timents as to the course we should pursue, we
may knde the animosty or excite the jealousy
of other Southern States. On the contrary,
they would be stimulated and encouraged by
our example. The South, now for the first
time, perceives the insecurity and ignominy OF
her situation in the Union. She appreciates the
course of this State formerly. She now looks
to this State to set an example, if indeed this
State has bcenin earnestin in what shehas all along
said 1t becomes South Carolina. then, to lace
the music and to meet coming events boldly
and without equivocation. She despars OF the
Union. Then let her openly say so, by her
statesmen, and by her people. Her motives
will be appreciated; and, ight, her foresi ght
admired 1t will, now, that the Southern Peo-
pie are coming to themselves, no longer l'e in
the power of dcmagogues to slander her, as dis
loyal. These changclngs who cater to popu.
lar favor, are, or very soon will be, compelled
to side with the South and South Carolina.
Let us then freely express our opinions
amongst ourselves and before the world 1t is
time to speak out. The language of truth and
soberness is never rash or ill-tmed. Let US re-
member that "the highest wisdomis often rash,
ness to towards and folly to fools" The crisis

buckle on the armor:

Thirty-First COngress--1st Session.
WASHINGTON, July l, 1850.


SESATE.-A(ter short executive session,
the Senate took up a bill granting bounty lands
to seamen and marines VINO served in the guilt
and in the Pacific during the Mexican war.-
The subject was discussed and laid aside.
The adjustment bill was taken up, and MIR.
Cooper concluded his remarks in favor Of the
bill.
Mr.. Upham followed in opposition to the bill,
and gave way, without concluding, to motion
for adjournment
NJ. Yulce submitted a proposition for the
termination Of the present session OF Congress
ON the 18th August.
In answer to the Senate resolution Of the
9th, Il message was received from the Prcsl-
dent, stating that all the orders and corrcspon-
eence relative to New Mexico and Texas have
heretofore been communicated, and that the
Executive had not yet received al official no.

Convention. The Senate adjourned.
July 2.-lu the Senate, the joint resolution
of Mr.. lulce, lor the termination Of the pres
ent session OF Congress on the lst August, was
taken up
MIR. Clay and Mr.. Webster opposed it.
MIR. Douglass said that if Congress should
have to sit until the 4th Of March, it ought not
to adjourn till the present agtating questions be
settled.
iir. Footc was in favor of the adjournment.

In regard to the claim of Texas, he repeated
that it had no foundation. Texas was entitled
to admiration and respect: but she knew well
how to coin money out of admiration.

ANOTHER CURTIUS.

Fourteen wears ago we travelled North with
two gentlemen. In public houses, stage Goa
ches, on steamboats, and canal boats, we were
beset by persons keen to discuss the slavery
question. One of our company never indul-
ged this appetite for debate. He arrested the
cateclising vociferous philanthropist was a.
bout to practice, by remarking that this question
would some day be decided by the musket, and
he would await that time.
That time is nearly come. 1t depends upon
two things. The determination of the North to
maintain the false position they have assumed,
and the resolution to supersede their paper ar
guments with the arguments of iron and lead.
if their consciences will not let them 60 back.
and their obligations to humanity compel them
to draw the sword, then what we have said is
true-the time for this final debate is nearly
come. We know very little of what is current
among politicians. Our intercourse has been
with religious men mainly. We have convers.
ed in families where God is worshipped, and
there we have seen the calm, settled conviction
that the only thing to be feared might be the
pusillanimlty of some Southern members of
Congress. We tell our Northern brethren that
when the time comes to try the last argument,
they will have to enforce it against the opposi-
ton of Southern mothers and ministers. 1t is
for the North to count the cost; that is no part
of our business. They have favorite theory to
maintain; we our fresides, our affairs and our
honor.
We are no "alarmists" We eschewed the
excitement of party politics more than twenty
years ago, when we began to preach the Cos
pel. But the times demand that every man
should do his duty. Fanaticisln has placed the
powder.mine under the foundations Of our Re-
public, and Northern editors are coolly draw
ing their matches and smoking their segars over
the explosive material. We do our duty by
warning of the danger.-Southern Baptist.

We reply to Massachusetts,. that negroes are

in Massachusetts, when we formed our associa-

see fit to citizeuize monkeys, it will furnish no
reason why we should allow them such rights
in the streets of Charleston. But in this com
plant she again torgets what was done on this
subject by her pilgrim fathers. Let her turn
to her statute books, and find that by law free
negroes who venturcd within her limits were
not only confined to prevent them from
mischief, but were, under certain regulations,
also put to hard labor in their warehouses II

Startling Rumors.

The Washington Southern Press of Thursday
has the following Startling rumors. The other pa.
pers of that city make no mention OF them, buttbe
Washington correspondents Of the New York pa
pers express, the same reports as current at the
seat Of government.
1t is lumored here that despatch was received
last evening, announcing the march of Texan
troops on Santa Fe.
Ii is also rumored that special Cabinet meetings
on the subject has, been held.
A governor of Southern State. said to be Gen,
Quitman, has sent telegraphic despatch to this
city, that he is ready to march with ten thousand
men to support Texas.
We hope it may be correct The unheard of
atrocity, ofthe aggressive course pursued toward
the South, warns us to meet the conflict ere il is
too late A bribe has been offered Texas, to yield
up large pert of her territory, to make free-sol
of-and as if they anticipated failure BY that
means, they intend to wrest 1t. by force, away
They forget, that the Alamo, is linkin Texan his
tory. Texas need have no fear-the South will
stand BY her to a man. Gen. Quitman, with his
ten thousand gallant Mississippiuns, will not be
alone-for on the first battle field we promise them
the sweeping swords of the Palmetto shall wave.
Strike the blow about the ancient walls of Santa
Fe that shall tell base aggressors we have not for
gotten our rights. We cannot express our admi-
ration of the character OF Gov, Quitman. The
laurels he has heretofore won, is but small por=
ton of that wreath which is yet to adorn his brow,
whether won on the soil of Texas, or elsewhere,
in defence of Southern rights-or far southwark
in that Isle, 81 the gem of the river sea-" Not a
heart in the South but throbs with the deepest anx
iety-not man but what is nerved to WELD the
sword Let Texas strike the blow if it must be
struck, and all the Palmetto asks, is "Pace on

exceedingly warm, dry and unpeasant-the ther-

good. We were, however, favored on Sunday

Rev. Thomas B. Russell.

The many friends of this gentleman will, no
doubt, be gratifed to learn that he has SO far sue
ceeded we'll in the new position he has been called
to occupy as the President of Oak Bowery Female
College, Ala. We use the term so TAR, because
this institution is yet in its infancy and may bere
garded as an experiment. We have entire conf
dence in Mr.. Russers ability as Scholar, to be-
lieve that the College will succeed, Nj. Russers
talents are of no ordinary grade, and his attain
ments, as well as excellent moral and socialquali-
ties elninently qualify him for such position.
Although his sojourn amongst us was of short
duration yet lie won for HIMSELF in this brief peri
cd, many warm and devoted fiends. We ear
nestly hope success may abundantly attend his
future efforts From the Southern Christian Ad-
vocate of the 18th June, we extract the following
notice relating to the examination of the College
referred to-:
On Saturday, the Rev. Thomas B. Russell
President of the College, delivered an excellent adj
dress on education. He remarked on1he subject
generally but dwelt particularly OIL female educa-
ton. From this address, and brother Russers
manner of examining his classes, It was manifest
that he thoroughly comprehended and duly appre-
ciated the obligations and duties Of his position,
and was highly gifted in the practical part of his
profession; and aIthoughhe has not headed this
institution long enough to ingraft himself upon it's
character, yet his plans and systems are at work,
and believe that under the divine blessing he is
destined to establish female college of high char-
acter. He has views of education which adlnlra,
blv adapt him as the instrument Of the Church in
such an institution; views. which contemplate
man, not merely as an actor upon this present
stage ofbeing, but as an immortal being, destined
to higher state, for which the present is prepara-
tory and consequently, he attaches great mpor-
tance to the study Of that book of books, which
alone reveals to man real greatness, and points
him to his highest and mob est destiny.
