FRIDAY, FEBRUARY• IQ, 1860, Who Has the Hey of the Beattie? A French journal announces that the widow of M. Santerro, 'who distinguished himself when the Bastile was taken, is 'now alive in Paris. Moreover, that she possesses the Key of that exectable prison fortress. This will be news, in this country, where the veritable Key, there is every reason to believe, has long been a sort of National heir-loom, having boon pre sented to Washington• by Lafayette. The widow Santerro may have retained one of the Motile Keys, but the Key of the principal portal was undoubtedly sent to this country, where it may be seen hanging up In ono of the rooms of Mount Vernon. In Mr. Benson Leasing's ic Monnt,Vernon and its Asaociatione," an engraving of the Key is given, with a statement of its presentation to and reception by Washington: We' take the facto from this yellow.' In 1790, the seat of the Federal Government was removed from New York to Philadelphia, and Congress ad journed on the 12th of August. Eighteen days i#43r, Pr ! sidep / k Washington' and fkrally red#4,o,k,..tojtli on his "return t 4 . 9 1 4 1 t: - 1 00 Ptin.grCeli't 4 1 ; *rind; Hr.:-Loiefrig says 4 . ‘ Washington re ceived a, corkesa present, which he • cue tied with him to Mount Vernon. It was the Key of the Bastile, that old state prison of France, which had become a strong arm of despotism." on the 18th January, 1789, the Parisians fornled themselves into a National Guard, ,and chose Lafayette as their commander. Next day they assembled en more before the Bastile, which was sup posed to be impregnable, made a broach in the walls, seized and killed the governor and other officers, and the great iron key of the Bastile was carried to the Hotel de Yale, or town Hall." Tho National Assembly, con firming whit the people had done, unani mously elected Lafayette commander-in-chief of the National Guard of France, a corps of more than four'millions of armed citizens. The key of the Castile was placed in the hands of Lafayette, and in March following he sent it to Thomas Paine, then in London, to be forwarded as a present to Washington, togethei with a drawing, in pencil, (a copy of which Mr. Loosing gives in his book,) repre senting the destruction of the prison. 'lbis also remains at Mount Vernon. Lafayette sent a letter with these gifts, in which he said : "Give me leave, my dear General, to present you with a picture of the Bastile, just as it looked a few days after I order ed. its demolition, tCith the main key of the fortress of despotism." Thomas Paine re: talned the two gifts for a considerable time, probably awaiting a safe opportunity of send: log them to Washington, and allowed no draw ing tote made of the key, though it was often requested, correctly thinking that there was a propriety that it first should be presented. But, he added, "Mr. Vest wishes Mr.,Trumbull to make a painting of the presentation" to Wash ington. The letter from Lafayette was dulyic: knowledged by Washington. Mr. Losing adds, what every person may see at this day— and for all future time, now that Mount Ver non has become National property—“ The Key of the Beattie, and the .drawing repro. minting the demolition of, the .fortress, are at Mount Vernon. The former is preserved in a glass case, and the latter hangs near it, in i the same relative position in which they were I originally placed, in the • great passage of the mansion." There cannot be the shadow of a doubt that what Laßtyette presented to Virashlngton'waS (to use his.own words) it the main' key Of tho -fortress of despotieru.'' • • years old, and his kindness to his own work mon, as well as his having given away nearly $60,000 of meat and rico to the poor of the Faubourg St. Antoine, in famine time, made him very popular in that district, where his brewery stood. No man behaved more •geR tautly at the storming of the 'Basilic, anti it was he who saved the Bibliotheque du Rol (ono of the finest public libraries, in Eu rope) from being destroyed by the 'mob. From his stature, ho was called the Ajax of the Parisian meb, and ho exorcised his im mense personal strength to some purpose, in Juno, 1792, (when he was commander of the National Gnard,) by thrusting the populace out of the Queen's chamber, and, for that time, protecting Mario Antoinette and her children from further outrage. Ile had courage, and seine good nature, but having failed, as a General in command of the army sent to La Vendee, was cast into prison, and narrowly escaped being executed during the despotism of Robespierre. He survived the casualties of the Revolution, and died, very obsCurely, in 1809, aged 67. No one, to our knowledge, has thought it worth while to write Santerro's biography, and therefore we cannot say whether ho was married before or after the taking of the &stile.- That event happened seventy-ono years ago, and suppo ' sing that Madame Santerro was only twenty live at the time, she now may count ninety-six years. It Is probable that she is much younger. At all events, though the 'Widow Santerre may possess one of the keys of the Bustifo, there is the most direct evidence, as stated to Lossing's ( 4 Mount Vernon and its As/io dations," that the main key of that fortress of despotism was placed in the Ildtel de Ville of Paris; that it was thence transferred to Lafayette; that Lafayette sent it to Washing ton, through Thomas Paine; that Washing ton acknowledged its receipt by letter to La fayette ; and that it has remained at Mount Vernon ever since.

Dow THEY DISSOLVED VIE DNION.—The South Carolina Legislature lately sent ant a parcel of resolutions inviting each of the other Southern States to join in a disunion conference. When they reached Texas, the Legislature eyed them suspiciously: Members remarked that Texas had bad too numb trouble getting into the Union to bo in a hurry to got out of it. And they wore summarily laid under the table. When they reached Virginia, there was a long debate. But the Legislature finally came to the sensible conclusion that a disunion conference would have no power to dissolve the Union, and, if it had, that wasn't what they wanted. So the resolutions were not concurred in. When they reached Maryland, the whole Le. gielature rose up, with two exceptions, to indig nantly spurn them as an invitation to treason, which message goes back to Sou th Carolina, with their compliments.

Q s -Val influencing public opinion in the free-labor States All such notions as these are based on profeen ignorance of the lowa of trade and of the relation of commerce with civil governments. They ar the offspring of the same blind policy, if auchl may be called, which advises the Northern people. to give up the use of stigar and cotton in order to injure and destroy slavery. Such ideas belong+ only to those who aim to make political action en tirety an abstract notion of right and Wrong, with out duo consideration of the wants and weaknesses: of human nature. Whet societies entirely dif f erent in their habits! and feelings are organised under government radically diverse in their character and traditions, it is difficult, if not impossible, to prevent an in-, terchatige of commodities between the two cont.! munities. And the difficulty of commercial non-I intercourse is not destroyed though natural eb-; slacles—such as lofty ranges of mountains, a wids4, river. or broad see—interveno between the twof nations. Thus, in spite of the national antipathie.o, between Frame and England, with all the revenuq vessels and officers in the rem-rice of these two Powers, it to altogether impossible to prevent even smuggling on the coasts of the two couttriea. And if smuggling exists merely for the evasion of high duties, bow much more would it flourish in case that non-intercourse were secured? But, if smuggling is, to a certain extent, carried, on between Franco and England, it has an orga.i nized system on the frontiers of Belgium and the French empire. In spite of the vigilant and all, pervasive police at the disposal of the Emperor,', the laces of Brussels will gat to Paris, without bay- , ing paid tribute to the French treasury. Consideri tog these facts, and many others of the same cha-, racter, familiar to persona at all acquainted withi the trade between the European States, the idea of, even limited non-intercourse between the Northern; and Southern States of the Union appears impracti-i cable and preposterous. Those who advocate the policy of non-Intercourse with a view to save the Union from Northern tig-: gressions, are guilty of the very illogical act of put, Clog the cart before the horse. If the Northern , and Southern States were under separate Oovern-! silents, possessing strong and well-organized armies. , as well as powerful end centralized systems of rere-1 nue and pollee, it might not be arrant folly to at-I tempt to break up trade between the two countries i As waiters are at present all the fire articles about' ceasing to buy from Northern merchants aro mere! bubbles to muse the fancies of grown-up children.- 1 Mobile Register.
