Summoned to Washington City, to aid Mr..

animated by the hope of beng useful to the
great cause, which so long has enlisted my mind

time, to leave my native State, and to resign in
to the hands of my colleague, MIR. Carlisle, the
control of the Telegraph
It's, however, neither my design nor my de-
sire to forfeit my domicil in Carolina, nor to
renquish my interest in the Telegraph, though
the term of my absence will depend upon the
exigencies of the times, and the need ofmy
humble services at Washington-and | feel as

make, even while availing myself OF a mark of
confidence from the Southern members of Con
gress, rs fattering rs it is unmerited. AS they
have passed by others more worthy, to select
me, would prove myself unworthy, Qfthat sig
nal compliment, were to permit any reasons
of a mere personal character, to prevent my
acceptance ofso delicate and difficult a trust
and have, therefore, accepted it, in the same
spirit in which it was rendered.

out the State will confer favor by giving this
Card an insertion in their respective papers,
F The announcement above made will be
read by the readers of the Telegraph with re-
gret, while to the remaining Editor, whose in
tercourse with his colleague thus retiring for
season, was still more intimate, it must cause
still deeper regret SO far as his own feelings are
concerned
The circumstances however which have oc.
casoned the event afford at the same time some
mitigation of the pangs of parting, and we can
but acquiesce in the call which has removed a
colleague to sphere in which his exertions
may be of more avail to the cause which we
have at heart, and to which the Telegraph has
been devoted.
To the advocacy of that cause it is still pledg-
ed, and whatever falling off kind patrons and
readers may perceive in ability, there shall be no
change in zeal, fidelity, or honest epdeayors to
vindicate a cause whose inherent justice can
give strength even to the feeblest advocate.
