SEGESSIOH.
The seceesiou spirit is still raspsnt,
person, in abandoning fort Moultrie and
occupying fort Sumpter, the eonntry at
present, and long before tbe 4th of next
March, would have beeu in a desperate
and horrible condition. Revolution are
new lo u?, and we therefore, can scarcely
conceive their magnitude aud wretched
consequences, and consequently failtoprc
pare property to nip them in the bud. We
see what awful results they have effected in
foreign countries yet we cannot believe even
wheu we find ourselves surrounded by all
the sicusof,yea Rebellion itself, tbat it wiil
in sny event result iu anything eerious iu
our own case. But rebellion is upon u-.
War is imminent. Let all be prepared
lor the worst, but hope for the best
Major Anderson ' action defeated the
abeme? of the traitors in part, but by no
means altogether. Floyd, Mr. Buchan
an's Secretary of War, was unquestiona
bly a bleck hearted traitor, and be. being
in the particular confidence of Buchanan,
Fueseeded in inducing him not to reinforce
the forts in the Southern States, notwith
standing G'n. Scolt, sdvi-ed him urgently
tnd repeatedly to the contrary. This
was done in order at some particular time,
that the Fort might all be seized by the
icbels. It was also- a part of their echt-me
to take tbo Capitol, and it is bilieved to be
ttill thvir intontioD to do so. But Mr.
Holt, the present Secretary of War, is a
tiue Union u?8n, and imoiediately after
taking upon biaiself the duties of this of
fice, s'Ut for Gen Sentt and has since
been acting in accordance with tbe Gen
oral's advice. Tbis bein tbe case we
may expect to see epeedily brought about
a radically different rtate of thing. The
taking of the Capitol by the rebels isre
ctiving thcir attention, 'and we trunt will
be successfully guarded againet. The
federal property wiil be put in a defen
site condition. Tbe unarri-oned forts,
or cotcparativrly o, in North Carolina
and Georgia have beeu taken by the reb
els, and it is thought tbat those in Florida
are also taken. Had those forts been
reinforced as General Scott advised, tbey
could not have beeu taken.

that Territory. Aud this legislature, c-
leoted by the basest of fraud and violence,
received the unqualified support of the
party that repealed this Gompromiae.
Again, wlu-n tbe party in power came
into posses.-ion of the Trea-ury at Wash
ington, it was full, and general prosper
ity smiled upon the people. But numer-
ous and repeated robberies, together with
a system of universal profligacy and mis-
rule, have depleted the Treasury and sba-
ken the country from centre to circuai-
ference. The New York Herald, an ad-
vocateof this Administration, says that
tbe robberies already delected amount to
near four million of dollars. What will
bc the amount when thev arc all detec
ted I
These acts of bae treachery and mis
rule, on tbe part of tbe party inpower,
have caused tho people to lose all confi
deocc in it; and thus they declared them
selves, on tho Gth of last November.
Tbo Republican party have done noth
ing nor do they intend to do any thing
that is in any respect unconstitutional, or
that has not been done before. They
aioiply intend to restore the policy of the
Government which was in existence pre
vious to the repeal of the Missouri Com
promise.
These harpys, who have plundered the
Treasury, concocted secession, and are
now fanning the flames of rebellion, turn
to us and ask for the good times that
were promised tbe people after tbe party,
in power were driven from the high pla
ccs that they have bo shamefully abused
Tben they, with an exultant spirit, cite
"Banks suspended ! Business prostrate !
Hundreds bankrupt! Thousands starving!
Civil commotion at our doors! Audit
may be years of War of Tears- of Blood.'1
Every one of those consequences has come
upon the people or been initiated by and
during tbe Administrations of the party
in power, and every one is a logical con
sequence of the debauchery and misrule
that bave run rampant at tho Federal
Capitol for tbe last eight years..
The New York Herald, tbe mouth
piece of this Administration, the other day
said, that tho crisis and all its consequen
ces ore justly chargeable to the party
that repealed the Missouri Compromise
act.
We never promised belter times during
the misrule of the party iu power. They
must be drien out first, and every thing
tbatthey have had coutrpl of be thorough
ly purged and regenerated before a bet
ter state of things can be expected.

Secession is their constant theme,
They claim they have a right
At any time to leave (he ship,
And for it they will fight.
Stock Jobbers and the banks to help
Ignite this panic taper,
Repudiated all at once,

Some greenhorns who cannot fishtah,
And all their dues collect,
Are charging all, I understand,
To Lincoln the elect.
Poor Lincoln he must meekly bear,
The ignorance of the masses,

And kicks of Southern asses.
Now in conclusion I would say,
As an humble western man,
I hope the South will fizzle out,
And just flash in the pan.

"Resolved, That we fully approve the
bold and patriotic act of Major Ander
son in withdrawing from Fort Moultrie
to Fort Sumter, aud the determination oi
the President to maintain tbat fearless
officer in his present condition, and we
will support the Pre;ident in all constitu
tional measures to enforce tbe laws and
preserve the Union."

Among those wbo sustained this reso-
lution, were a majority of tbe Democrat
ic representatives of the North, and sev

Southern States. This resolution i

signed to the President Iub commis.-ion as
Secretary of the Interior, on tho ground
that, after the order to re enforce Major
Anderson was countermanded, on tho
31ft of Decomber, there was a distinot
understanding that no troops should be
ordered South without the subject being
considered and decided ou in tho Cabi
net. At tho Cabiuet meeting at tbo 2d of
January, tbe matter was again debated,
but not determined. Notwithstanding
these faets, tho Secretary of War, with
out the knowledge of Seoretary Thomp
son, sent 550 troops in tho Star of the
West to ro-onforoo Anderson. Not learn
ing of this still tbis morniu, he forthwith
resigned.
Ij Major Anderson has been re-in-forded
by order of tho War Department.

"Why do we mourn for a brother deceased
Our loss is his infinite gain?
A soul out of prision released, - r
And freed from its bodily chain ;
With songs let us follow hi3 flight,
And mount with his spirit above;
hiScape to the mansions of light,
And lodged in tho Eden above.
Our brother tho haven hath gain'd
Out flying the tempest and wind,
'X !
ills rest he has sooner obtain d,
And left his companions behind;
Still toss'd on a sea of distress,
Hard toiling to make the blest shore,.'
Where all is assurance and peace,
And sorrow and pain are no more."
