Wednesday Afternoon, April 8, 1861
The Principle of the Confederation.
The idea held out and the reason as
signed for the rupture of the Union by
the Southern traitors, has been, that the
people .of the South were compelled to
escape into a confederacy in order to pro
tect themselves against the aggression of
the North. Such assertions have formed
the standing arguments and-appeals of
Northern doughfaces, while advocating
the unity and principles of the Demo
cratic party. The dreadful alternative of
a disunion is what has benighted the peo
ple of the North, and heretofore weaken
ed their influence for good in their own
section. But it seems now that it was
neither the burden of past aggression or
the fear of future injury that induced dis
union In a speech on this subjeet, de
livered at Savannah, Ga., on the 21st of
March, the Vice President of the South
ern Confederacy, Hon. A. H. Stephens,
gives to the world the official reasons
which induced disunion. He states in
his arg%ment, that as the Creator has
made a distinction in races, He has also
fixed their power and prerogative. Those
whom God has stamped as inferior are to
be subjected to the will of the superior
—the standard of inferiority to be fixed
by the relative powers of the races occu
pying any territory. In this manner,
Mr. Stephens declares that the principle
of all governments should be based on a
system of slavery. It is the only means,
in his opinion, of preserving the harmony
of communities and the purity of classes.
Universal freedom begets _an equality
which must eventually produce degrada
tion, and as the degeneration of one race
has its influence on another, in--order to
preserve the strength of the stronger,
the weaker raoe must be weakened by
slavery and kept in constant and eternal
subjugation to prevent it fr2m perpe
trating any mischief.
With slavery as the basis of the South
ern Confederacy, and the principle itself
constituting one of the greatest monopo
lies with which the world has ever con
tended, Mr. Stephens considers the
protection of white labor as injurious to
business. He is opposed to the imposi
tion of duties as calculated to benefit one
glass of labor and injure more extensively
another. With this fallacy on his lips,
he advocates free trade, pompously de
claring that the white mechanic of the
South-has the independence and strength
to protect himself. But behind this so
phistry we have the real truth of Mr.
Vice President Stephens' design, which
is nothing more or less than to degrade
all labor to a level with that of slavery,
and to make it subject to their demands
and control. If they succeed in securing
a recognition for slavery, and establishing
it as a principle of government, and at
the same time incorporate the system of
free trade in the policy of the country,
we can imagine how long the white me
ohanio and laborer will be able to contend
with the slave of his own, and the pau
per labor of any other country But as
we have already stated, all these argu
ments in favor of free trade and the di
vine origin of the institution of slavery,
coming from the leaders of the insurrec
tion themselves, are only so many -vindi
cations of the policy and principle of the
Republican party. They prove that the
designs of the.revolutionists at the South
tend more to the establishment of the ex
ploded dogmas of tyranny, than the re
cognition and preservation of civil and re
ligious liberty.
- We append an extract from this extra
ordinary and frank avowal of principle,
for the benefit of our readers :
"The prevailing ideas entertained by Jeffer
son and moat of the leading statesmen at the
time of the formation of the old Constitution,
were that the enslavement of the African was
in violation of the laws of nature ; that it was
wrong In principle, socially, morally, and po.
litically. It was an evil they knew not well
bow to deal with, but the general opinion • of
the men of that day was that somehow or oth
er in the order of Providence the institution
would be evanescent and pass away. This idea,
though not incorporated in the Constitution,
was the prevailing idea at the time. ' The Con
stitution, it is true, secured every essential
guarantee to the institution while it should
last and hence no argument can be justly used
against the constitutional guarantees thus se
cured because of the common sentiments of the
day. Those ideas, however, were fundament
ally wrong. They rested upon the assamp
Lion of the equality of races. This was an er
ror. It wean sandy foundation, and the idea
of a government built upon it, when the
"storm came and the wind blew it fell." Our
new government is founded upon exactly the
opposite sides. Its foundations are laid ; its
corner-stone rests upon the great truth that
the negro is not equal to the white man. That
slavery, subordination to the superior race, is
his natural and normal condition.
This, our new Government, is the first in the
history of the world based upon this great phy
sical, philosophical, and moral truth. This
truth has been slow in the process of its de
velopment, like all other truths in the va
rious departments of science. /t has been so
even amongst us. Many who hear me perhaps
can recollect well that this truth was not gen
erally admitted, even within their day. The
errors of the past generation .still clung to
many as late as twenty years ago. Those at
the North who still cling to these errors with
a zeal above knowledge we justly denominate
fanatics.
It is in response to such opinions, and
to gratify a feeling of revenge engender
ed by a consciousness of inferiority on
their own part, that the people of the
South are now banding themselves to de
stroy the fairest and greatest government
on the globe. Whenever the Democratic
press of the North seek to give a differ
ent reason for this revolution, and essay
to force the responsibility on the Repub
lican party, they utter the most malignant
falsehoods, and render themselves amens•
ble for the actions of their Southern
allies.
The Tariff.
The English impliters and jobbers of
New York city,..ancl their allies of the se
cession movement, backed by the free.
trade Democratic press of this and other
States, are busily engaged in an effort to
destroy the effect of the present revenue
laws. It was not expected that the pro
visions of ,that bill would meet with the
approbation of English and French im
porters, nor was it hoped that the free
trade press of the country would give the
law the advantage of a fair test. So far
as that was concerned, the friends of pro
tection have not been disappointed, any
more than they 'will be disappointed with
the practicability and ultimate suoaess of
the new tariff law. The principle sought
to be established by this bill, are the same
which fostered the infant manufactories
of Europe, until in every land they were
able, to sustain themselves against the
competition of their neighbors. The
system of specific duties was insfrument
'al in organizing the gigantic factories of
England, while the same principle alone
guided the energieri of the French and
German artisan and mechanic to a. perfec
tion and power which have left them with
out a competition on their own soil, and
made them the most dangerous rivals in
the markets of the world.
The friends of the preserit Tariff, be
fore it become a law, were respectful in
listening to every suggestion or argument
of its opponents. It wasdisoussed in Con
gres, and the whole subject so complete
ly canvassed and adjudged, as to leave no
further room for objection from those who
were so ably answered and refuted when
the bill was before the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States.
All that we now ask and have a right to
demand for this bill, is a fair trial. We
have no apprehension as to its benefits
and success, and candidly believe that, af
ter it has been fully tested, its provisions
will be made the standard regulation of
our revenue laws forever hereafter, unless
by some trick or dire misfortune the ad
vocates of free-trade should gain the as
cendency in the legislative branch of the
government.
TILE LABORING MEN AND MROBANIOS,
who are now suffering some of the disad
vantages of the, confusion in business cre
ated by the secession movement at the
South, are told that their sufferings are
all attributable to the policy of the Repub
lican party. What is that policy ? As
announced in the platforms of Republi
canism and sought to be established by the
legislation of a Republican majority in
Congress, the policy of the Republican
party tends to the protection of free white
labor from all sorts of unfair and unrea
sonable competition. By just and equita
ble revenue laws, it seeks to protect the
mechanic and laborer from foreign compe
tion. No sane or patriotic man will
doubt the wisdom of such a policy. Those
who object to it, are those who clamor
most against the bestowal of any privilege
or protection to free white-labor, the men
who are prominent in the revolutionary
aggressions at the South. On the other
hand, it is part of the domestic policy of
the Republican party to prevent the ex
tension of slavery, and thus guard against
the danger of a conflict between bond
and free labor. To effect this purpose, it
is the fixed policy of Republicanism to
maintain the freedom of the Territories
by speedy settlement through energetic
emigration, making the Homestead Law
and ita bequests an inducement to the stur
dy laborers and skillful mechanics of the
North and East, to seek hones in the
West, to erect new Commonwealths, and
thus add to the glory, wealth and dignity
f a Union which is alone endangered by
the burdens and influence of the institu
tion of slavery. The southern slave-oli
garchy claim that protection to white la
bor is aggression on the institution of
slavery and therefore cause for revolution.
They assert that the Homestead Bill is
an invasion of the territorial rights of the
sklouth, because it 1 precipitate's into the

national domain a population opposed by
interest, instinct and conviction, to any
association or connection with negro sla
very. This is the position, and these the
principles, which the Republican party have
taken and now advocate, and because of
this, they are sought to be made respon
sible for the effects of the revolution at
the South on the business and labor of
the North. Like all the other attitudes
assumed by the advocates and defenders
of secession, it utterly fails before the
light of truth and reason.
FLAGS.—An immense number of se
cession flags have been made in' New
York. It is said that the reason they are
not made at the South is, that the moths
get into the original packages and before
they are made up they are ruined. It is,
emphatically, a country, where "moths
eorrttpt, and thieves break through and
steal "

Arrival of a Havana Steamer.
NEW YORK, April S.
The steamship Cahawba, from Havana on
the 28th ult., arrived this morning. It being
passion week, business was generally suspended.
There is nothing reliable concerning Forte
Sumter or Pickens. The President and his
Cabinet are "mum," and correspondents are
sorely perplexed in consequence. The latest
version. of the orders to the Brooklyn are simp
ly to land provisions and fuel, but should those
be resisted by the confederates, then the troops
were to be thrown into the fort, and the assault
of the "enemy" returned. With regard to
Sumter, it now appears that the reinforcement
of the fort is actually tinder consideration, as
the project, despite General Scott and Major
Anderson's opinions, is declared by other mili
tary authorities to be feasible.
The following important advices from Texas
have been received. Col. Ford, of the Texan
army, has received liable information from
Matamoros to the effect that Gen. Ampubia,
with 3,000 Mexicans,is marching upon Browns
ville, and was then only sixty miles off. Gen.
Ampudia has announced his progress by dis
patching expresses to distribute placards and
handbills announcing that "Texas rightfully
belonged to Mexico. She has declared that she
will no longer support the federal government,
and now is the time to retake her. Reinforce
ments in large numbers were rapidly coming to
him. Col. Ford had ordered all the heavy
guns, ordnance and stores at Brazos Island to
be immediately removed to the scene of the
anticipated difficulties.
The Cunard steamship America has arrived
with Liverpool dates to Saturday the 2Sd ult.,
and telegraphic advices via Quenstown to the
24th ult.
The steamship Adriatic arrived out on the
23d ult.
The Bank of England has reduced the rate
for discounts to 7 per cent.
LIVERPOOL, March 22.—Breadstuffs close

The Steamer Northern Light arrived this
morning from Aspinwall on the 25th, with the
California mails and treasure of the 11th. She

are the principal consignees : Wells & Fargo,
$150,000; A. Belmont, $112,000; L. Van
Hoffman, $120,000. I
The advices from Central America are gener
ally unimportant. President Guardiola has
been appointed Captain-General of Honduras,
with full powers to settle the difficulty between
the civil and ecclesiastic authorities.
A doubtful rumor prevailed in Nicaragua
that a party of fillibusters from New Orleans
had landed on the Rio Grande.
Affairs at Costa Rica were quiet. Coffee had
advanced to $lB.
Advices from New Granada indicate that an
engagement' will soon commence between the
Constitutional forces and the Revolutionists on
the banks of the Magdalena. The former
numbered 7,000 and the latter 3,000.
Advices from Peru state that President
Moreno, of ECuador, has been intriguing for the
annexation 4 his country to France. Letters
written by him advocating that measure have
been printed in the Lima newspapers. The
North Light has 200 passengers and $906,445
in treasure.
The Eight Million 'United States Loan.
$27,000,000 Bid Far—Names of the Bidders—The
Heavy Bids Owing to Peaceful Assurances from
the Administration.
The Secretary of the Treasury, to-day, opened
the bids for eight millions of the stock of the
United States.
Three hours and a half were consumed inthe
examination, about thirty millions being bid
for.
The highest bids, of course, take the loan.
The following are the principal successful
