FRIGHTvuL OPPRESSION IN MIssIssIPPI.-The
sscessionists of South Carolina and Mississi ppi
are particularly anxious to keep the world from
knowing some things that are going on in these
States. Yesterday, a gentleman, formerly a
member of the Kentucky Legislature. stated
that be was just starting for Mississippi TO en-.
deavor to relieve his brother in that State
The brother had written him that q tax was
imposed upon every slave owner in the State
OF $l2 for each negro; that unless the tax
should be paid within very few days, the ne
gro property was to be eon6scsted to the psb-
lie use; that his own negro tax amounted 10
$l,5OO, which he had no means whatever of
paying; and that hundreds of slave proprietors
were hurryiDg their slaves out of the State to
escape the intolerabls oppression. He emoreover
wrote that this was known to be only the be-
ginning of a terrible system of taxation, and
added the expression Of his perfsst conviction
that the people would not stand It-thst within
thirty days they would rise up in their wrath
and their strength, and crush oppression and
sppressors alike beneath their fset.-Louis.

with ssch efforts, it may not be possible to
avert the terrible calamiIies which menace us
from the condition of unparalleled excitement
into which that section of the country has been
thrown by recent events.

slohs OF the people to their very depths The
unanimous offers ofmen AID money by ths Leg
islature of States, the exasperated tone of ths
press, and the call TO arms which is sounding
and resounding on all sides, all portend the
bursting of the storm.
The drectisn of public sentiment is marked
very cOnsplcuously by the veeriug of the New
York Tribune, which has given up its pet idea
OF peaceabe secession, and now, under the
pressure Of Ihe passions which surround it, pro-
poses to meet revolutions with revolutionary
