ty DEAR SIM" , * " I lia;3 had
/ a n d
task here, but nullification is dead;
/and its actors and courtiers will only lib re
membered by the people to be execrated for
their wicked designs to sever and destroy tile
only good government on the globe, and that
prosperity and happiness we enjoy over every
other portion of the world. Ilamiin's gallows
ought to be the fate of all such ambition's men,
who would involve their country in civil war,
and all the evils in its train, that they might
reign and ride 'on its whirlwinds and direct,
the storm. Tho free people of these United
'States have spoken, and consigned these wick
ed demagogues 'to their proper doom. Take
care of your nullifiers; you hays them among
you; let them meet with the indignant frowns
of every man who loves his country. The
tariff, it is now" .
and he italicizes or underscores tlio word
"mow"—
"known, was a mere pretext i• its burden was
on 'your coarse woollens. By the law of July,
1882, coarse woollen was reduced to five per
per cent s for' the benefit: of the South. Mr.
Clay's bill takes it up and classes it with
woollens at fifty per cent.,reduces it gradual
ly down to twenty per cent:, and there it is to
•remain, and-Mr. Calhoun and ell the nullifiers
- agree to the principle The cash duties and
home valuation will be equal to fifteen per
~cent. more, and after the year 1842 you pay
'on coarse woollens thirty-five per cant. If
this is no( protection, I cannot understand :
therefore the tariff was only the pretext; and
',disunion and a Southern Confederacy the real
objeot. The-next pretext will be the negro
slavery question.

specific and effectual guaranties of their Per

TIIE UrviION'IIIEETING
It ig obvious to every one, that the'stability
of the Union never was in'such danger as the
present; what the cause is, or where the fault.
is.of no consewietteo nowt the imminence
-of the-danger,--Jmecludes an examination- of
the causes which have proAuced it, and should
lead'us at mice, to see 1i ow the conflicting in,
Wrests of a country., diversified as ours. can
be harmonized. To aid iti\effecting on object
so important, the,
_citiZCIIS of Carlhde,
without' respect to political principles; have
joined in a call for a-pubbc meeting, on Sat
urday evening next, and it is due to the Union,
and to the patriotic motives of the gentlemen
who have moved in this matter, that the meet
ing should be general, and that the proceed
ings he calm, dignified and harmonious. . It
is useless to say that our devotion to the Union
is not. to be questioned, and therefore such a -
meeting is unnecessary. The fact is patent
to every one, that the integrity of the National
compact is openly threatened by sonic of the
Southern States; that the Union nice there,
are contending against fearful odds, and it is
our duty to 'strengthen their hands in the good
work. '
The Constitution was adopted by mutual
compromises and concessions, and the Union,
based upon it, can only ho perpetuated by a
.striet and willing observance of its require
ments; We claim to have an enduring love
for the Union, recognizing and, sustaining all
the rights guaranteed to our sister States.
We degy the wish or intention, expressed or
implied, to injure the people of any section,
in their political or social relations, or inter
fere with them in. the full and free enjoyment
gt.tf their property ; and if a reaffirmation of
lids will restore confidence to our brethren of
the South, it involves no sacrifice of principle
to do so.' Let the people of the North there
fore, send cheering messages of encourage
ment to the P'atriots of the South... Let us in
culcate a feeling of mutual forbearance %and
conciliation, and if the result shall he a set
tlement Of our difficulties, on terms honorable
to both sections, and the Union preserved, the'
last obstacle will be removed to a successful
and prosperous administration of the Govern
ment, under Lincoln.
SOUTH CAROLINA CON VENTION
L Afiar- cherishing treasonable purposes for
Ctirty years, South Carolina has at length
met. in Stale Concention, to declare itself out
of the Union. ,The Convention met at Colum
bia, on Monday lost, and organized perman
ently by electing Gen. D. F. Jamison as Pre
sident.
In consequencO of the prevalence of the
small pox at Columbia, a resolution was of
fered that the Convention adjouriMeharles
ton, which gave rise to considernle debate,
and was finally agreed to by a largo majority.
Mr. Elmore . , Commissioner front Alabama, and
Mr. !looker, Commissioner from Mississippi,
And Howell Cobh, of Georgia, were admitted
di seals on the floor of the Convention, and
;were received with much applause.
Mr. Elmore, of Alabama, filo addressed
is Convention, and was forawed 14.5 , Mr.
Hooker, of IHississjppi. Both speeches were
moderate, the speakers stating that they acted
by the authority of the Governors of their re
spective States, in accordance whit the desires
of a majority of the people.
A Committee was appointed to draft an or•
dinance suitable. to be adopted by•this Con•
ventron; in order to accomplish tho'•purpose:
=I
Mr. Bheit moved to amend by inserting
other matters for the consideration of the
committee which may be presented to them.
" Mr. BarnwelThe committee will have the
right to, report on the whole subject. Every
thing should first be summitted to the com
mittee.
Mr. Inglis—The object will be accomplished
without the amendment.
Rhott—That committee can originate
anything with itself; for instance, an address
that comes from any ono 0f.,1,144 body, will
have a fair consideration.
Cbeeves—Tbo great aim and object is
to avoid every side of the question in which
there may be a division. We luVe proof this
evening that the - re is but a single voice within
the State Of South Carolina. The business of
the Convention will be expedited by confining
it to secession. Our first aim is to break the
chain of this Union. The mid point will be
to study the direction..

15,00 'additional copies of thk President's

Falhlrying ll'blur)
A late number of the New York—Trilmy
contains the following:
"History records with what extreme reluc
tance South Confine. and Gebrgin originally
assented to the constitutional prov6ion where•
by Congress was empowered to prohibit the
foru,ign slave trade. In order to obtain their
acquiCSCNICO. it Was found necessary to post•
pone the prohibition for twenty years, in spite
of the wishes and convictions of the other
thirteen States."
History records no such thing. A reference'
to the debates in the Convention which formed
the Constitution of the United States, dill
show, that the opposition to the repeal of the
slave trade, came from the New England
States. Georgia, South Carolina and Virgin
ia, were in favor of its immediate repeal; but,
the New England States satd r ‘' not yet."—
Their great busintatstiten, was the manufao
lure of ruin. This ruM was taken to the coast
of Africa and exchanged for slaves which
were landed on our Southern shoi:es, and sold
to the planter:, and those States contended
that the act of repeal should not be enforced
for twenty years, so as to give them time hi'
divert their trade into otherdtathii;ls The

A NAME FOE von NEW REPIIIII.IO.—A cor
respondent writing to the Columbia South

name of the new Republic "Co1(1'11'111in Repub
lie," and 'says: " (live us the true Columbus
and the Yankees may have the .falso Americus
Vespucius." The Louisville Journal says that
if the "" up country" writer wants the true
mime, lie must remember that Chrialoval Co
lon discovered AMerica, anti so the "Colon
Republic" would be proper.' It would also be
judicious, for should the new Republic, in the
process of time, divide, one fraction might be
called the "Colon" and the other the "Semi

CalltiSTMAS:—Let us not be cast do*n,
by trifles. Cheerfulness is worth all the t»ed•

sit at home, with a face half a yard long; try

SKATINJ.—TLe most fashionabld out•
door amusement now, for JadieS, tp well as
gentlemen, is that of skating; in the Way of
exercise; it is exhilerating and graceful; but,•
unfortunately for us, the Creek is too far off
to be always accessible, except for boys, and
besides, is dangerous It has been suggested
that arrangements might belnade to have
lbw plot of ground, somewhere in the borough,
overflowed from the hydrants, which, when
frozen, would afford every facility for skating,
and when the ice is cut up, an inch wore of
water let on, would, in a night, present a new
surface..
Our girls arc kept too much like hot-house
plants, and consequently have about as much
color, as the stalk of a potato, grown in a cel
lar. A few days' amusement on the ice, iu
the cool bracing air, would do more for their
complexions, than all the cosmetics in the
world.

• 'Milt us. we think, In promising our 'readers a totally
wiper for Hifi year 1801 which will be more interesting
and instructive, and In every respect' more valuable,
than even the LEDGER hoe been in the post.
As an indication of the popularity of , the LEDGER
we need only state the simple fact that its circulation
is larger thou that of any OIDIW TEN litmary tillers In
the country. its great success is owing to the fact that
We secure this,liest writers In the country, and snare 110
ox bane in getting up the best FAMILY PAPEn—n paper
of high moral' tone. The exalted reputation of its con
tributors, the prdetical and Invariably pure :Old heal
thy character of all its articles, the core which is taken
that not oven ono OIIOIIEIYO wmd shall appear In its
colunins, and the superiority of Its Take and Sketches,
;have gained for the NEW. YORK 1.10/G ER a position
that no literary paper has ever before reached.
