Senators Rhett and Houston.

Our Senator Mr.. Rhett, has recently in the Sen
ate of The United States, corrected some OF the
msstatcments, and untrulhs OF the notorious Tex
an hero in regard to South Carolina and her laws,
Constitution, &c. Mr.. Houston i'll seems wrilli-
ing under the lash, which has been applied to him,
and will let no opportunity pass, of indulsing his
wrath against palme4p-dom for the castigalion
which he has received from time TO time for his
misconduct We think Mr.. Rhett, has sufficient
IL shown that his late 81 tissue OF untruths are
gratuitous and unqualified assertions utterly des-
ttute of foundation" General Houston states
upon his authority that the Constitution Of Sou h
Carolina is obviously fashioned upon an arstocrat-
ic model.
"lhc people, as such, have very little con-
troll OF affairs. No man can vote who does not
own fifty acres of lin or the equivalent, or pay
a high tax. No man can he Il member of the
Legislature whose freehold is not worth one
hundred pounds sterling, clear OF debt, or be
the Governor with less than fifteen hundred
pounds sterlinA free of debt. The elections
are all confined to members OF the Legislature.
That body elects or appoints all the officers of
any grade, from the Governor down to the
Sherilfs and Parish Judges The Legislature
elects the Senators of the United States, Elec-
tors for President and Vice President of the
United States, and Can change or amend the
Constitution when it secs ft The Govern
ment is complete oligarchy-cven more SO
than in Rhode Island under its royal charter.
One of two facts must be evident: the people
have no genuine spirit Of freedom, or they
would not have submitted so long to this op-
pressivc dominion of mere wealth. In no 9th.
er State would Il have been tolerated so tamely.
In Rhode Island they have turned when trod-
den upon, but in South Carolina they seem to
wear their chain without amurmur; and yet the
sclfcOnstitutcd leaders of her councils have the
cool impudencc to designate others as 'submis.
sionists' These descendants ofthe Hugucnots
and cavaliers have peculiar notions OF freedom
precise the notions that would fit them Tor
snug little monarchy, if they could nulllty the
laws and Constitution of the Federal Govern
mcnt, or sccede from tho Conlcderacy. This
state of things clearly proves that, of all men
in the world, the good people of the Palmetto
State arc the best adapted to faction and dis
cord"
After Mr.. Rhett has examined each article in
Mr.. Houston's version of the Constitution, and
explained the true statement ofthings, as they
really exist, showing that large number Of the
local officers are elected by the people, indeed the
people in the end elect al! their officers. He shows
the Texan Senator, that the election Of United
States Senator, by the Legislation, is aProvislon
ofthe Constitution ofthe United States, fact which
every man ought to know-to say nothing OF
Senator'S who like our San Jacinto hero, can de.
