Hail! south carolina.

South Carolina, the home ot Calhoun
the home Of notification in lS's-the
first to phrophe,y secession in lN1h,'and
reafiirm that hateful doctrine in 1850
the first Ia secele from the Union in 1861,
which at the commencement nf the rehel'
lion fired the first gun on the flag Of the
country, and now is the first state com
pletely reconstructed, and accepting the
full measure Of the Congressional acts for
her government, BY her vote she has
sealed herself 10 the Republican party as
firmly as Vermont, She adopt, radical
Republican constitution, and elects
radical Governor State officers, Congress
men and Legislature, which will IN
short time elect two Republican United
States senators,
Let all the people rejoice for the peace
full and perfect revolution which has
taken place in the spirit and sentiment OF
the people Of south Carolina, for it AZ
fcrds compensation FOR many Of her
wrongs and sorrows Thus has been
vigorously initiated the great reaction
against treason at the grave of that
able and dangerous man, John c, Cal.
hopn, whose hateful theories gave life
and license 10 an organized rebellion.
Other States have been delayed 10y proyi-
Dental causes perhaps that she, who first
Haunted the rebel banner. might be the
first to proclaim her loyalty, that they
might fnllnn- her lead in the great pro-
cession of freedom.
South Carolina has been for more than
thirty years under load OF slavery nd
aristocucy. Though boasting of some of
the "sacred places" Of the Revolution,
her contest has been protest agains,
genuine freedom, and her Statesmen have
ruled and lived as if they hated the in
stitutions that protected them, and dos
pissed the people of all other communities,
and nevcr has she been an honestmcmberoi
the American Union but she now comes
forth at the blast Of the great trumpet of
Liberty, and stands adorned in the radi-
ant garments of Republicanism. All hail
South Carolina.

subject OF the value of water power has

that losation known as the Rapids at the

THE CONGRESSIONAL MELEE. The
Utica Herald properly characteristics the
recent disgraceful wrangle in the House
of Representatives as "a pestilencc of vile
words and bitter attacks" We are sorry
to observe disposition to let off the Of
Tenders upon their halfway apology on
Monday. If there ever was case where
in punishment should be administered for
fagitious violation OF parliamentary
rules. and decency, this is one. If the
vilest blackguardism in Congress is TO be
pardoned simply for the asking, then
practically liberation is granted it. 1t is
certainly quite time an example Of pun
ishment, even to the severity Of expul-
sion, was inflicted as a means Of correct
ing growing evil and national dis
grace.
