 SIR: The undersigned, on behalf of their fellow citizens of ''thc Union and State Rights Party" have the honor to invite you to q Din ner given on the approaching Fourth of July, in cclebration of the Anniversary of American Independence.

 Had we regarded this return ofthe birth day of our nation, as an era of merely ordinary ina port, we should not perhaps have token the liberty to present ourselves to you. But the case is far otherwise.

 As native of the State of South-C Carolina, and one whom she has always delighted to honor, we do not doubt, Sir that you have felt such interest in the expressions of senti- mcnt and opinion, which have been clcited during the progress of affairs among us, as to be fully aware of the great lines of distinction drawn between the several partit s in the State as well as ct the poitentous omens which threaten us with civil convulsion. It is well knownto ycu and to the world, that the late political discussions and events have tended to l9csent thnse bonds of fraternL af, ction which | cnce iipited the remotcSt parts ot cur great rmpirt. Geographical limits are familiarly | refcrrdl to as connected with separate and dis | i ,intedintercsts, and too many of cur youth 1 are grdwing up, as we fear and deeply h. mcnt, nn the dangerous belief that these intcr-

 

 We conceive it, Sir, to be a matter of min ite imp to cur country, that these fla tal errors shauld be promply corrected, and the feelings which they cEgendcr thoroughly ciadcated, that the ancient ties of friendship may cnce more knit closely together the sev eial members of curhappY contcderacy. Iii our special aim to revive in it's full force the benign spirit of Unicn---to renew the mutual confidence in each others good will and pat ri0tism, without which the laws and statutes, and forms of government of these States, will exist in vain. We discam from the bottom of our hearts, all political or party purpose of local nature or circumscribed extent. We | esteem as brethren and associates aN whoc0r dially unite with us in devotion to cur common country. and in the firm resolution to defend her institutions, and transmit them unimpar- ed to the generations that shall succeed us Your sentiments in relation to this subject are | well konwn, and have been repeatedly an- nounced. and we arc proud to regard you, Sir, as one of cur fathers and leaders.

 In this spirit, and with these views, we re- quest the honer of your presence on the ap- preaching occasion. The citizens of Charles ton have fiattered themselves with the hope that you would be able, without incnnven- fence, to comply with their invitation, urged some time since through the municipal au- thoritcs May we b- permitted to indicate the period of your visit, so far as that it shall include the Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. | With the most respectful consideration, sir, we have the honor to be your EXcclency's cb't serv'ts, Commbtec of .4,rangements.
