Stock market here today and the general complexion of
fnanGia affairs favorable than it has been for
days past Money still very tight and rates for
loans fabuously high but the necessities Of borrowers

that the demand for money among parties engaged in

any time been excessive and had ii not been for the
OF the stock operators there would have been
panic worth mentioning RumOrs and predictions in
relation suspension of specie payment by the banks
have been quite current here within the past day two
but there is far probability of any such
event occurring and certainly with Eastern exchange in
favor it Is and specie coming here instead of eav

together unnecessary and unustfabIe From all

MIDDLE REPUBLIc-The Memphis (Tenn) En-
quareT says that If secession is to be free thing
place may. be found for three Republics with as
much propriety as for two. If the North divides
from On the boundary of the Potomac and Ohio
rivers, and the South on the southern boundary of
North Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas our CEN
trail and third republic might contain the interven-
ing States of Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky,
Tennessee, and Arkansas, thus being very respect
able in point of territory and certainly in popula-
tion and wealth. We in the centre might differ
with both sides on the tariff and some other points,
sufficiently at least to make show of 'irrepres.
sble,' and thereupon declare that we could not
live and flourish together. Moreover, we have a
splendid list of talented gentlemen within our bor-
ders who might be induced to serve in the way
of President Central United Senators, Cabinet Off
GERS, &C., and the dignity of our nationality would
not, under this arrangement, have to be irittered
away among many incumbents, and it would
therefore be more distinctive and gratifying"

our present purpose. What is wanted, then, in
order TO heal the alienation at the South and res
tore the friendly relations formerly existing be-
tween the two sections is, to persuade the North to
JupL the dipulatons of the Constitution And this is
to be effected, not by appeals to the Souh but to the
North. III any influence be exerted to induce
the governments and people of the Northern States
to repeal their unconstitutional laws and to place
themselves in an attitude of friendship instead of
hostility to the South, that will present an easy
solution OF the present difficulties. But if on the
other hand, the misconstruction of motives and
acts, and generally the vilifcaton of the South,
through thousand pulpits and presses, shall be
continued, and Ii unriendly and unconstitutional
legislation at the North is to take the place of that
broherly feeling and. action which onght to eTist
towards their fellOw-citizens of the South il re-
quires no prophets ken to foresee that we shall
soon cease to be a united people. Neither family
nor a nation can long live together in continual
strife The discomfort and wretchedness of the con-
dition will lead them to separate.
ITEMS FROM wAsHINGToM
We take the following from the Washington cor
respondence of the Philadelphia Press
Senator Hunter, of Virginia, ispreparing strong
appeal against any resistance to Lincolns election,
until he shall commit the overt act.
Wlthin two days past, Governor Letcher has an
nouncea his determination to stand by the celebrat
ed platform at all hazards viz: "Non-intervention
by Congress with slavery in State or Territory, or
in the District of Columbia"
Late news from Alabama indicates that the con-
test against the Disunonists in that State will be
terrific. Mr.. Senator Clay is in ill health, and
Mr.. Yancey By no means popular on account of
his conservative declarations in New York and

Commerce:
The first thing to be done, if we would cure a
disease, is to remove the exciting cause. The North
has broken faith; has violated its compacts and
persists in doing so, after repeated remonstrances
A few days ago we presented a summary view of
the legislation of sundry Northern States on the
subject of fugitive slaves. Instead of surrendering
them to their masters as required by the Constitu-
tion, numerous States impose heavy fines and i'm
prisonment upon any of their citizens who assist in
surrenderng such persons; and not only so, but de-
cree similar penalties against masters who come
within their limits to reclaim fugitiVes. A more
palpable and fragrant violation of the Constitution
could not be devised. The provision is an impor-
tant one to the South; so much so that without it
the Union could not have been formed
Then again, Northern thieves steal great num-
bers of slaves in the border slave States and either
harbor them at the North or send them off to Can
ada. And, although this fact is notorious, and
gloried IN, not government at the North inter-
poses for the protection of the rights of the masters
and no public sentiment protects them but, on the
other hand. the thievery is winked at, to use
mild expression, both by governments and by peo-
pie. There are yet other causes of complaint on
the part of the South, but the above will suffice for
