REMEDIES ToR EXI>TING EVILS PRO
POSED BY SOUTH CAROLINA

Hon. Amos Kendall, in his ninth article
On secession. thus states the remedies which
South Carolina proposes for the wrongs Of
which the South complains -
They complain that Northern men intend
to exclude sIaveh oIders from the territories,
which are the common property of all the
States, aud, as remedy for this prospec-
tive grievance, South Carolina prop oses 10
gire up The territories altogether!
They complain that some Of the Northern
States have violated the Constitution By
passing acts 10 impede the execution Of the
fugitive slave laws, and az remedy for
th violation on their part, South Carolina
proposes 10 abolish the Constitution alto
gsihsr.
Their complain that the Constitution and
laws Of the United States are not sufficient
to prevent the abdueslon Of slaves or secure
the rendition Of fugitives, aud South Car
oGina's remedy is to relieve Northern pegro-
steaiars from those restraints ani give up
all claims to the rendition Of fugisivss.
Thev complain Of the ssundergrouni rail.
road BIZ which slaves are transported to
Canada, and, as remedy. South Carolina
proposes 10 save the cost and trouble Of
transportation BY virtually bringing Canada
down to the Ohio river and the borders Of
the sIaveh0,iiog States.
They complain that there is party 10 the
Northern States which Is seeking the over
threw Of southern institutions, and South
Cardinals remedy Is to drive all other north
ern men into saa; party.
They complain Of the sympathy express

STR AVIS.

Notwithstanding the bold air Of the rep
resentatiyes of the Cotton States at Wash
ington, and the confident tone of the officers
of those States and Of the leading newspa.
per organs of Secession, fact every now
and then leaks out which makes it evident
that the Secessionists by no means feel as
sured of their own strength, and of a Ger.
tain hold upon popular sympathy in their
respective States. Not DAY, for example,
is suffered to pass by at Washington, with
out the transmission Of all manner Of exag-
geruted reports to the Secession States, the
object of which is to exasperate those who
have enlisted in the NOV ement, to encourage
them by false stories Of pecuniary distress
and suffering from want among the labor
ing masses of the North, and to render more
potent the reign Of terror by which, for the
time being, all conservative and Union-Iov-
ing sentiments have been suppressed. The
secession organs abound with dispatches Of
this character, which are made the basis Of
the most violent appeals to the Southern
peopIe-appeals that never would be made
were there not a pressing necessity for them.
There can be no question but that this
course is dictated by distrust in the masses.
The leading traitors evidently fear the con-
sequences of leaving the people to their own
thoughts and to the promptings of their inn
ate loyalty. An occasional letter from the
South, written despite the surveillance IN
der which the mails have been placed, re-
veais the existence Of Union sentiment
the nucleus around which strong and
powerful party will rally at the first indica-
ton Of returning reason. The leaders know
the fact and fear it. Not any less signlf-
cant is the silence Of Senator Hammond of
South Corolna. lie is not heard from in
any Of the secession bulletins that come to
hand. He evidently has his eye upon the
"mudsiis' Of society in his own State. SO
likewise in regard to the conduct of Mr..
Slidel. He openly announce that Louis
lana is bound to leave the Union, but ut the
time he is e candidate for reelection to the
United States Senate, and has himself urged
for that Office by his organs. lie swims
with the current, but his action proves that
he knows the current will soon change its
direction. These are but few of the
many Indications, adverse to the aims of the
Secession's,s. that every day now produces.

for this proposition, as it had been the one
great object Of his life to secure such
grand result. The great evil of our times
IS sectioualsm, and the danger OF division

new means to cement together the States
