.
“Melancholy spectacle!” quoth the At
las, and we echo the exclamation. ■ Buj
how cheering a spectacle to the abolition
ists ! How must they gloat over these divi
sions, and how despise the weak and truck
ling spirit, that smoothes and makes easy
the very way they have “blazed” for the
accomplishment of their infernal designs.
We are amazed at the fatuity that indites
such sentiments as those embraced in the
foregoing extracts from the Mobile Regis
ter. “ Fully concurring in the view of
the convention as to the wrongs and the
dangers of the south” ; yet the Register
enters its “most unqualified and decided pro
test” against the only feasible plan to ar
rest those wrongs and save the south from
those dangers. What more does aboli
tion want than this? How more plain
lyjcould it be told to lay on the lash, upon
our obedient backs, and roll on the ac
cursed wave of fanatical agitation that is to
whelm us in its desolating waters? We
are wronged, we are in danger! but for
God's sake, do not think of resistance!
To resist in the only effectual mode is the
“worst form of political and social sui
cide.” We protest against both the poli
cy and the truth ofthese declarations. But
admitting it were true, is it not better to
meet our fate with a manly effort to avert
it, than with prostrate forms, hugging the
dust and cringing before our reckless foes?
And has it come to this ? Is it true that
the “Peace measures” have reduced us to
this fearful dilemma, that danger and de
struction must be our doom whether we
submit or resist ? Are we ieally in this aw
ful predicament! Then we say, the time
for action has come—the time to make the
struggle is upon us, even though it be a
death struggle with the overpowering fa
tality of our condition. But we say it is a
false libel on the spirit and power for self
preservation that exists in the south, to say
that resistance to admitted wrong, involves
aelf-destruction. [We say we are
than our oppressors, and it is only be
cause of the accursed croakers ot the for
rum and the press, that the south is not
now exerting that Herculean strength to
defend her institutions and send dismay
;and defeat into the ranks of her enemies.
[We have the, power to redress our wrimg s,
and to save the union too, And it is such
counsels as those of the Mobile Register
Jthat is dooming both our rights and the un
ton to destruction. The thing is as easy
and as simple as adding two and two to
gether. We want nothing but unanimity
!mong ourselves—nothing but for the
outh to r.se up as one man, and say to
tiis Government, give us JUSTICE, or we
break forever the political ties that unite
tis. Would that produce dissolution ? So
far lrom it, it is the only way to save the
Union. The Government would comply
with such a demand. It would not dare to
refuse it—the north itself would comedown
with an avalanche of public opinion upon
Congress, and force it, at the price of bare
justice, to save the north from the deso
lating evils of a_dissolutioii of the Unions
By this course the real conservatism ofthe
north would be aroused—the Sewards and
the Greeleys would sink in dismay bqfore
the uprising torrent of a violently excited
interest ; and the members of Congress
would be relieved from the slavery of. pub
lic opinion which sow forces them to per
secute the south and to anti-slavery agita
tion, as the price ot their seats.
The north knows this as well as we do ;
and its honest m6n, its true Patriots, like
Paulding are amazed at the cowardice,
the tolly, the gross infatuation which pre
vail in Southern Councils, and which bind
the arm of the Giant in helpless impo
tence to his side.
We say this course would secure us jus
tice. It we had the power to speak one
single week, for the whole south, and to
utter its sentiments with the sanction that
they would be sustained by its courage
and its might; we would stake our life
on settling this question, past, as well as
present and future, on the principles of
perfect justice, and on the basis of the
constitution. ,
/ But what when timidity,
treachery and folly aredaily pouring their
destructive counsels into the southern ear!
when the danger and wrong are belittled
—the difficulties of remedy magnified, aud
prominent above the great questions of
right and liberty, prosperity and life, are
forever heard the songs of the hypocritical
s Wo say bless the union, if it affords us
the position and the rights of a free citi
zen; and curse the Union, if it makes us
a slave, and an inferior to the yaukee.
The worst of all this folly is, that it is
leading to the very perils, which these
men pretend so much to fear. This ques
tion must be settled.. It not settled peace
ably and constitutionally, it will be set
tled by the sword and in blood. Every
new act of submission in the assailed sec
tion, provoking new energy and courage
in the assailants, increases the danger aud
approximates the crisis. Who supposes
the south will..give up its slaves without
blood ! And who that knows the spirit of
abolition, doubts that to force their being
given up, js their final object! The crisis
is impending, and it will come at that pre
cise moment of time, when the north
thoroughly persuaded of southern cow
ardice and non-resistance, will take some
over-bold step which shall at last arouse
the people to a sense of the danger of their
institutions.
The country is this moment in a revolu
tionary crisis. Under this calm exterior
there slumbers the elements of a volcano.
; Our planters have never yet realized that
their slave property was really in danger.
Nor is tit is wonderful, when we consider
the quiet and retired nature of their em
ployment*—they arc in the country,
Sowing, planting and harvest
-iog ; in the enjoyment of their pro
petty and in their relations with
their happy stives'. “ They cawrtotaealize

rtfliTas an evil day, afar -frif. - once,'’
carry this truth home to their minds; once
break the spell of security which it is the
vocation of submission to throw around
them; ud then the revolution is begun.
Now just as certain as we hold this pen,
do we believe this period is to come. Abo
lition and submission are working hand
in hand to bring it about. When it comes
it will be too late to save the union. It
will havf fallen a victim to lawless ag
gression on one side, and base submission
on the other. Note it may be >aved—but
never, so long as union parties are formed,

practised.at the south. There are times in
— 1 —— -
the history of nations as well as men, when
audacity is prudence; and when the
counsels of abused “enthusiasts” and “ul

Editor'! Correspondence.
Mobile, Feb. 1831.
I almost despair, however, of seeing the
people of the south sufficiently aroused to
the contemplation of the dangers which
surround them, until some tangible and
overwhelming calamity overtakes them.
The times are commercially too prosper
ous ; cotton is too high. The people are
nearly out of debt; and they are disposed
to reason as the Irish member of Parlia
■ merit did when he was importuned to vote
tor some measure for the benefit of poster
ity, which involved some present loss.—
“What has posterity done for me, that I
should make any sacrifices for posterity!”
So with the people—they say “let pos
terity take care of these great questions.
Trouble inay be put off for our time.
j~ Base, ignoble and cowardly as this “put
off the evil day ” policy may be, there
can be no doubt that in our day and gen
eration there are thousands who are ac
tuated by such motives- in the course they
advocate to be pursued on the great issues
now upon us. The action of South Caro
lina may precipitate the crisis; if that
State too, does not swallow her declara
tions aud back out from her lofty resolves,
as Georgia has done That State now
holds the destiny of the south in the hol
low of her hands. And if she prove re-,
creant, our fate is sealed for half a centu
ry to come. Consolidation, a splendid
national government, corruption, aboli
tion measures, aud all the evils of Pando
ra’s box will be let loose upon our country,
unless we may be so fortunate as to find
some modern Cromwell, bold, daring and
talented enough to seize the reins of pow
er, and hold them with an equal hand by
the “grace of God,” over all sections of
his domains, I prefer one tyrant to mil
lions, if that is the alternative. If on the
other hand. South Carolina acts up to her
high destiny, and treads the open path ot
duty, honor, interest and patriotism, eve
ry southern heart, not traitorous to its
home and interests will leap for joy. And
should a drop ot southern blood be shed
by the unhallowed hand of federal power,
300,009 southern men would unsheath the
sword, never to be returned to its scab
bard until every mercenary soldier were
driven across the Potomac, and every
federal ship far, Beyond the coast of
ern States. The abstract right of a itate
to secede from the uifcbp* P° southern
kState has been mean and base enough to
deny. With all the submission tendency
ot two or three of them, the most of them
have repeatedly asserted tha right—some
as a constitutional right, because all “pow
ers not granted are reserved to the States,”
and this not being granted, must be re
served ; others as an extra constitutional
right, resulting from the very nature of
the federal compact (which (is the true
doctrine in tny view,) others again, as a
right synonimous with, and in its effects
equivalent to revolution— last, for
getting that our slaves of the African race
can claim the same right—-a right of-na-.
tuH antecedent to all human contrivances
of government, or arrangement of aocia
relations.
Our State is progressing in the organiz
ation of “Southern Rights Associations.”
They will be finally organized in every
county I think. Our association here is
i on the increase in members and respecta
bility. We hope these organizations may
dh good to the cause of Southern Rights,
by spreading inlbrmation among the peo
ple, and counteracting thepoisonous mala
ria emanating from the few free soil
presses of the State—but I confess that it
has the appearance to my mind of a very
small beginning, and a very inadequate
means to accomplish the deliverance of
our people from federal thraldom ; and to
enable us to reclaim the empire of which
the north has robbed us, through the aid
of a few southern traitors, and to secure
amnesties for the future. The times re.
quire bolder measures—and until we learn
some other mode of conveying ourthoughts
and opinions than by resolutions on pa
per our enemies will laugh at us; for
Georgia passed resolutions, and all that;
and even Virginia passed resolutions, but
dont seem to care much about them.
I fear som> of our people are beginning
to look forward to the next Presidency as
a game we may play at. Even the South
ern Press at Washington has recently
given out some squintings that way.—
Now, I say, we have no more business
with making a President than we have
with fiudingout the successor to the reign
ing Sultan at Constantinople. For one,
I do not care whe'ther we have one or not;
the secretaries can carry on the govern
ment well enough for us. If the great
Union loving party can only call off the
south into a scramble for the Presidency,
why all’s right; California, Wilmot, Tex
vas and all that will sleep—and the field
t will be open for another onslaught on our
’ rights. If we are in the “glorious union”
when the time arrives for choosing, and
we find that we can decide between two
rogues, which shall have the treasury, it
may be well to cast a vote—but certainly,
in my poor judgment, the most ridiculous
figure a true Southern Rights man can
show himself in, would be to become
prominent as a President maker. If the
true friends of our southern institutions are
, true to their objects they will eschew all
federal alliances, and political combina
tions, until our rights are secured and ac
knowledged, or finally (if that sad event
must come) abandoned to their fate.—
Let us wait and see what will be produced
finally by the boiling of the political caul
dron at Washington ; all the spirits are at
work with their incantations, and it “dou
ble, double, toil and trouble” is not the
result, I shall be mistaken in my calcula
tions. We may not be surprised to find
Clay and Cass on a Presidential card in
the columns of the Union paper at Wash
ington ere long, and a warm eulogy upou
Mr Clay as a “Southern man and Slave
holder,” by Thomas Ritchie, as one per
fectly reliable for the south! and Mr
Cass as the great “ non-interventionist,”
j Nicholson letterman—notwithstanding his
tenderness of conscience in the Senate,
when the fugitive slave law was passed
without his vote—or, as an off-set to this
we may see Cobb, of Georgia and Seward
on the ticket of a convention in the city of
New York or Boston—those union loving
cities.
In conclusion, my dear sir, I must in
candor ana sincerity declare to you, that
i I am disheartened, and almost ready to
j abandon all hope of the south. I once
believed, that in the last resort the south
I could ic would be united for the defence of
j her honor—her institutions and her con
j stitutional rights. We have given up all
I we had to the command of our enemies ;
j and our owm sons have ministered at the
altar where the sacrifice was offered up.
If we attempt to punish the treason, we
inflict blows possibly where they are not
so much deserved. If we seek out the
traitors, we enter the chambers of our
neighbors, our countrymen, our friends
and relations. Our Southern society is
rapidly becoming alienated and divided.
Even in our own family circles, we find
antagonisms which are at war with good
feelings, and tending to heart-burnings
and strife; old friends are separated, and
we tread on ground daily, which trembles
beneath our feet. All this is the work of
the abolition agitation. This result they
had the sagacity to foresee and predict.
The injuries they have already inflicted
on southern society is irreparable; and
yet there are poor creatures among us,
Who apologize for our enemies, and sing
hozannahs to the “glorious union,” and
who profess not to see that we have any
cause for complaint against our “northern
brethren”!
* * * * *
I read your paper with great interest and
satisfaction —seldom ever differing from
youatall—neveron material points. You
are right, but let the States be prepared to
defend their acts by arms, for this will
probably be the result. All my hopes are
now centered on S'>uth Carolina ; it she
quails before the Federal Colossus, all is
lost!
COMBINATION AGAINST GOV. QUITMAN
The zeal displayed by Gov. Quitman,
in the cause of Southern Rights, has pro
voked a degree of rancour against him
by the submission press of the South, and
ttie myrmidouis of our anti-slavery Presi
dent generally, rarely equal in our politi
cal annals. The result will recoil on the
iieadsof those who pursue him so vindic
tively. It is destiued to make Gov. Quit
man the most popular man in the South
ern Slates. In another column is an arti*
cle from the Charleston Mercury, quoting
portions of Gov Quitman’s proclamation
iu which he declares himself ‘‘unconscious
of having, in any respect, violated the laws
of the country.”
\Y*e confidently predict his acquittal.
We copy the following indignant com
ments ou this subject, from the Mississippi
an:
The Combination Against
MAN. —No mau has i ver b* en treated
with sucii foul injustice as Gov. Quit
man. We have never seeu a paral
lel to the abuse that has been heaped
upon him. Ridicule, falsehood, slan
der, and misrepresentations of every kind,
are freely resorted to by his assailants.
And the system by which the warfare is
kept up, North and South the pensioned
ret liners of the administration are doing
their utmost to destroy his character and
iuflueuce.
Their pretext is his alleged participation
in the expedition to relieve the Cubans
from the yoke of a tyramcal government!
btft there is more in the assaults upon him
than meets human eye. The real design
of bis assailants is to strike down a man
whose elevated character, prowess on the
field, and far reaching sagacity render him
a formidable antagonist to* the ruling
powers iu their attempt to trample upon
the Rights of the Southern States. The
instigators of the attacks aim to degrade,
iu the person ol her Chief Magistrate, a
State which has taken a high and ‘com
manding position in defence of Southern
rights. They wish also to illustrate the
much vaunted strength of the Federal
Government by dragging from hislluties
the Chief Executive officer of a sovereign
State, to be tried upon a frivolous charge.
Such are the main purposes of the villi,
fiers of Gov Quitman. and to these we
may add a rancored hatred which his un
awed maintenance of the rights of Missis
sippi has engendered.
In the systematic war upon the Gover-.
nor of the State, every principle of justice
and common decency, have been etat de
fiance. His case has been prejudged ;
and every expedient has been resorted to,
to mould public sentiment against him : in
asmuch as the threat has been vauntingly
made that he shall be arrested, and for
ced to abandon for an indefinite period his
official duties ; common justice required
that the public mind should hive been
left unbiassed, so that a lair and unpreju
diced hearing mighlbnve been extended
to him. The organists in the service of
the administration have left no means un
used io warp the judgments of its parti
sans, by proclaiming ‘hr and wide that the
president and Cabinet have taken the case
into consideration, weighed testimony and
decided upon its merits. For prool of this
we will reler the reader loan extract from
a late New York Express, which we find
copied in the Vicksburg Whig of Tues
day. The Express coolly says:
“Thei President has sufficient testimony
to convict him ten times over the charge
brought against him.”
The design is transparent and barefaced
t> escape detection. J lie charge is made.
The offence imputed to him sos assisting
a people groaning under the weight of
oppression )is magnified into a crime or
startling enormity. Able counsel are ein
ployed .it enormous expense to assist the
Federal officers in the prosecution of the
accused. And at whatever sacrifice to
uuth, justice and fair dealing, the case
must be made out. — Mi a sis sip pi mi.
The Wreck of the America.—All
Hands Saved. —Captain Broad well, of
this steamboat, wrecked ofl Cape Hatteras
on the night of the 27th ult. arrived in the
city yesterday, with the whole of the crew.
The third boat, under the charge of George
Martin, the mate of the steamboat, on leav
ing tlie wreck succeeded in reaching Hat
teras Lighthouse, a distance of 7 miles, af
ter rowing 12 hours, so much were they
nindered by the vioh nee of the wind and
waves. They were kindly received by
the keeper of the lighthouse and entertain
ed for 3 days, it being impossible to reach
the main land on account of the heavy sea
They were at Inst landed at Elizabeth City
from which place to Norfolk they were
conveyed free of r barge it. a stage coach.
At Norfolk, where they arrived on Wed
nesdays pleasant surprise awaited them
in meeting Captain Broadwell and all
their companions in misfoituiie, from
whom they had been seperated from the
time they left wreck. All three parties
came from different directions and met at
Norfolk—two at least being unconscious of
the safety of the others; so that the joy of
all at this happy reunion may be better
imagined than described.
At Norfolk the Captain and crew were
tendered a free passage to Baltimore by
Captain Russel, of the steamboat Herald
and were most hospitably treated during
the passage. The agents of the Baltimore
and Philadelphia Railroad C< mpany, with
equal generosity, forwarded them oi> to
this city without expense. The whole
party arrived at home about 3 o’clock yes
terday afternoon, bringing the first intelli
gence of the safety of the boat.

The Richmond Examiner, ( Va.) which

papers in the whole south, thus sets off”

“What a pleasant mess! They iiave at

hash,” and their “cake is dough.” Five
democrats among thirty-nine whigs! Five
democrats “dealingdamnation lound” the
democratic party, proclaiming a proscrip
tion against the great mass of democratic
citizens! They will not “support”— they] :
Alas, Mrs. Partington! where now is the j
glory of your mop and patterns? Cobb, ]

Flinte, Quince, Snout, Starveling— !

from the south, no democrat shall ever be
President again, unless he has dreampt
their Midsummer’s Night Dream. Woe
unto us! Which way shall we flv? Who
shall preserve us Irom the wrath of
Foote?
It is a matter of curious remark that n
inoug, the select circle whose names orna.
inent these pages, very few are undoomed
to the shades of private life at the close of
the piesent session. Not one from New
England is re-elected; only one from New
York; —while the large majority of the
southern subinissionists will never be heard
of again, ave on the roll which History
will keep, and which she will head with
the name of Arnold.
This new Jacobin Ciub was gotten up,
we understand, as a sort of “Mutual Insu
rance Company’ for shaky subinissionists,
tvas pounced upon bv the Presidential aspi
rants as men in the water catch at straws.
Thus did Clay get into it. Houston’s name
was also once upon the list. But when
he found out the way the wind laid, hi;
broke the “pledge” with the ease of an
experienced drunkard. He has been late
ly signing every thing, and joining every
party, in hopes that he may at last light
upon the one that will ride him into the
White House. Thus he was.gotten as
dry nurse to that still-born bab*, the Union
party, —which he also dropped like a hot
potatoe immediately afterwards. Several
others signed it from sheer folly and imbe
cile stupidity. In this class, we place the
unhappy little rush-light over whom the
Stale ol Mississippi has lately clapped its
extinguisher; also, the delectable Jeremiah
Clemens. But where shall we set down
the hapless Cobb? He is no fool. We
did not know that he needed an insurance.
What conceivable motive enticed his paws
into this steel-trap? What must be his
sensations and reflectior.o’wi tbis pillory of
political “poor-devils!” The fact that his
conduct has been wicked in itself, and trea
sonable t< his party, will gDe him little
pain. But his misery will be punishment
enough when .lie reflects what a/00/—fool!
—fool! he has made Jof himself in the
presence of the whole country. He has
declared war against the party who gave
him his Speakership—invokes organiza
tion against all democrats who do not sub
scribe to a compromise constitution,—and
finds himself in a minority of five- He
joins Clay and Foote—Antony and Lepi
d us—fora proscription of the south—and
goes back to a southern constituency for a
seat in Congress. Judean, thou hast thrown
awav a pearl! A year ago Cobb comman
ded the chess board ; to-day his chance in
the game will be overstated by 0.

FALL AND FUSION OF PARTIES.
The majority in the Georgia Convention
that adopted the report and resolutions,
met afterwards and formed a political or
Union party, to supercede the Whig and
Democratic parties of that State. Messrs
Toombs and Stephens were foremost in the
movement. Thus has perished in Geor
gia the nationality of two great parties of
the country. Indications justify the be
lief that the same will be made in other
States, and a national union party, compo.
sed of all who are opposed to the exaction
of strict constitutional right will be formed.
The umvary are to be wheedled into its
support by the empty and indefinite watch
word of Union.
VVeare to be taught that the Union of
the Stales is paramount to every other
Consideration and that this must be pre
serve.-! even at the expense of constitu
tional liberty- and Stale rights. If those
who are in favor of building up such a par
ty, wouid reflect that the unhappy dissen
sions thnt distract the countiy have grown
solely out of a violation on the part of
Congress, of the rights of the States, and
that the preservation of these is the best,
the only preservative a( tiie Union, th-y
might spare themselves the labor, we
might say the sin, of manufacturing a par
ty whose most prominent feature looks
and leads to consolidation.
The old Fedeiaiists of the country are,
without doubt, the prime movi rs ot the
project, and they will all constitute mem
bers of the party. Its tendency is to the
accomplishment of their long cherished
doctrines—the doctrines of centrality, on
the erection of one strong central govern
ment out of tin* whole Union, obliterating
Slate sovereignly and State independence.
It behooves the friends of State rights
and constitutional liberty to be on the al
ert, They cannot be io vigilant in the
present state of affairs. Under the gu'se
of a Union devotion an insidious attack is
t<> be made upon great conservative fea
tures of the Constitution, but for which
our forefathers would have scorned to en
ter the Confederacy.

ample, and their opinions as reliable as any other

As the advices per Canada from Jfajvetpoof of
18th January, are so contrary to the general antic
ipations on this side, it is interesting to ascertain
the cause of the di-appointment The circulars
received attribute it to various causes, some to the
tact that spinners having Itought freely at tbe close
of December, are now working their imported cot
tons, and neglecting the Liverpool market, m order
to depress prices and buy largely on this side, at w .‘
duceil limits, others to the apprehension entetlainaj
