Old Zoe a sBase enthusiastically,

The Breckenridge Yancey candidate for the

made speech We make the following ex-
tract from a report of his remarks
ga VOICE. What if Old Abe should be
elected:
..WelI-Isay that if he SHOULD be elected,
we will keep right on battling for the princi-
niles of the National Democratic party.
Should he be elected by his sectional party,
and on his sectional platform, We must con-
tent ourselves with the thought that four
years will quickly pass, and at the expiration
of that time the people will rise in their
might and place a man in the Presidential
chair who will stand by and to the principles
M the Constitution "a now eypounded by the
supreme Court and held by the Breckinridge
party. Loud cheers.] s-e, ts.ss
This sort of talk, on the part-of a Belle
man or a DOUGLAS man would be denounced
by the IMssissigpidn, the Nal, the Ardlanche
the Mercury, and other excessively Jealous
Breckinridge-Y ancey organs, as the Language
of a ..base submissionist." I'VE must con-
ten, ourselves with the thought that four
wears will quietly pass,n &c! What senti
ment for candidate whose most active sup
porters South swear that if Lincoln is elected
the South must secede from the Union. Ii

Holding 0mce Under Lincoln.

Some of the Breckenridge ancey organs
in the South express the opinion that, in the
event of the election OF LINCOLN to the Prcsi-
dency, no man in the South ought to hold
Office under him. 1t is probable that n POI
ton OF them are honest. and would really re-
gard it as disgracefal to serve under repnb-
lican administration. Others. it is quite as
probable, seek to get mp a public opinion
against the holding of office under LINCOLN,
so that, in case it shonld be his policy ia dis
miss democratic Office holders and appoint
Union men to their places, they may have
the means of crashing out The Union party,
and combining the whole South in one party.
This may be good party policy; but win It
succeed: We think not Should Mr. Liz
coin be- elected, it would lie polite on his
part 10 do everything in his power 10 disarm
the hostility of the democratic Senate, which
has to pass upon his nominations If he
should remove democrats, that would be
touching the democracy in the tender point,
and would make tho Senate fairly blaze. 1t
would convince the Senate that he intended
to destroy the South. and The check rein
would be put in use upon him. 1t is likely,
therefore. that he will make no removals in
the South, but permit those in office to hold
On. viii they hold on: Who can doubt it
We do not believe one in thousand will re-
fuse to serve and resign. Oh, no; they will
be glad to serve him, and 10 save the coun.
try. Point to the mau who will resign.

What VIII Mr.. Buchanan Do =

We ask the reader attention to the siSnih-
cant articles, which we republish this morn
ing from the Charleston Mercairy and the
Washington Staes. What means the transfer
of arms to Fort MOultrie, noticed by The
States? What will NJ. BUCHANAN DO, should
LINCOLN be elected and any Southern State
or States secede? We have not examined the
record to ascertain what views, If any, have
been expressed by Mr.. RCCHANAN upon the
right ol secession; but our recollection is,
that, in the controversy OF 1880, his sympa-
thies were with the Southern firc-caters and
nulliiiers. We do not doubt that his sympa-
be willing to be the last of the Presidents of
the United States
