The Charleston Mercury was in existence from 1822-1868 and The Charleston Courier from 1803-1852. They are on microfilm at the Charleston County Public Library. I believe the Charleston Library Society also has them (843 723-9912 - a subscription library that does do interlibrary loan to members) Your local library might be able to find other places that have holdings as well.
