with South Carolina, elected petty general expres-
sion Of opinion, and this showed coincidence with our
views, far at least they indicated feeling of res
tveneas under the queer treatment accorded to this part
of the State for in truth only demonstrate, we
cannot change The s2tUs political relations of this
section of the State to the balance or to South Caro-
Iina We can, however record emphatcaly our appre-
citation OF things which deserve that such course
should be pursued by our people. A vote such as we
proposed, would be the most emphatic expression that
we could give, and it might do some good.
