and predicted highly beneficial results to the two
tries from the negotiation of the treaty Of commercial
cprocity. The President in reply, coneurred with Mr.
Lee us 10 the results likely to be secured by the treaty,
and spoke in highly complimentary terms of the
in which he had conducted his negotiations.
We regret learn that the delicate state of Mr. Lees
health rendered his immediate return to the genial climate
of the Sandwich islands matter of imperative necessity
and which now prevents him from visiting, as he had
cpa.ed several European coursin the high capac
ty in which he was accredited to government
THE DANGER THICKENs.
We have abiding faith in the popular devotion to the
federal Union and shall reposc confidently upon the
decision of the people whenever the real danger and the
real issue presented to them The recent Inauguration
of the republican movement in New York by the fusion
the aboonsts and the wings under the auspices Of
Sewardism is bold and alarming step in the progress Of
disunonism. 1t matters not that that step is taken with
strong professions Of attachment to the Union These
professions made to impose upon the more timid OF
those who seduced into the coalition. The traitor who
makes open and undsgused warfare upon the constitution
and the Union is less dangerous than he who plots secret
hostility TO the conederacy by appealing to local preu-
dices for the promotion of sectional party, whilst he
seeks hide his real design under professions of patriotic
regard for the constitution We have dsunionists at the
North and the South and have those who are brazen
enough their treason as well as those who skuk
behind pretended patriotism but concoct schemes more
perous than the outspoken disunionists AT the North
there aboonsts who denouncc and scorn the Union
One of their organs the Lberator speaks as follows under
the following startling caption:
tsTHE DISSOLUTION OF UNION TO THE ABo-
IToN sLAvERyBut until to strike hands re-
giously politically, and governmentay with the South
ddanlar tha Tr;o Ia and
nothing against the encroachments of the slave power
upon rights. When will the people Of the North seeh
possible for liberty and slavery to comminge, or Tor
union to be formed between freemen and savehodess
Between those who Cypress and the oppressed concord
possible. This Unionis ie imposture, and our first
business is to seek its utter overthrow In this Union there
are three millions and half of slaves clankng their chains
hopeless bondage Let the Union be accursed Look at
the awful compromises Of the constitution by which that in
strument ia saturated with the blood Of the sayeP
Whilst the Union is repudiaed and denounced in this
style by the organ of the abolitonss at the North the
organ of the dsunionss at the South 1.-THE Charleston
Mercury responds proposition for the formation ola
southern party as follows:
ga pARry.All those in favor of the forma-
tion of for the union and safety Of THE
SouTH ohoM regard to esng nationo organxafion are
invited to the courthouse in Winnsboro the first
Monday in October next at H. M &
Thc above call signed by number of the first citizens
of Fairfield district has been published for time past
the Winnsboro Register. We need say that the organ
zaton party upon basis independent Of national parties
which shall be animated by the paramount idea of south
union, meets hearty concurrence 1t the only
party which protect from the aggreon Of tho
North and make the enemies of the South feel the metal Of
which her made.
But this movement is significant of another object, in
which South Carolina has peculiar and direct interest
The attempt subvert her and honored pocyto chain
her the chariotwheels of the national party
drown her voice, long, loud and eloquent in proea
lions against the wrongs Of the South in the greedy and
multuous cry for noto barter her influence honor
party which is impatient against abolition and powerle
for her proteconto wipe her solemn declarations
and raise in her borders shouts for the glorious Union
when that Union has lost all sancty respect in the Of
the North the attempt TO accomplish all this has
garing that we'll does become the men of the State
buckle their and down these unworthy and
suicidal schemes 1t is the work Of righteous and patriotic
DEVOTION"
We need not repeat what have so often said that
whenever the North and the South are arraycd against
each other, with political parties in the field exclusively
sectional their organizations The days Of the Union are
necessarily numbered The Charleston Mercury therefore
is but carrying its hostility to the Union when il advo-
Gates southern party and repudiaes the democratic
organization.
But whilst open disunionists whether at the North or
South dangerous because Of their strength when
acting sngy but because of their ability TO form coai
tons which powerful there are other disunonsts who
lack the courage the honesty avow their objects but
who are much more TO be dreaded OF this class the New
York Tribune is the acknowledge organ. That paper
announces the result of the coalition between the abo
tcnists and wings in New York in the following exult
| ant language:
"RsrunLIoASisM rNauauRArEp.--A noble work has be
accomplished by the friends of republican freedom at sya-
