Gov. HAYNES MEssAGE.-we give below an in.
terestiDg comment by the Charleston Courier Gov.
Haynes last debating society speech, delivered in the
shape OF Message to the Multiplying Assembly in South
Carolna-W Globe.
The Governors .Messdge.-The portion OF this hocu-
ment devoted TO the subec OF nulli6caon we shall pass
by without comment, because, said by Governor
Hamilton another occasion, ii not only sounds the
SIN oil State sovereignty with an i'll omened note, but with
no variety TO relieve its dull vexaous dsonance There
are some points, however, to which shall briefly draw
attention.
We think the Governor is historically mistaken in saw.
ing that, whenever the political principles of his party
have been brought fair and full before the
people, their triumph has been decisive. So far this
from being the case, that South Carolina still the only
State in the Union in which such heerolox PRINCIPLES
have obtained the ascendancy; their defeat in
Georgia has been signal and the hope kindled by late
events in Alabama, has only amounted 20 deIu,ive gim
ner 10 render disappointment more severe.
The aluson TO the dismissal from the service of the
Union, OF naval officer who not only found TO be pub
lie deiaulter by Court OF Inquiry, but who subsequent
ly justified that Dismissal by brutal aud infamous
rage the person OF the Chief Magistrate of repub
lie, strikes not only OF place, but gnihed
in the Message OF State Executive The statenen MT
too, that RANDOLPH was acquitted by Military Couri
is entirely incorrect He only brought before Court
OF Inquiry, who far from acqutiDg him, found against
him the fact OF default in large OF money; and also
nuRberiess Irregularities in his accounts, which they
charaby imputed rather 10 carelessness than design
The allegation that hired soldery, under uive or
ders had inuaded The State Of Alabama in time Of pro-
found peace cling pedcedble ctzsns from their homes
and numbering them with IMMUNITY, is ra'het curious
instance OF the magDfying power of imagination. The
hired soldery already stationed United States
territory to which the Stale OF Alabama had claim, al
though lying within her geographical limits, and The
"urdering Of pedeeobie citizens, consisted in the kill
ing Of man. named OWENS in the is aiege
Of shooting of the individuals who legally au-
thorized 10 him from the public territory which
he had inruded, and which he had made the theatre Of
many outrages OH those whom the United States were
bound by treaty to protect.
