10 the Editors Or TIC Charleston Courier:
Affords me great satisfaction TO you that the
resolutions adopted both in Boston and here are but
FAINT evidences of the public feeling the late
OF foreign emssaries TO disturb the peace of the Union
The savo to abstract principles intended To min

WISE as the schoolmen after writing olos of lopic All
stracon is Just nothing, and is of Importance
TO the actual affairs of life, than would be prac
cal farmer to know how potatoes would have grown
when ailthe elements in chaos. The world is on

man. 10 pursue his'own happiness in his way; and

this abstract right Bat the South nothing about

will meet, is one which every good lawyer and sensible
man recognizes he one II will settle now and
forever the much dreaded of difference and as a
slave holder and citizen rejoice the late occasion
which has so powerfully turned public attention to this

subject in their primary assemblies believe in de-
nocracy, and have fear whatever that our institutions
are coming to an end hold them more firmly esta-
bished than The ground taken by the People of
the South Isl that their domestic institutions are not
70 any control from beyond their precincts
na an relation to their slave population, their control
is absolutely exclusive. On this fundamental principle
the people of the North say Amen. The compact of
Union leaves the powers of the States where il found
fhem-this is conceded. Then the only question re-
manning rs, will the people of the North stick TO their
bargain? On this there is but one opinion II 10

The Intimate connection between the agriculture of The
South and the commerce and manufactures of the North
IS fully appreciated and The gross ilegality and wick
edness OF disturbing the tranquility Of the South is
,el 80 strongly, that am satisfied the fanatics will
have hard time of it, The people are resolved that
an English emssary and few weak women and Young
PERSONS shall not speak in the of the whole peo,
pie OF the North. The strong disposition manifested
by the Postmaster General to suffer the Mail 10 be
an instrument in the hands Of criminals to violate the
State Laws speaks the sentiments of the Maternal and
wise old man. who in spite of all the cavs of his foes
