THE AFFAIR OF HONOR BETWEEN EDWARD MA.
GRATH, ESQ, AND WILLIAM R. TABER, JR, ESQ.

The undersigned deem it their duty to lay be-
fore the community, through the press OF the
city, with n view to y just understanding of the
late hostile difficulty between Mr.. Edward Ma
erath and Mr.. William R. Taber, Jr, the follow
ing correspondence and statements:
The annexed communication was handed to
Mr.. Taber on Saturday forenoon, the 9th in
stant, Mr.. James Conner, who bore it, not having
met him the day previous:
36 BRoAD-sTREET, Sept. 26, 1856.
To John Heart, Esq, and w. r. Ta6er, Jr.,
ESQ.,, Editors Charleston Mercury:
GENTLEMEN: You have, after repeated threa-
Jennings and with deliberation, published and
circulated insulting and libellious attacks upon
my brother, Judge Magrath To effect this,
you have put aside the habitual propriety of
Charleston newspaper; and, dsregarding the
taste and sentiment of the community, have
emulated the corruption and RIGHTEOUSNESS of u
venal press elsewhere.
You have done this without proyocation, or
the excuse of excitement, and in the face of re-
lations with Judge Magrath, proving upon both
of you personal estimates of him iii private ex-
actly the reverse of those you have endorsed and
published. Herein is the proof of your deln-
quincy, either in your private intercourse or in
your public conduct. You have, it is true, at.
tempted to interpose the protection and veil of
an anonymous correspondent: this could not
serve you in any event. In your seeming anxi-
city to secure it, you have, by an apologize para.
graph, In your own names as Editors, endorsed
the libel. am thus relieved of all question as
to whom should address myself. You knew,
in attacking one exercising judicial functions,
that, as to him, you would be exempt from the
personal accountability claim at your hands.
You will not doubt my right 10 do so. How
far your supposed security may have sharpencd
the malice and stimulated the audacity of the
attack, will not now surmise, because the in
tent of this communication is TO afford you the
opportunity of proving whether you did or did
not calculate upon such immunity, and to de-
mand the satisfaction recognisedin such cases.
invite you severaly to meeting, and refer
you for the necessary arrangements, to my
friend, james Conner, Esq, who will hand you
this
am, your obedient servant,

GIVE A1pTo KANSAS.


Hush! hear ye not the distant sound
Of martial music blending?
AS loudly OH the southern storm
Its voice for aid tits sending?
Hear ye, amid the martial strains,
Tones of the bold and brave,
Proclaiming there, with patriots cheer,
Their Southern Rights" TO save?
List, asit skins the swelling tide,
Of Cardinals sea,
Still cheering on, thro' strife and storm,
To climes Of Liberty;
And as it floats upon the breeze
Of Georgia's spotless land,
1t asks aloud, its tones all proud,
Her aid, for the Kansas band.
Hark! to the sweeping notes, that tell
Of Glory to be won;
To wrest our right, from Northern might
The honor of our sons:
Come to the standard, now unfurled;
Launch bodily on the sea,
And let its wave bear ye, all brave,
To shores Of Victory.
Fly to the Border Ruffian's" aid,
Fly to the swelling tide;
And fiercely in, mid battles din,
Practice your Southern pride;
Cast off your coats of cloth, an don
Those Of the crimson cast
Let that proclaim your souls just aim,
And struggle to the last.

preston of your doubt in The opinion have
formed, that, in separate contederacy alone will
we find our safety. No separate and indepen-
dent States ever possessed So many concurring
circumstances to unite them apd keep them uni
ted as these Southern States. They are each
identified with an institution peculiar to them
selves. Of all the elements which operate to
continue political society and social order, none
can be found more potential than domestic sla-
very as il exists in these States While it ope-
rate, on the one hand, to deyelope to its highest
perfection civil liberty, it removes from the COM
inunity in which it is found, all possible ten.
dency to RIGHTEOUSNESS and agrarianism. The
superiority which it gives to; the white class
makes them jealous of any arbitrary assumption
of power, while the slaves occupy that position
in labor that supplies the place Of that lawless
population who overturn governments at one
lime for mischief, at anotherst time for bread.
Without antagonism in interest there can be no
partial or unjust legislation. with the world
for market, the only emulation can be in the
value of their productions. Asking the same
political priyileges-needing The same political
otection-their communities resting on the
same basis, their laws the same-their language,
tastes, sympathies, the samefr-homogenous in
everything that pertains TO their political, civil
or social relations, they would almost seem to
have been marked ou. by Providence as people
created for an union amongi themselves, and
with no one else. Possessing the most superi.
or advantages in The cultivation of those staples
which regulate the commerce pf the world, the
preservation of peaceful relations with these
States would be as importantto the commercial
nations of Europe rs preserving quiet within
their own dominions. Betterswoud it be for
England that the Charlists slieuld march unmo-
lested through her land, than that these cotton
growing States should refuseher the supply she
demands for those factories. from which her
thousands of paupcr population are supported
in lfe Naturally thus secured in the continu-
ance of commerce of whichahe carrying trade
has poured out its rich returns into the laps of
the Northern States of this c6nfederacy, OH its
wings would come back TO us9hat wealth which
once was ours, and out of which we have been
cheated. Thus introduced tn the pathway in
which national wealth wouIdH How in to reward
individual cnterprize and labof.we should soon
find ourselves advancing TO the possession of
all that enrclcs and adorns civilized life. The
tribute We pay to government whose aim is
but to opprcss US, would, bysHs expenditure at
home, develope among us those arts which
are bron with us only SO perish, from
