highly gratifed and delighted to learn that
/ Professor \. J. Quinehc, of the Aberdeen
4 Female College, was recently unanimously
elected on the first ballot by the Trustees of
our State University, at Oxford, to the chair
of Latin and Modern Languages. 1t will be
remembered that this chair was vacated bv
the resignation of Prof. Richardson last win
ter, and before the commencement of another
Collegiate year it lcvolvcd upon the Trustees
to fill the vacancy. In comforting that honor
upon Professor Quinche, they have not only
exceedingly gratifcd his host of friends in
this community, but they have made most
iudicious and wise selection. lie is a high
toned, waun-hcartcd chivalrous and polished
gentleman, and withnl a most profound and
thorough scholar. His field Of labor in this
city was altogether too narrow for gentleman
of his age and thorough scholastic attain
ments. lie aspircd to position where he
could exercise his knowledge of the Ian
guagcs with more benefit to himself and his
fellow beings. lie has succeeded in secur-
ing such position, and in doing so, it must
be source Of much qualification to him and
his many friends, TO know that he achieved
it over numerous applicants of the highest
order of learning, recommended by some of
the first men of the nation. Our intimate
acquaintance with Professor Quinchc, justi-
fes us in predicting that he will prove an cl-
ement of strength to the Faculty, an orna-
ment to our State University, and reflect
honor and credit upon his friends and the
entire State. 1t is true that we part with him
in this community with feelings of the deep
est regret, but we all feel proud to know that
in leaving our immediate presence he takes
a higher, moro commanding and influential
position than he could possibly have secur-
cd in the limited field of knowledge which
is usually prescribed in Female Institutions
of learning.
We commend him and his accomplished
lady, with feelings of pride, to the social and
classical circles Of Oxford, as worthy of their
kindest and warmcst reception.-AJerdeen

TIE Opposition seem very anxiou' to
keep before the people the idea Of divided
Democracy; but they are not SO anxious to
make them acquainted with the fnll merits
of the question. The noble attitude of the
Breckenridge Constitutional Democracy has
too much in it which wins the applause of
true Southern patriots, and the willy opPosi-
ticnists do not discuss the principles involved
in the question of division, for fear their
own partizans might be too strongly attract

tiply of fanatical and growing party, which

party and the National Democracy, sustain ed

think it will be impossible for a candid
mind to discover hostility to the Union or
taint of sectionalsm in the resolutions adopt.
ed by the Convention. The Constitution
and the Union rcpose on the equality of the
States, which lies like broad foundation
underneath our whole political structure. As
construe them, the resolutions simply assert
this. They demand nothing for any State or
section that is not cheerfully conceded to all
the rest. 1t is well to remember that all the
chief disorders which have afflicted our coun.
try have grown out of the violation of State
equality, and that as long as this great prin-
ciple has been respected, we have been bless
ed with harmony and peace. Nor will it be
easy to pursuade the country that resolutions
are sectional which command the support of
the majority of the States, and are approved
by the bone and body of the old Democracy,
and by vast mass of conservative opinion
everywhere, without regard to party.
1t has been necessary, more than once in
our history, to pause and solemnly assert the
true character of this Government A men,
orabIe instance occurred in the struggle which
ended in the civil revolution of 1900. The
Republicans of that day, like the Democracy
of this, were stigmatised as disunionists, but
they nobly conducted the contest under the
Constitution, and saved our political system.
Bv little Constitutional struggle it is in
tended to assert and establish the equality of
the States, as the only basis of union and
peace. When this object so National, so Con
stitutional, so just, shall be accomplished, the
last cloud will disappear from the American
sky, and with common hands and hearts the
States will unite to develop the resources of
the whole country, to bind 1t together with
the bonds of intercourse and brotherhood,
and to impcl it onward in its great career.
The Constitution and the equality of the
States! These are the symbols of everlasting
Union. Let these be the rallying cries of the
people.
trust that this cavass will be conducted
without rancor, and that temperate arguments
will take the place of hot words, and passion
ate accusations.
Above all, venture humbly to hope that
Divine Providence, to whom we owe our or.
igin, our growth, and all our prosperity, will
continue to protect our beloved country
against all danger, foreign and domestic.

/" DisuuiOn 20

TnE Oppositionists say that the question
Of protection in the Territories involves dis
union. We claim that every citizen Of the
United States has a right TO go into the Ter
ritories, which belong to us all in common,
and to take his property with him. We
claim, also, that every citizen is entitled to
full and efficient protection for all property
carried into the Territories. We claim, fur
ther, that whenever the Territorial Legisla-
ture, the creature of Congress, shall fail TO
provide that protection, it is then the duty OF
Congress to enact laws for that purpose
We demand nothing more than we are justly
entitled to under the Constitution; we ask
our rights in the Uuion, and have declared
that we will leave the Union when-thosc
rights cannot be obtained.
II that involves disunion, the demand that
there should hc no taxation without rcprcsen-
taton, which our forefathers preferred to the
British throne in l775, involved disunion.-
And vet, where is the true-hcarted American
who would censure the patriots of the Revo-
tuition, for their conduct in " the times which
tried mems souls" And are we to he intim-
ilated from demanding our rights, by this
silly cry of "disunion p Must we hang
our heads, and decline TO ask for what be-
longs to us, merely because there may be
some trouble in obtaining if ; We are no
disunionists nor do we believe that this
question of protection in the Territories in
wolves disunion. We are sanguine that the
sense of Justice among the people of all the
States is strong enough TO guarantee to us
the rights which we demand. But if We he
mistaken in this, if the dominant majority Of
the States strive to take away from us the
dear bought privileges which have never yet
been surrendered to the keeping of the Fed
cral Government, where is the Southern man
so tame and cowardlv, as would bend his
neck to the yoke, and kiss the rod which
smitcs him "Is life so dear, or peace so
