Our CoUNTRY's FLAG.-Ihe Hon Joel H..
Poinsett, now Secretary of War of the United
States, related the following incident at pub
tic meeting in Charleston during the nullfica-
lion controversy, some years since:
Saws Mr.. Poinsett, "Wherever have been
was proud of being citizen of this great re-
public, and in the remotest corner Of the earth
have walked erect and secure under that BAN
ner which our opponents would fain tear down
and trample underfoot. Twas in Mexico when
the city was taken by assault. The house Of
the American ambassador was then, as it ought
to be, the refuge of the distressed and persecu-
ted; it was pointed out to the infuriated SOL
diery as place filed with their enemies
They rushed to the attack. My own defence
was the flag of my country, and it was flung
out al the instant that hundreds of muskets
were levelleda at us. Mr.. Mason Ia braver man
never stood by his friend in the hour of danger)
and myself placed ourselves beneath its waving
folds, and the attack was suspended. We did
not blanch. for we felt strong in the protecting
arm of this mighty republic, We told them
that the flag that waved over us was the ban
ner Of the nation to whose example they owed
were indebted for their safety. They scene
was changed as by enchantment, and those
who were on the point of attacking my house
and many terrified inhabitants, cheered the flag
Of our country, and placed sehtinels to pro-
tect it from outrage. Fellow-citizens, at such
a moment as that, would it have been any pro-
lection to me and mine, to have proclaimed my
self a Caronan? Should have been here to
tell you this taleifI had hung out the Palmetto
and single starr Be assured that to be respect,
led abroad we must maintain our place in this
Union"

PROSPECTUS
FOR THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE
IIBRRTY ADVOCATE
J.J. Graves s. J. NJ. smiley, Editors

Notwithstanding the unparalleled pres
sure, which for the last twelve months, has
crampcd and trammelled every depart
ment of the Mechanical, Agricultural aud
Commercial community, the unweariea
and indefatigable energies of American
enterprise, are once more giving evidens
OF a higher and fairer prospect before U.s.
That quiescent attribute, which, for time,
seemed to mark and designate our down
ward procIivity TO carelessness and indf
terence, has fortunately awakened from
its sluggish apathy; and partially disiu.
thralled from the fatal influence Of a oS
blind credulity in the infallibility Of
those whom we have elevated above U.s.
may we not still indulge the hope, that
there is yet held in reserve, a happyrs'
suit in the experiment of this last and
once purest Of Republicsa
lnstigated, in part, by that grand revol
ution which has already commenced, and
which is still going on in the opinion Of
the people, so far as respects the politica
relations existing between the respective
States and the Federal Government, the
present Proprietor is about to embark n
the publication of the Liberty Advocate.
Two years ago, this journal dated its
origin, at a period when, in this County,
it had many difficulties to encounter, and
the strongest opposition to contend with
The enduring, and, as we conceive, ortho
dox principles, which have nurtured and
sustained the journal through ''good and
through evil report" had then in their ia.
fancy, but minority which sustained
II. But, the resistless march OF human
reason, before whose advance all obsta'
Giles must ultimately recede, has brought
about brighter and fairer dawn; and
the Phllanthropist and the patriot can
now look in prospective upon the re-
visit OF those purer days, which once
pointed to the destiny Of our much b.
loved country.
The political creed Of the Advocate will
be the same which il has heretofore ad'
vocated. State Rights and STATE Sovsv'
e.gnty, will be the arterial action which
shall give life and animation to its politi-
cal character.--But, while exercising te'
naclty for those principles which will new
or yield to caprice, the columns Of this jour.
nal will, at all times, be open to liberal
discussion, and offered as ready channel
TO the tide Of passing events, and an &C.
ceDtable ORGAN nc syAnaral scienc0 and use
Iul knowledge.
We cordially invite the patronage ofall
hose who concur with us in sentiment, as
we'll as the magnsnimity cfthose who die
ent from us in politics, Incorporate in sus-
aiming the press. The Advocate wi II IN

Every effort to bring into disrepute the hallcWd
