minisration is naugurated aud tested, it will fur
nish no cause for their complaints. Secession is
an impractcability, or rather an impossibility.
The Constitution provides no way by which
State may withdraw from the Union-no way for
the dissolution of the Government. 1t creates the
general Observation-Disclosures but little with
the individual rights of tho citizens, except for
protection; it is chiefly felt 10 It's benefits and its
blessings, and not in its exactons. If every fed
eral officer in South Carolina were to resign, and
their Offices remain vacant, and its convention. de-
clare the State out Of the Union, it would all
amount to little except to Inconvenience the cti-
zens Of that State. So long as the State did net
interfere with the collection Of revenue on the
sea board, the people in other portions OF the
Union would not be in the least inconyenienced:
What is the South Carolina army to do when rails
ed whom is it to fight? manifestiy if it commen-
ces war on the U. S. officers engaged 10 collect
ing the revenue it becomes the aggressor. This
would be Revolution, and making war without
cause, for South Carolina makes no complaint
against the present revenue laws. Is she prepar-
ed for thisS To become the aggressor Z The
only use ! can see for her ''mnute men" is, THAI
they will enable the people the more readily to
suppress ary uprisings in their midst which their
representations of the purposes OF the Repub-
licans may have encouraged. She complains that
the fugitive slav1 law is net executed in some of
the States. This, if true the whole country knows
to be sham, 80 far as South Carolina is concern
ed. She is so situated that no slave can escape
from her limits into free states. However much
cause the border slave states may have to complain
of the escape of their negroes into the free states,
it is clear South Carolina can have no such COM
plaint In her resolves she processes to be pre-
pairing to defend herself against encroachments on
her rights. Let her adhere to this policy and not
attempt to dictate to other states what they shall
do, aud no collision will occur, for no encroaoh-
ment will be made" -.-.,.
The speaker expressed the opinion that the dis
union feeling is greatly exaggerated, and that NOT
all the supporters Of Breckinridge ere Disupion-
ists He asserted emphAtIally that should the
Disunionists succeed in overcoming the Union men
of the South, and plunge the country into civil
war, an overwhelming cry that the Union must and
shall be preserved, tOould arise in all parts Of the
land and uar tcould then come home to the traitors.
The speaker concluded by enumerating the ben
efcent measures likely to be accomplished under
Republican government and expressing confidence
that it will give peace and we'll being to the coun-
try.
Hamin will meet Lincoln in Chicago, where
grand conclave of Republican leaders of the

OFFICIAL EXPOSITION OF THE CONDl
TON OF THE HAYTIEN REPUBLIC.

y document entitled Exposition of the Condi
ton of the Republic" was presented to the Senate
on the Goth Of September. From this documen
it appears that the country is in satisfactory
state. The various Oln celebrations proposed by the
government in a tair way to bo accomplished
The army has been reorganzed, and reduced from
thirty thousand to sixteen thousand men. The na
Wy, under the old government consisted only of a
few small vessels, but two steamers have been or
jered By the Senate and ave expected soon; they
are called the December 22l" and the GafTrard' .
These Two steamers, well equipped and manned
will act as sort of shore police, and also make
trips between the principal ports Of the republic
They will be commanded By some Of the young
Haytiaus who were sent to France and educated
in the navy school at Brest.
The financial condition of the republic has beer
greatly ameliorSted by the economical measure
that have been taken, and by the reforms pade II
various departments Of the government. The val
ue Of the national money is rising daily, and tn
emission Of paper money is constantly decreasing
| Engagements contracted by the state are pune
tuelly filed; the army is regularly paid, and tn
government owes it arrears. The cu5tom-house
are conhded to the care OF honest and compelen
men. Commerce, which is at present equal t
the demands OF the country, will increase wit
the increasing development Of the country.
Certain sections which ten years ago were abar
doned, are to-day in state of prosperity, OWN
to the culture of fields which were hitherto nel
lected. The government is occupying itself Wit
the construction OF good roads, so necessary to a
agricultural district, and has in contemplation
system of irrigation aud dyking,
The neglect OF tho public buildings under Sol
Iouque's reign involved the new government
considerable expense for the restoration and n
pairing of the edifCes and there still remains
the republic many public works to be completed
Among the new works decided on Is mod
farm, where youths will be taught the use of til
different agricultural Instruments recently ipyeI
ted, and the latest improvements in the art Of Gu
tivating tropical soil like that of Hayt. Th
premiums awarded for the culture of cotton, an
the presses and mills distributed among grower
have already had good effect. The price of CO.
fee has already increased, and the governmeu
will encourage the culture of sugar-cane, which
though it flourishes we'll in Hayt, has for seVera
years received n attention.
The discovery of extensive coal mines, it Is hop
cd, will bring additional revenue to the govern
ment.
| New fountains have been erected at the capital
and are in course of construction in other cities o
the republic, Postal facilities have been increased
