First Fruits Of Linooln's Election.

According TO the promises aud predictions OF

unfortunately fully verified. The people OF
the South, justly alarmed for their safety, are
in state Of turbulent excitement which may

property, the raid Of Old Brown into Virginia,
the "irrepressibIe conflict" speeches Of Seward
and Lincoln, together with the aggressive and
inimcal attitude of the Republican party in It's
platforms, have operated to lndame the South
ern mind 10 such pitch of hostility toward
the newly elected President, that secession and
disunon have become the watchword, as it
were, OF Southern safety and honor. South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and
other Southern states are openly preparing
for severance from the remainder ofthe con-
federacy. As natural consequence, the com

and ''HARD TINES" with their attendant ter
