COnCSSsiOns all Round.

Now that South Carolina in particular.
and the rest of the cotton States in gen
eral, are clamorous for new concessions
and new compromises from the north,
whereby the South may gain by constitu-
tional enactment what the free States
have gained by enterprise, civilization, and
the mighty progress that results from be-
ing iree-let US suggest some few things that
might be conceded on both sides. Tie
North is strong and powerful but tinid and
cowardly; the South is weak ard poor, but
saucy oycrbearing and self Withdrawing
had her own way so long in matters per-
tanning to governmental policy that the
crushing logic Of the last election, and the
census returns, are not calculated to leave
her in u heavenly frame of mind. She is
therefore demanding some new ARRANGE
ment by which she may hold the free
States in check, and asks the repeal of the
Personal Liberty Bills. so called, though
they are not whit more stringent, as to
the matter Of kidnapping, than some of
the laws in some of the Slave States, rela
ting to the same subject. We propose to
''set up'with the Union long enough to
offer the following concessions to be adop-
ted all round. Thus:
Let Congress repeal or modify the Flu
gitive slave act.
Let the Northern States repeal all Per-
sonal Liberty Bills except such as relate
to Kidnapping.
Let Wendan Phillips have the sam
freedom OF speech in Charleston that Mr..
Yaneey has in Boston.
Let the South stop robbing the mail: a
crime greater than aiding or abetting
runaway negro.
Let them stop hanging Methodist Min
listers.
Let the men of the South stop raising
the mad dog cry of Abolitionist against all
who disagree with them, and quit tarring
and feathering those who refuse to vote
their ticket.
Let freedom of speech and of the press
obtain to such a degree in the South, that
men in that section can take such news
papers as they please. without being re
sponsible to vigilance committee for their
private opinions
Let the sccessionists and all who coun-
sci treason against the general govern
ment, be caught and incarcerated IN the
United States Custom Houses, even as
Sherman NJ. Booth is now imprisoned 10
Milwaukee for a supposititous infraction of
a law of Congress.
We respectfully submit these PROPOSE
lions to Corwin' select Committee of 33,
which is busy soldering up the cracks in
the Union.-Home League.

WHO Speaks for Them L?

In this Republic, several States of the
Confederacy, in the exercise of indeper-
dent State authorities, have been doing
what Thomas Jefferson denominatcd the
most extraordinary and wonderful incon-
sistency and injustice, relating to millions
of men, women and children. This enor-
nifty, they wish extended over the vast
Territories of the nation, and because the
people, in the late election have decided
against this policy, those outrageous wrong
doors have made a tremendous buster,
thereby hoping to succeed in reversing
the righteous decision of the people. This
has called forth discussion in all parts of
the country, from the halls of Congress,
the executive chair, and all classes of pub
lie journals, down to the humblest citizens.
We have been somewhat oonyersant with
what las trapspired, and yet, in all that
has been written and spoken, we do not
recollect to have seen or heard single
word in behalf of our enslaved fellow beings.
Admitting that they are men; defending
tie doctrine that they are, elementally and
essentially, part Of our common humanity !;
still not an opponent Of slavery has spoken
out in behalf of these injured fellow be-
ings. Washington, Patrick Henry, Thorn
as Jefferson, &c, &c, &C., did it often in
their day; but "evil communications have
so far corrupted good manners" that, scarce
any where do we have any man so true
and upright towards our universal humani-
ty, (Which is infinitely above all municipal
constitutions or laws), as TO speak Of en-
shaved men and those persons over whom
the curse is sought to be extended, as 9TH
er human beings are uniformly spoken of.
What spectacle for history to present
to coming generations, a nation calling it.
self Christian, and Boosting and priding
of republican Institutions and equal rights,
so long familiar with oppression that pub
lie opinion has become so perverted and the
conscience even of the churches so harden
cd and corrupt. that cases of members
speaking in behalf of millions of their fell
low beings in bondage, whom they are re-
quircd to remember, as bound with
thcm,' in any other manner than as if they
were brates, are more rare than "angePs
visits. Could Christianity and patriotism
get seat In Congress. or in our pulpits
ard the public journals of the day, like
the voice of many waters carrying convic-
ton and terror to the hearts of oppressors.
would be heard bold and feeling recogni-
ton of tie rights of the most injured
amongst men. Never was there a time
when it was more appropriate and import
ant that there should be such words spo-
ken, and that toe, directly in the ears OF
the men who are attempting to brighten
out of the people what of the love Of Lib
erty there yet remains. There is pow
erful effort being now made, to re-cast the
Constitution and Federal Government after
the infamous pattern furnished by despots
But there should not be allowed a single
element or symbol Of the accurst monster
rate.

Thurlow Weeds Compromise.

The proposition made by Thurlow Weed,
the veteran editor of the Albany Journal,
that the Republican party shall retreat
from the position it occupied in the last
campaign on the Slavery question, and as
sumo al entire new ground, fluids but little
favor at the hands of our party presses
throughout the country Mr. Weed is one
of the best politicians we have, whose age
and experience entitle his opinions to great
weight, and to whom we have always been
accustomed to look for enlightened and
statesmanlike views upon ali quos ions of
national policy not only, but also consis-
tency. We were surprised therefore to
find him ready to surrender the great
principle upon which the late political bat
tie was fought, that the Republican party
is unaltcrably and infexibly opposed to
the further extension of Slavery, and that
1t would not upon any terms, proyocation
or inducement whatever, submit to the
abandonment of that doctrine Mr..
Weeds proposed compromise is virtual
surrender of it, and if adopted, would open
anew the whole question of Slavery in the
Territories and make it nect ssary for the
North to fight over again, in few years
at the farthest, the very question and
principle which the Republican party was
brought into existence to maintain, and
which no man in the country has done more
to give significance and vitality to, than
Mr.. Weed himself. Even his associate in
the editorial management of the Journal
George Dawson, dissents from Mr.. Weed s
proposition for a compromise, in a brief
but pointed article, in which he saws that
he deems it to be his duty to say, that he
can neither advocate nor acquiesce in any
Compromise which involves the surrender
of Free Territory to Slavery. The same
vote which elected Mr. Liucoln affirmed
the inyiolability of Free Soil 1t would be
no more unreasonable, therefore, for the
South to demand Mr., Lineoln's uncond;-
tional abdication on the 4th of March. than
that Republicans shall sanction the extern
sion of Slavery" That is the true doc
trlne and the only one we can advocate if
we would maintain our consistency and po-
litical integrity. 1t undoubtedly is desira-
lie to conciliate the South, but we are not
disposed to do so at every sacrifice of prin-
eiple and honor. If nothing short of this
will satisfy the secessionists aud disunion-
lists. then so far as we are concerned, we
say let them go unpaci6ed and get salts
faction in the best way they can. We would
not be ultra, nor would we deny them
single privilege to which they are entitled
under the Constitution. Under that in
strument, as 1t is, they have managed to
get along pretty well for three-quarterl of
century, and we do not know why they
cannot do as we'll for three-quarters of
sentury to come We have no doubt they |
ian do it very comfortably if they will but |
~ it.

The Treason of Secession.

The Treason of Secession
The following article from the Illinois
Sac Journal, published at Springfield, the
residence Of the President elect, and edit
Ell by his newhew, we have no doubt re-
fleets Mr.. Lincoln's views exactly and may
be taken as an authoritative exposition Of
them. They are sound and patriotic, and
will meet with hearty response from eve
ry lover Of his country throughout the
land. Read them:
IF South Carolina does not obstruct the
collection Of the revenue at her ports nor
violate 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
the United States, in such an emergency,
has plain duty to perform, Buchanan
may shirk it, or the emergency may not
exist during his administration If not,
then the Union will last through his term
Of office. Il the overt act, on the part of
South Carolina, takes place, on or after the
18th Of March, 1861, then the duty of exc
cutting the laws will devolve upon Mr. Lin-
coin.
The laws Of the United States must be
exccuted-the President has 10 discretion
AIRY power on the suhiect-his duty is en-
phatically pronounced in the Constitution.
Mr. Lincoln piU perform that duiy. Dis
union, by armed force, rs treason, and trea-
son must and 1siU he put dorm tall hazards
This Union is not, will not. and cannot be
dissolved until this Government is over
thrown by the traitors who have raised
the 4 sunion flag Can they overthrow it
We think not. They may disturb its
Peace-they may interrupt the course of
It's prosperity-they may cloud its reputa-
ton for stablity-but its tranquility will
be restored, its prosperity will return, and
the stain upon its National character will
be transferred and remain an eternal blot
on the memory Of those who caused the
disorder" Let the secessionists under
stand it,-let the press proclaim it-let it
fly on the wings of the lightning, and fall
like thunderbolt among those now plot
ting treason in Convention, that the Re

Tennessee has been making an able and
forcible anti-secession speech. He denies
the right of any state to secede, and de-
nounces such an act as revolutionary aud
reasonable. His bold and decided posi-
ton is a severe rebuke to the imbccile and
cowardly course of the President. A few
more such speeches from such source,
