The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1860-11-16

Senator Hunter, of Virginia, is preparing strong
appeal against any resistance to Lincolns election
until he shall commit the overt act.
Within two days past, Governor Letcher has an
nounced his determination to stand bv the celebrat-
ed platform at all hazards viz: "Non-intervention
by Congress with slavery in State Territory, or
in the District of Columbia"
Late news from Alabama indicates that the con-
test against the Disunionists in that State will be
terrific. Mr.. Senator Clay is in ill health and
Mr. fancey by no means popular account of
his conservative declarations in New York and
Boston.

DEATH OF ALBERTO MARIo.-By a rather circui-
tous route, through means of private letters publish
ed in the Newcastle (England) Chronicle we are
informed of the death ofAlberto Mario, the husband
of Madame Jessie White Mario He was sent by
Garibaldi at the head of party of troops to put
down reactionary movement, but being attacked
by much larger force of Neapolitans Mario and
his men lost the day. Out of the party of one
thousand only forty survived, and Mario is not
among them The deceased was descendent of
noble family of Venice, and early COMPROMISED
himself by his liberal movements He took an
active part in the revolution of lS48, but escaped
the hand of Austrian tyranny, and went to England
After his marriage to Miss White, who had become
quite celebrated from her efforts in behalf of the
Mazzni faction in Italy, and especially BY her short
incarceration at Genoa Signor Mario came to this
country, where his wife gave series of lectures
on Italian affairs, while he himself spoke few times
before the Italians of this CITY, Since his return to
Europe, Mario has contributed some noticeable
articles to Mazzinis journal, Pensiero ed Azione,
and has actively served under Garibadi. He is
Well-known to many in this city, who will regret
his untimely fate.-N. Y. Post
South CAEoLINA CHARACrER-We are surprised
to see, in respectable Northern papers, such licen-
tious paragraph as that on the subject of Charles
ton "quadroons,' now alleged to be in Philadelphia.
Whatever may be our ideas about the politics of
South Carolina, there be but one opinion of
the private character of its people, character as
pure and unsuied that of any community in
ancient or modern times, and far above even the
breath of suspicion, the is above the breath
of the dogs that nightly bay out their little hearts
at it in impOtent spite and envy. The fact that
there has not been single divorce in South Car
olina since the foundation of the Government is
commentary enough upon the domestic virtues of
the South Carolina people. On the contrary, where
there exist great facilities of divorce, in of
the States OF our Union, there has followed, uni
Fersay, great deprivation of character, insub0rdi
nation, and disobedience of law radical demoral-
ization of society, and even physical degeneracy
and effeminacy. The annals of Greece, Rome, and
modern Europe abound with proofs of these asser-
tions, which no student of history and certainly
no observers of human nature will pretend to deny.
