mons Hall last night He delivered an inAammato-
ry disunion harangue Some of the fireeaters ap-
Pauded him warmly. Georgia invites North Caro-

North-Carolina for the present is, Watch and Wait
"lf that be treason, make the most of it" There
are no submissionists in North Carolina; there are

There are some curious condolences in South
Carolina history, between past and present
which deserve remembrance. South Carolina
was the first Of the colonies 20 declare an IN
dependent State Constitution in The days Of
the revolution. South Carolina was the first
State to seesde from the late Confederaey and
declare an Independent Constitution. South
I Carolina was the first in the revolution Of I776
| to beat the enemy. This was done in Charles
ton harbor. South Carolina was the first OF
the seeding States in 1861 to obtain a triumph
over the abolition Invader ard usurper, and
sgain in Charleston haTborl All the fights in
the revolution 10 1176-Lexingtou and Bunker
HiIl-were American defeats. That Of Fort
Moultrie was a victory Fort Moultrie in
IT'S set fire to the British vessels. The same
fortress bad a large part in firing Fort Sum
ter. South Carolina, at the close Of the reVo-
luton, bad been so liberal that she was the
largest creditor Sta'e in the Confederacy at the
end Of The war. At the present moment Der
expenditures far exceed those Of any one State
in the Southern Csnfsderacy, and this without
intending those large annual expenditures for
ordnance and arms which she began in 1882,
and which, perhaps, has found her, in the
present conflict, better prepared for battle than
any Of Der sister States.
There is one point Of great Importance, in
which The coincid nee utterly fails. In I776,
her people, half OF whom were born in Great
Britain and had only recently come to this
country, we're Learly equally divided. Now,
she stands cree, ready to meet the enemy,
with united eolumnsJ her people all feeling and
prepared as one mani n l770, she could only
bring, all told, about - 900 men into the field;
now she can bring 10000. And such men : a
land fight would show; and, if our brave boys
do net utterly drive the invaders into the SCI,
we SHAH be greatly disappointed in the souls
and sinews that now keep guard over our
Islands. A more wanton Invasion, more bru-
tai without right and refson was never ex-
hibited in history And our boys are defend

10 The Editor Of the Enquirer:
/ have a word for the Republican press and
psrtisans Of Cincinnati and other places
abroad, who now daily fslsify and misrepre-
sent me and matters which concern me here in
Dayton.
Ny position in regard 70 this civil war,
which the Lincoln Administration has inaugu-
rated, was long since taken, is well known,
and uBill he adhered TO % The cad. Let that be
understood. have added Hothisg TO It, sub
trscted nothing from It. said nothing about t.

madness, and will demand 70 know why thirty
millions Of people are butclsring each other
In civil war, and will arrest it speedily. But,
meantime, should ny own State be invaded, OF
threatened with invasion, as soon it may be,

knowledging my first allegiance to be to her,
I will aid in defending her TO the last extremi-
", asking no questions. Whoever shall re-
fuse then, or hesitate, viii be a traitor and a
bastard. And this same rule I apply as well
to the people Of Virginia, Kentucky, OF Mis-
souri,, as to any OF the free States, North or

As to myself, no threats have been made to

violence offered; no mob anywhere; none will
Be; nobody afraid Of any, aud every statement
OF rsmor IN regard 20 me circulated orally, or
pablished IN the Republican press, IS baseiy
idle and false. And now let me adj, for the

EDrToRs AFFEAL Permit me to call your
attention TO the fact, that while New York and
Hartford, Connecticut, are furnishing millions
Of dollars to the enemies Of the South, TO carry
on an unholy war against Us, that those TIVE
cities are now receiving from the Southern
States from sI5,OOO,OO0 to $4,000, 900 anDu-
ally IN Insurance premiums, which amount en-
ablss them to furnish the means to be used
against US. Our own city OF Memphis fun
isbss not less than $4,000, and the State Of
Tennessee, say about S200. 900. Would it not
be well for our legislature to take some action
on the subject, and drive these companies from
the STATE, a policy in which, andsr existing
circumstances, is worthless. Let our legisla-
ture invite all companies chartered by Southern
States, to do business in Tennessee BY reducing
the tax on al such.
