WHAT News FROM SOUTH CAROLINA ?"-We
are tired of being asked that question, and wish
as some one proposed, the State could be dug
around and foatcd over to St. Domingo The
people-or at least their leaders-have done
nothing but whine over imaginary evils for the
last thirty years. The non enforcement of the
Fugitive Slave Law is their hobby now, and OF
all the slave-holding States they probably suffer
the least from the evil they most complain of
They have borne these evils all through Buchan-
ans administration, and quietly, loo, and now
because Republican President has been chosen
they fly into passion and say they won't live in
the Union any longer 1t would have been much
better TO remain until they had opportunity to
judge of the new Presidents course. 1t certainly
cannot be more trifng than the present ones has
been.

Party Responsibility.

We take the following from the San Fran
cisco Herald, and submit it to the careful con
sideration of those over r-anxious individuals
who growl at the apparent long delay of the
war, and urge the contest against the better
judgment of veterans then, in defeat, endea.
yor to shirk the responsibility and shift it upon
those who have done all in their power to be
prepared Hereafter, hold your peace and let
the ripe warriors of the country plan your
battles:
The Republicans are greatly chagrined, be-
cause OF the universal condemnation which the
Administration receives for the late terrible
disaster near Manassas junction. The Adm
inistration and its organs and advisers are un-
doubtedly to blame for the result, aud the TACT
that they cannot shift the responsibility from
their shoulders covers the whole party with
confusion Who does not remember the con-
tnual howlings of the New York Tribune,
and other Abolition sheets OF the \ orth, week
after week, and month after mouth, about the
dilatorIness OF Gen. Scott and the delay OF the
Government in advancing upon The South
Then knew more than Gen Scott aud all the
military leaders of the world They had an
idea that one Abolition tract read at the head
Of the armies, or one of Greely's old almanacks,
would do more for the success Of the Federal
armies thar all the discipline and all the skill
that could be brought into the field. They had
an idea that the laws of nature and of cause
and effect would be su7epnded 10 behalf Of the
supporters Of the Government, and that it was
not necessary at all to consult reason and CON-
mon sense in an onslaught upon rebels. They
have found out their mistake, and are now
ready we presume, to acknowledge that mill
tary experiece and the art Of war amount to
something in the pendant scales of battle
This same class of non -combatant advisers
and volunteer hurrah erS for battle were loud in
their denunciations of this same great chieitain,
Gen. Scott, during his magnificent campaign
in Mexico. They were impatient of his long
delays-his slow and steady movemenls-hi
long training and discipline of newly arrived
regments-his practising Of the artillery, and
finally of his cautious and well prepared advan-
ces upon the enemy. But they saw, at last,
what they never would have seen, had their
mad will prevailed, the American flag waving
over the battered walls of Vera Cruz, the grand
victory of the field of Cerro Gordo, and the
triumphant march of the American army into
the City Of Mexico. Gen. Scott knew then
what he was about and he knows now. He
has been driven from his better judgement by
the perssure of public sentiment created by men
quite tit to bring u country into trouble, but
not to relieve it afterwards. It seems now that
the determination is to allow the old Chieftan
hereafter to take his own course. The country
may safely offer congratulations on the event

LOYALTY OF CALIFoRNIA.-Senator Latham
IN his late speech in the Senate, referring to
the proud position of California, says:
" As have said, represent on this floor a
State far off on the Pacific, who are in the
calm, peaceful enjoyment of their everyday
pursuits, supporting the Government in secu-
ring obedience to all its behests, aud in the
hope constantly that with as little bloodshed
as possible these misguided people may return
to their allegiance and to their duties to our
country. | know this is dark page spread
out before our vision, and no man can prophesy
what will be the result OF it, considering the
past and the passion of men who have been
aroused to frenzy. But have the proud con
ISOLATION of feeling that, let the result be what
it may, though God may will that star after
star of our political armament shall be rent out,
though it may be that column after column
that now sustains our political edifce shall fall
and crumble away, yet, whenever that day
shall come, you will find one column that is
standing firm and beautiful in all its proper
tions, cloud capped on its summit, and bearing
Inscribed on its face the name of my own be-
loved State, as one remaining that shall prove
true to the end to the Constitution and the
Government of our fathers Repressed ap-
plause.

BRING HIN FoRwARD-The Ohio States
man calls upon the Government to order Gen.
Wool into the field in the following terse and
pointed language:
These are perious times, aud the people are
asking, where are our veteran officers of the
army? Where is the gallant old General
Wool? Why is he not at the head OF some Of
our advancing columns? Why is he consigned
to Troy, New York? There is no enemy
there The army needs him in the field. No
red tape" arrangements will be tolerated at
this time; no old grudges of Simon Cameron
must be revengCd now. If General Wool in
terfered with any OF his or his friends specua-
lious during the Mexican war, it must not be
suffered to interfere with the country having
the benefit of his valuable services now. Any
of these political Generals Banks, Schenck
Cox, or most any other man can loaf about
Troy and attend to Office business but the
people want General John E. Wool in the
field at the head Of one of the columns of the
army. Our brave troops want him and must
have him.

We conversed yesterday morning With gentle

is thus defined he will propose that the Northern
Congress shall recognize the Southern Confed,

whether they will DIN the Northern or Southern
| Government If this proposition faila, Mr. Critten,
den will return horne, ana raise the standard OF
resistance and on such an issue, We learn from

| revolution by at least hundred thousand. me
| neople of the northern portion Of Kentu Ky are
represented to he warmly attached to the southern
cause and the cause Of their delay aa represented
is the unarmedAnd unprotected condition of their
border. But, when Crittcnden'a proposition fails
the people of kentucky will rush to arms with a
| zeal and enthusiasm for which there has never
been parallel. We,are assured that Mr.. Critten-
den's position is that of overwhelming majority
of the Union men of Kentucky. The position OF
