In our last issde we spoke Of the organic
alton Of Society hav ing for its object
the Inauguration Of series Of popular en-
tertainments to procure means to aid the
fsmilies Of soldiers. We are pleased TO be
able to state that tho effort is now fully or
ganized and that tho public may expect the
first entertainment, which will be lecture
by one of our own citizens, to be given
next Friday evening. There is much in
terest manifested by our young people in
tie success of the Society, aud as long as
such interest is maintained there must be
fattering results. We urge our citizens
generally to not only patronize liberally
these entertainments, but that they attend
the meetings of the Society and thus lend
their influence in every way to the encour-
agement oftf good work intended. And
by all means let there be full house at
the first lecture next Friday evening.
We understand there arc some capital
tabloaux in rehearsal TO be public in the
holiday season. A card in another place

STATES RIGHTS IN SOUTH CAuOIU-
NA-DENUNOIAEION OF DAVIS.

The States rights extremists Of South
Carolina did more than any other class of
meh at the South to precipitate tho Secos.
sion movement, and there are now no moro
angry or disappointed individuals in the
Coufoderacy. Mr.. Robert Barnwell Rhctt
an avowed disunionist long before Mr. Lin
coins first election, has introduced tho
following resolutions in the South Carolina
Legislature, in which he denounces in iicrco
tcrms tho recent policy Of jeff. Davis:
ReSolreci, That tho sovereign States COM
posing the conlcdoracy OF the Conrcderat to
States are not amenablc to the GoYcrnm ell
OF the Confederate States for their exist.
encc; and that any laws passed. by Congress
eonscripting their officers into the army of
the Confederate States, whereby the ordi-
nary operations of State Governments may
DO disturbed or arrested, are AIgrart usur-
pations to which tho States should not
submit.
ResoIre'i, That by the terms of tlio Con-
stitution OF the Confederate States Congress
can make no law abridsins the free TON of
the press. Therefore. all legislation by
Congress bearing upon eithcr the material
OF the press or the persons producing it.,
by which its freedom is abridged, is un-
constitutional.
ResOloeti, That the Constitution esaecially
prescribes that no capital or direct tax
shall be paid unless in proportion to tho
census, and that representation and direct
taxes shall bo apportioned among the
States. Any direct toxation, therefore,
against these provisions is plainly uncon-
stitutional.
I,,,.y 4 - A
slavery IL exclusively under the jurisdic-
ton and control Of tho sovereign States
Any law passed by Congress to emancipate
n slave IN any State, or to appropriate
money from the Treasury, of tho Uonfcder-
ate States to emlncipato tho slave, is un-
constitutional and void
Preliminary to this declaration of griov-
ancss, the Governor asserts that South
Carolina was oppressed by the Richmond
authorities, and asks, tho Legislature to
"delinc more clearly, by statute, tho limits
OF the authority of the General Govern.

General Government upon this State, at
least, will abstract 80 much from the little
bone and sinew that is left in the land as
to leave us cneryatod, paralyzed and COM
paratively helpless in our own defense. -.
lie alleges that South Carolina, with a
voting population of about forty-scven
thousand, has furnished at least sixty five
thousand troops to The Confederate army,
and that OF the thousands Of State officers
whom she might have cla;mel as exempts
from that service, there are less than one

were landed. A naval force accompanied

several miles in various directions, driving
the enemy before them at every. point.
The day was thus consumed in reconnoii-

carthworks at Honey Till. These were
Immediately driven in, and determined and
severe sighting commenced between our
men on tho open ground aud the enemy in
his intrcnchmcnts, and lasted for several
hours. Three gallant charges were made
OH the rebel works by tho Union soldiers;

between the Nashville and Lebanon pixies
met large body of rebels, whom they
skirmishcd with and drove oil. 1t is re-
ported that that the rebels have planted a
battery at uarpeth shoals; on the Tcnnes-
see river, and gunboAt has gono to look
after it. Meantime transports are not al-
