The Aspect OF secession-Manifest Duty Of
the south. the North aad the Presidsnt
Elect.
The aspect of the secession movement pre-
gents little change from that which IL presented
on the first conviction that Mr.. Lincoln had re-
ceived a majority of the votes of the electoral
college. In the South the alarm and agitation
continue undated, and the North is begi :
ming to contemplate the possible evil results t.
trade and industry that will follow secession
movement In the Southern States.
1t is evident that all parties are waiting for
the smoke of battle to clear away and the FIRST
ebullitioDs OF passion to subside, in order that
calm view may be taken of the field, enabling
us to see what positions have been lost or won,
and what course is best to be pursued under
the circumstances. Already there are certain
great results looming up clearly to view which
should have an important influence on public
men everywhere, In their discussions as to the
best policy to be followed for the interests of
the whole country and of the several sections
that compose It.
First among these is the important and over
shadowing fact that very large majority of
the popular vote Of the country 10 opposed to
Mr.. Lincoln: that he has been elected by
minority vote through the division of bis op-
ponents; that this division of the national SEN
timent in opposition to the black republican
policy was brought about by the persistent
ambition, the folly and the criminal selishness
of politicians and party leaders. Next in i'm
portance to this we have another remarkable
fact which is that the minority vote in the
Northern States which has stood firmly against
the fanaticism of the hour, exceeds in its sg-
gregate by at least two -ffths the whole united
vote OF the Southern States this being about
100000; while the opposition vote of the North
has reached probably 100000. A third re-
suit, already visible on the great battle field of
Dational politics is the returns of the Congress.
sional elections, which chow that Mr.. Lincoln
will have both branches of Congress opposed
to him from the very start, as will be seen by
the following table,

THE SYRIAN RELIEF FUSD-It appears by .
statement published by the Syrian Relief Com.
mitiee that the sum forwarded from this coun-
Try ($2O.000) Is already exhausted, and that
resh exertions will have to be made to provide
sustenance during the winter for the destitute
Christian population of the Lebanon. We have
no doubt that this fresh appeal will be cheer
fully and literally responded to by our people.
There is no cause-political. religious or chart
table-thst does not promptly meet with a..
sistance here. 1t Is not long since we gave
$4,000 to assist the Pope, and $4,000 to
aid Garibaldi, thus proving at once our I'm
partially and universally of sympathy. When
we can thus lavish money on both sides of the
same question, we can well afford to bestow q
little extra aid on the Eastern Christians, whose
sufferiDgs have a common claim on all classes
Of our fellow citizens.

MORALITY Or wEsr-The immortality Of
New York Is favorite theme with country edi-
tors. In another week or two the Chicago press

way at home. The great divorce case Of
Burch vs.. Burch, which Is TO be tried

before our Northern courts. The plaintiff is a
banker moving In the best society Of Chicago,
whilst the defendant, his wife, lie niece to one
Of our railroad magnates and leading politicians
OF the State Of New York. Large sums Of money
have been spent by both parties In getting up
evidence to blacken and destroy each Others
character. Witnesses have been hunted up In
all parts Of the country; early antecedents have
been diligently investigated, and even the sur
roundings Of childhood narrowly inquired into,
20 strengthen the case on both sides. From oil
appearances this trial promises TO be one Of the
most remarkable In the catalogue Of domestic
difficulties which have formed the subject Of

These three great facts mark out to us the
general outlines Of the policy that should be
pursued by the patriotic and national senti-
ment Of the country, North and South, demon
strating as they do these great truths.
That Mr.. Lincoln, even If 90 disposed, can do
nothing against the vital interests Of the South
during the frst two years Of his administration,
inasmuch as his party is in q minority in both
houses Of Congress.
That, In the Union, the South has allies in the
North more numerous than It's own vote and
which have every probability of becoming pre-
ponderating II moderate counsela prevail
That the present preponderating party in the
Northern States has within itself the seeds OF IN
early disintegrstion, in the anomalous character
Of its elements comprising fAnstic snH-slsvery
men and moderate free sellers, high tariff men
and free traders, violent opposers of the Fugi-
tive Slave law, and conservative republicans
who sustain it-and in the personal struggles
among its leaders, which have already begun,
for the spoils.
That consequently Mr.. Lincoln's adminstra-
ton viii be without real power in the country,
and form merely Q transition administration
during the revolutionary period in politics, be
tween the breaking up Of all the old parties
and the coming In Of the new, just as John
Quincy Adams administration was transition
one between the breaking up Of the old histori-
cal republican party, which ruled up to 1924,
and the democratic, which dominated from
1925
With these facts and truths before us, w
cannot hesitate In saying that II Is best for the
whole country, and best even for the South, Ia
remain In the Union. without secession the
equality of the States can be vindicated, and
the rights OF the South sus aimed; with secession
both South and North enter upon q sea of trou-
bles. whose boundaries no man can perceive,
and no man can cay that the rights Of the South
can be more perfectly sustained out of the
Union than within It. With this general line Of
policy before us we can descend to some OF the
details OF the conflict which are already appa-
rent
First. AZ regards the South. In the events
which ,r,N,otr-d at Charleston and Baltimore
during the months Of May and June last, the
public men Of the South have practical fore
shadowipg Of the course they should now pur.
sue. Had Mr.. Yancey and the members who
seeded with him remained in the Charleston
Convention. nominations satisfactory to the
South would have been made, and there can b.
no doubt that they would have been elected
and the present crisis avoided. This they saw
soon after they had taken their course, and they
tried to remedy their error at Baltimore. Blu
the passions Of men had then become excited
and 1t was too late. So now II I've States Sc

In few weeks the proclamation reached
the Colonies at several ports. Abigail Smith,
the wife of John Adams, was at the time IN
their home near the foot OF Penn Hill,
charged with the sole care Of their little
brood of children; managing their farm
keeping house with frugality, though open
ing her doors TO the houseless, and giving
with good will part of her Scant PARTON
to the poor; seeking work for her own hands,
and ever busily occupied, now at the spin
ningewheel, now making amends for never
having been sent to school by learning
French, though with the aid of books alone.
Since the departure Of her husband for Con-
gress, the arrow of death sped near by
her by day, and the pestilence that walks in
darkness had entered her humble mansion;
she herself was still weak after a violent ill
ness her house was an hospital in every part
and such was the distress of the neighbor-
hood, she could hardly find well person to
assist in looking after the sick Her youngest
son had been rescued from the grave by her
nursing; her own mother had beeR taken
away, and, after the austere manner of her
forefathers, buried without prayer
Woe followed woe, and one affiction trod
on the heels of another. Winter was hurry
ing on; during the day family affairs took off
her attention, but her long evenings, broken
by the sound Of the storm on the ocean, or
the enemy's artillery at Boston, were lone
some and melancholy. Ever in the silent
night eliminating on the love and tenderness
of her departed parent, she needed the con-
ISOLATION Of her husbands presence but when,
in November, she read the Kings proclama-
ton, she willingly gave up her nearest frieni
exclusively TO his perilous duties, and sent
him her cheering message "This intelligence
will make plain path for you, though a
dangerous one; could not join to-day in the
petitions ofo worthy pastor for reconcile
alton between our no longer parent State, but
tyrant State, and these Colonies. Let us sepa-
rate they are unworthy to be our brethren.
Let us renounce them; and, instead of suppli-
cations, as formerly, for their prosperity and
happiness, let us beseech the Almighty to
blast their counsels, and bring to nought all
their devices"
