HARRISBURG, ,PA:
Friday Afternoon, January, 18. 1861.
The Present State of the World.
The world at the present time, says the
Buffalo Commercial, presents an intereat
ing aspect. The elements are in unusual
commotion. There are wars andrumors•
of wars. Events have just transpired,
and others are transpiring which • must
mutertalty,affeet tlie destinies of the world;
and which constitute the present an epoch
in the world's history. There is evident
ly guitig on a contest between the old and
antiquated order of things and a new, pro
g re , sive element; between despotism and
Iteedum ;_ between the narrow exclusive
policy by which "mountains interposed
made'enenties of nations," and thatcom6
prehlsuive liberal policy_ that recognize!
the Universal- brotherhciod. And it. is
gratifying.to observe a general triumph of
the new oyder of things.
China has just been the theatre of a
struggle in which the haughty spirit of
that old Empire has been humbled by the
arms of England and France. Here a
blow has beeti struck whose' results must
be on the side of progress. By the terms
of the treaty more of that ancient country
is opened to trade and intercourse with
foreign nations ; a British minister is
henceforth to reside in the capital; and
the interdict is removed on emigration.--
These treaty stipulations cannot be other
wise than _beneficial to China, whateier
by their. influence upon the rest of the
world._ Heretofore,. while the policy cif
the gevernment has been non4ntercourse
with strangers at home, emigration has
been forbidden, and been looked upon by
a majority of the people as directly con
trary to their religious creed. With the
exception of a few enticed to California,,
and now and then a straggler to some
other portions of the globe, the mass have
been found clinging to their homes with an
immovable obitinaey. This old order of
things has been broken in upon, and in
fluences are now at work that will finally
break clown the barrier that. has so long
separated them from the rest of the na
tions, and produce for China the most im
portant results.
If we turn to Europe, we-find a- simi
lar contest going on between the old and
new' order of things, with:even more
gratifying results. Russia has just usher
ed in the year 1861 with a most magnifi
cent triumph over the barbarisms of a
past age, the abolition of serfdom. On
the auspicious morning of the first `day of
the new year, forty millions of serfs felt
their shackles fall to the ground and walk
ed forth in the conscionaAgiii i ty of free
men. '
Holland has recently peri t e4lll an ar
rangement by which slavery expires in
her colonies. France is moving forward
in the cause of reform, and graniing her
people ,a large liberty. As the world
knows, Italy has just, been breaking' her
bonds and freeing herself from the grasp
of despotism. In Austria- the -elements
are in commotion, a storm is evidently
provinces, for those rights , of which they
have so long been deprived. And appear-
anon favor the oppressed. The dismem
berment of Austria, and the overthrow of
that ancient despotism is seriously threat
ened.
A. similar contest has for some time
existed on this side of the Atlantic. In
Mexico the struggle has been between
priestly despotism, and a new liberal and
progressive policy. That long and bloody
contest has just been decided in favor of
the liberal party and the progressive poll-,
cy. The conflict that is going on in'our
own country is of a similar kind. What
ever may be the immediate cause of . the
present disturbed state of our political
affairs, and whatever blame may attach to
different parties concerned, it is apparent
to all-41104-is-essentially the Baum con
tesVult-ip being waged in other parts of
the w0i14,:4-is c s,war between the old and
new order bi things. It is'a rising up of
the old spirit of a past barbarous age;
against a new and more liberal policy.--;
Which shall. triumph in the end, time
must determitio;.:We ire strong in the
faithloiveter, the,ethirworld is not to go
back Ward.

MINI
Words of Soberness from-the South.
- -
It is comforting, - amid the bravado of
the rampant 'Seeessionists of the Yr.ncey
school, to find that the wisdom of the
fathers of the Republic is not all gone,
Hon. John P. King, of Augustus, Geor
gia, one of the ablest men in that State,
hat published a series of articles in the
Georgia Constitutionalist, against Seces
sion In one of these articles, ho says :
This panic has already cost our planters mil

if it Contiuries lolg, - intirat - firove disastrous to afl
classes, and to the debtor class must be attend
ed•with absolute ruin. I wish to sbow that no
immediate danger is to us threatened ; that so
far as any 'material interest is Concerned, the
daoger is remote and contingent. The , equality
in the Terrilories—the main question-involved
-is practically a , mere - abstraction,' and, .by
many, of our greatestyficintbein „jtatesmen,
be
lieved to be of little importance 'To the South:
This claim, as a constitutional right, is of a re
cent origin. It was not insisted on even in the
angry discussion on the Missouri Compromise.
Its justice, howevet, was none : the less clear,
and the cla im 'should-not be surrendered: Our
grievance, from the election of Lincoln, is not
one of, tangible and immediate wrong to our
interests. It is only an evidence on which we
ground,,an apprehension of future wrong. It is
'evidence,. but not conelusive evidence. The
election of Lincoln is more an insult than
an injury_`- It does not touch a single interest
that would not have been equally exposed un
der any President. lam not indifferent, how
ever, to the outrages of those States who have
violated the social compact by hostile legisla
tion. But I would not adopt a Japanese plan
of redress, and rip open my own , bowels, -but
punish the guilty parties.
' This we - can do better in the Union than out
°fit.We . can make theM continue to oontri
bute to our nation d strength and resources,
whilst we can make them pay for their own per
fidy and folly Our 'complaint is against the
perfidy of States, not against.the government of
the Union. It was the perfidy of States that
called the Union into existenue. The Union
cemented these faithless, jealous, sectional
bodies together ; and from objects f contempt
when separated, they rapidly grew into une of
the most powerful and prosperous nations on
the earth. Let us keep cool. "The best tour-
- age' is tempered with caution." The inflamma
tory appeals.of some of our orators have excited
the people to madness, and we see and feel the
effects 'upon our material interests, of the panic
-treated, in view of,the "reign of terror, anarchy
and blood," whiCh they tell is upon Ir. lam

who have been goading the masses to this work
of ruin: Look at the - addressnf Mr.- Cobb, a
citizen of - high standing—a man of talents, a
prominent lawyer, and Christian ! Conjectnres
Without reason, assertions without proof, .con
elusions without premises I No revolutionary
harangue of Desmoulins, Denton or Cautbon
was ever better calculated to stir-up an excited
population to anarchy and blood ! "A revolt

every, secession speech ? "Free by virtue of
Lincoln's election!" Who told them so,„except

While the secession Aide
the people who first put it into practical
operation are reaping the reward of their
folly. There are, reliable assurances, thro'
private sources, that South Carolina is
fast drifting into anarchy. The rulers,
who have excited the fiercest passions of
the people, already find themselves unable
‘to control those passions. With business
panlyzed, money scarce, .currency depre
ciated and depreciating, the people are
becoming dissatisfied and turbulent. An
ictual state of war, and a military despo
tism, only can restore order in the suffer
ing, sorrowing State, and keep the pre
sent rulers in power. At present, every
man looks upon his neighbor with suspi
cion-, and private miliceis satiated through
political pretences, and daily outrages,
sometimes of an atrocious character, are
.perpetrated. Good citizens are maltreated
and sometim

udder pretence that they are Abolitionists
or Union men. The same condition of
things is more or less apparent in the
other States that have united, or are uni
ting themselves, with South Carolina.—
They are fast drifting into anarchy, fear
ful anarchy, in which the evil passions
now raving in fury against the North will
be leveled at each other. The politicsans
who have deliberately instigated this re.:
solution, though they may triumph for
the hour, will find that they have'raised a
whirlwind for the destruction of themselves
and the people they have deceived.

muskets ; to Alabama, 15,000 Muskets ;
to Georgia, 20,000 muskets, to Louisi
ana, 30,000 muskets; to North Carolina,
25,000 muskets. This is one of the evi
dences that the Secessioniels, have long
meditated - disunion and civil war, and
provided themselves, as best they -could,
out of the Federal resources. We think
that, before they get through with their
treasonable scheme, they'll find that most
of those pilfered muskets will kick.
From the Springfield (Idase.),Republican
A Sbringfield Man in Georgia.
Mr. John D. McKnight of Tilly, Haynes &
Co's. great clothing house in this city, return
ed last Saturday evening after a two weeks'
absence, having been to Georgia on business.
He was in Georgia, at Savannah and Macon,
for only a week, and although confining him
a It to these principal towns, he says no one
who has not been there can imagine the strict
espionage that exists over all strangers no
matter how quietly they deport themselves.
His name was registered as ftom New York,
that being safer than to acknowledge a resi
dence in Massachusetts, and yet the crowd
would gather, even in the leading hotel of Sa
vannah
, to discuss together over his name, to
scrutinize him and-poiet him out, and to ex
press, as well in words as looks, their deep hos
tility to any one from the-North. At one time,
in one of these crowds, words ran high, and he
heard himself called a " d—d Government
coercer," sent to spy them out and point out,
at some future time, the active' leaders in se
cession..'-So it seems they duly consider the
poacibility - uf - a — IU-tatro—apt..4,ll -fur- high
treason, and the need, therefore, of tuatding
against evidence being got against them.
At Macon his style of coat led people - to
think that he was a Yankee, and but for his
having a friend there, who answered for him,
he might have been troubled. He was in
Macon only a day, and yet probably half the
town asked his friend who.be was,and whether
it would be safe to let him remain. One thing
however, he was informed of, that he could
by no possibility be allowed to go further
west, or into the, interior. On the railroad
train there 'were sharp , eyes , upon , him, and he
felt at every station the danger of arrest by a
local Vigilance 'Committee. Indeed, he says,
he never in his life felt so lost,.so constantly
apprehenelve of cowardly attack, and -SO self
he - was among untamed savages. The looks,`
speech and manners of the Georgians were
wild. They talked furiously, and - all of the
same tenor—that they wanted "no compro
mise," but only the independence of the
South and to whip the Yankee Abolitionists.
Trade was at a comPlete stand-still in all except
fire-arms, and he heard. a. man say he had
bought the last pistol to be had at any of the
stores in Savannah.- •
While he was in that city, Fort Pulaski was
taken, and the revenue cutter Dobbin seised.
The military were in constant m•tion. 'The
'ed wih posters paFtg_jhe
" 0 wls," "Rattlesnakes," "Alligators,""" Ea
gles," and other secret organizations, to be in•
their "nests" at a certain hour. It was impos
sible for hith. to get copies of Savannah papers.
The hotel-keepers would not supply the read
ing of them, but would even take them away
when got. On the steamer in which he_came
to New York :Were som'e seventy pssengere,
including all kinds of people, and Northern
men who relnesented a residence in all the
Gulf States. There was never seen a happier
set of men than that on the " State of Georgia,"
as it steamed out of , Savannah river. Men
Whom he bad heard in the city proclaiming as
loudly as any for secession, and denouncing
Massachusetts, now lifted up their voices for
v er y joy ; and there was hardly a passenger
but now avowed a Nth, the bare suspicion
of which" would' have won him a 'halter.
but an hour -before One mart was. a, Nova-
Scotian, resident 'for years. in Savannah, who
was only a few dvenings before -Waited upon 4
•by the 'Owls," one of-his own employees head
ing the ruffianly gang. Ho saved,his life' by
showing pluck and loaded weapons, lint he
seized the earliest, moment to escape. Another
was a Northersa.man, officerin the Savannah
Blues, and it would have been his" turn next
day to go to Fort Pulaski ' • but he fled without
waiting to settle up his affairs, and like the
first named, was glad to get off thus well. The
passengers now began torelate the horrors they
had seen in their several localities. One had
seen three uneffending Northern men shot
down like dogs; and all agreed that' the half
had not been told of the frenzy and madness
of the Southren people. Mr. M'Knight says
he would not-go through another such week of
terror and espoinage for, five thousand dollars.

To place the -Comt•any in an independent
position, clear of debt, and the road , properly
equipped, it will Inquire about $lOO,OOO over
and above,all the present resources. ThIS will
have to be raised by a second mortgage, or sale

, The Temple Branch, connecting , this road at
Temple Station with the Reading Railroad at
Tuckerton, is finished., and the amOitint ex
pended for this purpose up to November 30th,
was $10,644 57. The whole cost of the Branch,
including land damages, will not exceed
$15,000 00. This branch was built to answer
the purposes of the Allentown and Auburn road
advocated at'one time, with so much earnest
ness by the friends of that unfortunate project
in Schuylkill county. As the people of that
great coal region have now got, by the eon=
struction of this Branch, all that could have
been expected from the Allentown and Auburn
Road, it is supposed that no one will ever be
so foolish as to expend one dollar towards its
completion.
Daring the year $51,990 69 were expended
for locomotives and cars, in addition to the
~$40,816 Z 2 previously laid out for this purpose,
making the whole cost of rolling
-stock of the
road $92,807`:31:
In Mardi last the line was opened for the
stock trade of the ,West, and on. the 9th of the
same month, the first train 14 live stock pissed
over the road from Pittsburg and points beyond,
to New York. Since then and up to the 30th
of November last, 1°,993-car loads, or about
13,354 tone of live stock have passed over the
road.
With,the exception of the stack buSiness the
Company has been obliged to depend exclusive

times, is the safest, yet it is always • very slow

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18, 1860
The papers in the South, and hereabouts,
publish a statement that Commodore Shubrick,
of the' United States Navy, died recently at
Pensacola, Fiorida ThiS is not true, as
the Commodore is -in Washington ,tcm:,lAy,
attending to. business, and is perfectly well.
The naval officers at thePensacula Navy Yard
have been fornially , detached, and are , now
awaiting orders from the department.
A number of the members of the diplomatic
Corpi having addressed a note to Secretary
Black, asking whether the Jgovernmetit would
recognize clearances from South Carolina,. and
whether foreign ships could still pay dutieis to
that State, the' Secretary is employed in an
swering the same, but the exact position he Will
take is not known.
ThelOmination of Mr. Mclntire, of Pennsyl
vanfa, as CoHeater at Charleston, has been de
feated in the Commerce Committee,' and will
:not, therefore, be reported to the Senate. The
vote in tbe committee stood three against the
nomination and two in favor of it. Senator
Bigler acted as chairman.
Went client Hall did not leave here for Charles
ton last eveuing,as was expected. The Presi
dent and Cabinet are still engaged on his in
structions.to :Maj. Anderson, and the exciting
reports as to what had already:been determined
upon,are, therifole, a little premature ; never
theless it, is not `believed that the fort..will be
surrendered, but, on the contrary, that orders
will be issued, to defend it to the last. The
President and his' Cabinet are now considering
the matter. - , - -

than adequate to resist any invasion. -
From_ present appearances the bide for the

has been
doing that
the Preside
duty in .ig
the Union. While he was for the Union and be
lieving that he thus represented the people of
Kentucky, he thought that linty required us to
pause before we imperil the whole Union, and
bring on a general conflict and internecine war.
He did not believe in the right of a State to
secede; he regarded this as the greatest hetero
doxy ever advocated by any party ; but while
he said this, all must recognize the right of
revolution ; for the resistance to oppression on
one-side, to secure fredom on the other. He
did not believe the time had come to resort to
this means of redress, and precipitate so dread
ful a catastrophe,.
