abant* to fill thalr ator** for th? Fdl aad
Winter trade, it ia to be bopad (bat tfcay
will be mora troa to tfc* !nt?r*at of their ,
country than to go North to buy good* (
Wo hope they will giv* their patronage to
(Southern eitlea, and at tha aaraa time giva
praferance to thaa* who ar* direct import- !
srs, for by to doing they give encouragement
to th? importing interact, and they increacc |
the number of importer*, which will erent- ,
ualiy ctiaolc us *o purchase goods M cheep .
in Southern cities ss in the North. By so
doing we build up our neglected cities,
which should be the sim and pride of all.
W%Jrust that Southern merchant* may unitedly
discard the idea of going North for
the purchase of geoda We feel confident
that all who beva tha welfare of thelrconn
try et heart, will not g* among our enemies ,
to buy their goods, aa sucli a course will (
tend to Invite a continuance of aggression, j
Can it be that in the face of innumerable <
outrages, committed tipon the South and her (
Institutions, that merchants will continue to |
patronize the North! Let ns but tnrn our <
ntt ntion to the State of affaira in Texas, ]
filled as it is with Northern emissaries, sent
by * aid societies," (who fatten upon South- i
ern patronage,) with torch and fcnife in ]
hand, desolating the country, all of whioh is
aided by the continued patronage of South- ]
xtr- >
v. u uiMvnmuew nc nr<; nnmie, when we I
contemplate the preeent state of attain^ to I
look with any allowance upon a man who ]
would in any way patronize the North, ei- '
ther Ly the purchase of poods or otherwise, 1
and we contend, and feel warranted in tho '
conclusion, that, any merchant who would '
go North for the purchase of goods, with '
the present state of things staring him In 1
tlie face, shows cither a cnrcless indifference v
or a want of that fidelity that all true men ,
should have for their country. Should our ^
fathers or brothers go North snd purchase (
goods, we should bo indifferent as to whether
they ever returned again to Sonthcrn '
roil, but would rather they should never get
i nek, but remain Ju the midst of the corruption
which they contribute to sustain. We
can not what subterfuges men may resort ]
to in justification of going North to buy
c?>odst or to spend their summers?the solo- ^
tion is found in the Almighty Poller, and 1
the want, of that fidelity for their country's f
Interests which they should have. R is ^
truly alarming to sec planters of the South I
in great and increasing .nnmbers, going
North to spend their anmtners and money. '
when they could be fanned by the bracing j,
and balmy breer.es of Southern mountains;
and, strange to say. In variably you will find ^
these planters, after having returned South,
nte the first to deride those with whom they j,
lind associated. By-the-by, should such (
characters lie fortunate enough to fall heir |
t? a cent of tar and feathers, while on their f
Northern pleasure tour, no true Southerner c
wo .Id complain, a* we know true Southern
m n are always willing to 'J render unto f
Cr sar the things that are Caesar's," especial* j (
y when they ore truly merited. (
W# would cell on all the true people of <
11 ? South to pive their niil in the one and 1
Treat effectual cause of non-intercourse?
We fee! that such would hrinpour Northern
< ncirtics to a se nse of their dependence upon
the South; and if our merchonta prove reel
emit to their trust, the poople have it in
their power to hrinp them to a aenaeof their '
I'u'v hy discontinuing to pntronize an eh as 1
are so wedded to Northern cities. Admit- c
tinp they could pet an article n few eenta
lower, it is the ditty of the people to discard
oil soeh as will patronise our enemies. His- '
? rv | roves that all great 'nd benefic-ini b
iiehievemcnts have been attended with sacr
fie<-s, and in proportion to the ninpnitnde *'
i-t the cause will the sncrifiee he. We eon- M
tend that the times demand that all true
ppn should come square up to our country's
Interest, aod force the non intercourse sya- ^
t< to. even to the peril of having to wear the
?dd fashioned homespt.n. We would lie dc- 11
lighted to see such an introduction South. b<
Milhli pmise Is due our noble-hearted etu- i
unit* for their patriotic example in this re j ^
rpect. and wc hope tliey may continue in [
the nohlc route. And aa we have faith in "
|I>i- ami fidelity of the ladies, wc '
would invite old and young to unite with J
iii? in the great cause, and follow the exam- ,
j io yet hy our noble young men. We should ?|
fivl indignant at the idea of having on our c
I'- rtuni anything made by the hands of those f
who would with one hand clothe us with f]
g.uidy apparel, and with the other apply a
the knife of the assassin. j
These arc not fancied picture? or notions, v
but stubborn facts, standing ont in bold reli<
f. that all who will may see them. We a
are landing on the quicksands of time, he- k
t enth which rolls an insatiable pit of de- t]
rtmctiou, which will sooner or inter hurst
ii|H.n us, nod without timely and precnit- p
tionury action on the part of the South will
? ngulph us in one common rulnj hence every
good citizen should he up and doing, ri
sparing no pnins in producing a healthy in- A
tluence around him. What would be our G
history to-day if our forefathers and mother* la
had stopped to.count the- coat of the revolu- 1 vi
lion? All praise to their names for their [ t!
bold defence of their right*. They did not ?!
stop to count what the consequences would si
be, or what privations they would have to
undergo, or wherewithal they should be a
clothed or fed; nor did they say, (as we l>
have heard it said, that we cannot get along
without articles made North,) we cannot do n
without the many articles furnished hy our ^
mother country. No; it was liberty or ^
death?all their right* or none, Such were 81
the principles that actuated the sagea of c'
"id. Have wc become so degenerate as to ?
disgrace the blood of onr revolutionary ^
aires? We truat not, and feel that the time ''
is at hand that will try men'a souls, and if ?
there thould rhence to ho in our midet IhoM 11
who would sell their birth right for * mew
of pottoge, wo feel proud to kuow thnt we (

Fioht Between Ben. C. Yakcy, Jr.,
Esq., and Col. J. J. Skibkls.?A ren;ontre
oeenrred at 4* Lynn's corner," in
rnr city, Rbout noon yesterday, between |
Ren. C. Ynncy, Jr., Esq., (son Of Hon.
VV. L. Yancy.) and Col. J. J. SeibcL, of
ibe u Confederation." The facts are
briefly these: Young Mr. Ynncy met
Col. Seibels and said to him that he
bad grossly slandered his father in the
* Confederation "?that ho came to ro:
rent the insult offered to him?and that
be warned him to defend himself. Mr.
Vnncv then struck at Col. Seibols repeatedly,
wiih an ordinary sired cane,
but tho Col. kept his large, open umbrella
in front, so ns to fend ott, nn<i
push him forward, evading any hard
blows, until the coveting was knocked
roin die umbrella, and nt Inst used the
ratidle as quite an efficient weapon.?
\ few blows and a scuffle ensued, and
he parlies were separated by a policenan.
Botli came off bruised, and Col.
Seibels blooded and worsted, by a severe
cut across the eye and temple.?
Dur young friend Yancy, although in omparably
smaller than the huge
4 Belgian giant," was tut slightly hurl
find boro lrmself gallantly in the fight.'

mfnir and inaccurate account by telejraph,
of the rencontro between 13cn.
J. Yanev and the senior e<liior of this
>aper. The dispatch snye, among other
hings, that "he (13. O. Y.) attacked
ourself) with a cane, inflicting some
evcre blows, and causing the blood to
low freely," ?fcc. Similar misropresenaliens
of the aflair, have, also, appear d
in oilier papers.
We would icfer to the testimony ta
cen in the case before the Mayor of the
ity on yesterday, the first part of which
ppears in our columns this morning,
or a fair and conect account of the
lifliculty.
It will be seen that we received but
i single blow ? the first one timed at
is while our umbrella was up?and af
ter that, that we rapidly advanced upon
aur assailant, who retreated in various
ivavs to keep out of our reach; that we
taught and threw him upon the ground,
itul had him completely in onr power,
vhen we were separated. As to the
' wound*," v o received hut tlie one blow, j

The drawing is especially note-worthy, as (
