"THE UNION TO BE DISSOLVED. /"

The acceptable argument of the abolition enemies
of the constitution Of the United States is that nobody
destroy the Unionhat the South would be the first to
protest against disunionnnd that nothing not the
dagger and the got of the murderer and the ncendary
could force any part of the people into such catastrophe
Hence it is, presume that acting upon this belief the
northern fanatics such violent exrenites in ad
vocating their baleful ethics Suddenly however We
find this of argument changed entirely and all
once called upon believe and to denounce
famous plot cuncocted here in Washington the object
which TO dissolve the Union the earliest convenience
wind and weather permitting. Washington correspond
ent of the New York Express under date of the 10th June
lets this very dark of the bag and tells the country
that be has from certain distinguished senator for
of century in the public councils and that this scheme
isl scheme of the South and conemplates the seizure
Cuba part of Mexico and of California and then adding
these to the southern States form republic distinct
from the northern States The venerable senator who
stands sponsor for this expose the whole affair
early day in the Senate "And may all be there
see The correspondent of the Express states the case
lu; ubriousy enough and adds with drawing rhetoric
peculiarly Characteristic:
Even moderate, calm, and Intelligent southern men
heselv in favor OF separation They advocate the
men OF plan for amcabe dissolution Of the copartner
ship which has existed for seventy eight years They
they tired of these eternal chickering's and qsarre and
wish to live hereafter in and quiet They regard the
tsavery party daily increasing at the North, and do
not anticipate future reaction against it, They have
come to the conclusion that there is national antagonsm
between the Nosh and the South and that they eas,
would be better off If released from the Union They pro
e have counted the cost and have fully estimated all
the chances, whether for or against separation"
fort awaken northern feeling against the South We
tell these sorry buugles that their miserable ugges have
ceased TO deceive nation that knows their tricks by heart
The fires Of fanatcism in the North dying out too
late for and too for doubt and the wretche
gamblers who calculate the value Of this Union as they
would calculate the rise and fall of stocks will find that
their ridiculous farce viii impose upon nobody-no even
upon those credulous fools who take them to be patriots
instead Of traitors Never before there deeper pro-
founder religious fervor in the South for our
blessed Union The citizens Of that section Of the coned-
ency feel themselves knitted that Union by the
passage Of the Kansas-Nebska bin aud they their
solid interests expanding their cities locked in bands
Of iron to the cities Of the North their people mingng
with those Of the free States and behold the broad path
opened TO all that leads future dazzling with the
quests Of liberty and Of peace they scarcely hear the nsan-
tiles Of northern demsgoguc they do it's only to know
tina, the back Of all this noise there quiet but ressess
sentiment which in the hands Of brave men awaits but
opportunity to put down the enemies Of the Union.
When raokers in flsshood like Greeley-brokers in
nations fears like Parker-hypocries who laugh at God
and at the American Union in the breath like Phil
pshnd it necessary fghten the weak with the lie
that the Union is in danger from the South rely upon it
they have half abandoned their TRADE Of turbulence and Of
treason.
