The above extremely modest epistle wc find in
the shape of a printed ciicular upon our table hav
ing come during our absence List week.
As there arc two or three errors under which the
writer labors as to our position toward himself or
Ins magazine we pioposc to enlighten him and liy
to doing sate him the trouble of auj future mis-
bircs to us.
He has not received our paper noticing his Janu-
ary number because we never received that num-
ber nor several preceding numbers consequently
did nol notice them. He does not exchange with
us oratanj rale vie do not with him and there-
fore he can save himself any unnecessary pam
nbout pruning our paper from his list. Wo have
not inserted his prospectus never did never ex-
pect to unless he should propose to piy us for Hi
in something more substantial thru lady-literature.
Somo time last year wc think it was we found
in the po-l office a copy of the " Lady's Hook '
directed to the Standard wlmh was followed at
monthly periods by other numbers. Supposing
that it w as sent to us to elicit an cditornl notice
wc gave it. That number contained some excel-
lent engravings as most of them do and was neat-
ly printed as all of them are. It as also the suc-
ceeding numbers contaned .laks of Lidy's fash-
ions which arc useful to our female readers. We
gave to that number as wc have to the uccccdmg
ones just smcIi a notice as we thought due to it
and as riucsltd sent a copy of our notice to the
Lady's Dollar Newspipcr. At that time thcllouk
had few suliscribers here since then its list has in-
creased largely judging from the piles of there
which we see ieic at the Post (Mice. Hut if
Mr. Godey will n member we entered into no ar-
rangement oursclf to procure him subscribers as he
proposed nor have we ever solicited or endeavored
to procure copies ol the work. The notices we
made of it were but a decent reciprocation if his
intended courtesy in sending it. rnd for the benefit
of the ladies who of course take an interest m all
matters pertaining exclusively to themselves ll
Mr. Godey has observed wc lnvc never yet read
his hook a glance at the plates uluch are usuallv
good and a run over the contents glincing at a
paragraph here and there have been the extent ot
our own use for the wink and wc had not evtn
this uc for it had it not been placed before us; not
that wc undervalue m?gazine literature ; but that
we choose to selcci the best of it and procure it m
our ow n w ay w h:ch is by pny mjr for it. We w ould
not fill our columns wiih the long windy siniTwith
which Mr. Godey regales the public in puffery of
his own work and in depreciation of others lor the
price of ten such magazines. In r.H this wc wish
not to derogate from the jiifl value of Mr. Godev's

and for this reason among others that none
of the contingencies have occured which in
the opinion of the General Assembly would
render action necessary or proper.
tf. Resolved That any interference which
may bo drawn from our non-concurrence
with the plan of a Nashville Convention ol
indifference on our part to the issue of the
great questions now pending will be wholly
unnarrantrd.
4. Resolved That wo arc decidedly op

Wihnol ptoviso or any kindred measure in
iVatning Tcrritoiial Govcnnments for the
country acquirrd fiom Mexico and also the
abolition ol slavery in the District of Colum-
bia. 5. Resolved "That it is a fundamental
principle in our political ciccd that a people
in I'm tiling a constitution have the uncondi-
tional right to form and adopt the govern-
ment which they may think best calculated
to secure Ihcir liberty propciity and hap-
piness and in conformity thereto no other
condition is imposed by the federal consti-
tulinn on a Slate in oidcrto be admitted into
this Union except that its constitution shall
be republican and llint the imposition of any
other by Congiess would not only be in vio-
lation of the constitution but in direct con
flict with the principle on which our politi-
cal system re-Is."
G. Rt solved That it is the imperative con-
stitutional duty of Congress so to legislate
as to n fiord to the owners' of fugitive slaves
who may esrnpe into the States iioMhwest of
the Ohio and nnitli of Mason and JJixon s
'iue the most full and ample security for the
rights guarantied to them by the third sec-
lion of the fourth article of the constitution
of the United States.
7. Resolved That the people of the Urn-
led Stales havo delegated to their public
functional ies so much power as is necessary
to enable thorn to administer the existing rov-
erniiients which the people have established
and no more and they have reserved to them-
selves exclusive ly the power of deciding when
and for what cause their institutions shall be
changed or subverted.

Here arc the evidences of the plot to which we
have refeired :
In one Southern paper which has jut fal
len into our hands from Wilmington N. f '.)
c find such language as this: Sat. Intel.
"tt liars the Remedy ! It ts a boulhcm
Confidiracrj with a Capital at Ashcville or
somewhere else on the mountains where the
lines of Georgia South and North Carolina
Tennessee and Virginia meet.
"11 hat trill the Southern Conrcntion do'!
Yo hope to have no more barren addresses.
If that is all the delegates intend they had
better stay at home. If then will methodize
a rt.A.v to dissolve the Uxiov ire iciU hail
them."
The Columbia (S. C.) Telegraph of Feb-
ruary loth contains a communication from
wc doubt not one of the very first men of
the Pnlmelto State to which in all Editoiinl
note the attention of every leader is diicetcd
in such a manner as to leave no doubt of its
being a delibciatc and studied exhibition of
the views ol" those who control public senti-
ment in that Slate. From this communica-
tion v.c cxtrait the following concluding par-
agraph which no comment can make clear-
er: Intelligencer.
'My idea is liisf lo perfect the Union of
Tlic oautli now so happily m progress. A
year ago I thought the South was doomed it
seenud so dead to its true situation mouthing
nftir the lessons of misei able demagogues
the sounding devices of pnrly. Hut this day-
is pnt Thcic are no more Whigs no more
Uemociats thcio is but one pally "the
Pnrty of ' ic South." The South is moused
her banner is on lhc outer wall" and the
cry is still "they come they come." Let
ment. Let our first and ftnlv duty be to form
a neto Constitution for the United Slates of
Jrorlli America and whtcli wnue u win
leave the door open for all will afford
equal justicejand protection to nil and prompt
and efficient remedies for its infractions. Il
this be done I think I hazard nothing in pre-
dicting that the non-slaveholding Slates will
promptly enter into the n ew Confederation."
Now if this docs not imply nay if it he not
he avowal of a determination to Dissolve
the U.mos' if dissolution can be effected.
hen do wc gically mistake the import of
very plain language. Arc our people tne
people of North Carolina prepared to resort
to this dreadful remedy? Wc do not believe

" It is the manifest interest ol the South
to dissolre the Union. She hasfuffcicd. and
is now suffering more injuries from the North
than the Colonies suffeicd from Great liiit-
ain and a second decIniulionwotildrchcai.se
more oppicssions than Mr. Jiflerson's.
What is a ta on tea and stamps compared
with the enormous burdens now leiied on
the agi-ctil'tire and commerce on the South?
So if is not for Northern hostility lo blavery
but on account of the Tariff that this pupei
would dissolve the Union.
" We hone the Southern Convention will
say to the North as Abram said to Lot:
" Let there be no strife I pray thee be-
tween me and thee and .between my hcid-

Wc commend to the attention of our readers the

Florida delegation in Gongreis. Its reasoning will

In our article of two weeks since wc promised lo

The Facullieo for intellectual abilities moral
worth and professional acquirements w ill compare
fivorably with tbcinot distinguished in ourcouutry.
The meihcal faculty conslitu'cs an anomaly in ibis
or any other country all of them are ablejtcinr-
era and the best of teachers.
I'lioso who will contemplate our geographical
position and the extent of our population can have
no doubt as to llie e'igibility of our situation fur an
enterprise of the kind. As to health including all
seasons of the year wc deny that any other city has
more.
The first class of the Law and Medical Depart-
ment of this school were small but the gentlemen
composing them arc talented and in the lushest de
gree respeilable a favorable omen fur the future
prosperity of the Institute.
Tint the public may be satisfied of the Perma
nency of this school wc feel it our duty to state
that the Trustees at.d faculty forma umt'hi action
which augurs well for its future suctesa : and that
llie peculiar internal organization which connects
them cannot be interrupted.
