Be it Resolved by thie General Assembly, That it is necessary to the preservation of tho peace, the pros perity, the safety and the honor of the State ot South Carolina, that she should secede from the non-slave- holding States, which control and direct the General 'Government. 2.

Transmitted Expressly for the Daily Morning News. Arrival of the Arctic. FOUR DAYS LATER FROSildVROPE. ADVANCE IN COTTON! New Yohk, Dec. 5, 10] A. M. ( Received in Savnnnali, 10, 33 A. M. ) The American steamship Arctic, has arrived t bringing Liverpool dates to the 20th ult., being four days later than the accounts brought by the Kuropa, •Liverpool Cotton Market—Cotton had ad vanced an eighth (Jd.) on all qualities. FairNew- Orlenns was quoted at eight and nn eighth, (8jd.) Tho sales of the three days previous to the sailing of the steamer, amounted to 18,000 bales. Havre Cotton Market.—At Havre Cotton had experienced nn ndvauce of one franc (if.) with ah active market. Accounts from the manufacturing districts repre sent business to be active, and the prices of goods advancing. SECOND DISPATCH. Nkw-York, Dec. 5,10 P. M. The private letters brought by the Arctic, are net so favorable as the published accounts. Political affairs in Germany, Austria and Prusia havo become more settled. New-York Cotton Market.—The demand to day unabated, and prices on eighth higher. Fine New-York OysTsfc. —We are indebted to the kindness of Mr. Robert Daly, of tho Alhambra, fora handsome present,of some of the finest oysters we have seen (eaten) this season. The compliment was “done up brown,”—the bivalve nicely opened, and accompanied with all the etectras. Mr. D. is in the regular receipt, by the Florida, of supplies of selected oysters from New-York, which he serves in good style at the Saloon, and 'turnishes to families at moderate rates. Arrival of Emigrants. — The British Barque Brothers. Capt. English, arrived yesterday from Wexford,Ireland, witli 125 emigrants. It is rarely that we see a mere respectable body of new comers from any portion of Europe, than those brought by the Brothers, and who we learn design settling in Savan nah. May they realize their brightest anticipations, of prosperity and happiness in their new home. Paine’s Light Flaring uR again.—Mr. Paino gave an exhibition of his gas light on Tuesday at Worcester, previous to sending an agent to London to introduce the gas at the Exhibition of the World’s Fair. Mr. Pedriek is more eanguine than ever. Tub Sugar Crop Tho following extract of a let ter from John Hall, Esq., a reliable merchant of Now Orleans, who has been making a tour of the su gar regions, gives a gloomy account of the crop: “Up to Sunday morning last all was going on well, and most planters appeared satisfied with their prospects, but on Sunday mid Monday mornings wo lytd a very severe frost, killing every stulkoicane standing, from Berwick’s Bay to ns far up the coun try as has been heard from, many of tho planters not having put up a stulk of seed, which wilfleave them without a crop next year; and the impression is that ouc-half the cane now standing, will Bpoil before it can he made up, which will undoubtedly be the case if the weather should turn warm and moist. The re ports frern the upper parishes ar,e worse and worse every day, very few had saved half their seed, and many, none at all, and cane already spoiling from the froBt two weeks ago. Should the winter be a se vere one. 1 doubt if there will be a cane rolled next yeariu the parishes of St. Landry, Rapides, or Avoy elles, and but very short crops in Pointe Coupee, tho Felicisnas or Baton Rouge, for want of seed andloss ofrattoons. Prices should bo good this season, und must be better the next.” J3 1 * A Clergyman of tho Church of England hss proposed, under the sanction of Prince Albert, to aware a prize or prizes, of one hundred guineas in value, lor tho best essay or essays on the following subject, to wit: “In what manner the union of all nations, at the grand exhibition in 1851, may be made to conduce mostly to the glory of God in promoting tho moral welfare of mankind.'’ We would answer—By entering into a great league of nations lor the suppression of royalty in ail its forms throughout the civilized world, and for assert ing, and maintaining the uncontrovertible right of self government. Wo dont expect to obtain the _ ■>* Farther Foreign Intelligence, \By steamer Europa.\ England.—Mr. D'Israeli has published a manifes to, accusing tile Whig6of countenancing in Ireland the pointy !fflt the part of Rome, which they now find it convenient to denounce in England. One of the new Catholic!bishops jn pastoral charge goes further than this, and states broadly that the new Hierarchy was arranged with the express sanction ot the gov ernment, and Cardinal Wiseman, who lias arrived in London, is also said to have declared tb t the whole scheme was submitted to b“ approved by the Cabinet some tune ago. The no popery cry never assumed, it is said, any approach to its pres> nt vehe mence, though the excitement appears confined al most exclusively to the middle classes. It is proposed to apply to Parliament, at the ap proaching session, to introduce clauses into the Liv erpool dock bjll with a view to tho addition of poor ratea-'^SSiinld the application ho successful, the American trade, which forms the great staple of the port, would most materially suffer. On the 14tb instant the Pope was burnt, in effigy onPeckham common, in the presence of 10.000 or 12,000 people, who marched Hither in procession, in which lighted torchs. tar barrels, theatrical tjres, chiefly blue, and images ot Romish prelates,Sunned the principal features. The incremation was per formed amid shouts of “no Popery:' 1 “hurrah for the Quaeo;” -‘no foreign priesthood;’’ t-down witii the Pope,” Ac. The np-popery ci-y has provoked an opposite cry in Irelaiid—fierce, personal and daring. A pastoral letter of the Roman Onthqlic bishop of Nothnmpton. explains what the Hierarchy really is;„nn< asserts that nothing has been done without the previous approba tion ojhtr Majesty's Government. Extraordinary Colliery Explosion.—Twenty-six men and boys were killed on Monday by nn explo sion q| fire-damp at the Houghton pit, Newbottle, Durham. One hundred men were at tyork at the time, nnd the survivors Were n'nt, readied until six Jiov.ts gfwr tho explosion. Brutal.—One of the most brutal and inhuman acts of which we ever heard, says tiie Calisle De mocrat, came to our knowledge a iew days since the particulars of which as related to us by a gen. tleman conversant with the facts, are briefly these: A laboring man, lately in the employ of the Mount Holly Iron Works, ill this county, lost a son, some 12 or 15 years of age, by death. The coffin being made according to the dimensions sent, was found, on placing therein the remains to bo entirely too small. Whereupon the inhuman father coolly took up the corpse, and carrying it to the wood pile, de. lihei atcly chopped off both the feel above the ankle, Such mi act of monstrosity, in a community like this, is enough to curdle our heart’s blood, an<f make us wonder to what manner of species we be' long. ... Tho Forest Case Again, A long scries of documents in regard to^tlie diffi culties between Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Forest, ap pears in the New York Herald. The* only new and imp ortant one is an affidavit of HE. Forest, filling over six columns. It sets out with denying the charges of adultery brougSt against him by Mrs. F. It then gives a full history of their difficulties, com mencing with the Cincinnati incident and the “Qon- suelo’’ letter. Mr. F. then speaks of Mrs. F. going to a party in January, 1849, at her sister's Mrs. Voor- HEEs, whom Jie describes as a woman of licentious companionship,- character and habits, and charges her with the grossest want of virtue. Some extracts from Mrs. V.'s letters to Mrs. F. are also given. The letters'ate written from tho house of N. P. Willis. ^Phe affidavit goes then into details about the “Con- ssft^lo” letter and the character of Mr. Jamieson, but gives nothing new. The Macbeady difficulty is also recited, but no new light thrown upon -the present controversy. Tile subsequent letters of Mr. and Mrs. Forest, which have already been published, are given again. The charge of incontinence with Wil lis is repeated, and we then come to the divorce bill in tho Pennsylvania Legislature of lust winter. Its defeat is charged upon Senators Walker, of Erie, and Brook, of Delaware. Tho former charges of impropriety, or worse, with Capt Calcraft, Richard Willis, 8. M. Raymond, Mr. Wikoff, and others, arc repeated, with no new particulars or facts. The various allegations of Mrs. F. against him are there severally denied. The nffi. davit concludes with charging Mrs. Forest with etil| leading a “reckless and prodigal” life, •-giving ex. pensive entertainments to persons of looao and de graded character,’’ &c. The document is a most deplorable and humiliating exposure of all purties. The Now-York Star, commenting upon the publi cation of those documents by Mr. Forest, says ; “The proceeding lboks like persecution—like a de sire to prejudice public sentiment. We have read the official documents, extracts from letters, in ferences, and arguments, presented i.y Mr. Forest, nnd we sny now, as we have "aid before, tliut they contain no proof of Mrs. Forest's guilt. That she has been imprudent is perhaps undeniable; but nei ther tlie letters of Mrs. Voorlieea upon which so much stress is laid, nor the famous ‘Coinuelo’ letter, necessarily or oven reasonably lead to the cooclu- tions at which Mr. Forest has arrived.” Whether guilty or innocent, Mrs. Forest has been unfortunate in two respects—first, in marrying For K-T, und then in having been forced to associate with his circle of acquaintances in the Northern ciths.— No lady’s name could escape blemish Dorn such contact, even if her principles suffered no detriment. Phaye a for tiie Fast Day Bishop Gadsden, 0 f Charleston, has directed the following prayer to bo used by the Episcopalians of :hat diocese in private, in family, and in the church, during the present ses. sion of tho Legislature of Soutii Carolina^ a prayer for all “that are in authority.” MostGracious God, we humbly beseech thee, as t- r the people of there United Slatnsin general, so especially lor the Governor, tiie Senate, and Repre sentatives, in Legislature assembled, of the Common wealth of -South Carolina, that thou wouldst be pleased to direct and prosper all their consultations and measures to the advancement ot thy Glory, the good of thy Church, the safety, honor, welfare of thy people; and that all things may be so ordered and settled by their endeavors, upon tiie best and surest inundations, that peace nnd happiness, till til and jus. tice, religion and piety, may be estnhliahsd among us for ail generations. These, and all other necessa ries lor them, tor us and thy whole Church, we hum bly beg in the name and mediation of Jesus Christ, our most blessed Lord und Saviour. Amen. The Fugitive Slave Iitwr-TUe Crtala. We desire to invite the attention of our renders of all parties,to the following extracts from the Wash ington correspondence of the Philadelphia Bulletin. We have before expressed our belief that the Fugi tive Slave Bill was fraught with important, conse quences to our political Union-—that, more than any other law ever passed by Congress, it wan calculated to bring the great sectional controversy to n direct issue, In which tho South would be forced cither to make a final surrender of her constitutional rights or vindicate them to the last extremity. ■ This opinion is based upon the conviction that tho law will not ho submitted to by tho North, and that • "-South can not permit a repeal, which would pi iur institu tions in greater jeopardy than they were in before its enactment. Tho repeal, or materi .1 modification of tho law would amount to a virtual abrogation of that clause in the constitution under which we claim pro tection in our rights of property. That such would be the effect of a modification of the law (its “unequivocal repeal” will hardly he effect ed) by which its object would he defeated, no intelli gent Southern man can doubt. That the North will enforce the law,or permit it to remain on the stntuto books in its present form.no one familiar with North, ern sentiment on the subject, or who lias obsorved the indications of the popular will in that quarter, can for a moment believe. The extracts below,from tiie letter of an intelligent writer, will throw some light on this view of the subject. It is evident to every mind, that at no preceding period of our history hus there arisen an emergency, so momentous in all its consequences, as the present. YVc have gone on step by step, through every trying ordeal, until we have approached tne lastin all'gov ernments—the issue that is to test its future duration- Compared with the present, I doubt whether there lins ever occurred an exigency which boro so fatally upon tho question of federal dissolution; and the country has not been free from convulsions which in a political fabric less firmly cemented, would have shaken it till it tottered to its foundation. Tiie aipect of the slavery question is not now what it was, three months sgo—nay, nor at any intermediate pe riod, since 1793. The fugitive slave bill has cmhold- dened the South, and infuriated factions in the North. Ithaa given to the subject a sterner sectional complex ion, nnd traced those lines of demarcation between the foe of human freedom and its advocate, which rarely, in occurrences of the kind for ages, have been effaced or obliterated except by blood. Prior to the passage of this bill, the animosities of parties resem bled the ruptures of chosen combatants, whose quar rels for a stake, disturbed but slightly the equanimity of society; and like the rural play ofquartrain, each really in doubt what constituted the stake. But the slave bill has given character to the question, and in cited parties to a positive position. It is no longer a doubtful contest, predicated upon empty theories, but a fixed, iudeliblereality from which the most skep tical cannot escape. And now. since it becomes a national issue in ear- nest, and not confined to the Southern Oligarchial on one hand, and thu Abolitionist on the oilier; but a measure involving the interests of the whole South on one side, and the bulk of the people Nor upon the other, how will it be met by Congress, in whom is vested the duty of repealing nr, affirming its own net nnd solving the problem upon which every pat riotic heart is intent ? I have said, that the law em boldens the South, and this will encourage it to ag gression, but I should hnvo said, that until the law was pas. rd, there had been nothing to unite it in any general movement, as will now be tho case in every attempt nt the reclamation of its property. “lie is thr;ee armed, that has quarrel just.” avers the poet; hut the dramatist might have added, “and he that hath his quarrel thrice armed, has the power to make it just.” YVo have thrice armed tile t’.aveholding States ; and every failure to reucem our pledge, em bodied in this slave, law, will mag.xfy the feeling of hostility against us. Hence we can progress no far ther, until tiie question of conservatism or disunion is settled*By the action of Congress this winter. Tho ffj^t query then, is —will the law be repealed ? I trust it may not, because our political salvation de pends upon its strict observance; BUT I BELIEVE THE FIAT HAS GONE FORTH, AND THE HAND- YVRITING UPON THE YVALL PRONOUNCES ITS DOOM. YVe must bo guided by reason nnd humani ty in these deductions. How many attempts at recla mation of slaves would the North endure, nothwitli- stnnding your Chinese Museum and Castle Carden meeting-, BEFORE SHE YVOULD ARISE IN THE MAJESTY OF HER MIGHT, AND >1URL THOSE FROM THEIR SEATS INTHE COUNCILS OF THE NATION WHO MAINTAINED AN ACT SO REPUG NANT TO EVERY EMOTION OF THE HUMAN HEART ? How long a period has been required for the proscribed Abditionst to leave his lurking place and come out and boldly procinim liis doctrines, not in scores, but in hundreds of thousands ? How long, therefore, would it be, with these stern truths staring us in the face, before A MAJORITY YVOULD BE SENT TO CONGRESS, LESS OBSERVANT OF THE CONSTITUTION, WHILE OBEYING THE HIGHER LAW OF GOD 1 It ispainlul to thapariut to admit what he may chent himself in denying ; but disguise connot last beyond the moment—eloquent conviction forces itself upon him at last. Again how often would the South overlook this repudiation of law, however monstrous its provis ions, before yielding lo the insidious rioguinsof the secessionist* I.cokntthebold avowal of eleven States ot the fifteen—look at! seven States already arming, in anticipation of the struggle, with South Carolina as usual in the lead. In 1832 biit two of this entire number passed rcsoliltlons declaring that there could arise an emergency rtilllciently potent to make them torget. their ancient bllegiance. Now we find, not- seven States taking a -iniiliar view of the subject, But seven actually girdirg on the armor of open resis tance, ami declaring l teir readiness to enter the field. Any violation of the slave law will induce the re maining nine or at least six of their numberi to unite witii their bretl ren; for then the contest would depend upon self-int irest, nnd that union desirable for tho accomplishment of their object. In fact, view the matter ns wemaj the enactment was unfortun ate ami unwise: and 1: ih brought us nearer to the cri sis of separation tliar any other event in our history. To return to tho mi h question, I do not think Con gress will tmequivoci !y repeul the set; hut it will make a demoustratio i to that end, with a conserva tive majority to def at the movement. Very well. THIS MAY DEC KITE THE SOUTH FOR THE PRESENT, BUT Till REPEAL NEVERTHELESS IS VIRTUAL, AM THE OPENING OF THE THIRTY SECOND CONGRESS YVJl.L BUT HER ALD A FULFILLME IT OF THE DECREE, Mean, while, though treason may be pot down, that cause is more difficult whici is thrice armed. 1 leave the subject with the si'gle remark that I REASON AGAINST MY YVISMC3 AND HOPES; BUT YVI1Y SEARCH FOR COICLUSION3 IN THE DARK, YVII1LE DAYLIGHT AND COMMON SENSE STREAM AltO I'NdTjS. There is much in vjliat the writer says to arrest theserious attention If our peoplo of ail parties.— The attempt to repeal tho Slave Bill will be made by the abolition fuction in Congress. Southern men will unanimously opp'lse repeal. Then will come tile conservative interposition, in the shape of a modified, ion, the effect of wliioi will be virtually to destroy the vitality of the tne sure, or make it perhaps more obnoxious to the Sout than would hethe repeal of the hill itself. 1 o“save tit: Union” again, Senators from tho frontier Slave Stal :s may be induced to vote for the amendment requi ing tile General Government to. indemnity the owiura of slaves which nro not given up, out of the nn onnl treasury—thus requiring the South indirectly ti pay for the manumission of her own slaves !
