The Duty of the North.
The fact stares us plainly in the face
that James Buchanan, once the favorite
son of Pennsylvania, is guilty of TREASON
in supplying the South with arms belong
ing to the United States. Whilst the
Northern Arsenals have been almost en
tirely stript of public arms, we have not
even been able to obtain the quota belong
ing to us of right. In order to secure
our rights, we hope the Legislature of
-Penntiyivania, which meets on Tuesday
next, will at once• appropriate A MILLION
or DOLLARS for the purchase of arms to
supply our regular citizen soldiers with
the necessary weapons to perfect them in
military discipline. We shall have no
trouble to obtain the • money - without de
lay, and the Constitution gives the Legis
lature full power to borrow any amount
for such purposes. We say, therefore, to
the members of the Legislature, let such
an act be passed the first week of the ses
sion. It will strike terror in the ranks of
the disunionists of the South, and shoW
them that the North is determined to PRE
SERVE THE UNION one and inseparable.
The time for action has arrived—let the
freemen of the North at once prepare to
repel any aggression that may be made by
the rebels of the South. One determined
show to speak and fight for the Union
will do more towards allaying the excite
ment in the South than all the Union
meetings held in the North. The North
has more right to complain than the
South. Innocent white men traveling
in the South are daily murdered in cold
blood, or maltreated, whilst the Southern
men go unmolested wherever they travel,
and are treated like gentlemen if they be
have themselves as such. The day of
"concession" has passed, and those who
have heretofore been timid now admit
that a determined show of resistance, and
a firm stand for the Union, must be taken•
The Southern fire-eaters will soon discover
that their Northern sympathisers are very
few indeed.
An Item for Union-Savers.
We have frequently asserted that the
farcical Union saving demonstrations at
the North are ridiculed by the Southern
fire-eaters. As another evidence of the
fact we copy the following letter, publish
ed in the Baltimore 'American," written
by a Charleston correspondent. We com
mend it to, the "conservative" gentlemen
who participated in the late Union meet
ing in this city, and made such a humilia
ting plea to the South Carolina traitors to
stay in the Union. They will no doubt
read the letter with interest :
"I have heard a great deal said of the 'Union'
or 'Southern Concession' meetings they are
having up in the North. For all the good they
will do they may as well never have been held,
and the breath expended on them may as well
have been put to some better nee. The people
of South Carolina have determined their course.
The die has been cast—the Rubicon is pass:d—
and the shouts of tens of millions of people,
nay, the united voices of every man, woman
and child living north of Maim and Dixon's
would avail nothing in bringing about a
re-action of sentiment. The late Philadelphia
meeting, represented in the dispatches to have
been Attended by tens of thousands of people,-
is laughed at,, as are all other efforts tending to
conciliate the South. The people here claim to
be above compromise. They stand upon digni
ty, and refuse to compromise themselves, Pride
and love of power is a characteristic of the South
Carolinian. He cannot be driven, and he won't
be cajoled. If he can't hold the reins, he will
let the steeds dash on to destruction. Thus it
is now ; pride rejects all overtures of concilia
tion. It Is thought that you must be reduced
to direful straits to advance concessions, and
the spirit of revenge alone would induce a re
jection of proposals of every kind."
A Coward and Traitor.
The chivalric Mr. Miles, who recently
left his seat in Congress to take his seat
in the South Carolina Secession Conven
tion, said in that body, that in a conver
sation, and subsequently in a written
communication, Mr. Buchanan was told
by the South Carolina members, "if you
send a solitary soldier to these parts, the
instant the intelligence reaches our people
—and sue wit/ take care that it does reach
'lts before he reaches the forts—THE FORTS
WILL BE TAKEN, because it is necessary to
our safety and self-preservation." And
it was to this insolent menace that the
miserable old imbecile who occupies the
post of Chief Magistrate of this great Re
public, and Commander-in-Chief of its
Army and Navy, basely succumbed, and
ignominiously shrunk from his duty.
Calhoun and the Union.
That the eminent statesman John C.
Calhoun, the better part of whose life was
devoted to building up the power of the
United States . , which some of his success
ors would appear to be bent on destroying,
did not.look to a separation of the Union
as an event within the limits of possibili.
ty, we have remarkable testimony in a
report of a conversation with him as re
cently as 1846. It will be found in a
somewhat curious volume,. entitled "The
Statesmen of America in 1846, by Sarah
Mytton Maury." This lady, related to
the, family of the eminent geographer,
visited this country a few years ago, and
occupied herself very much during her
stay with the study of our eminent pub
lic men. She was admitted to intimacy
with several of the most distinguished,
especially among the Democratic politi
cians, and her book reports their table
talk and opinions with considerable mi
nuteness. With Mr. Calhoun she seems
to have been an especial fall:lite, in the
enjoyment of the most frank and cordial
intimacy. In the course of this acquaint
ance the following dialogue occurred,
well worthy of attention at this moment.
We give it in her own language :
"'Mr. Calhoun,' said I, speaking of America,
'you are a great experiment.'
"'We are more,' said he;
hit,'
"'Will the Atlantic and the Pacific States be
divided into separate Republics ?'
"'They cannot De ; the Mississippi, a great
inland sea, will keep them united. THE UNION
IS INDISSOLUBLE.' "
It may possibly clinch this testimony
with a certain order of minds, that this
lady's book is dedicated "To the Honora
ble James Buchanan," then Secretary of
State. The Charlestonians would tar and
feather Calhoun now, if he were living,
we presume, for, the utterance of such a
declaration.
Republicanism and Democracy:
The home organ of Mr. LINCOLN, in
contrasting the position of the two part
ies on the great issues of the day, says
that we, the Republican party, stand by
the Constitution and the laws of Con
gress, determined that the provisions of
the one shall not be violated nor the other
disobeyed. We would not coerce a State
into holding seats in Congress, Post Of
fices, Judgeships, Marshalships, nor any
thing of the kind. We would not em
ploy force against such harmless seces
sion. But we will exhaust every resource
in our hands for the enforcement of the
laws against any and all who disregtrd
them—North or South—East or West.
Now, gentleman Democrats, what is your
position ? Are you in favor of the Union ?
Are you in - favor of maintaining the Con
stitution and enforcing the laws of Con
gress ? Will you stand by the President
elect in the discharge of his constitutional
duties ? Are you in favor of protecting
the forts, arsenals and other property of
the United States against unlawful sei
zure ? Are you in favor of enforcing
the law for the rendition of fugitives from
justice or labor in the States of this
Union, South Carolina not excepted?
Let us hear from you on these points.—
We respectfully request yon to place your
selves on one side or the other of this
Union question.
The Right Spirit
We learn from the Pittsburg papers
that large and enthusiastic meetings of
the people have been held in various parts
of Allegheny county, at which resolutions
against any concession of Republican prin
ciples in the present crisis were adopted.
Our friends in old Allegheny take the
right position. A Union meeting was also
held'in Washington county a few days ago.
It was attended by men of all parties, and
the proceedings indicate a determination
to vindicate the Constitution and the Laws,
by the prompt suppression of "revolution
ary resistance to the Government of the
Union." It cannot be denied that nine
tenths of the people of this State are op
posed to making any concessions to the
South, either by yielding all their rights
to personal liberty, or by suffering a dis
ruption of the Confederacy, in open viola
tion of the letter and spirit of the Constitu
tion. ' We hope there will be no cowardly
bending of the knee at this important
period, when the "rule or ruin" party
is trembling at the handwriting on the
wall. In this "impending crisis" we want
men of nerve, men of integrity and spirit,
to maintain the supremacy of the laws,
and repel the invaders of our personal lib
erty.
ALAS POOR TEXAS This State has
been, begging from the United States for
years past, and her public debt has been
paid by the freemen of the North. She
is now one of the States that threatens to
secede. Let her go, in God's name ! Six
months hence she will, like South Caroli
na, be knocking at the door of the old
family circle of States, praying for re-ad•
mission into this Union, after havitig dis
graced and ruined herself politically and
financially.

FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL.
Corrcopowlenee of the Telegraph.]
WASHINGTON Dec. 27, 1860
South Carolina has reached the pinnacle of her
presumption, and her cup of impudence is over
flowing. These extremes are accomplished by the
arrival of her Commissioners, whose presence
was announced last evening—the Commission
being composed of Messrs ORR, BARNWELL and
Ansms—by themselves,very congenial men at the
festive board, but their cause excites daily less
consideration and attention from those who
have the true interests of the South really "at
heart." The Commissioners have rented a
large house.in "Franklin Row," situated in.
the vicinity of the White House, and they have
stocked the cellar of their house with a large
variety of choice liquors, while the larder is
to be under the supervision of one of the most
experienced butlers of the metropolis. The
house is elegantly furnished, and the Commis
sioners evidently anticipate a good time treating
with the Northern barbarians; who, in their es
timation, have so ruthlessly refused them the
privilege of trading in human flesh, protected
by the stars and stripes, or forbid them to carry
their slaves into free territory, and claim the
justification and sanction of the Constitution.
But the Commissioners now declare that they
do not desire to refer to past grievances. They
are all buried and forgotten. What they want
is recognition as a nation, from a Republic whose
essence and the spirit of whose laws they have
despised and violated from the day of its or
ganization, to this the hour-of its despondency
and despair. Such is the position of the South
Carolina Commissioners, respecting the feeling
of the nation of South Carolina. Like the
representatives of all foreign nations, the com
missioners have flung to the " breeze the Pal
metto banner, which seems to float in mock de
fiance of the glorious flag which even now
streams above the domes and battlements of
the Federal metropolis. The commissioners
intend to make a formal demand on the Presi
dent for recognition in a few days, and it is as
serted that Mr. Buchanan will at once refer the
whole subject, in a special message, to Con
gress. When that is done, many people here
believe that the message and proposition of
traitors from South Carolina will be laid on the
table. So far, the Speaker of the House has
refused to strike the names of the retired South
Carolina delegation from the list of members
—thus refusing to recognize this rebellion as a
'we are a great
legal right or a constitutional proceeding.
James L. Orr has always been a radical as
well as a rabid Democrat, and while a member
of Congress, supported his party with the zeal
of a true fire-eater. Mr. Orr was speaker of
the last Congress, in which capacity he was re
garded with respect more for his ability than
his impartiality.
R. W. Barnwell, has no other record than
that of being connected with a family repre
senting the extreme ideas of the slave-ocracy.
He is a hearty hater of the mud-sills of the
North, despises all who labor for a living, re
garding them as only slaves, and as incapable
of self-government. He and his family are
strenuous advocates for the establishment of
either a military dictatorship or an hereditary
monarchy for South Carolina.
Jariaga 117 --- AdaMS was the late Governor of
the late State of South Carolina, and is a fair
specimen of the fire-eating chivalry of the
South. He is an avowed and determined ad
vocate of the re-opening of the African slave
trade, by the advocacy of which he alone has
succeeded in making a record in South Caroli-
I have thus hastily and briefly given you an
idea of the South Carolina Commissioners.—
They are certainly the boldest traitors that ever
insulted a respectable government with their
treason. In their house, or castle, they are en
gaged in concocting their plans of revolution
and sedition, while "the women of the su
burbs" crowd their parlors, and the gamblers
of the Avenue partake of the luxuries of their
larder and cellar. Truly treason is cheap in
"the land of the free and the home of
brave." INQUIRER.
Comes LAW CASE.—A novel question at law
has been brought before a justice of the peace
in Montville, Ct. Mr. Church's hen " set"
for a week upon sixteen eggs, when Mr. Tink
er's turkey came along, drove off the hen, fin
ished the incubation, hatched out the chickens
and trotted them home, upon Ifr. Tinker's
premises. Mr. Church brought an action of
trover for the chickens, claiming them on. the
ground that his hen laid the eggs and did the
best part of the setting. The case was fairly
tried, with eminent legal talent on each side,
and judgement was given for plaintiff to re
cbver eight cents a piece for the chickens.
LIGHT IN A DARK PLACE.-A meeting in the
Spartansburg District, South Carolina, a few
days previous to the election, adopted the fol
lowing resolution :
Resolved, That, according to our opinion;
South Carolina is now acting rather hastily ;
that the Convention was called prematurely,
that the meeting of the Convention should not
have taken place until the middle of January
or the first of February, so that the course the
other Southern States will pursue might be
known.
SAN FRANCISCO TAKES THE HAT.—The latest
mention of the fertile Golden State is a plan to
make white dogs useful. Your San Franciscan
seizes his white cur, and with stencil-plate and
black ink, inscribes his business card upon
each side of the wretched pup, and sends him
forth, a quadrupedal locomotive advertisement
—a doggerotype of the fast people of a fast
country, in a fast age. It is reckoned that a
lively dog will be worth five dollars per day, or
equal to a quarter of a column in a newspaper.

'Mr. BRIM said the object was a speedy organi

Mr. MEMIUNGIa said that at the secret session
yesterday the Committee to whom was referred
the rosolutions regarding citizenship, reported
that every person resident in South Carolina at
the time of secession, whether born residents
or naturalized, should be declared citizens of
South Carolina until death, unless a foreign
residence was established, or they had not de

free whites from within the territory or out
side, whose fathers were then citizens ; also all
persons of any one of the United States who,
within twelve months after the secession, shall

meeting. The South Carolina Commissioners
are in conference with the members of the
Cabinet. They declare that unless the troops
are withdrawn this shall be their last interview,
and they will immediately return to SOuth
Carolina and prepare for the worst.
Baton Meeting in Baltimore
The meeting held at Barnum's Hotel last
night; so far from being a secession gathering,
as was reported, was an informal assemblage
of our merchants, members of the bar, and
others, to devise such measures as might be
deemed necessary to the honor and interests of
Maryland in the present threatening aspect of
affairs. It was composed of conservative Union
loving citizens, but the privacy with which the
proceedings were conducted gave an impression
that it was of an opposite character.
Union Meeting at Memphis.
Lotrisvms, Dec. 28
A dispatch from Memphis states that an im
mense and enthusiastic Union Meeting was
held there last night, and addressed by Neill
S. Brown and others. Resolutions were passed
opposing separate State secession and coercion,

SPRINGFIELD, ILL., DEC. 28.
Senator Baker, of Oregon, was publicly re
ceived by his friends yesterday afternoon, at
the Court House. The hall was densely crowd

an hour in its delivery, he expresses the earnest
devotion of himself and his constituents to the
Union ; scouted the idea of an independent
Pacific republic, and declared, emphatically,
that the Union would be preserved, and the
Federal laws executed both North and South.
His remarks were warmly applauded.
Mass Meeting at Pittsburg.
From the Commercial Journal of this morning.]
The greatest meeting that was ever held in
Pittsburg, assembled at the Court Rouse yes
terday. 'Not less than ten thousand men were
on the ground—men who are prepared to de
fend the Union, the Constitution and the laws.
We point with pride to the resolutions which
appear in another column of this morning's
paper. There speaks the heart of the great Re
publican party. The Law, gentlemen of South
Carolina, the law as promulgated by the au
thorities which we and you helped to elect!
By their decrees, though disagreeable to us, we
abide, and we shall see you doing the same
thing within a year. We plant our feet, we
the mighty mass of people in this great hive of
industry, plant our feet firmly, on the rock of
the Constitution, and the gates of hell shall
not prevail against it. Rebels, traitors every
where may rest assured that if the country
shall call upon us to turn out and defend the
Union when it shall be attacked by them, as
we said yesterday, we shall be there.
Thrice is he armed, who has his quarrel just.
And he is naked though ice cod up in steel
Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
