The Popular Vote for President,

The New York Herald estimates the popular vote
for President as follows: Lincons vote IN the free
States, 100000; IN the slave States, 50,000-ma-
king in all 100000 votes Opposition vote, or
the vote for Breckinrdge Bell and Douglas, in the
free States 100000; in the slave States, 100000
making 2,65dOoO, showing Lincoln to be in a mi
nority of 100000 in the total vote of 4,5O0, ,00O-
According to this estimate the free States have cast
$4,000 more votes against Lincoln than the slave
States Of the votes cast in the free States
1000. 900 were cast by conservative men who are
disposed to do the South justice and to protect her
in her Constitutional rights. These conservatives
are to be found in every neighborhood in the free
States. They the friends and allies of the South,
and they will rally hereafter with the South as on
former occasions, in the good work Of preserving the
government from abolition tendencies. 1t is, there
fore, not all gloom in the Northern sky The world
contains no ruer patriots than the antiLincoln men
of the non-slaveholdng States Nor are they likely
to abandon the South Their hostility to black
Republicanism is intense. They detest it because
they know it to be dangerous to the Union as it is
troublesome to them. They could not unite with it
without doing violence to their own feelings and
judgments as citizens and as party men.

MI1LEDGEvI1LE, Nov. 10, 1SGO.-Resolutions that
the election OF Senator be moved to Monday, 18th,
and other days were proposed.
Mr.. Harris, of Worth, favored the earliest time,
it was we'll known who Georgia preferred, and when
elected he would instantly resign if the interests Of
Georgia and the South required it.
Mr. Oliver, of Heard favored the earliest day, OBJ
jecting to keeping candidates here on expense.
Mr.. Jones, of Newton, urged the greatest delay.
He regarded the present as time for deliberaton,
and they needed all the light that could be obtained
before action. A few weeks might develope impor-
tant matters, which ought to be known before the
election.
Mr. Spalding, of Mcintosh favored the postpone
ment two weeks He didn't believe in endorsing so
early Lincoln's election. There were measures
important to the Convention Retaliatory lcgisla-
ton claimed precedence over the election of sena-
tor.
Mr. Seward, of Thomas, favored the postponement.
He was opposed to doing anything so early to indi-
cate that Georgia intended to submit to Lincoln's
election.
Mr.. Harris, of Worth, inquired whether Mr.. Sc
ward favored secession If Georgia so decided in Con.
vention. lie thought Georgia would not be sustain
ed by other Southern States by thus indicating her
willingness to submit to Lincclns election He con-
sdered the safety of the South to act unit.
Mr. Lawton, of Chatham, favored the utmost de-
lay of the election of Senator There no necess
ity speedy action, Georgia would be represented
in the Senate till the 4th of March. He agreed
with Mr.. Seward that so speedy indication to sub
init to the election of Lincoln would place Georgia
in antagonism with her sister States, as the news
would be speedily sent over the country that Geor-
gia acquiesced in the election of Lincoln.
Mr.. Spaulding moved that the resolution lie on
the table at present. Adopted.
bill was introduced heavily taxing manufac-
turcd articles from Massachusetts,, Connecticut, New

~ In recent debate in the Legislature of
South-C Carolina Mr. Mullins of Marion said:


"South Carolina had tried cooperation, but had
exhausted that policy. The State of Virginia had
discredited the cause which our Commissioner went
there 70 advocate, although she treated him person
ally with respect, but she had much as said there
were no indignities which could drive her to take
the leadership for Southern rights. If we wait for
cooperation slavery and States rights would be
abandoned, sovereignty and the cause of Southern
rights lost forever, and we would be subjected to
dominion, the parallel to which was that of the poor
Indian under the British East India Company
When they had pledged themselves to take the
State out of the Union and placed tupon the record
then he was willing to send Commissioner to Geor
ga any other Southern State to announce our de-
termination, and to submit the question whether
they would Join us or not. We have it from high
authority that the representative of one of the I'm
peral Powers of Europe, in view of the prospective
separation of one or more of the Southern States
from the present confederacy, has made such propo-
son in advance for the establishment of these re-
latons between it and and the government about to
be established in this State as will future
supply Of cotton for that power, which their grow
ingaSants for that article will require. This infor
nation is perfectly authentic"
The idea of the proud, high-minded, end intelli-
gent people of the saveholding States being reduced,
in any event. to the condition of the "poor Indian
under the British East Indian Company" is simply
ridiculous. Mr.. Mullins paints with broom of the
toughest and largest sort. His colors are those of
blood and despair. His glorious and gallant old
State is still what she was. She has submitted to
no indgnites, is she likely to submit to any
Secession may nave no better future than acquies-
cense in the administration of Lincoln. So far as
the "Imperal Powers of Europe" are concerned, it
may be well to bear in mind that they have no right
to treat with seeding State Just now war be-
tween the United States and some of these "Impe-
rial Powers" would give new life to the Union; and
it may be that war will result from the negotiations
said to be going on between certain European Pow
ers and certain cotton States.

seen here to equal the enthusiasm Of the resistance
meeting held here last night. The speeches of Gov.
Moore, Judge Pettus, Judge Clanton, Col. Yancey.

firm the principle of separate State action, but
press willingness to consult with the other South

The people are unit for secession and Alabama
will certainly dissolve her connection with the Fed

In the meantime it is vain to disguise the fact
that the commerce of the South, and all parties con-
1ected in trade with the South, stands in position
Of great danger. A panic is in full blast in the
Southern cites-a panic without substantial basis,
but none the less formidable on that account;
panc which, if it be not allayed, will destroy one
half the mercantile houses and more thar half the
tanks in the Southern States before the winter is
u, and create great deal of trouble in the North
|so. At Charleston business of all kinds is sus-
|y1ied; and while the mercantile men appear to be
|grossed with considerations Of flags and cockades,
ihll has been introduced into the Legislature to
sIthOrize the banks to suspend specie payments,

REUSE to negotiate the usual sixty day bills against

Sew York above IT per cent discount. The alarm
thus generated spreads rapidly. Agents of North
sn houses, though not infected with the prevailing
Fidemic, dare not buy bills as usual, not knowing
Thon the panic may destroy. New York banking
hses disrustful of the pending agitations, decline
70 buy at all for the present Planters are unable
70 send their cotton to market, or, when they have
tnt it to market, cannot get the money for it
Merchants owing money to the North cannot pay
their debts This is as far as the thing has gone as
yet The next steps in the ordinary of events
will be an open quarrel between the merchants and
Planters of the South on one side and the banks on
the other, ending of course, the like quarrel end
ID here in 1857, in general run on the banks, and
their forced suspension. Then would follow gen
eral liquidation, and an enormous depreciation of
TOperty, including State stocks, which are largely
edged as a banking basis throughout the North.
It's safe to say to that if this panic be not aayed,
twill do as much mischief as the total failure of a
elton crop.-N y Herald.

strictly geographical vote, is great calamity If
those who elected him shall attempt to carry out
their peculiar views with reference to the South,
every Southern State will at once unite and make
common cause against common enemy. Let us,
then, Watch and Wait. Mr. Lincoln will either
break up the Union by attempted aggrcssions on
the South he will break up his party by refusing
to attempt aggressions. We say attempted aggres-
sions, for actual aggressions he will never be per-
mitted to make. We are for the Union as long as
it can be maintained with safety and honor. If we
believed that the honor of the South had been touch
