We see by later papers that Hon. w. c. PRESTON
has resigned his seat in the Senate. 1t is probable
that Mr.. McDUFFIE will be elected Immediately
to lake his place Mr.. CALHoUNs resignation is
expected at the close of the present session.


The Message of Gov RlcHARDsoN is very long
and mainly occupied in the discussion of topics Of
local interest Congress is literally denounced for
passing the Single District Bill, the Distribution
Bill and the Tariff, and the Compromise Bill is
spoken Of most absurdly as a solemn treaty.
ratified in the face of the Nation, approved and
commended by our sister States The Governor
deoil5 with pathetic eloquence the patient submis-
operation and claims great credit for having regard
ed this law OF the Union, Z" amid all the multiplied
opportunities afforded by party rancour, and polit
icai intrigue when the weakness of an admins
tration sought support on the most Southern terms
---ches om1aSloas osplrants courted alliances
and prcGered concessions, and when the Demo
cratic principles of the late administration
ready to accord US all its aid and sanction."-
Verify did require no little virtue to withstand all
these tempting brbes to held out by North
ern men with Southern principles! Then comes
the Gubernatorial wall over the Tariff:


q And now, the anxious!y expected period hav-
ing arrived for the commencement Of the promised
era Of free trade and reform, our concessions are
met, aud our confidence betrayed by the reestabIsh
nent OF system of restrictive duties, odious,
oppressive, and unjust, than any that has yet
desolaed the prospects CT bghted the destinies of
the South.


9Ae Message insinuates pretty broadly that our
Government ought to declare war against Mexico,
in ocder to secure the independence Of Texas, and
speaks in nigh terms Of the recently ratified Treaty
with Grent Britain, vita only this draw back:


While, however, so much has been achieved TO
allay the spirit OF war and dissatisfaction, arising
out OF the border aggressions of few awless citi
zcns and the contested jurisdiction of barren
territory, ii is to be regretted that little has
been conceded to the protection and security of
Southern property and institutions, against the
piratica spoatons and interference of foreign
tuncionaries. In this aspect, and indeed, for all
practical purposes, it would seem that the guaran-
ties of the Constitution, to protect those nstitu-
tons, have been utterly annihilated from the unre-
deemed and enumerated pledges of the Confed-
eracy, s.to provide for the commen defence and
general welfare.


OfNew-Y ork the Governor thus speaks


The position of alliance which this State has
assumed in defending the institutions OF the South,
against the aggressive sisaton of New-York, Is
of character TOO important and interesting TO be
overlooked in the deliberations of the present ses-
sion The wise and necessary inspection !aw-ln-
stituted by Virginia, to regulate her commercial
relations with that State, and adopted with great
proniiety, and trust salutnry effect, in this-has
been executed, so far us it has been in my power
to enforce it, with the most exact and rigid adhe-
renee to its provisions and requirements. The mea-
sure mild, temperate, and defensive as 1t is-the
least that an injured State, or an agsrevcd people
could resort to, to protect the rights aad property
Of the notwithstanding and constitutional as it
must be admitted by all States and Nations to be
has, | regret to say, not been responded to, by
the repeal those obnoxious measures against the
Institutions of the South upon the evidence of
which, should have been authorised to suspend
its operations.


Yet it has not. trust, been altogether without
its effect upon the counses, or its moral influence
upon the justice and the magnanlmity, OF the en-
hgh,ened people of New-Yor The principles
of democracy, about to be ascendant in her coun.
sells, will unques,ionaby repudate the injustice
af enacting aggressive laws to violate the rights
and Institution of sister State. The late deci-
sious of the Federal Judiciary too plainly Prohibi:
and discountenance such daring and wan,on out
RACES upon tie guaranteed and sovereign rights of
an independent member of the Contederacy The
confidence of her people has already been shorn
OF influence by the actors and instigators OF that
unwise aud illibera proceeding and the official
aggressors themselves, Iebuked, dishonored, and
distrused, are about to be consigned to merlted
and retributive obscurity.


No othcr Legislative action is perhaps necessary
al this time, but to rccnact tha provision OF the
law, leaving it discretionary with the Executive TO
suspend It's operation in the event of those favor
able contingencies arising, which would render 1t
eXpeden, To exercise 1t.


Many gratifying, although unofficial, assurances,
induce US u hope for speedy renewal of odr ami
cable relations with sister State whose import
ance as one of the largest and most commercial
members of the Confederacy, as we'll as the sound
democratic principles and enterprising spirit OF her
people, and above all, the friendly associations
hitherto subsistDg between US, render in every re-
spect desirable.
