SOUTH CAROLINA sEcEssIoN-THE VIEWS THE AD-
MINIsTRATION.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Letters continue to be
received from South Carolina saying that the peo-
pie of that State have no quarrel with the Presi-
dent, but, as however, secession, on the assembling
ofthe convention in December is spoken of as GER
tain to take place, the probability is that the ques
tions growing out of secession will have to be prac
tically dealt with by the present Administration.
From all reliable information received it does not
appear that there are any persons of influence in |
South Carolina opposed to secession.
The opinion obtains in official quarters that
though the South has just of complaint against
the North, no State is justified in secession, nor
revolutionary movements, not at least until every
constitutional and legal measure of redress has
been exhausted. That State has the right to
commit any act which would have the effect of
precipltating such condition OF affairs as would
induce other States to join her in disruption of
the Union.
Purser T. B. Walle has been ordered to Charles
town Navy Yard.
KIDNAPPING OF FREE NEGROES
SAVANNAH, Nov. eat has been rumored here
LOT several days, but discredted, that six free ne.
groes (seamen) were forciby taken on the night
OF the 18th from the bark N. w. Bridge, off Cum
berand Island, coast of Camden county and were
not afterwards heard Of
1t is also rumored that three free negroes (saiI
ors), portion of the crew of the brig Wiugold,
were taken from Ferandini Jail and removed to
parts unknown. The Ferandni Floridion of the
list asserts the truthtulness of the report and at
tributes the cause to retaatory measures but con-
dennis the proceedings. Judge Putnam, in his
charge to the Grand Jury, denounced these acts
Inc editor OF the paper says it is probable that the
Legislature will pass an act preventing Northern
vessels from bringing such crews to Florida ports
EX-GOVERNOR WISE.
NORFOLK, Nov. 23.--Ex- Governor Wise has offered
his services to Governor Gist, of South Carolina
IN case of an emergency, and if not required by
Virginia.
MR.. YANCEY's OPINION.
The Montgomery (Ala.) Nail, of Tuesday pub
fishes letter from Mr.. Yancey, which closes as
follows:
But Alabama will not be alone. Nothing can
long keep the cotton States in this Union One
State moving will, by all natural laws, carry with
IL others, until in process of distant day, there
Will be confederacy of Southern Atlantic and
Gull States, doing justice to others and securing
peace, justice and independence to itself.

WHAT PENNSYLVANIA MUST DO.
We trust that the Governor will without delay
call the Legislature together. Under the severe
provisions OF our banking laws, the banks may be
exposed to the most annoying assaults of those who
wish, either from malice or mercenariness, to ha-
rass and embarrass them Legal protection should
therefore be at once given to them; of course how
ever, so qualified as to carefully guard the future
interests Of the community. Besides, the early as.
sembage OF the Legislature will enable the Cover
nor to lay before them the immediate necessity of
repeal Of all the unconstitutional legislation of
the State against the Fugitive Slave Law. Let

turn to entire allegiance to the Union, the "Const
