This day, peculiarly the day of Charleston and of Carolina, has always been celebrated by some of the military companies of the city. On this occasion the Rifle Club, known as the Palmetto Club, had determined to expose to view a monument which they had erected in White Point Garden to commemorate the they were dismissed. As they ran off on being released, five of them were shot dead and three wounded. This story was circulated over the country the next day with all the horrors which a partisan press could invent. Gen. M. C. Butler, one of Carolina's favorite and most trusted sons, was represented as the leader in the attack on the house and the instigator of the inhuman massacre which followed their capture.

In 1850 he said the Constitution was the bond, and the only bond, of the union of these States, and in 1852, just before his death, he said they never intended to consolidate themselves into one government, and cease to be Maryland and Virginia, Massachusetts and Carolina. He saw that the people were the States and the States the people; and that the real government was the republics, or self-governors, named in the Constitution. Curtis, the most conspicuous living advocate of the pseudo nation, said Rhode Island had after independence, and of course up to her adoption of the Constitution, absolute sovereignty. [Ii Hist. Const'n, 599.] Again:—The meeting of the States [to form a Constitution] was purely voluntary: they met as equals, and they were s
