The fundamental basis of the whole structure ,of American civilization is a deop-seatod 41 unconquerable attachmentici'civil and 'glens liberty. 7 his feeling first peopled these' once rude and haboepitatfits shame; this feel-, Mg established our ,eXisting:ferna _of govern- Meet, and has secured its perpetuation to the present day; and in all national emergencies the appeals to this feeling that have, under roper auspices_and at proper times, been made, have ,been answered by action worthy Of a freelatid enlightened' nation. In our fa vored land; efforts-have constantly beedinade tc t render.clvil and religious liberty a living, prettied, unmistakable thing;not merely to be talked about in Fourth-of-July orations; not Merely 'to bo thundered forth in Buncombe tineeches from the stump or in the halls of Congress—but to be actually enjoyed by Ame rican citizens, at'sll thee and under all cir cumstances. Yet, if we look around us at the peculiar aspect of the country, and listen to the loud 'threats whiali find utterance in many portions of--it, we are almost led to doubt 'whether this really, is the Nineteenth cen tury,'lsnd whether a politico-historical picture which would faithfully delineate the current feeling of the times,` wmfid not be more ap plicable toe dark tied barbarous ago than to .an enlightened period like, the present. We 'have the right to vote—to select our rulers by popular suffrage—and no constitutional privi lege, is dearer than this; no privilege is it more necessary to place, -beyond the reach of all improper 'influences, and especially of in thealdation. If the deposits' in oar ballot boxes are to be the expressions, not of those who dii . posit them, but of other men who possess a potent intimidating influence, the quicker they are demollelied the better. The rule of the - mejority, as decided by the result of an election; derives itaeole validity and as sumed sacredness from the presumptionthat it flifiliftll reflection of the popular wishes of a majority of'those who have cast such ballots, ,But . threat Is now heard thundering , in the Senate chamber, in the Rouse % - of Representatives, and in hun dee& of 'presses throughout the country, that if Alio candidate of a certain party is elected President of the United States, with out Waiting tq ascertain what will be the cha racter of his political conduct ; without giving a fair trial to his Administration, the Union will be summarily dissolved I--a throat which alms at controlling, by terrorism, the verdict of the popular tribunal. If intimidating expres sions of this kind are allowed to exercise a paramount inflame, and if men are deterred, in consequence of them, from taking such po litical action as they believe the welfare of their country requires, our whole popular sys tem will be virtually subverted, and our elec tions might as well be held with a military company at each ballot-box, ready to shoot down, every man who did not vote in accord ance with the dictations of its captain, as to submit to such haughty and tyreenical dicta tion. The men who Oils utterance to these thoughts ' aro forever prating of their devotion to the Corptitution of the Mated Slates, stain while they threaten that if a President ohneflous to them is 'elected in pursuance of the' plate previsions of that tnefuntrat, they will not submit to the popular decision. .Now, we are not prepared, by any means, to favor the election of the in dividual or individuals at whom these denim-, eiations are !supposed to be particularly aimed; hut the members of Congress from the North, who have declared that in the event of the constitutional election of any indiejtjapi to the Presidency, whether he Is a special fayor- Ito of the North or of the South, there will not be found anywhere north of Nation and Dix on's line ft corporal's guard to resift his pace fancy of the Presidential chair, have butfaith e rally expressed the sentiments of their cop :fitments. If the benefits to be de k rived from an exercise of the right of suffrage aro to be .0 -diligent merely upon the degree of sp.: provost or disapproval which a few individuals choose to extend to the action of the =dotty of the. Areerlean people, constitutionally ex oressed;lhen of all the forms in the world of selecting rulers, that based upon popular suf. rraflu. 4 l.llll6 'chawieter, is the most absurd ridiculous;ud and the political liberties satich have se long been flip boast of our Country will liana been virtually destroyed. .„„ ties ere there eo many peen . .!:41iYialkei of feeling as In these.which relateCo trade and .tonatnered. As t general rule, the business •nen''of iiinerica,,beth North and South, are mite shrewd enough to manage their affairs 4kllfulty, interference from politicians, Mita witritifeeling of friendship, founded upon nutnal Interest ainrtong Interectirae, has been .stabilaheri. Through their operations the *4:1=91 convenience vt the whole body of the tmerican people ' la' greatly advanced, and material ,wants ministered to. 1 tae all Wier American citizens, merchants have their oolitical opinions; and OM proper occasions in -140 in the luxury of expressing them. They lave, also, their business to. properly manage, and this receives a degree of attention cor. r-ispendleg to their, bnainess talent and tapacity.e It has generally bean supposed 'heretofore, that In the ordinary transac tions of 'life there, was. a broad distluc. iron bet Ween these two spheres of action, Ind that men could buy and sell goods on business principles without being necessa rily obliged to eke opt the bargain one way or the other :by any extra allowance of political doctrine.' It has not been common, et the eloia of an account current, to enter a certain quantum of•Bnehanan Democracy as a charge against a Southern merchant, or of ultra Re publicanism as an item of a bill of goods pur chased by a merchant from the Western Re verse, in Ohio, or from the northern tier of counties InPennsylvania. According to Some oracles, however, the era is approaching when political opinions will become as essential an eleinent of .trade as the articles ordinarily quoted In prick lists, and when a true report of tho market should be as accurate in stating how much per pound Americanians, Republi canism; or Democracy sells for, as in quoting the exact price of cotton, grain, dry goods, or groceries: tfrider this system, when a store is entered by 'e merchant from the South, it will he incumbent upon hint not only to ettataino the quality of the goods ho desires to purchase; not' only to judge of the texture and the price of cloth; the fashion, beauty, and durability of female apparel; the quality of liquore7,but, I as * preliminary to his purchases, he mutt draw forth a political catechism, with a long series 'of' test 'questions, and institute a coin- Oete and accuratoinvestigation into the theo ries and the predilections of the parties from whom he proposes to purchase goods, with a distinct understanding that if an unsound spot is detected on any point, from the Resolutions orinia,.dow : n to the secession doctrines of 1882; the latest resolves of Southern eotumor etal conventions, or the newest platforms issued by fire-eating assemblages, the goods, wares, and merchandise of such po litically unsound individual must ,be sum marily rejected, and en establishment sought out, regardless of expense, where the propri etor, being frilly booked up on all exciting Is sues, Is toned to accord exactly with tto views of his customer. It appears, by repent move ments at Charleston, that oven a lull political uniformity of sentiment is not quite auflicient to answer the demands of that particular sec den', for a mercantile firm in New 'York has been completely tabooed because one of its members was in the habit of attending the church of Hexer WARD BREMER ; so that this addition might not improperly be made to the politico-sneccantjle catechism, and a setts. factory account erected of the religious pro- Allectione of merchants, as well as of [Belt po litical stelnitlea, before their faithful and patel :olle brethren of the South can be expected to 'favor:them' with their patronage. Now, the American people are atradieg people, They love commerce. They are full of enterprise. 'Their industry assumes a diversified character, and buying andaelling is the great business of the lives of a large portion of them. But there is mingled with their devotion to com merce—and there ever will be while they are Worthy of the name of Americans, or of the inheritance of, their latbera—a devotion to the principles of civil and religious liberty, upon which all site beasted material greatness of the country is 'founded. In becoming mer chants, they do not Cease to be Mindful of the welfare of the country, or their duties to their Maker. They are as anxious to secure to the people of the South the full enjoyment of theirjegitintam constitutional rights Wetly, portion of the people of the South themselves cary;.bq i, pat; Unless we greatly mistake the tetAper of, both Southern and Northern mar. chants, the former have entirely too much good sense and liberal feeling to make their business transaction's dependent upon mere transient ebullitions of political feelings and the latter cherish a lively recollectign , of the fact that, notwithstanding their engagement in trade,"tlioy enjoy the immunities, and should discharge the duties, of patriotic American citizens, by taking such action in.all political emergencies as they believe the true welfare and honor of the country require. When wo look abroad over the Union, and see not only the disorganized condition of the Rouse of Representatives, but the repeated throats of the dissolution of the Union in cer tain contingencies, the action of some of the Southern Legislatures to arm their respective States, a secession commissioner sent from South Carolina declaiming in the legislative hall at Richmond, .and a wide-spread excite- unlit prevailing throughout the country,we can- not be blind to the threatening character of these events, nor unmindful that a deep gloom per vades the national atmosphere; but, at the same time, we see no reason to doubt that these clouds will' be dispelled at no distant day. The patriotism, intelligence, and virtue of the Attie rican people will find a corrective for present as they have in former times for past evils. The extreme .measures of intimidation, the resorts to personal violence, and the delibe rate avowals of traitorous end secession senti ments, will inflict more permanent harin upon their authors than upon any other persons. Those concerned in' efforts to destroy this Republic might as well bay the moon as to persevere in their-traitorous designs, and here after they will:find their appropriate reward le a rich harvest of Infamy and disgrace. Tho great body of the conservative citizens of our country, North and Smith, will stand firm by the Union and its constitutional guarantees, and those will suffer most who make them selves ridiculous by a cowardly submission to tyrannical threats, and those who are foolish enough to utter' hem. ' Gas and Gas-meters, A correspondent ofone °fele Sunday papers repeats the suggestion which wo made, over a year ago, that the Legislature should appoint a Gas-meter liispector,la stand between the public and the gas company. In New York, not long ago, complaints wore made against the two gas companies of that city, that more gas was charged for than was consumed. Many persons, who had gas pipes In their houses, did not use gas at all, but burnt campheno or oil, and yet were charged as if the§ bad been burning gas all the time. On complaint, the gas company declared, first, that it was im possible for thein:to have made a mistake; and next, when the parties put in affidavits of the fact, that, if the error was committed, « there waa,something wrong with the meter." Such explanations were doomed so unsatis factory that a confederacy of gas consumers was organized h 1857, which applied to the Legislature of Now York, and. after much op position—for the gas companies' stock-hold ers had money and influence—succeeded in obtaining the creation of a State officer, whose business It is to inspect the motors, once a year, or when called upon, and test their accuracy as •to the regiatrapon of the gas consumed. It strikes us that gas comp ; nies, who must be perpetually annoyed by complaints of overcharges, - ought to bo as anxious a; gas consumers to have a responsi ble officer appointed i,y tale State, who would always be at hand to examine the nwters. This would save a world of trouble. The weather has such a tendency to affect, Impede, and mu ter the action of meters, that the dry meter should unlyeguilly be used. Fa New York, the Manhattui Gas Compass/ issue dpy vp!ors to all consumers who desire to use them. 'The water meters are liable to be frozen up, which oitep pgia tteip out of repair, but the dry meters are unaffected by any change pf weather or temperature. In this city the water motera are used; they have the disadyardago of being far Mess in re gistration of Op roanqty of gas consumed than the dry meters are, At the slow rate of procedure In tht; eV, when an evil is to be remedied, we may look for a State Gaameter Inspector somewhere ttbont the year 1870.

An eroellent English Opera Company drew large audiences to Walnobetreet Theatre, and made each a favorable impression that, in all probability, they will pay a rnuoh longer visit, ere long.

Letter from " Occasional." Correspondence of The Press.] Since the adjournment of the House, after the exciting nod intereating scene on Friday afternoon and evening, there bat been an amount of oftneue ing and canvassing, which pronalees to end in a epeedy organization, The hotels and private rooms of the members are bury with motet, of preparation. Everybody will be leafletted when the long and tedious struggle is over. The mo ment an organisation is effeeted;upon whatever basis, other banes will Spring up, and other dis cussions will take the piece of that which hex so long vexed the public counolle. The Administra tion will make nothing by any movement. If they should be 'able to combine upon Mr. Smith, of North Carolina, they will find themselves In a minority on all measures affecting their general policy, and espenially in regard to forthcoming investigations. Mr. Smith, from what I can hear of him, made such a record in his canvass for Con grese es to render it wholly impossible for him to west in eogering up the Taring questionable operations of Mr. Buchanan and his Cabinet.

Miramon, whom our Government hes refused to recognise as the President of Mexico, continues hie career of via tory over the Liberals. It la not the design of the Admielstration to precipitate hostilities with Mex. leo nt the expense of difficulties with foreign Pow ers; but if an arrangement 01111 be Made, by which England and France will leave the case to the United States, we shall then see molt au ad juetment of Mexican affairs an the suffering people of that fine country have long desired. There is no evading the high duty whieh demands our ste lion in reference to Mexico. Every interest will conspire to compel prompt and vigorous action. A large part of our Texan frontier is blazing with conflagrations, while the manner in which our cal nail's are (potted, and our commerce impeded, fur niebee ap addittianal rens, for the strongest reme dial tooasares. It given me groat pleasure to say that, so far as the Mexican pestion is eoneerned, the coupe of the Administration le highly credit able and patriotic. Mr. Buchanan is the only President of the United States who baa undertaken to parcel out the pro ee4i of the pane printing among the newspapers that support his Onjoietration. No other Exelau tire has ever ventured upon this 4segprous ex periment. Tho profits of the printing are sup posed to be so large, that it is not surprising that the mouths of the different newspaper men through ,a3t the country, ehould water when they are re. tarred to, and OM president, in attempting to distribute them according to *own wishes, has got himself into more than a peck of troubles. I euspeet it will appear that, through Mr. Wendell opt) others, he hes canoed to be paid out large StIM! to cacti jounikip as ppdertook the ruinous muse of supporting his keeorepten end other coneletenotee and prosariptions. °c.c.s sumac,.
