This is the only month in the year in which we favor our subscribers and patrons generally with a dun, making shift the rest of the year as best we can. For some years our receipts at this season have fal len off v ith rather an increase in business, a fact for which we can account in no other way than that many suppose as we succeed ed in paying off our indebted <ess on the property occupied as a dwelling an ' ffice we no longer need money! In order t ♦ do away with this impression, we beg leave to state that being unable to build a new office, we have purchased the house adjoin ing our dwelling for a printing office (into which we purpose removing in a few weeks,) and have gone into debt tor it —so that those who owe us, either for subscrip tion, advertising or job work, can lay aside the notion imbedded in their noddles THAT A\E JO NOT NEED MONEY, and give us a call at their earliest convenience. There are some who have been owing us too long, but as we have made ample al lowance for hard times and other excuses, | these need not be surprised if they do not . receive the Gazette after April court. • DEMOCRACY ?—On Saturday evening, under a call for a democratic meeting, the faithful assembled at the Town Hall for the purpose of nominating a borough tick et. for the first time within our recollection the event was ''sanctified'' ('we presume the word is appropriate) by a speech from , the Hon. E. Hanks on .flairs.— The ex-Auditor General, after charging ev erything [now going on in the South to the Republicans, took the ground if Lincoln's administration would undertake to "coerce" the South—that is, execute the laws or protect public property by force—and war : ensue, many volunteers from the north ! would refuse to bear arms, as well as many democrats—in short, Mr. Ranks, if correct ly reported, endeavored to make it appear that hardly one-half of the northern peo ple would rally in support of " The Union, the Constitution, and the Enforcement of the I*aws. In this we believe Mr. Ranks is mistaken. While nine-tenths of all classes would regret war, yet should J effer- ; son Davis and his Hencdict Arnold breth- : rcn carry out their threats of using cold steel, " cowboys" in the north will be few and far -belweeu, or should they present an : open traitorism a few examples of a rope • and tree will so en oeui their sympathy for traitors and traitorous Acts. In justice to Douglas democrats ie this county we must say we do not kuow of a single one who palliates, connives at, -ar in any way sup ports, the foul treason that threatens the overthrow of the best government ever in stituted to make a people happy and con tented. That Hartford Convention feder alism rests exclusively, wherever it is found, with the supporters of Breckinridge ■and Lane. •PERTINENT QUESTIONS. "I. If the Repuirlie&ns are to blame for the secession movement, who was to blame for the secession from the National Democrat ic Convention ? " 11. If the Republicans are to bhuue for keeping up tho present crisie by their un willingness to compromise (which means con cession) for the sake of the L nion, why dido't the Douglas democrats make concessions in the National Convention for the sake of the union of the Democratic party. 111. Why didn t the Democratic partv let the nigger question alone (on which it split), and sacrifice their principles for the sake of the I nion, when they knew perf ctly well that the separation would cause their defeat ? "IV. $f llie South would not accept popu lar sovereignty as a compromise the Na tional Democratic Conventian, w j they accept it now *" The Cabinet—Hon. Simon Cameron. President Lincoln's Cabinet, as confirm ed by the Senate, is as follows: Secretary of State —Win. H. Seward, of N. V. Secretory of Treaaunr—Salmon P. Chase, of mto. . Secretary of War—Simon Cameron, of PeniK*. I Secretary of Nary—Gideon Welles, of Conn. Postmaster GeneraJ—Montgomery Biair ol Md. Attorney General —Edward Bates, of Missouri. Serretorr of Interior —Caleb B. Smith, of Indiana. They were unanimously confirmed, ex cept Messrs. Blair and Bates, against whom four or five Southern Senators voted, be cause they reside in Slave States. The battle for Cabinet appointments has ended, says the Ilarrisburg Telegraph, and the dust of the contest having cleared away, wc find looming up into that promi nence so richly deserved, Hon. Simon Camerou, who, when he first cauie to Ilar risburg thirty years ago, toiled as a poor printer boy at ten dollars a month. What a silent commentary upou the well regula ted institutions of this tjur free and noble country, and also what a lesson it is to the poor boy- of this country, to study and profit by. Born of humble parentage, schooled by the cold and uncharitable world, he began his course —by a perseve ance and indomitable will overcoming all obstacles, lie slowly but surely started on his glorious career, first a compositor, sec ond an editor, and third as a United States Senator. In the last named position he nobly battled for the rights of his native State, Pennysylvania, rebuking the treach erous conduct of George M. Pallas, at which time he asserted that he would la bor during his senatorial career tore-estab lish the revenue or tariff law, and when that was done, he was willing to retire from the Senate. Mainly through his ef forts that has been accomplished, and but a few days since was signed by the Presi dent. Had that not been the case he nev er would have accepted the Pepartment of War. But now that the tariff being, or about to be, in lull force and operation, it matters little to him who holds the portfo lio of the Treasury, as now, as always was, his highest (and it is a noble) ambition is to serve the interests of the old Keystone State. The Effect of Non-Coercion- The State of Louisiana haa taken pos- ' session of the Custom House building, and allows the Government to ruu the mails in the State. It has also seized the bullion ; of the Government in the Sub-Treasury, and has returned drafts on that bullion protested, which were given to the build ers of the Custom House for their pay, and to the contractors for carrying the mail. Thus it refuses to allow the Govern ment to pay for work done on the Custom House with its own money, which the State now claims as its own property, and for the carrying of the mails within the ! ~. . ; State. The course of the Secessionists is ! disgusting every honest man, as well as ev- ' fc.y patriot, and must ultimately cause dis satisfaction at home. The amount of these drafts facts staring them in the face, we have patent democrats here and elsewhere who "ay the U. S. Government must submit to such piratical outrages for fear somebody will get hurt! The Inaugural Address of President ; Lincoln has elicited any number of com ments from the press. The locofoco dem- ; ocracy can see nothing in it but a common stump speech, or call it a wishy-washy af- ! fair without meaning—the modern demo crats say it is a fair production, more mod erate than they expected, and to the point I —the secessionists swear it means war to ; the knife —while sensible people generally ! who have carefully read it, not only declare its tone peaceful, but from the fact that ho at once grapples with the troubles in which the country is involved, and makes no fulsome promises of his future course, concede that few men living could have done better. As most of them have pub lished the document the people enn read and judge for themselves ho;v far partisan editors have endeavored to pervert its lan guage. Ou the score of peaceful inten tions we think that Mr. I>ouglas's remarks, given in another colu. .n, are not far from a true interpretation. Virginia. —Four reports from the commit tee on Federal Relations, in the Virginia Convention, were submitted on Saturday.— The majority report recommends, in part, a conference of the Border States and opposes coercion. One minority report gives a list of the demands of the South, and requests the States to give answer by October next, and meantime preserve the peace. Another re commends the passage of an act of secession, and the last declares that the Government must immediately give the Southern people a full constitutional assurance of their safety in the Union, and is for the appointment of -Commissioners to .proceed to Montgomery. flay-It has been recently discovered in Ha bersham county, Georgia, that a woman, held hi slavery for twenty years, is white, having been kidnapped when a child from Baltimore, Md. Well, what of it? The patent Chris tians tell us that slavery is right, and if so, why not extend its " benefits" to this woman as well as some of the preachers who advocate thf> doctrine? Effects of Secession. . i letter from Judye Lyon, of South Carolina, to a Friend in Texas. The following letter from Judge Robert Lyon, of Abbeville Court House, South Carolina, published in the Waco (Texas) Gazette, speaks for itself: ABBEVII.LE C. 11., Thursday. Jan. *24, 1861. Dear Sir :—l desire you to procure for me i and send by mail, a Texas Almanac. Six . months since I felt perfectly willing to re main here in South Carolina ; but I can re main here no longer. At the election of Lin 5 coin we all felt that we must resist. In this j move I placed myself amongst the foremost, and am yet determined to resist him to the 1 bitter end. 1 had my misgivings at first of the idea of separate secession, but thought it would be but a short time, and at small cost. 1 In this matter, together with thousands of - other Carolinians, we have been mistake*.— Everything is in the wildest commotion. My bottom land on Long Crane, for which I could t have gotten 830 per acre, I now cannot sell at !' any price. All our young men nearly arc in and around Charleston. Thither we have sent many hundreds of our negroes (I have ; sent twenty) to work. Crops were very short I last year, and it does now seem that nothing will be planted this coming season. f All are excited to the highest pitch, and . not a thought of the future is taken. Mes- I sengers are running here and there, with and without Governor's orders. We hare no mon- I ey. A forced tax is levied upon every man. I have furnished the last surplus dollar I have. I had about 827,000 in bank. I first gave a i check for ten thousand, then five thousand, ; then the remainder. It is now estimated that we are spending $25,000 per day, and no prospect of getting over these times. It was our full understanding when we went out of the Union that we would have a new Govern ment of all the Southern States. Our object was to bring about a collision with the au i thorities at Washington, which all thought would make all join us. Although we have | sought such collision in every way, we have not yet got a tight, and the prospect is very ' distant. I want the Almanac in order to see from it what part of Texas may suit me. I want to raise cotton principally, but must raise corn to do me. 1 will need about a thousand acres of good land. My force is increasing; many young negroes are coming on. I can send to the field sixty five, big and little. I shall make no crop here this year. I shall start my negroes from here to John Brownlee, at Sbreveport, about the first of April. I will leave my lands here to grow up in pines.— When we all get to Shreveport, John Brown lee says he will go with me all over Texas.— I canuot live here and must get away. Many are leaving now; at least ten thousand negroes have left already, and before long one-third of the wealth of South Carolina will be in the West. I desire you to look around and help mo get a home. As ever, yours, ROBERT Lvo.v. It appears frotn this that South Carolina is "shearing" its citizens to some purpose; if the Judge goes to Texas the land pirates there will probably take his hide and tal low. A Southern gentleman who resides in Augusta, Georgia, writes thus: "If the South were merely let alone for six months, wp would probably try at the next general election to get back. The new tariff will open both eyes and pockets ; 3 to 4 cents per pound on cheese, 4 to 5 cents on butter, 2 to 2} on sugar, 2i to 25 cents on to bacco, affect every one, and that sensibly.— : Prices have advanced and are still ascending. ; Our regular army has 140 enlisted in this 1 city, and as many in Savannah, Nine-tenths ! of the youth go constantly armed, and the common use of deadly weapons is quite dis regarded. No control can be exercised over a lad after he is fourteen or fifteen. lie be comes Mr. So and So and acknowledges no j master. While our free trade doubles our tariff, our postal facilities will also be increas ed. Letter postage will probably be raised to ten and twenty-five cents, and off the im mediate line of railways there will probably be as much as one mail a week. Of course, therefore, we will like Secession the better as j we become the better acquainted with it." The Administration and the Relief of Fort Sumter. WASHINGTON, March 10, 1861. The Cabinet meeting called suddenly last night and continued until a late hour, produced quite a sensation throughout the ! city. Intelligence was received here last evening at the War Department that Major Anderson was without fuel, and had only about fifteen days' supply of provisions. The President deemed this information of suffi , cient importance to require immediate consul- I tation with his ministerial advisers, hence the Cabinet meeting. The whole subject was freely discussed. It appears that the actual condition of Fort j Sumter is much worse than was represented by the recent Administration. The question discussed and to be settled by Mr. Lincoln and his advisers is whether Sumter can be reinforced, and if so, what it will cost, and thirdly, what value will it be to the sevice af-1 ! ter it" is reinforced? These queries are met I thus :—At the time South Carolina passed ' her secession ordinance, Fort Sumter could | aud should have been reinforced. Mr. Buch anan neglected to do so: secondly, to supply Fort Sumte- with men and provisions now would require ten thousand men at least, and i more naval ships than can be brought into immediate requisition, a large expenditure of treasure, a great sacrifice of life, and the in ition of eivil war ; thirdly, would the Admin istration be justified in making such reinforce . j ment at such price in view of the fact that such a terrible condition of affairs at Sumter is only an entailment of the Buchanan Ad -1 ministration upon the present, and not pro duced by any act of the party now in power, f but against its well known policy, especially ; inasmuch as Sumter would be of no value ' whatever to the Government in the present 1 condition of affairs if it is reinforced. B@„We have a report of a terrible murder ; committed in Juniata County by two or three ; men, who shot Henry Acker in his house for r the purpose of robbery, but obtained only a f few dollars. The parties were arrested at McAllistersville, and lodged in jail, i BSATbe Charleston Mercury walks into Mr. Holt, late Secretary of War under Mr. 1 Buchanan, as follows: "Holt does not de > serve the honor of an assassination. But he is a marked man. If ever he venture* with in the confines of the Confederate States, he 1 will never return to practice coercion -again. The breed of such traitors cannot be j>e?pet uated among us." Terns. —Dispatches from Army officers in Texas state that the treachery ofGen.'l'wiggs has demoralized the I'nited States forces in that State, and that Col. Waite bad endeav ored in vain to reorganize and concentrate thera. Much of the Government property seized by the State authorities had been car ried off by various parties. The troops were without adequate supplies. Capt. Hill was still at Fort Brown, and a collision was an ticipated The Wonders of fh- MiercnfojH. —We understand ills through the agen v of thi* marvel viewing instru ment that Ir.
