LONDON, SATURDAY, JAN. 19, 1881.

The American news, brought by the Fulton
consists so largely of what is " reported," " said,"
or " telegraphed" from one place to another, that
little reliance can be placed upon even its proba-
bility. The fast day, appointed by the PRESIDENT,
was very generally observed in New York, shops
shut, business suspended, and appropriate sermons
preached. The tenour of these discourses we have
not learned. We suppose the righteous North,
which cannot admit a coloured man into a white
man's pew, weeping over the sins of the South
for denying that a black man is more than a
Yahoo. The southern members of the Senate have
avowed their determination to prevent the collec-
tion of the Revenue at Charleston by Parliamentary
tactics. The PRESIDENT has nominated a collector
for the port in the place of the one who has resigned
—but his nominations to offices must be confirmed
by the Senate. These men therefore declare that
they will avail themselves of all the forms of the
House to prevent the confirmation of the nomina-
tion even coming before it. The South Carolina
Commissioners have left Washington, as the
PRESIDENT at length declined to acknowledge
them. In Congress nothing conclusive
has been done, and though it seems pretty certain
that Georgia is bestirring herself, little credit is to
be attached to the rumours of military action.
They are, indeed, not unlikely to be true, but may
as probably be exaggerations of trifles. The report
of the attack planned against Fort Sumter is,
beyond doubt, a canard. The Legislatures of the
Northern States are discussing the crisis. The
" Personal Liberty Laws" are a principal topic.
The Governnor of Michigan denies that they
have hindered the arrest of a single fugitive. The
Governor of Massachusetts recommends their re-
peal ; Massachusetts is the chief manufacturing
State. The Governor of Missouri,, and the
border slave States, generally, seem disposed,
though holding comparatively few slaves, to stand
by the other slave States should secession become
a fact. At present, the Southern States are going
on full swing; the President seems to be a little
firmer; and the Northern States are, rather than
otherwise, showing symptoms of inclination to
concede a little. We hope they will not succumb.
From remarks we make elsewhere it will be seen
they are not compelled to do so.

English farming is rapidly becoming, even in
the popular apprehension of the phrase, a food
manufacture. The economists, of course,
would
tell is it was always so; and we beg to agree
with the economists, if we are to be permitted
to use acienti4c language in a column 440464
