THERE is considerable rejoicipg over the
election of Fisher to Congress from Delaware,
over Whitcly, the Democratic nominee. This
is by no means a Republican triumph. Fisher
was run as a peoylc’s candidate, and got. votes
without distinction of party.

So writes one of the most virulent. partisans
ofuLincoln, to the Tribune. And so too would
the New Jersey Republicans say of the defeat
of I’ennington. It spoils all their fun.
But this is not all. That twenty-one oppo
sitionmajority in the House of Representatives
is likely to spoil all their fun for two years to
come. The victory of the sectionalisis is a
barren one. There is no fun in it.
Suddén Repentance.
It is much easier to yroduce mischief than
to remove it. The Republicans, thoroughly
alarmed at the danger they have brought upon
the country, are endeavoring to alloy the ex
citement by the soothing appliance of kind
words. After denouncing the South and
threaiening to overthrow their institutions,
they now turn round and assure them that.
they really mean them no harm. At a- Repub
lican meeting, held in Philadelphia on Saturday
night last, resolutions were adopted expressing
sentiments of the “ kindliest character with our
‘_‘ sister States.” This is all very well, but
should have been thought of a little sooner, and
so much damage might not. have been done by
the expressxon of sentiments that were not of
the kindliest. character towards the Southern
States. These Republicans have invoked a
storm which they will not find it so easy to
subdue into quiet. Like the skilful magician,
who succeeded by his art in summoning a de
mon, the fiend of civil discord will no: depart- at
their bidding, but may turn to rend and destroy
them.
If these Republican leaders are now sincere
in their professions of attachment to the South,
then they admit. that. they only excited sectional
feeling at the North and played upon it for
political efi‘ect. The men who were pursumled
that the South was an oppressive and usurping
sectionof the country that ought to he subdued
and their influence destroyed in the Govern
ment, have been cheated. The fierce denunci
ations of the campaign are laid aside for the
conciliatory and kindly expressions of politi
cians who have achieved 511060“ by frofcsslon:
which they now wish to disregard and forget.
These Republican politicians must not. be
surprised if the Southern people place no con
fidence in their sudden repentance. They did
not calculate the consequences when exciting
this sectional tumult—or recklessly defied the
worst evil that could befall the country, rather
than not use sectional prejudice as the ladder
with which to climb into place and power.
Northern Nullification and Southern Re-
taliation.
Some of the Republican newspapers are ex
claiming with great indignation at the recom
mendations contained in the message of Gov.
Know, of Georgia, to the Legislature now in
session, that laws be passed imposing a tax
upon all articles manufactured in States that
have attempted to nullify the Fugitive Slave
"law. This measure of retaliation is denounced
as unconstitutional and infamous. That it is
unconstitutional for any State to impose a tax
-or-tarifi‘ upon the productions of other States,
we have no doubt. Particular care was taken
in the Constitution to guard against the enact
ment .of State laws obstructing the freedom of
trade between the difi‘erent members of_ the
Confederacy; and to the General Government
was committed alone the power of commercial
taxation. But while the measures recommended
by Gov. BROWN to the Georgia Legislature are
unconmitutional, the infamy of such proceed.
ings belongs to those Northern States that have
set the example of nullification, by their ille
galstatutes to obstruct the execution of the Fu
gitive Slave law. If Georgia is censurable for
her conduct, she is only following the vicious
example of the Abolition States. Before they
undertake to exclaim against her conduct, they
should place themselves in a position to rebuke
her contumacy by clearing their own statute
books of the infamy of nullification. Then
they might with propriety lecture her for her
misconduct,-and win her back to the path of
duty. A drunken man is not a. fit person to
lecture others on the evils of intemperance;
neither is a. nullifying State in the position to
denounce another State for copying her bad ex
ample.
It is remarkable how ready the North is to
take fire whenever any of the Southern States
talk about passing retaliatory laws. We are
all quick to cry out treason! treason ! and to
demud that immediate'measures shall he di
reeled against those States to bring them back
to asense of duty. And yet, strange to say, the
very class of men who are most vehement in
demanding coercive measures, cannot under
stand why the South should he so much ex
cited, what reasonable cause of complaint the
Southern people have,and why they should.
talk about resisting Northern aggressions.
Why, if one-half of the Southern States should
pass laws, in direct derogation of the Federal
Constitution, piohlbiling commercial inter
course‘with the North, or obstructing such in
tercourse by means of illegal taxation, they
would be doing nothing more my‘ust, nothing more
unconstitutional, nothing more directly tending to
precipitate disum'on, than the Northern States have
already done by the enactment of laws to prevmt
the execution of theFugz'tive Slave law.‘ Meil who
are at a loss to understand why the South
'should be in such a ferment of excitement at
the conduct of the North, may learn to oompre~
hand the state of the Southern mind lay consuL
ting their own emotions when they contemplate
the possibility of the State of Georgia adopt
ing the unconstitutional laws recommended
by the Governor. Had the South gone half
as far in nullificntion as the North has already
gone, it would have been impossible to restrain
the impcluous indignation of the Northern peo- I
pie; and cannot we learn how the South, under
similar provoci'uions, should be deeply moved 5
with just resentment. ? l
Northern men are for too opt to View nulli—
fieation as 3. Species 01‘ treason exclusively of
Southern origin, and practiced entirety by
Southern men. But this is so far from the ac
tual truth, that while there is not- now a single
act upon the statute books of' any Southern
Slates nullifyiug any Federal law or obstruct
ing the enjoyment. of any right guarantied by
the Constitution, :1 number—perhaps a. major
ity—of the Korthcrn States have passed laws
to rloprive the South of the right, solemnly
conferred by the Constitution, of l'e-capturing
their runaway negroes. The act of Congress to
execute this Constitutional provision is openly
defied in many Northern States. State courts
have attempted to render the law a dead letter
by judicial decisions. Individuals have taken
up arms against the execution of this law, and
been protected and encouraged in their tree
son. Nullifieation in the cause of liberty has
been made meritorious by the sympathies of the
people, and the law for depriving a. Southern
man of his property been elevated ohmic the
Constitution.
‘ This being the attitude of the North, itis not
surprising that the South should attempt to re
taliate—but it is surprising that Northern men
1 should overflow with indignation when the
South merely proposes to follow the precedent
' which they have set. If the Northern States
l would immediately repeal the laws intended to
l nullify the Fugitive Slave law, the Southern
States would accept it as an evidence of our
love for the Union and our hatred of nullifica
tion, and the excitement now raging in the
South would be sneedily followed by confidence
and quietness. But until this is done there is
no reason to hope for peace. While the. North
nullifies, the South will pay her back in the
same coin; infidelity will he reoompensed by
infidelity; the North will be damaged to the
full extent of the losses sustained by the South
from runaway negroes, and. in this warfare,
where both parties trample upon the Constitu
tion, the only "bond of union, the Union itself,
must necessarily give way. Such must be the
inevitable result of a. mutual disregard for the
requirements of the Constitution. The only
safety for the Union is in a return to the Con
stitution ; and which is the mostcriminal in de~
parting from it, but the nullifying Northern
States ‘2 ‘
Lincoln’s Proposed M auitbsto—Congress
and Secetision.
The following views, expressed by the Wash
ington correspondent of the Journal of 00m
mcn‘e, in relation to the manifesto which it is
rumored Mr. Lincoln contemplates addressing
to the South, in order to convince them that he
)ncditates no assuult'upo'n their rights, together
with the speculations in reference to the pro
oeedings in Congress, and the means of quisting
this sectional agitation, will be read with in
terest at this. time; . V H .
It was stated here, the other day: upon the authority
of persons who are in the confidence of Mr. Lincoln, that
he would soon issue, in some form, a declaration of his
views and intentions, in regard to the subjects of pub
.lic policy that agitate the country, and that he would
thus set himself before the country and alloy the appre—
hensions of the Southern States. He had only to repeat
under his own signature what he had said in conversa
tion with his friends, in order to assure the South that
he would enforce the fugitive slave 111 w, and in every
yarticulat abide by the Constitution? and 7 of course:
respect all the rights of the South. It is known too
that he has said that he desires no further legislation
by Congress in regard to the Territories, and is there
fore opposed to some of the Republican measures of the
last session.
But I now hear that some of his friends have dis
suaded him from making any public declaration on this
subject, for the reason that it would have the appear
ance of cowering before the present storm.
I doubt whether such s. manifesto would do much
good now, for the South has been fully impressed with
the belief, and now assumes, upon the best Southern
conservative authority, that Lincoln comes in. pledged
to wage war upon the South and her institutions. This
may be so, because any other course would certainly
bring a. war upon him from his anti-slavery friends.
It is now said that Mr. Lincoln is to hold his pence
till the 4th of March, when he will express the views by
which he will be governed in his Administration.
The secession question will be brought before Con
gress in the President’s message, and also, no doubt, by
resolutions which will be offered in the Senate by South
cm Senators. It is now probable that the Senators and
Representatives from South Carolina. will remnin in Con
gress till the State Convention shall have passed an
ordinance for the secession of the State from the Union,
meanwhile, it does not seem probable that any subject
but that which will be presented by the political crisis,
will be considered by Congress at this session.
You have made a. suggestion as to a mode of alloying
the discontent and excitement, to wit, that of the re
peal, by the Republican States, of the lows nullifying
the fugitive slave law. I have no doubt that such a.
movement would give us peace. It would .arrest the
tendency now apparent in the whole South towards dis
uniou; vast numbers of Southern citizens who prefer
union to disunion would be made content by it. Its
chief benefit would be to furnish to the conservatives
of the South what they have not now, a basis upon which
they can stand in resistance to the present disunion
movement '

OFFICE-HUIXTING AND P(7RS U I T 0F
IND USTR Y.
From the Baltimore American.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin once said: “ Give
your son a. trade, and you do more for him
than by leaving hints. fortune.” A contempo
rary, quoting this remark, and referring to the
office—seeking mania in this country, says: “_lt
is one thing to give your son a. trade, and
another thing to induce him to stick to it
amidst the enticmnents of puraizun warfare,
Dr. Franklin‘s advice is no doubt very gener
ally followed, for it. is stmnped on its face with
good sense, and carries to every mind a con
viction of its sound, practical wisdom. But a
pernicious partimn system has grown up
amongst us that entices men from the work
bench or the counting—desk to the clnlrroom
and the political headquarters of contending
demagogues. Men are now enlisted for the
ballot-box battle as they are for the army or
navy. Pay, rewards and rations obtain as
much in the one as in the other.’: in doubt.
whether Dr. Franklin’s advice “IS very gen
erally followed.” If it were, there would be
fewer oflice-seekers. We do not believe that
many mechanics are to be found among appli—
cants for otlice. The business of an industri
ous mechanic is worth too much to be surren—
dered for a beggar-1y station under the gov
ernment. His trade, too, never forsakes him ;
it. does not collapse every four yours; it does
not. depend on this or that. man’s. whim or on
price. Consequently a mechnmc who would
give up the fruits ofa long training for a tron.
sient. chance at one of the miserable offices of
the Government, must he a very short sighted
or ignorant man. We do not believe there are
many applicants for official fuvor from the
working classes.
There are no men in the world more inde
pendent thsn men with trades, or form are. The
world cannot get. on without. their attend labor.
They know that, with the blessing of Heaven,
their strong right hands will command comfor
table. food, clothing and shelter for themselves
and those they love. They know that by pa
tience, perseverance and prudence they can
amass something for sickness. for old age, and
for their children, though their own success in
life will teach them that the best inheritance a.
child can receive from his father is a. good
trade, and the same laborious and economical
habits which have provided for the futher’s
wants. Now, the idea. of a young man thus
situated seeking office is absurd. Do you think
that hard son of toil could part with his inde
pen ience, even if he were idiot enough to part
with the steady rewards of his industry? He
who, while it is his duty to be courteous and
kind to all, is under no obligation to bend his
knee to any man ; who has neither the disposi
tion nor the motive to be sycophantic; who has
but to go forth to his daily work and receive
his daily recompense—he is a freeman and a,
sovereign? What armnt folly for such a man
to cast away his liberty and make himself a.
slave; to go bowing and begging, and petition
ing Secretaries for the crumbs that fall from
their tables, or to hold any office in which,
whatever might be the reward, his soul could
not breathe freely, and the support of himself
and family depend upon the smiles or favors of
some upstart official, who might require from
him an Oriental servility of heart and manner,
in {addition to the faithful discharge of his ofli
cial duties.
If Dr. Franklin’s sage advice were more gen
erally followed, and the American people had
a. clearer: idea of the luxuries of office-holding,
we should behold a very different picture from
the scram! 1e for the loaves and fishes, which
is witnessed upon the accession of every new
President. We should then see. the Govern
ment applying to the citizen to accept an office,
and the citizen consenting to receive it, if it
all. upon such terms as would make a. subordi.
note ofl‘iciul post a. very different thing from
what it is at present. But, as matters now
stand, we would say to our young men, work
{it 7 ”=s3Vtmgkrdigwhira nut you: services on
railroads and canals, go to Ca.liforni:l.,"to China,
to Guinea, before you become an office-seeker
or an office-holder. No matter what your em
ployment. so it be honest—independence will
sweeten and dignify it. ; you will be proud and
happy that you ask no man any favors—that
no man has the power to take the bread out of
your mouth—that no change of the popular
tide is able to sweep you to destruction. Hum
ble as may be your daily toil, freedom will
make it honorable—freedom will make other
man, no matter how high in oflice. respectyou.
and seek your favor—freedom will make you
feel yourself a. man equal to the President of a
Republic or to a King on his throne. We know
of nothing that would do more to promote the
purity of our free institutions than the decline
of the office-seeking mania of the present day.
Let the press of all parties unite to crush this
unnatural appetite for the husks and garbage
of official station, and to strip the false attrac~
tions from the hollow “ spoils of victory.”
HORRIBLE Accmnnn—Fz’ve Persons Burned
to Death—Daniel Swearingcr, a farmer, going
from Tuscawara county, Ohio, to Fort Dodge,
lowa, while crossing the prairie, near the latter
place, on the 2d inst., with his wife and four
children in a wagon, was overtaken by a prairie
fire,and all except the father perished. The
Nevada Advocate says :
Without other warning than a moment’s
sensation of heat. as felt through the cover of
the wagon in which they were all traveling in
fancied security, they were overtaken by fire
on the prairie. Before any measures for pro~
tection could be taken, the wagon cover was
in flames. In a. moment the bedding and other
inflammable material was on fire, and before
Mr. S. could make his way out of the wagon,
through the flames, his clothing was on fire.
Unfortunately, as he fell out of the wagom’ he
was kicked by one of his horses, and for a
time stunned beyond ability to help the others.
He revived in time to see his wife fall from
the wagon, burned to death, and to drag from
the flames one of his children, already dead.
His own clothing was burned entirely from his
body, and he is severely burned, especially in
the head, face and hands. He is at present
sightless, but hopes are entertained of his
recovery, and that his eye—sight is not destroyed.
Two of the children were literally burned up
'in the wagon. Of one nothing could be found
but the skull; the other a charred mass, in
which was no trace of humanity left. One of
the horses was burned to death in the harness;
the other succeeded in freeing himself, but is
badly burned. The dead are Mary Ann, the
wife of Mr. Swearingen, aged 30 years; Sarah
Jane, Rebecea Ellen, George Dalton and Sa
brina. his children, aged respectively, eleven,
nine, seven and two years. The calamity oc
curred about 7 miles northwest of this place,
on the Fort Dodge road, in a small basin or
commencement of a water channel.
Cool. AS A CUCUMBER.——The Cincinnati 00m
mcrcial says : “We have long known that the
Rev. Dr. Wise, editor of the Israelile, was a
philosopher, but. were hardly prepared to see
him take misfortune so coolly as he does, in the
following request to some burglars who have
annoyed, rather than robbed, him on two late
occasions: ‘ The thieves who, last Friday
night broke into our office for the second time,
are politely requested to do so no more, as we
feel heartily ashamed for any decent thief to
see how very poor we are. Tell us beforehand
your intention to pay us a visit, and we shall
place some change somewhere within reach, to
save the credit of the establishment.’ ”
YANKEE ENTERPRISR.—A New York boy
superinteuds the manufacture of orange wood
toothpicks in Chili, South America, which are
whittled out by the children, and the aged and
decrepit, and he sends them to his mot-her in
New York, who sells large numbers of them at.
twenty cents a. thousand. The Astor House
buys eight or ten barrels at a. time, and Impu

LATEST BY TELEGRAPH
From Wa-hlngion.
WASHIKGTON, November 13
The Constitution publishes one of the forms
of a. Declaration of Independence to be sub
mitted to the South Carolina. Convention. It
embodies a portion of the American Declara~
tion of Independence, with the list of grievam
ces altered to suit the present. condition of af
fairs in that. State. A cepy of this document,
it is understood. was laid before the President,
yesterday.
As {at as can be ascertained, there is no Llis
position, either on the port. of the Administrw
tion, or of gentlemen of political prominence
hero, to interfere with the present Southern
movements, except, perhaps, in a friendly snirit.
It, is now probable that the President Will‘soon
issue an address or proclamation, as the election
of delegates to the South Carolina, Convention
is to take place at an earlier day than was re.
cently anticipated, and as in consequence there
would not be sufficient time for the general cir—
culation of an appeal through the annual mes.
sage, as was originally contemplated. This
subject is now under consideration.
Letters received from Virginia intimate that
numbers of the wealthy planters have avowed
their determination, if'the attempt, to break up
the Union shall succeed, to locate in the free
States. '
Chief Justice Taney, the distinguished friend
of Gen. Jackson, cordially re-echoes the senti
ment of Amos Kendall, in denouncing every
attempt to break up the Union as treasonnble
in the last degree. .
It is understood that Tom Corwin, of Ohio,
cam, if he will, occupy a prominent position in
Mr. Lincoln’s Cabinet; and in the event of his
declining to do so, an invitation will be exten
ded to Mr. Ewing or Mr. Vinton, of the same
State. Mr. Graham or Mr. Badger of North
Carolina, are also confidently mentioned in this
connection.
Ihe Birch Divorce Case.
NAPEPNILLE, 111., Nov. 13
Although the Birch divorce case was set for
the first day 3f the term, which commenced to
day, nothing was done. _The Court simply or
ganized the Grand Jury and read the docket of
cases.
To-morrow it is understood the counsel of
Mr. Burch will move for a continuance, on the
ground of a desire to show up the character of
certain witnesses whose depositions against. the
chastity of Mr. Burch have been taken in St.
Louis. The friends of Mr. Burch say they will
be able to demonstrate‘ the existence of the
greatest. and most atrocious conspiracy against
him that it is possible to conceive of.
Mrs. Burch's 'party declare that in unveiling
the acts ofher husband they are only exposing
the hidden deformity of a monster.
Feeling runs high. The regular panel for a.
jury is already here, and is composed principally
of farmers. The trial, when it commences,
will probably last ten days.

the employ of the Phoenix Guano Company.
It lies on the northeast end of the Phoenix
group, in lat. 2 deg. all min. South, and long.
171 deg. 40 min. West. The discoverers found
a spacious lagoon inside, and some appearance
of the island having been inhabited, although
at a. remote period. On the eastern 'side of the
entrance to the lagoon there was a large pyra—_
midal structure built of stone. and evidently
of considerable antiquity. On the western
side there was an extensive inclosure, also
constructed of stone. The guano deposits
proved to be of considerable extent and excel
