Mr.. Pryor. Then, again, from the democratic
secession organs Of South Carolina, Georgia,
Lna;siars and Mississippi the most suggestive
admonitiors, warnings and threats have been
thrown out against Nr.Buchanan, his Cabinet
and his Kansas policy. Next comes the late
speech of Mr.. Douglas, at Springfield, lii.
noir. which shows that the ramiHcations
Of this decentralization and secessionis
movement extend beyond the boundaries
of the Southern States.
Thus, upon the Kansas issue, as upon the Cali
foInia question, we may prepare for sharply
defined Southern ultra organization, but upon q
far more extensive and formidable scale than the
Nashville Conventions, and the South Carolina,
Georgia and Mississippi secession experiments of
1851. This movement for 1860 has been CON-
menced this time in Virginia, with its leaders and
its Affiliations awaiting the drift of events in all
the other Southern States We have no partica-
lar reason for blowing the trumpet of Gov. WISE
His conduct towards this journal and it's editor
has been mean, contemplate and slanderous; and
his course rs politician has been cratic, Zig
zagRy, and often ridiculous. We have no recol
lections of this sort against Mr.. Hunter; but as
statesman, bis course in the Senate and on the
stump has been sngu'arjy high toned, decorous
ardiT Of all dirty vugarities Bot in the matter
before u.s. we consult the fitness Of Thugs il is
manifest that the political relations of Mr.. Wise
to Mr.. Buchanan suggest the propriety of giving
to the former the position of tho financial organ
of the administration, now occupied by Mr. Hun
ter, ss Chairman of the Senate Committee of FL
nance or Ways ard Means II is OF the last i'm
poitance that this chairman shall have the fullest
confidence of the administration. The issue thus
presented to the Virginia Legislature is, whether
in electing their Senator they will elect TO place
Mr.. Buchanan superior or subordinate to the Sc
cession faction now organizing to break down his
administration and 10 distract and divide the
Union.
We rely upon the COED sense of the Virginia
people; we arc confident that twill be expressed
in their choice Of Senator-Wisc or otherwise
reduced TO this exact issue OF support or resis
tance to the administration. But we are aware
of what may be expected in the event of Hun
ter's defeat an open, instead OF covert oppo-
siton to the administration from the secession
fac.ion-a rebellious secession from the party
camp, instead Of mutinous conspiracy within.
So let ii be. Between the Kansas policy which
Mr.. Buchanan has adopted and surrender to
the demands of faction of sectional ag;tators
there IL but one course for him, and that is the
exact course which he is now pursuing. The
sooner, then, these secessionist mutineers are
smoked out the better.
The old women Of the rural districts need not
be alarmed. We may have q Southern ultra
niger driving party and Northern niger wor-
shipping party arrayed against each other, and
against the Union in 1860, but, as heretofore,
the sterling common sense of the whole country
will be equal to al emergencies In his calm,
honest, impartial and conservative course Mr..
Buchanan will be sustained, and when brought to
tue teet Of internal discords, general bankruptcy
and dissolution, or Union, concillation and uni
verssl prosperity, the substantial Southern slave
holder aid the Northern banker, manufacturer,
merchant and railroad director will find that
their interests, and that, North and South, the
interests OF oil classes are blended together.
No fears, therefore, need be entertained of the
disorganizing sectional movements and principles
Of such agitstors Of discord and disunon as JEFF
ferson Davis, the New Orleans Data, the Rich
mosd South, Mr.. Rhett, and their secession
associates and followers, nor Of such niger
worshipping demagogues and fanatics a. Seward,
Greeley, Garrison and such in the North. Az
the material interests Of ell classes and all Gee
lions are pledged to the Union; and all the solid
business men, North ard South, are thus bound
over to keep the peace. Let these sectional dis.
turbers, then, proceed with their plots and
schcmeA An honest and impartial national nd.
ministratlon will be sustained, aaa party treache
~ ond sectional conspiracies, whether organized
at Albany, or Richmond, or Washington, will be
ANONYMOUSLY defeated. Against all traitors
from within and all enemies from without. TIE
mighty destiny Of this great and grand republic
must be fulfilled.
