:Kr. Editor: Looking upon dsunion as a
"fxed fact'-that this rotten and corrupt con-
Germ cannot much longer hold together, | ven
turc to predict that the following blessings will
result to the South t,ercfrom:
A more extended, purer and rational liberty,
with greater harmony and good will amongthe
members of the Southern Conlederacy, than
has ever existed between them under the pre-
sent Union.
Free trade, with greater prosperity to all the
various interests, agricultural, mechanical, COM
mercial and manufacturing cotton never less

Greater strength and greater security to oar
domestic institutions, with in entire stoprage
Of border tl,;eving and kidnapping, on the part
of Il e NORTH.
Greater extension Of education, religion and
mo aity.
More +; ilrosds, and internal improvements
generally.
Negroes and land increased in value from
30 to 100 per cent.

Messrs. Editors: regret the necessity I'M
posed upon me to ask space in your paper lor
the following communication the reasons Tor
asking its publication at this time is, First, The
continual Misrepresentation OF the article II puo,
lished, June 4th, signed an Old Methodist
in the Columbia Telegraph) by communlca-
tions written to various papers In the State.
Secondly. The false position am placed in
bv the various explanations given to that piece.
Some suppose it to be IN attack Oh the Meth
odist Discipline generally: others say it is nm
attack upon the Preachers OF the South Caroll-
M Couierencn, aud others contend that 1t Is
aimed at some dignitary of the Church that !
have a dispositi. to make war upon. 10 all
this calmly reply, that yield to no man in
my hearty devotion to the discipline OF the vi.
E.Church South, excepting always what it says
about slavery, not one uord of rhich L te''er'
As to the 3. G. Conference, the one not even
alluded to in the peice, knew when wrote it
that the delegation from s. G.. all voted right;
and [ knew that fact was known to all those
etlat read newspapers; and carefully omitted
s,ey ailuson whatever to the "course' OF that
BODY, or any member thereof-nor an at al!
responsible Tor the various uo'e d, ''Ir'' w
shave appeared in different papers defending tGat
BODY and meeting charges that never have been
made against them-and as to my private opln-
ions of any man. in the church, or out oft, hav-
ing anything to do with my writing what did,
is as false as it is contemplate. But the piece
will show that my attack was made on the A.,
who voted to retain the section on slavery, and
no others; not one Of these have | ever had an
uukind feeling towards, and this is my great
sin that brought before thacommunlty an act
of church legislation that for Inconsistency
finds no parallel in the whole course of church
history-but must close and let the article
speak for itself ,,,r
