ML, !t is thought by ?n:my of. our "out side advi |g sors"' that South Carolina is on the brink of a 58 political precipice ; and that another step will E plunge her into a gulph of ruin. Many of he; b 'iiistde' advisers also chime in with litis predic6R lion, and lift up their hands In holy horror, at Mr " the enormity of our proposed action.

Even a few of the generous " advocates of genuine Freedom, have been led to tremble before the dark coloring of these evil r proshepcies, and, like timid mariners when scowling clouds portend to storm, are eagerly | crying aloud to their public sentinels, ' "Watchmen, tell ns of the night. What the signs of promise are!" As a reply to this anxious etiqniry, we cannot perhaps express our sense of "the hope that is within us" more aptly, than by adopting the concluding lines of the stanza we have just quote 1 in part?

This is their manifest t I fe'i1'tL tl/fite?bcrs:!id h f VI Wit? p1 - rsortb, as *J.?od^ .have given irrefragible proof ^ their disposition to pander to the wishes of this * fanatical faction. For it is undisputed by SoQtliprn men, that the late Compromise uieas- ^ urea, were studiously represented^ that faction as answering their designs, to nil inlrn'x and j purposes, if not, by special enactment, legisla- QI) ting tleeir will. The gilded pill, which was ad ministered to the South in the shape of the |(R Fugitive Stave Bill, is already producing the jn<1 . nausea of disgust; for ii is almost demonstrated, j that this bill is futile and nugatory. It is, in a word, evident that the Abolitionists have gain- A,e ed by this system of measures, ill mo-1 all that jj their heart can desire, .while Southern slave- ^ holders have lost every point in dispute. j(1, We maintain, moreover, that tins invpterate ;j ' enmity to Southern Slavery is not ii feeling of w sudden and mushroom growth?but one which tl|;1; dates back manv vm" ? 1 ?'Lt 1 j o?iu which nas become 'vj ramified through every grade of 'he Northern ( M society, high ai.d low, law-abiding and law- ( contemning, until it lias Income inseparable &tr(), from their social and political character.

This ^ progress was cHecked by the action of South |,yIlsj, Carolina in 1832.

And even now with the | fact of collusion proved by every proniiuent tj (jt measure of the compromise bills, 'hey would ^ ^|ie have us blindly believe that they are inHuenced e iu ther deeds soh-lv by friendship to the South -ji., and devotion to the C'liion.

Upon it should be roflfepnted the sovereignty of South Carolina W^the shape of a goddess, tramuliug under foot a torn parchment on which could be traced the words "violated compact," and holding aloft in her right hand I a banner, upon which should be emblazoned, "The South and hot-institutions against a world in arms.'" This is our true motto. The conflict is coming with speed and with certainty. Our oppressors have pursued and goaded us already J beyond the point of reasonable endurance.? j South Carolina has turned upon tbem and j holds them at bay. Will the rest of the herd desert her to her fate. A brute that 'lacks of discourse reason' would teach them a noble lesson. But no-our Southern Sisters u ill not, by this ungenerous and unnatural couduct, call down upon themselves such eternal disgrace. Kven should they not follow us out of the Union, they could not suffer us "to br, victimized."? The thousand ties of identical interests and of consanguinity, forbid the horrible sup|>osilion. Victimized by the decree of our natural allies! Oppressed and ruined by the Govern j irtent of the United States, with their consent and sanction !

For each one, using such craven language, there will be ten thousand who will say "Carotin's cause is our cause?we uiust and will sustain her."
