.sComrremIses WorthIs...1

The following article, from the Chicago
Tribune, we commend to all Republicans who
feel inclined to desert the principles laid down
in the Chicago Platform, and basely compro-
mise with traitors and rebels, for the purpose
Of gstting possession of tuat power which
they have fairly earned. If the Republican
party cannot take possession ot the Govern
ment after having carried the election fairly
AMI in a Constitutional manner, without
buying peace with the Breckinrldge dis
union party at the expense of its principles
then the quicker the party disbands, the better
ave believe we correctly represent the SEN
timents and purposes of the Republicans of
the Northwest when we state, that they not
not only repudiate every plan Of compromise
that has been or that may hereafter be pre-
sented, but that no earthly power will ever
be able to compel them to accept ofany other
adjustment of existing difficulties than such
IS the Constitution, as it is, affords. Men
whom Republicans have elevated to high
position may prove recreant TO the truss re-
posed in them-may barter away the very
principles which they were elected to uphold
and enforcs, but the people themselves-the
source Of all political power-will rspudiate
them and their acts, and renew the struggle
If there is any other sentiment than this
among the Republicans Of the Northwest, we
have yet to learn it. There will be, there
can be, no end to this controversy until it
shall have been settled, and settled perma-
nently, upon the painciples Of the Republi-
can party. 1t will 60 on so long as the con-
stitution Of the human mind remains IN
changed, and the impulses of the human
heart are in harmony with eternal Justice
Let the border States take notice that until
the Constitution is administered precisely as
our fathers made it and in the same spirit,
there can be no peace. If through the rec
reancy and coward fears of q few Northern
representatives compromise is patched up
acceptable to those States, q cry Of repeal
will be inaugurated to that end which will
sweep everything before it. We say frankly
to the citizens Of the border slave States,
that if they connot consent to live under the
Constitution as it is, if they are unwilling for
q Constitutionally elected President to take
his Office without purchasing it by conces-
sions to minority-comprOmis will not be
worth the making. They ought not to stand,
and they will not stand"
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-02-08


We hope to see every paper in the country,
which hoists the Republican aag, speak out
boldly and unequivoeally upon The questions
Of the day, and hope further, that having
done 50, they will send that issue which pro-
claims their principles, to every Republican
member Of Congress. Let them state ex-
plieilly whether they are in favor of eOmPro-
missing with traitors, or are in favor Of stand-
ing BY the Constitution and enforcing the
laws, Such an open expression will d much
to give confidence to those who viii soon be
At the head Of public affairs. Ia bad better
be settled at once, and definitely und rstoOd,
whether the Republicans will stand by the
principles Of the Chicago Platform, the laws
and the Constitution, or not
While we believe that not more than one in
hundred would favor a surrender and con-
eession of principles, still we know of Rspub-
lean papers, which for reasons best known to
themselves, do not state their position upon
this question. Such vacillating course EN-
harnesses oar friends and gives aid and com
fort to the enemy. TIE LRADER and the
Wanhter am Erie, of this city, have spoken
cut boldly aud earns estly against all cOmpro-
mise with traitors who are in arms against the
Government; we trust other Republican pa
pers will do likewise.

Nu4t Hoft Of wen Nfs AAfAoNla WAAAe'
A committee from Philadelphia lately pro-
oesded to Springfield to urge the appoint
ment Of Gen, Cameron 70 Mr.. Lneoln's Cab
met BY the reply Of The President elect
which we give below-it will be seen that
Mr.. Lincoln intends to have for his advisers
such men only as are-like himself" pure
and above reprOaoh;" :" m
Gentlemen, in the formation Of my Cab
met, shall aim az nearly ca possible ct per-
fection. Any man whom may appoint 70
such position must be, as far ss possible,
like CRsar's wife, pure and above suspicion
Of unblemished reputation and undoubted
integrity. have already appointed Senator
Seward and Mr.. Bates, Of Missouri, and they
are men whose characters think the breath
of calumny cannot impeach. In regard to
General Cameron, have received assurance
without limit from gentlemen whose word is
entitled 70 credit, that he is eminently fitted
for the position which his friends desire him
TO fill, and that his appointment would give
great satisfaction TO Pennsylvania. | have
great desire 10 appoint Gen. Cameron, for
the reason that be was formerly Democrat,
and wish 10 give that element a fair rep
resentation in the distribution Of the offices.
Both Mr.. Seward and Mr.. Bates were form
erly old line Wings, and for this reason
feel a disposition 10 appoint Gen. Cameron.
But on the other hand there is strong op-
position b him not from his own State, it is
true, for the opposition To him there is so
slight that II Is scarcely worth mentioning.
The feeling against him appears to come from
Chic, and one or two Of the Wes'ern States.
His opponents charge him with corruption in
obtaining contracts, and contend that il be is
appointed be will use the patronage Of his Of
fee for his own private gain. / have no
knowledge Of the acts charged against him,
but intend 10 make an investigation Of the
whole matter, by allowing his opponents to
submit their proof and | shall give him an
opportunity Of explaining any part be may
have had in the transactions alleged against
him. For my own part, can see no impro-
priety in bis taking contracts, or making mon
ey out of then, as that Is e mere matter of
business. There is nothing wrong in this,
unless some unfairness or dishonesty is shown,
which superstition ! have no doubt Gen
Cameron will be able to disprove. I shall
deal fairly with him, but say to you, gen.
tlemen, frankly, that if the charges against
him are proven, be cannot have a seat in my
CaDlneL, as Will not nave any lAn assOcle-
ted with me whose character is impeached.-
will say further, that if he vindicates him
self have the strongest desire to place him
in the position you wish him to fill, and
which YOU think the interest of your State
demand. If after he has been appointed,
should be deceived by subsequent transac-
tons of disreputsble character the respOn-
sibiIity tOiU Tsst upon you, gentlemen of Penn

claim 10 my consideration. But this is sup
posing a state Of things which may never oc-

KenfncI,H ia Sound.

On Tuesday last the House Of Representa-
tives, in Frankfort passed the following reso-
ton by vote of "a to 80. The Senate had
previously adopted it by a vote Of IS to II.
The land of Clay and Marshall is sound on
the Union question.
The following is the resolution:
ResoEvsd, That as this General Assembly
has made an application t. Congress to call
National Convention TO amend the Consti-
tuition of the United States and re luested
the Legislatures OF all the other States to
make similar applications, and has appointed
Commissioners to meet those which have
oeen appointed by the State of Virginia, and
such as may be appointed by other States,
at designated time and place, to consider
and, if practicable, agree upon some suitable
adjustment of the present unhappy cOntro-
versies, Il Is unnecessary and insrpedieat for
this Legislature 10 take aTy further action on
this subject at the present tine, As an evi-
dence Of the sincerity and good faith Of our
propositions for an adjustment and an ex-
preston of devotion to the Union, and desire
for its preservation, Kentucky awaits with
deep solicitude the response from her sister
States

New and Hnlnnblo onrtnn ris1d,.

The New York Tribune says that Mr.. E.
G. Squier, well known in connection With
Central America, has written letter to the
Hon. d. B. Anthony concerning the sources
of cotton supply. BE shows that the whole
Of Central America is pre-eminently cotton
growing region, and that the finest yarieties
Of cotton are there indigenous and perennial
The plant which in South Carolina furniIhes
q single crop Of $50 or $50 pounds per acre,
produces in Central America two crops Of
500 ponds each per acre The average
yield Of cotton in the South, according to the
estimate Of the late Levi Woodbury., is less
than ons-third Of that Of the country above
spoken Of That the cultivation is practice
bic, and can De made profitable, is shown
thus: Some years ago, an American set up
gins and presses in Nicaragus, not trying to
ralse cotton himself only to clean and pack
what be bought from the natives. During
the second year of his operations be shipped
$4,000, 900 pounds, which atook a high
standard in the Manchester market" The
difficulty Of reaching a market alone caused
him to abandon the undertaking. Touching
the objection always urged, that a deficiency
Of labor wou.a repress the cultivation Of cot
ton in Central America, Mr.. squier shows
that whenever any useful and profitable
branch Of industry has been introduced into
that country, hands have not been wanting to
carry it on. BE cites, as an instance, the cut
ting Of Mahogany in Northern Honduras
which called into efficient service a hardy
body Of laborers from what one would have
thought the most unprOmising stOck-the Ca
rib Indians. The average rate of wages
throughout Central America is about %
cents per day, less than the average cost Of
slave labor. he also states, on tie strength
Of his oVn observation, that in most parts Of
the country where cotton fourishes luxu-
riantly, white men can labor more effective
II than In any Of the United States. The ap-
plioation Of these facts viii be very easily

Some years ago, when ''the West was a
new country, and law was administered in a
summary manner by nliterate magistrates
there lived in Michigan a settler named Brad
shaw, who, having lost sundry sums Of money
by careless endorsement Of notes, &c, for
friends declared he would never endorse an
other piece of paper for friend or foe. He
was shortly applied to BY an acquaintance
named Olaik, to endorse note of $780,
Bradshaw refused, giving his reasons. Clark
impatiently urged him to grant the accom-
modation, for the sake of friendship, Brad
shaw was inexorable, and finally Clark few
into passion and left, swearing vengence.--
The next night Bradshaw's house and barn
were burned, some valuable stock perishing
in the latter. Suspicion rested on Clark, and
all the circumstances pointed 10 him as the
cause of the FIRE. A thick-headed Justice
was called upon for warrant for Clark
arrest BE declined to issue the process, Civ
ing the astonishing reason that in his legal
opinion nobody was to blame except
Bradshaw, as be could have prevented all
crime by simply complying with Clark's re-
quest and endorsing his paper. His refusal
to do so had provoked Clark into the COM
mission of the crime, if any had been COM
mitted, and therefore he bradshaw was
alone responsible. If he issued any warrant
it would be for the arrest of Bradshaw him
self. He therefore dismissed the case"
The Democracy show Just about as much
sense in charging the Republicans with being
responsible for the disunion movement be-
cause they will not allow the Shareholders to
rule the North as well as the South, as did the
backwOods justice in charging Bradshaw
with arson.

ARad spen.

John Smith don't like COL Parsons
letter; but for all that he needn't try to
"spen him down." by closing his communi-
cation to the Plain Dealer with such horrid
specimen of grammar and OrthOgraphy as
the following:
"Al that the South demands is their
rights undlsputed under the Constitution, and
this the people Of the North are willing to
grant if they can have an opportunity. Talk
not Of Lincoln's election as settling anything
on the subject Of slavery, but place hagard
" "Irrepressible Conflict" naked before the
people, and the monster will be as certainly
crushed as Saten was elected trOm Heaven"
John should bs..ex-spelled from the news

n NEW JERSEY HERoINR.-A correspondent
Of the N. Y. Tribune writes thus of the wife
OF Lieut. Slemmer who is in charge of Fort
Pickens. Lieutenant Slemmer acted on his
own responsibility, and the country will gal
lantly sustain him in what he so wisely did
Alter the barracks had been so hastily evac.
uated that even Mrs. Slemmers trunks and
clothes were left behind in the hurry. the reb-
els took possession. Mrs. Slemmer took boat
and returned TO the barracks to obtain them
The sentry stopped her and demanded her busi-
ness, but she pushed bravely on, and entering
the barracks, asked that the trunks contain
ing her clothing might be given up. Though
no insulting demonstration was made, vet the
rebels refused her It was then the fire of her
soul broke forth. "Then,' said she, 81 will
command one of Lieutenant Slemmers guns
myself, and when he gives the word to FIRE.
will batter down your barracks.
This lady, y,Whose name is Caroline, is Jersey
woman, the youngest daughter Of the Rev.
John Reynolds OF the Episcopal Church, for
merly ehamplain in the navy, and long a resi-
dent OF Burlington, where his three daughters
were educated at st. Mary's Hall. She grad
uated there when only fifteen years of age.
aud is but twenty now. She was distinguished
at school for great aptitude for learning, and
excessive fondness for reading. Out of school.
though generally seen with some miseellan-
eous book in hand, yet in school she was
probably never known TO be deficient with
her lesson. Her education has been very com
plete. Her intellectual faculties are of the
highest order. Her mind is quick, strong and
courageous, making her speech to the rebels
exsctly what one might have expected from
such heroine. In lace and feature she is ex-
tremly prepossessing, with very captivating
manners. She is worthy to be the wife OF the
hero of Fort Pickens."

III. Famine IN Kansas.

The reports Of the horrible suferings Of
the starving people Of Kansas are multiply
ing every hour. More energetic measures
must be taken by the people for the relief Of
our countrymen in Kansas, or those who will
have persisted by starvation viii be number
ed by tens of thousands.
Immediate action should be taken
The Herald Of last evening says, let the Leg
islature make an appropriation, whether it
be constitutional or not. We echo the ssnti-
ment most heartily. We trust the press
throughout the State will take the same
view. Who cares FOR technical points of the
cOnstitutiOnality of an appropriation to save
our counEymen in Kansas from starvation.-
Let the Legislature Of Ohio appropriate $780,
900 immediatsly for the purpose, and let the
press throughout Ohio sustain the act.
We would suggest that public meeting be
called in this city to take measures for re-
Ieving the starving. No time should be lost,
for every days delay may add hundreds to the
list of the starved.
By telegraph, it viii be seen that large
quantity of clothing which is especially need
ed in this cold winter weather, is held by the
railroad at AtchisOn for want of funds to pay
freighs. Think Of women with only rag
ged calico dress TO wear in such day as yes
tsrday, and such night as last night, exc
posed to the winds which sweep down from
the North Pole across a thousand miles of
snow and ice. Think of whole families per-
isbing in the cold for the want of clothing,
and of their travelling scores OF miles for aid,
through the snow, with nOprotectiOn for their
laceratsd feed

A letter from Baltimore to the New York
Tribune, shows what has already been gained
in Maryland by the conclusion forced upon
the people of that State that the Republicans
will not purchase tie possession of power by
sacrificing their principles. There is vol
ums Of valuable philosophy contained in the
brief paragraph we quote, which politicians
might wisely stow away in their memories;
"The authoritative denial by the SPRING
6eld Journal Of the reported sympathy Of the
President elect with the compromise schemes
now Matching at Washington, has given the
friends Of the Federal Government in Balti-
more more hopefulness Of the Union than any
event that has yet occurred since the outbreak
Of the rebels. It has imposed on the conserv-
ative element the necessity CT protecting
itself from the further violence of the seces-
sionist cabal. That element has hitherto
been palsied by the hope Of Republican con-
eessions, which Maryland conservatives were
as willing to accept as those of the cotton
States, for we are as keenly alive to political
power as South Carolina is Had Preston
King and Ben Wade's example been followed
By every Republican in Congress, at the
opening Of tire session, l do not believe a sin
gle State would have gone out-On paper
