That tale has never been told yet on the sons of South Carolina, and I honestly hope that it will never be told, while South Carolina affords as many fine and brilliant young men, as she does at this time ) who are able to stand up in the defence of their rights and liberties, as j freemen, to protect their old Fathers, who 1 are not able to protect themselves, or i their mothers who have sup|>orted, nourished aiuicherished them, and who have taught them that their fore fathers handed down to them liberty, and freedom, i and tkfflt they should ever remember, and cherish those principles—which were so the whole city may be obtained. From the number of monuments it contains. Baltimore has been called the Monumen tal City. The highest and most imposing j of these is the Washington, which is a noble specimen of architecture, both in design and execution. It is situated on j a lofty eminence 100 feet above tide-wa- ; ter, and towers far above the city, con- | stituting one of its principal embellish ments, and a conspicuous landmark to seamen and travellers. It is 180 feet in heieht, and is ascended by a winding staircase of 200 steps. The ascent is so dark as to require to lie lighted by a lamp. Froni its giddy height I saw Baltimore, and much of the surrounding country. This city is situated on uneven ground, which gives to it a gently undulating ap- ually rising. “Unchanging form, unceasing roar, Niagara, what art thou ?

I had heard much ol this beautiful resting place of the dead, but it even surpassed my most brilliant conceptions. It has a surface plains. and girls of the Tuscarora tribe who were seated on the grass along the path, in groups of two and three, engaged in mak- , ing and selling bead-work and many other ' Indian notions. As we passed them they | would smile and point to their work which lay scattered around them. We asked them many questions, but could get little from ibein except the price of their work or such monosyllables as “yes or no.” Some of the girls were fantastically dress ed and as they sat along the path on their grassy sofas in all the simplicity of nature. I thought them really beautiful. On our return we met at the Ferry, an old Indian man and two little boys—the old man very sociable and cominuuicfctive. scnption.

There are other monuments in Baltimore, but they are less conspicuous and less im portant than those already mentioned. Tliore are many handsome public build ings here, among which are the Court House, the Almshouse, the State Prison, the Jail.&c. Home of the churches, also, are distinguisned for architectural beauty and elegance. The CatholiivCathedral is one of the noblest structures of its kind. There are a number of Catholic churches here; the State of Maryland was originally settled by a Catholic colo ny. Another object of interest which at tracted my attention was the Merchant's Shot Tower, which is said to have a dearly bought by the blood of the ir fore greater elevation than any other structure fathers. I am happy to hear that there is a great change in old Marboro, in favour ' of .Southern Rights. I thought 1 knew her sons too well to believe that they ever would knuckle down to Federal Aggres sions. I knew that her sons had some of the revolutionary blood left in them yet, that ifthey were cut down, that they would rise and go at it again, like the heroes of, seventy-six, did when they were battling , at Lexiugtion and Bunkers Hill, to throw off the Bnuah Yoke. Old Marlboro has always been right side up—standing up like her noble little Elate, democratic, pa triotic, watching over her rights and liber- tias. Now let mo say to you as one who Ixdwfofl in your patriotism, stand up for of the kind, being 250 feet in height. After taking a look in transitu at the city, I left there at 8 o’clock on the even ing of the 22d inst., on the Philadelphia rail road. Though the face of nature was shrouded in Cimmerian darkness, the time did not pass heavily away, for the interior of the cars was lighted up with bright lamps and cheerful countenances. Many Southerners, were on board, who, as you know, are not noted for bashful- nessor for being averse to “scraping ac quaintance” while travelling. I formed the acquaintance <ff several North Caro linians, who, with a friend from South Carolina and myself, “vexed with mirth the drowsy ear of night,” nearly the whole, distance from Baltimore to Phila delphia ; they were a jolly, whole-souled set of fellows. We arrived in Philadelphia at 3 o’clock your rights never bark out from the threats the next morning, and left there for New of war, secession will not produce war. If it does, it will net be our, or rather the faoh of South Carolina—for as a free and sovereign State, we have the right to withdraw from the federal union, when oat rights—as a sovereign people are no longef regarded or respected by them. Now, why do you paum; ahoyt the mode or lime in which we should act—are our Delegatee elect, to the Convention, Rot honest men—are they not men of iutelli'i goce—or is there a naan, who een doubt York at 6 a. m. On our way a difficulty occurred on the care between the con ductor and a number of passengers, in which my friends were implicated, and which I tetVed at one time would result in something serious. The circumstances were these: many of the passengers had purchased tickets in Baltimore, to New Yortt, which the conductor on the New Jersey rail road, refused to take, al leging that they wgre spurious, and re- J imred tltorrf to pay the regular passage rom Philadelphia to New Nork.

The theatre was crowd ed with a large and fashionable audience, who seemed delighted with the perform ance. The city is full of excitement on the Cuban revolution; large meetings have been held several successive nights, and much sympathy is manifested in the cause of the patriots. A fugitive slave from Columbia, 8. C., was arrested a few days since in Poughkeepsie, in this State, and brought to this city. He is to appear before the Commissioner to-morrow.— Many of his abolition and colored friends are expected to be present, as well as a "nod many Southerners, now in the city. More anon. Yours,£c., N. Niagara Falls, U. Canada, J August 30th, 1851. \ Dear J.; I now write in full view of tiie great Falls of Niagara, and almost amjdst the spray of the thundering cata ract. Our travelling party, consisting of Mr. H. and lady, of North Carolina, and Mrs. G. and Miss M., of South Carolina, arrived here on yesterday, and took lodg ings at the Clifton House, on the Canadi an aide of the river. We came down from Buffalo by the Niagara river, on the steamer Emerald, and were landed at Chippewa, in Upper Canada. This little village, you win recollect, is noted as as the scene of a sanguinary battle in the war of 1813. You cannot conceive of the anxious curiosity which I felt aa I ap proached the Falls, to see that great anomaly of nature which annually draws so many pilgrims from every ]>ortioii of the globe, to view and wonder at its un described and indescribable beauty and grandeur. The trip from Buffalo to this E lare is made by the steamer in about an our and a half; the distance is about 22 milea. It is a delightful excursion, and is well calculated to prepare the viaitor for the magnificent scene which awaits him. Buffalo ie situated on Lake Erie, where it empties into the Niagara river. It is a large and handsome city, contain ing about 60,000 inhabitaiits; it paratively a new place, having g Americans in that battle.

His eye would kindle as he would point out to us the spots on which certain brave deeds were accomplished. “Yonder,” said he, “ is the f»pot where the gallant Miller was stationed when he was asked by his com mander if he could take a certain battery, has been very appropriately named the “Maid of the Mist.” It makes four trips daily. After enjoying the scene on the j American side, we recroseed the river, proceeded to our hotel, settled our bill, cast a lingering look at the cataract, and I set out on our way homewards.
