Ay, let it come-OpIression's day of doom
Though all the batlements of empire rock.
And tremblc to theii fall. Ay, let it come.
Though the world reel and shudder at the shock
Yet once again let Freedom arise
And toward the heavens stretch their invoking

Claim the eternal justice of the skies,
And call on Freedoms God through all the lands
And let the sounds He better loves to hear
Than chant anthem, from those stor ii plains
Go up once more-the hero-patriot's cheer,
The freemans shout, the clank of falling chains
And once again at holy Freedoms call,
Az graves shall open at the last trumps sound
Let dungeons yawn, and hoary Bastiles fall,
And every hidden cell give up its bound
Secure the Opprcssor rests-but It's the sleep
The blind man takes upon dizzy stoep;

Whose black waves howl inpatient for their prey
What though strange quiet settles on the land

Ever before the heaviest bolts are hurled
Down shuddering spaces from the Thunderer's hand
The mighty tempests that convulsc the world
Are heralded by silence everywhere,
As not warning murmur in the oak
Tells which way comes the lightning scathing stroke
And scarce a fearful whisper in the grass
Foretclls that there the hurricane shall mass
How slept the cities Of the olden time,
Tapped in peace of luxury and crime,

1t is perhaps incumbent on us to state what will
be the course of this paper in the pending can
vass.
We believe we were the first to recommend
the Wings of the district to appoint delegates to
a nominating Convention. We participated in the
meeting which appointed delegates for this city,
and cordially co-operated with others there in
efforts to ensure harmonious settlement of the
differences that existed in the Wing party. Hav-
ing thus been personally a witness to the fairness
with which the Convention was constituted, so
far as this city concerned, and having no rea-
to doubt that the same fairness was observ-
ed in all the counties, we have no hesitation in
saying that we shall abide by the decision OF the
majority, as indicated by the choice OF the Con-
vention, and give its nomination our support
We have no desire to conceal the fact, that we
should have preferred the selection of some new
candidate, who would De unobjectionable to any
portion of the party; but, we hold that where po-
litica parties exist, party discipline is indispensa

if the wishes of the majority are not respected
To the Wing party of the South, is assigned the
high duty of sustaining the patriotic endeavours of
our Wing President to preserve the Union and
the Constitution. tits, in our humble judgment,
the clear duty of Wings to sustain heartily Wing
nominees as the proper and only mode of per-
forming this duty We shall support Mr.. Botts
however much we may have disapproved of some

EmlarQo on SoalLh Carolina.

We have briefly alluded to the doctrine pro-
claimed by the Hon. Thomas S. Bocock, in his
speech at Charlotte Court House, that although
South Carolina has, in his opinion, right to Sc
cede, get if she dc, the other States would have
a right, and ought, to fence her round with
prohbitory tariff, that she would be const rained
by the discomforts of her situation to come back
into the Union A theory so remarkable demands
some farther commentary. And this we can best
make by calling attention to its practical effect
The doctrine of the right of secession irrespec-
tive of cause processes to be the agis for the
ecurty of State Rights. But what sort of Sc
curity is that which is gained 10y the idle and ex-
pensive process of going out of the Union mere
ly to be forced to come into it again Will a
State be likely to obtain better protection of her
interests and rights, when she leaves the proud
position of an equal with ALL to assume the atti-
tude of an humble petitioner to all Mr.. Bocock's
extraordinary notion makes answer in the affirma-
tive, but every discriminating mind must eschewa
belief so nnenable. More than this, Mr.. Bocock
is an ardent advocate of free trade with call the
world and the rest of mankind" except, perhaps,
the Yankees. And can it be. that he, devotee
of Mr.. Calhoun's latter-day creed (for in the re-
publican days of the British war, and Mr.. Monroe's
administration, there was no more strenuous up
holder of protection to manufactures than John
e. Cahoun)-can it be- that the representative of
John Randolph's district, and the reasserter of
his notification resolutions, now proposes an en-
barge upon South Carolina, for resisting meas.
ures of Congress which he himself has denounced
as unjust and oppressive to the South Mr.
Bocock is gentleman of exceeding ingenuity,
but he surely cannot make his strange position
clear before the people of the Charlotte district
We wish some of those South Carolinians, who
could not be polite to Mr.. Fillmore at the White
Sulphur Springs. could pass through the district
and hear what one of the Virginia Sympathizers
meditates in regard to South Carolina. 1t might
have the good result of informing the citizens of
that State as to the real extent of Disunionismin
Virginia; for the necessary inference of the vsi-
fers would be, that if believer in Calhounism has
to atone fer unfolding the right of secession by
devisIng tie scheme of nonintercourse to make
the right migratory, and this in The strongest slave
holding section OF the State, there is sns hope
OF cooperation from Virginia, either before or
after the act of secession.

Never was nob'er victory gained on any
political field, Than the triumph achieved by Gen.
Henry S. Foote over his Disunion opponent
Gen. John A Quitman. The latter had every
advantage except the great one of being on the

THE SECESSION DOCTRINE OF VIRGINIA

THE SECESSION DOCTRINE OF VIRGINIA.
The editor of the Virginia Republican, the Democra
tic organ of Berkeley county, has come out in strong
article against the doctrine OF Secession. He declares
the principle 10 the present condition of the country TO
be practical question OF startling magn ude-ihat 1t
should be carefully considered by every voter in the Sc
lection Of representative in the next Congress OF the
United States, and he proclaims 1t to be "a queston
above party and that the people, without enqurng VINO
leads, will follow in the right track. - AteS. Gag.
We do not know whether this excellent saying
of the "Virginia Republican" was uttered before
or after the retirement of Mr.. Byrd from the Con-
gre.siona canvass in the Berkeley district. Ger
tainly it fits to admiration the case OF the Hon.
Mr.. Bedinger. who is now the sole Democratic
candidate, by virtue Of some important qcslifica-
tons and notifications, if not notifications, of his
secession views. With all his new born attach
ment to the Union, however, it is not to be suppo-
sec that Mr.. Bedinger has got himself clearly out
of the Republicans category of prescription
No matter how violent may be the determination
of Virginia Calhoun man to adhere to the Union,
he holds on with unyelding pertinac city to the alb
stract right of State to secede without being
responsible to her sister States for the injury in
volyed in the act. Probe politician OF this class
on tfie question presented by the threats of South
Carolina and he will aver that he is not for dis
solving the Union, declare that he hopes South
Carolina will stay her unwse course, and perhaps
fairly acknowledge that she would do wrong to
secede. Open his bag little farther, and you
may descry the cat coied up in the remotest cor
ner, in the shape of the doctrine of peaceable Sc
cession as of right. Thereby hangs the tail of
all his politics. He has been looking for South
Carolina to go out of the Union and then the
question will be, not whether she had cause for
going, but whether she had the right to go; and
upon this issue he hopes to rally large party in
the South. In view of what South Carolina is
daily threatening the Virginia Republican" just
lv declares this question of secession to be one OF
startling magnitude. We hope the editor will
take care to sound Mr.. Bedinger carefully in re-
gard to it, and publish to his readers the result
of his ipouiries
