pOLITICAL.

Secession or no secession +. That's
the question. Whether It's nobler in
the Southern people to suffer the abu-
ses hoapcd upon them by a dominant
and fanatical set of a~bolitionists and
nulli6crs Of tho Constitution as handed
down to us by Washington, or take
arms ndctcncc of our liberties and our
rights--that's the question. The next
forty days will develop many things Of
startling interest.
As for our part, we hope no State will
scccde. We hope all will remain in tho
Union, and strive by honorable appeal
and reason to obtain proper regard for
their rights, and we hope the South
will be united, as n surcr means Of ma
king the North do us justice. In ma
ture elaboration we write, and honest.
]y confess chat our heart yearms for the
Union. 1t is enlcared TO rs bya thous-
and memories by bloody battles and
victories wor; by noble deeds of noble
men; by The grace Of washington by
the stars and stripes. A division is
terrible to contcmplatc--it makes us
shudder to think about it.
If unfortunately however any slave
State shouM consider 1t right to socede,
and the strong arm Of Federal power
is attempted to be used to cocrcc that
State to continue in the Union, then
wo feel assured that all minor dihorcn-
COS will be forgotten all cnmitios buried
and that the people 1faII the Southern
States will rally to the assistance Of the
seeding States. The aspect Of affairs
is truly threatening and fearful excite.

one can ioretcIl what may happen, but
NAV Heaven grant that We may wit
ness II speedy restoration VI qnictuio
and confidence.
We have no time or room this week
TO say more on politics, but will in our
next. Asa matter OF news, we would
state that Georgia, Alabama, and SCOUT
Carolina gre taking steps that indicate
secession. Tennessee should act rs I:
mediator, but ifthe worst must come.
may she fall into the proper ranks is

Ter times, the more important to adver
