The delegates to the Convention.

The voters of this District arc TO elect five Dele
gates to State Convention, which assemblies on
the 18th proximo The election takes place on
next Thursday, one week hence Several gentle
men have been put in nomination by their respec-
tive friends, some of whom have declined. While
it would have been better that only one ticket be
run, composed of men in whom the entire District
might safely confdc their interests, the people, in
the absence of any authorized and general express
sion of their views, will have choose from among
the number yet in the field. In doing so, we
would respectfully but earnestly urge upon our
felow-ctizens the great Importance of the exercise
of cool judgment and calm consideration. The ex-
listing state of affairs admits of no qualification o.
personal ambition. Former party lines are oblit-
Grated. Every man must agree TO sustain the ac-
ton of South Carolina for her connection with the
Federal Government will be dissolved by the ap-
preaching Convention. This is as truly certain to
take place as any event in the future possibly can
be. Her immediate action, too, meets the almost
unanimous approval of her sons. Add to this, that
there is every reason to believe that other Southern
States will adopt the same course, and these facts
prove conclusively that there cannot be rghtfully
introduced into the canvass any question of sepa-
rate secession or corporation.
In view of this state of things, we would bcseech
the voters of Anderson TO act with unanimity aud
concord Select men as delegates such as you
would cntruat your dcarcsts interests wi:h Let
past party affiliations be forgotten seek to intro
ducc no scheme which would mar the harmonious
feeling exhibited all the State sci aside per-
ssnal prejudices if any exists, and rise above pet
ty contentious or private chickering's; in a word,
vote for men of stern integrity sound Judgment
enlarged experience and known abilities. Such
men arc before the people, and We would earnestly
impress upon all the necessity of voting under
standingly. The occasion rises far above any, in
magnitude and Importance, that the people of this
State have ever acted upon Be equal to the occa-
sion, then, and suffer no to oustrip you in pa
trotslr and devotion to your State and her best
interests.

The Pendleton Meeting.

A correspondent elsewhere gives n spirited and
interesting account Of the meeting at Pcndlcton on
Friday last. His attentive favor is duly apprccia-
ted, as we could obtain no place inside the build
ing to hear the speeches, and therefore could
make no report. The Committee of Arrange
ments seemed altogether Indifferent in regard to
having the proceedings reported, and after more
than one Intellectual attempt to procure scat or
comfortable stand in hearing distance, rclurn-
ed to the hotel and awaited the departure Of the
Anderson train.
In addition to what OUT friend states. we learn
that another meeting was held at Pcndlcton on
Monday last, at which speeches were made by
Messrs. ORR, REED, WILKES, and perhaps others.
Tho citizens of Pcndlcon and vicinity not
behind those of any other community in appreci-
ating their wrongs and preparation for ample re-
dress. They have ever been alive to resistance,
and when the day of trial comes if we are TO see
that day, Pcndlcton will send her full quota Of
brave spirits to the defence of their State and
ton. We know the people there, and speak
from that knowlcdgo-they will never submit.

other Southern States do not seccdc, and we are
left alone. We must then consider whether We
prefer utter destruction in the Union or the chan
ces without If coercion was attempted, thousands
from all over the South would instantly march to

we should be mistaken, and his opinions at fauit'

would prefer to die worthy of the blood he bears
than to fall at the footstool of relentless tyranny
It was his absolute conviction, that the agitation OF
this slavery issue four years longer will inevitably
destroy us, and the only question for us to deter
mine, is, whether we shall be destroyed without
resistance or make a noble effort to be free and
thus maintain our liberties and independence.
Upon the conclusion of Mr.. CnEssNUTs speech
which we have briefly sketched in the foregoing,
deafcning thunders of applause shook the building
His hearers cordially and fully endorsed the senti
mcnts enuncated, and gave frequent proof of theil
approval during the delivery of his closing remarks
upon the future of South Carolina.
In return for beautiful boquct thrown from the
ladies' seats, Mr. CHEsNuT paid handsome COM
plment to the women of Carolina, avowing his be-
lief that in tile day of trial they will be as true
courageous and patriotic as our revolutionary faith
ers found them in '1G.

Homicide.

We learn that on Friday night last n man named
THOMAS HARRISON shot, at Pcndlcton, by
FRANcIsco T1scnEssERo, better known in this sec
ton by the cognomen of ''Sancho." The ball en-
tered the head of deceased behind the right ear,
proving fatal almost instantly Various reports ere
in circulation regarding this affair, but, as the
case will undergo judicial investigation, we think
it prudent to give none of them The accused de-
livercd himself up to the proper authorities, and
was rcmandcd TO the Sheriff of this District the
same night on which this unfortunate occurrence
took place.

M1ss1ssIpp1-An immense meeting of
Mississippians was held last week at Jack
son in that State. Speeches were made
by Gov. Pcttus, Hon. A. G. Brown, Judge
Gholson, Maj. Barksdale, and Others
Resolutions were adopted expressing a
settled determination never to submit to
Abolition rule. The last resolution is as
follows:
Resozved, That we sympathize fully with
the people of South Carolina, feeling that
their cause is our cause, and that whatev'
CT may be the final determination of the
people of this State respecting their rela-
tions to the existing Union, we cannot
but regard blow struck at South Caro-
lima, or any other Southern State, as a
blow struck at us, and that it is our duty
to oppose and resist any attempt, from
any quarter, to molest her or them in
their efforts to escape from the sectional
tyranny about to be inaugurated

WASHINGTON, November 23.-l learn
from reliable sources that the Treasury
Department will be forced to suspend
specie payment in the course OF the next
ten days. Arrangements will be made TO
nav off the Government officials in Treas
ury notes. There is the greatest alarm
among the clerks in consequence of this
straitoncd condition of the public Treasu
There is no longer any possible doubt
concerning the Presidents views on seces-
sion. In convcrsing to-day with a gen
tleman of this city, he took strong
grounds against the Southern movement.
Flo declared that he did not believe that
the great West would ever permit the
mouths of the Mississippi River to be held
by a foreign power. "South Carolina:
said he, wishes to enter into conflict
with me, and upon the shedding of the
first drop of blood, to drag the other
States into the movement of dissolution y
He acknowledged that the South had
suffered. great wrongs at the hands Of the
North, but thought that the compact be-
tween them should not be broken until
reasoning and reflection had been exhaust
ed. He would first appeal to the North
for justice, and if it should be denled,
then, said the President" l am with
them" Notwithstanding his condemna-
ton OF secession, Mr. Buchanan has not
given the slightestindication of the course
he proposes to adopt when it takes place.
But he has pointedly authorized the deni-
al of the statement that he favors seccs-
sion.
The Administration still holds in abey-
ancc, the resignation of the Federal
officials in South Carolina. To-day, the
resignation Of United States Marshall
Hamilton, of Charleston, was received
and placed upon file.
The President to-day despatched spe-
cial messenger with full Instructions for
Gen. Harney to proceed with all possible
haste against Montgomery, and to deal
with him in summary way.
Information has been received here
that Montgomery, and his desperate band
of Abolitionists, are preparing to proceed
through the Indian country to make a
raid upon the unprotected frontiers of
Texas. Montgomery has sworn that he
will carry on his bloody war of extermin-
arion until he frees every slave in the
Southwestern part Of Missouri.

tried Caro!inan, and his patriotic sentiments
heartily chccred For two hours he discussed tho
questions at issue between the North and the South in
their CONSTITUTIONAL historic legal aud social bearings
and having shown the crormity of tho wrongs heaped
upon us, asserted that further submission would be
cowardly and ruinous and showed how independent
we could be in Southern Confcderacy.
When Gen. Wilkes finished speaking, Capt. Thornas
Martin offered the following resolutions which were
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the election of Lincoln to tho Presi-
dency of these United States upon sectional principles
avowedly hostile to the savehoding States, is viola

mands of South Carolina and the South prompt with
drawal from the Union.

Hon. w. ". BoYce.

This able and distinguished Representative OF
this State in the Federal Congress, arrived in our
village on Wednesday afternoon of last week. Up
on the fact becoming known, committee of citi-
zens waited on him and requested him to favor
their fellowtownsmen with an expression of his
views upon the absorbing issues of the day. The
invitation was kindly accepted, and the Court
House that evening was again filled with anxious
listeners and ardent resistance men and women.
Mr.. BoYcE was introduced to the audience by Dr..
A. EvINs, Chairman of the meeting, in a few ap-
propriate remarks.
The able champion of Free Trade then proceeded
TO deliver q most earnest and effective speech Of
one hour, which was listened to with strict atlcn-
ton and elected frequent plaudts from the inte-
gent audience. The press upon our columns will
not admit of full report He was for resistance
at all hazards believed that We would have several
of the Southern States to secedc with us and that
others would follow; saw no hope in delay; thought
the quicker this State acts the better. She had gone
too far to recede with honor. Caesar paused be-
fore but not after he crossed the Rubicon and then
pressed on until the Roman Empire 10y at his feet.
A gallant people will not submit. The State is
resolved to go on, and though there may be IAN
ger in the movement, there is certain death and
su1Jugation IN SUBMISSION He, however, believed
there would be no war; but financial pressure
would ensue
This effort of Mr. BoTcE was truly eloquent and
full of research and ability. His closing alluyons
of classical character were touching, patriotic
and impressive, and held spell-bound the admrinr
audience. We have seldom heard this peroration
surpassed, nor witnessed deeper impression upon
an auditory.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-The President
is now considering the exrcdiency Of re-
commanding Congress to call a convention
of all the States, as the only means of pre-
serving the Union.
at meeting held yesterday, in Essex
county, Va, resolutions were passed. re-
questing South Carolina to delay for the
present. Perhaps they want to send a
Commissioner to consult with her upon
the propriety of waiting the cooperation
of Virginia.
There have been no designations in the
Cabinet as yet. None ofthe members are
expected to resign before March, unless at
their States request.
The South Carolina Delegation is now
expected to resume their seats in the
House. in view of the important measures
that they may come up for consideration:
The question of the "right of secession"
and the propriety of passing a " Force
Bill" may be chief topics of discussion.

TROUBLES IN KANSAS Washington
Nov. 21-The Government has official
information from Kansas, that the noto-
rious Montgomery, and others, have COM
menced operations in that Territory,
by hanging and and killing pro-slavcry
men, and threatening to compel an ad-
journment Of the Government land sales,
advertised to take place in December
next. Previous to the reception Of this
information, letters have been received
here that Montgomery's force amounted
to five hundred men, well supplied with
arms and ammunition, and other material
aid; and that from time to time warliEc
supplies have been received by him from
the North.
Other writers from that Territory also
say that the demand to adjourn the land
sales had been resorte6 to as mere pre-
text for raising an armed force, and that
the real object of the lawless organizations
is raid first upon the frontiers Of Missou-
ri, and then on Arkansas and Western
Texas, in order to avenge the punishment
of the Abolition emissaries in those bor-
derStates.
It appears that Governor Medary, who
is now in this city is we'll posted in re-
gard to Montgomery plans and designs.
Orders will be forthwith dispatched to
Kansas for moving the Federal troops to
such points as may be most necessary for
the protection of the people and the land
offices, as we'll as public property.
Fort Scott has been named as one Of
the points likely to be invaded.
