 DISTRACTION OF THE INcENDIARY PAMPH- LETs.-Such was the excitement in our city caused by the arrival of the incendary pamph. lets and papers which almost monOpolised the United States Mail on Wednesday, that crowd oftwo or three hundred citizens assem- bled that night. for the purpose of seizing and destroying them. These citizens were met by Lieut.. Brown of the City Guard near the Exchange and persuaded to dspcrse but it not being generally known that measures
 were in cOncert between the Post Master and
 many of our leading citizens, tn call the att tenti0n of the authorities at Washington to the subject, few gentlemen afterwards
 broke open the Post Office. seized the bags containing the Abolition tracts and made a ! b0n-fre of the whole last evening. 5. We regret this act as premature. 1t would l have been time enough tO act. after we had
 learned that the Federal Government would not interfere to prevent the Post Office belDg used as means of annoyance and injury to
 those who are taxed for its support. We

 at al' hazards, we will take care of ourselves.
 We think too it would have been better had
 the Pamph(ets been allowed to reach Their
 destination, to put the whole Southern com
 munity on their guard-Ly preserving the oc- cuiar proof Of the movements of the Fanatics, especially as each bundle was tO he accompa. nied by circulars iron, the South Carolina Association. 1t ,~a10 %.t
 We believe that those who broke open the Post Office have erred, but none can blame their feelings or motives, which have the sympathy Of the entire community.
