This is substaminlly the same resolve which was! reseed in 1843, when Mr Morton was governnr--and They all refer back to the originul resolves of 1839. - The resolves of 1841 provide "that the governor; +with the advice of the council, be authorized to employ 'an agent in the ports of Charlesion,S C., and New I 'Orleans, Lou.. for a term of riffle not to exceed one year. for the purpr se of collecting and trun.mitting ac curate information respecting the number and names sof - citizens of Massachusetts who have heretofcre been, we may be, during the period of his imgargemeirt, itn -prisoned withorat the allegation of any crime.

The construction given by Gwiernor Morton and the council (which was then democratic) to these re latives, was, that they only authorized the selection of 1 6e agent i n th e ports of Charleston and New Oilcans.) 3t was obviate: that if no citizen - there widthd undvc take the service, owing to the state of public opinion, 1 Whi rmal embassy could nor he sent there from thisl state without endanTerinf, , the ft iendly t;rla timer he: tayerna the states, and .11 1, jecciug, this toe. in the event! - orther eipidnion of her ambassador, to an ii.dignity 'which it would not be in her primer to remedy, The governor and council acenidingly selected Jnn Mayhin,ofNew Orleans, and B F hunt, of Charles ton, distinguished lawyers, and they acre instructed towtake all the necessary inquiries, and advise the ex *eutive. Mr Maybin declined, trod in a respectful tom anOnication gave as u reason, that his duty as a citizen or:Louisiana would nut authorize him to accept. Ile olio geve the reasons of the lane complained of as fullowss-- • "Thu introduction of the people of color from the llVlrth has injured the interests of many of our citizens in the southern states. Regardless of our laws, they avail themselves of their situntion on board of vessels to secrete and carry off our slaves; they never return, so that our laws cannot reach them. Redress cannot be elsewhere obtained. These. laws. complained of by Mapsachusetts, are thus the "result of the circum stances of the case emitted by necessity, and with nu . diaposition to excite bitter and unkind feelings emcee our fellow citizens in the non-slaveholding states. But our leigislaturu are obligated by a solemn sense of duty to protect our citizens in their property. With these - views- you will perceive at once that I could not uti dertalte the trust tendered to me." • After Mr. Maybid's declining, William Gardner, 'Esq.. a maiden( in New Orleans, was appointed. He and Mr. Hunt also declined, elitist -intent to Governor Morten's retiring from office. Governor Briggs then "ea no in, and the whig legislature of 1844 passed the <follow* resolve, of March 16 "That his excellency the governitr. with the advice -of the council, be hereby authorized to employ an -agent for the port of Charleston and an agent fzr the pert of New Orleans. whose duty it shall be to reside iiu said ports not exceeding one year, for the purposes specified in the resolves of 1843, concerning imprison ment of citizens of Massachusetts in other states." This mightor might not mean that the agent should Ise sent there frims this state; and if it went to this • Senor' it entimly exceeded the meaning of the resolves i l of 1843, It follirws that not the administration of, 1843, as the Atlas represents, but of 1844, are respon sible for thed Acuity in which this state is now involved with South Carolina. • Governor Briggs and his council, constructed this Ttwolve of 184 1 into an authority to send an ambasati iloregent to reside in Charleston and New Orleans, but he did not communicate to the State of South 'Carolina that he had sent such embassy. Mr Hoar, wit his arrival to Charleston, informed the Governor of' South Carolina of his purpose, but presented no cre dentials and no communication from the governor of this atete. After all that had previously transpired, it was ob wipes that this wss n matter of great excitability at the tenth. If the object had been merely that of an in emirrinto existing cases of unjust detention of our colored citizens, With a view to take legal steps to their release, it was a private agency. with which the State of South Carolina had no concern, and should 'have been pursued es an attorney would pursue the *ante of a client. in this view Mr Hoar should. not 411 , 111,1 tormnlly communicated his residence, 81 an agent of Missachusetts, to the envernoi of South Carolina. 'if Governor Briggs viewe d it as an embassy from one • sovereign state to another, he should have taken the -proper steps to ac.redit his agent. Su far as the di plomacy is concerned, it has certainly been rather in formal no the part of the governor and council. The, 'result df Mr Htrar's cummunication was a testy order of the Legislature of Smith Ctirolirsa fur his expulsion:, end our ambassador has been driven with indignity oat of the territory; and the question now arises, what must Massachusetts do to vilidiente her insulted honor?

We learn there will be several candidates for this important Nat, and umengst them, Wtt.t.iast JACK, Esq., the late Clerk. Mr. Jack is originally from this county, and is a practical, industriou s and prompt business man.' He has discharged the dut'es of the office while he held it with ability and attention, and has given general satisfitetion. He is the only West morelander who has ever held that post, and we hope the members of the next House will not dismiss one who has just claims, and who bas proved himself corr petent. to make way fur others whose ahilities and claims are perhaps not so well tested. We may remark that for some few years previous to Mr Jack's appointment, the incidental expenses of tho House ranged from fifteen to twenty•seyen thous. and dollars per annum, while during the past year dining Mr Jack's Clerkship, !bey have not exceeded sic thousand dollars. This is certainly evidence ofan honest end economical management of affairs, and of a due regard fur the interests of the people. We hope this economical spirit will bo carried into all the de partments of government. Mr Jack's re-election would be highly gratifying to his numerous friend s in this section, and w e hope to see their wishes in this respectrespectggratified.i GROSS OUTRAGE.
