If the foregoing should be favorably receiv ed by your patrons, Messrs. Editors, you may ezpeot from me other matter from the earns ancient source whence this is taken. In our present struggles with those who would de prive us of the inestimable boon of our liber ties and the right of self-government, we can not too often or too studiously recur to the history of the past aad the wholesome and sage lessons it inspires and teaobes. The ed ifice our forefathers planned and erected for our protection and preservation, has been ruthfully demolished by the unwashed hands of Northern fanatics and vandals; but may we not hope that we of the South are com missioned by Providence to colleol the shat tered parts and reconstruct it into a more beautiful and enduring palladium of civil and religious liberty ?
