The way the south arc deceived
rEr,,,, ,l,,. i,.l..i., 49,. n, L -,


Gov. Brown of Georgia ought to have
some little idea Of the real purposes and
doctrines of the Republican party. Onsome
questions he manifestsa considrrabl de-
gree of>good sense. Occupying so prom
inent a position as he does, one would sup
pose that he would have taken some pains
to ascertain what are the sentiments of
the party whichshas just elected Pres-
dent. But in letter, which has just been
published, he says that the Republican
party "has constantly denied and still de-
mics our equality in the Union and our
right to hold our slaves ms property, aud
avows it's purpose to take from us our
property, so soon as it has the power"
If Governor disseminatcs such misrcp-
resentitions as that, tits not surprising that
the mass of the people, who have no means
of learning what is the real sentiment of
thenorth, should he in error We observe
that the Sar"nndh Republican corrccts the
mistake of the Governor But doubtless
his words have been credulously received
by lnrge portion of the people of Geor-
gia. If they present his honest belief,
they do no credit to his intelligence. If
they do not, they do no credit to his hon
esty. Hc owes it to his position to be
more cautious in his statements.

The seeessl6n OF south Carolina.
From the Baltimore Patriot. 4

History will pronounce this act of the
Convention, crime against liberty
Even. if it is arrested in its destructive
course, by the strong arm of the Federal
power, or by the returning sanity of its
authors, OF their constituents, it will stand
as an unparalleled crime i'll the history of
human government, because it records a
deedgof wilful political desperation, for
the commission of which, they can never
appeal, with any success, to the approval
of the common Judgment and conscience
of mankind, as our fathers did, whcu thew
dissolved the connection of the Colonies
with the Mother Country. 1t is the con-
summation of the "work of forty years."
as openly declared hy Mr.. Gregg, mem-
Der of the Convention. 1t will lie the
work OF forty thousand years, to wipe ont
all remembrance of it from the page of
human history. Nay, it will never be for
gotten, as long as the world lasts. 1t is a
crime of folly, tliat will go down to the
condemnation of the ages to come, simply
because it is the work of passion, of am
bition, of the determination of IL petty
aristocracy to rule in hell rather than
serve in heaven, Not 81 single grievance
has this seccdaut State hut what can be
redressed in the Union Not a single Just
complaint can she bring up, ths4 will not,
prove her ruin out of the Union

\ sharp Word from Kentucky.

Tie following is nn extract of business
letter received in Boston from prominent
manufacturer in the eastern. part of Ken
lucky, who voted for Bell and Everett:
"Wns ever such mad and wicked folly
before known as this secession? Had
South Carolina set FIRE to~every building
within her borders the evil and misery
would have been nothing compared t.
what she is now invoking. Aud yet there
is no staying her uplifted arm; the demon
evil has seized her and all her people are
possessed. A practical test, however, wilt
speedily open the eyes of her deluded
people, before the wheels of the govern
ment can be set in motion, the burdens
will become so terrible that the reaction
will overthrow the traitorous Williams who
have misled aud plunged her into ruin.

The people here begin to late Buchanan.
The secession leaders declare no more
soldiers shall be sent to the forts. cap
tain of n schooner landed some supplies
there few days since, and was terribly
abused for it. The terrorlsts told him it
would not be safe for any vessel to attempt
it in future. They would starvc out the
garrison.
Trescott's mission to South Carolina
merely amounted to this: He took back
word that South Carolina would not at
tack the fort before her ambassadors went
to Washington TO negotiate. The negoti-
ations of course, will be fruitless; as she
does not propose to offer anything in cx-
change for the forts and government prop
erty in the State but her Interest in the
public lands. The moment their demand
isrcjected, or they are denied an audience MS
commissioners, if they should be, the people
will attack the forts,
Ladders have already hoen prepared for
the attack, and arrangements have been
made to secure prompt information of any
movement of troops for the relief of the
federal troops

leader on secession. The Journal being
edited by nephew of tile President elect

yhe most striking passage of it says: "If
South Carolina does not obstruct the col
lection of revenue at her ports, nor vio-
late any other federal law, there will be no
trouble, and she will not be out of the
Union. If she violates the laws, then
comes the tug of war. The President of

has plain duty to perform. Buchanan
may shilk it, or the emergency may not ex-
st during his administration. lfnot, then
the Union will last through his term of Of

ter the Fourth OF March, 1861, then the
duty of executing the law will devolye
upon Mr.. Lincoln. The laws of the Unit
cd States must be executcd-thc President
has no discretionary power on the subject.
His duty is emphatically pronounced in
the Constitution. Mr. Lincoln will per-
form that duty. Disunion by armed force
is treason, aud treason must and will be
put down at all hazards"
