that he who was first to detect and expose the
Southern bias of the Democratic party, and
whose principles thea laid down have become
the foundation Of the Republican party, aud
in the short space of ten years have won the
support of a majority of the States of the
Unon-shall be dnly awarded the honor ne
has so richly won. That the North is justly
entitled to the seat, and deserving Of 1t, too,
is beyond a reasonable questioning and who
shall the North or West present more fit for
Or deserving of the honor than, David Wimot?
There will be objections to him, to be sure, as
there will also be to any candidate that may
be presented ; but those objections are not
sufficiently important to prevent the recogn-
tiou of the many and predominating qualities
in his favor He will not permit his own pc
culiar views of the questions of the day to
stand in the way of the States well-known in
terests neither will he lend his influence to
the benefit Of the few at the sacrifice of the
welfare of the majority. Every true Repub-
can. in any section of the State or Union will
rejoice when so true a champion of their prin
cipes as David Wilmot shall take his seat in
the Senate of the United States.

OLD ABE'S POSITION !

We notice, occasionally, that some wiSeacre
is suggesting that LINCOLN shall issue a " man
ifesto." We don't clearly understand what it
should be for, but the general idea is that the
South needs quetng. We suppose they want
an assurance that the Northern hordeS will
not over-run the cotton and rice and sugar
plantations Of the "sunny south free the
blacks, murder the whites, and devastate the
country generally. Or it may be. that Old
Abe's personal appearance has been so abom-
iuably caricaturcd, that the Southern people,
who were so awfuly frightened in John
Browns time, by COW, fancy him terrible
ogre, whose appearance in their midst wonld
SO frighten the children and women, as to be
followed by the direst and most disagreeabe
consequences.
Laying Dadinage aside, we have no fear
that so sensible a man as our prospective Pres
ident has proved himself to be, will do any
such silly thing. 1t is not necessary either to
quiet the rantaDkerous Bobadils South, nor
to inform the world as to the principles by
which the next National Administration will
be guided. The Chicago platform is so full
and plain that " he who runs may read" That
platform was not made to deceive any body,
but to elucidate the policy and purposes of
the Republican party. 1t cannot be constru-
ed oppostely. 1t tells the world what the
Republican party means to do, when it has
the power.
We take it, the era of white men is to be
lnaugurated on the Fourth of March next
The Republican party will demonstrate that
there are other interests besides those of
Slavery, of some Importance. There will be
no necessity for corrupting members of Con-
gress and presses and politicians to uphold
the institution of human bondage the treas.
ury of the nation will not be drained to for
ward the schemes and advance the pecuniary
interests Cf the slave capitalists the slave
trade will not be re-opened but more vigiDantly
suppressed and plans and schemes for the
extension, perpetuation and strengthening of
Slavery be the sole idea pervading all branch
es of the Government. The political nigger
will be banished from the White House, from
Congress, from the Treasury, from the Post
Office, and from all the other branches and
departments of the Government. 1t will not
be necessary to believe in the divine origin
and gospel dspensation of the peculiar in

TIE ELECTION-We have but little to add
to the glorious news given asst week, nor shall
we have until the official vote is known.
Lincoln gets every Northern State (CaIfor.
MIA and Oregon not heard from except New
Jersey. 1t is supposed that portion of the
Fusion ticket voted by the straight Dougias
men, may be elected which will divide the
electoral vote of the State between the pres.
Dental candidates.
If DoUGIAs does not get the solitary vOs
claimed for him in New Jersey, he will have
depend npon California to carry his name in.
to the electoral college, as Missouri, which
was supposed to be certain for him, goes for
Bell.

THE SECESSION MOVEMENT

We have read number of the Especial
dispatches from various points 10 the SoDtb
which appeared in Saturdays New York pa.
pers, and we are Of the opinion that the dis.
union movement has already reached its cpI.
miEating point, and that a ealmer condition
Of the Southern mind is gradually being at
tanned. Even in South Carolina, ACCORDING
to our latest accounts, the people are not 81
ready for extreme measures as we we're led 70
infer from the first intelligence following the
knowledge of the success Of Mr. LINcorx
and of course unless South Carolina takes tho
lead, it is not probable that any moyeneu.
towards disruption of the Union will be
made in any other quarter. A dispatch from
Columbia received on Friday, announces tba.
bill has passed the Senate providing for the
calling Of a State Convention to consider n.
subject of secession but fixing the Sth of Jan.
uary as the day for electing delegates thereto.
and the 10th of January for the assembling
of the Convention The House may insist
upon an earlier day. but there is evidently
disposition not to be too precpiate From
Washington we learn that the President aud
Cabinet held meeting on Friday at which
the condition of affairs in the South was dis.
cuSscd. President Buchanan, according to
dispatch in the New York Times is confident
that South Carolina will leave the Confeder.
acy, but not during his term Of o6fc'. Should
the issue, however, be preciptated before that
time, he believes it to be madness to attemnt
coercion, as that would have the effect to dis.
rupt the whole Union. 1t is understood
that Secretary Cobb alone excused the ex-
trcme position Of the Palmetto State. The
hope was generally entertained that, even in
case he saw fit to secede, the cool Judgment
of the best men of the South would prevent
any such action on the part of other States
4 t any rate, should South Carolina annul the
resolutions by which she adhered to the Fed
eraI Constitution sds 1cW be lei alOw Jv n,

rumor of the resignation OF the Collector Of
