The Cause and the Remedy.
If it atlord them any comfort or con
so'ntion, iv o are perfectly satisfied that
n. .. 1 .,i...M

t.nuo its false cturges .gainst tho Democ nd i0,t repeated warnings or Democrat o nd equality would thrust bo
rncynahuving been the cause of tho prcs-1 ,l)Cakpr8 M"0 "' ""tors, aro fully , loro ug To utter the feolmgs which actu
ent'distuibmice in tho South. What a f realized in a torn and dismembered Ko-'t0 us, would be to arraign tho faithful-
wUerubly contemptible subterfuge is it
for them to say now, that because the
Pemocrala threatened, Hint if tho ptoplo'8ayr " 111 UieV BUU c,y oul u'l luer8 "
would elect Lincoln tho Union ivouid be
dissolved, and that Lincoln being now
eleod, tuo Union must bo diLved '
fntrely to make their irords good.
It is rather remarkable that these gen
tlemen would o en give the Democracy
credit for having some regard for their
veracity.
Rut tho plea is a false as it is shallow
and contemptible. For nioro than ton
years the Democracy have been M Union
party in the North, and their presse and
orators have djinred no pains in their ef
forts to show to the people of the North,
that if the aggrehive measures concocted
in the hot-bed of Abolitionism in Massa
chusetts, n cro sanctioned by tho voice of
public opinion in such a manner as we i
now witnes in the election of Lincoln
the South?rn heart would not submit, and
as a consequence, secession and disso!u
tion must follow. This was tho warning
given to the country by the Democratic
orators, and presses, and statesmen. The
rame sentiments wero uttered, and the
samo warnings given in every page, and
from every stump, from Ma son A Dixon's
lino to tho Aroostook. Our Eepublican
friends cannot deny this. They know it
is true. And they also know, that while
they were ridiculing the Democracy for
thus trying to "save the Union, " as they
sneeringly called it, their black Republic
can legislatures of more than half tho free
States were passing laws nullifying one of
tho pluineH and simplest provisions of
tho National Compact. And these things
our Republican friends know to be true
nrr dare they deny them.
Put what is the present condition of
our country, and what tho romedy ?
That secession is the order of tho day a
fixed fact in ot least five of tho States of
the Union, is beyond dispute. Are thoy
in earnest? Or are they doing all this
"merely to make their words good?" Are
they sincere in desiring a seperation and
the formation of a Southern Confederacy ?
Wo hope wo willnotbo charged with a
wish to frighten enybidy, when we say
that we believe no peoplo were ever more
in earnest in any enterpriso they ever un
dertook. There are many mon in the
South who sincerely desire a dissolution.
They believe they could prosper letter if
seperated from us, than they can in con
nexion with us. But this is only the case
with comparatively hut fow of them ; for
the masses of (be people there, as in the
North, can see no future for either section :
on tiie other side of a dissolution and
are therefore willing to submit to any sac
rifice, except that of dishonor, to preserve
tho Union.
If there is any meaning in tho expres
sion of public opinion, in tho recent elec
tion of Lincoln, it is, that a Southern man
OA-ning slaves, has not an equal right with
the Northern man, in the Territories the1
"common property" of a common Gov
ernment. The Southern States aro thus
put upon an inequality with the North, and
to which inequality every Southern man
will say ho cannot submit without dis
honor. Bosides this, some ten ora dozen North
ern Slates havo passed laws nullifying, to
some extent at least, that provision of the
Constitution requiring the rendition of
fugitive slaves. This, every man in tho
South believes to be a breach of tho Na
tional Compact, and that if the North, be
ing the greater party, is permitted to evade
and violate the provisions of the Constitu
tion in one iiutance, to suit its conveni
ences or caprices, it is natural to suppose
that it will do i j in others, and, there
fore, there is no safety in living with a
Toople who are unfaithful to their soloran
contracts.
Our readers can now see with what
power the secessionists can appeal to their
fellow citisens of the South. They regret
that it is so, We think thcro is no hope for
them out of tho Union, and that dis
union would bo alike destructive to both
sections, to say nothing of the bloody and
destructive wars lhat must he the conse
quence. We think their only hope is in
the Union-that tho present triumph cf

But she did not stay out. Money was the

Two extrome parties are constantly on

In several of tho northern States the no-
gro is allowed to vote; the Constitution of
New York allows them to vote upon a
property qualification. This qualification
has always been looked upon by that
school of politicians headed by Horace
Greeley and Thurlow "Weed, as wrong
and oppressive. T-vo successive Legisla
tures in that State voted down this clause
in tho Constitution, and passed an act
submitting that clause to a vote of the

in fact be saying to the South "Wo do
this to conciliate you until we get full
possession of tho general rovernment.
We can afford to let this go that wo may
get the other We surrender the leu that wo
may securely grasp thegreatcr."
Our country has never passed through
so be vote an experience as this in which
we are now involved ; and we have no pre
cedent, no light, no guide, by which to aid
us in the solution of on apparently inex
tricable, complications of antagonisms.
We talk of tho value of the Union, and
understand something about it ; but who
can appraise it ? There are said to be
eight hundred millions of dollars worth of
slave property in the southern States.
Is the Union worth more than this? Yes,
infinitely more ; and could wo approach
the Southern mind with a proposition
to sacrifice the Union at any pecuniary
equivalent, wo ahould be repelled with
disdain, Tho South would sacrifice the
Union at no price, were tho Union what
it was designed to be under the Constitu
tion. But we only offend Southern eenti
mer.t when we urge tho value of a Union
upon their consideration in which their
rights and equality aro not rospeotcd.
It iB, therfore, rights. and equality, honor
and self-respect, which the South Inlds
above price above the value of a politi
cal Union, Now, in such a juncture of
affairs as we are perplexed with by the
triumph of sectionalism, what can any
man propose?
We pause and think, as we have re
peatedly done since the election of Mr.
Lincoln, and, after the most careful con
sideration of the issues before us in the
various phases which they assume, we are
utterly at a loss for a -ingle suggestion
towards tho practical result which we all
demre. We all wiuh that the Union shall
be preserved intact, ye., to projiose so
desirable a result, hut can we say to
the South ? Is there one of our rend
ers who can meet this exigency wifh a
rational, reliable, or plausible proposition :
If so, let hitu come in to the columns of
the Sun and do so. Can any man si' down
to write upon thi subject wita a sincere
patriotism and a sincere retpect for the
rights and equality ot the States actuating
him . and he will presently tind I ho lusu
perablo difficulties of the tank. We have
read pretty much everything that ap
oears in the cotomnorarv tires, hero And
i 1 i
elsewhere, and find all the voluminous la
bor flat, stale and unprofitable. " We
think, says one ; "e believe, savs
another; "Wait," says a third; "The
Union, " says a fourth ; but not one feasi
ble, rational consistent, practical tsenti
ment to be found. In tho meantime the
work of secession goes on, prepares for a
demonstration, and hastens lo a conclu
sion. And its peoplo have us all at a diss
advantage, because we can oppose no rea
sonable, convincing constitutional argu
ment ncrinst it.
In this conjuncture " we think " the
only suggestion with promise, and that a
meagre one, is a convention of the south
ern States. Out of this there may pro
ceea some good thing somo counsels
some proposition, some valid unity or spir-
it oi sentiment, nuicn snail serve as a
bond of harmony and strength. We can
: hope in this alone us & sufficient securitv
and inducement for the Southern tier of
States lo remain in the Union under tho
a.lministation of Mr. Liucoln. And even
with this there must be submission to
precedent violative of constitutional right

I It is, perhaps, the door of Hope, and tho

of future agitation on tho subject of slav
ery forever removed.
Fall or Wheat, Flour, Ac, Wheat has
fallon five cor.ts, and flour twenty cents,
on hist week's prices. All this for elec
ting Lincoln. Even the Republican pa
pers begin to acknowledge the coming
storm. The 'orr says, "it becomes us all
to nrrve ourselves or the occasion." The
TYibune, alluding to tho withdrawal of
southorn cotton, stya :
"Of course our city must feel this not
her banks only, but her merchants and
manufacturers. The failure to pay not
only deprives them of money that they
confidently expected and sorely need; it
necessarily destroys their confidence in
their customers, and prevents their sel
ling those customers more goods on cred
it. We shall all feel this during the win
ter close upon us ; shall we not also com
prehend and profit by it?
We do not know how much further
the present panio may go probably
quite a stretch. When property that ev
ery body knows to be worth a dollar is
hurlod on tha market and told for seventy-five
cents, we know no reason wby it
should stop at that point rather than run
down to sixty or fifty cents. Panics are
self aggravating the naked fact that a se
curity or other valuable is sold far below
its known worth tends to sink it still low
er." These are, no doubt, reluctant admis
sions, but they show that the ''Republi
cans" themselves begin to comprehend
tho dangnr resulting from the election of

The population in the tame counties in
1840 was 908,744, and the increase from
1840 to 1850, was 311,309, these showing
that the increase fiom 1850 to 1860, is
20.791 greater, than it was from 1340 to
1850. This is indeed gratifying.
. The deaths in the same counties in
1850 were 17,729, and in 1860, 16,172 ; be.
ing 1,557 less in 1800, than they were in
1850, notwithstanding the additional in
crease of 338,100 in the population.
The aggregate increase of the popular
tion is about 27 J per cent. This is how
ever far exceeded by Carbon, Philadel
phia, Schuylkill and Wayne ; while Ad
ams, Franklin, Torry, and several other
counties fall far below this. The Increase
in Berks is 16,814, or about 22 per cent;
in Lancaster 17,389, or about 174; per
cent.

ine excitement in the South, winch a
f jw weeks ago seemed to Le confined to
but a few States is spreading rapialy
throughout the South generally. It is
not confined to the politicians alone ; but
sovcral of tho religious denominations are
moving in this matter, especially the.
Baptists. The Baptist State Convention
of Alabama met on the 13th Instant, and
resolved unanimously in favor of disus
nion. They tent their resolution to the
Governor of the State, who pronounces it
the most important disunion movement
yet made in Alubama.
Wo learn by the New York Herald, of
Saturday that steady Virginia is moving
in the matter. The Herald says :
Tho course of Gov. Letcher in culline
an extra session of the Legislature hai giv
en general sutisiaution. tits recomuien
dations, no doubt, tvd be marked by wis
dom, prudence, statesmanship. These are
q'ialiii8 which peculiarly distinguish him.

flicts, which isau altitude well befittini;

This will tell by and by, when tho as
sumes tho office of mediator.
The Legi.iluturo is eminently conserva
tive. It will be composed of the same
men who declined the invitation of South
Carolina and Missisippi last winter lo
unite in a. Southern confederacy. Every
effort will bo made in behalf of pence ; and
it would bo well if tho North would' meet
lrginni half way, for a failure in this ef-
tort will involve thorough disunion.

Colntv On Wednesday night, the 7th
inst., the residence of Mr. Jacob Heck
man, an old resident of Penn tp., in this
county, was entered by seven men and
robbed of $1,500 in g0j. The robbers
were disguised in various ways, and to
this timo they havo not been detected,
or any trace of them fonnd. They broke
npon tho outside door with a post 'and on-
... i.i. . . i - . . .,
lereii inerooiu wnere Jir. uentzel (son-in-law
of .Vr. Heckmau,) and his wife were
sleoping down ttoir. Mr. Gentzel jumped
from hiabod and commenced dressine him
self when two of the men presenting pistols
oonimauuea uiru not to move. Others
went, up stairs and held Mr. Heckmau,
similarly i;i terrorcm, while somo of the
party got the money. Immediately on en-
lemig iuu nouse, ino roooerg atJJCK a
light ana proceeded coolly and boldly to
commit their midnight deed. This is
ccrtaily one of the most flagrant violations
of law, and the safoty of society we have
heard of in many a day. It is almost iiir
credible to think that such a deed could
bo committed in Ceutre county, or that
demons so black hoarteJ could move
among us. It a is warring to those who
have accumulated by honest industry, o
sum of money, not to hoard it in their
houses, instead of availiug themselves of
prou table investments.
A gun and an axo bad been carefully
removed from tho house, as a matter ol
precaution, doubtloss pieporatory to com
muting me ueea, ana were louna some
where an the promises the next dav.
Who tho perpotrators are, or from whence
they time, is a matter open for conject
ure. From the circumstances in connec
tion with the case, it is evident that the
persons engaged in the robbery, were not
only tamiliarwiiu the house, but well a
ware of the exact locality in which the
old gentleman kept his money. We hope
that a etnet vigilance may he exercised by
every honest man in the community to
ferret out the offendets and bring them to
justice, it is scarcely possible that seven
armed men, entirely strangers in the
community, would so mysteiiously make
their appearance, perpetrate a deed of
this character, and escape without detec
tion. Belief ontt Watchman.
