iseetiiahs, ase just beginning to bound
aud leap as a strong. man. when his
chords have jbsentaken Off: And just
now the whole energy and prejudice Of
The North seem about 10 be arrayed
against these. prospects before us.ssWe.
have been able to look out upon the
promised land, but fear there is much
rising between US and its enjoyment.
The storm and the desert may yet have
to be passed.
High bearing and lofty purpose can
carry US through if united together.
And if we sink all Ipet,y strifes and
personal aspirations in a sincere sdsyo>
ton to the country, and nothing bu5;the N!slie
country, wa, can long preserve our our
rights and our honor, and the Uniontoo.
There is one thing clear, that as.tar
as South Carolina is concerned, she
can never expec, 10 contend for; ascen--
dencywi,h the grea, and powerful states,
either Of the West or the North. / =
We mus. depend for influence upon
our moral and intellectual endo%mehts,
whileother States expect, through their
physical numbers, always TO be able 70
confer the Presidential purple, and with
it, the offices Of Government, we must
strive by our boldness, talent, and de-
votion to truth, to develope the great
principles of Government, and thus
impress ourselves upon the different
factions contending for, power. We
must be faithful and tue to the Consti'
tu,ion-the Country, and its honor. We
must not yield to the growing power and
demands of the West, any more than
we have done to the gross usurpatIons
of the North Fidelity 10 the Const'tu'
ton and its ,trictest Construction must
ever be our, watch words. Let NO
temptations, however great, either IN
the destinations Of future, or the wild
theories of unreeulated genius, ever
seduce South Carolina from the direct
path of duty.to the Constitution; and
devotion to our ancient and cherished
principles. We have great carer
before Us, if we are firm and true. But
if we give, way or sink, our principles,
there is no degradation TOO low for Us Us
to reach, in the future contest for. power
and place. :s,,, e,
Let our young men look to fame and
honor rather than 10 present popularity;
Let them place South Carolinai where
she has ever been, upon high and dis
interested principles-devo,ed to no
man or set Of men on, earth--with3no
feeling, save for our rights, or. interests,
any our common glosY.saJ tssna!.

VERA CRUZ, Oct.
Dear iSirs :--There is very little
news worth reporting, the present Coy
ernment is trying to render. itself popular
by series of rather. liberal measures,
and appears willing to recommence the
campaign more vigorously. Gen. Santa
Anna is about to leave. Mexico in order
to assume the generalship in chief Of the
troops concentrated In San Luis Potosi::
but we confess to,haye the very worst
opinion Of the Mexican Army, and do
not believe. that they will make any
vigorous resistance to the American
troops. The main difficulty will be,
moreover, the entire want Of money, as
in the Golfers of the treasury THERE'S not
even enough wherewilh TO pay the most
necessary and urgent exigencies, and
Tie credit ofGovernment is very much
shaken indeed. 1t is true that the clergy

of dollars, but we do not believe that
this amount will be procured, and even

being rare among both parties.
