Mcb ofoor pepe tbi week is taken p
witb the treasonable designs of the dlEonlort-
Istt which fortunately are mostly confined to
iootb Carolina aod Georgia. That there
will be aoy :toal secession by any Stat we
do oot believe, bat matters have arrived at
tucb crisis as to Creole great cause for
alarm. There appears to bo tome difference
of opinion at to tbe right of a 8tat to secede
from the original compact, but the weight of
authority both North and Sonth, heretofore,
hat beeo almost unanimous agaiost the
right of secession. There it certainly nothing
Io the Constitution that provides for aoy
tucb emergency, enlest It is Revolution,
wbicb, if unsuccessful, wonld be nothing less
than treason.
It it tald, but wbicb we very much doubt,
that President Buchanan admits tbe right of
South Carolina to Recede peaceably, and will
oot resist soch a movement if tbe Convention
to assemble next month should determine in
its favor. Resistance, It is thought, would
produce results more disastrous than seces
sion. Such were not the opinions of General
Jackson, nor would be bave permited tucb buld
aod treasonable designs, lie once threaten
ed to "hang as high at Hainan'' Sooth Caro
linu't favorite ton, Jobo C. Calboon, for
timilar conduct. Already trade aod com
merce ie prostrated .in Charleston, and tbe
Banks bave most probably suspended.
These things will bave their effect. But
if Charleston should open her ports to foreign
commerce, tbey will, no doubt, be blockaded,
io vindication of our reveouo laws, oor
wonld any recognition of ber pretensions, by
any foreign powers, be allowed by our govern
meot.

OPINIOftS OP Till PRESS O.I TIJK RE
SULT. The Louisville Journal does oot despair of
toe ennntry because ot Mr. Lincoln s election.
The Joarnal shows tbat evu if Mr. Lincoln
is disposed to injure the outb, tbe powerwill
not be in bis bands, since tbe Coogrees of the
United States bas the power to check bim
'His election," says the Jtturnal, "gives rise.
Tor tbe first time in our history on a consider
able scale, to one of tbe very exigencies con
templated by tbe framers of the government
in tbo distribution of its powers, and whicb
these framers believed thu distribution tbey
made was entirelv adequate to meet success
fully. We believe tbey were not mistaken.
At any rate we are willing to give tbeir great
handiwork a fair chance."
Aud eloses with this eloquent and earnest
appeal :
"W most not part. We Biraio bave lost
the day, it iB true, but we bave still a country
wortny of our love, and imploring oor pro
tection. By all the stirring memories of tbe
past, by all tbe proud associations of tbe
present, aud by all the glorious hopes of tho
future, let us love her aod protect bor still."
1 he Cbuilotle C). bulletin says :
"No Federal slave, witb sword in band,
will dare to attempt to cross tbe line that
divides North and South Carolina, without
making op bis mind to blot from tbe stage of
existence tbe sons of tbe noble sires who
faced the swords of tbe oppressor iu 1776,
and first declared tbeir independence oftbe
British Crown.
Tbe Lynchburg Virginian, after advising
moderation, shows that tbe election of Mr.
Lincoln was Dot due to those who raged
upon tbe question of slavery, and tbat there
is no desire on tbe part of bis supporters to
interfere witb tbe south. I be I xrgiman
draws the inference from the defeat of Bur-
lingame and Penningtou, that the feeling of
tbe IS orthern people is a conservative ooe,
uoc says :
"Lincoln cannot and will not attempt to
pursue a policy tbat would be. acceptable to
thousands of bis own party, and the remit
will be tbat tbe extremists will leavs bim and
war upon bis Administration. Onr policy,
however, is to wait lb iodicatioos of tb
futore."
Io another editorial, the same paper pities
"Po6r little South Carolina," and declares its
willingness to let tbe troublesome member
go, "but for tbe precedent." Tbe Virginian
bas uo lailb id secession. Hear ill
" I bis act It suicidal to the best interests
of Carolina ; and ber people will sot be slow
to htarn it. If sbe even escape tbe evil of

IT IS A COMMON OBSERVATION
tbat there are more sufferers from debility
among Americans, tbao can be foocd among
any other civilized nation. 1 he reason is
obvious. Wa take too little exercise, and
forget tbe wants of tbe body io tbe absorbing
pursuits of business. Iu all surb caes.
ordinary medicines can do little good, What
s required Is jUBt such a tonic and invigora-
tor as Dr. J. Hostetter hoe given to the
world, in bis CELEBRATED "U1TTER3."
rhe weak and nervous deniien of the coun
ting house, the exhausted toiler upon the
shop board, and tbe proslratod student oftbe

erator in the "Bitters," and prefer it to more
pretentions, bat less efficacious medicines.
Uut it should not be Torgotleu that tbe agent

frame which is merely debilitated, is equally
poworlul in assisting nature to expel the
