We find the following extract from Tie Cbari0ttes-
g7Hc VA Rer1ev, in Tie National fgteit3geRcer:
Other gentlemen may have their tastes, bat we
have cum. The projected nartyrdom Ii entirely I'M
acceptable. South Carolina and Alabama may be
very dear, hut we recOll from entire ruin on their
account. SlayeFy may be strong bond Of union
between tobacco and cotton, but do not feel al
together ready to sink the tobacco for the welfare OF
the cotton. We had rather be an independent
planet want Virginia TO have an orbit Of her own
We DO not want her 10 grilyitate toward New-l0ik
away from Alabama, nor toward Alabama away from
Newi0rk II any gIaviiatlon IL 10 be done let 1t be
done toWG her, or let tue existing attractions main
tain Tie present orbits. We believe the present relA-
ton OF the various States il the best that can be de-
yi4ed. If tie system il disturbed, where each Will lily
to no calculation can foresee. First one and then
another OF these orderly stars viii shoot madly from
its sphere Confusion will be generi-the ruin com
mon. Let US LAY beforehand that we shall not be
dragged. And If the attempt is persisted In, lei
South Carolina and let Alabama so their way, and we
will 70 ours.'

independent position recommended 10 tine state. We
prepared this morning to oer to our readers EVIL
