No CHANCE FOR RECONCILIATION

In connection With the following despatch,
which has been sent tn he New Orleans

which occurred in the L. S. Senate IN Mon
day last. Preston King Of New York, the col
league and credjutor of Seward, and others in
the interest Of Lincoln, gave utterance to the
most insulting and defiant language towards
the Sor6l, threatening coercion &t:
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.--It is now perfectly
apparent that no arrangement can be made
that will be satisfactory to the South. A dis.
patch recommending inHuedAte action by the

It declares that there is no longer any prospect
of reconciliation here. Thus dispatch is signed

Rev. DR.. PhillipP Nicely Speaks for the
Methodist Church South.

A meeting at Summerfield, Ala, was ad,
dressed by this eminent and useful Minister
of the Methodist denomination, in behalf Of
the movement for Southern safety and indie
pendence, with power of logic and an
earnestness and impressiveness Of appeal,
which carried conviction to every heart.
A correspondent of tho Selma Reporter,
gives this sketch of his address, and of its
effect
Rev. P. P. Neeley, d. D., was then called
out. Like pnye- hearted Southern patriot he
responded, and for more than an hour he held
the entire audience completely spell-bound
Oh that every Union saving man South Of
Mason and DixSon's line could have listened
as the speaker recounted the wrongs which
for 30 years the North, with impunity, has
heaped upon the South--that while we have
done them no harm, but on the contrary, have
been their life and prosperity-they have
continued to add injury to insult and now
that all offices are in their hands, they will
make good their threats by completing the
black catalogue of their shameful crimes in
the abolition of slavery wherever the arm Of
the Federal Government can be welded But
| will not attempt description Of that adj
dress, the ablest, most powerful, and most
eloquent to which have ever listened. Those
who have heard Doctor Medley on some great
OCCASION when discoursing under the mighty
inspiration Of the Holy One, can have some
appreciation of the address on Saturday,
where his soul seemed to be stirred by
commingling of the fires Of religion and pat
riotism, until he stood as the embodiment Of
eloqdence itself.
The large meeting before when this address
was delivered, adopted toiM but one dissenting
voice, the following resolution;
Resolred, That Alabama will never consent |
to be component part Of any Coufederaey |
that will abide Black Republican Admins
tration.

Among the farhedial schemes proposed BY
political doctors, and nostrums recommended
by sympathizng friends Of the Federal < Mon,
a prominent one is the repeal of the Personal
Liberty multiplying acts found on the statute
books of nearly all the non-slaveholding States.
The idea is held out by many, that nothing
but the repeal of these acts, is wanting to re-
store tranquility to the country, and fully sat
isfy the South The exclusion of the people
of sixteen States fromitlR, common territory,
and the long series of assaults, injuries and
nutrages OF abolition appear to fe quito ig-
horned, and it would seem that the South has
no ground OF complaint, save and except thsEe
nullii5 ls.ffg acts. But even as to these acts il
tsey shoGld be now all repealed, could the fu-
gGiye slave act be any better enforced, when
the entire &orth is arra5ed in oRerG and mex
orable antagonism to it {. tits not the ,tllli-
flying acts, that prevent its eflforcement,f but
the public opinion ofalhe North Untit4his
pnblSs opinion is reformed, what security ian
BE found in the proposed repeal Why rsaeaI
laws among people. who appeal to 'higEer
CLAW ?" The repeal, if it were possible, in
stead ofproving substantial guarantee might
serve only as a perfdious armistice to WILL the
South into adangarous security. The aepeal
1if it had been made voluntarily might indeed
have tended to allay sectional strife ;but L
what motive could it be now attributed, SHOULD
it take place, but to policy, self-ihterest6 and
apprehension ofimpending dissolution Yer

the result is not encouraging to the friel.ls o

Lincoln on 'the Color of the SKIM

A few years ago, the free negroes Of Gin
slnnati presented Gov. Chase with silver
pitcher in token of their affection for him.
The interesting ceremony took place in Cln.
cinnati, and Abraham Lincoln was there Be.
ing called upon for a speech he addressed his
'colored brethren as follows:
81 embrace with pleasure this opportunity
of declaring my disapprobation of that clause
of the Constitution which denies to portion
Of the colored population the right Of suffrage.
"True democracy makes no inquiry aboutt
the color of the skin, or the place of nativity,
or any other circumstance or condition. re-
gard, therefore, the exclusion Of the colored
people IS body, from the elective franchise
as contrary to the spirit Of democracy and of
our Constitution"
Here the President elect Of the Northern
States takes ground in favor Of negro suffrage,
and advocates the impious and infamous doc
trine that there should be no distinction on
account of "the color of the skin" This is
the doctrine upon which he is elected to the
Presidency! What sOlite man is base enough
to live under the rule Of such fanatic

East Mississippi All Going One Way.

In the Counties Of that portion of the STATE
renowned as EAST Mississippi, the people are
all voting for Southern Rights. Throughout
