have been laid aside, and the
avocations of life resumed. Business i r
has assumed its former liveliness, and
activity All things indicato the testoration
of order and law, and'prefigure the
commencement of better and more favnruble
times. Theoloction for representatives '
is the theme of conversation, several cau- ^
coses have been held for the nomination
of suitable candidates, but all result:d in l'
difsutisfactiou and a failure to accomplish c
this end, every commissioned officer
possesses vanity enough to believe that he 5
is untitled to groat favors at the hands of v

and men distinguished for their ability
and experience should Compose the tint 1

II is impossible that such will be the ease,
Personal feelings and considerations will c
be the motives which prompt most tnon in *
this selection, the result of which wilt be
the election of very inefficient and inconj- 1
pctoot representatives. There urc no less )
than eight candidates in this county '
(Lcavenwoith) which is entitled to but c
four members. The election takes place 1
on the i?th October. 'This one will not, 1

of the Southern Kiui* '
nts are not ooncious from the fact of *
their expressing a determination to return 1
to the Stitea immediately after the election ' I
for representatives. J (
I have recently via fled the Southern , 1
portion of the Tinrilory, and discovered to jd
uiy astonishment that, in geographical , 1
position, fertility of soil, salubrity of '
of climate and agricultural advantages,
it fur surpasses the Northern, which I
had vishod previously to tho writing of '
my Lit cmnmuiucution. It is mostly ( 1
pnirio, uoarly devtitut^of ttecH or growth '
of any kind, abounding in springs of the | 1
pui^at water ami rich in minerals. The 1 '
soil is of two kinds, ono the rod cbiy, the | 1
other black prairie inud, both of which ;''
requires but littlo rain for iho production '
of auy kind of crops. With one plowing j
the hill-sides and elovated places will 1
produeo fifty bushels of corn, while the 1
bottoms in the vicinity of the rivers or 1 *
creeks will yield one hundred and fifty ; 1
bushels. Boidts corn, the Boil will '
produce tobacco, hemp, wheat rye, oats, j
potatoes, and vugcubicfl in the suinc!
proportion. The country is undulating,
and rolling, and presents beautiful pros. . 1
pccts which are truly aurupluriiig to the j
lover of naturo nnd her many beauties ! 1
In fine, tho whole of Kanaaa is a rich ami *
fertile country, the agricultural recoercca
of which could be easily developed by the
employment of slate ).<bor, which will
undoubtedly prove protitakleif the severity
of the climate in wiutcr does not interpose
an insurmountable obstacle. The weather

in the Territory, with the hopo

attention and arousing them to a sense
if the paramount importance of tho
iresent issue, and indicating the abso-'
utc necessity of prompt and oncrgctid
ction, if we wisli to determine it favor,bly
for the South by achieving a vieory
over tho fanatical minions of aboitionisiu.

it mj vindication from charges of wriing
merely for display and ostentation,
rhich may l?e alleged by thoso who are
trQnuonsly opposed to the adjustment
>f the existing difficulties by an appeal
o arms, and the occupation of Kansas
iy emigrants sent out under the auspi:cs
of associations.
That there arc some in South Oaro*
ina entertaining such odious sentiment*,
u?d inen occupying exalted positions
n the State, distinguished for their
ibility, political .sagacity and cxporiinco.
and professing ardent Mevotion
ind UTiiibating fidelity to Southern
ighfs and institutions, no one can deny.
They have publicly expressed their
>ppo*ition to the Kansas movement,?
shieh has had a tendency to influence
he opinions of the dependent nnd an
mphmticiited, and induce them to nsuiine
the same attitude of hostility to it,
md denounce it as being un impolitic
md unconstitutional plan of occupying
his rich and fertile country, when it
XMld be done so much more peaceably
)V the usual and ordinary means of
emigration. They avow their willing
less to give up the contest without a
struggle and allow the abolitionists to
lecurc the Territory for the North, in
:V\ they can accomplish this purpose,
lie desideratum of their wishes, by the
nrdy action of the ballot box, and, if
bis means proves unavailing, by anpealng
to tho efficacy of Sharpy's rifles.?
iVhat inconsistency and incontinency
n men purporting to advocate the rights
md interests of tho pro-slavery party.
iVhat a delusion for any rational cre.v
uee to bo laboring under. Tho politi:al
experience of the last five years
hould be sufliriont to convince tbein
>f the utter hopelessness of maintaining
?ur right*, by lying supinely on our
Mick*, and supplicating the diviuity of
he Constitution, and appealing to the
s'ii?e of honor and justice of those who
tavs been unscrupulously invading them
linee their organisation into a party
or this avowed purpose. Previously
o this time some modest/ and the inli
cations of an indistinct t*?<i*ciousnc9S
>f the demand* of duty and propriety,
lave characterized their deliberations,
md the accomplishment of their nefari>ua
designs, bat, now in the lust stage
it desperation, when the dictates of
heir nobler nature hushed into
ilenco by the incessant clamors of
heif debased passionr, they have deibtrately
and rosolutely determined to
ran*pie upon. an-? deprive us of, our
ust snd^ constitutional rights, and to
iccomplish their hellish purpose of eralicatiug
the institution of slavery, howtver
ruinous may be the consequences,
lowever detrimental to ?jc prosperity
md perpetuity of this ouce glorious
Jnion.

ibUvfor the troubles, difficulties and
listurbwices which have existed in
Cmiimm since the passage of the Neitaska-Kansas
bit), and produced such
a tense excitement throughout the
ouutry. Those unprincipled fanatics,
nbbera and invaders wore the tfggresore
in every instance. At tho first
gi tat ion of tho subject, associations
?r occupyingjths Territory by coercive tcano
through the instrumentality of
migrants, were first formed at the
loith. Hundreds of vagabonds, the
