SEISI-WEEXY OAMDE?J JOURNAL. ""secession the sure remedy. The following extract from the report of Gen. Wallace's sneoch at Unionvillc on the 4th of July, is worth reading. Like everything rorninir from the author it is distinguished bv directness, sense and force: "The right of secession is the only mode by which we can exercise a veto power upon the federal government The veto power should have been left with the States, by the express terms of the Constitution itself, where alone a safe depository of it can be found. It becomes, therefore, a question of the last importance, that the right of secession, should be established and acknowledged ; and were there no other question now before the people of the South than this alone, it would he incumbent upon them to obtain clear and distinct recognition of this right. IIow are we to obtain this recognition i There is no way to retain it but to re sort to the act of secession. Until we shall have seceded from the Union, we can obtain no recognition of the right to secede. Once out of the Union, by the act of secession?having resumed that sovereignty which is now denied us, our voice will be respected, and until then it never will be. We will then be in con.to:.... tn. imitic ;r wo rtoaire it. and even UlUUIJ IU UtilUU b?l IUO II ?? V --7 if we desire to save the Union, this is the only mode by which it can be done. Let us suppose that South Carolina has seceded from the Union. If the general government resort to coercion, and South Carolina is subdued, there is an end forever of State sovereignty on this continent. By that act alone, the character of tho Government will bo disclosed, and it becomes at once, to all intents and purposes a Consolidated empire. If State sovereignty be thus crushed in the case cf South Carolina, in our fate every Southern State may read their own. What State South of us would ever seek to defend themselves in any way against tho tyranny of the General Government, after S. Carolina has been subjugated ? When that time shall arrive, tho phantom ot a Confedratod Republic of independent States will disappear forever, and wo will be under the iron rule of a remorseless despotism. Do any suppose that the people of the South are sufficiently blinded not to see this? Whenever, therefore, South Carolina shall make the practical issue of secession, the States South of ns, in order to save themselves from these dire calamities, will be compelled to co-operate with her; they can't escape it. If he were told, therefore, that he must wait for co-operation, he would answer, the only mode to guarantee that i? to net?to make a nractical is sac?and if we do not obtain co-operation then, all past history is a fiction. It is clear, from these propositions, that the secession of a single State must, in the very nature of things, either effect a reform in tho General Government, by placing" it in the power of a State to check its tyranny by exercising the veto of secession, or dissolve the Union ; and the Union once dissolved, a Southern Confederacy is inevitable. Let us not, then, hide from ourselves the important fact that South Carolina holds in her hands the power to destroy the Union. lie had ho fears of her being subjugated. The j States having like interests with hers, cannot, j . trill not, dare not, permit her to fight the great 1 battle of Southern Rights alone. In his judg-! meat, the prevailing ideas in reference to the j co-operation which is sought are not well 1 founded. How did the Colonies in 177G oh- ! tain co-operation \v?th one another in resisting British aggression ? Was tho Union formed I before the Revolution begun ? Certainly not. I The battle of Bunker Hill was fought by the i militia of Massachusetts, under command of I Col. Prescott, a militia Colonel. The comuus- j sion he held was froiu the Colony of Massachu- | setts, and not from the United States. Tho j regiment ho command id was not called out by j the authority of the United States, hut by the ; authority of the Colony of .Massachusetts.? The conflict was thus begun by a single Colony?without co-operation. How did she oh- ; tain it? The sound of the guns of Hunker | Hill had scarcely passed away, before South j Carolina rushed to arms to co-operate with I Massachusetts in a common cause which in-! Volved the fate of both; and the first victory j of the revolution was won upon Sullivan's Is- [ land, against a powerful British fleet, by a rogirLieut ot South Carolina Militia, under the command of a militia Colonel, and under the sole authority of South Carolina. When these events occurred, there wasrjo Union ?the blood that was shed at Bunker Hill and Fort Jloul- . trie, brought about, and that speedily, a union of all the colonies. And Washington was not commander-inchief when the Union was formed. The Un ion of which we now hear so much, was the legitimate result of separate State action, and Washington placed at the head of an army raised after the war began. This is a lesson which history teaches us?lot us not lack the resolution to profit by it." PUBLIC MEETINGS. Wc have heard briefly and generally from the meeting held on monday last at Chestergrille and Yorkville. At the former place the meeting had at first been called the anti-secessionist, but it was subsequently agreed to give a hearing on both sides. There were about eight or nine hundred present, of both parties, who wore addressed by .Messrs. Jtliett and iMcAlillev?the latter on the anti-secession side. Both speeches were well hoard, and were marked by the usual ability of the speakers. At Yorkville, it is estimated about fifteen hundred wero present, and who seemed to be nearly nil in favor of the action party. They were addressed by Col. Maxcy Grogg aud Gen. James II. Adams, of this District, and by their immediate fellow-citizen, Gen. John A. Alston, in able, argumentative and eloquent addresses, which were listened to with the greatest enthusiasm and approbation.?Cnrolinitin. A subscriber to the New Haven Register, in Ohio, writes: "You may tell your readers that Ohio will produce wheat enough this season to bread the United States one year! The crop never was better. A CURE FOR LOW SPIRITS. A itoUSUHOLD SKETCH. From r nusc, real or imaginary, I felt low i spirited. Thorp was a cloud upon my feelings I and I could not "Sibile as usual, nor speak in a i tone of cheerfulness. As a natural result, the light of my countenance being gone, all things I I around me were in shadow. My husband was - - .. ? 11. sober and had little tp say; the children wouxu look strangely at mo when f answered their I question, or spoke to them for any purpose, and iliv domestics moved about in a quiet man- i ner, and when they addressed me, did so in a tone more subdued than usual. This re-action upon my state, only made darker the clouds that veiled my spirits. 1 was i conscious of this, and was conscious that the 1 original cause of my depression was entirely 1 inadequate, in itself, to produce the result that I had followed. Under this feeling I made an i effort to rally myself, hut in vain; and sank i lower from the very struggle to rise above the i gloom that overshadowed me. ? When my husband came home at dinnertime, I tried to meet him with a smile; but 1 < felt that the light upon my countenance was ; feeble and of brief duration. He looked at me 1 earnestly, and, in his kind and gentle way, en- j quired if I felt no better, affecting to believe ] that my ailing was in the body instead of the mind. But I scarcely answered him, and could , see that he felt hurt. How much more wretched did I become at this. Could 1 have retired | to my chamber, and then, alone, give my full j heart vent in a passion of tears, 1 might have < ; obtained relief to my feelings. But l couiu not < j do this. i I While I sat at the table, forcing a little food < into my mouth for appearance sake, my bus- ; band said? i " You remember the fine lad who has been i for some time in our store ?" < I nodded my head, but the question did not j awaken in my mind the slightest interest. " He has not made his appearance for seve- j ral days; and I learned this morning, on send- | ing to the house of his mother, that ho was ve- < ry ill." i "Ah!" was in}' indifferent response. Had I ( spoken what was in my mind, I would have | said--"I,m sorrv, but 1 can't help it." 1 did | not, at the moment, feel the smallest interest in ; the lad. i "Yes," added my husband, "and the person ( who called to let me know about it, expressed i his fears that Edward would not get up again." | "What ails him?" 1 enquired. " 1 did not clearly understand. But he has ] fever of some kind. You remember his mother ; very well." I "Oil, yes. You know she worked for me; i Edward is her only child, I believe." < "Yes. And his loss to her will be almost c every thing." "Is he so dangerous?" I enquired, n feeling of interest beginning to stir iu my heart. "He is not expected to live." r "Poor woman! How distressed she must be! s I wonder what her circumstances are just at t this time. iSlie seemed very poor when she i worked for me." [ "And she is very poor still, I doubt not. She j has herself been sick, and during the time it is j t more than probable that Edward's wages was j 1 all her income. I fun afraid she lias suffered, I i and that she has not now, the means of procu- i ring for her sick hoy, things necessary for his f comfort. Could you not go round there this \ afternoon and see how they are?" i I shook my head, instantly, at tins propOsi- I tion, for sympathy for others was not yet strong s enough to expel my despondency of mind. "Then I must step around," replied my husband, "before I go back to the Store, although ' we are very busy to-day, and I am much wan- f ted there. It would not be right to neglect the 1 lad and his mother under present circumstan- 1 ces. 1 felt rebuked at these words, and, with a ; forced effort said?" I will go." * It will be much better for you to see him 1 than for me," returned my husband, "for you j can understand their wants better, and minis- 1 ter to them more effectually. If they need any ) comforts, I would like for you to see them sup- 1 plied." I It still cost mc an effort to get ready, but as j I had promised that 1 would do as my husband 1 wished, the effort had to he made. By the ' time I was prepared to go out, I felt seme- ( thing better. The exertion I was required to 1 make, tended to disperse slightly, the clouds <li.il 1.1-tirr nvnr inn ninl nc llmv hnnrnn m-ii/tunl. bltltv I.W..V3 ...V, '^D* 1 6 UMM,U j ly to move, my thoughts turned with an awakening interest towards the object of iny husband's solicitude. All was silent within the humble abode to which my errand led tne. I knocked lightly, and in a few moments the mother of Edward opened the door. She looked pale and anxious. "How is your son, Mrs. Ellis?" I enquired J as 1 stepped in. "lie is very low ma'rn," she replied. "Not dangerous, I hope?" "The fever has left him, but he is as weak i as an infant. All his strength has left him." 1 "Hut proper nourishment will restore him, if ; the disease is broken." < "So the doctor says. Hut I'm afraiilit is too j late. He seems to be sinking every'hour.? i Will von walk tin and see him mn'm ?" i I followed .Mrs. Ellis up stnirs, and into the 1 chamber where the sick boy lay. I waB not surprised at the fear she expressed, when I saw Edward's pale sunken face, and hollow, ul- ' most expressionless eyes. He scarcely noticed 1 my entrance. 1 "Poor boy!" sighed his mother. "lie has j1 had a very sick spell." My liveliest interest ' was at once awakened. "He has been very sick indeed!" I replied, as I laid my hand upon his white forehead. I ' found that his skiu was cold and damp. The ' fever had nearly burned out the vital energies ' of the system. "Ho you give him much nourishment?" . "Ho takes a little barley water." I "Has not the doctor ordered wine?" t " Ym mn'm." rnr.lifid Mrs. Ellis, V?iif cIia I " spohe with air of hesitation. "He says a spoon full of good wine, three or four times a day, f would he very good for him." i "And you have not given him any?" s "No ma'in." j I..M. M. in.. _ |fmm iii1'tTMiif18j11r 1 f "Wo have some very pure wine, that we always keep for sickness. If you will step over to our house, and tell Alice to give you a liot tie of it, I will stay with Edward until you return." How brightly glowed that poor woman's race as my words fell upon her cars! "Oh, iria'm, you are very kind!" said she. "But it will be asking too much of you to stay here!" "You did'nt ask it, Mrs. Ellis," I smilingly replied. "1 have offered to stay; so do you go for the wine as quickly as you can, for Edward needs it very much." I was required to say no more. In a few minutes I was alone with the sick boy, who lay almost as still as if death were resting upon his half closed eye-lids. To some extent, in the half hour I remained thus in that hushed chamber, did I realize the condition and feelings of the poor mother whose only son lay gasping at the very door ol death, and all my sympathies were, in consequence, awakened. As soon as Mrs. Ellis returned wit.li the wine, about a tea spoonful of it was diluted, ind the glass containing it placed to the sick lad's lips. The moment its flavor touched his palate, a thrill seemed to pass through his frame, and he swallowed eagerly. 'It drw?s him frond!" said I. sneakiiiL'warml V. "" O " ~T I * O ^ ' ind from au Impulse that made my heart glow. We sat and looked with silent interest upon [he boy's face, and wo did not look in vain, for something like warmth came upon his wan rhceks, and when I placed my hand again tipan his forehead, the coldness an! dampness was gone. Tho'wine had quickened his languid pulses. I staid an hour longer, and then mother spoonful of the generous wine was given. Its effect was as marked ns at first. I then withdrew from the humble home of the widovvand her only-child, promising to see them igain in the morning. When I regained the street, and my thoughts for a moment, reverted to myself, how did I ind myself, how did I find all changed. The ;louds bad been dispersed?the heavy hand raised from my bosom. I walked with a freer step. Sympathy for others, and active efforts to do others good, had expelled the evil spirits Irom my heart; and now serene peace had there igain her quiet habitation. There was light :n every part of my dwelling when I re-enter;d it, and I sung cheerfully, as I prepared with my own hands a basket of provisions lor the poor widow. When my hnsband returned in the evening, ie found me at work cheerfully, in my family,. ind all bright and smiling again. The effort J :o do good to others had driven away the darkless from my spirit, and the sunshine wa? aJain upon my countenance, and reflected from ;rery member of my household. Lady's Wreath.

Cure for Scarlet Freer.?In the Baltimore $un we find the following, which we commend 0 our readers, old and young: "We published n the Sun, about a year since, a statement that ,lu rubbing of all parts of the body three times 1 day with fat bacon, as soon as the scarlet forer discloses itself, was a sure remedy for the lisease. \N e have recently been called 011 b}' 1 number of responsible gentlemen from the jountins, who assure us that it lias hern tried n numerous instances with uniform success; .vliilo those who depend on medicines alone had, n most cases, fallen victims to its ravages.

Every day we have it in abundance, and the weather for the past week has not been so oppressively warm as some time previous.

Aiken has been declared elected Brigadier General cf the 6th Brigade, by the Board of OCicers assembled at Columbia, to decide the contested election between Captains II. K. Aiken and J. N. Shedd. _ The Southern Standard. In our judgment takes a bad way to produce Co-operation, (even at home) by copying as it does paragraphs,of nota very complimentary character, to the secessionists of South Carolina, from such prints as the New Orleans Picayune, which embrace every opportunity to ridicule the movements, cf the action party. Or if it suits the Standard and Picayune better, we have no objection to saving of the "Rliclliles" although we pin our faith to no man, yet we believe Mr. Rhett is right, and as long as he is in that position, we are not averse to being classed in that vocabulary, for certainly it is better than to be called 4;a sub." We think there is a strange inconsistency in the course which the Standard is pursuing, notwithstandmrAttfnl tn llio oon fro y\* tl\n !n 1110 uo u\ uwai iw ?uv vv/imnij) uv uiauuaiu ir j doing much to bring about a state of feeling, between parties in South Carolina, which we deprecate so strongly in the Greenville Patriot, which feeling will likely result in the alienation of the two resistance parties in the State, from each other, by which the cause will be ruined, and ultimately the triumph of Perry, Thompson, Fillmore &. Co., will be complete. Whether the Standard or any one else, is willing to give tts much credit for smartness, is a matter to us of "supreme indifference." We believe time will show what wc say to be correct. Charleston?Co-operation. In a recent paper, we remarked in our comments upon the late Co-operation movements in Charleston, that this City was bitterly opposed to measures of resistance, such as separate State action. The reason why such is the case, appears quite obvious. We are not surprised when we consider that Charleston in feeling and interest, is almost Northern. Capital and influence of a Northern origin, have been brought heavily to bear upon the issues of the day. It is rather surprising that so many secessionists, of the first class and letter "A should be found m Charleston, who do not allow their interest in dollars and cents to outweigh every other consideration.? For such we must entertain feelings different from those who allow the "almighty dollar" to carry them into tame subinissiouisui. Wo hope enough of the good leaven may be found, to leaven the whole political lump, for wo believe that a great many in Charleston stand upon the Co-operation platform who are opposed to action of any kind. We have been highly gratified at the reception of the following letter from an esteem ?d friend, which is the very antipodes cf all that winks at submission. Our correspondent, after the usual preliminaries, and referring to the number of our paper which speaks i<f the late Co-operation movements in Charleston, says: "Upon reading your editorial. I find vou mnkin? an admission, which many of us hero, are by no means ready to acknowledge correct, viz: "That Charleston is bitterly opposed to measures of resistance, &c. On the contrary, the "Resistance Party" of Charleston, is daily gaining strength, and could you have attended the demonstration, made at the last meeting ofour'Auxili.iry Association," you would at least have found a large number present, whose names were not sent abroad, in the call for the late "Co-operation Meeting." We feel assured, that the position of parlies here, is now changed, and that we shall yet be enabled, to show this fact, to our back-country friends, upon the first opportunity, that calls us to the Polls."

We find the following cheering intelligence in the Charleston Mercury, which we transfer with pleasure to our columns : First Gun from Alaiiama.?We are indebted to a friend for a copy of a telegraphic despatch from Mobile, communicating the lollowing gratifying intelligence: Mobile, August 4.?The State Rights ticket is triumphant by a largo majority.
