The Meeting on Bale Day. The regular meeting of tho District Southern Rights Association came off on last SaledAy, nmiilst a large concourse of members nnd citizens. It it bad been generally known over tbo District that Mr, Bukt would have been present to address bis constituents upon tbo political movements of the State and the General Government, we.no doubt would Jiave witnessed an immense gathering of tho good people of our District,. As it was, our oyes were greeted by a fnrge and respecta bJe assemblage, thai paid great attention to tho prolonged discussion which was excited by the rcpoijb of the District delegation to the Charleston Convention, made in pursuance of a previous resolution of the Association. " Edwahd Noble, Emj., on the part of the delegation, reported tho proceedings and results of the Convention, and in a brief and lucid manner explained the object of the address and resolutions, hud' the effect they were exercising in the South favorable to the great Southern cause, -lie dwelt.upon '\o fact that the Charleston Convention was incanl lo b^, .is it turned out to be, a meetjug, to harmonize tlio conflicting opinions then somewhat prevalent^in the State, which tended to* divide into two separata parties' the great Resistance mo^ment, upon lite happy success of which the safety of our Southern institutions and Southern honor tnainly depended. That this Convention was not a prescriptive body, or wished to effect a party triumph, or injure the great Southern cause, he nointed tn ilia Mr. 13uti.er and Mr. I>a?tnwki.l and others subsequent to that Convention; So satisfied were they of the impolicy and bad effect* of opposing the action of this body, that they Imve refused to be the leaders in an'undertaking to divide and sow discord in the ranks of the resistance, movement of South Carolina.

Mr. Burt and the October Meeting. Mis. Euitok:?In tho meeting of the Southern Rights Association of last sale-day, our member to Congress was requested to cxtricr.te himself from tho inconsistency of his present position, with that of the October meeting. To effect that purpose, tho Honorable member asserted that the question of separate State action was not made at that meetiug, except that Mr. Nance embraced the remark in his Bpeecli, that he " would rather seo the Constitution torn in strands nnd South Carolina declared independent, than to see her submit." Now, sir, propose to show that the question was distinctly set forth by all the speakers, Mr. Burt with the rest, that it was not only ?nM3entally remarked, but boldly advocated' by><Lo meeting, and embraced in its resolutions. From the proceedings of that meeting we take the following extracts: "Mr. Nance, after a full ancLfaithful picture of the wrongs perpetrated by,,the North upon our people, - J J 1- ? 1 * conciuuea oy an eamcai exhortation to resistance, an'd ih' the event that other States failed to movt; South Carolina should act alone; advocated secession, a prompt, absolute and unconditional secession, and if necessary,, that we should sea! our devotion to liberty .with our blood !M Col. PiOKBNs held this language, speaking of the General Goveniiflltft: "It was the governmentirf lawless, fanatical, qnd despotic majoriiy. * To< the monstrous- i njustice of its Jegislalion,we should resist; at all hazards. Drdw tho sword and throw the scabbard to the wjnds-r-prepare for the contest, gird on our armour fortheconflict, and if*fall -Wo muil?fdilrVjith oil+ feet to the foe, and, our.fctgs.4o heaven-P*- IIo spoke in high hopes andC ei&ouraging tetmfe: of onhsister States of Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Mississippi.He recommended a M Cdngrese or Con-: vention of the Southern States, with delegates appointed by the l^gislatarea, under iha broad seal* of the States, withauthority to each delegation, to bindljy its action, the State.it represented. If only Iwo States would make the itene, let them do itr^-if three, it would be all the better?-but if all the other States fail to act, South Carolina loill decide the question for herself. If she hat to stand alone she will do it. lie ac nuv<Ticu^u uio uHOgiuuto Ullljf MJ OOUIQ Carolina, where lier star rises and stands, there lie "would rally, though it be over fields of battle and blood!" Mr. Burt said, " The people of the South were aliens to the Government, the flag of the United. States , is no proteoiion rto our property. We should look to our own safety. Dissolving.the Union was no question for us to consider, it was already dissolved, we must-look out for new safe-guards."? Spoke encouragingly of Georgia; did not believe sho would back out. Mississippi, he was "certain would be right,?she would-be a gallant friend. If two States should sep arrtte, not a gun would be fired, the North wouldirtipltfro us back; she had a great interest in a preaenratioo of the Union.' It was worth #120,000,000 annually, to the North. If all our hopes of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida should bo disappointed, tot mtfst not give up; South Carolina can tyriAg on tht issue. The cause of Slavery is (he common cause of thq South, and if the issue is made, other States will wheel into the line. If we remain in the Union,we must give up our property ; if we submit, the inevitable result will be" a" war betweenIhe races. We might choose* which we would m&K? our antagonist, uw while man of the North; or the Negro of the Soutfy ; for one be preferred to fight the unnatural monitor* wjip^were rea?y,to incite our slave# to a promiscuous carafe.. He was identified with South Carolina, Wherever the took her stand, sinkor swim, be would be with her." Tlie most important of. the, resolutions passed, was the last in the series, containing this InDgunge : - ' ' v-r Resolvtd, that we ate ready and willing t? co-operate with any one or more of our eater States, in ahy fficitnl mode of redress that they, or any one of them, may in a reasonable time propose;bu t in the event (Kit no efficient remedy is reoommondod by any of her eister States, South Oarolinawil! then determine far fotseM^tfee mode and measure of Tedrees.

Wo are credibly informed ihat the resolutions were submitted to Mr. Burt, before they were offered to the meeting, and that he either approved, or did not object to them. Be that as it may, what could he mean when he says, " all hope failing of the other States, we must not. give up; South Hamltno /ton An " v*?u vu?*g vm ?uv laouof nuu olio having made the issue and tbo cnuso being common to the South', that '* other States will wheol into line." Can common sense so torture 4r pervert this languago as to make it read u Southern co-operation f" If he did not intend to recommend separate State action in his speech; if be did not mean to occupy a common platform with the other speakers, we hold him culpable for not having dissented from those gentlemen. They were addressing his constituency, and it was bi? duty, as the rep rescntative of tlio citizens of Abbeville, not to suffer them mislead. He. heard .those gentlemen ; he spoke after them, and if they were leading/his constituency to a.precipice of ^ disaster and ruin^M they were'advocating a doctrine of "suicidaln poliey, ofumdd iicaa uuu iTisunny, according to tQ6 Hamburg theory, why as a faithful sentinel and guardian of our interest did he not sound the alarmupon the approach of danger!?

The aoouracy, for instance, with which all the classes appeared to be grounded in the primary elements of their studies, and the thoroughness of their knowledge in them so far as they bad progressed, were not only gratifying to the parents, guardians, and friends of learning present, but were evidences of their competency, as well as-of the fidelity, with: which the Faculty bad dia -J Ai.1. <- - umigcu t|ieir uuues. I was particularly pleased with the elocutionary exercises of the young men. They showed that more than the ordinary attention bad been bestowed upon thw department, and very, correctly. Our systems of teaching now, are more deficient in this than in anything. .Most students, when they mount the rostrum, put off whatever of nature is in them, and assume, in look, voice, auu gesture, ?u? fcuey nave Observed ID others, and thus, pot. uufrequently, present a spectacle, not very pleasant to%be seen by their hearers, and certainly not very creditable to themselves.
