Two weeks previous to the election we wrote and - publiehed an article depicting the dangers which threatened the peace of the Union in the event of Ltscour's elec tion. Meeting a valued Republican friend a few days after, he half jokingly, halt stir. iou-dy remarked that we must have had an easel.; of indige4tion, or something kin dred to it when we wrote ' article ; but now how stands the case. iwo weeks have hardly passed, and we I fill our paper twine over with rumo. : n.ts, comments and speculations upon affairs at the South, all growing out of the. election of Lincoln, and all going to show that secession and revo lution =st take place at no distant day. Excitement "runs riot" from the Maryland line to the Gulf of Mexico ; South Caroli na is preparing her "duds" to leave the Union at a moment's warning Georgia has her knapsack slung ; Alabama, Flori da, Texas, Missi*ppi, and the lord knows how many more, are enquiring anxiously for State rooms in the same boat. As the New York New mostArply says, the great difficulty with ut at the pnorth is to believe that any State at the SOuth can honestly and seriously mean secession when she , threatens it. Wei.see South Carolina on the very brink of bidding us a final - adieu, and we smile and shake oui heads, declar ing she doesn't Mean it ; she is only try ing to frighten us into the offer of some concession ; it is but a lover's trick, that ends, before the door closes, in affection ate protestations and a return to warmer embraces than before. These things we say in our self conceit and complacency, because we have never been driven by 1160- tionalidggression into 4 state of unthink ing, reckless desperation : because, being vainglorious in our security, we can stop ito talk of reason and remonstrance, calcu liting the profit and loss of Union, and im agining that quiet prosperity is compensa tion enough' to warrant, interminable for bearance and never ceasing tubmissiOn.— But let us change places. Suppose the South had chosen Mr. Yancey,.whose avow ed creed was the blessing of slavery ; the belief that it wag the greatost boon that could be extended to every part of the country ; the resolve to so extend it by every means in his power. Suppose him elected, with all ( the prospective prestige of Pcrsielential authority to aid in this ex tension, from the) moment he should be in sqgurated. ' What would New York with its forty thotisand railaplitting majority say then 1 What should we confidently ex -1.,t from Massachusetts? Imagine the as ton6hment and terror ()our Republican friends when they realiz ed the possibility of the eloquent Yanoey's theories being , arrie.l into effect. Would not horrible -peelers of Sarobo in shackles surround their couches? Could we have repose in the day fur their lamentations over the rowing establiSliment of the dhlaboose be ---nestli their very noses?

Ten to one but instead of gracefully withdrawing from the Union. because there was something in it they didn't like, they would try to drive the South out for differing with them.— 'there is nut a sincere Republican who will not admit this; .who cannot fully reelluie the parox) sin of rage and resentment that would convulse the North, if the South were to place them in the position they have placed the South by Lincoln's elec tion ; n:td, realizing it, tie inu4t credit Car olina, tie.orgia and Alsbeir.fi at this mo ment,' eith honorable •,-rity and oon scieutious resolve, in t ei, eildeavoni toe.- cede, If they do not un : they should be Induced to wait till ‘ne cool regection \ re can give safe play to, comes to them, it will be only because they are more gener ous, more simple hearted than we are ; be eause the impulsive nature that has led them to their present isolated position of chivalrous self-assertion (a position that, under similar surrounding pressure, New England would soon recede from)may also lead them to eventually saorafioe their own feelings to the National welfare. We ar dently hope that this may be the case. We cruet, when the first fever of excitement has abated, that the conservative element —always sluggish and inert—may tir found tolpreponderate. Bat it is no use trying to persuade ourselves into the certainty that it will. There is no qusstion but that the Palmetto State has hetfluggage in the lob by and the door handle of the Union in her hand. She has good cause she thinks for separation and divorce ; and, if we, who have done her injury, are too proud, or . have noflove enough for her, to malt* her swab promises and give her mach guarsa- tees as will induce her, if not to relent, st least to stay with us for the sake of avoid ing scandal, we do hot see how the catas trophe is to be avoided.

Whether Birely was, or was not a "Breekenridge Democrat," the paper quoted knows probably as little as arep journal in the country. The facts, at all events, are against the supposition that he was. Lannon, the member elect, is a Douglas man ; on the morning after the election, A. selected Brody as his friend in the meeting of the return judges, and asked him to see that he was not cheated out of hie election, as he had heard rumors that an effort would be,made by the Re publicans to do so. He little thought the man he had selected was the very one who was to do the cheating for the benefit of the Republican party ; nor is it at all can did, now that he has been convicted, for Republican journals to endeavor to impress upon their readers the idea that their par ty is blameless in• the transaction, when -Birruea, for whose behefit the crime was perpetrated, is • Republican, and altho' it has been it:Weirdly • determined that he holds his certificate of election by fraud, persistently holds on to•it I B ar There area ter* bright spots, here and there, to cheer the eyes of Democrats, amid the thick darkness of their almost total defeat.

Burling game, it will be remembered, is the author of the impidus and treasonable declaration : "The times demand an anti-slavery Constitution, an anti-slavery Mble, and an anti-slavery God." Re was so confident of his election that he wandered off into this State to make stump speeches for Curtin. He returned to his own district, too late to save himself. Col. Curtin very magnanimously made a pilgrimage to Boston, 'where hi spoke in behalf of Burlin game ; but it would not do. The fighting man of the Republican party could not fight his own way through. He was beaten by William Ap pleton, the Union candidate, by 267 majority.

Reexpressed the unan imous consent of the people of Baltimore, the largest of all Southern cities, when he said that the true policy of Maryland was to adhere to the Union, so long as she could do so with honor and safety. In conclusion he said, no cause has yet arisen sufficient to justify the overthrow of the noblest and most beneficial govern ment ever established b human wisdom ; and which is consecrate d and endeared to the hearts of all, not only by the abundant blessings of the present moment, but by the sacred memorials of the past, and the great hopes of the futuree The expedien cy of asllinga mase meeting of citisene to sustain the Union, .is much discussed by our business men.

B. Conferenoe, has brought disgrace upon himself and discredit upon his denomination. Charges made against him that he has used the church when he officiated as a place of assignation, have been so hr verthed that he has been suspended from all al funotions until the next session of the Con ference, which will be held in Utica in lie Spring. We invite attention to the following strik ing practical suggestion of the Nashville Pa triot : "An exchange gives as account of the killing of four men in Collinsville, DL, by the 'sudden explosion of a small portable engine? We have long been of the opinion that if these small portable engines could be so constructed as to explode gradually, • large number of val uable lives might be saved." The first man who discovered gold in Cal- ifornia—it now turns oul r in consequence otia vestigations by the Sea Francisco Society of Pioneers—was Captain Jedediab 8. Smith, a chief trader in the employ of the American Fur Company, who found gold in the valley of the Sacramento as long ago as ins. On a second expedition to the gold fields, the following year, the enterprising pioneer was ,killed by the In dians.

They had with them about $BOO in money. Governor Curtin .passed Easton on the railroad one day last 'week, on his way home from the state where white woman marry nig gers—Massachusetts.

In Detroit, the other day, a young iron who had been for some Months ileeperitely enamored of a maiden, to whom he had made many presents. discovering that she inie about to desert him, endeavored to get back his gifts by entering her room and carrying them off. He was found there by the girl's nether and arrested for larceny. The legal decision in this matter will be looked for with interest by many heretofore generous but now repentant lovers. C. W. McKay, scat of DonaldY , s prominent shipbuilder of Boston, has binar rested for a highway robbery, jointly wi.h two hard characters--the victim being a Roney broker named 0. H.

It on Thursday morning, between the mail and niccomodation trains, owing to the prevalence of a dense fog on the Leßceuff swamp west of Waterford sta tion. The latter train _was feeling its way at four to five miles an hour, the former at about ten. No one hurt except a alight bruise to one lady in the train going east. None of the care were knocked from the track, and but two wheels on each engine truck. The dam ages were but slight—not exceeding s2l7..—af ter a loss of a couple of hour. each engine pro ceeded with its own train. We do not learn that any person was spe cially in fault. Had there been no fog it could not possibly have occurred. The ac cident happened on one of the longest straight lines on the whole road ; but so dense was the fog that it was impossible to see a i.stanoe of three hundred feet. There should be a telegraph line on this road at once.
