Mr. Lincoln's Policy.
We have no disposition, on our part, nor
do we believe there is any disposition on
the part of the great mass of the people
of Pennsylvania, to favor, in the adjust
ment of existing national difficulties, what
is now denominated, by glibe orators and
flippant writers, a "backing down" policy.
We aro now, as we have been, and as we
believe the people of Pennsylvani‘still
are, firmly and irreconcileably
. opposed to
the surrender of one jot or tittle of the
true principles of our Republican system
of Government. Opposed, now as ever,
to the extension of slavery over territory
now free, we would not yield this point
under any circumstances, not even to con
ciliate the Border Slave States, important
as we deem their good will and feeling.
But-, while we entertain these views
and feelings, we can have no sympathy
with nor respect for those who denounce
all exhibition of a spirit of liberality and
conciliation towards the Border Slave
States, and manifest a disposition rather
to aggravate than conciliate the people of
those States. To all such, and especially
those among them who are friends and
supporters Of Mr. Lincoln, and who, it
may be, suppose that they aro reflecting
his views and feelings, we commend the
careful perusal of the following extract
from his Cooper Institute speech, deliver
ed bat a brief year ago, and which, we
doubt not the' least, expresses his present
feelings, and embodies the policy he
means to pursue in the Administration of
the Government :
"It is exceedingly desirable," said Mr. Lin
coln "that all parts of this great Confederacy
shall be at peace, and in harmony one with
another. Let us Republicans do our part to
have it so. Even though much provoked, let
us do nothing through passion or ill temper.—
Even though the Southern people will not so
much as listen to us, let us calmly consider their
demands, and yield them if, in our deliberate view of
our duty, we possibly can."
WRONGS AND REMEDIES.—The Seca sionists complain that some of the fatties
who escape to the North are not returned.
Their remedy is to dissolve the Union so
that not a solitary one shall be returned.
They complain that Northern men hold
out temptations to slaves to run away:
Their: remedy is to provide that fifty or a
hundred run away where one runs away
now. They complain that the North is
opposed to increasing the number of slave
States. Their remedy is, by multiplying
the facilities for the escape of fugitive
slaves everywhere upon the border, to
change several of the present slave States
into free States. They complain that the
Abolitionists contemplate striking a blow
at the slave institution. Their remedy is
to strike a blow at it themselves more fa
tal than all the blows the Abolitionists
could strike at it in a quarter of a cen
tury.
SLAVEHOLDING INDIANS.—The returns
of the census for the four slaveholding In
dian communities west of the State of
Arkansas have been received by the De-.
partment at Washington. The communi
ties referred to are , the Choctaws, Cher°.
keel, Chickasaws and Seininoles. Most
of those Indians, heads of families, 'are
ilaveholders. The Seminoles were , the
only tribe which refused to lot the Assist
ant Marshal enumerate their slaves. Se
veral thousand slaves are owned by the
tribes, taken in the aggregate, and these
slaves are employed-by the Indians in oul•
tivating their lands, and are well and
kindly, treated.
PARSON BROWNLOW FIRM TO THILBND.
In the last issue of the Knoxville - Whig
Parson Hrownlow says :
We are infornied that Mr. of the ninth
civil district of Knox, has proposed to join a
company at any time, to come to Knoxville and
bang the editor of this paper. We propose next
Monday all a suitable day, and we Invite our
Union friends to attend and witness the execu
tion ! We propose to make a speech under the
gallows, and to relate our political experience.
There will be a mass meeting of the party here
on that day, mad the hanging of the "notorious
Brownlow" will greatly add to the interest of
the occasion I
Tau Wilmington Journal, published in
a Slave State (Delaware) is an ultra Re
publican paper. It says :
It appears the new Sotithern Confederacy is
troubled about a proper name for the Empire ;
some of the States suggesting one thing and
some another. We admit that, inasmuch as we
do not belong to the rebel side of the question,
we have no particular business to meddle with
their "domestic affairs ;" but still we respect
fully suggest, in view of the fact that there are
as many "niggers" in the new confederacy as
white people, that it be called new Hayti.
Mita. &EMMA., the wife of Lieut.
Slemmer, (the horoine of Fort Pickens ) )
arrived at Norristown within a few days.
On the evening of her arrival she was
serenaded by the Norristown Brass Band.
The Star Spangled Banner and other - pa.
triode airs were performed.
AN IMPORTANT MOVEMENT IN NEW
MEXICO.—The Legislature of New Mexi
co has passed an act for the election of
delegates to form a State Constitution,
which is to be held in May next. The
delegates are to meet in June to discharge
the duties which will thus be imposed
upon them, and the Constitution they
form is afterward to be submitted to the
people, for ratification or rejection, at a
general election to be held in September.
Thus the way is rapidly being paved for
the admission of this region into the
Union,iand , after that event we will have
no Territories whose destiny in reference
to the slavery question is doubtful enough
to furnish a decent pretext for further an
gry agitation on this subject.
THE talk of - the secession press about
"coercion" is arrant nonsense. For a
Iroud government which has attained the
highest 'position among the nations of the
earth, to 7 insist upon , enforcing its laws is
"coercion I" To resist the operations of
traitors to break it doWn is "coercion !"
To seek the recovery of stolen property is
"coerciony i Humbug! Next thing it
will be coercion for a man to crack a bur.
glar's head as he is breaking into his
house, or for police officers to protect hon
est, unoffending citizens against the fury
of a wild and godless mob ! CraMMOD
It is agross perversion of the term. There
is no coercion in self defence, or in de
fending the rights of the innocent.
A TOUCHING INCIDENT.-A Southern
gentleman, an ardent Union man, wrote
to his friend. in New York that he had
lost a child. He could not bear that it
should die under the Palmetto , flag. It
had - been born under the stars and stripes,
and the patriot father wished it to breathe
its last under the same national emblem.
He procured a little flag, one of those so
often in the herds of our children and in
use on festive occasions, and as his dying
child was sinking into the arms of death
waved above its-head the mimic standard of
a yet loved and powerful though assaulted
Union. Rest assured that man can be
safely trusted , with his country's _honor.
A vIP.T.DMATIO GRAVEMARD.—Guate
maIa is the puzzle of - President Buchan
an. Ile is puzzled how to fill the United
States mission there. "What will he do
with it ?" That's the question. It- is a
diplomatic graveyard, and every Ameri-'
can minister commissioned there ought to
travel in his coffin Pto cheat death of half
its terrors." No constitution can stand its
Climate; we doubt even if the , Constitu
tion of the United-States, which has with
stood so many shocks, could withstand the
air of Guatemala.
MARYLAND.—This State presents a
very interesting picture at the present
time. Although a vast majority of her
people are undoubtedly in favor of the
Union, and her Governor has taken a no
ble stand, yet the . 4 inattlesnake Clubs"
(the rattlesnake is the favorite reptile with
the secessionists) are doing all they can
te-get np a- Convention independeet of
anything the Governor may say or do.—
The National .Capital being so close to
the borders of this State, it is of the ut
most importance that Maryland should
stand firm in her devotion to 'the Union.
DISUNION has not the ghost of a chance
in Old. Kentucky. The people of that
patriotic State have but few sympathies
with the traitorous cotton-growers of the
Gulf States. A gent*an recently from
Kentucky, through which he travelled
considerably, says a perfect delirium for
the Union prevails there among the peo•
pie. The stage drivers wraiabe, stars and
stripes around their whip handles, while
at every cross-road the banner of the
Union is found floating to the breeze.—
There is no danger of such a people being
draggedinto:secession.,..
]?RESIDENTIAL; ELECTION IN MEXICO.
—The Presidential election in Mexico,
which should have taken place on Sunday
the 3d instant, has been put off till the
first Sunday in March. This delay is in
consequence of the recent radical change
of affairs throughout the Republic, and is
dictated by the laudable desire to give
the whole people an opportunity freely
and fully to Aiscuss the merits of the
various candidates. The delay has been
ordered` by a special decree.
EXPEDITION As:MINOT THE INDLANS.—
A "grand army" of •one thousand moun
ted volunteerfrontiersmen is rendezvous
ing in Jack county r Texas, for an expedi
tion of extermination against the hostile
Indian tribes. They intend to push on
to the very hcadquarteriof the eitemy,
and root them out of the land of the liv
ing; if 'possible. ,
THE Cincinnati Commercial says dur
ing "Old Abe's" stay in that city his
physique was freely discussed by the
crowd, and they were evidently disap
pointed in not finding him so atrociously
ugly as he had been represented. It
seemed to -be the general impression that
he had used but not abused his'privilege
in that respect.

France sincerely desires peaceandthat without
: renouncing her legitimate influence. She does
, not pretend to interfere where her interests are
1 1 not concerned. Non4ntervention had been his
- .
policy in the Italian complications,und Ins mo

talons and a partial departure from neutralityat length necessitated its withdrawal. He
points to the recognition of the annexation of
Savoy and Nice as an evidence of the mainte
nance of the rights of France, and to the pro
ceedings in China as a war for the honor of
France which is avenged. He rejoices at re
storation of the Christian Cross to China, and to
the protection of the Syrian Christians against
fanaticism. He considered it necessary to increase
the garrison of Rome when the security of the
Pope appeared to be threatened. He conoludes
by asking that apprehensions be dispelled and
confidence restored, his firm resolution being
not to enterinto any conflict.in which - the cause
of France should not be based on right and
justice. The London Times regards the speech,
as unfavorable and says there is nothing reas

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19, 1861
SuraTs.—The Senate met at 11 o'clock this
morning. The resolution for the relief of
John Randolph Clay, minister to Peru, was
passed. The consideration of the President's
message was postponed till Thursday. •
HOUBB.—Mr. FRNTON, (N. Y.) offered
preamble reciting the clauses of the Constitu
tion relative to amendments thereto, and add
ing.the following :
WHEREAS, varied and conflicting opinions
prevail among the members of this House in
regard to the causes which have produced the
unhappy diaturbancesnoW affecting our coun
try and in regard to the proper mode for quiet
ing and adjusting these disturbances and
guarding against their future recurrence, there
fore,
Resolved, That, in the judgment of this House,
the proper tribunal to which all existing dis
turbing questions should be rehired for delib
erate consideration and final settlement, is a
convention of delegates from the several States
of the Union, to be called in the mode prescri
bed in the Constitution.
Mr. FKNTON offered the above as % substitute
for the propositions of the Committee of thirty
three It was ordere to be printed.
e The House resumedillie consideration of the
bill reported yesterday by Mr. Swim, autho
rizing the Presideut to accept the services of
volunteers. The question being on its third
reading and engrossment,
Mr. STANTON said there was much misappre
hension as to this bill. It was erroneously sup
wised that it was to raise au army to march
into the seceding States to subjugate them
He called attention to the ActS which the bill
proposed to amend to show the necessity for
the present legislation. The law of 1795 pro
vides for calling out the militia for the sup
pression of an insurrection in any Stale against
the authority of the United States. The
second section provides for calling out the
militia to aid in the execution of the laws
when they are resisted by a combination
too powerful to be overcome by the ordinary
judicial process. In his judgment the laws
cover cases of insurrection against the authori
ty of the United States ; but he found that the
ex-Attorney General entertained a different
opinion and that it only authorized the Presi
dent to call out the militia to aid the officers of
the Court in executing a process to overcome
combinations against the execution of some
particular law and did not authorize the call
ing out of the militia to put down a general
insurrection; but to remove and to avoid
this ambiguity the Committee on military af
fairs had deemed it to be their duty to extend
the law not to any specific case but wherever
there is resistance to the authority of the
United States.
THE PRESIDENT ELECT AT ALBANY.
RECEPTION BY THE PEOPLE AND THE
LEGISLATURE.
Mr. Lincoln's Speeches on the Occasion.
ALBANY, N. Y., Feb. 18
The train reached Albany at 2.20 P. M. A
salute was fired,. and Mr. ,Lincoln was received
with'.deafening 'them's. its was received by
Mayor. hatcher •on behalf of the City Councils
and the citizens of Albany.
The route to the capitol was densely crowded.
The windows were-tilled with ladies, carriages
were crowded with ladies; and ladies lined each
side of the road. The male portion of the
community filled the intervening space. Flags
were displayed in profusion, and a canvass
across Broadway- bore the insoriptien : •
Welcome to the Capital of the Empire State.
• No kora Compromises !
The greetings of the citizens were most cor
dial throughout. -
In the capitol part there was an immense
concourse of people, and the task of the mili
tary and police to prevent confusion was any
thing brit easy. •
Mr. Lincoln was conducted immediately to
the executive chamber, and introduced to the
Governor and State officers. The Governor's
staff only were present. After welcoming the
Preaident, the Governor proceeded with hitt/to
the head of the steps of the capitol, where he
was greeted with prolonged applause.
The Governor extended a warm welcome on
behalf of the State. Loud cheers followed.
Mr. Lincoln replied :
Mr. Governor—l was pleased to recieve an
invitation to visit the capital of the great Em
pire State of this nation, on my way to the na
tional Capital ; and. I now thlmk you, mr. Ck)tr
ernor; and the people of this capital, and.the
people of New York for this most hearty and
magnificent welcome. It I am not at fault,
the groat Empire State, at this time; contains
a greater population than did the United States
Of America at the time she achieved her inde
pendence. lam proud to be invited to pass
through your capital and meet them as I have
now the honor to do. lam notified by your
Governor that this' reception is given without
distinction of party. I accept it the more glad
ly because it is so. Almost all men in this
country, and in any country where freedom of
thought is tolerated, attach themselves to po;
litical parties. It is but ordinary charity to at
tribute this to the fact that in so attaching
himself to a party which his judgment prefets,
the citizen believes - that he merely promotes
the best interesteof the whole country, and
when an
,election =is passed it is altogether be
fitting a free people that until the next election
they should be as one people.
The reception you give me this day is not
given'me personally—it should not be so—but
at the representative, for the time being, of the
majority of the nation. If the election had
resulted in the choice of either of the other
candidates the same cordiality should have been
extended to him as is extended to me this day,
in testimony of the devotion of the whole peo
ple to the Constitution and to the whole Union,
and of their desire to perpetuate our institu
tiomt, and to hand them down in their perk*:
• lion to succeeding generations.
I have neither voice nor strength to address
you at any great length. I beg you will ac
, cept my most grateful thanks for this devotion,
not tome, but to this great and glorious free
country. [Loud applause.]
' After bowing to the vast crowd, Mx. Lincoln
was conducted to the Assembly chamber, which
was densely ffiled. On his entrance, the whole
assemblage rose and greeted him enthusiasti
cally. After the ceremony of intrixinction,
Mr. Calvin welcome.d the President elect on be
half of the sovereign people of the State to the
Representative . halls of the State.
Mr. Lincoln • responded :
Mr. President and gentlemen of the State of
New York: It is with feelings of great diffi
dence, and I may 'say with feelings ontwe,
'greater than I have reeentty experienced, that
I . meet you here ill this place. The:history
,of
this great State,-the . remains of those great
men, ho have stood here and spoken here, and
been heard' fiere,' all crowd around my fancy;
and. incline nie 'to shrink from any attempt to
address you; yet I have some confidence given
me by the generous manner in which you have
invited •me, and -the still more generous man
ner in which you have recieved me.
To speak further, you have invited and re
ceived me wihout distinction-of party. I can
not for a moment suppose that this haa been
done in any considerable degree vrith 'referent*
to my personal services,butthat it is done in so
far as I am regarded althis time as the repre
sentative of the majority of this great - nation.
I doobt not tbis'is the truth and the whole
truth . of the owe and this is as it sheill be. It
ill pinch , Moro g ratifying to me that.this temp
.
tion has been given me as the representative
of a free people, than it could possibly be if
tendered me as an evidence of devotion to me
or any one man personally. And now I think
it more fitting that I should close these hasty
remarks. It is true, while I hold myself,
without mock modesty, the humblest of elfin
dividuals that have ever been - elevated to the
Presidency, that I have a more difficult task to
perform than any one of them. Yon have
generously me the support, the united
support, of the great Empire State. For this,
in behalf of the present and future of the na
nation, in behalf of civil and religions liberty
for all time to come, most gratefully do I
thank you.
I do not propose to enter into an explanation
of any particular line of policy as to our pre
sent difficulties to be adopted by the Adminis
tration. I deem it just to you, to myself, to
all, that I should see everything, that I should
hear everything, that I should have every.li,ght
that can be brought within my reach, in order
that, when I do speak, I .shall have enjoyed
every opportunity to take 'the correct and true
ground ; and;tor this reason, I do not propose
to speak at this time of the polioy of govern
ment. Butowhen the time comes, I shall speak
as well ae •l. am able for the good of the present
and future of this country—for the good both
of the North and of the South of this country
—for the good of the one and the other and of
all sections of the country. (licitmds• of ap
plinse.)
In the meantime, if we have patience, if we
restrain ourselves, if we allow ourselves not to
run off in a passion, I still have confidence that
the Almighty Maker of the Universe will,
through the instrumentality of this Govern
ment and an intelligent people, bring us
through this, as he has through all the other
difficulties of our country. Relying on this, I
again thank you for this generous reception.—
(Applause.)
The Legislature took a recess, and the mem,
bers and visitors were introduced to the Presi
dent, after which Mr. Lincoln was escorted to
the Executive Chamber, where he was intro
duced to the State officers. He was then con
ducted by the Legislative Committee through
the double ranks of the 26th regiment, who
presented arms as he passed to his carriage.
The Union Ticket Carried in St. Louis—
The State favors the Union.
ST. Lours, Feb. 19.
Incomplete returns indicate the election of
the Union ticket for the State Convention in
this city, by about 600 majority. The election
passed off quietly, with no disturbance of any
kind- owurring.
The returns from the State, as far as received,
favor the election of the Union candidates.
