see nothing that shall vary the prospect, and
cloud the setting Of his day"
Compare with this the magnificent invoca-
tion of the Father of his Country, by Mr.
WEBSTER:
''And now, fellow-citizens, if this vision
reality; il Washington actually were now amongst
US, and if he could draw around him the shades Of
the great public men of his own days, patriots and
warriors, orators and statesmen, and were to ad-
dress in their presence, would he not say TO US,
'Ye Of this generation, Irejoice and thank God
for being able to that our labors and tolls and
sacrifices we're not in vain. You are prosperous,
you are happy you grateful; the FIRE Of liberty
burns brightly and steadily in your hearts, while
DUTY and the LAW restrain it from bursting forth
in wild and destructive confagration. Cherish
liberty, you love it; cherish it's Securities, as
you wish to preserve it. Maintain the Constitu-
ton which We labored painfully to establish,
and which has been TO you such source of inesti-
mable blessings Preserve the union Of the States,
cemented as it was by our prayers, tears, and
our blood Be true to God, TO your country, and to
your duty So shall the whole Eastern World follow
the morning TO contemplate you as a nation;
shall all succeeding generations honor you, as
they honor US; and 30 shall that Almighty Power
protects you, shower its everlasting blessings upon
you and your posterity.
"Great father of your country we heed your
words feel their force if you uttered them
with life of flesh and blood. Your example teaches
us; your affectionate addresses teach us your
public life teaches your sense of the value of the
blessings of the Union Those blessings fathers
have tasted, and we have tasted, and still taste.
Nor do we intend that those who come after shall
be denied the same high fruition. Our honor, as
well as our happiness, is concerned. We cannot,
we dare not, we will not betray our sacred trust.
We will not hch from posterty the treasure placed
in hands to be transmitted to other generations
The bow that guilds the clouds in the heavens-the
pillars that uphold the frmament, may disappear
and fall away in the hour appointed by the will of
God; but until that day comes, or so long our
lives may last, no ruthless hand shall undermine
that bright arch of union and liberty which spans
the continent from Washington to California
Are there two higher pictures of orstory
in the language2 Has history ever answered
prophecy with more distinctness2 Have the
mighty spirits of the past and present spoken
and responded across the abyss of mortality
itself with more clearness2
1t is due to the memory of the friend of
America that the lesson Of wisdom which he
addressed to his own Government, in behalf of
America, should be read norc; the importance
''of keeping up the concord of the empire, by a
unity of spirit" is not less than it was in
IVA.
We should like that every patriot in the
land should have these noble orations bound
together, as the oracle and response, as the
foretelling and fulflment of American great
ness.

sion Of battle il was the future Of Amsrica which
filled their eyes with inspiring vision-a great,
happy, powerful country, dispensing freedom and
civilization 10 all mankind. Could they at that
moment have ioreseen the spectacle of disconient
and divided States, their arms would have fallen
pasied to their sides and the battle Of Fort Moul
srie have ended in defeat inste ad Of victory.
We doubt not that South Carolina inherits the
vaor, the chivalry and the courtesy of her revou.
tionary ancestors. But she has lost all their broad
deep and high-tone Americansm of sentiment.
They had known and felt the bitterness Of pro-
vincal condition; the bitterness and weakness of a
mere section. Their descendants have never tasted
the cup of humility of which their fathers drank.
Hence the rankness of their discomfort. They
meet their great anniversary as Carolinians, not
as Americans; they hurl eloquence, satire and
upon their country; they revel as rapturousy
in the anticipation of its overthrow did the he
roes of Fort Moultrie in the hope of its establish
ment. We look upon such scene with unfeigned
sorrow, for it indicates an alienation of feeling
from the common country 80 profound that we ut
tery despair of ever again witnessing the restora-
tion of thorough American feeling in State
whose people, by their private virtues. command
universal respect, and make US regret the more
the political vagaries of their public men.

and courage in South Carolina who will not
submit to this unmanly tyranny, nor permit
their free thoughts to be stiied by any amount
Of gasconade and bravado. A shining instance
of this is to be found in toast, which
WAS offered at a dinner OF the malcontents in
Charleston, South Carolina, ON the late Fourth
of July. One of the company having proposed
to hang the PRESIDENT and his Cabinet in GER
tain contingencies, gentleman got up and
gave the following just sentiment:
President FILLMoRE-A patriotic statesman,
who would maintain the integrity of the Union by
vndicatng and supporting the rights of the
States"
AS an example ofhow much more bad temper
there is in South Carolina at tho present time
than good judgment, we clip the following
from the Charleston .News of the 9Th instant:
"The report of the celebration at Clinton, in this
State, comes TO us with startling incident that
throws all other expressions of violence, which
have crept into other celebrations, into shadow.
II is stated in the Southern Standard of this mora
ing, that Edmund Bellinger, esq, engaged in a
discussion at that place the 4th, on the pending
controversy, in the of which he asserted
that if the commercial interests of Charleston were
clog to the State, then he agreed with Capt Allen
that we had better make second Moscoto of the city
We presume that Captain Allen was the first utter
er of this inhuman sentiment. The endorser stands
of course in the same predicamsnt as the utterer
We hope there is some mistake in this We can
not conceive that there exists public man who
would address audience in South Carolina in
such strain If it is otherwise. we have fallen in
deed on perious times, tinctured with the worst
spirit of revolutionary phrenzy, at war not only
with true patriotism, but ordinary humanity
This will doubtless be pleasant news for the
GARRIsoNs, the PHILLIPsEs, the PARKERs,
and their confederates, who, under show OF
love for the South, are now trying to under
mine and destroy her chief institution.

Disguised Enemies of the South.

Everybody has remarked the singular unity
Of action between the Abolitionists Of the North
and the Disunionists of the South That a
large number Of the young men of South Caro-
lima are actuated in their present Insane pur-
poses against the Federal Union by patriotic
motives, we can readily admit; but that they
are artfully played upon by old and crafty Abo-
ltionists who hope to overthrow the institution
Of slavery by affected zeal in its defence, there
is also but too much reason to believe Look
at some of these persons who have sought to in
fame the mind of the South after their previ-
Gus diabolical anticipations were thwarted by the
passage of the Compromise acts. Are there
not of this number Quaker abolitionists and 9th
or ready adventurers from the free States, who
have labored necessarily to keep up this ex-
element? Is it not notorious and frequently
proclaimed fact, that they who own no slaves,
some who never owned any, and others who own
but few, are loudest in their denunciatons of the
peace measures, and most furious In their advo-
cacy Of disunion? As in revolutionary France,
when ANACHARsIs CLooTz was better patriot
than LAFAYETTE. we find these arch demagogues
trying to create reign of terror in South Caro-
lima, and to stiflea free expression ofopnon there,
while clamoring for the rights offreemen. But it
remains to be seen whether the men Of age,
experience, character, and property in that
State will suffer their all to be swept away by
this turbulent torrent. We occasionally see
indications Of more moderate and healthful
current Of affairs. There are yet men Of sense

The Richmond Times refers to "the rumored
negotiation of considerable sale of coupon
Virginia bonds at par as an unfortunate COM
mencement of new financial policy
We are authorized to state that the only sale
at par was for very limited amount. but
little more than 100000. That it was made
before any development of the financial condi-
tion of the State had been made-perhaps un-
der some temporary exigency. That it will
not be repeated, since par offers for the stock

WASHINGTON:
SATURDAY MORNING. JULY "a. 1851.


"Theseries of measures to which have alluded
are regarded by me as a settlement, in principle
and substance-a final settlement-of the danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced. -
'By that adjustment we have been rescued from
the wide and boundless agitation thatsurrounded
US, and have firm, distinct, and legal ground
to rest upon. And the occasion, trust, will JUS
tify me IN ExHoRrINe MY couETRYMEN TO RALLY
sros AND MAINTAIN THAT GROUND as the best, if
not the only means, Of restoring peace and quiet
to the country, and maintaining nviolate the in
'tegrity Of the Jnion.''
[PREsIDERT FILLMoRE's MESSAGE
''The Presidents message, at theopening of the
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
'istration of the Government, in regard to what
ARE called the Adjustment Compromise mea-
'sures of last session That opinion is that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
finalsettlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
'were not free from imperfections, yet, in their
mutualdependence and connexion, they formed
{ a system Of compromise the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
Opinions. and that therefore they should be ad-
hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation to
guard against evasion abuse. Thatopinion, 80
. far as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
: will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace ofthe country requresthis; the security OF
. the Constitution requires this; and everyconside-
nation of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message il does not expect to stand at all %

These are sad questions. They are strange
questions. May they never be propounded ex-
cept by voice devoted TO the integrity of the
Union and the prosperity of the States
We do not choose to comment upon the com
pliment to "English broadsdes" contained in
the quotation. 1t would be in bad taste to
vaust our national prowess. We may say,
however, that the example Of Fort Moultrle
itself proves that "British broadsdes'' brings
little terror to American bosoms. And we ear
nestly trust that any conflict between the two
most enlightened and powerful nations in the
world may depend upon contingency as re-
mote as that Of an alliance, offensive and de-
fensive, with any State of this Union.

FRENoH CONSULATE IN CALIFoRNIA.-Monsieur

in the Courier des Eafs Unis, says it is proposed
to erect the French consular post in San Francisco
to that of consulae general, and to establish
several vice consuates in the interior of California
The deplorabe conflict which took place in the lat
