Act, defeire 1 nuiii t e meeti.ig ot the next Legislature; but in the mean time the I'tvs- ot" the State thoul 1. in the most energetic mood, urge the earliest practical day.

Our Senator Mr. Rhett, has recently in thp Senate of the United States, corrected some ol the misstatements, and untruths of the notorious Texan hero, in regard to South Carolina, and her laws, I Constitution, &.c. Mr. Houston s ill seems writhj ing under the lash, which lias been applied to him, j and will let no pportunity pass, of indulging his ! wrath against I'alme^-dom lor the castigalion i which he has received from time to time for his j misconduct. We think Mr. Rhett, has sufficient| ly shown that his late "tissue of untruths" are i gratuitous a rid ituquaiincu "assertions imcriy nes; tituto of foundation." General Houston states ' upon his authority that tho Constitution of Sou h Carolina is obviously fashioned upon an aristocratic model. "'lhc people, as such, li.ive very little control oft)flairs. No man can vote who does not own fifty acres of lan I or the equivalent, or pay a high tax. No man can he a member of the Legislature whoso freehold is not worth one J hundred pounds sterling, clear of debt, or be j tho Governor with less than fifteen hundred* i pounds sterlings free of debt. Tho elections ! are all confined to members of the Legislature, i That hotly elects or appoints all tho othcors of any grade, from the Governor down to the Sheriffs and Parish Judges.

The (lovcrnmont is a complete oligarchy?even more so than in Rhode Island under its royal charter. One of two facts must be evident: the people have no genuine spirit of freedom, or they would not have submitted so long to this oppressive dominion of mere wealth. In no other State would ft have been tolerated so tamely. In Rhode Island they have turned when trodden upon, but in South Carolina they seem to wear their chain without a murmur; and yet the self-constituted leaders of her councils have the cool impudence to designate others as 'submissiouists.' These descendants of the Huguenots and cavaliers have peculiar notions of freedom ... ii m. o r ?precise trie notions mat wouhi m mem iui ? snug little monarchy, if tliov could nullity the laws and Constitution of the Federal Government, or secede from tiio Confederacy.
