= SOUTH CAROLINA absolutely refuses It
TO be comiorted She regards the election O
Senators WADE of Ohio, and FISH Of New
York, as preconcertcd personal attack on her
She is, therefore packing up her things" fol
secession. good ma ny think she even con-
templates suicide ; and we are afraid, when
she comes to hear that ROGER s. Baldwin. is
likely to be reelected TO the post he so ably
fills as u. 5. Senator for Connecticut, she will
strange herself outright. We hope not, how
ever. We want her to live for the amusement
OF" the rest of mankind" We assure her that
a II the Fugitive Slaves that we can't hone silly
and fairly keep we will honestly and fairly
send back. We hope the last ,ston case will
prove g bread-and-milk poultice' to her bile,
and have an emoent effect upon her " feel
inks"
A correspondent of the Charleston Mercury
is very rampant. He calculates, like an astro-
homer, the time when South Carolina will
shoot madly from her sphere" Hear him -
AS to the time when the State will sccede, that
will be, by unanimous consent, left to the decision
OF the convention. II a Southern Congress should
meet, ana propose ellcent measures every arOln-
ian will rejoice in and prefer united action. II it fails
then there will be but one path for South Carolina
to pursue to cecede from the Union, unless by a
certain day the Constitution is amended the right OF
secession affirmed, and the boundaries OF California
reduced to 30 30.
Hadn't South Carolina better take warm
bath, aud couple of boxes of Senator Bran
d etl's Pills?
