b Col. Haynes communication to the President
was completed and delivered at a late hour las

The document assumes the complete indepen,
dence OF South Carolina, and this assumption
carries with it the first proposition under the
second head. He argues that the proposition
of the Administration is absurd il the forts bt
regarded as property, and the purpose be te
protect it. He considers the various ways o
protecting property, and shows that collision
will not afford protection, whether the fort be
taken or not, the property will he injured, =
This injury he says can be avoided. and every
dollar secured, as South Carolina pledges hersel
to pay its full value. The communication pro.
ceeds to consider the question as one OF prop
erty--one fdollars and cents--as the Govern
ment based its whole action on the idea Of pro
tecting property. Col, Hayne contends that th'
question should be considered as one inyolvine
property alone and as such could easily be ar
ranged. He says further, that he is instructed
to assure the President that any attempt to
reinforce the fort will be considered a declar
alton Of war. 1.s pt, ,{e
