Governor Seabrook, of South Carolina,
has recommended the Legislature of that bel
ligerent State to make an appropriation of
fifty thousand dollars to be expended in prr-
chasing arms aud the munitions Of war for
the use of the people when any exigency
shall arise. That sum of money would prob
ably be sufficient TO equip one thousand null
Gfers, as nulliiiers should be equipped on Il
march against an enemy. We presume that
the fiery Governor has called on Quattlebum,
Commander, and other military and scientif-
ic gentlemen of the State, and consulted
item on this interesting subject. These
worthless, we suppose, concurred in thinking
that one thousand fre-eating nulliiiers could
