terrible la their import, that every effort to
embellish them see ins beta mockery. The
people of thi coon try are in the very jaws
of a disaster, the horrore of which beggar
' all detription. The Nation whirls giddily
room) the edges or a yawning maelstrom.
Hearing the tremendous abyss beneath,
"with an evenness and certainty nl motion
that chill the heart of the beholder. Civil
' war stares tie in the face; a war, the hor
ror of which no pen can describe, and the
end cr results of which no man can forese.
We have been ao long happy under our
j glorious Union, that it it almost impossible
for ns to even remotely conceive the miser
' iea that await 09
How this yawning rulf is to be closed pp,
no man ran'tell. A National Convention,
fresh from the people, wculd, as we verily
believe, save the country ; but how to ctt
a National Convention we know not. The
Northern l)em crate and conHerativea,who
have so long and nobly breasted the storm
of fanaticism and borne aloft the rights of
t the whole Union, Imve at lust been over
borne, and the Abolition cohorts have
' aexcd the givemirient over the mini of the
Constitution. The Democracy, thus dis
astrously defeated, teem to be unconscious
cf the enormous power they still possess,
end stand appalled in the presence of the
coming catastrophe. The Republicans
half gratified at the terrible miseries and
butcheries they would be enabled to inflict
on the Southern people, half unconscious
of the terrible futurejthey are creating, and
wholly and stubbornly benton maintaining
their political a. .ndency are every day
widening the golf that yawns before us.
By the most superhuman r Sorts they blind
the people to coming events. They iw-ck
and gibe about the impotence of 800th
Carolina, when thcv must know that in this
struggle South Carolina will bo but one of
nlten states, who will unite their destinies
for weal or woe forever. They prate about
the execution of law, in the face of a ter
rifio revolution, that is to rend the conti
nent asunder; in word, they fiddle and
dance, and snivel, and make nn.uths, when
the Republic is in flames.
. People of the Northwest, we again tell
yon that these men are more deadly ene
mies of you, and more deadly enemies of
themselves, than was ever L'ruse to Chris
tian or Samaritan t Jew. They have re
solved to see this Union perish, freighted
with all its hopes, rather than yield to the
feoutbern people those rights which have
been their birthright, and which are abso
lutely necessary to their safety and pence.
They have resolved to plunge the country
into nn inbuuinu and hopeless civil war,
for the sole sake of rivence. Every word
that reaches us confirms the belief that the
Kepublicso party are deliberately closing
their ers to every voice raited by Northern
Democrats and Southern conservatives to
Sure the country.

. As is well known, Mr. Crittenden, the

in favor of an amicable settlement of the

Black Republicans:
Resolved, That by the Senate and House
of Representatives, the following article be
proposed and submitted as an amendment

the conventions of three fourths of 'hepej
ple of the States :
First. Io all the territories r.ow, or hre
attcr acquired north of latitude 36 deg. 20
mio., slavery or involuntary servitude, ex
cept for punishment of crime is prohibited,
while in all the territories south of that,
eluvery is hereby recognized as existing,
and shall not be interfered with by Congress
but shall be protected an property by all
departments of the territorial governments
during itf continuance. All the territory
north or south of said line, within such
boundaiies as Congress may prescribe,
when it contains a population necessary fir
member of Congress, with a republican
form of government, shall be admitted into
the Union on an equality with the original
States, with or without slavery, as the con
titution of the State shall prtscribe.
Second. Congress shall have no authority
to abolish slavery in the Slates permitting
lavery .
Third. Congress shall have no power to
faindor slavery io the District of Columbia,
while it exists in Virginia or Maryland, or
either ; nor shall Congress at any time

fugitive slave law it shall be deemed im

- OFFICIAL PAPER OF TH CITI .
Tuesday, January 1, 1861.
The Hen Tesr.
Everything of earth has its beginning
and end, its first and last. Whoever and
whatever is blessed with existence wil;
meet an inevitable end. Each returning
year has a first and last day, ao the eye of
man glance for the first and last time upon
loved ones, and ones not loved.
The birth of all things is joyous. Tbe
stars sang together at the birth of the earth.
Tbe heavenly hosts sang at the birth of the
Savior. And it is well that we greet the
new year with a welcome of gladness. Let
us look forward in hope that it may be one
of happiness, and peace and plenty. Much
it will surely take away of what we love
much of what life holds dear it may bear
off all ; at least, its piniona be they of ebony
or gold, shall waft ns nearer life's solemn
close and nearer the eternal doom.
Tbe fleetness of time, the coming and
going years, the transcientnessof all things,
animate and inanimate, should calm our
passions, temper our hopes and give us
holier moo Js, better and milder thoughts,
and true wisdom for our future guidance.
Radiant as maybe the new year in tbe
golden light of its auspicious morn, vicissi
tude and change will mark its progress.
To some it will yield affluence for penury,
to some exchange fame for obsurity. Many
there are to whom it presence i the bar
bicger of blessings, who will encounter,
before its close, grevious wrongs, bitter
trials, sad disappointments and severe re
verses. And how much we purpose to ac
complish in the next twelvemonths on this
New Year's day, that will be left undone.
Like tbe voyager who beats about upon the
ocean amid storms and tempests, it will
leave us at its close perhaps as remote from
the accomplishments of our proposed plans
and destiny as we were at the beginning,
and it may be remoter still. Down, down
on it heavy tides will the year 1861 bear
the wreck of noble heart, of grand achiev
ments, of lofty enterprises and high as
perations ; for 'twas even thus with the
years gone by, and we must judge of tbe
future from the past.
But in welcoming the new year, we can
not hide from our eyes the fearful peril
which threatens our country. From the
sunny plains of the South corne up to us
mutterings of revolution and war. Already
tbe tread of the demon of destruction is
heard in the distance. Tbe prospect is in
deed sad and gloomy. The fact that we,
or tbe party to which we have the honor to
belong, is not responsible for the terrible
state of things, does not quiet our alarms.
But while we look forward fearfully fur the
result of the impending crisis, let us trust
in Him who guides the nations, and under
Ilim to those whose positions, wisdom and
large patriotism, can alone be instrumental
in effecting our deliverance.
We must now close our obeisance to the.
new year, and try to stifle the reflections of
Sorrow which rise in our minds in contem
plating the state of our nation, and, for a
moment, join in the rejoicings over it
birth.
And hence here's a hapi't new tear to
everybody in general and to our patrons in
particular.
" It is an accepted axiom that be who
encourages, aids, and abets crime is equally
guilty with the actual perpetrator. In this
view, the editors of such journals as the
New York Herald, Chicago Times, and
Joliet Signal, mut stand before the coun
try as moral traitors to the Confederacy.
Upon such really rests the responsibility
for the results which threaten tho over
threw of the nation and the inauguration
of civil war." True Democrat.
The Republican newspapers, alarmed at
the terrible results of their teaching and
doctrines, are endeavoring to churge the
responsibility to tbe Democracy. Such a
charge is not only cowardly and mean, but
dastardly false, as every man possessed of
three grains of brains must know.
We deny, utterly deny, that any portion
of tho Northern Democratic press has mis
represented the Black Republican party to
the South. The New York Herald, the
Chicago Times, the Joliet Si'jnal, and every
other Democratic paper north of Mason
and Dixon's line, have had no occasion to
misrepresent the Republican party to the
South, in order to excite the people cf that
portion of the Union, for its doctrines and
purposes as announced by its leaders, have
been so ultra that no misrepresentation
could magnify their radicalism. The peo
ple of the South understood the position of
the Black Republican party, without tbe
aid of Northern Democratic newspapers.
They have learned the principles of the
party from the speeches ot its leader:-, Sow.
ard, Sutrner, Wade, Hale, Giddmgs, Love
joy, Wilson and others. They have learned
from the acts of the party, its platform and
the speeches of these men, that it is an ag
gressivc, anti slavery party. And a a co
temporary truthfully says, for twenty years
the pulpit, the school, tbe politician, and
the press have taught the people of tbe
North to hate the people of the South.
And since tbe formation of the Republican
party they have constantly traduced the
people of tbe South ; they have spurned
them from their churches and communion
tables ; they have stolen their property,
and preveoted its recovery by State legis
lation and armed force ; tbey bave scat
tered poison amongst the slaves and taught
them to mingle it in tbe cup of their mas
ter; they bave incited insurrection ; they
have elected a President by force of a
sectional vote, and now boast that they have
the S. utu under their feet. The people of
tbe South could not stand all this. And
they bave resolved to seek redress in the
precise way predicted by the Democrats in
tbe event of tbe final triumph of Black Re
publicaoism.
The present excitement and revolutiona
ry movements in the South are consequen
ces of the aggressions of the Black Re pub
licans of tbe North, and for which the
Democratic press is io no way responsible,
and of which it has given the country time
ly warnings.
Tbe True democrat and it Republican
cotemporaries cannot bide tbe facts by
charging tbe responsibility of tbe present
distracted state of the country to tbe Dem
ocrats. The calamity which has ccme upon
.as is the fruit of Black Republicanism.
i he Republican party ahmo is responsible
i 'T all the mischief. The effort of tht.
Republican press to saddle the rfiffim.lt;
tipun the Democrats ia not only ridiculous I
but outrageous. I
The Republicans Agralnst Con
ciliation. Is it possible that we have amongst ua
any considerable number of American citi-.
tens who are careless and indifferent as to
the termination of the alaiming difficulties
that envelope our country T Is it true that
we have in our midst those who wou d
rather see a dissolution of the TJni.in and
our character and greatness as a nation
obliterated bad rather see civil war, with
all its appalling horrors, its ruin, misery,
and degradation thaa surrender their own
peculiar opiiitns'upbn technical abstrac
tions Opinions which, if carried out, would
not advance or aid the cans of religion,
humanity, or our greatness as a nation f
Yes, we are sorry to say, we have some
such characters amongst us men who, from
political prejudice and political hate, would
fold their arms and quietly behold this
government destroyed, the Union dissolved
and the land drenched in human blood,
rather thau yield one iota of their owe nar
row, selfish and fanatical view. An ap
peal to such bigots and ambitious dema
gogues cannot avail anything.
Then again, we are sorry to say, we have
amongst us a class of politicians wbo seri
ously regret the condition of tbe country,
and wbo are at heart ready and willing to
consent to any just and honorable compro
mise to adjust the difficulties that are npon
us. They see and feel the importance of
consenting to any honest and fair conces
sion. But while their patriotism prompts
them to say so, they imagine their political
interest forbid it. Why is this 1 It is not
because they want to keep up and sustain
tbe sectional Black Republican party and
secure office under Lincoln's adminis
tration. None of them know to a certainty
what course Mr. Lincoln will pursue ; and,
therefore, they are very cautious about
committing themselves too strongly in favor
of conservative and conciliatory measures
They all know the position of our member
of Congress, Hon. Owen Lovejoy. They
know that be hates the people of the South
ern States and is in favor of breaking down
the government in order to set tbe niggers
free.
And the impression prevails pratis gen
erally among our Republican friend in
this part of the country, that this same
Lovejoy, with all his negro notions, will
have the distribution of the government
patronage in bis own district. Hence the
loud and clamorous denunciations of the
South which rise up from the rank of our
Black Republican opponents. And in
order to find favor with this Abolition
Congressman, they are cheering to " stand
firm," to yield nothing," to " make no
concession." " We are the victors," say
they, and we will rule and direct this gov
ernment as tee pleaso. Sui:h are the sen
timents we bear daily expressed, doubtless
intended to' please Lovejoy, who it is be
lieved has Lincoln's sympathy.
But, Republican friend, remember that
the brave are always generous and that the
victorious should be just. Therefore, we
trust, you will pause for one moment in
your desperate career and consider the in
evitable result of the course you are pursu
ing. Canuot you rise above party interests
and party prejudices 1 Can you not ele
vate yourselves above your own pecuniary
hopes, your own momentary political pre
ferment and sacrifice something for the
good of your country J Greater men than
any of you have made great cone ;
and compromises to promote the c . " .
good and to save the country fro.f. ntr
threatening dangers, and their nam
deed live in the greafful icmembrai i
admiring millions and on the page of our
couufy's history, while those who have
opposed compromise and a just observance
of the priocipleeof the compact which hold
tbe States together, have passed away,
"unknown, unwept and unhonored."
"As Enev in the Camp." The tone
of a certain Democratic paper printed not
far from our State cnpitol, and it ill timed
denunciation and abuse of President Bu
chanan, and Democrat of the Southern
State generally, show a leaning to the
enemy which will never be tolerated by
the Democracy of Illinoi. We have bad
too much of this sort of talk by the Demo
cratic press of this State, and we now insist
that they either go directly over to the en
emy or cease abusing a Democratic Presi
dent for doing his duty.
Chicago Times. We call the attention
of our readers to the article from the Chi
cago Times copied in to day's paper. The
Times is djir.g much to open the eyes of
the people 'as rvgards the true state of
national affairs. Would that the Demo
cratic press woultfr Imitate its example, for
it is only by such patriotic appeals to the
intelligence of the people that tbe Uuion
can be saved.
Significant. George Thompson, the
British Abolitionist who originated the
Abolition movement in this country twenty
five years ago, has written a letter to the
Boston Abolitionists, congratulating them
on Lincoln's election and the present com
plicated and alarming state of national
affairs.
Jgy Hon. P. E. Thomas, lately appoint
ed Secretary of the Treasury, in place of
Mr. Cobb, resigned, was formerly Governor
oi Maryland, and has tbe reputation of a
man of ability and integrity.
Concert. The concert given by the
teachers and scholars of tbe First Baptist
Courch, of this city, io Young' Hall, on
Wednesday evening last, was in every
respect a creditable affair. Tbe Hall wus
very well filled, aud tbe singing aod music
was excellent. Tbe parte were arranged
with good taste, aod performed with a de
gree of proficiency hardly expected. Mr.
Grundy, under whose direction was the
entertainment, i a superior musician, and
knows bow to please the music loving pub
lie.
fcS-Tbe ball giveu io Schied'a Hall on
last Weduesday evening, for the purpose of
raising money to pay off the debt on the
German Catholic school bouse, was a com
plete success. It was well attended, and
the proceeds were amply sufficient for tbe
purpose intended. The German Catholic
echo. I, under the control of Mr. Wehan

is prospenngly finely.

Democratic State Convention.
Io view of tbe existing national difficul
ties, and the dangers which threaten tbe
Union, tbe Democrat) State Committee
have called a State convention to assemble
at Springfield 00 Wednesday, tbe lGih day
of January.
This action of the Democratic State
Committee will meet the approbation of
every Democrat in the State. Let the
Democracy of Illinois meet in convention
aud show to tbe world that they are will
ing to agree to such an adjustment of the
question that is now causing the Union to
totter on the verge of ruin, as will save it
from the appalling perils. Dooglus has
set a noble example, and let the Democracy
of tbe State show that they are willing to
sustain him in his patriotic efforts to restore
peace to the country.
Will County.
We are indebted to W. . Wagner, Esq ,
Deputy County Clerk, for the following
statement of tbe property and wealth of
this county, as shown by the assessors'
books of the different towns for tbe year
1800:
Tbe total value of real and personal tax
able property in tbe county is $&,4S4.299,
of which $5,211,422 is real, and $1,272,877
is personal property. The total amount of
State, county and special tax, levied in the
county for the year ia $93,725 4. There
are 11,371 horses and 36.128 cattle in tbe
county. The number of acres "oMand in
cultivation this year was 139,987, of which
20,002 were in wheat, 72,303 ;uoro, and
41,599 io other field product?.
Will county, as shown by these figures,
is rapidly increasing in wealth and pros
perity. She is ' now, second to but few
counties in the State a regards' namerical
strength and wealth, and a few year more
will place ber in the first rank.
Jewelry Every desirable article in
the jewelry line, either decorative or use
ful, may be found at the store of F. E
Demuiond, on Jefferson street. Hi assort
ment of watches, clocks, cutlery, and fancy
article generally, offer inducements rarely
found in an establishment of the kind. As
this ii a proper time to make presents, we
would advise our 'friend to call on Mr.
Demmond if they desire anything really
beautiful and valuable to give their friend.
Excitement at the South.
Account from the S utU are of the most
gloomy character. Tbe agitatioo and
alarm increases. No one feels secure. To
show the state of feeling, to some extent,
in that section of our Union, we are per
mitted to make tbe following extract from
a letter written by a lady in North Carolina
to a friend bere. Though the letter was
not written for publication, the reader,
nevertheless, can learn much of the true
state of affair there from the perusal of
tbe extract given :
" There is ever so much excitement here
today. Judge of my feeling when on

once there should beany proof of a con

reason. J told me to tell poor old
Harry to stay in his bouse all night, for
we don't know at what moment trouble

innocent victims of fanaticism so much in
my lite. If those meddlesome Abolitionist
knew what they were doing, I am sure they
would have allowed the poor negro to
remain in tbe happy contented condition in
which be has lived for so many year."
From Washington.
Washington, Dec. 28.
The statement seems to be truthful that
the South Carolina commissioner, in view
of tho alleged stipulations on the part of
tne President that the garrisons of Charles
tun Harbor should not be augmented, r.or
tne military statues ot the forts changed,
requested the President to inform them
whether Maj. Anderson's movement was
in cousequence ol any order issued by bim
or from the War Department. The Presi
dent responded negatively, and added that
Maj. Anderson had acted on bis own re
sponsibly. The Commissioners then re
quested the President to remand Maj. An
derson to Ft. Moultrie, but on this point
there was no conclusion when the Cabinet
adjourned.
The act of Mnjor Anderson is generally
cuuiuieiiucu, mr, among otner reasous.that
white fort Moultrie wa comparitively
weak and might provnRo the nL.i. r i
mob, tbe impregnable defence of Fort
bumpier placed it beyond such contingen
cy, as it could be reduced only by a regular
biiu proiracieu siege, idus avoiding an im
mediat collision.
Mr. Holt tbe Post Master General, has
sent orders to the nuD treasurer at Charles
ton to remit all the balance $85,000 ; on
the Post Office account, in possession, im
mediately to the credit of that Department.
If this order is out complied with at once.
he will demand of tha Federal Government
to etiiorce the orders. He ia alun determ
ined, as before suggested, to suppress mail
matter to aud from South Carolina, if tbe
mails are interfered with in that State.
The Cabinet broke up to night after-five
hours' session, without Doming to any eon
elusion relative to the disposition ol troops
at Charleston. The impression prevailed
that a conflict was inevitable. Secretary
Toucey and Mr. Iiolt,P.wt Muster General,
urged detence, the others, a further evacu
atmn of necessary.
A dispatch received to night by a mem
ber of the Cabinet says that troops are
pouring into Charleston from all direc
tions. The opinion was expressed by y promi
nent member ol the Cabinet to-night that
war is already begun.
Georgia troops at last accounts were cal
led in to join the South Carolina forces.
A dispatch from Charleston states that
the proposed State loan of $400,000 is al
ready parceled out amongst the wealthiest
m-n of the State, mainly so Charleston,
that each is expected to furnish hi share
under the penalty of being couaidered dis
affected. Kentcckt The telegraph has brought
us the intelligence that Gov. Magoffin bas
at last consented to call an extra session of
tbe Legislature of Kentucky. It will meet
on the 17th, after tbe Siato conventions of
Alabama, Mississippi and Florida shall
have determined the course of those States.
t&" A scarcity of corn, amounting to
starvation, is predicted for some parts of
Alabama in lese than two months. Tbe

The convention met at 12 o'clock.
Mr. Rhett spoke on the report of the
committee who had under consideration the
address to the people of the Southern States,
and also on tbe ordinance for the formation
of a Southern Confederacy. He said the
object was to ensure a speedy organization
for a permanent protection of our right.
Texas and Arkansas were at least acting in
favor of the proposition. He advocated the

Washington, Dec. 27.
Gen. Scott declares that Major Ander
son movement at Charleston had been
made without consultation with bim, and
whether in accordance with instructions
from tbe President bo could not sav. II )
considered that, in a stragctical point of
view. Major Anderson had done perlertly
right, as he was now in a position he that
could maintain, which was not the case ut
Fort Moultrie, w here bis small force c uld
bave been overcome in a short time.
It remains to be seen whether Major
Anderson has acted under ordeis or upon
h's own responsibility.
It bas been ascertained with certainty
that a majority of the Republican members
of Congress are teady to guarantee the re
peal ot the Personal Liberty Bills. If the
South i indisposed to meet the concession
proposed, the Republicans contend that it
cau only be through u determination to le
ject all compromises.
It is understood that Gov, Brown, of fla.,
has solicited from the Secrtarv ,( War
?"doT i,l,tained' B yer' ,eHe uf absence
for Col. Harden, late commandant nt West
Piint, to go to Krupe to purchase guns
and munition of wai for tbe State or Geor

The news of the capture of Fon Moultrie
and Castle Pinckuey reached the Aitjnig
tration while iu Cabinet meeting to day
Tbe Commissioners from South Carolina
are in conference with them. The Com
missioner demand that the trmpsbe with

last interview, and they will return to
South Carolina and prepare for the worst.
The proposal for the five millions in

Charleston, Dec. 28.
Tbe Palmetto flag was raised early yes
terday p. m. over the custom house and
post office. At five o'clock last evening,
the Palmetto flag was raised at Castle Pinc
kuey. A large military force went over last
night to take possesion of Fort Moultrie.
Later. Castle Piockney and Fort
Moultrie were taken possession of bv South
Carolina military last night.
Later Still. Capt. Humphreys still
holds possesttiou of the arsenal.
Castle Piockney and Fort Moultrie are
occupied by the State troops, under tbe in
struction of the Governor of the State, to
hold peaceable possesion of these foru.aud
for tbe purpose of protecting the govern
ment property.
Castle Piockney and Fort Moultrie were
held by about twelve men, wbo peaceably
surrendered. Thero was no collision; none
was antidipated when the troops left the
city to garrison these fort. Tbe excite
ment is subsiding.
Resignation of General Cass. The
Washington Constitution, in noticiug the
resignation of Gen. Cass, say:
"To avert all misconstruction or mis
statements of the reason which o,n.i k.
.. WUHCVt. 1
event, we have taken tlm rain, tr.
the truth. It is not that Mr Cas differed i
irom tne resident in regard to any portion
of hi late message. Ou tbe question of
Compelling State to remain in tbe Union
by military force tbe President and Gen.
Cas were precisely of the same opinion.
The difficulty arose from the fact that Mr.
Cas insisted that naval and military force
should be sent immediately to Charleston
to reinfurce the forts in that harbor, and
that the President was of the opinion there
wa no necessity for any such measure in
order to secure the forte against attack."

A KIch Editor. '
Clark, the indomnitable editor of the
Kendall County Clarion, is better iff than
most editors. By tbe following enumera
tion of his effects, which we find in the
last number of bis paper, it will bo seen
that fortuue has smiled on bis efforts since
the Clarion has doffed tbe neutral flag aod
donned the habiliament of Democracy;
"If anybody ba got more of this worlds
goods than we have they are to be pitied,
n'u ruch a bother to take care of tnem
We bave got two suits of clothes, two pairs
oi boots, both rather worse for wear ; one
hat (shocking bad.) nine shirt, and eleven
dollars depreciated Illinois currency, one
Spanish quarter, which passes current
for twenty cents, and a three cent piece
Then we have got thirty bushels of pota
toes, plenty of beans, onion and cabbages,
a quarter of beef, a bam, the flour of four '
bushel of wheat, and groceries enough to
last us till spring, besides this we bave

need make ua feel dissatisfied, we have
yet to leurn it. -Gay is the life of ao ed
itor." Free labor for free men." eras nn
oi tne watcn cries ol the Kepubiican party.
"With the election of Lincoln, says a ci
temporary, "they have given practical ef
feet to this point in their creed. Not con
tent with having free farms, they must
bave free labor, aud they have at last u
ceeded in obtaining it ; fr, since tbe elec
tion of Lincoln, tbe supple of free labor has
so far exceeded the do- ...nd that in New
York city it can only . obtained at such
slight remuneration as -j render it almost
literally free. In many towns in New Eng
land score of laborers cannot get their
bread fur tbeir labor.
XrMr. Breckinridge is expected to
make a speech at tbe democratic celebra
