O.'liei d infbrmuti m ha* been com- ! mimic tied'o the Goveinment of the United I 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.
