public says: " The following letter, received on
the 18th instant at tb9 Post-ofice Department
from the General Postoffice of Great Britain, ex-
hbts very liberal and friendly spirit on the part
of the British Government. Their prompt cour-
tesy in forwarding the mails of the Atlantic by

kind and cordial acknowledgment:

tion At most, then, il is a mooted point, and not
a settled TACT; We entertaining one view Of it,
while majority of the wise and virtuous of other
States, greatly ounumbering Us, hold the opposite
10 we owe them nothing Is it not even due to
our own self respect to review the matter! Surely
we should know that we are right, beyond dispute,
before we should proceed to final act Of the most
fearful import.
And ought we not to consider consequences?
Patriotism demands not of to run madly on to
our country's ruin; and secession, by our State
alone, must prove ruinous. What though no hos
tile army might invade our soil, the United States
must and will oppose Charleston will be shut
out from the rest Of the world her commerce
PERISH her merchants leave her in despair while
from her very suburbs our rice and cotton shall be
carried to Savannah and Augusta for market.
Even now the rivalry of Savannah is not to be
contemned, but let State secede from the
Union, and Charleston must become desolaton
Nor will the blight fall on Charleston only but
on all the State; while taxes increased seven
fold, and the heat Of the present agitation cooling
oil, our very leaders, if they should prove proud
to be found knocking at the door Of the Union for
readmission, shall join the many thousands of our
poverty stricken people in their fight from their
ruined homes to more favored parts. Can patriot
ism demand the sacrifice ~ Patriotism demand the
sacrifice of the State4 Nosaever.
Let us, then, feliow-citizens review our giound.
If a convention we must have, let it not bS con-
vention of boys and half.made men, bu1sof the
wise and sober minded. There is no bathe to be
fought for glory, by secession, but fearful strug-
gle with poverty and high-taxes, hard times with
out hope of improvement, and great and sore
humiliation. And may God grant us deliverance

Thirty years have made great change in the nerna-
tional concerns OF The leading commercial nations. The
power of some has been abaed whilst that of others
has been greatly increased Spain has fallen by the
loss of her colonies commerce and her navy, from first
rate TO thlrd-rate power; and the United States have
assumed in space of time without example in the
worlds history the first rank amongst the nations of the
world.
The United States exercise a controlling influence
which Tor many years was denied even by those affected
by it, and subsequently acknowledged but resisted
whilst at the day resistance has ceased and that
influence is admitted by powerful nations whose policy it
