SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS

The CoHstItHtt0n criticises the Grafton Of
Mr.. George Sumner, delivered in Boston on
the 4th Of July, pronouncing it sectional, fanat-
ical, void of patriotism, and OBSERVATORY of the
occasion on which it traDspired.
The Constellation also has an article on
what IL terms the nests of small literary and
political pretenders about Boston and New
York, who, it says, keep up perpetual chat
tering about matters which they can neither
understand nor appreciate.
The I'atetiigsneer again descants at length
upon the liabilities of nsturalized citizens, IN

Monday last was the day for the convcn-
ing of our State Legislature. We will
have nothing relative to the proceedings of
that body up to the time of our going to
press this week in our next issue We hope
TO furnish the readers of the Ledper with

haps with the Message of His Excellcncy,

question, and the one likely TO consume the

ent Legislature, is the question Of rcmov.
ing the conditions upon which the State
proposed 20 furnish further aid to the Blue

and also the party opposed to it have been
rallying their forces in anticipation of the
contest, each seemingly confident Of a VIC
tory over the other. The finale is doubt
less looked forward to with considerable
interest by the whole State.
The political complexion Of the times,

Virginia. may engage some attention. We
believe that an expression of opinion from
our State Legislature upon these matters
conveying an idea of the position which
South Carolina maintains in the premises
and the part she is likely to enact in the
anticipated struggle for the preservation of
the institutions Of the South, " ould be al
together right and proper.

cord the death of one among the oldest and
most respected citizens Of OUT Village
MIR. Alexander c. Dunlap. Mr. d. had
been leading merchant of this place for
about thirty years, and his character for
fair dealing, precision in his business ar
engagements and answering integrity was
proverbial throughout the District. Some
friend who knew him longer and more in.
timatcly than we, will doubtless pay a fit
ting tribute to his worth, and to such we
leave the melancholy duty. lie was buried
in the Presbyterian Church yard at this
place on Saturday, and az an evidence of
the high esteem with which he was regard
ed here, all business was suspended during
the funeral and burial services.
