It is as though" the waters of Niagara were turned back at the very verge of the falb. The plung ing torrent thus arrested must break over its banks and spread devastation on cither hand. The North, that would have desolated, the South, i3 now threatened with desolation. The North, that would have been the cruel and inex orable arbiter of Southern fate, is now in a po sition to deprecate its own. For these many yeara the men who have organized opinion and directed politics in the North, have been, assidu ously depicting the dreadful evil3 which the con tinuance of negro slavery would bring upon the .rvruiu, uju IJ-IC uut iC3 UfUtUIUI f VilS V lilCU would follow, if the South should resort to se cession for the purpose of protecting negro slave ry from Northern Abolitionism. Nothing, they were in the habit of saying, could result from Southern measures of self-defence. and indepen dence but universal commercial paralysis, fright ful social disorder?, insurrection and anarchy, throughout the. slaveholdiug State?. Vet seven slaveholding States, have seceded,, and all the rest,, without an important exception, are nearly' certain, ultimately, to secede : and. commerce m the South is by no means paralyzed, the social system of the South never appeared more stable and harmonious ; anarchy within the Southern borders exists nowhere but in the malign hope of our enemies, and insurrection among South ern slaves 13 only a rhetorical vision of Aboli tionism. But evils will flow from Southern secession, evils are now beginning to flow from Southern secession, very similar in their nature to those which Northern orators, and writers have pre dicted for the South in sirch an event ; and it is not the fault of the South if these evils are fall ingllpon those whose intollerant spirit ami ag gressive course necessitate ihe measures from which they resui No, it is not the fault of the Sooth if the him. of retributive destiny is com mending to Northern lijs the poisoned chalice which Morthtrn malignity had mixed for our3. No, not one wound in the murdered body of the old Union effuses a bloody auccsation against us. No, the body and the murder both lie at the Northern door.

Its uolitiei.-iiis nml innmnh M majr iU vain iry io conceal tne disease, but it is too apparent in the throes of the victim for con cealment. The commerce of Northern sea-ports is menaced with the most dire disasters. North ern manufactories have ruin staring them in the face. They already crumble stone by stone; but a little while-yet. and they must fa'il with a mighty crash, aud the whole fabric of Northern industry and commerce will be shattered by such a shock us -'when an earthquake -gapes and mumbles its huge hps o'er sunken cities.'' From material Calaiuitk-s political and social discontents and disorders will be sure to spriii". Labor will think of rcvemrini'j ifs auffprincre nf- on capital. Capital will become a fugitive from labor. States' will think of separately fiudin a remedy for evils inflict -d by A central despotism. Cities wil. consider whether thev can not save their commerce -by-relieving themselves from State oppression. Thus, thei idea of making New York a tree city is already agitated, and several of the Western and Xorthcvn st-,t,.- ..,. already restive at the prospect of commercial evils growing out of a high-handed coer cive policy on the part of the inconiin Republican Administration. " :.' Ve do uot wish the Northern people Ji.mn. We would separate from them peaceably, and live near them amicably. We wish them a ha- py denverauce from the. thick1 troubles that are to come. But irr;no conceivable event can we perceive how they are to escape great perils and disasters. Let peace or war prevail, the domes tic tranquility .of the South is. not jiikelv to be seriously disturbed Wc will be a united, self- reliant people, and can, if need be, be self-sustaining. Aud to the South, therefore the active capital of the North would naturally be attract ed for safety and profitable investment, and the useful arts of the North would-'naturally be at tracted for eniplyment and ample remuneration. The skillful labor of North America would not be destroyed, it would oulv 1 a different field. The commerce of North Amer ica would not be diminishod, but rather stimu lated to still more prosperous development; but the great seat of that commerce w.puld be in the South, Such would be the outcome of the joint work of fanaticism and sectional ambition The North would wither, the South would flour ish. No activities would be left in the North, but the baleful activities of intolerant opinion. No creed .would be left, there but a- Pharisaical creed 'of self-worship iu the narAe of "higher law."
