compromise to make."
" I would suffer everything before I would
compromise in any way. I deem it no case
where we have a right to extend courtesy or
generosity."—Senator Wade's Speech, Dec. 18th.
If we needed any proof of the utter incompe
tency or unfitness of the Republican leaders
for the responsible places they occupy, we have
it in the language and eonduet of Mr. Wade
and his colaborers in Congress. In consequence
of a defect of the Constitution, (which our
fathers would have corrected could they have
forseen the events of to day,) and the disorgani
zation of the Democratic party, they and their
followers have elected an anti-slavery Presi
dent to carry out their sectional schemes. Out
of 4,710,000 votes, they have cast 1,865,000,
or about 1,000,000 fewer than their opponents ;
and yet, in this most pressing eniergeney, when
the contest between the sections is hastening
to a fatal crisis, they refuse to make the smallest
advance in way, of reconciliation. If there is
the slightest symptom of yielding, the Tribune
cracks its whip, and, cries " Beware !"—" As
you are l"—and no man dares to move a step.
The course the Republicans take in regard
to compromise and concession, would be scouted
by men of common sense 'in any business save
party government. In the framing of our Con
stitution, almost every section was the result
of a compromise of differing opinions and in
terests. Our existence, tie one people, has,
from year to year, been preserved by compro
mise. When nations differ, compromise is re
sorted to. If either aide refuses to make con
cession, they go to war, blow up each ethers
ships, cut each others throats, and then com
promise. No matter which side wins the battle,
so long as there is anything to be lost or won,
peace can never come without compromise. Nor
can potion long continue when compromise is
repudiated. An uncompromising spirit in one
party begets it in the other,
and always termi
nates in a conflict . It looks to the law of force
and the arbitrament of the sword for the solu
tion of every difficulty. It is obstinate, undis
criminating and besotted. To its distorted
vision, all offences are equally grave ; all are
of the same quality and grade; all are mortal ;
all deierve the". penalty of death. It goes to
war on the most frivolous pretexts—is soon for
trifling as for weighty eauaes.,e-New Raven

MR. SHERMAN'S PLAN OP COMPROMISE
Mr. Sherman, Chairman of the Committee of
Ways and Means, and the acknowledged leader
of the Republicans in the House of Represen
tatives, in a letter addressed to and read at a
Republican meeting in Philadelphia on Friday
night, proposes the following settlement of the
Territorial question :
The only Territory south of the line, except
that which by treaty with'lndian tribes cannot
4v-included within the jurisdictiFn of' a: §tatt,
is' New Mexico. she has now pOpulation
enough for admission as a State.
Let Congress admit her as a State, and then
she has the acknowledged right to form, regu
late, change or modify' her domestic institu
tions. She now has a nominal slave code,
framed and urged upon her by Territorial offi
cers. Practically, slavery does not exist there.
It can never te established there. In aregion
where the earth yields her increase only by
the practice of irrigation, slave labor will not
be employed. At any rate, it is better to set
tle all questions about slavery there by admit
ting the Territory as a State.
While a Territory, it is insisted that slavery
shall be protected in it. We insist that Con
gress may prohibit it, and that the people have
an undisputed right to exclude slaves. _Why
not, by terminating their Territorial condition,
determine this controversy? The same course
might now properly be adopted with all the
Territories of the United States.
In each of the Territories there are now
small settlements scattered along the lines of
transit. Within five years, the least populous
will contain sufficient population for a repre
sentative in Congress. Dacotah, Washington,
Nevada anti Jefferson are destined soon to be
as familiar as Kansan and Nebraska.
It is well worthy the consideration of the
old States, whether it is not better to dispense
with all Territorial organizations—always ex
pensive and turbulent—and at once to carve
the whole into States of convenient size for
admission. This was the Seffersonian plan,
which did not contemplate Territories, but
States. It was also sanctioned by General
Taylor, and but for his death would have been
adopted.
This is an easy, effectual remedy, within the
power of Congress, and in its nature an irre
vocable fact. There is no necessity of an
amendment to the Constitution.. It is not at
all probable that two-thirds of both Houses of
Congress and three-fourths of the States can
agree to any amendments.
Why attempt it, unless to invite new con
quests, new acquisitions, to again arouse sec
tional animosities ? We know that if Mexico
is acquired the South Will demand it for slavery,
and the North for free institutions. We must
forego, for the present, new conquests, unless
the love of acquisition is stronger than the love
of domestic peace.

Mr. Taylor, o f Louisiana, remarked that the
decision thus reached made it clear to his mind
that there would be no agreement by the com
mittee upon the propositions for the• adoption
of amendments to" the existing Constitution,
which would be effectual for the settlement of
the issue now pending between the two great
sections of the country, growing out of the
slavery question ; and that in conseqUence it
wss his purpose to take no further part in the
deliberations of the committee.
It was his determination not to - vote upeit anT
of the other propositions pending before it..-He
further stated that he did not propose to resign
his place on the committee, as it was his inten
tion to remain in a position - which would enable
him to join in a minority report upon the sub
jects submitted to the committee, if that should
become necessary, or appear desirable.
Thereupon Mr. Taylor with Mr. Winslow, of
North Carolina, and Mr. HoustOn, of Alabama,
left the committee room.
Mr. Adams now offered a resolution decla
ring it to be expedient that all of New Mexico
should be admitted as soon as may be, as a
State, on an equal footing with the 'Original
States, and that the committee cause to be pre
pared an enabling bill for that purpose. This
was agreed to—yeas 12, nays 10; one-third
of the committee being either absent or> tiOt. to
ting. The only two from the slave States who .
voted aye, were Messrs. Bristow, of Kentacky,
and Davis, of Maryland.
These facts are abreviated from the offielal
proceedings, the injunction of atom,-having
been removed.
The citizens of. Richmond, Va., held.a very
large meeting on the evening of the 28th inst.
Resolutions were adopted (after considerable
discussion) approving of a call for a State Con.
vention to adopt measures to secure the rights
of the State in the confederacy or out of it, and
in the event of dissolution to provide for her
assuming her just share of the debts and obli•
gations, and for securing to her a justihare of
the property, privileges and munitions of the
United States ; reprobating any attempt at co
ercion, and declaring that such attempt would
lead to war, and deprecating the seizure
forts by any seceding States before, the forma
tion of a new confederacy, unless such seizure,
in the opinion of the seceding State, be essen
tial to her safety.
A call for Botta from a few in the' assembly
brought down a perfect avalanche :W . groans
and hisses, and which could only be restrained

Suppose the electoral votes are never counted
according to constitutional requirement—that
is in joint convention of both houses: This is
no chimera, for it is expected that fifteen

CONSELVATIVE MEETING IN CINCINNATI.
A large and enthusiastic Union meeting waa
held in Cincinnati last Wednesday evening,
which was presided over by Mayor Bishop and
thirty Vice Presidents. Addresses were made
by the chairman, Hon. Wm. S. Groesbeck, Iron.
Henry Stanberry, Judge Spencer, Nathaniel
W. Finnell and others. Resolutions were
adopted expressing reverence and ataohment
to the Constitution and the Union; denouncing
all legislation which tended to nullity any
guarantee 9f the Constitution, or to interfere
with the execution of any law passed in purew-
once of it; censuring the denunciations which
have been heaped upon the Southern section of
the - Union and upon its institutions' by the
people of the North; expressing abhorrence
and detestation of any effort to foment insur
rection or insubordination among the slaves of
the South; calling upon all patriots to awake
to the demands of the crisis, throw off the
shackles of party, and work like men in the
Game of the (Talon; and appointing a commit
tee of thirteen to prepare and publish an ad
dress setting forth the sentiments expressed in
the resolutions, and to take such other steps as
they may find advisable to advance the objects
of the meeting.
The Charleston Mercury says : •
The citizens of Beaufort, S. C., through Col.
John Barnwell, as authorized by Major-Gene
ral Schnierle, have erected a redoubt upon the
outskirts of their town, intended to• protect
them from attack by any foreign powers The
work is well executed, and at this time nearly
completed. It consists in a half-sunken bat
tery, with moat ten feet wide, pierced . for three
eighteen-pounders now in possession of the
town authorities. The ramparts are compactly
sqdded with turf cut from the edge of the
neighboring marsh.. The redoubt is situated
to the west of the town upon the hishest spot
in that neighborhood, at an elevation of shout
thirty-five feet above high-Witter fritter: It
commands the Port Royal river towards the
southeast, the front, and also the rear of the
town.
We hear that on Christmas day Major An
derson dined formally with the secession an
therities—chiefs—ia Charleston, and was duly
carried back to Fort Moultrie by early moon
light, apparently very much overcome by the
good things drinkable set before him. Those
in charge of the steamer posted in the channel
to watch his movements in the fort, therefore,
thought it would be safe for them to relax their
vigilance, and themselves take a Christmas
night frolic, and in the midst of which Ander
son atid his force spiked MoUltris'e guns, anti
landed safely in Fort Sumpter. The apparent
intoxication of Anderson was but a feint to have
the very effect it did have.—Star;
THE SOUTH CAROLINA POSTAL smeren
According to the correspondent of the New

orders to the Sub-Treasure at Charleston to
remit all the balance-05,000, on the Postoffics
account—in his possession, immediately, to the
credit of that department. If this order is not
complied with at once, he will demand of the
Federal Government to enforce his orders. He
is also determined, as before suggested, to sap•
