POLITICAL.

We have no very late news from Wash
ingtoa or South Carolina. Every thing
seems to he m Stdf3 q1o. Gent. Scutt,
formerly denomiuatcd "old fuss and fcath-
ers," is in favor of cocrcinS the seeding
States; but the old chap is getting old
and childish, and cannot do much harm,
as "hasiy plate of soup" will not now do
him much good, aifa perhaps "fire in the
rear" might end his very eventful career"
"Old Buck" has delivered another message
to Congress, in relation to the affairs of
the nation, and of South Carolina in par
ticular. lie has been accused by some of
the first officers of the Government with
being entity Of deceit, fraud, living, &c,
yet the old fanetionary says that he will
retire from the Presidency with clear
conscience, after running the nation, bank
rupting the treasury, and leaving the two
sections of the country at war with each
other The old sinner" must have the
brass OF the ID to make such statements
to an enlightened people, who have watch
ed his reasonable career for Years past.
The Soutli-the innocent South-placed
the most implicit confidence in him in
1885, aud gave him nearly unanimous
vote for the position he has occupied for
the past four years as President of the
United States position second to none
IN the world. But she has become the
victim of misplaced confidence in one
whom she thought worthy to be her friend
i'll veal and i'll woe. That confidence
has been betrayed, and the Southern reo-
pie find themselves compelled to stand up
IN defence OF their honor, their fircsidcs
and their Institutions This they will do.
ana we hope that it VIII learn the North.
Sh people lesson never TO he forgotten
that although she may be the weaker sec.
ton, She viii not be tyrannizcd over bv
the stronger. We hope that this lesson
may have Il salutary effect, and strike
conviction to the hearts Of those whose
business is to-stcal "nigycrs."
The question of slavery must now bc
settled. 1t has been agitatcd long enough,
and If it cannot be settled within the
| mon, it must be settled out Of it. III
should not be il future hobby by which !
political dcmrgogurs can ridrinto power. a-
has been the case heretofore.
We would much rather see these diff
entities settled within the Union, but III
they cannot be, let it be done out OF It hv

'rn STATES, for united We s,and-diyidrA |
We fall"
/ he political horizon looks dark and
l'ony -Four States have alrrad seeded
rom the Uniou,-South Carolina, Ala
'ana, Florida and Mississippi.
There is no doubt but that GEORGIA..

Jackson, which are situated within the
limits of the State of Louisiana. We be-
licvc that 10 blood was shed on the occa-
sion of the taking of these forts, as they
generally were inhabited by few "old
criPplcs' who were placed there for the
purpose Of keeping the public property in
good order and TO sweep the forts ont
when j. was required. The taking of
these forts was hcralded forth by the "
O. Delta as a great and unhcard Of victory,
and that the GOODNESS, bravery and ingc-
nuity of those who captured them has
never been surpassed in any age Of the
world
An idea must have struck Gov. Moore
that he probably might become second
Napoleon if he should carry ont
his warlilr Propcnsiiirs, and hc might
become the ruler of the whole universe
after carrying cut such daring undcrta-
kings as those we have chronicicd above.
The State of I.ouisian is still member
of the Federal Union. Her State Con
vention has not yet met and passed So.
ccssion ordinance, and we cannot see bv
what right Gov. Moore has to take presses
sion OF Government property before the
State seccdcs from the Union, unless h.
has set himself mp As the Aniocrai Of the
State, ana takes his authority "by the
divine right Of king"
For our part We 'hnk that his " impc-
rial majesty" should have waited tnr the
Withdrawal Of his State from the Federal
Union before h" TOOK upon himself S,;rr-
rior authority, %s he might rs well take
possession of The property of private ind;
viduals and appropriate it to his own usc,
as To lake possession Of that which did
not broag to the State.
But then the question would be asked,
was not the State in danger from the fact
that these forts, which we believe have
never been used, were inhabited bv these
"old cripple," who might, if clra@,A,
brig ram an" d'>'ia'ion upon the whole
state by their rF'"'aN and daring. We
