Treason in Detail,

The secessonsts do not appear to be quite
clear as to the actual proceeding to be had in
the act OF cutting loose from the Union. Gov.
Gist, in his message just sent to the South
Carolina Legislature, discusses the subject in
its Details and speaks of the possible and pro-
bable extents as they may be expected actually
to occur. The postal system is 10 be cut loose
when the Postmaster Of Charleston resigns,
which is TO be at that indefinable hour when
the State effects absolute secession. 1t is then
expected that all other postmasters will also
resign, and that the State can institute postal
service for itself. In the interim of getting
this to work, Adams Express s to be employed,
Gov. Gist says. He hopes arrangements will
be made by the Federal authorities to 90 on for
little time as before, however. until South
Carolina has got her cotton confederacy FORM
ed, but, il this is impossible, then they will try
the express.
1t may be we'll here to remind Gov. Gist that
Adams Express is quite accessible out of s.
Carolina, and can be very promptly punished
for an nfracton Of the laws. 1t is not likely
that this enterprising firm will leave the Uni
ted States to engage in the letter carriage of 1
State whose service costs hundred thousand
dollars a year more than it cones 10, and i
would be very soon made apparent that eveI
Adams Express could not do business in boil
nations against the laws. And as 10 cutting ol
exchange with the United States mail service
the amazing folly of the whole idea of seces
sion is sufficiently uppareRt in this one item
Il would be a blow which business in tha
Stale would sink under.

Secession Looked at Financially-The
Condition of the Secession States.

Dr. Franklin used to say of certain persons,
they "pald dear for the whistle" A great
many persons, and some nations, do this. The
States proposing (accordlng to the very accu-
rate telegraph reporters) 10 secsde, are South
Carolina, Florida, Alabama and Georgia. They
have, no doubt, right TO pay us dear for their
whistle as they please, aud some OF their pre-
found economists have ciphered out that they
will make money by the operation. 1t they
really believe this, and are also in as great
passion as the telegraph represents, lhey may
attempt secession. As mere lockers on, We
are curious to know what will become of il
especially, whether they will be more prosper
ously, financially than they were before We
take the census of 1850 as our guide. The foul
States in question have increased very HttEt

that may yet serve some romancer as an Illus

When Col. J. Buchanan Cross was arrested
for forgery; he had octoroon called Bob. Cross
was in trouble. To raise means TO defend his
MASTER Bod went voluntarily TO the South,
where he mortgaged himself, sending the pro-
ceCds to Cross while in prison in Philadelphia.
AS everybody knows, Cross was convicted, and
is now IN the Eastern PenItentlary. Bob hud
followed Cross in all his journeylOgs over the
continent of Europe, and while in Paris was
furnished by Mr.. Mason. Minister, with pas
port Mr.. Mason afterwards learned that Bob
was an CctorOOn, an endeavOred 10 reclaim the

but where she has gone has not yet been asCer'

AN Incident or THE CHINEsE WAR.-A
letter from China says:
when the French troops entered the forti-
fed village of Pohtang-IIo they found that it's
inhabitants and defenders had evacuated it,
In several houses were found large earthen-
ware jars, nearly five feet high, placed in out
OF the-way corners, and filled with water.-
seen a human foot, and on the jars being bro
ken, the dead body of woman was found in
each From the appearance OF the bodies, the
women could only have be en- dead short time,
and death must have been caused by being
plunged headtoremost into the water. 1t was
afterwards ascerta aimed that the inhabitants OF
the town had killed in this strange way such of
their women as were not strong enough to sup
port a long march, and might in consequence
have fallen into the hands of the conquerors.
Altogether about one hundred dead bodiee
were found"
The same letter says:
"When the French, after a severe struggle
had possessed themselves of the large Forl,
they found in IL corner a mandarin surrounded
by detachment of Chinese infantry. He wa,
greatly excited, and endea vored, both by Ian
gauge and gestures, to induce his soldiers t
return to the combat. Not succeeding, he de
clared he would not survive such disgrace, an,
then he cut his throat with his sword. He hac
