Mr. Palmers Letter.

On the first page of this paper appears Mr.
PALMER'S letter to Col. LrLEs, of Fairfield
1t is political document, not generally very
decided, and part of the history of the times.
In its latter aspect we give itpublicity. Tho
discussion Of the subjects embraced in this
cpistle has been commenced at an early duv,
and consequently taken a wide range. 1t is
not our present purpose to engage in the dis,
eussIon, but we cannot forbcar directing at
Sention to that portion Of the letter, which
speaks of the election of SEWARD, n black re-
publican, to the Presidency. This is Mr..
PALMER's fighting line. Will the S,uth face
his music? a simple fact, althoug gh not sat
Istactory to us, successfully answers it, If
the South has repeatedly refused to resist the
enactment of unconstitutional measures will
she resist one purely constitutional? That
IS the question. Mr.. PALMER is judicious
and sensible in resting to see whether he must
support DouGLAs or one less Objectionable for
the Presidency. There is timely wisdom in
this. But we did not intend indicating our
views in this conncxion. We may do so at
another time.

The environs of the town are very

Gap Railroad ever be completed, the plant

ly piers erected for the railroad standing
up in the river, and the extensive embank-
mcnts for the road completed for sixteen
miles from tho town. Will not yonr Lcp-
islature, at its next session, take efficient
means to complete it? And since the
stock of the Charleston and Memphis Rail
road has risen to par, why cannot your ci-
ty sell their stock in the road and vest it
in the Rabun Gap Railroad? The $780,
900 they now own in the Charleston and
Memphis Railroad will thus be instrument
tai In carrying out two great railroad en-
terprlses. = Chorlcston Mcrcury

years OF my life in the study of these con.

Cardinals neighbors are grasping all around

some one who is opposed to this road. i
regret that their gallant leader, Mullins, is
not here. regret that the earnest Scno.
tor from Fairfield is not here, that We
might have spoken face to face. 1t is
worse than folly to talk to the people of
this audience about the blessings of Rail
roads. Every man feels and appreciates,
and We are more apt to speak of what has

that the number baptized in 1853 was 0S,-
o08-nearly one hundred thousand baptisms,
and a'iittlc less than million of members
These are figures for which entire accuracy
cannot be claimed, but they may be acccp-
ted as the closest practicable approximation
to accuracy, aud as more likely to be too
low than too high. The largest number
ct i}aptists reported from any one State is
Nirglnia-1l5, ,l46. The largest number
baptized i'll any one State is Now York
