Withithe construction of a Powder Magazine and Depot for the reception of arms, on the Citadel Square, the Ordinance Department have takes another step which will be hailed with more general satisfaction than the loca tion of the Magazine appears to have given. They have orderd to be cast within this State, two Batteries of Field Artillery, consisting of .eight '6 pounders, and four 12 pound flowitzers-the material to be bronze-the pattern the same as used in the United States Arumy-carriages for these twelve pieces are alrs to be furnished with all requisite imple mets-the contract to be completed, and the work ready for delivery by the 15th day of June next. Here is a fine opportunity for the enterprising proprietors of our foundries to come out'and show what they can do, under State patronage, and in a good cause. It would be inconsistent to call upon our neigh bors or foes to furnish us with sticks to break their owu heads with, and there is no earthly reason that we should be reduced to this ex tremity. We can make our own cannon as well as our own cotton bags, (which were once made to serve the same purpose at New Orleans,) or our own clothing and daily food. We have already shown that we can, with our various factories, clothe ourselves, eat ourselves, physic ourselves--nd now we have a chance to snooT ourselves without calling upon the Yankees to supply the mate rials.-Charleston Courier. SECESSMON AND NULLIFICATro.-A declara tion of Gen. Jackson is quoted by some edi tors, that Secession and Nullification are the same; that both are treasonable. The opin. ions of distinguished politicians are often as wide from the mark of common sense, as those of other persons. To nullify is to net insopposition to the constituted authorities while acknowledging their legal force under the Co'natitution ; and this is treason. Sicession is an act of sovereignty by which the-compact is annulled by one of the coniracting parties on account of a violation .f its conditions. There is no such thing as -constitutional secession; the ground of se -cession is that there is no constitution, be. .cause the charter is broken, and therefore .does not exist. The State has merged a part only of her sovereignty in a common stock of authority and when this authority is abused or the conditions of the grant violated she resumes her delegated trusts; is a sovereign State, and cannot commit treason. This is 'common sense. We admit that this conclusion canrot be Teached through the mazes of legal techni calities'and precedents. Why ? because not -one 6f the former applies to the case in hand, any more than it would apply to the atmos phere of the moon-and there are none of the latter on record that admit of the least .application iti the premises. This is an origi nal question, and cannot be solved or explain ed through the musty folios that come down to us'through~ th~e despotisms of ages,' and " iiid~ehitnfiunce of aristocratic 'and nio .nar~hia1 and imperial notions of liberty and equality and the rights of man.-Wilming ton Coin.. Loox ouT FOR COUNTERFEITS-Bank of South Carolina.-Some years ago our com-. mnunity was troubled with counterfeit bills on the Bank of South Carolina, and upon a stir being made, they were suppressed until with in a few days since, when one was discovered in circulation again, and since two more have been offered. T.hey are supposed to be five dollar bills of the old "Bank of West Flori da," "Apalachieola"-" Bank of West Flor ida," and " Apalachicola," having been eras ed, -and "Bank of South Carolina," and SCharleston," placed in the stead; and in some it is so wvell done that it takes close in speetion to discover the fraud. The oldest issue is signed ".Goodard, Pres." and J. C. Wiggins, Cash'r:" the last issue, "J. S. Cogdell, Pres.;" Ca shier'saname unintelligible but appears like former issue; both well exe cuted. First payable to "J. Hale," latter payable to "W. Jones." The former has the letters " A a,"'with a-under each letter, the latter the letter "A," the little "a" ap parently erased.-Wakulla(Fla.) Times, 12th instant. SAD INCIDENT AT SEA.-Letters have been received at Augusta, Me., from Mr. and Mrs. Severance, who left here some months since in the ship Gentoo, Captain Dovens, for the Sandwich Islands. The letters are in the Kennebec Journal. In a letter from Mrs. Se verance dated Dec. 1, off Valparaiso, she gives the following account of a melancholy incident: "Our number of passengers is eleven. The officers and crew twenty-six now. One of our -number is no more. On Monday morning, the 18th of November, of Cape Horn, Thomas L. King fell from the foremast, struck the railing, and thence fell into the sea. He soon disappeared. The scene on deck for a moment I can never forget. It wvas blowing a gale, the waves running moun tains high. Attempts were made to get the boat out, hut all in vain. He was a healthy, strong and good boy, about sixteen years of age, from Boston. The captain, at 12 o'clock, called all hands into the cabin; the church services were read, a hymn sung by the young ladies, and thus was done the last for that poor boy. God in mercy prepare his dear parents to meet the affliction with submission. IN AID AETER TnJE HONEY Moo.-When Hon. Trumau Smith, Senator from Connecti cut, returned to Washington wvith his youth. .ful, accomplished and handsome Alabama wife, somebody asked him how many slaves she had. "Only one," said Truman, bowing tow, and placing his hand upon heart-" only one, who is proud to be her slave." This wvas very good. A correspondent of the N. York Herald gives a suplemnentary anecdote a month later. On the night the platform gave way at the Washington Circus, Mr. Smith was present with his young wife, and it is said that when the crash came, ho ran for the door, leaving the lady to shift for her self. Another lady, observing it, remarked, pointing at the honorable Senator from Con neticut-" Look! look! there goes a fugitive slave !" LoNGEvTY.-A negro man, the property of Mr. Newvnan, of this city, died, yesterdaiy morning, at 4 o'clock, at the advanced age of 104 years 11 months and 4 days, being born on the 17th of March, 1746.-Charleston Conrier Gov. QVITMAN.-The-re]wrts Qtruitedoboiii to the efleet that it was in proof that - Gov. Quitinan had addressed-a large crowd of the < Cubans at a Club room in Lafayette, above v New Orleans-that he had purchased Cuba t bonds, &c., are absolutely and unconditional- d lv false. When applied to, to take command ( of the expedition, he instantly declined on , account of the station he held; and so care- t ful was he of violating the laws of neutrahi ty, that he did noteven inquire into the means and plans of the expeditionaries. lie felt a warm interest and sympathy in the expedi tion, as did thousands of others, including ourself, and he gave letters of introduction addressed to the leaders of it, to several gen tlemen who had served with him in Mexico, t who were determined to join it, and whom he t felt solicitous should receive such stations as] their merit entitled them to. This, with the private loan of some small sums of money, t is about the extent to which lie was "impli cated." We have these facts from a near 1 friend of the Governor, whose word has never been doubted or called in question. And for this (we have authority for saying) cabinet conclaves have been held at Wash ington, and venal letter writers have been in structed to declare, (for mean purposes) that the government had evidence "to convict him ten times over." Upon such a flimsy pretext, this indictme'nt has been urged, for get ful of all courtesy due to the State Gov ernment, to the extent of forcing the Gover nor to a resignation.-Vicksburg Sentinel. THE EXPENSES OF GovERNMENT.-The supply bills which are before Congress in elude an expenditure of nearly forty-seven millions of dollars, is follows: The Defici eney bill, amounting to about $2,500,000; b Civil and Diplomatic, $6,500,000 ; Army and t Ordinnce and Fortifications, 810,500,000; West Point Academy, $200,000; Navy, $10,000,000: Indian Expenses, $2,000,000 ; Post office, 85,500,000: Mexican Indemnity, $3,600,000; River and Harbor Appropria tions, $2,000.000; Light House, $400,000; Coast Survey, 8180,000; Pensions, $1,500,- < 000; Total, $40,880,000. Besides these there will be an odd million or two for the bounda ry commission, special Indian negotiations, and the usual annual indefinite and perma nent appropriations, not estimated foi of $5, 500,000. These sums together will make the total appropriations of the present session amount to somewhat over fifty millions of dollars. The aggregate is arrived at without t taking into the account such contingencies as the passage of the French Spoliat ion bill, the Amistad and the Ritchie claims. The vaunted superior economy of a republican over a mo narchical government is likely soon at this rate, to be an empty boast. The great annual expenditure of the French and United States Governments is the theme of comment in tile British press, and a portion of it seems rat her delighted to think that it is likely to cost al most as much for the people to govern them. selves as it does to be governed by a monarch. CO.OPERATION !-The New York Evening Post, speculating on rumored divisions in the State, has tie following paragraph. Our rea ders will note the definition this abolition a sheet gives to Co-operation: " The Secessionists, therefore. in South C Carolina, are likely to be divided into two % faetions, the Solitarians and the Societarians I -those who are for rushing out of the Union alone, and thiose who are for houlding back till they can depart in company wvith the other States of the South, or, in plain English, are not for leaving the Union at all." JUDGE PAnsoNs delivered a charge recent ly to a gr.mnd jury in Philadelphia, in whicht he stated that the blacks.of that city supplied ~ nearly one-third of the criminals, while the , Ledger says that they are -hardly more, in , number than one-eighth of the population. It says also, that "-these carc-cennkered, fam ished aind destitute :free blacks exhibit a picture of outcast wvretchedness, at which e humanity shudders."( THE PICKENs Courier of the 15th instant, 1 says: " On yesterday a family of Swiss ar-: 5 rived at this place from Augusta. This fami- r ly, we understand, are to be followed by a number of their countrymen, whao designt settling in this district for the purpose of 'J raising sheep. These people are said to be i industrious, to have money, and to be entire- ~ ly unprejudiced against our Southern insti tutioins."
