Mr.. HOLMES AND MIR. ADAMS.

There is very severe law in South Carolina
against me introduction OF free negroes in any
manner, or under any pretcXt, into the common
wealth. negro OF that class, who in
haD'taht o. Rhode Island, having gone 20 Charles
ton as cook steward on board a vessel was
Judged to come under lis provisions. Judpe
Johnson, before whom the case was tried decided
mat The law was IN direct conflict with the Con-
slituuon of the United States. subsequently
diihculles have arisen under that law, and more
particularly one in which the negro was subject
oil Great Britain, and which threatened to pro-
duce collision. Mr. Holmes, of South Carolina.
was reported to have said, and we perceive by the
debate published to-day, acknowledges that he
dld say, 1t would be better TO dissolve the Union
than to repea! that law, if the question should
arise.
MT. Adams last year presented petition for
the dissolution of the Union, because CONGRESS-
refused to rcscnd the 2lst rule. Now, which of
these gentlemen is the truest friend to the Union
we leave it to others TO decide. An attemp. was
made 10 eXpel the one from the House what
would he the action taken with regard to the
other, were the case to arise and he in conse-
fuence OF II to make motion TO the same effect,
we do not pretend to say.
We should think it was time for South Caro-
lima and her politicians to be done with this sub
Joct 1t Is old, threadbare, and has entirely lost
It's interest and its raw-he and bloody bones eff
feet. No man is frightened by it now. because
no man believes the threat will ever be carried
O" " 'Nr'ner oecssie", gat of the cui de sac
INTO which the spirit Of bravado had forced them,
and we do not believe they will ever get them
selves INTO such another scrape with their eyes
open. What coud South Carolina do, if She
were out OF the Union! If she were allowed
quietly to secede and up for herself Tomorrow,
what, we ask, could she do, surrounded by The
States of this Republic, growing every day in
strength and possessing already physical force
which, If properly directed, makes her match
Tor any nation Of the earth Nothing, absolutely
nothing, and her leaders know it as well as any
one else Their threats Of dissolving the Union
are Idle words, scarce worth the breath it costs TO
form Them.
In the days Of the Revolution, South Carolina
was unable, notwithstanding tho galanry of Ma
non, Sumpter, and her other brave and dis,n-
gnished sons, To defend herself against a small
BRUSH force OF five or six thousand men. Corn
wallis and Rawdon deporied and hanged her bra
vest and most valuable citizens al their pleas ure
She was defended by the arms Of The Union on
that occasionally the brave troops of MARYLAND
and Virginia, commanded by despiscd Yankee,
a native OF the little State of Rhode Island -
nc courage Of her sons-and il was very
brI!iiant-was insufficient TO rescue her from The
hand OF the Spoiier.' She had not the plIysi-
cal strength then--she has il not now.
