A s0UTHERNOR'S OPINION.

A correspondent Of the Charleston Courier who
is n breckenridge man, thus speaks OF the proba-
Die course which Lincoln would pursue if elected
President, which the writer thinks may be the
case because Of the disruption 10 the DEM
ocratic party but by only one third Of the popular
vote.
"Mr. Fillmore became President Of the United
States with a worse record than Lincoln has
on the slavery question, and he went out Of Office
a very popular man at the South. lie signed the
fugitive slave bill, which Lincoln is pledged to en-
force. lie prevented blood-shed and civil war in
New Mexico and Texas, which Taylor was about
to inHict on the country. According to Senator
Berjamin's speech, Lincoln does not stand pledged
to the unconditional repeal Of the fugitive slave
law, or against the admission of any more slave
States into the Union, or to the abolition Of slave
ry in the District of Columbia, or to the prohibi-
ton of the slave trade between the States, or to
the acquisition Of NJ more slave territory.
Judging from tie course pursued by other
Presidents, and shat policy which usually governs
politicians willis: IN power, instead OF doing any
rash, violent, or demonstrations act, to injure or
offend those opposed to him, it is likely Lincoln
will pursue q very cautious, polite, aud wise
course towards the South. it cannot 30 in the
nature of any man elevated to the Presidency to
wish to see the Government broken up under lie
Administration, the Republic dismembered, and
the country plunged INTO a civil war. Very likely
lis great effort will be to acquire popularity in the
Southern States, aud appease their opposition by
u rigid adherence to tue Uousii,utiOn and respect
for the rights Of The South. 1t is not ct all i'm
J nrobolla thar Tho & ,n,b mn Enl mana {. vnrs
under the Administration of Lincoln than they
have under any Democratic administration. 1t
may be tina: Old Abe will 60 out of office quite a
favorite with the Southern people! A! least we
should give him a trial"

pouetAs IN VIRGINIA.

The Democratic nominee is now addressing
meetings in Virginia. AT tho ono held Al Norfolk,
he gave the following explicit answers to the sub
Joined categorical questions.
The first is.-If Abraham Lincoln be elected
President of tho United States, would tho South
ern States be justified in seeding from the
UniOni'
To this l emphatically answer MOI [0reat
applause The election of a man to the Presi-
dency by the American people in conformity with
the Constitution of the United States would not
justify any attempt at dissolving this glorious con.
federucy' tApplOute.l
The second is:-'If they, the Southern States
secede from the Union upon the inauguration Of
Abraham Lincoln, before no commence an over
act against their constitutional rights, will you
adtise or yindicate resistance by force to theil
secession.
l answer empbatically that it Is the duty Of thu
President Of the United States and all others il
authority under him to enforce the laws Of tht
United States passed by Congress, and as tn
Courts expound them, and l, in duty bound b,
my oath aud fidelity to the Constitution, would d.
all in my power to aid the government of tn
United States 10 maintaining the supremacy 0
the laws against all resistance to them, come from
whatever quarter it might. In other words,
think the President Of the United States shout,
treat all attempts to break up the Union by resist
'auce to its laws as old Hickory treated the multi
fiers in 1882. [Applause
We should he glad if Lincoln would do half a
we'll at answering questions as did Douglas q
Norfolk. 1t would be a satisfaction to many ii
his party to have him respond ex Explicitly to a ques
ton somewhat like this: Do you approve Of fOrci
bio resistance to the Fugitive Slave Law of 1856
and if not, would you, if elected President, compel
if need be by the army Of the U. S. the unqualife'

TIE CRY OF ABOLITIONISM WELL ANS
WERED BY A SOUTHERN PAPER.

Mr.. james B. Clay, like other Southern pro-
slavery orators, has a porverse habit of ~stigmatis'
ing Mr.. Lincoln as on Abolitionist, The Louis
willie journal, nlluding to Mr.. Clay's p~enchant for
this kind ofthinG towards his political opponents,
very appropriately says:
IF Mr.. Clay is not old enough to know from
his own recollection. he ought certainly to know
from the testimony Of others, that his father, his
Immortal father, was never u candidate for the
Presidency without being constantly and remorse'
Iessly denounced by the whole Democratic rank
and file as an abolitionist. q thorough and lifelong
abollnonist. The recresnt son ought certainly to
know, tina. the leaders and the masses Of the

upon this infamous charge Of bargain and corrup'
ton, to work his iilustrious fathers destruction.

how he hurls such a charge at others, and mosI

A SOUTHERN coNFAD ABOUT LINCOLN
W. G. BROWNLow.

At one OF our hotels very recently, a Southern
gentleman-one of The largest shareholders of the
South-was quietly vending his way to bed, when
some half dozen of his acquaintances from the
same State demanded his presence While they
counselled upon the necessity OF taking immediate
measures for organizing a Southern Confsderacy
upon the Election of Lincoln. lie combatted their
folly, and insisted that Lincoln's election would be
the most fortunate event for the South that could
possibly occur, because in his Judgment the sue
cess Of any Republican candidate would, within
six months after his Inauguration, forever put mn
end to slavery agitation.
The rights Of the South, be insisted, would be
far safer IN the hands Of such men as Seward or
Lincoln, than they ever had been under Democrat
ic rule because, while they would necessarily
prevent the extension Of slavery into free Territory,
they would scrupulously stand by all the cOnsti-
tutional rights Of the slave States, and exercise O
moral influence at the North favorable to q faith
# execution of the Fugitive Slave Law, and ad-
verse to the interference Of a handful Of trouble
some AbolitiUnists, whose incendiary conduct was
disgusting Republicans, at the aape time that
s~cheming Democratic leaders privately encouraged
their interference with the South in order to foster
slavery excitement. He insisted, therefore, that
Liueoln'e election would be a great national bles-
sing, and peculiarly beneficial to the South, as the
h~arLinger of the return of peace and harmony in
its relations with the North. and as calculated to
terminate forever oil sectional controversies, by get
ting rid of corrupt and selfish political leaders,
who fnd their ~interes. in fostering sectional feel
ing at the South, by deceiving the people in re-
gard to tue intentions and purposes of the Repub-
lican party.-N. J.. Courier & Enquirer.

usual rule Of calculating the population, which
has been frequently proved very accurate, the
above would furnish the basis fn- a population Of

contains. The vote will not exceed ) 5000. o.
