THE NATIONAL ATTITUDE OF SoUTu CAROLINA.
The position assumed by South Carolina in the
Presider tial contest. says the Fhiladelphia
I'cn"Syioamiam, is enc which. if followed by
the whole South. could not fail to result in the
election of breckenridge and Lane. In that
State are to be found no divisions. The sen,i.
ments Of the people and ofthe press seem to be
unanimous mot paper is to be found suppor-
ting DYug!ns or Bell, nor do we believe that
SINCE the ndiourn'nent of the Baltimore Con.

OF Q, o'her than the nominees of the National
democracy. If snch were the cause in every
Southern State. if the vote of a. united South
could be made absolutely certain for Breckin.
ridge, and we do not doubt that it is, what an
immense moral weight would it exercise upon
the Democracy of the North. They would
then see rendered almost certain the election
OF their candidates by the people, or at least
the certainty Of defeating Lincoln and his
Black Republican crew, by throwing the fnal
decls'on OF the contest upon The House of Re.
presentatives where defeat might be considered
q foregone conclusion.
