II is high time that the people Of this country
were impressively warned against the perils to
which evil cOunsels and headstrOng wills are sure
10 expose them. Let no citizen thOughtlessy run
his neck into halter, since there can be no Ger.
tainty that it will be safely got out again. Men
are Wanting their Willingness ~ fight for /" the
rights of the South when there are no such rights
that, under our Constitution and laws, cannot be
secured by peaceful means. There is to he,
there can be, no war between the South and the
North; there is very likely to be bloody strug
gle between the Union aud those who have re-
solved TO subvert it. Let the nature Of Treason
be clearly understood and every man so warned
that he cannot plead ignorance in case he exposes
himself to its penalties.
1t ia not Treason-tbough the contrary seems TO
be- supposed-to desire and seek TO compass the
overthrow of our Government. In most other
countries, it would be; here it is not. An
American citizen has legal right to consider
the Onion nuisance, and Republicanism a deu-
sion, and earnestly seek the overthrow of both
Such man has no right to bold Office here; but
he NAV earn an honest livelihood, live unInolested,
and be at peace with his neighbOrs. A citizen
may deprecate the Union, curse II, plot against
it, yet commit no legal ofense, and live under
the full protection Of the laws.
Nor is il treason for q State to hate the Union
and seek its disruption. A State whole section,
may come to regard the Union as blight ON its
prosperity, an obstacle to its progress, and be
fully justified in seeking ts dissolution. And, in
spite of adverse csmor, We insist that, if ever
third or even fourth of these States shall have
deliberately concluded that tho Union is injurious
to them, and that their vital interests require
their separation from it, they will have perfect
right 10 seek such separation; and, should they
do 40 with reasonable patience and due regard
for the rights and interests Of those they leave
behind We shall feel bound TO urge and Insist
that their wishes be- gratifed, their demand con-
eeded.
But such separation is matter OF greht
difficulty, and must be work of time. IL If
not TO be effected by merely passing an ordl'
nance The Union is, in the very lowest view,
a compact; and 8 compact implies at least t"o
parties. II one cannot make neither can one

THE EVENT OF THE DAY.

Tie country was yesterday electrified by the
report that Major Anderson, the commanding
officer at Fort Moultrie, had abandoned flat
fortress spiked its guns, destroyed its buildings
and leaving its defensive works mined and
ready TO be blown into ruin at an instants
warning had removed with the little force under
his command to Fort Sumter, q much stronger,
more convenient, and more commanding position
in the vicinity. Ii does not yet appear whether
this prompt and effective movement was impelled
by the expectation Of on immediate assault, or
was simply intended to put to rest the noisy
threats and preparations made for an attack
hereafter.
Though it is pretty certain that Major Ander
son himself took the responsibility of ordering
this important movement to take place on
Wednesday night, We are assured that he acted
under the direction of Gen. Scott, and with the
formal approval of President Buchanan. Major
Anderson feels confident of his ability to hold
Fort Sumter against any onslaught not covered
by strong Naval force, while its reduction by
regular siege must be work of time-probably
of months-by any armament at the command
OF the Revolutionary leaders. The Country will
breathe freer in the assurance that the Stars aud
Stripes are not to be disgraced by surrender
which would be shameful TO the Union, however
honorable TO the captiyes. If Fort Sumter shall
ever see the American flag trailing while the
Palmetto banner waves in triumph over it, it
| viii not be until after fair time will have been
afforded for it's reinforcement, which is all we
asa Let the Government simply call for Solun-
teers whenever needed to relieve that Fort; aud
if they do not come forward in abundance we
shal insist that the Fort be quietly given up
with whatever else South Carolina chooses to

unmake it. A Government is not to DO dissolved
in pet nor pout. All great political changes,
If peaceful, are to be effected with gravity,
deliberaticn, decorum. But LET not the South
rush into civil war under the impression that
the sword alone can cut the cord that binds her
to the North; for it is not so. Let her make
straightforward appeal to the manly self-resPect
OF the North, saying in substance, {" am tired
" of you--let me 60 !"--and We feel very certain
that her request will be complied with. To
plunge the country into civil war is much more
likely to consolidate the Union than to de
stroy it,

souTu CAROLINA IN 1850.

The course Of South Carolina in 1879 received
some calculation at our hands yesterday and we
now proceed to notice her conduct in 1850. Early
in the year, Sir Henry Clinton and Vice'Admiral
Arbuthnot appeared before Charleston, but II w's
not until April that they commenced operations
ON the land within half nile OF the American
works. The town contained some two thousand
regulars, and more than twice that number Of
militia and armed citizens, under tho command
of Gen. Lincoln
On the 10th April 1880, the British command
era summoned Lincoln to surrender the town,
which summons received at once tue following

rant us in saying that it will go into the gen

in power they transferred between seven and

second year, and they repeated the perform
ance last year, and there is no doubt they will
do it again the coming year.
It is a cheat and fraud upon the people
