GRAHAMvnLE, Aug. l3, 1861.
GENTLEMEN 81 have to acknowledge the
receipt Of your favor of the 9th inst, and to re-
tnrn you my thanks for the very kind terms in
which you have been pleased to express your ap
probation of my public conduct.
regret extremely that my engagements viii
not permit me to accept your invitation to ad
dress your association on the last Monday in this
month.
| feel satisfied, gentlemen, that the people are
daily becoming convinced that the pledge which
South Carolina has given to the world "nener 10
submit TO the past" can only be redeemed by
SECESSION, as no other measure holds out any
promise of practical resistance The issue is
now reduced to separate Stale action, or acqui-
escence in the mpromise--dis.uise it as we
may .'to this complexion it must come at last y
Co operation in practical resistance cannot be
obtained on past issues, and if to wait for future
ones is not to submit to the past then do moi
know what submission is.
Now these are very plain and simple PROPOSE
tions, and the reople cannot be deceived BY any
false coloring which can be given them Geor
gia has erected her platform-we have de-
nounced, derided, and rejected it. South Caro-
lima must now build hers, and if she rejects sub
mission, as she has sworn to do, she must adopt
secession as the only mode of redeeming hei
pledge, and vindcating her honor and her rights
| have the honor to be, gentlemen,
Very respectfully yonr ob't. servt.,

"a Kentuekian kneels to none bat God"
All! tyran,s, forge thy chains at will ~

Yet thought is free, unfettered STILL
And will not yield to thine
Take, take the gift that Heaven gave.
And let my hearts blood stain thy sod;
But know ye that Kentucky's brave

Ye've quenched fair Freedoms sunny light,
Her music tones have stilled;
And with deep and darkened blight
The trusting heart has filed
Then do We think tina, will kneel
Where such as We have trod.
Nay point your cold and ,hrea.'ning steel.
I'll kneel to mono but God.
As summer breezes lightly rest
Upon gentle river,
And gently on its sleeping breast
The moonbeams softly culver
Sweet thoughts of home light up my brow,
When goaded with the rod; rt.fss
Yet these cannot unman me now
I'll kneel to none but God.
And though sad and mournful tone e
Is coldly sweeping by, M
And dreams of bliss forever flown
Have dimmed with tears mine eye
Yet mines a heart unyielding still
e. Heap on my breast the clod;
My soaring spirit scorns thy will
I'll kneel to none but God.
