    when he or his country must perish ; Yirginius
stabbing his best beloved for honor's sake;
Matins Scalvola burning his right hand in the
fire; Regulus, the slave of honor, returning to
torture and io death for truth spoken to his
country. Stories such as these it is that breath
and burn yet ; such as these enchant these old
stones, and make this waving maiden-hair, that
clothes the deserted ruches, seem unlike that
which waves unstoried under the damp shades
of an Andover forest. It is this vague spirit
that haunts this place, makes it so lovely to be
here, and to wander about peaceably among
the ruins; but this all takes flight before the
measuring tools of the antiquarian.
I protest, too, against all modern histories of
Rome that intermeddle with the dear old his
toric legends. Because a German professor has
nothing to do but build us a new historic theory,
shall we give up Romulus and Remus and the
she-wolf, most revered of quadrupeds? If these
things were not true, they ought to have been,
and one must hold on to them. For my part
I clasp Rollin to my heart, and say, as the. Duke
of Wellington did, when a certain officer pre
tended that his resignation of office was a mis
take: there is no mistake, and there shall be
none.
Histories have their fashions. In one cen
tury it is all the mode to abuse an author; the
world takes the bill in its mouth and runs off
with it like a frisky young puppy—out the
next age comes; and lo "nous awns change touts
cela," the old history is on its feet again.
Herodotus was pleasantly called the father of
lies. Now he bids fair to be the standard of
truth; and in this faith I quietly enjoy my Fo
rum by the light of a small abridgement of
Goldsmith's Rome, helped on by Macaulay's
Lays, which, like everything he ever wrote,
give more graphic and better historic ideas in
a glowing phrase than whole volumes of te
dious details of the most creeping antiquarian.

HARRISBURG, PA
Wednesday Afternoon, November 14,1560.
Mr. Lincoln's Conservatism.
An able and independent journal, pub
lished in a slave State, introduces some
extracts from Mr. Lincoln's speeches on
the subject of slavery, to show his conser
vatism, and remarks that “the true reme
dy for the excitement which prevails in a
portion of the country, will be found in
Mr. Lincoln's own utterances and decla
rations. Throughout the campaign just
closed, he has been portrayed by most of
the newspapers and stump orators of the
anti-Republican factions as an Abolition
ist—a fanatic of—the John Brown type;
the slave to one idea, who, in order to
carry that out to its logical results, would
override laws, constitutions and compro.
raises of every kind, nor shrink, if neces
sary, from overturning the whole fabric of
society, like another Robespierre. Never
„„, „.„ E „ 1. mnn an nufrngonngly miciren,
resented. The picture of his character,
drawn by his enemies, is true to no ono
linemen t. All who know him bear wit
ness that he has the calm wisdom, and
patriotism withal, characteristic of practi
cal statesmen, and that his convictions,
though deep rooted, are entirely free from
the slightest tincture of fanaticism. With
regard to slavery, his views are identical
with those common to the first and great
est generation of our statesmen—identical
with those professed and, in later days,
generally acted upon by Clay, Benton
and Webster—and, in no essential, par
ticularly different from the doctrines pro
fessed both by the Whig and Democratic
pirties, until the Calhoun heresy arose.
The best way, therefore, to minister to
the extreme South is to give wide publici
ty to these views. No one can say the
method proposed is empirical, nor that
the opiate is prepared for the occasion.
Lincoln expressed himself fully two years
ago—and when he had no expectation of
filling the Executive Chair of the Repub
lic. As he is arraigned for his opinions,
let his opinions be cited. Let not his
enemies shirk the trial which they clamor
for by substituting their base calumnies
and wild fancies for the authentic record.
We are far from admitting that the opin
ions of any man legally chosen to the
Presidency, however extreme they might
be, would furnish the shadow of a pretext
for rebellion—but at the same time ;we
deem it our duty to present the truth to
our Southern friends. We would rather
conciliate than irritate—rather explain
than threaten. Magnanimity should go
hand in hand with victory ; and the Re
publican victors will but add another to
their many claims to popular esteem by
holding out now with no reluctant hand
the olive branch to their excited fellow
citizens in-the South, and by laboring to
disabuse the Southern mind of the gross
prejudices and chimerical fears with which
it is possessed."
NEW JERSEY A FREE STATE.—The
Newark Mercury of this morning says
the returns received render it nearly cer
tain that four Lincoln electors have
been chosen in that State. The votes
Oast in the several counties show a major
ity of 397 in favor of the Republicans, as
against Messrs. Vroom and Condit; while
Messrs. Bremer and Wurts are defeated
still more heavily. The result from that
battle-groind State is highly satisfactory,
in view of the heavy odds against the Re
publicans when the late Cal/P41919 began.
Petirtopthania iDailp aclegutpt), 'afternoon, Noptmber 14,, 186-0.
The Next Congress.
The defeat of Burlingame in Massachu
setts, and Pennington in New Jersey, in
districts which were confidently counted
upon, added to our losses in Pennsylva
nia, New York and'Ohio, make it certain
that Mr. Lincoln will not have a Repub
lican majority in the House at the incom
ing of his AdMinistration. The Senate
is against him also. Iu the changes and
transmutations of parties for which the
times seem favorable, it is possible that
he may speedily be able to command
necessary support for such political meas
ures as may be brought forward; and the
presence of a few Douglas and Bell-Ever
ett men may, at all times, make factious
opposition to what he will propose, un
availing. The joy which all men feel in
view of the fact that the Democracy are
about to be disarmed for mischief, will be
greatly moderated by the other unpleasant
fact that the Republicans in Congress will
be nearly powerless for good.. We see in
this dead-lock only another incentive for
continuing the revolution which has been
begun, certainly up to a point that will
give the Republicans the control in the
government of which they are now de
frauded, by, for the most part, iniquitous
apportionments, which seem to have been
made for just this emergency.
The Old North State.
A letter from Raleigh says its inhabit
ants affirm unitedly their determination to
remain in the Union until the Constitution
is violated, and until they have tested the
result of Mr. Lincoln's election. They
will not he coaxed or driven into an overt
act themselves, nor will they countenance
it in other States. Gov. Ellis has also
expresvl himself against the prevailing
excitement, and recommends moderation.
The Raleigh State Register observes :
If Lincoln has been fairly elected according
to the provisions of the Constitution and the
laws, then we, for one, are willing to give his
administration a fair trial. Now, if this frank
and honest avowal on our part subjects us to
the serious charge of being either a "submis
sionist" to the North or a "traitor" to the
South, then let it be written down against us ;
yea, let it be also engraved upon our tomb
stone after we shall have been hanged for our
"treason," that wo loved not wisely but too
well the glorious teachings of a Washington,
and of all those Revolutionary heroes and sages
who were the achievers of oar liberties, the
framers of our Union, and who transmitted that
Union to us cemented with their blood 1
L ag: • • qtylaw • i d "
The impression generally prevails that
Mr. Lincoln will make one of the most
popular Presidents that ever assumed the
Executive office. The reason is that the
course which his enemies have pursued
has made him the representative of the
constitutional and union sentiment of the
people. They threatened to overturn our
government in the event of his success,
and the very threat has converted to his
support all the interests that are menaced.
Let the traitors undertake to execute
their malicious purpose, and every man at
the South, as• well as the* North, who is
the friend of order, will look to Lincoln
to uphold our institutions. All the Bell-
Everett men, nearly all the Douglas men,
and thousands of conservatives who side
with no party, beside•the solid phalanx of
Republica ism, will uphold his strong
arm while he maintains the . integrity of
the organic law.
THE SECESSION FARCE.—We think
that few will read the dispatches from
South Carolina, without being struck with
the theatrical air which characterizes the
secession demonstrations. The French
style, destitute of the terrible but fitful
earnestness of the French character, marks
the descendants of the Palmetto Hugue
nots. It will be also noticed that the
oratory has the false ring of the school
which finds its most perfect embodiment
in the renowned Pistol. We admit the
courage and fiery valor of the chivalry,
but at the same time we cannot persuade
ourselves that the pyrotechny of their
speeches is wholly artificial ; that it pro
ceeds from the magazine of the fancy, and
not from souls kindled into flame by the
fierce inspiration of revolution.
A SCREW LOOSE II THE SECESSION
MACHINERY.—The South Carolina Legis
lature do not find everything going
smoothly for secession. The question of
ways and means seems likely to give them
trouble.. A resolution for raising a mil
lion of dollars for the defence of the State
broght a Mr. Johnston to his feet, who
said that, "although he was as much in
earnest as any one, he was not willing to
pass a bill to raise a million of dollars
without indicating how that money is to
be raised. Let us show that it is to be
raised in a way not to be a burden upon
the poorer classes of our population. The
particular species of property which is to
be protected should bear the burden of
the cost of that protection." •
Victory and Peace
The seven years' war is at last ended, by the
ctiui of Abraham Lincoln as Chief Magis
trate of the Republic. Let the nation rejoice
at this glorious event. Let a choral shout of
exultation rise from the soul of the people, at
this, their great victory, over the enemies of
freedom and the upholders and champions of
wrong. The joy is too great for verbal expan
sions : the vista opened is too radiant and
boundless for description. For nearly seven
years the two principles have fought for the
possession of the broad outlaying Territories—
the one entering the arena like a naked man,
the other armed to the teeth—and Freedom,
such is the God-like force that dwells in it, has
prevailed. Slavery, shorn of its prestige, and
baffled in all its cunning arts and desperate ex
pedients, retires within its ancient limits like
an invading army beaten back. Thus is the
glorious truth emphasized - again, that right at
last makes might. Thus have American in
stitutions re-instated themselves in the affec
tions and admiration of the world. The So
vereignty of the people rising in awful majesty
has overwhelmed the minions of oligarchical
tyranny and slavery propagandism. The fiat
has gone forth which transfers the sceptre from
the nerveless grasp of recreant and degenerate
Democracy to another power, in the person of
Abraham Lincoln. That dethroned and dis
crowned dynasty will never again betray the
rights which it was appointed to guard and
vindicate. The line fitly ends with James
Buchanan.
Will any faction in the country dare to raise
a rebel howl against the sovereignty of the
nation, as exercised in the election of Lincoln?
We hope not, for if any faction should, swift
ruin would fall upon it like a thunderbolt. The
duty of all loyal men, now that the contest is
over, is to rally round the nation's choice, and
give effect to the nation's will. The distinctive
party appellations should no longer be heard ;
all mere party strife should be suspended until
the enemies of the Union, if they dare proceed
to overt acts, are compelled to submit to the
laws. Treason should be extinguished before
party controversies are revived. But it is our
firm belief, that never was the country less
liable to be subjected to the desolating curse of
civil war. Peace will follow our victory. The
President elect is a wise, temperate, conserva
tive, patriotic statesman, whose noble ambition
it will be to demean himself in his high office
for the good of all ; not to make himself the
leader of a crusade against one section of the
country. It is, therefore, the duty of all men
who are not disloyal to the institutions under
which they live, and faithless to the Constitu
tion which they have sworn to maintain—it is
their duty to give his Administration a fair
trial before condemning him. He is the na
tion's choice, and no annointed king since the
days of David could claim a diviner right to
rule than he. But who can realize the full
meaning of his election ? The United States;
under the policy which he is commissioned to
inaugurate, will enter on a new career—a ca
reer which will be attended with a wondrous
material development and the elevation of the
public mind to higher and nobler reaches—a
career which shall restore the country to the
path of true progress and put an end to the
sectional jealousies and antipathies which have
grown rank under Democratic misrule.—St.
Louis Democrat.
Conservative Sentiment in Virginia.
The Alexandria Gazette of Monday, thus
treats the secession movement:
The Richmond Enquirer proposes a Conven
tion in Virginia on Federal Relations—but ad
vises the Southern States not to wait f'or Vir
ginia. South Carolina has not waited. All
idea of a " United South" is given up by those
who used to clamor for it—and' what is more,
. . .ny - Tartra, re.soln.tical t
ary measures, or in any attempt to dissolve the
Union and break up the government, for the
reason alone of the untoward result of a Presi
dential election. Virginia has voted for Mr.
Breckenridge ; but by a majority se small; in
comparison with the vote given for Mr. Bu
chanan four years ago, and other Democratic
votes, as to show a great change in public senti
ment, and to satisfy us that, on the question of
disunion and secession, on account, and for the
reason of an adverse result in a Presidential
election,
she will be eminently conservative.—
Of the thousands of honest and intelligent
men who, on party and other considerations,
preferred Mr. Breckenridge, two-thirds will be
opposed to any present hitching on to the car of
disunion, or any reckless, improvident, and un
constitutional course. Virginia will have
around her, and sharing her counsels and for-.
tunes, in all probability, North Carolina, Ken
tucky, Maryland, Tennessee, Missouri, Louisi
ana and Texas, and it might be, some even of
the "Gulf States." If they were wise they
would heed.
The Richmond Dispatch refers to the vote
given against Lincoln in the Northern States,
and says that regard should be had to it, and
to the conservative men, who constitute large
minorities in every Black Republican State, who
have struggled with nnfalteting constancy
against the baleful power of the party which
hangs like a black cloud over the fate of the
nation.
The Lynchburg Virginian says : " Any effort
to ally Virginia with a State in rebellion would
create an antagonism amongst our own people
that would be fatal to our peace and prosperity.
There is no just cause now existing for a resort
to extreme measures, though, when that cause
shall exist, it will, we doubt not, find us united
in resistance to aggression."
The Fredericksburg Herald says it is "the
duty of the Union men of the South and of the
North, of the East and of the West, to stand
firm, to counsel moderation and prudence, to
oppose disunion and sectionalism now as they
did before the election, to constitute them
selves the nucleus of the great national party
that is to take care of this country hereafter,
and to bide their time patiently and confidently.
Let the Union flag be kept flung upon the
breeze, and it may yet wave in triumph. '
The Valley Democrat says: "Our voice is
against the resistance of the South to the elec
tion of Lincoln. God knows we despise Black
Republicanism as much as any man in the
country, but the simple election of any man
in compliance with the laws and constitution
of our country affords no just ground for se
cession and revolution."
The Voice of Tennessee.
The Nashville Patriot of Thursday last an
nounces the election of Lincoln, ridicules the
position taken by South Carolina, and adds :
We entertain the loftiest respect for Governor
Gist; we greatly admire his remarkable strength
of character, as well as his scholarly mind, as
exhibited in his masterly State paper labeled
"No. 1," and we have always been of the opin
ion that South Carolina is about the only State
in the Union that is entitled to any constitu
tional rights or worth a continental cuss ; but
notwithstanding that respect, that admiration
and that opinion, we would advise him and
South Carolina to adjourn their Legislature as
soon as it fixes up its electoral business, and
then go home, strap down their pantaloons,
and hire somebody to hold them until old Abe
gets to meddling with matters that don't con
cern him, and that, feather in upon him and
wear him out.
The Nashville (Tenn.) Banner says :
If the voice of a majority of the American
people shall be found recorded in favor of Abra
ham Lincoln for President, it is the duty of
every true American citizen to acquiesce in the
verdict. It is his duty as a citizen—as a. party
to the compact by which our government was
established, and under which he has enjoyed
privileges which no other government on earth
offers to its people. It is his duty as a conser
vative man, who, though he may believe that
tho majority is aggressive, and threatens to
despoil him of his rights under the Constitution,
should prefer
"To bear those I we have
Than fly to others that we know not of."
It is his duty to society, to himself and his
family, and is demanded by that love of peace
and good government which should be inherent
in the breast of every son of Columbia.

Stephens and Johnson for Union.
MILLEDGEVILLE, Geo , Nov. 14
Hou. Alex. Stephens denies emphatically
that he is in favor of secession. He is to make
a conciliatory speech here to-night. He and
Herschel V. Johnson will make Union speeches
at Atlanta some night this week. Several of
the most influential men of Georgia have ex
pressed their decided opposition to secession.
The Sober Second Thought.
RICUMOND, November 14
The Enquirer urges that a State Convention
be called at au early day, which might settle,
peaceably, the dangerous question. It says it
was with a view of concentrating public opin
ion upon such a convention, as well as to pre
pare the people for any unseen emergency, that
Ex-Governor Wise inaugurated the Minute
Men, and that he contemplated no raid on the
Federal Government.

Governor Peters has issued a proclamation
convening the Legi-lature of the State on the

for the lives, liberties and property of Mississip

the past action of the Northern State Govern

Mr. Lincoln and the Crisis.
SPRINGFIELD, Nov. 14
Mr. Lincoln, in conversation with some
friends yesterday, while deeply regretting the
excitement that prevailed at the South, did
not, at the same time, deem it expedient that
he should say anything publicly upon the sub
ject. Whenever alluded to regarding his posi
tion, he invariably refers to his former writings
and speeches, and from them to the platform of
the party which elected him—a combination,
he thinks, sufficient for all purposes. With
reference to the exasperated feeling and ex
citement itself, he thinks it will be of short
duration, and that the better judgment of the
people will soon resume its sway.
Affairs at the Federal Capital.
WASHINGTON, November 14
The city is quuit to-day. The absence of news
from the South is the cause. It is the general
opinion that there will be no actual secession,al
- there will be great trouble before things
are settled. At the Cabinet meeting yesterday,
the question of secession was discussed ; but, so
far, nothing of any importance has been done
Gov. Corwin authorizes a denial of the sensa
tion despatches purporting to represent that he
„is _Lincoln's ft.ruckent; - ancraL.: - .1.,..3....,
way, given publicity to the views of the Presi
dent elect, even if he were acquainted• with
them. He states that he is not responsible for
Lincoln's sentiments, and thinks, in common
with others, that it would be exceedingly im
politic for Lincoln to make any public exposi
tion of his views before the vote of the Electo
ral College is cast.
He has no earthly doubt but that Mr. Lincoln
will fulfill his oath to the letter to support the
Constitution, and that there is, therefore, no
need of this useless speculation in regard.to his
policy, especially so far as it makes him the
herald of Mr. Lincoln's views. It is perfectly
safe to say that Mr. Lincoln has not indicated
his views to any one.
Fugitive Slave Case in Chicago. •
CHICAGO, Nov. 13th.
A negro slave, "Eliza," having escaped
from Nebraska, was arrested by the United
States Marshal last night. The marshal was
stopped in the street by an excited crowd of
negroes,
and compelled to give the woman to
the custody of the police, who lodged her in
the Armory for safety. The streets in the vi
cinity were crowded with negroes and some
whites, all highly excited.
Buchanan Pledged to Secession
Hon. L. M. Keitt, member of Congress from
this State, was serenaded at midnight, last
night. He made an exciting speech, urging
prompt action on the part of the South. He
said that Mr. Buchanan was pledged to secession
and would be held to it. South Carolina should
shatter the accursed Union, he said. If she
could not otherwise accomplish her purpose,
she would throw her arms around the pillars of
the Constitution and involve all the States in a
common ruin.
South Carolina Legislature Adjourned.
The South Carolina Legislature adjourned
this morning. Nothing of interest transpired
during to•day's session. The members are en

Repudiation In the South•
Wesimmow, 'Nov. 13, 1860
Systematic attempts are being made by va
rious combinations in this city and in Balti
more, to create the impression that it is the in
tention of Southern merchants and dealers to
repudiate their Northern obligations. The fact
that most of the Southern railroads are indebt
ed to the North, and that a large amount Of
money is due from the former to the latter, so
far from inspiring a disposition on the part of
honest men in the slave States to secede, Is A
REASON WAY THEY TAKE GROUND AGAINST SECTS
sum. Nothing will do more to defeat the
plans of the Disunionists than the sensibility
of the gentlemen of the South to avoid the dis
grace of repudiation. They may be ready to
retaliate in any other way upon the free States,
but they indignantly refuse to dishoner their
honest debts.
At the head of those who take the highest
ground in favor of preserving the national cre
dit, and of maintaining the integrity of the
South, is the banking-house of Riggs & Co., at
this point, and no one is more determined in
the expression of his opinion in regard to it
than W. W. Corcoren, Esq.
The seceding States remember the way in which
Mississippi was denounced by the whole civ
ilized world when she repudiated her debts, and
they will not ho willing to couple disunion with
dishonor. Of one thing be assured—neither
Maryland nor Virginia will ever tolerate the
alternative of secession. The District of Col
umbia is sandwiched between these States, and
her prosperity is the prosperity of her two sup
porters. Rely upon it, that nowhere will the
Union feeling be found to be stronger than in
the city of Washington.

FOR MAKING
Bread, Tea-Cakes, all kinds of Pastry, &o
CONCENTRATED LEAVEN is the re
sult of careful chemical research. All its ingredi
ents are prepared in the highest state of purity, and com
pounded with a view to produce bread of a far better
quality, and in much less time, than by any other pro
cess ; and by the manufacturers Submit it, with entire
confidence, to the judgment of discriminating house
keepers, bakers, &c.
Bread of all kinds made by using Concentrated Leaven
Is lighter, more digestible and nuitritions; has an agrees.
ble, natural taste ; is loss liable to sour ; will retain its
moisture longer thau by any other process, and the
whole preparation for the oven need cot exceed ten
minutes.
It is valuable because It is not perishable, and may be
rendered available in places and at times when yeast is
not within reach, as at sea. Iu all climates and under
all circumstances, it may be adopted, thus obviating all
..u 6 .a.n.r...ol:nrsouring yeast or other ferme t whiah is
frequently of an - thMriorquainyi- remoring tne rireau
more or less unwholesome.
It is also valuable as regards economy, as it has been
ascertained that a saving is effected in the flour of not
less than 16 per cent. In the common procceso much of
the saccharine of the flour is lost by being converted
into carbonic acid gas, or spirit, and the waste is in
curred solely for the purpose of genorating gas to raise
the dough. By using Concentrated Leaven this waste is
avoided, and the gas obtained in a manner equally effi
cacious. Fermentation, as has been stated, destroys a
part of the flour or meal, and, lu consequeffEe, a barrel of
flour weighing 196 lbs., which, by the C 017121011 method,
ordinarily makes about 250 lbs of bread, gives by this
proceis 290 lbs , thus effecting the very important saving
of 16 per cent, in the quantity of flour. By conformity to
the directions on each package, any person capable of
ordinary attention may conduct the process, and the re
sult will invariably be highly satisfactory.
CERTIFICATE FROM DR. HAYES,
Assayer to the State of Massachusetts.
have analysed the Concentrated Leaven, manufac
tured by Messrs. Edw. Chamberlin & Co., with reference
to its purity and efficiency of action in producing the ef
fect of yeast in distending dough, and thereby rendering
it fit for making bread. This article is skillfully corn.
pounded, from perfectly pure material. It raises the
dough without consuming the sugar or any other princi
ple in the flour, perfectly; and the same weight of flour
will produce mere sweet, palatable bread than can be
obtained through yeast; while for cakes and pastry it is
invaluable,
as it saves all risk, and much time of the
pastry cook.
"The experiments made by me confirm the statements
made by the manufacturers, and proves thts compound
worthy of public approval and extended use.
