THE RESIGNATION OF GEN. CAss.

Gen. CAss yesterday rendered his resignation
Of the Office Of Secretary of State in consequence
Of the determination of the President not to
send the reinforcements essential, in the opin.
ion of all military authorities, to the security
Of Fort Moultrie.
This step on the part Of Gen. Cass, consider
ing his great age and constitutional indecision
Of character, will produce a profound impres-
sion upon the country.
He was not willing to destroy his present
reputation, and mar the name which be will
bear in history, by longer connection with an
Administration which had finally determined
to yield public fort to Qualification, or what is
the same thing, to leave it without adequate
defence.
Gen. Cass first came into the Cabinet upon
the breakup of the first Cabinet of Gen. Jack.
son, upon this very question of notification,
and it is not TO be doubted that his opinions
have always been upon that question, in accord
with those of the old Roman. He has been
overborne in council by the malign influence
which has, so far, kept possession of Mr.. Bu
chanan, and may do so to the end.
If 1fanything could startle Mr.. Buchanan into
perception of the truth, it is this decisive &C.
of man, habitually a courtier, but still a pa
triot, and conservative of his fame, present and
future. The President knows well, that his
late Secretary of State did not resign, except
under pressure which he felt it to be impossi.
BILE to resist. And it is this which may, even
now, produce a reversal of that Executive de-
cision which has produced such widespread
SORROW and indignation.
There is not q moment longer to be lost, un.
less Mr.. Buchanan wishes to go down to pos.
terity with a name linked with that of Bene.
dict Arnold. The abandonment of Fort Moul
trie is not whit less criminal, than the at
tempted betrayal Of West Point and it will be
worse in this, that the revolutionary treason
was that of subordinate General, while thu
treason now impending over us is that of th'
constitutional Commander inchief of our ar
mics and navies. We implore the President
to pause before he takes the last fatal and ire
trievable step.

To the People ccthe United States.
A RECOMMENDATION.

Numerous appeals have been made to me by
pious and patriotic associations and citizens.
10 view Of the present distracted and danger
ous coDditon of our country, to recommend
that a day be set apart for HUMILIATION, FAST
ING, and PRAYER, throughout the Union. III
compliance with their request, and my own
sense of duty, designate
Fridgy, The Nh day Of January, 1861,
for this purpose, and recommend that the peo.
plo assemble OH that day, according TO their
several forms Of worship, to keep it as solemn
Fast.
The Union of the States is at the present
moment threatened with alarmi and imme.
diate danger-panic and distress of fesrfu!
character prevail throughsu the land--our la.
boring population are without employment, and
consequently deprived of the means of earning
their bread-iudeed, hope seems to have de-
serted the minds of men. All classes are in a
state of confusion and dismay and the wsest.
counsels of our best and purest men are wholly
disregarded. ..... ...' .,a... .
In this, the hour Of our calamity and peril,
to whom shall we resort for relief but to the
God Of our Fsthers2 His Omnipotent arm
only can save us from the awful effects of our
own crimes and follies-our own ingratitude
and guilt towards our Heavenly Father.
Let us, then, with deep contrition and peni.
tent sorrow, unite in humbling ourselves before
the Most High, in confessing our individual
and national sins, and in acknowledging the
justice OF our punishment. Let US implore
Him TO remove from our hearts that false pride
of opinion which would impel us to persevere
in wrong for the sake Of consistency, rather
than yield a just submission to the unforeseen
exigencies by which we are now surrounded.
Let us, with deep reverence, beseech Him to
restore the friendship and good will which pre-.
vailed, in former days, among the people of the
several States and, above ALL to save us from
the horrors OF civil war and :. blood guiltiness."
Let our tervent prayers ascend to His Throne,
that He would not desert us in this hour of tx
treme peril, but remember US as He did our
fathers in the darkest days of the Revolution,
aud preserve our Constitution and our Union
the work of their hands, for ages yet to come
An Omnipotent Providence may overrue ex
listing evils for permanent good. He can make
the wrath of man to praise Him, and the re.
mainder of wrath he can restrain. Let me in.
woke every individual, in whatever sphere Of
life he may be placed, to feel personal respon-
sibility to God and his country for keeping this
day holy, and for contributing all in his power
to remove our actual and impending calami-
ties. JAMES BUCHANAN.
Washington, Dec. IA, 1860.
