The itithjoined artlcia, from the Harris burg Patna d• Union, is appropriate in this connection : There is nothing that the Republicans more upon at this time than the et!! . I :;' u tle majority. They as that Lincoln was elected President of the United States by the majority of the people, and that therefore they owe no CrtIICVSSiOTIM to a fac tious and turbulent minority. ns they dc light to call the Southern people. Now, the fact is that the people of the United Staten pronounced against Lincoln and the doctrines of the Republican party, by an overwhelming majority, at the late election. Instead of being the (shah-0 of a majority of the American people, the popular vote shows a majority against Lincoln of nearly err rnt Mort. In other wools, a majorky of nearly one million of the citizens itT these United States testified their abbot_ retire of the ag - gre-sive principles of the; ReptiLheans, and their apprehension that the success of those principle would en dancer this al try ea=ting their votes against Lincoln. And this triumph of a minority could not have been secured ex cept by a resort to seetionalism. by which means a nopular majority wi t s obtained in the Northern States exclusively. This vici ous sectionalism, so much dr,i , led by the Father of his , (Wintry, w ZV. , the life and strength of the Republican party. Any principle which would have nationalized it would have proved its immediate (restrue tion. Its existence depended upon the ad vocacy of opinions which could by tto ohtain favor in the fifteen . - ;‘ , tithern States of the Union and hence it was ne cc-awrll.7 beth sectional and aggressive,— Had it not been for the peculiar method of electing a President pres , ertliks4. by the Con stitution. and which was adopted at a tmie when it was not anticipated that the Nor thern mind could ever be so debam lied by abolitionism as practically to exclude the Southern States from participation in the government, the success of I.incoln would have been impossible. Had the electors been chosen by districts, as members of Congress are, the country would not now be suffering the fearful consequences of sec tional animosity and arrogance. The ma jority of the people were loyally willing and anxious to thwart the desii_ms of the Republican party, but they could not.— Their bands were tied. With these facts in view, and when the fllft, of the people demand that proper' concessions be made to quiet the apprehep-; slow; of the South, it is the extreme of in solence for the Republican Initinrov to 141 V that such assurances shall not be given. if the popular voice is heard and heeded the Southern States will not be permitted to, seek redress out of the Union, but will rib • thin what they require in the Union. The only men who stand in the way of a perma nent pacification at this momentous crisis in our national history are the Republican loaders, who are more intent upon sawing , their miserable aoctiouat organization than r upon preserving the Union. They are the i true seeessionista and di: unionists. Their stubborn arrogance must be lashed out of them by public opinion. Then the mo 2 nrityr will govern, and the Union be preserved. Sliii - It is astnniqhing with what compla cency some of the Republicans contemplate a dissolution of the Union. They say it may as well come now as at any time ; that the North can get along, quite as well with out the South as with it, and that a few years will find the " United States" (?) quite as strong without the Cotton States as it is now with there. These political philoso phers seem to imagine that if the Southern States withdraw, peace is going to reign at the North, and trade, commerce, and the arts go en as usual. Never were men more mis taken. This point is well illustrated by the Albany Arra in the following, paragraphs " Separation is dissolution. There can he no such thing as a Northern and Southern Confederacy. The Southern States could not hold together, the Northern Statos would not. Once wialgish a separaticm and New York would look out for itself. It would no longer consent to a sFatem ofpoli tical inequality which reduces it to the level of the smallest New England States, It would throw off the commercial restrictions which now hamper its commerce, aod ter minate, not only for itself. but for all the producing States of the west, the present protective system, which w a s devised for the benefit of New Englan and Pennsylva nia.

We do not envy the temper which sugges ted the criticism on the President's message contained in the Transcript of this week.— Such language at such a. time, can do but little, very little good. The editor calls Mr. Buhanan " the old man feeble," says he is nu " old Reprobate." that his heart is " cold, callous and icy," that he is " wedded to the black goddes' (little g, one 8,) slavery," " that he is the arch enemy to humanity." ' The editor thinks " the holders of slavery are the meanest tyrants on earth." - Not only do the laws of slave States allow a fiend in human form, to strip naked, sietentler, inoffensive female, tie her to the whipping post and indict upon her body a number of lashes, &c." From the bottom of our heart we despise such sentiments. We advise our friend of the Tranacript to read the able sermon of Dr. Boardman, delivered on Thanksgiving, and learn his duty as a mem ber of A chriatian community, and a citizen, Ile seems to have a very inadequate idea of it now. The editor thinks it outrageous that " the decisions of a pro-slavery court must be regraded as supreme authority."— Does he refuse to abide * those decisions? Does he decline yielding obedience to the laws I if so, South Carolina is not the only place we dal find traitors. To tell the plain truth this talk must be stopped. The peo ple will stop it if editors don't. Such men have done too much already to injure us.— The editor need not trouble himself to shoulder the responsibility of negro slavery at the South—he has sins enough of his own to bear, and even if Amen , be %sin, be has nothing to do with it. We repeat it „ this ' kind of talk must be. It affects' our interest too deeply. stopped Zook at the 41.- chair of Northern workmen ; look at the fall in the price of wheat, rye, oats, corn, potatoes, sour, he.; look at the suspension of your Beaks, and the fellness of yowl.

It is the pure grape, and although new, surpa‘ses many of the " choice wines " imported from Europe. We are led to believe by this specimen that the soil and climate of this 'vicinity are well adapted to the production of wine, and that it may lead to a more exten sive cultivation of the grape for that purpn.e. 3fr.
