Though hi hassince-differed with sson some political questions' we sisl- regard him as one-of'us, and as eye ready to make com ntinifause withis hative Slate.

It will be seen, that he differs widely with Mr. Rhett and his con tituency, who recommend prompt and -decided State interposition. In the conclusion of his letter he says, that whenever South Carolina does act, no .matter in what form, he will return to her borders-and do battle for her. In this noble resolution, shineb out the soul of a dauntless patriot.. -It will commend him to the heart of every Carolinian, and espe cially of every State Rights man, who stood shoulder to shoulder with him in the. memorable contest of '32.. We close these hasiy remarks, by calling to this letter, the ~deep and careful attention of our readers. For the Advertiser. Mr. Editor :-1 was at the Barbecue at Hill's Old Field, on the Saluda side of the District, on the 91h instant, and was pleased to see see several of our candidates for the Legislature, called u pon to express their sentiments, or in other words to address the company. They acquitted themselves with credit. Gave sanction to all, and reviewed the most featnrs of the Democratic creed, such as the::spposition to an United States Bank, the distribution of the proceeds of the public land, the policy of internal im. provement -as carried on by the General Government, and dwelt with great force end energy upon the present unjust. odious and oppressive. tariffof '42, showing con clusively to every reflecting mind its opera tiors, and the great amount of tax payed in the' way 'of duty by ,the-South for the o~ction of Northern manufactures, and astly gave their hearty assent to the an vexatiou of Texas to the U. States, briefly showing the strength it would not only give the South, but the wVhole Union. -While they were haranguing the compa ny it struck me forcibly that they were ein -didates for seats in the State Legislature -and not for Congress, and I should have 'been better entertained if part of their ad dressea had consisted in pointing out some of the evils under which wo labor in our .

Resolved, That we highly approve the dignified course pursued by the whole Southern delegation, and regard their unanimity as an omen of future security to fhe South. Resolved, That we cherish no feelings. of, reciprocity with the self-styled conser vators of 1844, and do conscientiously at tribute to their unfortunate influence the inevitahle divission of the Methodist E.

Resolved. That while we deprecate all personal invective and abuse, nethertheless as -great principles are involved in this question, we feel compelled to express our disapprobation of the unjustifiable course pursued by the Rev.

Resolved, That at this crisis of our eccle siastical affairs, it has become essential to the success tLf our cause,-widely to diffuse the circulation of our Southern papers, and to reccommend to our friends generally our favorite perodicali, the Southern Christian A-lvocate, as every way worthy of their generous patronage. Resolved, "last thought not least," That we highly apprecate the forbearance..in dependence and magnanimity manifested by our beloved Bishop Andrew during his unjustifiable persecution, and which we would assure hitm of the sincerity of our christian sympathies, would express our sense that fie continue among us the exer cise of all the functions of the Episcopal office for which he is so eminently quali fied. SLAVERY IN ENGLAND AND IN THE UNITED STATES. Lord Brougham. and other philantro pists by profession in Great Britain, have made a great noise about the case of a man in South Carolina, who was senten ced to be hanged for slave stealing. They held up one of the American States as the only civilized community in the world in which such a penalty for such an offence was authorized by law.-The fact of the case however is that the law in question was an English law passed in 1750, while South Carolina was under British rule. It had remained obsolute on the statue book, its existence scarcely known, until the occasion referred to, when the State's At torney found himself obliged to urge it against the prisoner. The matn, however wds pardoned, and there was an end of the matter, Judge O'Neal, before whom the caso came, has given a-brief history of the affair which is published in the Glasgow papers In the course of his letter the Judge asks. "Is Scotland free from the sin of slave ry-white slavery? Are there no task masters in Englanid, Scotland, and Ireland, who can vie with thze very worst amongst us!? Compare our slaves, negroes though they be, with your white servants, your starving laborers, your suffering tenantry ; and if they have not more comforts, more happiness, South Carolinians will be con tent to be branded as merciless tyrants. But until the condemnation is brought about, we say to your censors, Physician, heal thayself." The'London Times, comnmen itng on the Judge's fetter, is constrained to make these admissions: "The dijference bettoeen England and Carolina is, that our wohite slaver are so cheap that the people will not buy them. They are a drug in the mai keg. It is the interest of the em ployer to leuve them asfree as possible. The selsh ness of powoer and woealth, of land ad cap. ital.. tells not directly on the indwvidual *'ohite.slazve.' but on the system of the wohole laboring mass." eThis is a pretty fair exposition of servi tude in England. The slavery of English laborers- is thet of a caste. "it is the inter est of the employe~r to have them as free as possible."., ,That. is..to.say, the domestic relation between the remployer .and the laborer is .as -slight .as. possible-for te reason that .the former vanl.sahe service of ;he. other, withouit..incurring-responsi bilities towards him beyond ihe~tmail pit aiceof.wages which is .S;'d.:by the ias .terimself. .HBecomes unde-raoobligation. tofurnish regular' 9.mploynient, but. dis charges-the'laborer at will, he is not bound -tefstport'him lhbj-e the psoor nian is sick liel akes -no car'e of the old' brok'e'down Neithier does se nogltiih'tiie'd'oaity thtng telsee his'working man comfoitubly provided' with'lidgngs, (ood, orfibiing.

Dilfeenoce, among men on all subjects, muust exist in a, grearer or lesa degree This arisesfrom ihe difference in oar-minds.

This want of unifor juevenrsanatinn of thouott and conduces to the vigor, and expansion of the- intellect by the very-,Collision it produ ces. .There are .iniajlqqtal causes whichi increase'' this diverstt, yiz:-education, prejudice, association, interest,_ ambition. I That thdse who agwree in.thought'should. desire to promote their %iews and asso ciate witheach othet 4ha' thei strength may be combined for gria er 'elliciency.,ts perfectly reasoiable. . H.ehe the.various I sdcieties, religious, noral -and civil. . But a question arrises here. how far should one surrender himself to his party ? Unques tionably some concessions must be made, 1 or we must presently dissolve our connec tion with every association, and maintain an isolated position. We suppose that all will agree, -that the rights.of private judg-. ment and of conscience ought to he retained by every individual member. If these are to be given up, the worst sort of despo tism is established. True. there ought to be submission to the will of the majority in many instances; but thisshould be lim ited. It should be confined invariably to. cases of pure expediency. Submission. to party should uever be urged farther than this : for be it remembered, we can never merge our individual responsibility to GOD, AND OUR COUNTY in our par tyism. The obligation remains as long as' we have a God, and a Country. Again: the evils consequent upon an improper ex tension of party authority are of the most fearful magritude. It was this that made the revolution of the French so terrible a calamity. Maximillian Robespierre would have been powerless, but for the Mountain party, which required from its members implicit submission, or gave them the guillotine as the alternative. History is replete with instances which confirm our assertion. The common phrase, "ny party, right or wrong," has no foundation in reason or in religion. No one who makes this his sentiment, and acts upon it, is a freeman. He is the slave of others. though his service is voluntary. His party dictates, and he is their "very humble and obedient ser vants." Such a mah stripshimself ol' the habiliments of freedom-gives up his heri tage-brutalizes himself as far as ie can, by the voluntary sacrifice of reason and of conscience, There is no patriotism in the sentiment; for it withdraws all -allegiance from our country and bestows it on a faction. He who supports a party in the wrong, wars against his country, and is a traitor. The sentiment is impious; for it ungods the deity. and deifies humanity. Does God condemn the wrong? Yes, responds the advocate of implicit submission,: but "the party" approves it. Can there. be any thing more repugnant to the spirit of religion ? How nobly our friends.in South Caroli na come up to their duties-how gloriously they meet and overcome the obstacles thrown in their way, whether by opponents or by limid friends ! The Edgefeld Ad vertiser, Extra, in givioh us the proceed ings of the late State Temperance Con vention, exhibits to our delighted eyes a picture well worthy of imitation by all who would present American society without spot or blemish to the admiring gaze of the world. What zeal is lisplayed in the number of delegates in attendance ur.on the meeting-what teal and wisdom.too. in the whole character of the proceeuings? And how admirably does the address to the citizens justify the course of the soci ety, and expose to just cen.<ure. the oppo sition of its enemies; or feeble friends ! Breihren of Carolina, we admire your excellent cond'uct-wd will labor to have it imitated on this side of the Savannah ! Aug.
