AVe have allowid a free expression of .lows on the Confer nee Kansas Act. on the re-opening of the Vfrican Slave Trade, and on the powerful pCOeh of Senator llummmd with the o.mdii m uf the S.)uth and lu;r prospects for the uture. But wo have eschewed all division in such issues. This course has been purmod. because the tide of events is surely Iriving ns together, and wi> are satisfied that lifterences in South Carolina in regard to the jonerul (ioveriiinent and tlio North will be ibliterated bv time. Tliev are eoninnim-'il athor than real ?mutton* ofspccuhition rallisp than fact. There are events before us .hat will unite all true men of the South ; Hid wo desire that South Carolina, by her inion and the moral weight she Ima over joasessed in tho counsels of the South, resulting from her unanimity of opinion and souJuctt shall hour her part in the drama of he future, whatever it he. Some of our ending men havo confidence in the Deinoiratie party of the North?triors have none, ^ome suppose that lilaek Republican sceionnlism is declining in pow^r?others that t is increasing.

I'he crisis that will settle those conjecture>r deductions is near at hand. What reason s there, then, fur pressing tlioso differences if opinion between those who agree in priniple and who go together in ; olicy ? Why hould it bo sought to raise issues and conditions 011 such mat tors? On tho great esential measures before tho country wo are igroed. Our public men will nil opp<>*o in iVashiugton tho inorcaso of tho Tariff for prooction, appropriations for Internal Improveuonts, and anti slavery in every shape and brm.

They will have to seek tlie union >f the'South on Stato Kight ground*. Awl hey will stand together, wo doubt not, uniod in tho light. It'the Black Republicans ftro defeated in Congress, and defeated in their effort, at the text Presidential election, to grasp the powir of tho (loneral (ioverinnent for the noomplishment of their purposes. South Ourilina will fully participate and unite1 ly reoico in their defeat. On tho contrary, should hoy be sueeessful, w? hav e a right to sun)os3 that thoso who are united in principle vill ho united in measures of redemption and eourity. The State has distinctly marked >ut hoi* policy, ami it is wise to presume that will l>o rnitoil. la it wi.se to esinlilisli lorsuiml antagonisms ou future speculative livisions?
