The Wan NEws.-Onr columns are
principally occupied. this week. with the
news from Charleston. It will be seen
that the excitement throughout the North
is intense. and volunteers are offering
their services by hundreds Of thousands.
Politics are thrown aside. and men Of al
parties are rallying to the support of the
Government. The crisis has come to .
bead. and Southern 6raggadocio must be
put to the test. It can now Le seen how
many real symp..hiaers with the Seces.
sionists are to be found in the North.
The Southern people were led to believe
that the city Of New York and several
Northern States would mako haste to join
them. They have been badly deceived.
for public sentiment is almost a unit in
the North. in favor Of sustaining the Go.
vernment; and there is also . very strong
Union feeling in the South. Those mis-.
cradle dogs in the North. who have been
preaching submission to treason for the
benefit Of Southern cars. and have even
been advising the Northern States to
adopt the Cotton Constitution. had now
better seek some dark hole in which to
hide their diminu.ive heads.
