The Bugbcnr Secession.

South Carolina, 1t seems morally certain,
has put an eXtinguisher on the bubble Dis
union. The signal triumph Of " Coopera-
tion'-that is, of the party which opposes
immediate Secession from the Union, and
insists that South Carolina shall consult and
cooperate with her sister States of the
South with respect to their mutual griev-
ances and the best means of redressing
them-is substantial counterpart of the
Union victories in Georgia, Alabama and
Mississippi. There may be some Secession
triumphs in the Plantation Parishes; but
we know that the Mountain Districts are al
most unanimous against Secession, and
their strength added to that OF Charleston Is
decisive. South Carolina will not secede,
nor even make a feint of SO doing. Her
Shareholders, notwithstanding all the clamor
of restless intriguerS for office, are quite
aware that their SlavehoIding interests are
decidedly safer IN the Union than they
could be out OF 1t, and they will not
