| CHARLESTON, May e, P. M.-Seventeen add
| tOnal delegates arrived today.
| The resolutions and address, reported bv the com
| mlltee, and to be discussed tomorrow, are to tn
| effect that South Carolina cannot submit TO he
| wrongs without dishonor ami ruin, and that it
| necessary for her to relieve herself thereirom ehe
| with or without the cooperation of other State.
| That cooperation is worth many sacrifices but nc
| the sacrifice involved in submission. The right {
| secession is essential to the sovereignty of tn
| States, and the denial Of that right by Congres
would furnish a cause for its exercise. The mse
ing looks with confidence and hope to the regula
STATE Convention, which is to be held in about
year, to exert the sovereign power of the State i
defence of its rights, at The most practicable perio
and in the most eii-c,ual manner. The meetr
also looks to the State Legislature to adopt Il
most speedy and effecua measures to effect II
| same ends.
