If we would avoid divisions in our borders and among our own people, If we would escape a post Uou of colonial dependence and servitude, debasing in its influences, hecauaa holding out Federal honors and rewards as the price of treachery to the South, then must we escape at once from our present unfortunate political relaliona. 1 bis ia tbe plain logic of events when subjected to tbe tests of experience as shown in 'the history of all nations Shall we watch and wait until untold horrors or unbearable humiliations are up- oo as, or shall we be equal to tbe management of our own affairs, willing to assert at least a participation In deciding our own destinies t II Virginia, with the experience of past and the cer tainty of future failure before ber, chooses, at tbe bidding of certain political managers, to palter over couftrences fand all such now nseleas lumber, we do hope that North "Carolina will have sufficient self-respect to keep out of that scrape at least Tbe Governor has no power by law to appoint Commissioners to any such body, and i trust that no doubtful discretionary or constructive 'power will be thought of. If Virginia ia no longer the Old Virginia of which her children had once so many reasons to be proud, let not North Carolina again be quoted as her servile follower, even when she does wrong. Let North Carolina rather assert her independence, take the lead, and Virginia will soon follow and be herself again, true to the South, instead of being a mcra out post of the North, negotiating for delay upon frivolous pretence. Almost a Fatal Accident. We karn that yester day afternoon about 4 o'clock, as the carriage of Dr. Thomas Hill of Brunswick, having in it tbe Doctor's wile and two children, with tbe driver and a female servant, attempted to enter the Ferry flat at the foot of Market street, aoJ after the horses bad got on board, the chain Us teeing broke, and tbe fore wheels of tbe carriage, Striking the flat, caused it to move out inW tbe dock, the weight of the carriage dragging tbe horses after it sat it went down. Tbe carriage wu not quite submerged, bat tba horses went down over their beads. Fortunately tbe accident occurred at a time of tbe day when there are usually a number of pcrsous about the dock, and through their timely exertions all tbe oc eapanta of tbe carriage were rescued with no more se rious results than a complete wetting.' Tbe horses and carriage were abw saved with little damage except to tbe harness. Borne bundles, etc, in the carriage were - M doubt injured by watetv. ; K-We learn from tbe Sumter (S. C.) Walikman, of the 29 th Inst, that a destructive fire occurred at that place on the night of tbe 27th insL, destroying nine buildings, estimated to be worth about $25,000, upon which there wu very little insurance. Amongst tbe buildings, destroyed, wu the large brick two-story town building, appropriated in its several apartments u Pub- Bo DaU, Post Office, Fire Engine House, Council Cham ber, and Music Store of Messrs. Thomson t Gilbert There was also a large amount of goods destroyed. 4 Ei:aor ajtd TBI Bocth. Tbe commercial article of fiat Paris Constitution nd of March 3 says:.

The New York Tribune has tbe following, under date or Washington, March 20th : Cuptain Fox, who vwited Fort h'umter on the requi sition of the War Department, lias returned here and reported the nsult of.

It is very well un derstood tbat he bad a plan lor introducing reiolorce monti. which bad been submitted to members of the LViioct, and Was regarded as iiM-asurably practicable, but attended with the nrobubilitf . if not ccrtaintv ol rcolligloo, which constituted tbe chitil olijtctien toils adoption, lie is perructly futniliur with all the ap proaches to me naroor or manesiou, Imviug been long connected with tbe coast survey and bad practical experience u tbe commander got one ol A pin wall's: steamers. His scheme did not contemplate any serious danger in running the gauntlet ol tbe bat teries on tbe islands which guard tbe channels, but only iuMandlng the men aud provisions at b'u inter, after it bad been reached. If a fire was ojiciied upon his tran sports from Fort Moultrie or tbe other batteries, it would be mecsfiiry for Sumter to silence tbcm in order to dis charge the reinforcements. Any attempts', tberelorc, looking to that object would almost inevitably lead to bloodHhed, and belore resorting to It, the administration would be constrained to expect that alternative. Even if successful without great loss of life, nothing would be f rained but tbe retention ol a fortress which has only a oca! value in protecting Charleston, and is of no natioo si moment whatever. Capt Fox is fully impressed with tbe courage, integ rity aud sinarity of Major Anderson, with whom, how ever, his communication was necessarily limited, as (Jo v. "Pickens sent Capt. llartstein, late of our navy, as an escort wiid mm to me lort, wno kept witnia earshot during most of tbe interview, or at least near enough to prevent any free communication. lie considers tbut the fort can be reinforced either by. a military opera- tion, which, w eouwp, would require a force not at the disjicBul of the President, or by the strategy al ready referred to, with its attendant hazards of a des perate conflict. Tbe supply of provisions now in tbe garrison will probably enable Major Anderson to sus tain his command reasonably well until tbe 15th of April." From all the" facts disclosed by Xt'm Investiga tion, it is maniftst that Fort Hamter must be abandoned, or civil war inaugurated. CupU Fox is cautious, intel ligent and well informed, and was brought to tbe notice ol the government by Mr. Aspfnwall, and some of the principal ship-owners of New York aod Boston.

Iu tbe revolution now prognssiug, and since the shameful end insulting propositions submitted by the Teace Congress, a revolution equally more justifiable and more presttngly important than that ol '76, it is to be hoped that every son of N orth Carolina will be found to array himself on what we now clawi'y as the " whig " side on the side of the South, against the unconstitu tional exactions of the Scwurd-Liiicolu adminiMtration.

From tbe New York Tribune. 1 ha Kutare. What spectacle is this country to present within the next yenrf Where shall we be politically in the year 1862 7 These questions are of the gravest import, not to be pasFcd over simply because tbey are disagreeable. Serious troubles threaten us, and it u cowardly to look away from tbem and take no thought whither tbey are likelv to lead us. Before last November threats of disuipon were com mon enougn, dui no one supposed tney were anytntng more than electioneering tricks. Indeed, so frequently had these tbreuU been made before, that no one had any reason to regard tbem as-of any practical importance. I hey were accordingly received either wiin inumerence or with mirth! ul rwuarks j aud the , general opinion seeuied to be tbat the South could not be forced out of the Union. It was anraed by those who cared to ar ena at all about it, that the very existence of slavery depended upon tbe Union.; that no slave State would dare to have Canada carried down to its borders; that slave insurrections would occur as soon as the heavy bund of the Federal Government was withdrawn from the inati t' U9 institution; and that the dread of John Brown raids would alone prove sufficient to keep the slave States In the Union. It would seem now that great ignorance prevailed at tbe North as to the real situation of tbe sUve States. At all events, we rcckopcd too rapidly and accepted possible ultimate results as immediate ef fects. Tbe slave States which lie most remote from tbe tree, bave earnestly, boldly, successfully seceded, and es tablished a Confederacy founded upon slavery Tbe have framed a OouBtitutioo, established a de facto government, assumed an attitude of armed hostility to ward tbe United States, and are at this moment making demands more befitting conquerors than rebels. Two tiers ot slave States lie between them and free States, and those intermediate States are diaafltcted towards tbe Union, and act as allies to the seceded States. Tbe actual condition of things ia pretty much as il one of three partners should be robbing the, firm of its property, while a second should hold the lar gest proprietor and threaten bim with death in case be resisted. Tbe slave States which still remain in the Union, with two or three exceptions will be ready to leave it as soon as their end ol shielding tbe seceders shall be accomplished, unless they can compel the people of tbe free States to adopt such degrading and revolting amendments to tbe Constitution as shall be acceptable to all tbe slave States. It is true that tbe Union party, so called, is uppermost in tbe slave States which have not seceded ; but it is about tbe same sort of a Union party aa tbat lately existing in Geor gia, with Vice-President Stephens at its head. II, say these Union states, you. coerce tbe seceded States we will take no aims arainst vou. and quit the Union. If you do not adopt amendments to tbe Constitution making slavery a truly national in stitution, we shall withdraw from the UniooV If you let the Beceders do exactly as tbey pleaae, and Defer draw Iri ti.

Such is tbe tone of tbe Union slave Sta'es, or rather of the Union party in those State ; and the day is not distant when tbey will meet in Convention, and dictate term to the people and tbe government of the U. States which must either be accepted or rejt'cted. Tbe tinie is fast approaching when even Gov. Sewaid most declare Aow far he is willing to go lor the Unioo ; aud be mut resnond not in pmnt rli -duration, but in plain, practical tsngBige-fiOt In The atiStm ttWtrrrJcwiCTeteriat tbe U sutiiul image of tbat fast-sailing frigate entering a foreign port with 34 stars in her bunting is to bide the bakful and ghastly spectre of slavery extension from Mr. Hewsrd's y ay we dare not believe. Hut when tbe question comes up it ia not to be met by glittering gen eralities. It is not t) be answered by saying thut " Freedom is always in tbe Union ;". nor is it to be an swered by any political man holding high office. The North will at length be driven to take a position and to hold it, and if the Republican party prove unequal 'to tbe occasion, soother party will supersede it, even u it superseded the eflete and cmaculate Whig party. W hope the position assumed will be a proud and manly one ; we cannot believe it will be a tame ub miasion. Rut to refute to submit to degrading terms will not be a mere matter of form. If may either in volve us in war, or compel us to treat with tbe slave States as a sovereign nation. 1 be way, and we fear tbe only way, of preventing a war, as tne alternative of subruisiiion, or a trealy, is to be fully prepared for iu Unit we desire lo see Mr. Liocoio a fugitive irom Wasuineton, with Gov. Seward at bis beets, we must be prepared either to. yield up everytbirg io tbe way of political principle, or to acknowlcilce the Southern Con iederary, or to protect tbe seat of government against all comers. Aspuruinir that we shall neither acknowledge ine Hlack Republic, nor submit to tbe demands of its allies, we cannot too urgently appeal to tbe Administration to prepare to meet force with force, and maintain tne hon or and independence of tbe United States at all hazards. It is loolish to attempt now to shape public policy to suit f he border slave States. If free goods are to be al lowed to enter tbe slave States, to be sent thence to tbe free States, why is it not better at once to give up the contest, divide tbe Territorks, tbe Army aod Navy, and make tbe best terms we can with Jtflerson Davis? If tbe forts arc to be surrendered, .whether from military necessity or otherwise, and everything that Virginia chooses to call coercion is to be avoided, why not own at once that tbe only branch of Government which tbe lenders of tbe Republican party can successfully conduct is the distribution ol otlices r BuTtbe fuiuretgrunder God, ttrnnr own keeping- It is our own duty to prepare for it ; and it our means are insufficient to meet its demands, it is the duty of tbe 1 'resident to call an extra session of Congress and ak for all the means required. I bere are too many ele ments of dbcord in our political system, to render it sale to doubt that war can be avoided by any othtr moaus than being prepared for it. Tbe price we are now ruiuircd to pay. to keep Uie border slave States, is sufficiently monstrous to make ns expect yet greater exactions. If we show a disposition to pay that price, viz : no coercion, no collecting tbo revenue, no holding of our fortifications, and all kinds of concessions on tbe slavery ancstioo, it will not be long before we ttre warned by Virginia not to enlist another man, not to put in commission another shin, not to concentrate another regiment, under tbe penalty of another stampede of the slave border Mates. If, tben, we have, or expect to have, anything that can be called a Government, now is the time lor decided, en ergetic, (Qectire action .

The New York Commercial, at one time a staid old whig journal, but now intensely republican, earnestly calls for an extra sciwion or ConirreHs to repeal tne aiorrui " woon screw" tariff law. It bints that if not repealed, nulli fication may be resorted to at the North. II ere is its lan guage : rbe people of tbe North are undoubtedly a law- abiding tieople, and they will obey much rather than evade or defy tbe laws. Hut their commerce is therr first interest, and if a high scale of import duties is enforced at their ports, while Importations are admitted free or with a comparatively nominal duty at tbe South, there is grave reason to fear tbat one of two temptations will be yielded to either the law will be evaded, and systematic smuggling will be resorted to or tbe law will be set atdefiunce.
