FAYING FOR FUGITIVES*
-A. correspondent, “ K." recommends as a
measure of settlement between the North
and South, the plan of paying for Fugitive
Slaves, from, we suppose, the National
Treasury. Wo have already stated our
objections to that scheme. -They-were sal
isAcloiy io our readers at the time they
were made, and we see no reason to be
have that their force has since been weak
ooad» But why talk of compromises to
•men who are determined to accept none ?
A SUPPOSITION.
Suppose a commander of a force garri
soning a fortification, is apprised of the im
minent danger of an attack—thathc is fully
advissdthat the guns which bear upon the
4Bioat approach to the fortress, are entirely
unfit for nse, and that the wall at the weak*
Sit point U much dilapidated, and that in
various other particulars he is unprepared
for a vigorous resistance? Suppose, fur
ther, that this commander lias at hand, or
within ready reach, all the force and mate
rial necessary to put his post in a complete
state of defence, and yet neglects to do any
thing himself and refuses to allow his sub
ordinates to do anything —what would lie
his fate before a Court Martial ? A file of
men with ball-cartridges would soon send
him to a traitor's grave, if he were not de
nied the soldier's privilege of dying :i sol
tier's death, and handed over to the hang
man.
Mr. Buchanan is this man if be refuses
fora moment to take the necessary means
to protect the forts in Charleston harbor.
Hois not only the civil head of the Gov
ernment, hut be is Commandcr-in-Chief-of
tho Army and Navy of the United States,
and we should like to know where there is
any evidence that, as such, he is notes
amenable to the military law as the lowest
subaltern in the service.
IS THERE NO LYNCHING?
Tho extraordinary denial of the Chicago
Times, that there are no cases of political
lynching in the South, is happily met by
official documents from v hc scat of war.
"VYe have before us a Proclamation of.T. M.
Withers, Mayor of Mobile, In which an ap
peal is made from Vigilance Committees to
the efficiency of the law, and in which he
uses this sensible languge :■
Fellow citizens, be not deceived; permit not
an over-excited zeal in a good cause to blind
you to (he too certain consequences of an evil
•xample. * ♦ ♦ ♦ * The individual
respectability ofthc members of a lawless a*s»-
ci&tlun cannot render such association respecta
ble, but unfortunately only makes tho example
moropregnant of evil. It rnav be a vc-rv con
servative and right disposed inch, but It is :»
mob for all that. Bow soon will it prove to
hare been the parent of a succession of mob?-,
each more violent than the preceding, until
anarchy prevails,' and the fierce instincts t.f
brutal passions, inaugurate another reign <-t
terror. There Is no safety outside or tin*
law.
"Wo see also by the Cincinnati Gasciie
that the Mayor of Savannah has issued a
Proclamation offering a reward of SICO
for the apprehension and conviction of par
ties whodiave recently, in that city, been
engaged in lynching persons charged with
being incendiaries in a political sense. The
Savannah Republican condemns the law
lessness alluded to in severe terras
Here, now, arc two of the principal cities
of tlie South iu which the inquisltori:.:
tribunals luive carried their outrages to
such an extent, that the civil authorities
though partaking of the prevailing excite
ment, ami sympathising with the objects of
the mob, have been forced to interfere.
What must be the condition of Northern
men, suspected of having voted for Lin
coln, in the interior districts where the
mobs are under no control and fear no
check? We ask the Time* to reiterate its
denials.
NB. DOUGLAS.
No reader of the Chicago Tmnuxn
need be told that it believes that the sec
tional excitement and trouble which now
threaten the dissolution of the Union, are
due in a great measure to the ill-liirted, ill
advised and unnecessary Nebraska hill,
and the profound political changes winch
followed that measure. There is not a men
in the United States, unless he be a Dlsur.-
ionist or an Abolitionist per «■, who would
not make any sacrifice consistent with hon
or and dutj', if the condition of tilings
which prevailed in 1853, before tlie adjust
ment of 1820 was disturbed, could he re
stored now. That fact, and the further
fact that all measures of compromise con
ing from Northern sources, look to a resb>:
ration and extension of the Missouri linej
arc evidences of what the country lostM-l
disunion gained when that line was wiped
out.
We lire glad, depile Mr. Douglas'ernv,
wblcU has been fatal to his prospecls ;-
seel I as pernicious to the country, to w ■
that he is now inclined to face the mischi.-f
he Ims wrought, like a man, and to ran c
himself along side of the friends of the
Union in the contest which he lids prer
pitated. If his intentions arc reported cn;-
rectly, he will take high ground in opposi
tion to the disturbers of the public pcnc",
and by Ids voice and vote support the Ad
ministration of the people's . choice, and,
we hope, the truly national,' conservative
and patriotic policy which they have cr.-.
dorsed. We arc not insensible to the Jed
that his accession to the ranks of the Union
men, in this emergency, is important, not'
so much for his influence in the Semite as
for the weight of his name and example
among his supporters in the North. The
crisis may come in which their co-opera
tion with the Republicans for the mainlcn
anceof the Constitution and tho Union will
bo of the highest importance. Looking to
that day, we feel that we may congratulate
our readers upon the unequivocal position
assigned to him by all the rumors which
come from the seal of government.

It was announced some time since limt

the Cora, had arrived in Xcw York a pris
oner, and had been handed over to the
Federal authorities, A lettcrin the Boston
Aitertvxr, from a correspondent on licartl

makes np the aggregate of two thousand
two hundred and fifty human beings lain n
from slave hulks by our African sqm,'.

commander in charge. - A-letter in Ihc

About two thirds of the whole number arc
from New 1 ork. "Whether owned th, re

--count of its superior facilities for furnishing
the necessary supplies and the requisite of
flcial carelessness, is not shown. In the
case of the barque Cora, however, it i- i n
evidence as a matter of record that she was
seized on suspicion of being a slaver before
she cleared on her “trading voyage,” ap
praised at about threcrfif.hs of Iter value
and bonded for good behavior—her bonds
being signed by two responsible and doubt
leas “respectable” citizens.
}Ye shall watch the fate of Capt. la

this conntty and of the civilized world he

which any jury would be obliged to call

though he were calculating exactly what'
number he should be obligcdto kill in or
ilcrto reach a markef with the remainder.
What is the significance of this activity in
the slave traffic ? It means that a long sea*
sou of impunity has emboldened the out*
laws to embark more largely in the busi
ness, trusting to a debauched public senti
ment for their escape from the penalty af
fixed in purer times to their heinous crime.
Now we have a first class culprit in the
hands of our executive officers. Let us see
whether he too v escapes'the doom which
his act has invited. Lot us see whether a
juiy can he found, or rather will be found,
to declare that this man has been guilty of
liaving African slaves in his possession, in
transitu, on the high seas.
SOME OP THE CAUSES.
Tho Committee of Thirty-three, by a vote
of twenty-one to eight, have resolved that
the South has cause for her present dissat
isfaction. Wc think so, too; bat we differ
widely from those who voted for the reso
lution, os to what constitutes that cause.
In our opinion it is to be found in the fol
lowing facts:
I. Hatred of the Union.— The leaders in
the secession movement have at no time
within the last thirty years, been in favor
of the Union. They have submitted to it
upon compulsion and under protest Their
constant declaration has been that it is ad
verse to Southern interests and Southern
aggrandisement The great end of their I
existence has been, while retaining office
under it, to depreciate and undervalue it
to their constituents, to weaken its hold
upon the affections of the Southern people,
audio create a public sentiment in that
section which, upon the slightest imaglna
ry pretext, would throw off allegiance to
it, and set up a distinct and independent
Southern Confederacy. From the day in
which the banner of nullification was
raised by Calhoun and Haync, tho polili-
clans of that school liavc never made the
slightest effort to conceal their disloyalty,
and their treasonable purposes have been
restrained only by the lack of power to
make suscessful resistance, and by the
penalty annexed to the overt act
1L Ths prospective loss of potter in all the
departments of the Federal Government.
The election of a Republican President has
increased the hatred of the Union which
has so long rankled in the hearts of tho
professed disunionists. A Union that
could scarcely he tolerated when every de-
partment of government was under the
control of the slavery-propagandists—when
the whole ol its patronage came into their
liands, and every measure of policy was
dictated by them, of course would be far
moore odious with these conditions re
versed, however faithful the new adminis
tration might be to the Constitution. It is
liard to yield up power, even in a govern
ment towards which the defeated party en
tertains no feeling of hostility; but when, as
in the present instance, the government is
regarded with unmixed hatred, St is diffi
cult to set bounds to the rancor of those
who arc displaced. Look upon the Reign
of Terror now prevailing throughout the
Stales in which the disunion feeling is
deep-seated and of long standing, and an
swer if this be not so.
lIL The ban of Piracy under ithick, the
African Slate Trade rests. The secession--
iats per ee regard Slavery' as of divine au
thority. They believe that if there be no
wrong in supplying their cotton, sugar and
rice plantations with negroes from the
border slaveholding States, there is like-
wise no wrong in seeking the cheaper mar
ket of Congo and Dahomey; and they hold
Hurt the ban of piracy under which trade
with the latter has been placed by the Fed
eral Government, is not only an outrage
upon morality and a standing reproach
against their honor, but a palpable vio
!ation of their God-given rights to make
slaves of the heathen. A Union that puls
a disgrace upou them before the world, and
that compels them ta pay from fifteen hun
dred dollars to two thousand dollars for a
good field hand when they could purchase
the same on the coast of Africa for less
than one hundred, can not be expected to
have a very strong hold upon people who
consider Slavery, as practiced in the Suuth-
cm States, to be a God-ordained instltu-
jy. The Commercial Fottcy of the Oorerr,-
meni. —Manufactures’ cannot flourish in the
presence of Slavery. The institution is
fatal both to the enterprize, intelligence,
and the skill accessary to the successful
prosecution of that branch of industrr.
The South therefore desires free trade.
regards*tho present tariff laws as equally
oppressive with those prohibiting the Afri
can slave trade. In the language of Mr.
Iverson, it demands “ free trade in goods
•‘and free trade in Ijjbor; and if it cannot
•‘ got these things in the Union, it will have
** them out of the Union.*’
V. The Territorial Peliey of the Govern
snt.—ln addition to cheap negroes and
free trade, the South demands Territorial
expansion. It has little hope of securing
any more than it has already obtained, in
lhe Union. The disunionists have lone
looked with covetous eyes upon Mexico,
Central America and the Islands of the
Gull. They regard the Union as a. bar to
their occupancy of these desirable regions.
The establishment of a Siavc Confederacy
on the Gulf ofMexico, lheythink,would re
sult, cither by conquest or peaceable annex
ation, in the absorption of all of the North
American Continent south of our present
boundary, and carry Slavciy to the line ef
the Equator. .
VL Hatred of the Sorth, of it* Idea» and
•f it* Civilization. The slavehoiding class
look upon the people of the free North
with undisguised contempt. The feeling
. is scarcely represented by that entertained
by tlie old Feudal Barons for, their serfs
They regard them not only as their inferi
ors in calling and position, bnt in race
also. And these people whom the Slavery
Propagandists look "down upon with
so much dislike, by their ideas, their
civilization nnd their votes, stand
directly in the pathway of Southern ex
pansion, of cheap negroes and free trade.
They believe in freedom of speech, in free
dom of the Press, and in the natural right
of every man to the undisturbed enjoy
ment of the frnits of his own labor. They
regard Slavery as one of the relics of a bar
barous age, disgraceful to the present era,
and a positive curse to these who ding to
it. All this excites only hatred and a still
deeper contempt on the part of the disu-
nionists. They fret on account of the
bonds which unite them to such a people,
and delude themselves with the belief that
secession would prove a bulwark against
the advance of ideas and the final trinm- h
of justice., • ‘
If this is • what twenty-one of the
Committee of Thirty-three meant when
they declared that the South had cause for
existing dissatisfaction,' then the Republi
cans who voted with the majority did not
sluljfy themselves nor prove recreant to the
principles which they profess.
To Dealers In Salt—Salt Wanted.
. A short time since a company of gentlemen
called at a house In Shawnee County, Kansas,
and asked If they could got dinner. Tho lady
told him that she could give them “ mush and
milk.” Glad to gst that, they began to'-eat,

OCII WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington
Name f «—Adjostmentand Concilia
tion—The Claws of the Tiger— The
Free Navigation of the Mississippi.
[From Our Own Correspondent.]
Waeiiwotok, December 12, 1860.
An old roui suffering from ennui could find
new sensations in this city. We have, Ist, the
Qoottlcbum secession. Blue Cockade
Movement. 3d, the Union-Saving Committee
of 33. 4th, the Financial Panic. sth, the fear
of a Removal of the Capital. The citizens of
this place ore badly scared lost Uncle Sam’s
cow, which they have milked so long, may bo
movod to soma other stable. Menarcso liable
to take their impressions from their surround
ings, that it is not to be wondered that the
faces of Senators and Representatives wear a
sombre and melancholy aspect - The horizon
that bounds the vision seems to embrace tho
world, and here public affairs appear peculiar
ly gloomy, and affectmcmbers accordingly.
The fire-eaters have set about neutralizing
tbc strong local Union feeling that exists here.
They arc proclaiming that if Virginia and
Maryland shall secede and join the Southern
Confederacy, the . Capital of the new uatlou
will be fixed in Washington,and thcaccustom
cd prosperity will continue indefinitely. On
the other hand, they say if eight or ten Slave
I States secede,it will cause the remaining Stales
! to remove the Capital into the interior. Hence
the safety of the populace of Washington is
promoted by taking sides with the Southern
ultralsts. These suggestions are having their
Influence with a people who are in sentiment
pro-slavery. But the mass of the residents are
in favor of preserving the Union as It is, and
are bringing every Influence wit hia their reach
to bear upon the Republican members. M Com
promise” and “Concession” arc dinged into
their cars every boar they are found out of
bed. Nobody thinks of asking the Slave
holders to concede any right or privilege they
have ever enjoyed. It is the Free States that
must give and pay, sacrifice and surrender.-
The privileges of the Slave-holders are sacred
and must not be touched. But the righi* of
of the non-slave-holders are fair and legitimate
plunder for the southern filibusters to seize
and appropriate. The North, like the negro,
has no rights which the lords of the lash are
bound to respect.
From the brief opportunity I have had for
observation, I am inclined to believe that the
Republicans will stand firm, as' they did last
winter.. None of them have betrayed any seri
ous symptoms of weakness or vacillation,
though rumor is busy with the names of sev
eral who are expected to show the whitefeath
er at the derisive moment.'* The present crisis
is deemed by doughfaces and slave-holders as
their golden opportunity to drive a wedge into
the Republican party and split it in twain, os
the Whig party was rent asunder by the Com
promises during Filmore’s administration.
If that powerful organization which has just
triumphed could be demoralized, and its bar
, mouious unity impaired, slave-holders would
have little difficulty in defeating the discordant
northern factions, overcoming each scperatelv,
and vaulting back to the seat of power. Di
vide and conquer, is their maxim. It is their
true policy, but no less that of the Republi
cans to stand firmly together.
The Union-Saving Committee of Thirtv
three was devised and brought forth for the
express purpose of causingdistractionsamono
- Bolder of Virginia moved the
resolution. Some of our side voted against,
and others for it. Republicans who support
ed the resolution did so to prevent the charge
being made of opposing an “adjustment” of
the difficulties, or standing in the wav of a re
moval of the dangers that envirou the Union.
At the same time, there wore not ten Republi
cans iu the Honsc who believed tint any good
would come of it, or who did not aco that the
main purpose of the authors ofthe contrivance
was to embarrass and distract tbc friends of
Mr. Lincoln, by presenting propositions that
Republicans would differ about.
New words have been Invented with which
to bait the trap. In addition to “Compro.
mise,” which means the surrender of Northern
righto, and “Conservatism,” which means
pro-slavery, wc no have added to the
vocabulary, “Adjustment” and “ConcilLi
feiou.” The former has taken the plnee of ;
“Concession,” which was rather too plain,
and not sufficiently hypocritical; and th*-lat
ter supplants “ Compromise,” which I- no
longer available a- a deception. How charm
ing and delicate they sound to the car! Ad
justment! Anything done in pursuance of that
idea must of course be all right. And “ Con
ciliation!”—how patriotic! how Christian!
Like the foec of a tiger, they are soft ami vel
vety to the feel, though concealing sharp and
dangerous claws. No matter what principle
t.ho North !« asked to saerlllcc; prr.viff
cd it is called an “adjustment of difficulties,”
who will object ? No matter what rights arc
basely surrendered if t hey van only be labelled
“ Conciliation,” who will oppose ?
What is there in a name? A great deal,
everything, as our own national history shows.
For example; By the use pfthc word Com
promise, the free-labor interest lost tho Slate
of Missouri. The slave-holders claimed it. Tho
frce-laborers scouted the claim, and repelled
it indignantly. The former threatened to dis
solve the Union. The latter defied them to
try it. Things began to look stormy. Tire
Free States .were resolved to maintain their
righto, and told the slave-holders that bullving
would accomplish nothing. A proposition
was offered to adjust tho difficulty. Let us
compromise aud not fight, said the South*
when they found that threatening to fight did
not scare the North. Very well, sava tiro
North, we are ready to do what is fair and just.
So a Union-Saving Committee was appointed,
who hatched out a “ Compromise,” which
consisted of surrendering to the slave-holders
the very territory in dispute. The North was
pnt off with some chaff, while the slaTe-holil
ers carried off the wheat The free-labor
masses were swindled ont of their Just rights,
and basely betrayed by a portion of their own
Representatives, who ratllled the fraud. But
the rascality had been christened bv
the pleasing name of Compromise, anil
people swallowed the sugar-coated pill.
Schemes for ebealiag and betraving the
North arc now batching and wilt be brought
before the committee of thirty-three under the
soothing names of ” measures of adjustment,”
for the purpose of “ conciliation” and saving
the Union. ” Words rvt re invented toconreaT
ideas,” said a celebrated French diplomatist.
They are certainly employed by pro-slavery
politicians to gain from the North, under false
pretences, what would certainly be refused on
direct application. The people—the real De
mocracy of the country—have to deal with a
crafly, grasping, united, remorseless aristoc
racy, whose Ideas and Interests arc diametri
cally opposed to their own. They are adepts
In the arts of diplomacy. They know when to
bally and when to wheedle ; and acting on tho
theoiy that any leader of the people has his
•price or his vulnerable point, they are not slow
to offer the one or find the other. The most
formidable obstacle in the way of this arisloc
raer, is the Republican organization- They
have never encountered any thing so serious in
their path. In open battle it has badly beaten
them. And if allowed to occnpy the gronnd
from which it has dislodged them, it will take
snch root and gain such foothold that it may
hoid permanent possession of the government
and localize tho dominion of the Slave power,
rendering It subordinate to freedom and com
paratively harmless. Tho Slaveholders will
not surrender the field until they have exhaust
ed the last shot in their magazines.
But I must drop this train of thought, and
add a remark properly; belonging to the first
part of this letter. I referred to the tempta
tion which the fire-eaters are holding out to
the people of this district, in order to lift the
local pressure from their shoulders, which the
•itizens, dreading the removal of the sea tor
Government, are applying. A secession of the
Cotton Slates necessarily places tho month of
the Mississippi in the hands of a “ foreign pow.
er,” which is a thing the Northwestern States
will not tolerate. Kentucky and Missouri
have a deeper interest in preserving the free
navigation of thafnational highway than even
Illinois and lowa Besides, Louisiana conid
not be dragged into secosslon if the up river
trade were to be cut off, which support! New
Orleans and fnmiahes a market for the sugar
planters. The firtseaters now declare that the
free navigation of the Mississippi win not be
Impaired by the formation of a Southern Con.
fedcracy.bnt that trade and commerce wiU be
left as-unimpeded as how. By making this
declaration they calculate to allay the fears of
the Northwest, and attach Missouri and Ken
tucky, as weU as. Louisiana, to their cause.
While Congress-Is amusing the public with
raising UrUm-saving Committees, the fife-
catcre are steadily pushing forward their work
and now openly boaat that by the -Sth of March
they will have seven Cotton States out of the
Union and six more ready to go ont on the
alightsst pretext or provocation. Cmoaoo.

Prime Minister, are selling their property in

A Novel Proposition.
[Corre«poadeace of the Chicago Tribune.]
. , GaLZtßcma, Dec. IS, 1660.
Our eity, In common with every other city
and town in this State, is swarming with, a
class of men who are circulating petitions for
Post Office appointments. In this city there
are some fifteen dr twenty applicants, who
with petition in hand, are not only annoying
their friends, bjifat the same time are making
tbemsehreerinrtremely ridiculous to all sensi
ble persons. And what makes the matter
worse, is that these men are really trying to
play cunning, and get the start of the men
every-way more worthy of sneh appointments,
but whose good sense will not allow them to
put forth theirclalas till the proper time sliall
arrive.
Now, to obviate these troubles, and to put
a stop to small boys and loafers asking men
for their name* on petitions which nobody
wishes to sign, and which if they do sign they
do so only for the purpose of getting rid of
the applicant, would it not bp well for Repub
licans to come out boldly, and say the matter
shall slop here, and that they shall not allow
this trilling to go further. I, for one, say yes,
and I believe the party as a party will respond
to the same sentiment. Republicans, to a large
extent, arc in favor of making the office of
Post Master elective by the people, and as
that is not practicable now,let us corneas
near it as possible. Let the Republicans in I
every city and town throughout the State ap- I
point a judge and clerks, and tlx upon a day to I
vole, say on or after the Ist of Fcbrnaiy, and
let every Republican on that day come up and
vote bis preference for Post Master, without
regard to petitions or applicants; and let the
man having the most votes be considered the
choice, and such man will receive the appoint
ment, and the whole thing will be open and
above board, and no exception con betaken,
and it will receive tho sanction and endorse- I

Extremes Meet,
[Correspondence of the Chicago Trihnnc.]
Enr-ixr, 111., Dec. 12, iss-o.
Two men, starting from the same point, and
travelling in diametrically opposite directions
on the surface of the earth, would meet face
to face after tmdgingalong about 12,000 miles
apiece. William L. Garrison and William L.
Yancey arc somewhat in the same predica
ment, and so are their respective parties, Abo
litionists and Fire-eaters. After singing dis
cords for these many years, they hare at last
struck on a common key and are shouting in
chorus, “We won’t stay in the Union.” There
are several home thrusts in the TuincNc
leader of this momlngln the shapeof queries,
to which queries each party would give the
same answer. “Do the secessionists want to
stay in the Union at any price ?” “Xo !”
would be the exulting answer of Massachu
setts and South Caroliana. “ Can slavery be
abolished by purchase from the Federal Treas
ury?” “Xo! never!” would resound from
the two extremes. Suppose these questions
and answers to be publicly made, ii the sub
ject exhausted? 1 tbiuk not There arc far
lies who have not left each other so far behind
as tliosc enthusiasts have done, and therefore
can Hud some point of union this side of the
antipodes, where. Garrison and Yancey are
hanging heads downward, as seems to our
view. '
"c cannot deal with the fire-eaters. Thev
are like a child ou a parapet—when anythin"-
repulsive to it would startle it backward to
destruction in an instant Can anybody call
them back from the brink they are standing
on? 1 fear not. I fear that thslr poor brains
are sun struck past hope even fromtiie api.li
eation of icc. hut if anybody can, It is the
men of the border slave States, Missouri, Ken
tucky, Tennessee, (perhaps) Virginia and Ma
rymuu. Let us see wherein wc mav meet half
way, or more than half way if mav be the
moderate men of UieseStatcs. Wc have many
things In common with them, not the least
among which is hatred of the Fugitive Slave
law and its operations. Wo hate it because it
is severe, 1 hey because it is Ineffectual. These
seem like “extremes," but 1 believe there is
ground where they can meet. The \ Y

A great deal of misunderstanding exists

of which only five border on the slave states

have acts of the kind in question, while
t«o of them, Illinois and Indiana, cxprc««lv

a state In which a personal liberty law exists
would have to travel the distance of one hun
dred miles from the north line of anv slave
state, in order to reach it from auv cotton
slate, he would be compelled to travel, at
least, five hundred miles. H
Tlie only free states in which acts that can

ted that precisely thesamo provisions arc made
by the slave States themselves, to secure the f
rights of negroes who may be seized or de- I

I Equality In the Territories.
[From the New York Evening Post.]
The concessions which are now demanded
from the North by certain parties are two
viz: that tho statutes of Vermont and other
btatcp, which arc alleged to restrict tho action
o! the Fugitive Slave law, be repealed, and
tliat the decision at the recent election Tip re
versed. so that slavery, may extend itself into
the Territories.
On the former of these points we have
nothing now to add to what we have alrcadv
>aid, unless it be to suggest that the states in
question, after icmovitlg wliatcver there mav
be needlessly opprcsslveor retaliatory in th«*m
If they consent to pass repealing act’s, should
do so on tho condition that they take effect
when the Fugitive Slave law shall be so modi
fied as no longer to shock Lnmauity and insult
northern feeling.
On the second point, however, there is more
to be said.
1 assimr by Hie usual moral, legal, and histo
rical arguments against the extension of slav
ery, we come at oiue to an equitable view of
the question, not olten noticed.- Wc find in
the Compendium of the Last Census of De
Oow, a South Carolina man, the statement
that the total area of the Stales and Territo
ries of this Union is {3.030,100) two million
nine hundred and thirtv-slx thousand one
hundred and sixty-six square miles, and that
ol this area tho slaveholding States occupy
(;S.>l,r>oS) eight hundred and lirtv-oue thousand
live hundred and eight square miles, or almost
exactly twenty-nine per cent, of the whole.
* V £ w » “ 1116 toUl white population of the Uni
ted Slates at this time be twenty-seven mil-
Ixons, and if that of the slaveholding States be
eight millions, those states have twenty-nine
per cent, of the whole population.* It appears
then, that slavery already has all that belongs
to it m this country, and that, if ali the terri
tories of the United States were devoted-to
freedom it would have only Its Just proportion
It Is often urged that the claim of the South
for territory is us good as that of the North,
that we are not to interpose our moral notions
apmst her rights, and that justice demands
that she should have her full share of a com
mon properly. 44 Southern equality” Is the
current phrase which usually covers thisclaim.
lint the South has already the equality she
claims; while the North has not vet taken up
her share of territory and oiganUed it into
Mates, the south has taken up and organized
all that equitably belongs to her. The question
then, practically and legitimately, is one of
northern and not of southern equality.
A view of our past progress confirms this
argument In I,wo, one year after the organi
zation of the federal government, those six
states in the original Thirteen, which are how
slave Mates, had an area of two hundred and
thirteen thousand square miles, with a white
population (according to De Bow) of about a
million and a qnamr: the seven States of the
original thirteen now free States, and an area
of one hundred and twenty-the thousand
square miles, with a white population (accord-
Jpg- to the same authority) pf nearly two mil
lions. Since that time there have been added
to the area of slave States some six Imm red
and forty thousand square miles, while their
white population has increased less than seven
millions: whereas, until the admission of Ore
gon and Minnesota, two or tbiee years back,
the area of the free States had been increased
less than live hundred thousand square miles
while their white population had increased
more than fifteen millions. The admission of
Oregon and Minnesota did something to recti
frUjlslncqnaUlj-, but it is still great Ills
toe Aorta then, that has been treated unjustly
a* less than an equal. Thus far, with an la-
C ti e3^ e n papulation more than double that of
the South, her increase in Territory has. until

Lnitcd States—New Mexico. Utah and the

couth, as we have aeon, with twcntv-nlnc per

mne per cent, of the area. For the North to

SECESSION.
t [From .the London Time*, Nov. M.]
In electing Mr. Lincoln to tbe office of Presi
dent the .Northern United States have ventured
on a bold experiment. They have determined
to test the courage and sincerity of the South,
to face unappaQedthc spectre ofsccessiou, and
discover whether It be really a terrible spirit
potent for evil, or only a bugbear, devised by a
clever faction, Inflated with tbe breath of rho
domontadinj* orators, and dressed out with a
hideous mask by placemen trembling fur their
appointments. The next month or two will
show how £ir those arc in tbe right who* have
calculated on the strength of th« Ajncrican Union
and the supremacy of Sational feeling over all
sectional interests. Should South Carolina
Georgia, and the adjacent StaUs separate them
selves permanently from the Federation, con
stituting themselves a new nation, with their
own army, navy. Customs, foreign representa
tives, and all the appanages of independence,
then the whole scries of. American politicians
will have been in the wrong, and this journal,
which has always declared such an event to be
impossible, wilt have been in the wron- with
them. But Li, after an outburst of party pas
sion, the Southerners themselves become sen
sible of the wickedness and folly of their
course; if they recognize how far the po«3c--
sors and expectants of official places aro the
movers of lias agitation, and if, moreover
they arc calmed by the reflection that a P-c-U
dent, powerful as he is, can do little to alter tfu
IrtiC’j of the Jlqjnhiic, and nothing at all to mk
yert the domestic institutions of the scixral OtnUs,
then the result will be such as we anticipate,
and the United States will continue to combine
