TImn m bo longer any possible doubt
ooaoernfag the President's view* on ae
enation. In conversing to-day with a
gentleman oftjits city, he took strong
ground agaiaat the Southern movement,
lie declared that he did not believe that
the great West would ever permit the
mouths of the Mississippi Hirer to beheld
by a foreign power. "South Caro- i
lina." said he, 44 wishes to enter into a <
conflict with me, and, upon the ehvd- <
ding of (he first droo of blood, to drag |
the other States into the movement of ]
dissolution^" He acknowledged that i
the South had suffered great wrongs at
the hands of the North, but thought
that tbe compncts between tlieui should ,
not bo broken until reasoning and re- |
flection had been exhaua'ed. lie would
first appeal to the North for justice, and (
if it should be denied, then, said ll e
President, 441 ,aw with them." Notwithstanding
-his condemnation of secession,
Mr. Buchanan has not yet given
the slightest indication of the course
ho proposes to adopt when it takes
place. But he has pointedly authorised
the denial of the statemeut that he favors
secession.
The Administration still holds in
abeyance the resignation of the Federal
officials in South Carolina. To-day the
resignation of United States Marshal
Hamilton, of Charleston, was received
and placed upon file.
The President to-day dispatched a
special messenger, with full instructions
for Gen. Harney to proceed with all
possible haste against Mntitrmmorv. nml I

A Stort Spoiled.?We have noticed
in the Black Republican papers a highly
colored account of tlie treatment of
a tnan who had been driven from Georgia
on suspicion of being an abolition
ist. He and his family had arrived in
Boston, and appeals for charity on their
behalf were being made. The Savannah
Jiepublican explains the matter as
fo'lows:
; 44 We know nothing personal of Ribero,
but on inquiry are told that he is
a mulatto, and has been convicted, on
indubitable evidences, of instilling into
the minds of other negros in this \icinity
that Lincoln is lo free them when
lie ascends tho Presidential chair, and
inciting tlit-m to lebellion and murder.
In this he was detected, ami in a sparsely-settled
section twelve men were summoned
to attend as a jury, and 011 tiial,
ten of them were in favor of executing
Lim on tho spot, hut more merciful
counsels prevailed, and he was privately
sent off. with the punishment above
stated. His Boston friends may take
llibero to their bosoms if they please,
and make a martyr of him, hut the
sentiment here cannot be checked, and
all such inierferers will be similarly
treated?self preservation demands it."

A slave was first arrested for making
sundry assumptions of freedom, " now
that Massn Lincoln was elected," but
expiewsing penitence. and stating that
ho was "in liquor at tho time," he was
discharged. Afterwiwds. a free negro
made revelations to the effect that the
negroes from the upper and lower ends
of the county were to meet at Lancaster

lion. A. G. Mngrnth, having been introduced

Shall we look to the Supreme Court? A*

Where is hope then ! It lain ourselves!?
How? By coming out of the Union?by
immediate secession 1 Can we secede!?
The State is our political mother, and on entering
the Union rceerved to herself the
exercise of every sovereign right. Hie
right of secession is an individual right?
it may be exercised by one man or twenty
men; why not, then, .by a State ! But, will
it tie peaceable I or, la it a hostile remedy ?
There is no power existing in the Federal
Government to coerce a State; as well
might they take that venerable man who
presides over this meeting and hang him to
a tree m a traitor, as to attempt coercion.?
Tliere may he war, it is true, hut by the rery
act the right* of liberty are shown to lie defunct.
Tie mtrr dtuial of (he right is sufficient
cause for its exercise I But, can the
Slate support herself! We can with ail wc
have contributed to the General Government,
and he independent, without taxing
our citzens. Can she support herself if invaded
? That he would not answer; but if
not aide to do tids, she would send men into
the field who would never bring back
the news of defeat. Ail we have to say to
the General Government is, " Peace or war
?onr rights without your choice 1"
In the other Cotton States the struggle will
be as to who shall get out first. Suppose
the State linlts, what effect will it have on
the other States! But there is so fear of
tlivt. The people of South Carolina are wait
mg lor uui one thing, and that U?the first
day of the Stata Convention ! There is everything
bright before us; behind us is no
thing but darkness and horrible misery.
lie congratulated himself that iu this issue
the South was distinguished as having
abided by and upheld the doctrines of Christianity;
the North, on the other hand, had
denounced and repudiated the lfible.
South Carolina, although she suffered
equally with her sister Southern States, liad
her own private griefs. She had first eualler.ged,
first provoked the adversary, and,
in return, had been abused, reviled, denounced
and cursed above other*.
" Live or die, sink or swim, survive or
perish," we should deliver to our posterity
the honor of the State as intact as we received
it from our fat hers.
] Atjthe close of tlio address, a resolution
was unanimously passed, that tha thanks of
the community be tendered to lion. A. O.
Magrath, for the able address he had made.
A vote of thanks was also tendered the
Greenviilo Hand for the efficient aid they
bad rendered on tha occasion.
