the people were not then siifllciently
awake to tho wrongs of tho .South,
though John C. Calhoun imd even then
(might the people of Carolina the true
character, and inevitable rosulta of
Abolition aggression. And whatever
may liavo boon our past political dif
ferences of opinion, or however strong
our attachment to the Union of our
fathers, the time has certainly arrived
when every Southern man should stand
shoulder to shoulder in defeneo of our
firesides. Let there ho no wrangling—
no division, no allusion to old parties,
now extinct forever; hut lot every
Southern man vie with his neighlMii-
iu zeal and .devotion to tho South.—
Wo nro now engaged in a war involv
ing our dearest rights and interests,
and thu security of our firesides, fami
lies nml homes. If wo stand unitud, a
world in arms cannot conquer us, hut
if wo suffer dissonstoiiH to spring uj
among us, wo will becotno tho conquer*

Tho Cclonios in tlio Revolution of
’70 had ft tliousauil fold Ions provoca

try, than, wo liavo for resisting tlio
North. Tho stamp act, and' a small

■ow with Aatl-Frictipn Ball, tho*o who | 10 or 15 yearn staiuling. i\ hilo in our

Our oditor, writing from tho brigndo
encampment near Mario!ta, tnndo an
error in sending tho letter, so that wo
only received the following portion of
it:
lien. Phillips is a large fino looking
man, wPh (flensing maimer aud n pop
ular turn, und excellent natural qualifi
cations for tlio office, to which ho
intends to devoto ids entire ou-
ergics. Ilia Adjutant, Miy. Cupors,
seems to huv« a com plot o knowledgo
or tactics, grout exjierionoo nud a natu
ral luiiqilution for a commanding ofli-
cor, as well as oxcollont ncconiplisli-
incuts. He is extensively praised l»y
nearly every man in tho camp. Cnpt.
Magrudor is highly complimented, as is
also Cupfc. Stovall, and wo believe tlio
Romo delegation generally, U.regarded
as inferior to uouo in tlio encampment.
To-day tboro has boon an election of
officers for tho 1st Regiment or this
Brigade, which resulted in tho elioico
of W. T. Wofl'oiiI, of Cass, for Colonel,
•S. Z. Hit If, of Marietta, for Lieut. Col.,
and Jelf. .Johnson, of l’loyd, for Miyor.
Tho election of ollicors for tlio 2nd
Regiment, and also tho Riflo Hatallion,
has boon postponed for a few days.
liov. Brown is daily oxpcctod hero.
Unless tlio Brigade, or somo portion
ol it is ordered into actual service bo-
forc the expiration of that time, tho
encampment will probably coutiiino
somo twenty days. 1>.

tho virtue of tlio Intclligoncor can ro-
sist.
tin-eaten against us. They say tlio
government must ho sustained, nml
thoy talk about tho flag—tho stars nnd

Suhtuin tiiogovorniuont! Thatistimir

South—expend millions of mouoy, aud
if thoy attompt to currv out tlioir wnr
luuuMiros, tiiey will dulugo tlio land

Tiiey do not stop to cuquiro whether
tiie measures of tlio government nro
just or unjust, right or wrong. Why do
tiiey not inquire into tho elaiius whicli
lilies govoiumoiit sets up against the
South, he foro they raise tho war cry?
'ossilfly a little calm and sober iuvosti-
Jttlion might oonviuco them, that per-

Bill beside tlioso insane threats of

dependent on thorn for tlioir existence
—tliut without the North wo would soon
starve-tlmt wo nro no account generally,
aud that they can come and Imng tho

millions of money and raising tens of
thousands of uiou to sustuin tho gov

Iu tlio madness that rules tho hour,
thoy scum to ho blind us venomous rep
tiles nro said to bo in dog days. Sus
tain tho government—uphold tho stars
and stripes—theso aro their reasons—
their pretexts for plunging thoinsolvos

iu tho Mexican war. But now to sus

And clnngingarmsnrc flourished bare.

Tho Charleston Moroury ox prestos tho
conviction that there will bo no
after all—not tlmt tho brutal party in
nscendutioy at tho North would not
gladly lay wasto tho South, but that is n
task of difficulty and i>oril and uwn’l
jhiy. They seo now that .thoy will havo
to light tlio wholo South, and subduo
overy man and keep him subdued—
nnd ;no holiday cumpaign will suflloo
for that.
Wo observe thnt tho Washington cor
respondent of tho Hultimoro Sun en
tertains a somewhat similar opinion.—
War will sul\joot tho northorn cities to
nnnrchy ami confusion—from which
nothing hut military dopotism can res
cue them. Tho certainty of this stato
of things is alarming to capitalists ami
others who rather nastily fannqil tho

fact that Hie conflict at Baltimore, tho
oilier day, botweon tho Massachusetts
troops nnd tlio Baltimoreans who resist
ed their passage''thro’ tho city, oecurrod
on tho. UHh of April, the anniversary of
the battle at Isexinyton. Tho one was tho
precursor of disgraceful defeat to tho
tuorcoiiaricH of George tho Third, tho
other is tho inauguration of a ivar
whoso results will provo equally dcstruo
tivo to those of Lincoln tlio First.

Nortli American contributes ono hun
dred thousand men to invade Virginia.
Tlio New York Tribuno anothor hun
dred thousand. Some Boston oditor or
other orders out fifty thousand more.
In reply wo command live hundred
thousand men, armed and equipped,
to spring out of Hie bowels of tlio earth,
and swallow up those two hundrod and
fifty thousand Yankees forthwith.—
The editors of America liavo been so
accustomed to speak in this language of
hyporbolo, that we wondor Uio Repub
lican newspaper* don't threaten us
with a million forthwith. Why not
two millions ? It is just as easy to writo
"a million,” and ousior than to writo
"live hundred thousand.” Oh, Blut-
teration, Gas, Humbug, what mighty
powers ye aro on earth! Why don’t
those magnificent oxftggcrfttors consid
er that it takes timo, to say nothing ol
tlio money, to put a hundred thousand
hum in an efficient condition for mili
tary sorvieo. Tlio .South lias tlio ad

hopo that no effort will bo mado by cit
izens of tlio South.to Ui|jto.possession of
the city of Washington, ami to expel tho
officials or the Government or tho
Vnited States from thoir abodos or
offices. Jf any such effort is mado bo-
foro Virginia and Maryland shall havo
secoded.from tlio Union ol tho United
States, it will bo very disastrous to tho
cimso- of secession. It will raiso tho
Stato pride of tho citizens of theso
proud Commonwealths, who will not bo
able to see,' with indifference, their
tetritories lawlessly Invaded and used
for an unlawful purpo.-o. And when
thoso States havo seceded, it will bo for
to sottlo their relations townrds

European War Clouds.—Tho Now

lottor from Vionna tlmt war will speed

determined to follow tho example of
the Italians, ami achieve a like success.
But tliis is not all. The lethargic Boho-
minus aro also aroused, and nro prepar
