MR. RUssELL's LETTER.

The letter Of Wm. H. Russell, the corres-
pondent of the London Times. IN which he ut
tributes to the people of South Carolina, a de-
sire to restore the old Royal Government. has
called forth an indignant protest from the
press of the State. and among other commun,-
cations a very able letter from the Attorney
General. Isaac W. HaYns. Mr.. Russell was
entirely mislej. We Indeed prefer one to
many mssters-the rule Of Old England to that
Of New Englsnd But we are not forced to the
alternative Of choosing between masters. We
desire rather to govern ourselves. and feel that
we are fully able to do 30.

KENTUCKY AND M1ssouE1.

These States were settled chiefly by Vir-

present residents of each are descendants of
Southern people. Kentucky and Missouri
adopted Southern institutions in the organiza-

have adhered to them ever since. From these
facts. foreign journa, deduees the conclusion
that Kentucky and Aiesonri will both ulti-
