from the Southern States. a gentleman
who had talked with him on this seccs-

rcscnts to ~ that he Is cuutous la his ex-
prcsdons, hut unqoestionubly firm IN his
belief that the laws should be upheld
He docs not il he is correctly reported,

not conceive how, after his policy is de-

We are advised that ho has not decided

We take u, however, that the wisc.aercs
who labor under tho delusion that Lin
coin " Douglas, aud his udyiaers must be-
those whom Dou Las would have called
to bis aid, will be disappointed when the
names OF The Secretaries are announced
The point Of difficulty In sclcctnr Is to
find men IN the South upon whom the
honor Of Sccrct0ryship may be Eainly
conferred, and who urO at the same time

character aud strength to the new Nd

not doubt that the difficulty will be sur.
The to.bo formed Onion party
Of the South will afford abundant mater.

sources more reputable and credible.
Men who knew Abraham Lincoln would
not spend their time in indtinp such

what missiycs Of another sort contain. .
