LETTER FROM PHILADELpHIA.-A frierd
in this city has handed us business let
ter from Philadelphia, dated the Goth ult.,
from which we make the following ex-'
tract:
cuisines is reviving here, and the Bell
stock is rising. am in hopes that Bell
will carry our State. At one time his
prospects were very gloomy, but the abo-
lition sentiments of the great guns Of the
Lincoln party have been discharged too
soon, and exposed their fanaticism and
deformity, SO much so that thousands Of
old line Wings are coming back to the
Union conservative party. l believe Bell
and Everett are more popular in Phila-
dclphia city than any other candidates,
and the country is waking up to better
knowledge of the sentiments of our party.
The Democrats of this State will, when
they believe Douglas and Breckenridge
are fighting against each other, turn round
and vote for Bell against Lincoln.
do sincerely hope the Black Republi-
can party will be so badly beaten that il
will have to drop the word Republican
and be called by its proper name-"Aboi
| lition."

No More of That.

4 telegram of the Goth inst, has in
formed the whole Western Continent that
the loyal people of Quebec did very silly
thing last Sunday, lin honor OF His Roy
al Highness, the Prince Of Wales. Here
is the dispatch:
"The Prince attended divine service at
the Anglican Cathedral yesterday, dressed
in plain clothes. lie was met at the porch
by the Bishop and clergy. The Cover
nor's pew was retitted with crimson dra-
perry. having throne in the center"
TO make no comment on the propriety
of the Bishops turning sacristan for the
occasion, what will sensible Englishmen
say of the "thronc in the center" of the
pew, erected for the occupancy of the
Prince? Couldn't he be permitted to con-
fcss himself "miseable sinner without
the '.pomp and vanity" Of sitting on a
mock throne in the house Of the King OF
kings? Is not the Throne of Grace the
only throne that should command the at.
tention OF Christian worshipcrs on the
Sabbath? The Prince went to church, it
seems, dressed in plain Clothes" as was
betitting. What pity ''the Bishop and
clergy" should not have shown as much
respect for the place as the young lad eX-
hbtcd. Thomas lIood--poet, and most
loval Englishman-wrote these lines
Did the Bishop and clergy Of Quebec
ever read them?

The Conservative of the Country.
An Example Worthy of Imitation.

The South has given to the rest of the
Union an example well worthy of mta-
ton. One Of the Southern candidates
for the Presidency was-we can hardly
say is-Mr. Breckenridge. This gentle
mad is young, able, gallant, Of winning
manners and address, and extremely
popular The South could not have had
candidate more completely to its taste.
But, unfortunately for his chances of po-
litical elevation, he had accepted his
nomination from men who allowed them
selves to be headed and controlled by Sc
cessonists. That fact ruined Mr.. Breck-
inridge's Presidential aspirations. De
servedly esteemed as he was in his own
section, and indeed everywhere, the pop
ular verdict in almost every Southern
State that has since spoken has been adj
verse to him. This is q warrant and as
surance to the world that so far as the
| South is concerned that section is devo
ted to the maintenance of the Union and
the perpetuity of our institutions, and
will continue in that position if the NORTH
will give them a chance to do so. 1t i,
for the North now to give them thai
chance. 1t is for the North to prove its de
votion also to the Union. Mr.. Lincoln
however eligible he might be in o:hc
respects, is the nominee of men as avow
cdly hostile 20 the South as Yancey & Co
were hostile to the North, and that fac
ought to ruin his Presidential aspiration
just as Mr. Breckinridge saw his dies
troyed by a parallel state of things. lie
the people Of the North prove that the
are as generous and as conservative a
the people Of the South, by refusing t
give their suifiuges to one who is so er
tirely Objectionable as is Abraham Lir
coin. This will insure the peace of tn
country and cause both sections to er
tertam for each other sentiments of kline
ness, respect and admiration.

1t is generally denied by your Southern

by Black Republicans. "Straws show

Mr.. Bell on Abolition Petitions.

In 1910, Mr. Bell addressed a letter to
Gov. Gilmer, of Georgia, in which his poll
cy and motives with regard to Abolition
petitions were fully declared. The follow
ing passage, which we quote from that
letter, ought to satisfy everybody, except
those who are determined beforehand not
to be satisfied with anything:
"My opinion was, that whether the pc
titioners had right on their side or not,
sound policy dictated the reception and
reference of their petitions. | believed
that any unusual course in regard to them,
would give undue importance to the
movement of the aJolitionists, furnish
new ground for agitation, and rather in
crease the existing excitement than allay
it. In my opinion, IL report from II COM
mittec at each >e~SiOn--tcmperatc, yet
firm and unqualified in its conclusions
would have been well calculated to cor
rect false impressions at the North: to
dispel prejudice, and prevent that ferment
and angry feeling at the South which, at
that stage of the question, was calculated
to do mischief. Whether right or wrong,
and without pretending to ccnsure those
friends who differed with me, have uni
iormly held these opinions; yet | will add
that few gentlemen in the South would
be more prepared for prompt and decisive
measures OF resistance and protection
should the rights and interests of the
South connected with this subject ever be
invaded through Congress or otherwise
than myself"

L. Yancey at the Maryland Institute, af-
ter Breckenridge and Lane had been
nominated, and it,cas camly and enthusias-
ticaiiy received BY the delegates and Breckin-
ridge outsiders in attendance. Mr.. Yanoey

movement from the beginning, and did
more to nominate Breckenridge than any
other one hundred men. His idea, as
avowed in his letter to Colonel Slaughter
in 1858, SIS 10 precipitats tie Southern States
into revolution." The cause is to be the
election of Lincoln, which Yancey is
trying to bring about by running Breck-
inridge, and SO dividing the Opposition!

Virginia and Georgia Politics.

Alexander II. Stephens, Of Georgia, says
correspondent ofthc Philadelphia Press,
has written very strong letter to one of
his friends in this city. lie states that
he can no longer abstain from fighting
for those principles upon which now
rest the preservation Of the Union and
the welfare of the whole country, and,
therefore, he will make his first campaign
speech at Augusta, next Saturday. His
brother, Linton Stephens, who resigned,
last year, his position as one of the Judges
of the Supreme Court Of Georgia, is also
out for Douglas, and stumping the State,
Governor Letcher, Of Virginia, is out
directly for Douglas. His coming out
proves that Western Virginia, or the
part next to the Blue Ridge, is entirely
for Douglas. The Tenth Legion will give
Inn five thousand majority over all 9th.
er candidates, and will elect Douglas
man to Congress. That Legion is the
stronghold of the Democracy Of Virginia
and always giving the largest Democratic
maiorities. Nevertheless, the Democracy
being thus divided, there is not shadow
of hope either for Breckenridge or Doug
las to carry the State. Lctcher's majority
last year over the Opposition was only five
thousand votes. That plainly shows that
the Bell men will carry Virginia, and
that the old Democratic Commonwealth
will for the first time embrace something
else but Democracy.

ANECDoTE OF GEN. JACKsoN.--Judge
Douglas having stated, few days ago, in
Virginia, that he would treat the Dsun-
ionists in the same way General jackson
did the Nullifers when he was President,
reminds us, says the Washington States
and Union, of an anccdote OF that great
mau.
During notification in South Carolina
after Gen. Jackson's proclamation, the
Governor of Virginia sent request to
the President, in case it became necessa-
ry to send United States troops down
South, not to send them through that
State. If he did, they would have to
pass over the Governors dead body. The
President received the message, and re-
piled: "lf it becomes necessary for the
United States troops to go to South Caro-
lima, I, as commander-in-chie of the
army, will be at their head; | will march
them by the shortest route; they may
pass through Virginia; but, by the Eter.
nal, if the Governor makes it necessary
to pass over his dead body, it will be
found that will have previously taken
oil both his ears"
Bay~ Senator Green of Missouri, one OF
the most active OF the Yancey Breckin,
ridge leaders, evidently anticipates the
withdrawal of Mr.. Breckenridge before
the middle of October. He says in g
late speech;
Il feel confident that before the mid
die of October a condition of things will
occur to induce all to unite as band o
brothers upon the man best calculated tc
beat back the Vandal hords of Black
Republicansm; to do which, if it could
only be accomplished by such sacrifice,
,oouM wiHingiy cote for either Mr.. Douglas o.
Mr.. Bel, widely as differ from them or
someimportant questions of political poll
cy."

New YoRK SUGAR MARKET.-The Couri-
er and Enquirer of Saturday says:-We
have again to note an extremely dull and
inactive demand for all sorts of sweets,
and further falling off in prices. The
excessive stock, larger than ever before
at this season, and the continued advices
OF more coming, with the light demand
from the trade for either raw or manu-
facturod goods, has brought about this
state of affairs. The good reports from
all sugar-growing countries in regard tc
the crops for 1860 and 1861 also afford
another cause for expecting lower prices
Sales to day are very small. A compare
tive statement of the stock of sugar on
hand in New York shows it to be double
that of last and treble that of the yeai
proceeding.

enemy of society, and must take the

Mr.. Toombs has long been regarded as
statesman and politcian-able, bold,
eloquent, and sagacious. He has declared,
by a recent vote in the Senate Of the Unit
ed States, on Mr.. Browns resolution, that
slave property in the Territories docs not
require any other protcct;on than it has
now. lie says sui stantially, and even
pointcdly, by his vote on that occasion,
that "the Constitution and the common
law affords adequate and sufficient pro-
lection 20 slave property in the Terrific
ries." And yet, although his vote, and
his declarations by that vote, are known
to all reading men, he goes before the
people and tells tLem that shareholders
have not adequate and sufficient protec-

THE NORFOLK INTERRoGAToRIEs.--Th
Washington correspondent of the Gin.
cinnati Enquirer says
1t now appears that the question put
to Douglas at Norfolk. as to whether he
regarded the election of Lincoln suth-
cient cause for the secession of the South
ern States, and whether he would sdvise
it, was written by Lamb, an eleetor-at-
large of the Breckenridge ticket, when
Douglas after answering in the negative
and denouncing any attempt at secession,
asked that the questions should be pro-
pounded to Breckenridge. Lamb, who
was in the crowd, responded that he
should answer them too.
