VOL. XVI.--NO. 80

They have degenerated into mere spunky
resolves. The States have resolved and re-
solved to do something heroic and consistent
with their ancient honor, and have at the
very first approach of danger, sunk down
into state of abject and unquestioning SUBJ
mission to the tyrannical powers that be-,
What political somersetts have we not wit
messed, within the last two years, in Gcor-
gia and Virginia! What miserable backings
out from IN honorable position! What
split of subservience to their Federal OPP
pressors! What a trucking to political
turn-coats in their own midst!
Even South Carolina begins to be perva-
ded by something of the same spirit. Sub
missionists among us are becoming almost
as plentiful as black berries in May.
Party presses have sprung up, which as
sail, with rancor and viru!ence, our long cher
ished principles, and would, if possible, drag
the State down from its high position, and
render it as contemplate, as it would be, if
they succeed, cowardly. Under the guise of
cooperating with other States, who have,
after all their fair resolves, solemnly declared
they would not cooperate with South Caro-
lima, they would fain persuade our State to
lie on her oars, and hug her chains, as other
States have done, and wait till Divine Provi-
dence, or the Federal Government, which ex-
erciscs no just providence, destroys all the
Southern States together.
If this spirit issnot met and mastered at
the beginning, vain will be the hopes of free
mon in all time to come. State rights and
State sovereignty will be heneeforth classed
among the dreams of the past. The institu-
tions of the South will be ovcrthrown.-The
Government of the United States will be ac-
knowlcdgcd to be, what it has for some time
really been, consolidated government with
out limitation of powers; and South Caro-
lima, who has hitherto kept her honor bright,
and her fame untarnished, will be set down
as an insolent, Dragging commonwealth, who
had neither the spirit, nor the strength to-
execute her own high-souuding resolves.

separate secessioninz 1884,

lss
some of those who now denounce the separate
secession of South Carolina as absurd, sui
cidal and ruinous, to consider attentively the
last section of the Ordinance Qualification
in 1882. 1t is as follows:
"And we the people of South Carolina
TO the end that it may be fully understood
by the Government of the United States and
the people Of the co-States that we are de-
tcrmincd to maintain this our Ordinance and
Declaration NJ every hazard. Do further
declare that we will not submit to the ap-
plcaton of force on the part of the Federal
Government to reduce this State to obedi-
cree: but that we will consider the passage
BY Congress of any act authorizing the en-
ploymcnt of military or naval force against
the State Of South Carolina, her constituted
authorities or citizens, or any act abolishing
or closing the ports Of this State or any Of
them, or otherwise obstructing the free in
grcss and egress of vessels to and from the
said ports, or any other act on the part of
the General Government TO coerce the State,
shut up her ports, destroy or harrass her
commerce, or to enforce the acts herewith
declared to be null and void, otherwise than
through the civil tribunals Of the country, as
inconsistent with the longer continuance Of
South Carolina in the Union; and that the
people of this State will thenceforth hold
/ themselves absolvcd from all further obliga-
ton to maintain their political conncxion
with the people of the other States, and will
forthwith proceed to organize separate
Government, and to do all other acts and
things which sovereign and independent
States may Of right do" (See stat. 33l.)
Here we have conditional ordinance of
separate secession, to go into effect upon tho
commission by the Federal Government Of
any one of several enumerated acts. But
even if is to be regarded only as declara-
ton of an intention to secede upon certain
contingencies, that declaration carries with
it all the moral force which the convention
which made it could give. Among the sig
ncrs of the Ordinance we find the names
of II. w. Barnwcll,, A. Burt, and Job john
ston. TURKEY GREEN.
