South Carolina A gain.

The yeasy patriots of South Carolina have had an
other grand explogaton. We suppose the Falstafs,
taconbrdges, BObadis and Lucius 0. Triggers o(our
American LilIiput could not keep till the re-organiza-
ton of the Southern Rights Convention, and the
nversary of the storming of Fort Moultrie seized
upon as an occasion upon which quattlebumming might
be fifty and freely INDUCED in, to the ease Of those
stomachy orators internal parts, though the serious
detrment Of the atmosphere.
The usual incoherent fon-aronade about South Car
onas wrongs, and the usual buster about secession
and the assertion of her rights were profusey and ve-
hementy expended; and we have doubt that some of
the re.eaters with the banner of the lone star and
Palmetto waving over them thought they could do some
in the fighting line.
The Honorable Mr.. Rhett who Dragged about his
weight and personal beauty, and who thought he could
hang PRETTY on gibbe anybody, made the fol-
lowing remarks, which we hope wont seriously brighten
anybody, and which also hope will not cause Sece
tary Webster indite proclamation, nor President
Fillmore to order out the troops.

The smaller guns let off such pops the following
in the form of toasts:
Fort MouArie-Surrendered for our defence; our de-
fence requires that it should be surrendered back again.
Let the State order, and it shall be done.
The State of South Carolina-The time has now ar
rived when it becomes her throw off the shackes Of
an oppressive and tyrannical government.

Pretty tall talking this, for Lliput! Z 1t reminds us
of "a beigerent Ishman, whose heat oftemper Of
ten hurried him into grave, verbal indscretions,
which, again and again, threatened to result in his or
somebody's annihilation. There was always one re.
deeming gimmer of common left in Paddy skull,
however, which the when collision SEEM
ed inevitable. "Houh IN fghi'' were the last
words Of this Hibernian Marmion when passion over
powered him; and as the bystanders always took him
at his word and bound him with a rope Of straw moth
ing ever resulted from his buster but sound.
So viii it be, Of course, with South Carolina; we
shall be called upon hold her lest she fgt and then
there will be no more about it, till the next nervous fit
comes on.
We wonder If these men really can for moment med
ate the impossible absurdty of secession, which they
mouth much aboutl We wonder il they ever do
speculate upon the consequences of this ssue spposng
il to be possible South Carolina fairly seeded, would
just be boats Of incompetent but conceited
rners cut adrft insthe midst Of the ocean, from the
stately ship "Union," where, in her isolation, she
would soon be constrained respect the laws Of
mon decency, and Of nations.
We have heard Of wife who used to Brighten her
husband into submission when any dispute arose be-
tween them by threatening commit suicide by drown
ing; and the whole strength Of the good naured hus-
band again and again required to constran his
struggling sposa to live. He determined at last, how
ever, TO let her have her way in this she had
in every thing else, and SO, when she rushed towards
the pond, instead Of sezing her he used to do he
stepped aside and allowed her free passage to make
the fatal plunge Cries ofhelp soon issued from the
dismal waters, and proesations Of obedience accompa
nisd them; whereupon the good drew his subdued
