A letter from a New York, jrcntleman, of liberal ami enlightened views, ami connected with the South by many ties, says, "T need not assure you of how deeply the sym pathies ol all here have been moved by the late dia bolical incursion into Virginia. I have never been so alarmed as now for the disruption of our benifi cent and glorious Uni.w. Should it take place, how bitterly all will feel, that it is a problem where the two halves are a great deal less than the whole. The collapse that would take place in Northern property exceeds: all computation, and nowhere more than in New York City and State. "The South could easily make commercial treaties with France an 1 Kngland even treaties offensive and defensive; for England particularly has too many mil lions of its people dependent upon cotton to permit the extinction or even a long interruption of slave labor in the South. ' I do not apprehend that the catastrophe is very near. Hut considering the Ion.' continued and in creasing finaticism of the Eastern States and New Wk and Ohio about slavery, I think it will occur. "The North western States that might be the umpire in our antagonism, are much under the in lluenceofthe Noi h. The teachers tro from thence, and European emigrants, ignorant of the value of the I nion and prejudiced asiainst slaverv, all go there. So that the West will hardly be conservative. "lou must at the South "Pray to (iod and keep rour powder dry" pass severe police laws, cultivate the mechanic arts, and initiate some independent commercial intercourse with Europe.'
