TERRIBLE NEWS We have no doubt, from
to-day ours is a disrupted and despoiled Repub-
lie that it no longer exists intact. We have
no doubt that South Carolina, and perhaps 9TH
er States, have ceased to be members of the
glorious confederacy formed by Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, Franklin, Adams and the
other immortal Fathers of the Republic. We
trust that Aboltionism and Republicanism,
which have for SO many years been waging wal
upon the institution of Southern slavery, will
enjoy the fruit of their labors. They have dis
rupted the Government, for time at least, per-
haps forever. Let the crazy fanatics rejoice

PRESIDENTS MEssAGE-We have read the
Presidents Message. He thinks no State has a
right under the Constitution, to secede from the
Union, but at the same time admits that the
Federal Government has no power to compel a
State by force of arms to remain in the Union
The iold public functionary" is as clear as mud.
If State has no right to secede, under the Con-
sttution, and yet does secede, she must of ne
cessity, in doing so, violate the Constitution,
and do what she has no right to do, and thus
commit wrong against the Republic. If this
be so, then the Republic must have the right
and power to attempt to redress that wrong
Whether the Federal Government will attempt
10 exercise that power is n mere question OF
policy. For ourself, we believe that it should
not be exercised We believe the wsest and
safest way is to let all the seeding States go
peaceably, if they no longer desire to remain in
the onion; for if they have fully determined to
withdraw from the Union, opposition by the
Federal Government cannot prevent it, and can
only have the effect of bringing on universal
civil war, with all its long train of terrible and
indescribable consequences.
