from the acts of injustice which have
been perpetrated by the dominant
majority in Congress, but also from
the course of systematic and organized
aggression on the rights of 'the.
South which have been for years pursued
by the Northern States of this
Union, that there is a (iked and unalterable
determination on the part
of those States to rob us ot our po
litical rights and to despoil us of our
domestic institutions; and, believing,
as wo do, that their peaoeablo possessibn
and aven preservation has
become incompatible with our present
relations to the existing Confedoiacy,

ten her voyage. '1 lie? time for ma- i
king this important officer is near at i
hand, and it not already, the subject
should be thoroughly mooted, ere it
approaches, that we may be prepared.
( The present term l)ids lair to be j
one of great moment and danger to
the people, not only of this State, 1ml
the&outh generally, consequently,
much caution and judgment should ,
be exercised in placing this trust.?
It will require a man of firmness and
decision, annrsfl mdrrmnnt :>nrl /licr>ritv?
ination, acute sagacity niul untiring
viffilartcoi as well as a bold and skilful
tactician, to bo able io meet the
dangers which beset our path, and
overcome them; to fulfil the sacml
Htities which lie owes to his State,
and come up to the expectations of
those who arc looking upon South
Carolina with pride and hope, from a
distance^ and who will teach those
who infringe upon our rights, a lesson
from Scott and Manomhi?. dint
will not he soon forgotten. That
man in the Hon. Daniel Wallace.
He has long* ably and faithfully served
his State at home and abroad,
with justice to his constituents, honor
to himself, ard credit to his country.
He always acted upon'*the principle
of knowing his duty and doing it fe^r- j
lossly*, and if we are to fudge from |
his past acts and history, were he !
called on to serve his Sialc, as chief
magistrate, would, in no particular,
be found wanting.
