Phe Charleston SecesSioniSts,
WAsH[NGTON, ApT1I g.

Next Monday is the day fixed for
the Convention Of delegates from the
State Rights Associations of the
several districts in South Carolina, at
Charleston. The question to be agi-
tated and decided is whether it is ex-
pedient for South Carolina to secede
Immediately fro M the U MON, or
await the cooperation of other South
erl States. The party in favor of
SEPARATE State action and immediate
SECESSION seems TO be very active and
decided. This Convention will,
through its recommendations, decide
the course of the State Convention
which is to meet next winter, and de-
termine the future action Of the
State, Reporters from the North for
the Southern press are already, it is
said, on the spot, and the Charleston
papers will also, it is stated, give full
accounts of the proceedings of the
Convention in Charleston. These
proceedings will be looked to with
interestnow that political anti-slavery
has achieved such signal triumphs,
by the election Of its pledged repre-
sentatives to the q. S. Senate from
several leading States.

From tile Na@lriHe Union.
A true Test.

The democratic House in Pennsy[
yania, S; Us the Richmond Enquirer,
pa sed a bill repeating all the sections
of the a et Of 1917, that conhieted
with the provisions Of the National
Constitu tion for the recovery Of fu-
gitive sl4 yes-but under the sinister
influence of Johnston, the free soil
wbig Governor of the state, the whig
Senate would not adopt the bill.
They struck out all but the portion
repeating that section of the act Of
1917, which prohibited the use of
the jails for securing fugitive slaves.
Had the wings stood up to their dem
ocratic fellow-members, all the o. D.
Ijectionable sections, prohibiting sta te
officers from aiding in the execution
of the. slave law, &c, would have
been blotted out from the Pennsyl-
vania statute books. Even the bill,
in its present shape. was opposed by
all the wings in the senate but teo,
and in the house by the body Of the
same party. Is not this anothHr
proof that nearly all the aid that can
beexpected fromAhe north, for the
constitutional rights of the south, is
| to be found in the ranks of the de-
mocracy, as a party? As the SaEan-
nah Georgian well says:
In regard to the two national or
carnations, it may be said, that the
great strength of the whig party,
being in the north, where anti-slave-
! ry sentiments so generally prevail,
that party is, not entirely, but to a
great extent, an. anti-slavery party:
While on the other hand, the great
strength of the democratic party be-
ing in the south, that party is, to a
very considerable extent, a pro-siave-
ry party!
In choosing then between the two,
southern men must choose the dem
ocratic party. That party, if either
| he, is the party of the constitution;
or, as Mr.. Buchanan has it, the "true
Constitutional Union Party. All
then among US who are not in favor
Iof disunion on the one hand, Or OF a
higher law than the constitution on
the other, should be, not IN the name
but in truth Constitutional Union
men, and to be SO, according to Mr
Buchanan they mus st become demo-
crats-the democratic party being
the s'true constitutional Union Par
| ty.' Let our political connection be
then with Buchanan, Cass, Dallas,
Woodbury. and Dickinson and denoc-
racy, rather than with Seward, Fill
more, Webster and Corwin and whig-
gerry.
