From the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. A Rallying Refrain for Breekinridgt
 and Lane.
BY J. E. TuEL.


 Unfurl your banner once again.
 fe men Of Equal Rights unshaken! fonr eouatry calls---nor calls in vain;
 While patriot fires your hearts awaken: fonr country calls, as to the field
 Which Lincoln spnrned, and Lane with abre Defended, for land which shields
 Her equal rights to law and labor! Then with one voice proclaim your choice From Northern hills to Southern valleys That not in vain the gallant Lane.
 And Breekinridge your Country rallies. The people call on every side To rouse the sluggish heart to action | They shout from old Niagara's tide To Rocky Mounta ins-DEArH TO FACTION ! From Carolina's cotton plains
 To where New England's corn is cleaning. Inelr voice ascends in bugle strains. For equal rights to all proclamingl Then with that voice proclaim your choice From Eastern hills to Southern valleys, That not in vain, for gallant Lane
 And Breckinridee the People rallies. They who despise all foreign wars.
 And on domestic rights would trample, The rights which you through blood and scars s-. Wrung from the foe through Lane's example, Remember they wonid spurn you show, While for treason archly pleading Now, as then, would baseiy bow,
 While your Country's wounds were bIeedingl Then with one voice proclaim your choice fPm the Nations hills and valleys, Ihatrnot in vain for gallant Lane g9 sY : And Breckinridge the Nation rallies. @,vsM The trumpet blast of war pcaled out, Your conntry's flag declared in danger To arms! went forth the Union shout Drive back the bold insulting stranger The Patriot names inscribed on hgh-- Your eagle banners folds dispiaying- Awake again the battle cry,
 The Unions trumpet call obeyingi With trumpet voice unite your choice, From Western wilds to Southern valleys That not in vain for gallant Lane And Breckinridge the Union ralliesi

Extradition of Fugitive Slaves in

The whole province will hear with regret
that in tho case of Anderson, the fugitive

who was attempting to take him back into

to bring it within the provisions of tho
Ashburton treaty, and that he must bo
handed over to the United States authori-
ties, 10 be dealt with according to tho bar
barous law of tho state from which no has
escaped. We confess ourselves surprised
at this result, and are glad that Anderson's

Of British law which requires an interpreta.

British law which we have already cited
as lavoring the liberty OF the subject

The President,p q Proclamation,

What could be more ridiculous than
the Proclamation Of President Buchanan,
designating the 4th proximo as day Of
fasting, humiliation and prayer ? Had
he taken less conspicuous part in bring
ing about the present alarming crisis in
our national affairs, it would not SAVIOR
quite SO strongly Of hypocrisy but, after
all chat has transpired since he came into
Office, it looks very much like invoking
the people to pray God TO avert the le-
gitimntc consequences of his own acts.
The Pittsburgh Dispatch is reminded by
this Proclamation Of The grocer and his
boy. John" said he, "have you
watered the viaegar?" "Yes." "Haye
you sanded the sugar ?" "Yes."-
"7Hen le! US go TO prayers" We have
little faith that suCh prayers will not prove
an abominalion in the sight OF God and
all good men.
We commend the following poeticnI uc-
count Of a Prayer Meeting in Storm"

The Independence of South Carolina
Declared

The insane folly OF South Carolina eliminated on
Thursday Of last week, in the unanimous pnssago
by her Convention Of the following Ordinance OF
SECESSION
We. the people Of South Carolina, In Convention
nssemh led, do declare and ordnin that the Otdi-
nSnce adopted by us in the Convention OF the
92d Of May, l77s, Whereby the Constitution oil the
United States was ratified, and all acts and parts
of acts Of the General ssemby Of the State. rat.
jfyinp amendments TO the soid Constitution, nre
hereby repealed, and the union now subsisung
between South Carolina and other States, under
the uau1e OF the United States oil America, Is
hereby dissolved.
The news that South Carolina had seeded was
received by our people with extreme indifference.
II it were only real, aud not a reasonable farce,
we think that instead Of seriously regretting it,
they would feel greatly relieved. But, un 'ortu.
nstely, South Carolina is still member of the
Union, and likely in future to prove greater tax
upon the nation than hitherto,
Her sages in Convention were so intent on
consummating the great deed OF ALL that they
finally seeded without making provision for
working tho new Government, and when last
heard from, were grayely considering whether it
might not be well to allow Uncle Sam to carry
the mails and do other little chores for South
Carolina, until she should be able 10 take care OF
herself
Commissioners have been sent TO Washington,
inly empowered 10 negotiate for oil Government
property within the limits Of South Carolina, and
as much more as she may be justly entitled to-.
We presume they will be received by Mr.. Bu.

tives Of a frst.ciuss foreign power, with which il
is desirable for the United States, during the res
idue Of his Administration, to be at peace.
