HEAR BOTH SIDES.

WE pronire in our next issue, the speech de.
ivered by Gov SEABRooK in the late Convention
of Associations. 1t contains many plain and prac-
teal views upon the question Of separate State
action.
A great part of our paper this week. it will be
seen, is occupied by arguments opposed to our own
position " Fair play" is our motto. We recon-
mend it to certain anti-resistance sheets in the
State.
In particular, we suggest to the political head OF
the Southern Baptist, little more genero' i'y'
magnanimity, charity or whatever it should be
termed. Why does not that religious exponent OF
tolerant Protestantism carry its principles into
politics, if 1t must needs go there at all? We say
to the editors that many of their Baptist friends
in this section, condemn the onesided course they
have thought proper to pursue. "A word to the
wise ought to be sufficient.

HINGE BrTLER,S SPEECH.

WE lay before our readers to-day the speech
made by Judge BUTLER in the late Convention
of Southern Rights Associations. 1t is regarded,
we believe, as the most powerful argument which
has yet been made upon that eide of the question.
1t is unnecessary for to bespeak for it careful
perusai. The well.known character Of its author
will ensure this.
II will be seen that he still looks to other diff
culties than war, as being the most formidable
obstacles to the future career of South Carolina,
as an Independent Government.
The concueion of the honorable Senator, is
well worthy the after I'm Of those, who seek. by
private trickery and implied threats, to throw the
fre-brand of discord into our midst.
When the test is made by our Constitutional
Convention (as it inevitably will be } the miserable
faction that may seek Federal protection to shield
them from the fearfully-antcipated dangers of the
contest, will find in Judge BUTLER one of their
most indignant prosecutors.
