m. S.o.th CsYolina Southern Rights AS.
..a;.s;oo Convsstion, composed Of dele
80 .nnoiotsd BY the various Southern
R;obt. Ls.o.istions Of the State, met in
this citv and was duly organized by the ap-
noiotment of the following officers, Presi-
dent. Ex.G Governor Richardson; Vice Pres
;dant. Ex-Governor w. C. Seabrook; J. J..
Archer. II. L. Griffin, ]. w. Simpson, R.
II. Goodwin, B. K. Hannigan,W w. H. Gist,
Secretaries; the editors of the Greenville
Mountaineer, Camden Journal, Black Riv-
or Journal, Edgs6eld Advertiser, Chester
Standard, and J. C. Walker.
There are forty Associations represented
aud the Convention is composed of 43f
delegates. The President, Ex- Governor
Richardson, on taking the chair, calmly
but temporarily reviewed the position of
affairs. He considered that Southern In
situations, under existing circumstances,
could not last twenty years. He alluded
forcibly to the vineyard of blood and treas
ures expended by the South in the acquisi-
tion of territory, and her subsequent ex-
clusion from those territories, anc said,
when dangers, threatening our existence,
thus reach our very doors, it was time to
arm against them. 1t was futile to hope
that the constitution based upon such leg.
i~slation, could survive; concession could
yield nothing to its support. The deliber-
stions Of the convention, he said, should be
confined to the when, where and how resis-
lance should be made; though he supposed
it should not be adopted rashiy. He, how
ever, would not dismiss that, as he did not
desire to bias them; he loved the Union; he
did not believe there was an amateur dis
u~nionist among them; he advocated union
among ourselves; if any are forming in our
rear, he said, let us await their approach,if
on our van, let US make up to them. 1t has
been said, that whom God and nature Join
together men could not put a%ssunder; but
the reverse may also be applied, those whom
God and nature has put assunder let no man
Join together. He then argued at length on
the event of sf1uity between the two Sec
tiOns Of the country,and advised earnest and
temperate deliberation.
The Convention then adjourned. The
votes tomorrow will settle the question Of
notification. The President is a strong
Union man. The Convention embraces
many men Of talent.
