"Fas est alb Hoste Doceri.'

For the comfort Of those OF our friends
who vainly endeavored to prevent South
Carolina from sending delegates to the Ma.
tional Democratic Convention, we reprint
some extracts from letter written to the
Hon. C. W. Dudley by Ex-Governor James
L. Orr, in 1855, in which letter the reasons
why the State Democracy should be repre-
sented in the National Convention are tersely
and forcibly put:
"Shall the Democracy of this State send
delegates to the National Convention? 1t is
our privilege to be represented there, and, at
the present time, believe it to be high and
solemn duty to meet our political allies, and
to aid, by our presence and counsels, in select
ing suitable nominees and constructing plat.
form which will secure our rights and uphold
the constitution.
''Shall we adhere to our isolation and stub
bornly refuse to fraternize with the balance OF
our Southern sisters? Who doubts that all
the South will be represented there and can
1t be said truthtully that our voice can be OF
no avail or weight when the ultimatum shall
be laid down? live send delegates, who can
say that our votes may mot secure reliable
nominee and soun' PLATFORM
''Sooner or later we must learn the impor-
tant truth that the fate and destiny of the en-
tire South is Identical. Isolation will give
neither security nor concert. When we meet
Virginia and Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi
in consultation, 1t is the supremacy of Phari-
saism to fllppanty denounce such association
as either dangerous or or'degrading. North Caro-
lima, Missouri, Florida and Texas will be there
representedi and are we too exalted,or con-
ceited to meet them at the same council
board
coneert among ourst lives, with the aid of
'ie conservative men at the Nerth, may en-
aoie us 10 save constTtut ional Union; if that
cannot oe preserved, it wi Il enable US to save
