MR. CALHOUN

We know 1t will not only surprise, but mortify
our readers, to learn that Mr.. Calhoun has joined
The Wings and Abotionists on the war question.
A few days since he made Speech IN the Senate,
in which he Indirectly denounced the administra-
ton for the war; and advocated distinctly the with
drawal of our troops from Mexico, and a disgrace
fnl backing out from the war. This is all we
can now say, and all we would like to-say on
such subject. When John c. Calhoun proves
rocreant, give up.''
The above is from that able and useful Demo
cratic print, the MeckIcnburg Jeffersonian-a pa
per that has always heretofore been one Of Mr.
Cahoun's most decided friends and supporters
But never "give up" friend Hampton-never de
sPair of the Republic. Hold on and fight on
the darkest hour is always just before day. The
South has millions of friends still left, and the
Union of the States rests upon the shoulders Of the
people, The war will go on TO glorious termi
naion and the Tories who oppose it will be crush
cd beneath the car ofthe popular power.
