Whst will be the Result
New York possesses the power to pre
vent the election of Lincoln ! Will she do
it' We have c c great herpes that she will !
What then? Aye, what then ? Either the
Union will be shivered into fragments, or
the Republican party will prove recreant
to its past history, and Its proclaimed
pledges. One or the other of these'things
will take place. But; my. the Republican
leaders, the Chicago platform proclaims no
scar upon Southern-rights.; why then should
tae South distrust our friendship, or our
disposition to adhere to all the require
ments of the 'Constitution. TLe public
prifessions of a party are like the public
professions of an individual. if stn indi
vidual professes to obey the law, I nth hu
man and e divine, but yet daily and hourly
violates it, what are his profession' worth!
Just so with the Republican party. What
tfit
I 3 the Chicago plc ' worth when we
look at the past hie of the party, and
the sentiments of its' era. If that past
history is worth anything—if it is not at all
a lie and a cheat to' catch votes; if the
publicly proclaimed sentiments of i'.9 lead-
ers. its tviddings, its Sumner*. its Sevrards
its Greeley's and its Lincoln's are to 'oc
relied upon as the criterion of its tuuire l
action, thenolisueion is not so far in the
future as many suppose. The South will
not, and welfare free to say, ought not to
submit to such dominion. And why not
submit ? Because is it Lot patent to every
man, if Republican leaders are not base
hypocrites, that the success of that party
will be the first step towaru en insurrection
of the slaves, likt un to the atrocious and re
volting tragedy of St. Domingo. Does not
the South know that if the Anti-slavery
party of the North should get control of
the government, the negroes of the South,
ic..l on by, the John Browns of New England,
would gain courage enough to revolt in a
night, and spread rapine, massacre and
beastial debauchery from the Ohio to the
Gulf ? Does it not know that with an Abo
lition party dominating the whole laud,
with all the moral, if not physical power of
the National Government in its hands, the
South would be filled with the incendiary
emissaries of Abolitionism, and flooded,
through the agency of an Anti-slavery post
al department., with such pestilent and
revolutionary sheets as the New York Tri
bwm 1 Does it not know, that with such
spirits as Giddings, and Greeley, and Sum
ner, and Lovejoy and Seward at the head
of the government, there would be a sud
den stampede of the Southern slaves to the
North, and that the basis of all the proper
ty and wealth and industrial prosperity' of
the South would be stolen away and pro
tected against recapture by the politic...l
confederates and accessaries of the thieves?
Does it not, know that the Supreme Court
of the United States would be, as speedily
es possible, oocupied with Anti-slavery
Judges, wbp would do the bidding of their
masters, and hold their. seats by 'b sly
sanctioning the most infamous system oif
robbery, ancrdenying the clealest prey.-
*ions of the Constitution ? Does it not
know, that under the rule of a Northern
freanegro dynasty, the Fugitive Slave l et
would never be faithfilly executeo, and
that the Pasunore Williamson. of P6llnsy 1-
unix would vindicate the vilest crime of
hypocritical philanthropy, by pleading be
fore our courts the doctrine of tile "higher
law" and the natural equality of the black
aad white races ? Does it not know, in
short, this with the Federal Government
placed in the hands of the Abolition- party
of the North, the Constitution would be
trampled upon, the South deprived of all
security and peace, apd the whole country
involved in conflict. tumult and disanitrous
disruption? Why, then, with these inev
itable consequences staring us in the face.
should we hope fur repose and prosperity?
Why these, those who say, in the name
of the " Republican " party, that the
South will suffer no harm if that party is
successful, and that, no harm is intended'
And why should the South wait until the
negro has put the torch to the home of
every family and the knife to the throat
of every man, woman and chill ? The
whole mischief is done when the Abolition
party triumphs by the vote of the I..;orth
ern people, The election of Mr. Lincoln
will sound not ail:, the tocsin of the South,
but o' the razor The moderate and con
servative members of his party will not lie
able to oontrol it--nor will AL They will be
swept away by the mid and furious pas
sions of an army of fanatical enthusiasts.—
Such a paper as the Gazette may cry peace
—peace--but there will be no peace.—
There will be servile war, brood-shed and
revolution, and no arm will be able to
stay it. The fond fools of prudence and
patriotic sobriety will have helped to raise
a storm whieh they cannot ride and direct.
All the weak dreams of the .political opti
mists will be dashed in an hour, the flood
gates of anarchy will be opened with a
crash, and the last and fairest experiment 1
of popular government ever attempted
will be blasted beyond redemption.

To show that the G.l:tue's denial of the
charge madeagainst its party is worthless.
we have only to turn to tun preceeding
column from which the above is copied,
where we find in the proceeding of a Re
publican meeting at Waterford the follow)
ing resolution
Resolved, That among the many causes
that have combined to aid Republican prin•
ciples and the sucee.s of our noble stand•
ard-bearer, Curtin, to none are we
snore indebted than tb the recent visit of

city of Erie. and thei4 brethern of the sur
rounding country, a that this club ten
der their thanks to t it eminent spmkers,
Messrs. Galbraith, I rap, Marshall and
S. M. Smith.
Now, there are fe intellects so obtru.e
as not to see that tki r. solution was in
tended as a "jeer" and a personal insult to
the gentlemen named in it. That it fail
ed of its mark is owing, not to the malig
nity of the party which concocted it, but
to the inability of the individuals who
stood sponsors to it to insult such gentle
men as Messrs. tiatlliraith, Marshall Do-
Camp and Smith : And the only wonder
is, that a paper making such high profes
sions to the amenties of life as the Gazette
should have prostituted its columns to so
base a purpose.
REPI*BLICAN I.V.—W hat mly be expected

Perhaps a more audacious piece of ef

by ch. conservative element of the Repub

rebel against the election of Lincoln.
•Ili The Gazette, take all in all, is "the
alfiredest. shirpe.st, cutest paper out." It
hat discovered one typographical error in
the Observer, and An advertisement insert
ed longer than the "la* allows," and, rea

"Editor is not,aware that the - 41evernbr's
election has 'si l ken p!ace." If we sholultl
point out all the errors in the Gazette, and
all the advertisements inserted longer than
pair; for, we apprehend most people would
imagine the Editor of that paper had con

him to account.

BL'IIIIIIT AIM KIM itmtsoen.—last week
there was an excursion, from Philadelphia to
Sunbury, in which quite a large number of
Manufacturers and Merchants of that city par
ticipated. At the latter place the excursion
ists were complimented with a Public Dinner
—upon whicilc s oomudon numerous touts were
drunk, and speeches made From the tatter,
we select the following, by PHILIP M. Pax it,
Esq., a Director of the Sunbury and Erie road,
and can particular attention to the sentence we
have put in Ike& It embodies • hint that may
solve the enquiry, often asked in regard to the
Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, as to
the Anal destination of that work :
Mr. Price said :—Nothing but the import
ance of the work which had been alluded to
could induce him to appear as a speaker. With
one esception—and that one an associate—he
believed he was the only representative of the
Sunbury and Erie Railroad present. The
President of the Company had been prevented
from attending. Bad he been aware that os
this occasion the business interests of the State
would be so well represented, it would have
atorded him pleasure to have extended the ex
sursion over the completed portion of the Sunk
bury and Erie road.
Mr. Price proceeded to give some very in
teresting bats relative to the present condition
of the work. The distance from Sunbury to
Erie was 288 miles, of which 143 miles were
in order, via : 82 miles at the eastern end and
66 at the western. These portions were trav
ersed by two trains daily. The intermediate
link of 140 miles was all graded, with the excep
tion of 26 miles. From Sunbury to St. Mary 's,
`there was no grade over thirty feet to the mile.
From St. Mary's to Erie the heaviest Trade
was My feet per mile and this was lees than
some of the ascents on the Pennsylvania Rail
road. It was easy for the intelligent railroad
men whom the speaker saw around him to es
timate the coat of the superstructure of the 140
miles. It would be less than $1,000,0410 and
the whole oast of the unfinished grading would
not exceed sBoo'o. In the north western part
of Pennsylvania was a region equal in arca to
the whole of Massachusetts, and possessing
unusual agricultural and muting advantages.
The central portion of the road was under
laid with coal, and the surface covered with
fine threats. The part already completed be
tween Erie and Warren was increasing in rev
nu* daily. But the freight carried over this
route was sent to New York instead of Phila
delphia. Ile would speak of but a single item
of trade, and that was the conveyance of coal
oiL In the first. month of its discovery two
hundied barrels were carried ; but in the
month of September the amount transhipped
had increased to three thousand barrels. All
this should have coine to Philadelphia. Re
cent statistics had shown that the lake trade of
the relied States exceeded $8,000,000, of
which Philadelphia got absolutely nothing.—
Not content with kerpearent swpretwocy, Men Park,
tlerowit English eapitahats, was about to ask tie
privilege of laying a stz fool gulag( on Me road-bed
of the Sunbury end Erie rood to the cite of Enc.
fa justice to diet place, the rposkerikatated trashi
er die Prissispiesetse corporation could refuse the
request.
The Sunbury and Erie road would be the
cheapest in the United States. The whole ex
pense theretofore, has been eight or nine toil-
Was. and the Hae may be completed for twelve
or thirteen millions, while the New York and
Erie road has cost $40,000.000.
• The speaker then reverted to the legislation
which had blin obtained heretofore for the
Eterprise. Should the two Houses this winter
Dt to extend a helping hand, the thorough
would be soon completed ; otherwise loss
would accrue not only to the State, but to the
corporations and private individuals whose
money was invested in the work.

On Weddesday night, abo . ut midnight,
a Are broke out in the old trains building, cor

haehly for the town, consuMed it without com

occupied by Mr. John Lantz, saddle aad har

ifir The StlCharies Hotel. Pittsburgh, has
always been good a house as there is in that
city ; but the proprietor is now determined to
make it the best. Calling there the other day
we found every part of it undergoing thorough
renovation and repairs. The painless, uphol
sters, paper-hangers, and carpet-dealers bad
almost entire possession. From miler to gar
ret they were busy. Old furniture was giving
place to new ; soiled carpels were being re
placed with a finer and more modern article ;
old paper was disappearing item the walls and
a new and brighter article being hung in its
place; the gat : fitters weriibusy in introducing
that modern luxury into every room ; in short
whatever improvement taste or comfort eug
geuled, the proprietor of the St. Charles was
having introduced., so that we came away fully
convinced that the St. Charles was about to
become the first House of Pittsburgh, and that
the proprietor, HARRY SRILLAS, "can keep a
hotel." His corps of assistant*, too, are of
the '''right stripe," from the Drees of Clerks in
the office, Messrs. Truta and Srrnsz, down
to the "gentletnen of white - apron and napkin"
in the dining room who furnish you your soup,
fish, and roast. Reader, when you go to Pitts
burgh, give Harry Shirbt a call. and you will
agree with us in regartt to the St. Charles.
githr rite Jammu:lint Editors are the "best
pleased" set of chaps we know of--and all be
cause the locomotive whistles occasionally in
their streets. Every paper has something to
say about "our railroad." When an Irishman
drives a spike they chronicle the fact ; when a
paddy breaks his wheelbarrow, in wheeling
dirt for "our railroad," they give him the ben
efit of half-a-column ; and so on to the end of
the chapter. Here is the last information of
