Agriculture, Manufactures, Politics
Literature, Science, and the genera
improvement of the country in all

the Rights QFthe South, the Federdl
CONSTITUTION, and the Integrity Of the
Union of the Stdtes-and opposing
the Anti7Republican, ruinous and cor
ruptng policy of South Cardinals
continuing in the hazards and specu-
luton of Banking.
The Southern Patriot has orig-
mated with, and belongs to am asso-
ciation of gentlemen, who own near
~ a thousand slaves, and are worth
several hundred thousand dollars
This should be regarded by the COM
munity, independent of their honor
their lives and character as some
guaranty of Fidelity to the South,
and at least as an earnest Of their in.
terest in the Justice, Wisdom, and
Stability of the Government.
The Proprietors are under the inn
preston that the growing Importance
of our Town-its heavy Mercantile
and Manufacturing business, the an
ticipated Railroad facilities, and our
present Mail arrangements, together
with the general Intelligence, Pros
perlty and Patriotism Of our District,
must insure the success of {, Fri
weekly Newspaper-giving to the
business community the news and
Telegraphic Dispatches, sooner than
they can be received through the
Tfi.weekIy city papers.
The undersigned have been charg-
ed, by the Proprietors, with the Ed
ltorial Department of "The South
ern Patriot" 1t is not without re
luctance that they assume this grave
responsibility; but having done so,
neither time, labor, nor energy, shall
be wanting to make the Paper wor-

its effect. Since the year 1891, about nine
hundred and twenty-seven millions of duties
have been levied, Of which the South has
had to pay three hundred and sixteen millions
more than they would have done under sys-
tenn Of direct taxation. All this has been taken
from them and given to the North. He fur
ther considered the manner in which the money
had been expended Take, for instance, pen
sions. Nobody would deny that the South had
sent the most soldiers into the revolutionary war.
But 43 millions Of dollars had been paid for pen
sions to the North, whilst the South had received
ut 10 millions. Again, take the Public Lands,
ll2 millions of acres Of which had been furnished
by the South, and only about rs millions by the
North Still the South had been compelled to
take the benefit Of three millions less than one
half II gave four-ffths of the whole, and they,
the North has received two acres to its one. Again.
the fishing bounties Southern fishermen have
received only two millions of dollars to the North s
ten millions. Taken in the aggregate, the results
are startling Mr.. r.. proceeded to carry out his
deductions from these and many other statistics
which he read and said that the result of the whole
was that the South was continually retrogadng,
while the North was advancing; not from superb
or industry and enterprise, but from system of
unjust and tyrannical taxation. The North had
been making 40 millions annually by fishing
bounties alone The Union has been the great
est blessing to her that she ever had. Great Brit
ain, even, never had such profitable colony, as
the South has been to New England. Aft speak
ing for some time on The right of States to secede
peaceably--forclbly if opposed, Mr.. R. con-
cluded with touching allasion TO his late col
league, Mr.. CALHOUN, to his last appearance in the

then showed he would not call it malignity. He
