important and cheering character, and we

Charleston Mercury.
"MAcoN, Feb. &c.
Great efforts will be made
by the submission press, and leaders in this
and other Southern States, to inculcate the
impression, that if South Carolina should
secede, she will meet with no sympathy from
her sisters. This is i great mistake. Not
withstanding the shameless back out of Geor-
gia last November, more than half her citi-
zens to-day sympathize with South Carolina,
and should she lead off. thousands and tens of
thousands of as good and true men: as ever
fluttcrcd on this side of the Savannah, would
rush to the rescue With the good and true,
in this State. decisive action by S. Carolina
is regarded rs the only thing that can save
the South now All eyes here are turned to
her as the custodian of the rights, the honor,
and the civilization of her Southern Sisters
and trust in God she will give Clay and Fill
more al opportunity of testing the strength
of u Government which is now, according to
their own statements, defcd by n few half
starved negroes in Boston. Yours, truly"

SOUTH CAROLINA TRUE TO HERsELF-ln
despite of all the prophecies to the contrary,
in defiance of vituprrative cpithots, and indi-
rect threats, South Carolina has maintained
the proud position she has assumed, and pro-
ven true to herself, the interests OF the South
and the rights of States. She is, by her
course. in the present gloomy state Of things,
creating for herself name, establishing
character, which will excite the admiration of
every lover of liberty and justice, and mcrls
the thanks Of every true son OF the injured
south. We rejoice to sec her discomfting her
enemies, by giving the lie to their false char
gcs of treason. hot-hcadedness and fanatl--
cism, by her noble, calm and collected beaFF7i beF
ing. Surely no one will now dare charge
her with yascllation; no one have the impu-
dcnce to assert that sho is prompted by
spirit of bragargtsm and show. She Is pru-
IDENTIFY and calmly pursuing that course winch
she believes best calculated to secure ING
rights, interest and prosperity of the south.
The minds of her people arc fixed, ana no
sophistry or juggling, no threats or menaces'
will be able to turn her from her purposes.
The politipal opinions and condition OF ..

maturing for many years, consequently lhey
are permanent, firmly and immutaliy hSeo.
South Carolina is the champion of Southern

azlne: Mentioned above. II is unnecessary
to sayanything in reference to the eimportancc
of sustaining in our midst, an enterprise of

RISING OF THE B'HOYS,

OuE quiet and peaceablc village was, on
Tuesday night, the scene of IN amusing out
break Of youthful fire and fun.
A dioramic exhibition, which had been her
aided by flaming red hand-bils, was opened
at the appointed hour, and a goodly number
of the young men about town, hocked to the
show. They at once saw that they were
most egregiously "suckcd in," and deter
mined to get the worth of their quarters by
Il little sport of their own making. Accor-
dinghy, having permitted the lecturer and ex-
positor Of the "Grand Diorama" to COM
plctc his performance, they ut once commcn-
ccd theirs by u Simultaneous attack upon the
Revolution, its battles and heroes, with sticks,
porkct-knives and fingcr-nails. The cncIlant-
ment of art fell before thier charge, and in
one brief minute, the grand artistic represcn-
tation was torn into i hundred fragments
The proprietor fled in dismay, and, we are
told, was discovered this morning perchcd
upon tell-pin alley, and cndcavoring to
conceal himself behind chimney.
Poor fellow! His feelings must be gloomy;
but this will teach him perhaps to beware
how he praetises such gross frauds in future.
