a letter from Chester, S. u dated Dec. 1Ith,
says:
The Vigilance Committee met to -day-a man
by TIE name OF Yerdon was tried for tamper-
ing with slaves and using incendiary IAN
guage the Chairman appointed a committee
OF TO select u jury to try him, and they Sc
lected 10 Citizens, who, after hearing the evil
dence, sentenced him TO receive 50 lashas on

shaved and one side of his face biacked, and at
one O'Clock tomorrow the Marshal of the

thence to Concord, n. o., al d deliver him to

The Charles ton Courier, speaking in reply
to Inquiries addressed it, thinks no eomoro-
mise poss BILE, and that no terms which " the
more dominant sections will adopt, even under
the iInm nence of separation could be honor
ably accepted by the South " II adds:
Admitting however, the ad us tment of terms
acceptable in themselves, the great Ques ion
would present self: I" w hat guaran ees can
be given !" What pledge, or token, or earnest.
or covenant could be- offered more obligatory
on the North and more Saiislac toIy TO the
South than tn Sc which have been violated
again and again by The North Tue great com
peliihg cause OF separation is broken faith,
and the first and essential preliminary To q
consultation, win a view TO adjustment, Is a
mutual appreciation of faith bel ween the op-
posing parties. The North, al least that por-
tion east of the Hudson river, cannot give
guarantees OF god tai h sufficient even to open
