V:r_r’.ni i to rc-’.-t with all her means any

ti,ms—with little or no debate, and with only I
some brief exphmati ns by members as they
voted —were pass'd by the almost unanimous .
vote of 112 sto 5 nays! This glorious :

by the Assembly itself, as well as the galleries.

a s< Sect committee pmmply to bring in a bill
providing for the calling of a Convention of!
the people to co .sider the exigencies of the
country.
The spirit manifested by’ the Legislature is i
the very best, and foreshadows harmony and ;

r,ui ■' ' the political conneclioti between the ]
State of d .uri 1 aiiilin i and the States '
whi 'h wrre known as the l i.m d States bad |
c'-as:! ; uid that the State of South Carolina'
h.i- • u in- I all the powers it bad delegated to
the U it 1 d States umler the compact known as
the Couslituliun cf the United States. The
I right which the State of South Carolina pos-
I w-ssed to change the political relations which
i snejl.ad held with the other States, under the
constitution of the United States, has been sol
emnly asserted by the people of this State in
, Convention ami now does not admit of discus
sion.
In anticipation of the Ordinance of Seces
. sion, of which the President ofthe United States i
had ollicial notification, it was understood by
(him that sen ding any reinforcements of troops
' of the I'nited Staten in the harbor of Charlcs
■ ton, would be regarded by the constitut'd au
i thoritics of the State of South Carolina as an
| act of hostility, and at the same time it was
i tv dersfood tiy him that any change in the oc
' cupation of tiie foits in the harbor of Charh s*
ton, would in like manner be regarded as an
act of hostiiitv. Either or both of these events
occurring dining the period in which the State
of South Caiolina constituted a part of the
United States, was then distinctly notified to
the President ofthe United States as an act or
nets of hostility, because either or both would
be regarded, ami could only be intended todis
pute the right of the State of South Carolina to
. mat political independence which sb ■ has al- i
ways asserted an I will always reta’n.
Whatever would have been, during the con
; tinuance of th s State while a member of the
i United States, an act of hostility, became much
j more so when the State of South Carolina had
dissolved till connection with the Government
!of the United States. After the secession of
the State of South Carolina, Fort Sumter con-
I tinned in the possession of the United States,
| How that so t is at this time in the possession!,
I of the troops of the United States, it is not
I now necessary to discuss. It will suffice to
’ say that the occupancy of that fort has been re
i garded as so unequivocal that it occasioned
the termination of the negotiations then peud
! ing al Washington between the coininission
] ms of tin* State of South Carolina and the Pres
i idt'ut of the United States.
The attempt to reinforce the troops now in
Fort|Snmter,mr restakejand resume posession of
the forts, within the waters of this Suite, which
yon abandoned after spiking the guns placed
"there, and doing otherwise much damage, can
not be regarded by the authorities of the State
a* indicative of any other purp. so than the co
ercion ofthe State by the armed forces of your
i Government. To repel such an attempt is too
i plainly a duty to allow it to be di mussed, and
while defending its wateis, the author ties of
the State have been careful to conduct the af
fairs of the SNjc so that no act, however ne
cessary for its defence, should lead to useless
i waste of life. Special agents, therefore, have
been off the Bar and warn all approaching ves
' seis, if armed or unarmed, ami having troops
to reinforce the fort or 'board, not t > enter the
harbor of Charleston, and special orders have
been given to the commanders of all the forts
ami batteries not to fire at -ueh until a shot Was
fired across their bow, would warn them of lhe
prohibition of the State. Under these eircum
stances, the Star of the West, it is understood,
this morning a<tempted to enter this harbor
with troops on boaid awl having been notified
that she could not enter, was fired into. The
| act is pmfectly justified by me. In reg. ird to
your threat in regard to vessels in this harbor
' it is only necessary to say that you must judge
of your own responsibility. Your position in
this h nbor has been tolerated by the authori
i ties of the State and while the act of which you
complain is in p rfect consistency with the '
! righ’s and duties of the State it is not perceiv
e! how far the conduct which you propose to
adopt can find a parallel in the. history of any
j country, or be reconciled with any other pur
pose of your Government than that of impo
; sing upon t'is State the condition of a con
quered provii.ee.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
THE PECULIARITIES of the female constitution
and the various trials to which the sex is subjected,
demand an occasional recourse to stimulants. It is
important, however, that these shall be of a harmless
nature, and at the same time accomplish the desired
end. Hostetter s Celebrated Stomach Bitters is the
very article. Its effects in all cases of debility are
magieal. It festorcs the tone of the digestive organs,
infuses fresh vitality into the whole system, and gives
that cheerfulness io the temperament, which is the
most valuable of feminine attractions. The proprie
tors feel flattered from the fact that many of the most
prominent medical gentleipan in tte Union have
bestowed encouiums upon the Bitters, the virtues of
which tiny have frequently tested and acknowledged.
