Resolved, That the Governor of the State he re quested to forward a copy of these resolutions t the Governors of all the Sta.s of this Coufederacy and to our .Senators and Re presentatives in Con gress. And now, to cap the climax of this day's resolu tions, road mo the resolutirts of Mr. ELLIorT: Whereas the Convention of this State, in 1852 declared that the.State was amply justified in dis solving at once all political connection with he eo-States; aud whereas she was restrained frot exercising her sovereign right. to do so, in defer enco to the opinions of her sister States of th South; and whereas, sine that time, there ha ueen inflicted on her people wrougs, still more fl grant and insulting-still more degrading thu those complained of-and as the sentimes* of hi people is now unanimously for aotion ; be It ther fore, Resolved, That the Governor is authorized au empowered to call to his aid two citizeus froi each Coungressional District of the Stat*, who wi binijelf sball constitute a cummittee of safety; th the said coiuwittee shall be authoriard to teu muunicat with and enter into negotiationd atl league with the Governors and people of tho ath slavebolding Stutem who are prepared to 1ini with us in repelling the encroachments ua, pt ,tho.South by the Abolition party, which by b come ihe prniinezt p..wer iu the uon-vlaomholdit States o.f this inion. v.-.reed. That when the Committee of Safe aoicirur t~o inv ue the Legisla tire, to taku ar action that shall be necessary to'protoct the hon and secure the safety of this State. Resolred, That the Governor is authorized, behalf of this State, to invite the Legislatures slaveholding States to appoint imilar committe to carry out the objects had in view. Resolved, That the Committee of Safety, wh in the actual discharge of duty, shall be entitl to receive the pay and mileage now allowel Iet hers of the Legislature, and that their term of du shall expire with the election of the next tov nor, unless sooner dissolved by the Legislature. Was it not PATRICK HUc'xaer that said, "the ba tle is not to the strong alone but to the vigilai the active and the brave." Mr. ELLIOTT, it will seen, proposes to cover the " vigilant" itart of t great Virginian's remark. I confe.s I like all resolutions as well as I cau like ay resolutivi which is not, by the way, a very absorbing aff tion in my own individual case. Still, I like the It has been our way in South Carolina. We i all "to the manner born." We have become I hituated to them, until they are in some sort i cessary to the health of the body-politic. But tI time it is a thing to be desired, that we make ge in deeds what we proclaim in words. And fr this idea, a corollary may be deduced: Let Legislature go no furthcr ;n resolutions~s that ti are certain the pe'pl' will go in action. It is tl only that we can retain the respect of surround States. To-day, various (Commis.<ioners in Equity ii elected,-Mr. Z.W. CAtn wtx, lur Edlgetield.

Unless the action of the Cincinnati 4Conven on appointing Charleston as the next iPlae o iesting for the development of Democratic Atret y, be formally abjured and renounced by the outhern Democracy, good faith requires tinat the onvention shall meet and organize as hi therto, 'here are no indications that the Southern . mo racy will pursue this course of renunciation.. it is about to appoint delegates to Charleston' with ut hinting at any such perversion of the purpo es of the Convention.

And even if any one, or two, a en three of them did, the Convention woul itill proceed to its work and offer to the country I Democratic nomination. But the object of the Xercury's reasoning-ma: be, to diasuade the people of South Carolina from participating, at all, in the next Democratic C9u reation. This, at any rate, is the tendency of it views. If such be the purpose and aim of ou contemporary, we vouture to suggest one or tw ouidrations per cantru. 1.

Will you say that the Democratic par is not now the strong organitation it was then, if strong, not conservathe of the rights of t South ? Let us call to mind, that in 1844, as w as now, it seemed as though id great party wt going to pieces. Did not the danger appear ev more iniminont, when the Baltimnore Conventi< amidst much bitterness of feeling, ballotted ne: ly fifty times without a result, and the enemies the Party began to rejoice over its supposed dom fall. The South then too proclaimed the Noth< Democracy unsound upon the slavery Issue connected with the admission of Texas. A yet the party, after all, united with perfect enti siasm on JaMKs K.

And is It not to be expected that Vin .ert yet m.*me in the coming Conventi upon her own soil, i'a her own high-toned and telligent metropolis ? 2. llut again, the selection of Charleston as lilnce of Ruecting was in itself a compliment tender of afliliation and symplathy bsy the Doi C ratie party. This would not perhaps be ript to be considered, had it not been that the resi the South warmly participated in this .marl respect towardts our State anid eagerly jumped the applointmnent.

Thoso letters purported to como . from a person in great distress, who had already experienced the bounty of the deceased, and, I while thanking him for the aid so afforded, most earnestly implored a further remittance (generally . of 101. we believe), periaps also with a distinct I reference, in some cases, to an implied promise on his part to send more money. Such letters were r well calculated to impose upon sympathising, un I suspecting relatives, still suffering under their be t reavement; and the apparent fact that the de ceased had already made remittances to the wri ter naturally precluded the idea that any formal investigation was neeassary in a case where the a claim had been practically admitted, especially as . it appeared to be one that would not admit of de Iy. The result, doubtless, was that several per sons were victimised before the exposure took r place ; and even now there may still be victims to o this fraud; but the exposure (or the success) has led to the adoption of a still more cunning and di lAbolical mode of obtaining remittances--a mode which is at once a foul libel on the dead, and In-. t alets a cruel wound upon the livin;, especially ul',)n bereaved widowr, mnu.y of whom would probably comply with the demand in silence : $ithr:4ativ invytsatitwu rather-than !ave the air fane of their 'husbands tarnished.- 'buch a ir imtter now lies before us. 3 A few weeks ago there appeared in the list of deaths in the Time, the name of a certain. country reutlema n, who left a widow, but without children.
