"'Honored and Respected Sir:-Ae

ty of -Ancriinn Uniotn, I venture to ad

minient as is the danger of' disunion
at the South. it is eqial ly imminelit,
froin the North. The friends of 'the
Union in the South, (both in and
out of South Carolina.) have no
foothold to stand upon, but the recent
Congressioiial adjustnent-if that be
taken froma theiin, the whi ilwind of
disunion will sweep iiobstructed
throughout the Souti. Tie fugitive
slave bill is the Chief, it' not the on
ly Southern cletneit of tluat aijustiment
-and, unless it be fiithfiliv observed
and carried out by the North, all
hope ot the Union iav. as well be
albndoned. It is mily firm and re
ligi us conviction, that the repeal of
the leigityive slave bill. or its practical
Iuillitieationi, by% the North, will be the
kAnIl of the Union-to preserve it
at, all, even uniler fidelity to the
adjustnient, will be a Illercleiial
task; but let the North prove 1i1ithless
in that particular, -and the I ilini will
not last an hour. Nay, I go fir
ther, and declare it to he iiiy. f' ll coil
viction, that the South will not
tiolerate anyv filrther agitation of the
sliveI qeistioln ill Congress, in any'
shape n% hatever-and that, tnttless
she can have 1iill securit v inl this
matter, tor the fiture, self-preservation
will Compel her to seek safety in a
Sepaaite coifederaev. Such, as fIr as
I cai gather, are the views ot the
best frien ds f lithe Uinion in the South
-0f those, who love the Union
with patriot and filial devotion, aid
believe that, if constitutionially ad
ministered, it will continue to he
a booni and a blessinig to the South.
Fronm this review. y(i Will perceive,
