COERCION SYMPTOMS IN THE WEST AND NoRTH-
wEsr.-While the people of the South are
agitating, and those of New York, Pennsylva-
mia, New Jersey and New England are talking
as though they were the whole country, private
accounts from the Western and Northwestern
States show that the most intense excitement
prevails beyond the Alleghanies and on the
lakes with respect to the crisis by which the
Union Is agitated. The cry "the Union must
and shall be preserved" exists there still in its
fullest integrity, and sturdy citizens look
ominously ut their rifles, as though they might
speedily be called into requisition as an ultima
ratio 70 settle difficulties. Illinois, Wisconsin,
Indiana and Ohio scout the idea that the
mouths of the Mississippi can by any posi-
bility be closed, or rendered less free than
they are now; and even in Missouri we are
told that clubs exist ready to rally at the
shortest notice in behalf of the jeoparded
Interests Of the country. Threats are low,
rather than loud, but the more serious and
heartfelt for that; and the mere rumor that the
Inauguration of Mr.. Lincoln at Washington
would be prevented has aroused democrats
and republicans alike to indignation. 1t Is to
be devoutly hoped that the issues before the
people may be settled pleasantly, and that all
parts of the country alike will scout the idea
of civil war. But II is manifest that If so dire
calamity should befall us, large portion Of
Northern hostile sentiment would find Its
nucleus around the sturdy pioneers of the
Western States who seem to be taken least
into account at the present moment.
