In another oulumn will be fbund a tter from Gen. J. 13. Kershaw, upoif ic present aspect of political afairs. is well worth a,varetul perusal, a'id c commend it to.tho consideration of very one who claims to have at least hbart tie tru. interost3 cf our tate and people. Wo note wi,h pleasaro and Fatisfae on that Oen. Kershow takes ,the ile view as ourselves in regard to io propriety of a State Convention, d [outh Carolin.Va partlipation in e Baltimoro Convoution. Ilik rea. niog is clear and conclusive, and his >nviotivns undoubtedly sincre. is devotion to the State no one can aostion, and his patriotism has been ng ago proved. It iu hardly necessary for us to say at we eudorse heartily every word the letter reforred to, and hold up e tourse of no distinguished a nan worthy to be followed by overy 3nest citizen. 'e nIlI for a stAte Con11en t1olk. Wo noiced in Saturday's Colum .1 p ipr3 a call for a State "Demo atic" Convoution, signed by certain mtlemen, slyling themselves "COU. al ExNoutive Coummittee." The dL is by no ioans autl oritative, as it convoyed simply in the shape 'of a quest. W h ile on tert aiiiing gireat resp et for ic nmembers of the '.'Central Execu ve Committeo'" 8s called, we aro-dis osed somiewhiat to doubt the actual mistenice of suc~h a body. In fact, if urI memory serves us right, the Do ocracy of this State discarded the ie old party nrimo two y'earts ago, ad called themselves Reformers. .fter the campaign of 1870, the Re >m party fizzled out, and since that me there has hbeen no general politi 11 organization in the State. In hat way, then, was the Dcmocraitic arty revived, and to what source are e indebted for the "Central Execa. v*e Commiinittee'' 1 These are ques. 1)ns pertinecnt to the c.dl f,r a Stato oinvention, and suggest to us an ap rient anomaily in State poilities. or can we see that a D)~e'eratie tate Cmnvention can assemble with ut involving the State at large in a raivo inceonsistency. 'Phe character' t' its polities for the past two years is i rfect harmony with the Liberal .cpnblican mnovement, and we con. mdi that the proposed Convention is either proper nor polhtic. We do r'e our Stato to act consistently, and at be dragged here and there by the 'orther'n Democracy. It has bieen Iready dlemlonstra ted, and radly too, iat the National Dam>oratie party in render us no assistance at all in hr present diJstressedl cond itiory, and 'e think it is about t.ime that the outh was begininlg to taLe an lade endent stanid in polities, anid consult or own true welfare, instead of yield. o the imperious dognimas of such nren as 3olmnont, Vorbees, Iroffman, anid that lass of Demiocrats, who, hiolding pub io oflices and getting rich, oare no iore for the South than for the lAjeo slafide. If their lovafer un is sin cre, we certainly wouild look for' a noro lively, manifestation of it than ro have yet seen. The Baltimore Convention is raught with great danger to -thg southern people, andc for that reason' we at'o opposed moest decidedly to thu hate being rep'resented in it.

It is evidenco cono u.--,ivo that good sempk and sound judgntt are permitted to outweigh all considerations of party affiliations and ties, and party su promacy subOdinht to the ielfara, pf our comipon country. 'the press of this State are entitled to the high est comimendationt for the inlepen. dent stand they have taken in b9pport' of Horao (Treeloy, and it would be i well for northern Democrats who are I prating so much about a separate Democratic nonifatlon, as tfio only censistent course for that party' to pursue, to obierve what the oppresed of South Carolina have to sy in tlis, matter.

So.th Carolina hai spoken thropigh her press in tones of warning to lie National Domooracyj and calls upon it to rise to a true appreciation of the nemesities of thtj pyesernt times. She cees aloud to be rcleascd f oru politi. cal slavery, and in a manner too that ought, not to.be disregarded. The Baltiiove coavent6ION. Under a cali from its National Ex ecutivo Co.nmittee, the Democratic party, thiough its dclocates, will mCet in convention in Baltimore on the 9th July next, and we fear, in doing so wili <o umit the greatest blunder of its whole career, un!ess political tricksters and schemers are kept oul of its coulcils, auld in this latter event we look for the accomplishment of some good to the country at large. As a general rulo representative bodies are miarpilated by wire-pull era a lid hanger, cmn, and its action con trolled accordiagly. We have a pre zaentimcnt that this will be the case at Baltimore. There aire a certain claiss of meu in thu D)emocratic party who u-e every effort to shapeC its polic'y toi subserve their o,wn private ends, un mindful of the interests and welfare of the whoile people. Tfhese meen gen erailly manage to work their way into the national cornvent-ionis, or exert .a very. powerful outside influence. The flno mination of Judget Chase was de. [feat ed *.in 1863 by this elique, and through their instrumentaity Ifora tio Seymour put forward, a~ good -hon. ost D)emocrat, but v''ithi no national reputation, and without any strength outside of New York. We believe that if Ch,aso had been, the nominee at that time, he would to-day ho Presi dent otf the United Stabe.s, instead of the '"no policy"' mian Grant. .It is high time that; the Democrat ic party wore beginniing to correct its past errors, and fellow out its real deCstiniy. For the past ten years, it huas been like a stranded vorncel at see, without masts or ruddier, .r iftinig about, and blowvn hither and thither by every breeze. D'uriog all that time it has failad to reach its truc haven, andl is even now in grea t dIan. ger of going to pieceu at Baltimore. Ini other worda we e.tpress it as our can did conviction that in caso a straight party t ioket is nom inatedl at Bailti more, such action will be the death knell of thte party. Entertaining this op iion,1 we regard( then assem-t b!ing of the Democracy at Paitimore as unwise, injudicious, and per;ni cLou)Is in mtany re.peotu. -Wet hav e a! roady inidicated our obijectionis to a separato hiomination, and our unqumali. tied opposition thereto. WVe are firm-' ly of the belief that it is the duty of Demnoe~ta everySwhere to support the Liberal Republican movement, and do everything in their -power to frus trato a nomination at .Baltimore, oth 4er than the endorsoment of G reeley anii Brown. Wo observe an i'utimation in the Columbia Carolintian that the "State Djemocratic Executive Committee" Ipropose balling a State Convention in the enttly part of next -mo6ith, for the purpose of,nelooting.4elegates to the Badlhne'ro< gathring. in tem ee kg#grn4:such co 4initte thi Stat In tie seegad, if pte n xe on is oalled,A.'e trus t wil ihow a goodsensolf V havin 1othing to do with Baltimore politi ,ally.
