The Southern Guardian and ourself.


The Columbia Guardian devotes column to
the Adrertiser. 1t is brought TO our attention on
the evo Of going to press,-and We must necessa-
rily be curt.
We readily accsde to the Guardian the proposi-
ton it lays down. viz: That the Atirer,ser is not
tho pulse of the people Of South Carolina. Our
paper has never presumed to occupy any such ar
rogant position, and tho Guardian is troubling it.
self very unnecessarily to declare that such is not
tho fact.
The Guardian need give itself no concern as to
the Cincinnati Enquirsrs statement of our rels-
tive position towards two distinguished statesmen
of South Carolina. Tho Advertiser trusts it is no
vanity to say, that now, always, it uttcrs its
| own sentiments, in its own language, and accor-
ding to its own promptings,--aud that no one,
therefore, is responsible for its course except its
own humble conductors.
We allow the Guardian the same merit Of indie
| pendence that we claim for ourself; yet We also
assert that like all other mere human institutions,
it is liable to err, especially when it enunciatos
| such Wholesale assumptions as that Ssnetor HAM
2oND's Beech Island Speech "msets the fullest
condemnation Of every Southern Rights man in
South Carolina" al tie uotera in South Carolina
are Southern Rights men aud two-thirts of these
voters will be found, when occasion shall cfer,
endorsing tho scntimonts Of their distinguished
Senator as SGT forth in his Beech Island and Barn.
woll speeches.
Tho GuurGiam's fuc allusion to the "re-echoipg
of the busle blast, is species of fancy declama-
ton long since worn out. So, when it comes to
assert that we are "counsclli,g submission &c.
4 c." the song is equally old aud hackneyed. Did
it never occur to bold contemporary that it is
he md his alarmed associates who are backing
down in the present instance, crying, "comc, let
us leave this establishment before we and ours are
all consumed by these fierce Republicaus?' ?'-whilc
others Of us prefer to stand 6rln and conroll tho
enemy in the Union, or else break up tho compact,
like rational men, on sufficient cause shown to
Justify us in the eyes of the world and before pos
terity?
Another word. Tho resulG Of tho Alabama
Elections is an index to the triamph of tine con-
servative Democracy throughout the South; and
with that triumph, the arguments for disunioh on
no issue will vanish "like clouds before Biscay
gallo"

TIE Fourth OF July IN EURoPE-INTEn
Esr1NG CE1EBRAT1oN-The celebrations Of
the Fourth of July in Europe this year, have
been unusually interesting. In st: Peters

which was well attended by the court gener-
ally. The most interesting commemoratlon,,
however, took place in Bremen. Six Amerl'

all day, with collations always on the table

become necessary for South Carolina to decide
whether she will net with tho South and vote for
DOUGLAS against Black Republican; and our
most respectful word of caution still is, lot her
deliberate well before determining to throw away
her vote las tho Mercury advises) upon "no can

the destiny of the American people. Lot US hope
that it will only bo cast upon just estimate Of
the value of our great Democratic Organization
and upon proper realization of South Carolina's
duties to the South and to the Union. If this be
natioualism, then is the imputation thing to be
coveted rather than abjurod.

A NATIVE.

OPENING OF THE SLAVE TRADE IN TE1As.-
The Henderson Rusk County, Texas,
Southern Beacon, whose editor, John McClar.
ty, is candidate for the Legislature, in speak.
ing on ehis subject, utters the following Ian.
guage:
Amy reflective man must know that, un.
der present circumstances, repeal of the laws
prohibiting the African slave &rade is impossi-
BILE the measure would be defeated by at
least four.6tths majority in the Southern
States, to say nothing of the Northern vote.
This minority assuredly could not expect the
measure engrafted upon the platform to be
adopted at Charleston in 1860. Such q move
ment would destroy every vesSige of hope of
the success of the Democratic ticket which
may be brought forward by that body"
The new doctrine il not popular, it seems,
in Texas.

MY Dear Sir: have received your kind

Judgment and strong inclination unite IN favor

sire to be renomineted.

The Mercury's Correspondent.

A correspondent Of the Charleston Mercury, Of
tor ubored flourish of irony addressed to "South-
ern Democratic leaders," thus attempts tho anti
climax Of his ridicule
In return for this high compliment to their lofty
patriotism, their stern integrity and their whole
souled devotion to tho party, let them not forget
to be grateful, but "render tribute to whom tri-
butte is due" Let them in the ebullition Of their
present joy, and still more in the frution Of their
hoped for triumph, remember that these Aatering
encoIniums in northern pupers upon their worth,
fidelity and usefulness, wrre elected by the re-
marks Of n southern journal. The Edgeicld Adj
ucrtiser is fairly entitled to the thanks of Judge
DOUGLAS, and Of all his sound relinhle democratic
friends ut the South. Surely it too has right to
expect the "Well done, thou good and faithful
servant"
So it is ever in South Carolina AN individual
or press that dares to utter conservative sent-
ments, or to offer considerations of e1pediency
that conflict with the vague disunion aspirations
Of certain restless spirits, must needs encounter
aspersons upon his honesty Of purpose and susp-
cons of co'upicty in political intrigues for sinis-
ter objects.
We have but word or two to say to the anonr
n, ors- -i-.t-~iA-~-nppu=11Vp
strare digito.
Tho Adrertiser knows nothing OF the "encomi-
ums in Northern papers" that have been elected
by its remarks in reference to Judge DOUGLAS.
Those papers have not yet reached our ssnctuni,
and it is neither expected nor desired that they
will. Our purpose in introducing the montion Of
Judge DorGLAs's name iu connection with the
Chxrlc.,vn Convention, was to awaken thought
upon tho subject in our own State, and to prevent
snap judgement on L point, the ultimate decision
of which (as We respectfully urgc) should not be
arrived at hastily and without full understanding
of tue wishes ofour sister States of the South, from
Virginia to Texas With this motive, number
of reasons were suggested why it might DO better
to elect even the Illinois Senator (himself the
owner Of tuo plantation and numerous slaves in
Louisiana than permit the Black Republican par
ty Of the North to get possession OF tho Goyorn-
Mont. These reasons, substantial reasons of ex-
pcdency,-neither the Mercury nor its correspon-
dent has thought fit TO consider, but proceed in
continentally to denouncc our counsel as "deSti.
tue of principle" and to hold us up as an eIpsc-
tunt Of reward iu the pending Presidential can
! ynss, To both VIC say, continue to exercise your
harsh judgement and to cherish your unjust sus-
pcious NJ yc list We regret becoming the cub.
iact Of your censuree but will nevertheless 90 ON to
,huk aud to write us scnse Of duty may suggest.

Reasons for Preierring Douglas to
Black Republican,.

4
l. Because Of his antecedents as follows:
BE was warn advocate Of tho annexation Of
| Texas.
Ho was an oarly and active enemy Of the VII.
mot Proviso.
10 has always waged IN unrelonting war upon
| the Abolitionist5 of his section.
Ho boldly advocated the Fugitive Slave Law in
the face of tho furious dsplcasure of bis Constit
uency.
Ho was one of the chief agents in tho removal
! of the Missouri Restriction.
2. Because, from his past course, thorc is much
cause to expect that, if elected President of tho
United States, he will use tho power of his posi-
ton as much to promote the bost interests of the
| South, as Of the North, or even Of tho North
West
8. Because he is States Rights in his political
| creed.
4. Because he is Democrat whose political
souudncHs Is unqueGtionod except in the matter of
popular sovereignty.
S. Because oven if unsound on this point as is
argued, there is no occasion likely to arisc, during
the President practical illustration Of his So
callod unsound views.
6. And if such an occasion should arise, he
would not be apt to mako of it, but rather, in
Difference to tho Southern wing Of his party, to
ignore and avoid it so far as Presidential inau-
ence and Presidential patronage should be con-
csrnod.
7. Because ho is in all respects moro favorable
to Southern prosperity than the bost Black Repub
lican in tho Union.
8. Because he is himself slaye-holdsr.
We throw out these considerations for what they
are worth. 1t does seem to US that any Southern
man, who will weigh them well, and who will ut
the Same time recall the moro general grounds Of
policy somo of which ehavo suggested in previ-
Gus number, cannot fail to conclude that it will be
far better to support STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS for the
next Presidency than to allow that powerful Office
y sa "a RHAsu # Is SSyHah HhfR tsRs4 As
totally atienmity with tho South on all points.
This is all that NO have urged. Iu doing so We
renounce no principle. If We foroso its assertion
until another day, and content ourselves with the
present good Of overthrowing Black Republican
ism, we both retain our honor unimpsired and
make tho most Of the circumstances which sur
round us. And this We call true devotion to
Southern interests.
