From the Charltrlnn Mercury.
The Southern men of Ihe present genera- >
lion if imp to themselves —to patriotism and
to their posterity, will attend to the subjoin- 1
ed strong appeal, and act upon it promptly.
It exhort a them to assume their moral armour '
nt a crisis when the warning signs ofn deadly v
assault upon the very existence of the South- a
ern States, thicken in every point of the hor- '
jzon j when indeed the war has already coin- -'
induced, and when so far ns the periodical 1
press is concerned, allies of our worst cue- 1
lilies, are to a great degree sustained hy the 1
suicidal blindness or the traitorous weakness 1
of the Southern men. '
That the Southern Review as revived, will 1
to a great extent take the place among our f
Litertfy classes of works, whether American '
or Foreign, of a hostile or at host a suspi
ciously neutral character, we have reason to
believe,must result from tho attractions w hich >
the taste and ability of its Editor will secure ‘
for it; and that it will be a frank and hold 1
exponent of Southern sentiment, and a strong 1
defender of our rights, none who know the 1
character of Judge Upsiicu can doubt for a
moment. Those who have not known that
distinguished Virginian, arc assured that the
■writer who vouches for him in the following
■communication, is, as a statesman, a citizen,
and a patriot, one whose name h.is command
ed and will always command the highest con
fidence of South Carolinians.

attentive observer of the course of events, and
who has never hern indifferent to what con.
cents your intcrcts, or safety, would call your
attention to the Prospectus to revive the
Southern Review hy Judge Upsur of Virgin
it. Tho great and leading object of the
work as set forth in the Prospectus, is the
defence of the peculiar institutions of the
slavcholding Stales. That they are in dan
ger it would be folly to disguise. A parly
lias risen w ithin the ether States, in the last
three years, whose object, regardless of all
constitutional and social obligations, is the
overthrow of the relation of Master and Slave
which ha* existed from tho first settlement
■of the slave-holding Stales, between the Eu
ropean snd African races, and which has hloii.
ded itself with all our institutions political
and social.—This paity is regularly organi
sed, and has hundreds of societies extending
over the whole of the non-slave-holding States
with an annual income of thousands, putting
in motion a powerful and widely extended
.press, And rending forth a numerous hurt of
emmisaario* to preach and spread their hos.
tile doctrines in every direction, To give
greater cflect to what they nay, or do, they
iivow their determination to throw their po
littcal weight on the side of tho party in those
-Elates, who shall ho most favorable to them,
and have already become so powerful in some
•o. them, that tlioirsupport is courted by both
the political parlies, ihnl divide tho North. 1
As numerous as they already ore, they arc
still increasing and will continue to increase
from present appearances, till the object they
have in view is consummated, unless some
■efficient measure bo adopted to arrest their
■further progress.
To those, who have red ’clod on the pecu
liar COlldilfon of the slave-holding ,States, it
would he on idle waste of lime to undertake to
show, that tho accomplishment of the object
of the parly would he our d direction, as a
.people. The separation of tho two races,
were it even desirable, is impossible. Tins
the abolitionists themselves acknowledge. It
is equally impossible, that they should exist
together under any other relation, than tho (
tcxisimg one under which, both have grown
, tip and prospered. Its subversion would bo 1
the destruction of one. oriiotb. He who dees ]
•not see tins is profoundly ignorant of our con
dition. The present relation then between
She two races must be preserved ;>• nil events
tcosl what it will. In its preservation 'mr all
is involved; property, liberty, life, and char
actor.
Among the first ami most efficient mefUttr
ica tor ibis purpose is the one, io winch yum -1
attention is now invited. The war, which is
waged against ns, is one of opinion. The
.assault is mainly through thc'presft, & through
(the same medium it must ho met ami repelled
Our assailant* hope to over throw the exist
ing relation between the two races in the
slave-holding Stales hy denunciation. They
hold it up, as immoral, sinful am! opposed to
the rights of m in. Wo must meet and lepol
their attacks, and expose their errors, fana
ticism and hypocrisy. For this purpose, a
well conducted Review is the most powerful
instrument, that can bo conceived. Such
a one we now fortunately have the opportuni
ty of establishing, under the editorship ofn
citizen, who justly ranks among the most tal
ented and competent m the Union, and who, in
proposing to undertake this great charge, is'ac
tmilcd hy the highest and noblest feelings of
jiatroliiiiu. The work will be one ufgruat la
bor ami expense, and will require, according
to the prospectus, at least 31100 subscribers to
jusiily the undertaking.—To give it full of.
feet, at least twice that number ought to be
obtained. Thu most talented of tho country
and tho age must bo enlisted, as contributors,
which conuol be done with less than 5000 or
6000 subscribers. A work, such as it should
bo, requires tho co-operation of a great varic- ,
ty of talents of the highest order, and wo .
ought not to stop short ol placing it in the
front rank of the periodicals of the day, belli «
for the extent and excellence of its matter, so ;
as to ensure it a general circulation nt home 1
ami abroad. To died this, all that is want- t
ing is sufficient patronage, and that some clli
cieat plan may bo adopted to obtain patron
age, is tho object ot calling your attention to 1
the sulijcctat this time. t
If you would permit mo to suggest a plan i
1 would recommend that every editor in the L
slave-holding Stales without distiiic ion of
parly (for it equally concerns us all) shall 1
give a standing place in the columns ofiiis *
paper to Judge Upshur’s prospectus, ami 1
shall open a subscription in his office for tho „
work and shall from tune to lime call the at
tention of the public to the importance of ex
tending an official patronage to it. *
I would in the next place suggest that a >
subscription be opened in the Clerk’s office in <
every county throughout the slave-holding ,
States, and one be placed in the bauds of every
Sheriff' willing to lake charge of it. It there 1
be no printed subscription, one in manuscript !
can easily bo prepared. Tlio subscription i
is $5 annually. To carry this suggestion (
into effect will require some one individual in
each county to" step forward mid take charge (
of its execution; and surely there is not a '
county .where there is not some public '
spirited individual, who feels a sufficient in- 1
tcre.-t in the defence ot our institutions to <
assume tho discharge of so light a duty for j
so important an object.
I would nex't suggest that}the anniversary
■of our independence and other public occa- 1
eions be embraced to recommend the work to *
the patronage of the public and to obtain li
subscriptions. c
And finally, I would suggest, the impor- 3
tance of returning all the subscriptions to
Wm. VV. Moore &• Co. (the printers) at "
Washington, by tho Ist of October next, in 11
order that it may bo ascertained, as soon as c '
possible, if the requisite number of subscribers b
has been obtained, taking care to pay the pos- u
tage and to keep a copy to supply the origin
•l list, should it miscarry or be tost.
Citizens of the slave-holding States, it is
lime to arouse from your slumber, Vou arc 11
assailed in tho most vulnerable point. Vour a
existence, as a people; depends upon main- S
laiuin* the supremacy oft he European over ,|
the African race. You have reached the cri
«is of your fate, if your institutions assailed '
■ *
with such violence end industry, arc ever to
he defended, no time is to be lost. Delay in
all cases dangerous, would bo fatal in this.
Deceive not yourselves. The blow is at your
life, prosperity, mid character, and if you
should nut repel it, disasters, greater Ilian
ever before betel a people, bnrbarpn* or civili
zed, await you. The immediate object of the
abolitionists is to divest you of your property |
which cannot be effected without imolviug
your safely and existence, while the means
by which it is attempted, would blast your
reputation and character. The attempt is to
degrade yoa in your own estimation, and ren
dcryou odious and hateful in tho eyes of the
world, and if by such means they should ef
fect their object, it at once would sweep away
our prosperity, lives and character, leaving
nothing behind, beta name to be execrated
forever.
Such is the catastrophe against which yon
are now called on to prepare ; great as is the
danger the means of resistance is still greater
if called forth in lime and with vigor, to the
magnitude of the crisis. Our cause is good,
a circumstance of the highest importance in a
war of opinion. Inevciy view, religous, mor
al and political, it can he fully and triumphant,
ly vindicated, and that whcUicrjbrought to the
test ofexperience, or abstract principles. Its
defence will be tho great duty ot the Review,
which, under the guidance oi its able, enligh
tened and patriotic editor, no doubt would lie
ably and successfully performed ; all that is
wanted is a support ami patronage proportion
ed to the magnitude oftheobjee', ami this de
pends on yourselves, who have so much at
slake. Withhold them not, on account ol the
hardness of the times. The pressure is in
deed, great and ninny may be prostrated,
whore indusliy end enterprise deserved a be',
ter fate, yet with all its ills, it must, from its
nature, prove temporary, ilottcr limes will
again return, wh.n our lossea may ha repai (,
and ’present distress be forgotten in renewed
prosperity. Nut so tho danger to which I
would direct your attention. From that blow
there could bn no recovery. Eternal desolation
would follow in its train. In the tttidsl of your
present great, hut temporary difficulties, close
not your eyes against the greater approach
ing danger. The opportunity, which you
now have of taking an efficient step to vindi
cate your institutions, may not again bo pre
sented, or if presented, may ho too late. It
is not every (lay one sowcll qualified, every
way to undertake such a task, can he found.
Let this State set the example of a l.ihcrnl
subscription to the other slave holding Sla’ea.
Wo ought, with proper exertions, to furnish
one lialf olTho number required to commence
the work. Such an example would not fail to
have a happy effect on the oilier States, ami
secure a patronage, which would place the
work on the most solid basis. Let nn one
then who can possibly spare $5, withhold his
name from tho subscription list. It will re
turn tenfold in the pleasure and intelligence
it. Will give, independent nfall political consid
erations. Among its other advantages, the
work would be tho commencement of South

safety ami reputation us a people.

FOR UOVEIUSOK.
RKOilUi: 11. (sILTIIjR.
Wo call the attention of our citizens to tho or
dinance of tho Common Council of tho city,
which has been for some lime published in our
paper, on the subject of keeping their lots clean
and in good condition, to prevent sickness. It
would bo well for those who have lots requiring
their attention, to look to it, as we understand the
Council intend to enforce it rigorously.
The Alexandria Cazotle, of a date some weeks
nasi, a paper of groat impartiality in politics, thus
'at,ms up the causes of tho present distress—
“ The removal ol the Deposilcs—the war upon
the Jltti’U of the U. S. the destruction of that
Punk jho unregulated condition of tho currency
consequent i.Hreon—the springing up of hun
dreds of now ha’>k» all over the country —the
vast issue ot paper .Honey—the speculations in
tiro public lands follows.***!—Jlw B re »‘ overtrading
and unusual money fucii ' l * oß their, the spuria
cir cular—doing some good—"hut a great deal ol
harm—and every way wrong, because it was
unequal and illegal,—hero wo h.’* v p the train
which has, at last, been fired, and bK'wn, ,““ky
high, 1 ’ the commercial credit anu prosperity ol
the U, S, —The intelligent reader W'fi
this train, the failure ofllio wheat crop . r>r two
years, and tho necessary introduction of la.’s°
quantities of foreign grain, and other matters,
which will readily present themselves to a busi
ness man, when he reflects seriously on rho
events which have preceded tho present catas
trophe.”
To this catalogue, the Gazette with great pro
priety, might add one or two other powcrlul
causes. Tho passage of the law by Congress
altering tho value of American Gold coin,by
which it became an object with speculators to
purchase Gold in Europe, to soil again in this
country nt a premium,—also the course adopted
by our Government in importing nothing hut
gold t.i payment of our claims upon Franco, Na
ples &c., hy which two processes an unusually
large quantity of the precious metals wore drawn
from Europe, leaving too great a scarcity there
for circulation and commercial and Ranking
transactions—So soon as this scarcity began to ho
felt, added to a knowledge that tho Cotton crop
of last year would boa largo one, it produced a
decline in that article in Europe-—a correspond
ing decline here, of course succeeded it—the de
cline hero prostrated all those who had embarked
largely itt tho business,drawing along with them
a largo portion of the mercantile world, and at
lire same lime crippling the Ranks of all tho
commercial cities. Add la this, tho position oc
cupied by Gen. Jackson towards Franco a year
or two ago, which induced lire belief that we wore
upon the eve of a war with that Government. In
consequence of Ibis, extraordinary quantities of
French goods were imported into this country
under the belief lira, the scarcity of them pro
duced by s war, would enhance their value.—
Rut the storm blew over—the goods were pur
chased to an amount beyond (ho wants of tho
country and beyond the means of the purchasers
to pay for—another one of the glorious conse
quences of General Jaskson’s heedless and head
long policy.
Tho imports into this country last year amount
ed to lUO millions—lire exports to 140 millions
loavtng a balance or debt against us of 60 mil
lions. Os tire imports, 00 millions were in spe
cie. Now if, instead of importing s;>ect«, (his
00 millions had been appropriated to payments for
merchandize, we should have been in debt hut 50
millions ; an amount, which would have produ
ced hut little if any pressure. Rut the specie has
been imported and been made (he basis' for the
establishment of multitudes of new Ranks—in
order to sustsin these banks, it must he kept in
tiro country—to keep it itt the country, the banks
have been compelled to suspend specie payment,, (
and this is the statue quo of affairs at present.— ,
So sootr as the Ranks commence specie payments
those in the commercial cities indebted to Eu
rope will commence drawing it for exportation— |,
and the merchants in the interior will drain tbs 1
country Ranks to pay their debts in the cities, j
This is the natural course, unless in the mean
time confidence and credit arc restored until the
resources of the country are capable of retrieving
it from its embarrassments.
It is said by some that those who arc in debt
to Europe ought to he allowed to break and let
the loss fall upon Europe. The goods pureba
sod in Europe, have been sold in this country liy
the importers to the jobbers —hy them to the coun
try merchants and hy thorn to the people. —
It is thus to a considerable extent, a debt
of the country, although individuals only, may
owe it directly to individuals in Europe. Many
of those individuals will no doubt break and a
loss accrue to Europe, hut tho largest portron of
them arc able to pay their debts, when those to
whom they have sold their goods, shall pay lor
them. The American merchants are generally
an honorable and high-minded class, and will
pay their debts—The’suspension of specie pay
ments is o:dy an extension of credit —a postpone
ment of pay-day, to which, the debtor taking lire
law into his own hands, compels the creditor to
submit. Rut we have almost involuntarily ex
tended these remarks, far beyond what we in
tended.
By the following correspondence it will \<c
seen that Mr. Gilmer accepts the nomination of
tiro .Stale Rights Convention, as a candidate for
Governor.

At a largo and respectable meeting of the cit
izens ot this place, held this day at the Council
Room, Robert Anderson, Esq. was called to the
Chair, and M. M. Gray, Esq. appointed Secreta
ry ; whereupon tho following resolutions were
unanimously adopted, and recommended to the
Rank of Hamburg.
Resolved 1 si,. That this meeting do acknow
ledge the propriety of the suspension of specie
payment by the Rank of Hamburg, arid that any
other course would have been contrary to its vi
tal interest, as this course had been adopted by
the Ranks of this Stale previous to that of the
Rank of Hamburg.
Resolved 2r/., That this meeting have full and
implicit confidence in tho solvency and prudent
management of this Institution.
Resolved 3</., That this meeting would in tho
present deranged state of affairs, consider it ex
tremely imprudent in tiro Rank to pay out any
more specie than may ho actually necessary for
the accommodation of persons for change.
Resolved 4</t., That the suspension of specie
payment hy tho Rank of Hamburg is only tempo
rary, and they will again resumo the redemption
of their Bills by tho payment ol specie so soon
os tho other banks of this State shall do so; also
that it is the sense of this meeting that tho issues

AFFECTING INCIDENT.
A young man in France lately had the i
capricious fancy to determine on tlie destina
tion of his dug by drowning, on account o( |
some slight fault,.’ By the assistance of a
boat ho threw the animal into the middle of
the Seine, and with an oar he prevented him
from regaining the side. Whilst thus cruelly
occupied ho lost his equilibrium, fell into the
river, and would have assuredly perished but
for the assistance of the faithful dog, which he
had attempted to drown. The dog seized
him by the collar, and sustained him above
water, until assistance was rendered from the
shore.
A Boston editor, a cunning chap, in speak
ing of tho announcement ol a brother editor
in Providence, that fresh salmon, the first of
the season, had been sold in that market the
day before, shrewdly says, “We know a trick
worth two of that. We never announce the
first salmon, but go quietly to work and eat
it. Tho second, ditto —ditto, the third.—
. When the fourth comes, wo relinquish the
. monopoly, and formally announce ‘ikcjirsl
■ of ike season.”' We like this editor’s dark.
• non-committal course. “A still sow gets all
I he swill.”
. The versatility of lawyers is most 'extraordina
, ry. They can turn their hands, it seems by their
own Ootrfewvn, to almost any kind of business.
Tho following is from a communication in the
. Pennsylvania Sentinel:
I heard one, the other day, in his speech to the
jury, say. “Me arc shopkeepers, gentlemen, and
we sold tho defendants tho ham and eggs, and
they promised to pay for them.” His opponent
replied, “ Ife, gentlemen of the jury, arc no more
than journeymen in an oyster cellar, and we
bought the articles for our principal, and this ac
tion does not properly lie against us.’’* This is a
laudable instance of industry. The example
should he recommended to all who complain of
these hard times.
Absence of mind. —A gentleman just
from the West informs us of an instance of
this Aim! where a Yankee speculator, while
engaged in speculation fell to whilling his
fingers instead of a stick and did not discover
the mistake till he had whittled off his two
first fingers and sharpened the third t® a
point. —Detroit Spectator.

[FOURTH DAT.]
Philadelphia, Friday night, May 20, 1837.
“Tho agony is over,” and Lady Clifdcn’s star
is still in tho ascendant. She has triumped over
i “the mightiest of the mighty,” distanced Mingo,
, tho conqueror of many u field, three limes over,
i It was a haid fought contest, and the victory
i yielded only to the superior strength and speed
of the Maryland blood.
The course and stands were crowded to excess,
and the excitement among all parties equal to
time which preceded the race between Bascombe
& Post Doy. Tho weather and roads were ve
, ry unfavorable or the number of spectators would
1 have been doubled. Tho following is the re

Time. 9.05—9.07—9.17. Track knee deep.
Tholst heat was beautifully contested by Mingo,
Decatur tuning merely to save his distance. The
little filly stumbled two or three times, so deep
and stiff was tho mud on the back side of the
’ track, and lost much ground in consequence, and
1 Mingo would give her (he tgo-hy,’ but whenever
J, John, her jockey, touched her with the spur she
' would rush up and pass. This I think occurred
three times. When she came down tho quarter
1 stretch ahead and passed the stand, the winner of
1 tho heat, the shouts were deafening.
The second heat was won by Decatur, after a
severe struggle width Lady Clifdcn,Hiy a few Jen
' glhs—Mingo gave out after the third utile, and
1 was stopped.
1 The third heal Lady Clifdcn took the lead, and
' despite every effort of Decatur, kept it ho whole
! four miles, coming in at her ease two lengths
1 ahead.!—The style in which she won this heat
was beautiful, and confirmed tho opinion express

she lias no equal now in the United Slates.

tho tegular business channels between this coun
try and Europe. For the last twenty years, the
correspondence and confidence of the merchants
have been such, that shipments of cotton could
he t'tado to England or Franco with entire safety,
and the proceeds are anticipated or realized, with
out tho slightest difficulty. Now confidence has
be.-omo so shaken, that shippers dare not ship,
aid if they did drafts would not sell In this di
lemma, a new and novel course of business has
t«kea place. Now, shippers desirous of sending
cotton, are compelled, if they require an advance
to send their cotton under the direction of the
IT. S. Baule —that is, if the cotton sent to hou
ses in Liverpool and the proceeds remitted to the
friends of the Bank in London, then the Bank
will advance a fair portion of the amount of the
value of tho cotton. By a bill on England, this
coutso of trade has one very important advantage
and that is security. The houses on the other
side are beyond question good and the drafts of
the Bank of course safe. The Bank, as well as
individuals, arc drawn to this course by the pros
tration of credit. Formerly bills were taken
most freely and in the general credit that prevail
ed, were good. Now, the Banks to insure the sol
vency of the hills, are compelled in self defence i
to lake the course they have. Thus it ap
pears that the United Slates Bank has a greater
control of the business of tho country than she j
ever has had hafore, and that wealth is monopliz
ing not only the financial but the business trans- 1 I
I actions of every branch of tljp community,
The Custom-house is in-somo trouble from the i
technicalities of law. If the bonds are sued, and
judgements had ’and the personsoflheparltcs are
taken, all personal properly is in fact free. Xhe
position of the Government, by exacting specie,
will be decidedly worse.
A new era prevails relative to pilots. Formcr
ly the system might he termed close corporations,
or monopolies, and the public were so oppressed
that they hardly expected ever to he relieved, a
change, however, has come at last. The law of
the United States has effectually broken up the
whole systsm. The Jersey pilots have common- _
ced, and the commissioners have licensed about ,
twenty more, thus adding forty to the number;
besides which the old pilots have dissolved their
association, and they ore all running in oppost-
lion to each other; the consequence is, that vessels
arc boarded often times cut sight of land. So
far tho breaking up of the system has had the hap- i
picst effects. I

-ILF SUPPORTER is off red to those afflicted with,
Prolapsus Uteri , and other diseases depending upon
relaxation of tho abdominal muscles, ns an instru
ment in every way calculated for relief and perma
nent restoration to health. When this instrument is
carefully and properly fitted to the form ot the pa
tient it invariably affords the most immediate immu
nity from the distressing “dragging and bearing
down” sensations which accompany nearly all ca
ses of Visceral displacements of the abdome i, and
its skilful application is always followed by nil ear
ly confession of radical relief from the patient her
self. The Supporter is of simple construction and
can bcappliod by tho patient without further aid.
Within tlio last two years 700 of the Utero Abdomi
nal Supporters have been applied with the hap
py results.
The very great success which this Instrurne it lias
met warrants the assertion, that its exaniinat on by
tho Physician will induce him to discard il o dis
gusting pessary hitherto in use. Ills gratifj mg to
state, that it has met the decided approbation of eve
ry member of the Medical Faculty who has i .pplied
it, ns well as every patient who has worn it.

We timed it and fiml that with new moulds and in- A s
