Mr.. KEnT OF South CAROLINA, on DIsuNIoN-
BROOKS STILL AHEAp-We published yesterday
the terrible speech OF the Hon. Mr.. Keitt, of
South Carolina, lately delivered at Lynchburg,
Virginia, on the Presidential question. II is
South Carolina all over. with secession and dis
union flashing over il and through it, like the
lightning over and through heavy thunder
cloud. 1t is understood that Mr. Kett aspires to
the leadership of the young chivalry Of the Pal
metto State; but having been set back little by
Mr.. Brooks, and his peculiar vindication Of
Southern rights on the floor Of the Senate
Mr.. Kctt has been anxiously waiting for
an opportunity to do something particularly
brilliant and telling The opportunity was
afforded at Lynchburg the other day; and
through our faithful Virginia reporter We have
been enabled to give Mr. Keitt the full be-
nefit OF our worldwide circulation to help him
along. John Bull will prick up his ears when be
reads this alarming speech; Louis Napoleon will
say an American coup d'eta is coming; and the
gold diggers, away out yonder in Australia, will
thank God they arc out of the reach of the i'm
pending disasters threatened the Americans by
this young son Of thunder of South Carolina.
The particular point in this Lypchburg speech
of Mr.. Keitt, is in the following extract
What esei With the current OF events the repeal ard

In It's wild defiance sweeping the North has made the
restoration Of this line the issue The South has taken

south can stay with the North in this Union, s,ig

Pretty good for Mr. Keitt. THE Southern
man" be says, who will submit to Fremont's
election is a traitor and a coward But Keitt
is not yet up 10 the mark Brooks is still ahead.
Keitt is man Of words; but Brooks l. a man Of
action. Keitt declares an opinion; but Brooks
proposes a measure. Keitt says the Southern
man who will submit to Fremonts election is
q coward and traitor but Brooks boldly pro.
poses, should Fremont be elected, TO march a
Palmetto regiment to Washington, and sieze the
treasury Of the United States: and Gov. Wise is
with Bully Brooks. In view of this cbivalric de-
sign to rob the treasury at Washington
would il not be well for Secretary Guthrie to at
once ship off his surplus cash there, for safe keep
ing. to the sub-trcasury Of New York?
There is some palliation, however, for Mr.
Keitt. lie is an impulsive young son OF thunder
rolling thunder-and has been led astray by
the peculiar popularity Of Mr.. Brooks and the Sc
,.r al
hacks as Mcssrs. Buchanan, Toombs. Fillmore,
Wise. johnson of Ca Slidell of La, and other
secession humbugs. Mr.. Keitt may be in
earnest while he ought to know that these old
chaps are laughing at him in their sleeves. They
know that this scarecrow idea OF dssolving this
Union is utterly absurd; and We should not be
surprised in the least if we were to live TO see
Mr.. Keitt himself holding good fat Office under
Fremcnt's administration. Dissolve the Union
If Fremont is elected POOH March upon Wash.
ngton and seize the treasury! Bah Southern
submission. cowardce and treason Bosh gas
stuff. moonshind The Jacobins Of Paris issued q
decree abolishng the Christian religion; and the
attempt Of Southern seccssionists to break up this
Union. if they were to try it, would fail as sg-
naly as tho revolving basphemy OF the Jacobins
Down with the Jacobins. We Fremont, the
Union and the Constitution! Wind North. Skies
bright Pass Mr.. Kcitt
Mr.. CoBB on HIS TRAvELs.--lt appears that
ex- Governor Cobb, of Georgia, has been regular
ly enlisted as a Southern missionary for Bucha-
nan in Pennsylvania, and is travelling the State
and stumping Southern democracy in his behalf
Very good but il would be still better to send
for Mr.. Keitt as Pennsylvania travelling com
panon Of Mr.. Cobb. Between the pair Of them,
with Col. Forney working the wires, they ought
TO be able TO secure the State to Fremont and
