ts The Opposition, ,',...What can it Do!

Our neighbor of the Register. after much refec-
ton, and actuated no doubt by sincere desire to
save the Union suggests, as the only course for
vatives should at once join 1.-the Opposition" Let
us see what sort of a proposition this is
The "Opposition" party, socacd, is not only
in a minority in all the sayeholding States, but
those claimed to belong to it in the non-savehold-
ing States-to wit the Fillmore men-constitute
but corporals guard in that portion of the Union.
We will not do our neighbor of the Register the in
the black Republicans constitute any portion of the
"Opposition" on which he relies. Very well, then,
let us see how the matter stands. Why, the party
Of our neighbor, which he has brought forward to
save the country, does not even possess name. 1t
is called the "Opposition" party. Opposition is
negative; there is nothing positive, conservative,
beneficial about it. 1t do nothing for the coun-
try. 1t can do nothing for itself 1t has no regu.
lar organization 1t is the result of the ruins Of
the old Wing and American parties and has failed
to acquire the confidence of many of those who
acted with those two organizations. 1t has no
generally acknowledged principles but is simply
"the Opposition party"
What hope, then, can we have from this "Oppo.
sition party?' None, none. 1t can do something
for the Union, if it will cooperate with the only
national party now in existence; but if it should
refuse to do that, and should even remain neutral in
the approaching contest, it will be an element Of
evil instead of good to the country.
Let our neighbor Of the Register think of these
things. We do not write them as party man, but
as Carolinian and friend of the Constitution
and the Union.

Latest New. from charlestown.


The United States Marshal for Ohio denies having
telegraphed to Gov. Wise that troops were being
raised in that State to rescue old Brown. '
Butt appears to be certain that associations secret
in their character, being formed in some of the
free States, with view to rescue. This is con-
rmed by letters to Gov. Wise, extracts from which
have been published in the Enquirer. Gov. Wise,
in concentrating so many troops at Charlestown,
acted with reference to these movements being de-
termined to prevent any attempt at a rescue by
large military force. He has acted wisely 1t is
better by large array of force to prevent any at
tempt than would be to- have to resist the attempt
to shed blood, and thus still more exasperate the
North and the South.
Gov Wise, while at Charestown, visited the
prisoners, and urged them to prepare for death. He
informed them that the sentence OF the Court would
certainly be carried into effect upon all of them.
The Governor of South Carolina has telegraphed
to Gov. Wise, offering him any amount of military
aid. Gov. W. replied, thanking him for the offer
but assuring that Virginia was able to defend herself
The Governor left Harper's Ferry on Wednesday
morning for Washington City, after receiving dis
patch from the Governor of Pennsylvania, rendering
him the services of ten thousand men, and offering
to station guard along the dividing line between
Pennsylvania and Maryland. Gov. Wise returned
his thanks, with the assurance that Virginia was
able to protect herself
If this be true, it is highly creditable to Pennsyl
vania and her Governor.
Charlestown and Harper's Ferry were quiet
Some alarm guns had been fired but no enemy ap
peared The property of several of the jurors in the
Of old Brown and the other prisoners had been
burned This shows that abolitionists are lurking
about Charlestown.
The Richmond Enquirer of Thursday declares
that Gov. Wise will not pardon John E. Cook
"Those who understand the character of Governor
WISE" says that paper" know that if he believed
Cook deserved pardon, it would be extended to him
though opposed by every paper in the broad limits
of our country; but the pardon of Cook is out o
the question-he the most guilty of all the Charles
town prisoners"
The Enquirer also states that three voluntee
companies in Georgia, and the Independent Grays
of Elizabeth City, n. c., had rendered their service
| to Gov. Wise.
