Saturday Afternoon, December 1. 1860.
Secret of the Panic.
The New York Independent, a leading
commereial paper, and one of the most
ly edited in that city, sums up the na
ture and causes of the present financial
disturbance in the following expressive
terms. We believe that every intelligent
and candid man, no matter what his po
litical sentiments, will agree with the
writer that the attempt of the Slave
Power, to do through the stock-market
what it failed to do through the ballot
box—bully the North into some cunning
ly devised "compromise" for the especial
benefit of the slave breeders and drivers
—is the real secret of the "panic." But
here is the Independent's article, brief
and to the point :
A party of merchants in this city united sev
eral weeks ago in a discreditable combination to
defeat the election of Mr Lincoln by working
upon the fears of those who were made to be
lieve that his election would bring ruin upon
the laud. The Herald, for a fortnight before
the election, announced the coming of a Panic
with as much assurance as the coming of the
next steamer. Of course it was easy to prophesy
it, because it had been already planned. Of
course those who were to make it knew that it
would be made. A pre-arranged movement to
push down stocks is easily effected in this city.
Such a pre arrangement was made, Only some
who had a right to be parties to it were not told
in time, and lost money enough to vote for Mr.
Lincoln. But the leaders, if not the rank and
file of followers, knew very well when to get
lid of their stocks before the coming deprecia
tion of value. We could mention the names of
some well•known champions of the Fusion
party who sold out all their stocks shortly be
fore the market was to be borne down by their
unworthy act. This was before the election,
but as this preliminary Panic didnot succeed in
defeating Mr. Lincoln, it has been kept up
since—regardless of expense I—to break up the
moral force of his election, to embarrass the
incoming Administration, and to defeat the
popular will 'expressed in the vote of the Sixth
of November. It is supposed that if the South
clamors loud enough, and the Panic pinches
long enough, and the lie be told often enough
that the Republican party did it—the Republi
can States will at last be bullied into blotting
out Personal Liberty Bills—into permitting
some of the free territories to be turned into
slave soil—and into accepting some cunning
compromise by which the country shall still
continue to be governed by the old hereditary
Slave Power whose dominion has now, by the
people's decree, come lawfully to an end. But
thank God that an honest and brave man is to
be President. This is the secret of the Panic :
2'he Slave Power, undertaking to do through the stock
market what it failed to do through the ballot box.
A STORMY SESSION.
A stormy session of Congress is expected.
'MIL "Tile --ituptrurcuoa,---, aclaicred a tri
umph, can afford to be very quiet._ Besides
they have the organization-0i tho Er.E.iiisTunct
are responsible to the country for the business
of the House. The contests in the House that
may occur this winter will not, therefore, beoti
between them and their opponents, but between
the three several opposition parties in the
House—the Breckinridge mon, the Douglas
men and the Bell men.—Exchange Paper.
It is not likely that the scenes of the
coming session will be more stormy, or
the speeches of Southern extremists more
intemperate, than they were last winter
during the contest for Speaker. The Re
publicans preserved a dignified and judi
cious silence, while the surplus steam
blew off through the harmless safety
valves of these haranguers. At the com
ing session, however, there is likely to be
a bitter "irrepressible conflict" between
Southerners themselves. Representatives
from the Cotton States will feel it their
duty to make speeches against the Union,
which Representatives from Virginia,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryland and Mis
souri will probably deem it their duty to
answer by arguments in its favor. At
the North there is but one sentiment in
regard to the Union. At the South there
are two, and the contest will be between
Representatives of Southern people, to
whom its decision will be of vital import
ance. That it will be decided wisely and
patriotically when "sober second thoughts"
shall have been listened to, we hope and
sincerely believe.
Stopping Congressional Legislation.
A correspondent of a southern paper has
produced:a series of articles with the de
sign of showing that the absence of one
State, at the opening of Congress, must
prevent a constitutional organization. It
is evident, however, that the framers of
the constitution and the early statesmen
of the country differed in toto with the
South Carolina logician upon this as well
as many other important matters of State
and government. The Convention which
formed the original Constitution, provi
ded in that instrument that it should go
into effect when nine States had adopted
it. Eleven States gave in their adhesion
to the Constitution, and elected Repre,
sentatives to assemble at New York
March 4, 1789. The bad state of the
roads at that time, and other circumstan
ces, prevented an organization until April,
as no quorum was present until then.—
North Carolina came in in November of
thtit year, and Rhode Island chose her
Senators and Representatives to Congress
in 1790, but neither State ever expressed
any doubt of the constitutionality of the
proceedings of her sister States in council.
The Negro Equality Humbug.
The Germantown Telegraph, a news
paper whose neutrality in politics will not
be questioned, thus refers to the charge
made by the Democratic papers and ora
tors, previous to the election, that the
Republicans were in favor of extending
the elective franchise to the colored race:
"One of the bun - bears of the late Presidential
campaign was that the Republican party and
all the supporlers of Lincoln wanted to make
negroes, in all menet:ls, equal to whites, and
that, if elected, he was pledged to make war
upon the institutions of the South. The false
hood of this statement has been abundantly
proved. In the State of New York, where Re
pullieanisin is of the strongest Seward type,
the question of amending the Constitution, so
as to allow negroes to vote, was submitted to
the people, at the polls, on the same day that
they were to vote for President. And yet, while
there was a majority of about fifty thousand for
Lincoln, the proposeil negro surfiage amend
ment was defeated by more than one hundred
thousand. Lincoln had 361,210 votes, but ne
gro suffrage had only 172,477, showing that
nearly two hundred thousand Lincoln men
were opposed to it. If the same question had
been submitted to the people of the other
States that voted for Lincoln, it would have
been decided in the same way, and, in most
States, more emphatically than it was in New
York."
THE ELECTION OF MR. JEFFERSON as
President, in the year 1800, frightened
many very worthy but rather verdant peo
ple throughout the country. A corres
pondent of the "National Intelligencer,"
who remembers the excitememt sixty
years ago, says it was then contended
that Mr. Jefferson's election would dis
solve the Union ; our country would be
overrun by paupers and criminals from
other countries ; our religion would be
destroyed; our churches closed and bibles
burned. None of these occurred. The
writer adds :—"Mr. Jefferson proved to
be one of our most popular Presidents,
the rights of each State protected, no
no churches closed and no Bibles burnt.
Such, I dare believe, will be the course
of Mr. Lincoln ; and if I do not greatly
err in my judgment, he will prove to be
one of the safest and best Presidents we
ever had."
THE PALMETTO, now SO popular in
South Carolina, has been much neglected
in Charleston in recent years. It is stated
in a letter from that city that but a sin
gle tree of the kind was to be found in the
place on the day of the Presidential Elec•
tion. Another has been set out during
the present excitement.
THE Chicago "Times," in
e_result_of_the._election—hewle:its article
with the quotation, "Whom the Lord
loveth lie chasteneth." If this is a cor
rect application of the text, Democracy
is likely to enjoy the particular favor of
the Alpaighty for some years to come.
The Electoral Vote
The latest news by the Overland Pony Ex
press from the Pacific Coast makes it pretty
certain that Lincoln has carried both Califor
nia and Oregon. Thus every one of the free
States rhas voted for him, if we except New
Jersey, and even there he gets four out of the
seven electors. Among the slave States, Vir
ginia and Missouri are in doubt, but it is most
probable that the former has voted for Bell and
the latter for Douglas, though in each State the
vete is extremely close. Presuming the reports
to be all correct, the following will be the
electoral vote of the United States : .

The whole number of the Electors being 808,
the number necessary to a choice is 152. Mr.
Lincoln has obtained 180, or 28 more than were
necessary. So that he might have done with
out Pennsylvania ; or he might have done
without California, Indiana and Illinois com
bined and still been. elected. It will be some
time before we shall get the full popular vote.
Mr. Lincoln will not have a majority, but he
will probably come quite as near to it as Mr.
Buchanan did.
CONSERVATISM IN NEW YOBS.—The World
demonstrates the conservatism of the Lincoln
party of New York. by showing the difference
between the Lincoln vote and that for negro
suffrage, es follows:
Mr. Lincoln's vote was. „ .
In favor of negro suffrage.
Difference. 182,470
The World assumes that the excess of the
Lincoln vote over that in favor of negro suf
frage, shows the conservative majority in the
party. We do not consider this method of cal
culation quite fair. Those who supported
Gerrit Smith undoubtedly voted for negro suf
frage, yet the whole vote is accredited to the
Lincolnites. 'rhea, we have no doubt that many
of the fusionists voted for the negro amend
ment, as it was not at all a party measure.--
All these votes should be substracted from
what the - Woad estimates as the radical Lin
coln numbers, and added to the conservative
majority.
REMARKABLE SlGHT.—Ulfsber, Iceland, was
lately the scene of a most remarkable mirage.
Several ships were seen sailing through the air
in a line apparently some miles in extent; some
appeared at anchor near a fortress built on a
rock ; others seemed to approach so near the
coast that the spectators could see, through the
clear atmosphere, the images of sailors at work
is the rigging.

Independent Methodist Church
Au organization, bearing the title of "Inde
pendent Anti-Slavery Methodist Church" has
been started in New York. The founder is
Rev. Hiram Mattison, an ultraist on the ques
tion of slavery, and for several years a source
of discord to the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Ho thus describes the movement :
He was still a minister of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and a member of the Black
River Conference. He had labored for several
years in New York, was instrumental in the
erection of a church edifice known as Trinity
M. E. Church, but was compelled to leave Now
York in obedience to the authorities of the
Church. On his return, a number of gentle
men, without consulting him, had hired a hall
on the corner of Thirty-ninth street and Broad
way, and fitted it up for a place to worship,
and invited him to preach for them. Before
coming to New York the Bishop of the Cower
ence informed him that he had no authority to
organize a tegular Methodist Episcopal Church
in New York. He - (Rev. Mr. Mattison) re
sponded that if such was the case, he should
not attempt to do so, and for two years he had
strenuously opposed the organization of a
Church. At a subsequent meeting of the
brethren, they resolved to organize a Church,
naming it "The First Independent Methodist
Church ;" they adopted the general rules, doc
trine, and most of the Discipline of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church. He would have the
public know that he was not the settled pastor
of the Church, but would serve the society un
til the meeting of the next Conference. As to
the great moral questions that were agitating
the Church and the nation, they had adopted
the rules of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
which forbade the buying or selling of men,
women and children,
with an intention to en
slave them, and also the declaration of opinion
that the holding of human beings, with the in
tention to use them as chattels, was contrary
to the laws of God, and inconsistent with the
golden rule.
