GP.NRAL tsasgttt.Y O' SOUTH CAno,iN.t, By ills Excellency YJolts ii. iiMEA S. Senators and Gentlemen if the Ihouse of Re. presenlalires of South Carolina: I appear before you to qualify for the office to which I have been elevated by your suffrages, and although I miust ex perienco the emotions of pride and gri. tification which a scene like this would inspire in any heart, yet the too painful conviction impresses itself upon me, that I owe this mark of your approba. tion more to the exertions of old and cherished friendships, than to any ter. it of niv own; and I should consider myself as an entirely unwortny recip. lent of' your kindness, if my heart did not ro.echo with gratitude to its inmost recee. .The uoir w hich I am atbotit to as sume. is at all tittes onn of importance, but more jirrticuilarly it is so in thii" eventful crisis, when den;ors and tuili. culties are casting their dark und gloomy shadows around our federal re lations. I trust that I approach it with a due sentset of the deep resptonsihility it involves, and with a inrm determination to devote all my powers and energies to, the discharge of its arduous duties. And may I not itmiulge tht the s41n I kindnes:s which indued tlyou to betowa the oflice upon et, will prompt yout to assist and support me amrid t he. diflicul. ties that may encompass it ? I niav, nio doulit will, frequently err, but never in. tentionally, for, thank Gd, I bear about me a heart burning with inchigation at my country's wrongs. and which is never known a thoug.lht, feeling or emn , tion, higher than that which beats for the glory, honor andtt wel fare of moy ita. tive State. Although the office of Chief .\aMgis. Irate is one full of responsibility, he cause it involves the "ftitlhful execu. Lion of the laws,'' yet it has little or .nothing of patrona e or of power con tected with it. Yet there is a degree of influence that always belongs to high official stations. which can be cx ertedi for ind or for evil, to a greater or less extent, according to the capacity for moanagemien: in the incuimbent. It is important, therefore, that the opinionis, the purposes anid feelings of hint upon whom it is bestowed, should be fully knowvn. Front th. views I hiave ever enter. .tained of our internal policy, I see but oie t hat I wvould ulter or amend, tnoth. ingt that I wuouldi radically change. Be. ing' in the firm convictiont thtat the instito. tions of a counttry, exercise a powerful naty an irresistible influtencc upont thle frma-tion of' the characmter of its citi. en. on Iwing justl y proud of the re ' ~~tutiion whfich South Carolina hits ever need, I conme inito this olhoce, to) the ex tenut atnd meaning af the word, Sevative. Although I am not wedded to ancient ilaws anid cats. en accountt of' the santttityv whieb antiqutity tmay thtrow' arotunid it, when under these laws an i ia tiat ion characterized by eve. th . that is great orntobile htas grown id telou. trishedi, I feel thtat what ex peri.. .rien bats hown to be the cause of thtose great r'sits, shiould be piroteictedl fromti Ahe tuthiless hiand~ of the itnnovator, anid shieuld ho btehl saci:red on account of thetir uisefulIness andi venierated ias tiime htonoiredI1141 monuments of the wisdiom of' outr iaicestors. I kinow that by mitany .abroadl who cantnot appreciate its chat rauter, or are enviouis of' its tones, we have been sneered at as braggairts (it account of the just pride wve feel int our blcove I Steif.

'T'heir terrors aro not alone to be seen in the misery Iausedl to the slaveholder, by stripping him of his property bought and honest. ly paid for by a life of industry- -not in the starvation and ruin of the ner. chant and mechanic by the prostration of those who buy his merchandise, ")r pay him for his labor-not in de wted fields and decaying towns and villages, but in the still more direful consequences resulting fron the con. mingling together of two races so en tirely distinct in their genius and hn. racter upon terns of political equality. One or the other of them must be an nihiilated, and that too, amid scenes of error, of anarchy and blood, greater han which any history records upon her larkest and bloodiest page. Ilt even laying aside this question, we have sutlicient reason for dissatis. Fiction with the Federal Government. !'he whole tenor and complexion of its lets show that the Constitution so far is the rights of the South are concern "d, allard not thie slightest protection. Il'ho will of the majority irrespcetive of is eheecks and balances is tlt law of lie land. Our liberties, our property, our char icters, are to be submitted to the tender nercies of a mnajority, whose every bIouglt feeling and einotion, is concen. rated in one hurling focus of hatred agailist u15 and our institutions. Under bese circulstanices, what are we to look or, or what are we toexpect. Through ie dim vista of the dhark and gloomy fu. tire helibre us, wye can see no cheering -ay of hope that our condition will bit ettered, but, on the contrary, a sudl vis an cf the gradual ruin and decay of our tate. until we aro reduced to a condi. in ofcollon ial vassalage, far worse hau that from which our fathers rescued hen.-Said experience has proved that hite safeguards placed over the rights of eur country in the form of parchment, s but parchinent at last-that the only -tl;etual bulwark wiich on be thrown round them, is a bulwark of men, who now their rights and have the courtg' o nmintain them. Fine.d, w% e are dissatisfied with the elcral government because it b:re u' 'rlv failtel in acomiplishing the ends ur which it was created.
