or,jon from the Governor of Illinois and the warrant
Of the Governor Of illinois, and taken away that same
evening lie surrendered quietly and said so little
before leaving that his friends had idea he was un-
Ger arrest After he left in custody Of the Illinois
DEPUTY Sheriff. the facts became known TO certain
extent, and there much talk and excitement about
town.
Friends OF the abducted merchant not entirely nm
derstsndine the business requested us and the other
reporters not to make any publication till the whole
thing shoud be known. We consented not so much In
n spirit OF accommodation as from desire to report
knowingly II we did report anything and because we
had no certified facts as TO the why wherefore of this
extraordinary proceeding: all owing TO the silence of
the merchant himself when he went away
we now hear, that when the Illinois officer and
ms prisoner reached Nicksburg some facts as TO the
arrest had been elegrapbed there, and the gallant
Nicksburgers took ii upon themselves to inquire WHY
an officer from Abe Lineoln's State was dragging
Northvard well-knOwn and responsible merchant Of
New-Orieans. Tie inquiry was followed with sudden
results. The Illinois officer narrowly escaped lynch
ing and was glad enough TO slope without his prisoner
The merchant treated with all kindness and Do
Likeness, and will probably be laughing over the adj
venture with his friends in this city to-day.
There was a civil lawsuit Of some years standing
between our man and a man in Illinois who were
once associated in the steamboat business There were
law suits on both sides hear, in New Orleans
and IN Cairo. Latierly the Cairo man. in his suit OBJ
tanned judgment against the New Orleans man. for some
s3tW or $1,000; and the latter having no seizabls
property IN Illinois, was, upon finding, little
stronger than that Of Indebtedness sent for and
arrested and taken away, as above narrated.

AN OUTRAGEOUS STATE OF THINGS.

From The Chicago Journal Dec TO-
One Of our prominent citizens, gentleman of I'M
doubted veracity, who has Just returned frsm New
Orleans, gives exciting account of the state Of feel
ing that exists toward Northern in that city, and
down in that region generally.
He informs us that on the I'd Of this month a well
known member Of the Chicago Board of Trade, who
was at New-Orlesns business, waited on at his
hotel at midnight by members of the Southern Pro-
lection Society and warned to leave the city imme-
dately or be prepared for the consequences lie
forthwith, for the sake Of his personal safety, pro-
Ceeded to change his quarters to another hotel and left
the city as soon as he could transact his business He
had not said word about Slavery or politics while
in the city, having gone thither on private business,
and the only bis persecutors gave him for their
conduct that they had been informed by somebody
that lie had brother in Missouri who is an active
Republican.
Another gentleman, citizen of Cincinnati, who had
gone down to New-Orleans with half a million of
dollars to buy sugar, was In like manner waited on
and compelled to leave because as they were informed
BY some person, be had who is in some way con-
nccted with The Cincinnati G0sehe-a BLACK Re-
publican" sheet.
Our informant, the gentleman first mentioned, says
be stopped at tie St. Charles Hotel while there and
he was TIE only Northern man whom the Southern
Protection Society allowed to stay there. and the
reason why he spared was the fact OF his having
influential relatives IN the CITY, who are members OF
He SAVE that at the st. Charles Hotel he saw sub
sciption paper, on which $55,OW had already been
pledged to secure the assassination OF Lhnc9n and
Hanlin-and that bots freely offered hat llncoln
would never by President either of the whole Union,
or either section Of it.
He also says that on his way northward through
Mississippi he raw two dead men hanging on tree,
and the people thereabouts being asked what It meant
they replied that they had been talking to niggers;
and ON being asked why they did not bury them, re-
plied. that tley wouidn't bury any id Abolition

The Albany Ca paper relates the following iuci-

"Just then new scene was presented. Our enter

periodicals. Of like kit, and constructing the pile in

The negroes belonging to the estate of Samuel Town

HIS BUDGET OF EXCUSES
From The Warrington Star. Dee. 10, 1860
Mr.. Cobbs budget of excuses for running away
from his charge he found II apparently in
desperate strait will we apprehend, have an effect
opposite to that OF relieving bun from the censure of
public opinion for the part he has displayed in the
work Of destroying the Government for the last month
or two. Our belief is, that had his mind been as
closely occupied in that time with the exigences Of the
branch OF the public business of which he was nom-
iually the guardian, as with the labor of aiding and
abetting the work of the olgarchc immediate seces-
tionists in all the Gulf States the latter would not
have 70 far succeeded "a to beggar the former-the
Treasury of the United States-his charge Our
means Of observation here have satisfied that he has
done more than any other public man in the country
to make the settlement of the Slavery troube within
the Union well nigh an impossbilty, if but by per-
sistently using the influence Of his official position to
strengthen the hands Of those who want disunion in
preference 10 entire security of Southern rights under
the existing Government. His disunion labors have
been at tie bottom of all the imputaions upon the in
tegy of the of the Government here toward its
trust, which the opposition have of late urged vehe
menty to the destruction of the value of property of
all kinds-socks, labor, lands, negroes produce, aud
goods, wares, and merchandise, everywhere.
