Separate Stale Action in South Carolina.
Under this head, the Augusta Constituencies
gives the following brief statement OF the relative
strength of parties in the South Carolina Conven-
ton, on the question of secession:
A writer in the Charleston Courier, signing himself
Gone of the Minority thus Classics the members
elect to the State Convention:
Whole number of members. .lbI
Opposed to separate State action. -....-....o
Leaving for secession. ....................S 9
Being majority of ii only.
The number opposed to separate State action is given
by districts. Among these are 81 from Charleston.
The Charleston papers have heretofore ignored
the fact that the delegates from that city against
separate State action. 1t serves to explain many
limitations, we have noticed in the belgerent COM
munications published by the Mercury, that Char
lesion is not altogether reliable in the secession
movement. 1t discloses Judge Buffers meaning
when he limited, at Edge6eld, that, if the State
should determine to secede alone, the commercial
interests might inerpose serious obstacles. Yet it
causes us some surprise, that when Charleston has
declared against secession, the Courier, which is
peculiarly the commercial paper OF the city, and
which at first actually approved the Compromise
should be perfectly silent the great topic of dis
cussion.
The Augusta Constitutionalist, which is a
prominent organ of the "Southern Rights" party
of Georgia, adds to the exhibit of secession and
anti-secession men in the South Carolina CONVEX
ton. the following rather significant remark:
The time for the assembling of the Convention is vet
ong time off, and many may happen in the mean
ime to modify the views othe members 1t therefore,
difficult TO predict what the Convention will
take

We believe there never was pubic boJy in Virpin-
ia, which by its protraced session and ntermnabe de-
BATE more merited and more certainly received the
condemnation OF the people, than the present Conven
ton. All the efforts OF those members OF the BODY who
are in avo of stopping the discussion now going on
have tailed sometimes indeed, by a small majority
but they have failed. The waste OF time and mo.
ney, is shameful The West gain nothing by pro-
crastinating the matter. If constitution is TO be
made, lei it be made If is not approved of by
the people, it will be rejected .-Aier Gaz

The Un,on on the Secessioaists.

The new editor of the Union proves, in almost
every number of his paper, that he has no af1ilia
ton whatever with the Calhoun wing of the Dem
ocratc party. Witness the following article
from the Union of Wednesday last:

vention OF the Stae-rights Associations in South Ca
rolma is to assemble in Charleston on Monday next
and its deliberations must be looked with much inter
indication of what the State will do in refer.
ence the late measure passed by Congress adjusting
the slavery question. We trus. that that noble State
will recolect how much she gained in 1882 when she
refused to insist the measures of notification as
legitimate remedy for the high tariff, which was then
obnoxious not only to her Citizens but to those general
ly OF the Southern portion OF the Union. At that time
ment the part Of Congress Of the high protective du-
ties OF the tariff 1t seems TO that the passage of
the Compromise aided by the sound sentiment which
silencing the spirit OF anaticsm in portion Of the
Northern States IS an assurance which the State OF
South Carolina ought to accept in the same spirit OF pa
triosn and brotherly love- and attempt separa.
ton from her sister States, which, if successful
could bring to her no benefits, but which would put n
jeopardy all the blessings derived from the Union.
The democratic party, When 1t stood arrayed against
the doctrine Of notification, never INDUCED senti-
ment hostile TO the honor and glory of S. Carolina and
never relaxed an exertion to remove the inst cases
of her complaint At the present moment this party is
much stronger than it then was; and the leaders of the
opposite party have in the of the tariff thrown
the weight OF their influence in support ofthe only prac-
cable in the power of Congress to secure TO
the southern citizen his right of property Under such
circumstances scarcely believe it possible thai

store of c. A. Lincoln, Southbrdge Street ; and
stealing therefrom several articles of merchan-

vious TO the theft; that after its committal they
had conformity purchased three beastly obscene
books &C., in bookstore in this city, and they

- The last Westminster Review says, in
splendid article entitled ''Reasun and Faith, -
Sin England one half of the people can neither
read nor write; and in many of our agricultural
districts, studded with churches, the peasantIy
are as savage, superstitious, and illiterate, as
those of the campagna, or the Basque provinces
ofSpain" What humiliating confession! But
this lamentable fact accounts for the lingering, in
this nineteenth century, of old abuses, such as
those connected with and inseperable from, priest
craft and kingcraft. 1t is this ignorance and saw
agism that, at the call ofthe money power as the
Rothschilds, and the monarcha powers, furnish
the material of that standing army that keeps
down the spirit of freedom. Shame that men
wearing the livery ofthe court of heaven can see
such ignorance and barbarism, and not join heart
and hand in every effort TO remove it. Is it won
derful that there is so much of what is termed in
fidelity in the world? ''When men," says this
home writer, "hear bishops with EGO 900 year,
plously preaching modification and contentment
to the lean artiGcefs of Spitalelds, whilst they,
themselves Capped luxury and surrounded by
pomp) are defending the revenues of their secs,
