Bad Policy. We must confess that there is nothing oV :?. political character which grates so harshly upon our ours, and sickens the very soul within us, as to hear Southern men. or men living at the South, prophe? sying its degradation and ruin. There are some who assume a surpri? sing degree of confidence in their opinion, that the days of our independence arc numbered, and that our honor, rights and interests are soon to he ontonibcd, and "the stone placed at the door of the sep ulcher and no angel will be commissioned to roll it away." That such sentiments are honestly cntertaiucd^by some good and true men. we cannot doubt, yet in other cases we fear the wish is only fath? er to the thought, and its expression but a pseudo regret which covers the real sen? timents of a base and traitorous heart.? If there was oven a certainty that the Southern, especially the Cotton States, would submit to the election and inaugu ^^Hm^of_a_]31a(-lc Republican President, is it the part of wisdom or sound policy, tQ .advertise our enemies in advance of so humiliating a fact ? Wc think not. It would be better to maintain a profound silence?to say nothing by .which 01 rj en emies ..could take courage, and be strength? ened in their iniquitous war against the people of the Sout h and its institutions.? We should rather let events cast their shadows before, and prepare as best we may for an issue which is inevitable, and , which must be met within n very few mon.ths, or at farthost"at the end of an? other Presidential term?assuming a most improbable and hopeless hypothesis. To those who advocate submission to the rule of a Black Republican President, wc have no word of argument or advice to give. We would not spend time in such a use? less task; for towards such advocates of Union and dishonor, we could only exer? cise whatever remained of an originally small stock of patience, long since ex? hausted. It is unfortunate that even one such men can be found in South Carolina to-chry, and that he?although, personal? ly, a gentleman of estimable character, and of high and honorable impulses? should have allowed his infatuation and blind devotion t > a Union, 'now only in jiamc, to give courage and support to the .enemies oi' the Constitution, of his own jJtonie and dearest interests. .Manly in? dependence and Hrm consistency of char actar, we have always admired ; but it is ?possible that even such traits as these may be abused. There is such a thing as a contumacious consistency, which robs that noble attribute of all its noble gran? deur. May it not be possible that the ad? vocacy now or" Union and submission at ali hazards, places one m"stich a category? At no period within our observation has tlu> South been nearer a unit, and if the present, or approaching crisis, is allowed to pass by unimproved, all we fear will be hopelessly ami forever lost. The cry of the glorious Union, under Black Re? publican rule, will be worse than -the bugle blast of the robber band," and to hear our own public men advising sub? mission now, is "'snuffing treason on the tainted gale." Kvcry clement of success is still within oni'grasp. .Must we wait iiflffl the destroying fiat of the author of the irrepressible conflict is accomplished? We Agree with a cotemporary that, "if Lincoln is elected President and the South submits, it wKl place a mark of disgrace and shame upon every Southern man. < and the 'death-knoll of slavery will sound throughout the South." We do hope the South will not hear anything of the kind, that her- own government, her own mon? ey, be used for her shame and destruc? tion.?Canulen Jour mil. Trade OF CriARLESTOx.?We are grati? fied to learn of the success of direct impor? tations in Charleston. The Mercury of yesterday says: In ?tiaiihg through Huynea&uHectiiig Streets recently, our attention has been directed to the immense number of bales, cases and casks of merchandise of direct importation. Our merchants really seem to be in earnest, and. from conversations, we find that our importer^ have been en? abled to lay their stocks down at prices much below what they have been in the habit of paying Northern houses for the same class of goods. They can now com? pete with other markets, and we trust the interior trade will continue to patronize their own people instead of enriching Nor? thern fanatics, Avho really have no sympa? thy for us or our institutions. The fall trade has opened very briskly, and merchants who have visited our city are much pleased with the stock of goods exhibited tothem. If the direct importers are to be encouraged, and they certainly should be, oar neighbors of Georgia, Ala? bama and Tennessee should help to grease the wheels. We are sure none willregre' a .visit to Charleston. r.-O Serious Affray.?Wc learn from the Greonvilie correspondence of the Charles? ton Mercury, that a difficulty occurred at the Furman University on Saturday last, between two of the Students. Messrs. Da vant and Scaife. Revolvers were drawn, and Mr. Davant's snapped several times vrftHoitt going oft'. Mr. Scaife fired three times, one balL grazing Mr. Davant's ab? domen, the other lodging in the left breast nc-o- 'he shoulder. The wound is not con? sidered dangerous, though the ball uasnot been found. The Next Legislature. "A Constituent" writing to the Char? leston Mercury earnestly recommends the following suggestions : First: Until after the fall election, avoid even the discussion of the modus operandi of resistance. Second: Still more studi? ously eschew any such issue in the elec? tions themselves. Third: Let every man who himself realizes the importance of the crisis, use Iiis utmost efforts to make others think and feel as he does. And lastly: Let all earnest men in the State ?let the Press, particularly, everywhere ?uuite in urging upon the people that they should demand the services, in the next Legislature, of their wisest and best men?to he sent, in the true spirit of rep? resentative government, uninstruetedand untrammelled, to "take care that the Re puhlic receives no detriment." Who, up? on such an appeal, in such a crisis, dare refuse? Tlio position rises, on occasions like this, to such dignity, that in the lan? guage of Mr. Lowndes, it should be "nei? ther sought or declined." Every district in the Slate has its dis? creet and reliable men. Good sense and integrity, thank God, are not rare; and we still have amongst us some who are men of approved wisdom and patriotism ?men fit to consult on a nation's destiny. From these two classes should the ;incxt Legislature" he selected. Let us have the right sort of men. "Principles, not men," is a delusive cry, and serves hut to mislead. As John Randolph pithily said, ??principles without men was lice love without women." "Principles and men" is tho true motto. It is not the man who professes most, who answers questions mosl promptly, or whd is most plentiful in pledges, who is most to lie trusted in trying limes. Look to his antecedents! Has lie shown, in his past life, he loved the Slate more than his own selfish interest.? Has he shown a sound judgment and a brave heart ? if yea. and the general hearing of his poli? tics accords with public sentiment, it is enough. We do not ask whether (en years ago he was Secessionist, Co-opera tionist, Union man. Whig or Democrat. Still less, upon this great Southern issue, whether, in the frivolous disputes, confin? ed to South Carolina, he was Convention or Anti-Convention. Was he honest then Is In- honest now ? And does he. at this lime, believe that submission to sectional Black Republican ruh' is disgrace and eventual ruin ? These should be the only* test quest ions. A Legislature thus com? posed, will speak the voice, not of a party ?not of a mere numerical majority?hut, really and truly, the voice of South Car? olina. -* Mork Railroads.?A new railroad pro? ject is on foot in Lexington District. The Flay says that application will ho made to the next Legislature for a charter for a railroad from Lexington to or near Col Ittmhia. Meetings were held last year, and the sum of'?75,000 pledged to the Co lumiiiaand Hamburg Road. Thatamount. says the Flay, would have been doubled had the hooks been opened; but tho Com? missioners appointed to open hooks at Lexington failed to get the other Com? missioners along the line to act in concert, and so they were not opened. "Not content to remain forever isolated from till the rest of the world.' she is now going to work, and the Flay says if the charter is granted a grand effort will he made to build a road, and it thinks it will he a suc? cess. .Meetings have been held at Ridge, in l'Mgelield District, and resolutions favor? ing the Hamburg and Columbia Railroad, and providing for the opening of hooks for subscriptions to the capital stock, weri' passed. A barbecue and pic nie tit Bethel Church, on the 18th inst., was al? so provided for. Several a!-.; ?mi prac. I t'.eal speakers to address the meeting. -^_ Af a meeting recently held in Atlanta. Ga., Mr. Yaucey devoted one port ion of a speech he was making to a defence of him? self againt the charge of disnnionism. The Tntelligcnccr says: -1 He referred to a remark of Mr. Wright at a Douglas meeting here the other eve? ning, in which he (Mr. Wright) is said to have compared Mr. Yanccy, in going back to (he Baltimore Convention, having se? ceded from Charleston, to -a growling, cringing spaniel.' 'If.' said Mr. Vancey, ?he had uttered that within my hearing, or if he ever utters it again, ami it comes to my knowledge, there will ite a growling, cringing, whipped spaniel, and that span? iel will he Augustus R. Wright.' [The most vociferous applause, which lasted many minutes, attended this announce? ment; and the fire flashed from Mr. Yau? cey's eye. as from that of an infuriated lion, as he stamped his foot, and thus re? pelled tin.' slander."] -4?. Take Care. Girls.?The Daily True Democrat, published at Augusta,Georgia, slates (hat young girls wearing straw hats with little bells pendant from the brim. will, in the short space oft wo months, become cross-eyed. Instances have oc? curred of malformation of the eyes caus? ed by the wearing of these bells. -.0?_ E. S. P. Bellinger, Esq., having been nominated as a candidate to fill the va? cancy occasioned in the State Senate by the death of Hon. Lewis O'Bryan, Mr. B. publishes a card declining to become a candidate. Aurora Borealis?Alarm of fire.? A few minutes past eleven o'clock last night, the Orphan House Alarm Bell toll? ed an alarm of fire, which, as usual, caused the instantaneous turn out of the Fire De? partment. The alarm was caused by a most brilliant display of the Northern Lights, which, notwithstanding the light of the moon, cast such a brilliant red glare over the northern hemisphere, as to de? ceive the practised eyo of many a fireman. Some of the engines proceeded as far up as Line street, when the apparent tire seemed as far off as when they sorted, and the chase was given up. The phenomenon, for a few minutes? when the alarm was given?was really beautiful, and was well calculated to de? ceive a drowsy watchman.?Charleston jfcrcury.
