    for you must know, if you know anything,
that there is a plan on foot to break up the
Senate by a mob, and thus prevent the declara
tion of the election of Lincoln and Hamlin.--
You should not sit-atill and suffer this to be
done, as Mr. Secretary Floyd, though warned
In time, suffered the John Brown raid to be put
In execution. March up to your duty, and de
liver the government intact to your successor,
and posterity will forgive you your many and
heinous sins against your manifest duty, as
Chief Magistrate of this great Republic.
Will you do it? Or, will you, like Erostra-
Aus, put a torch to the temple of our liberties,
and go down to history, execrated as a traitor
to freedom ? The time is short. You must an
swer at once, not only to your own conscience,
but to your countrymen,.and to the still more
awful bar of the King of Kings. Your pro
clamation, calling on the nation to fast and
-Mb -after the deed of disruption is done, will
not save you. Wake up from the dangers that
nnw threaten to logulf, not only the country,
but the traitors with it, and put on the ormor
of Federal authority, and send forth the shout
.from end of the land to the other, that "The
Federal Union mutt and shall be preserved 1"
and it will be done. When this is done, then
the Government can consider the complaints of
the people, and adjust them upon the basis of
right, and in peace and quiet—Balt. Patriot.

More Outrages in the South.
A,aeounts reach us every day of violent
punishments inflicted upon Northern. men
by self-constituted "Vigilance Commit
tees," and other irresponsible organiza
tions, pvetendinoto represent the interests
of the South. A prominent citizen of
Chicago, a member of the Board of Trade,
went to New Orleans recently on busi
ness, but was waited upon at midnight at
his hotel by members of the "Southern
Protection Society," and ordered to leave
town immediately, Re had not said a
word 'about slavery, and the only excuse
his ,petseoutors gave him for their conduct
was that they had been informed by some
body that he had a brother in Missouri
who is an active Republican. Another
gentleman, a citizen of Cincinnati, who
had gone down to New Orleans with half
a million of dollars to buy sugar, was in
like manner waited on ind compelled to
leave, because, as they were informed by
same person, he had a son who is in some
way connected with the Cincinnati Ga
zette, a "Rim* Republican" sheet.'
A gentleman on his way .northward
through Mississippi, saw two dead men
hanging on a tree, and the people there*.
,b,oute being asked what it meent,,they re
plied that they ' , had been talking-to nig
gitos;" and on being asked why they did
not bury them, replied they "wouldn't
bury any d—d abolitionists on their soil
—would rather see 'em rot."
Prof. 0. B. Mitchell, the astronomer,
narrowly escaped lynching while riding in
the cars through Jackson, Miss., having
exasperated a drunken Southerner by
saying that he thought Lincoln would do
no injustice to the South, When the
train halted at Jackson the Southerner
jumped to the platform and shouted to
thp crowd about the stations "There's a
d—d Abolitionist on the train 1 Lynch
idm I Lynch him !" Instantly at least
fifty men jumped on and commenced a
search for the offensive specimen of
Northern opinion; but before the Profes
sor could be pointed out, the conductor,
seeing the danger, pulled his cord-bell
and the cars moved off, and with them the
Professor with a whole skin.
An Irishman named Richard Lisson
was placed in the look-up in New Orleans,
who had been tarred and feathered and
ridden on a rail in the town of Handboro,'
Miss., by the Vigilance Committee there,
who have already hung a suspected Abo
litionist named Macintosh, and have in
jell soother named David Magner. The
committee sent Limon on from Mississippi,
by the steamer Creole, consigned to
the New Orleans police, with the request
that lut be passed on northward. Lisson,
who is a gardener, says he never thought
of interfering with the slaves, and that
he less arrested because he expressed in
digeetion at the arrest of Magner. A
system of black-mail is carried on in New
Orleans by scoundrels who have taken ad
ulators of the timorousness of certain
persons, both residents and strangers, by
threatening to denounce them as abolition
hits, these rascals have fraudulently rep-
resented themselves to be members of the
Southern Vigilance Committee, andUre be
lieved to have raised considerable money.
The St. Charles Hotel, at New Orleans,
seems to be the especial headq,usiters of
a 44i of. desperadsos who embrace every
upporA unity like the present to curtail
their liquor expenses, apd add to their
unenviable notoriety. rt is said the St.
Markel is continually haunted by noiay,
mi-intoxicated men, whose- principal
business in these times of civil commotion
is to watch the register, and scent out
Madan vietimp fur abuse and outrage.
Bit the following; from the Memphbi
am pl e of Dettribor i lOU
show that New Orleans is in great danger
of losing the laurels of which, we thought
a fety days ago, it would be almost im
possible to deprive her. There is a post
office village in Coehoma county, Mis
sisippi, called Friar's Point, which is rap.
idly looming into first class importance :
Intense Abolition Excitement at Friar's
Point, Mississippi
FOURTEEN GIN HOUSES BUSIED IN SIX WEEKS-AC
TION OF THE VIGILANCE COMMITTEE-THREE NOR
THERN MECHANICS HUNG AND BURNED - CONFIR-
MATION OF THE BARREL STATEMENT PUBLISHED A
FEW DATE SINCE-NORTHERN MEN BRANDED AND
SENT OP THE RIVER-SWORN VENGEANCE OP THE
''VIGILANCE cominTrzE.''
The following letter from Friar's Point, writ
ten by Mr. Samuel J. Halle, of the firm of Ber
lin & Halle, clothiers, on Front Row, in this
city, fully explains itself :
FRIAR'S Pourr, Miss., Dec. 11, 1860.
25 the Editor of the Daily Argus :
There is great: excitement in this community.
The people are in arms against the Northern
men who have been in the country but a few
months. On yesterday evening two gins and a
negro quarter were fired simultaneously, doubt
less by the procurement of these wretches. The
night was lit up for miles around. The Vigil
ance Committee were soon under arms, and
proceeded to the room of three carpenters, one
by the name of Hamlin, the others unknown,
and took them and hung them to the first tree,
and afterward cut them down and burned them!
The town is now. under arms, the military are
parading the streets, and all is excitement and
alarm. This morning the remainder of the
Northern men were sent up the river on the
steamer Peytona ; some of them were branded
with the letters, G. B. (gin burners.) before
shipped. Fourteen gins have been burned in
this county during the last six weeks, and the
people have determined to stop it.
An Abolitionist was hanged, barrelled up and
rolled into the river at this point last week, and
it was probably to avenge his death that the
last gins were fired. A negro implicated the
men who were hung.
The Vigilance Committee have sworn to hang
every Northern man who comes here from this
time until the fourth of March, and all such
had better be in h-1 than Friar's Point.
SAMUEL J. HALLS.
This document seems to be well au
thenticated, and exhibits a condition of
affairs frightful to contemplate. The
South has much cause for complaint, but
will such steps as these effect the desired
ends ? Will they not, on the contrary,
provoke a spirit of revenge ? Barreling
men and rolling them into the river savors
of barbarism and brutal ferocity. The
hanging and burning of three mechanics
on the testimony of a frightened negro is
something worthy the careful considera
tion of *our Southern friends. Persever
eine in such a course as this will certainly
leacl to retaliation, and a feeling of hostil- '
ity betwien Northern and Southern men
would 'be engendered exceeding in bitter
ness that existing between the people of
Venice and the Austrian soldiery. No
thing is so horrible as the utter absence
of lair. A mob May_occasionally redress
some great grievance; bat, in ninety-nine
cases out emir) , liiindied, it inflicts irre
parable injury upon the community in
which it occurs. What are termed
"Vigilance Committees" are generally in
the hands ,of the very men least calculated
to decide the questions submitted to them
for adjudication. The law often operates
as a hardship, but it is almost invariably
a positive blessing when compared with
the philosophy of a reckless mob.
The Union-Saving Meeting.
The Committee of Thirty-Three, ap
pointed by the late preliminary "Union
Meeting," meet to-night to prepare row
inflow. We commend to their considera
tion an article on the first page of this
paper, addressed "To, JAMES EVORRNAN )
PRESIDENT OE THE UNITED STATES,"
which embodies the right kind of senti
ments. Instead of attempting to save the
Union by making humiliating concessions
•to insolent Southern dictators and traitors,
let the meeting to be held to-morrow eve
ning call upon the President to perform
ma duty, and take measures to crush out
the disunion traitors who are now in open
rebellion against the government. So far
as the Republicans of the North are con
cerned they have no concessions to make;
and timid "dirt-eaters" who attempt to
lower the Republican standard, or muti--
late the Chicago Platform„will subject
themselves to the scorn and contempt of
every honest man in our ranks.

FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL.
Corn. initet.c.: of the Telegraph.]
There are more strange things and mysteri
ous events in the history of this country, than
is presented by any other nation in the short
space of fine eu yt ars less than three-quarters of
a century. Calculating from the enunciation
of the Declaration if independence, July 4, ,
177 G, the 'Lipid glides e have made in pupu
lather and the expamion of our territory, are
unprecedented in the history of any laud, since
Belshazzar was startled by the ominous hand
writing on the walls of his bacchanalian palace.
Going back from 177 G to that frosty trimming
when the Pilgrim Fathers kneeled on the roll
rock of Plymouth, and from then tracing our
history forward to the battle of Lexington, there
is a fund of melancholy truth and ominous
warning in even the early transactions of our
Pilgrim Fathers which looms up now to reproach
tho nation for its intolerance and its crimes.—
The first act of the earliest settlers on this con
tinent, was the corruption, degradation and ex
termination of the aboriginies. The Spaniards
in the South, fired with a lust for gold, made
short work of their part of this abominable
plan, while the Puritans at the North, inflarnefl
with a religious zeal that engendered a passion
equally as fierce as the lust for gold, coznmenc
ed the work of exterminating the red, as they
perfected their arrangements for the enslaving,
brutalization and oppression of the black man.
The most careless reader of history has not for
gotten how generously we treated the Indian—
how we partook of the rude hospitality of his
wig-wam, bought his 'land and paid for it in
whisky, and when the whisky had aroused his
passions, then Puiitanical indignation and re
seutment were also aroused, and the red mart
became a savage, a demon, worthy only- of the
cold steel and hot lead of some fanatical Miles
Standish. The poor Indian has been driven from
his hunting grounds, and swept into the Pacific.
From being made a demon by Puritan fire
water he has become as useless as an idiot by
the influence and training of civilization. To
all intents and purposes he has been extermi
nsted. Those who are -left of his race, can
scarcely repeat the legendary lore of the red
man's powers or the beauty of his squaw.
, In their
stead we have multiplied another iace on this
continent, not warriors, hunters, medicine men
and orators, but of alms. And all this has been
done in little less than a century for its full de
velopment, and not altogether two centuries
from the commencement of the introduction of
the African and the extermination of the Indian.
One race enslaved and brutalized and another
extinguished by a nation yet in its infancy, is a
work of atrocity which certainly cannot go on
without the interference and notice of the AL
mighty—and yet in these days of modern im
provement, chivalry and resentments, it is
deemed fanatical to insist that there is a God
who notices the armies of nations as well as
men, and who will punish both as certain 'labia
inflexible justice . predominates in Heaven as
well as on earth 1
One of the consoling arguments with which
the South bolsters up its courage to proceed in
this 'present work of destroying the 'Union, is
the immense value of their cotton crop. They
depend on this cotton to supply all their wants,
to support all their machinery of government,
in case they erect a government of their own,
and finally to make them the wealthiest people
in the world. In the first place, it is a notori
ous fact that from the very influence of slavery
alone the people of the South do not-under
stand the mysteries of either financial, commer
cial or mechanical fineness. The white man
is taught from his infancy to despise labor, so
that he grows np, a dependent being in every
respect. But leaving these facts for the exami
nation of the power which the cotton crops be
stow on the people of the South in a financial
sense, we arrive at the following figures and
conclusions
The last census shows a population of 4,000,-
000 slaves at the South, which number, at an
average cost of $25 per head per year, require
$100,900,000 for their support for one year.—
Of the white population there are only 400,000
taxables, who at an average of $5OO per year,
would require $200,000,000 for their support—
amounting for whites and blacks, is one year,
just $800,000,00Q--while the value of this
boasted cotton crop is only $250,000,000.
Where does this balance against the South, of
$50,000,000 come from, and who makes up
the deficiency ? There-is no enterprise or busi
ness in the South to supply this deficiency—no
business even to support the mail routes thro'
their territory,—and, therefore this deficieney of
$50,000,600 must come from the free: white
labor of 'the North in various ways, and thro`
channels which have been pouring vigor and
strength into every southern community since
-he Union was formed. And yet the politi
cians of the South talk of severing their con
nection with a confederacy in which-is reposed
not only their political existence but their busi
ness and social safety. _
