The Southern Secessionists speak as
though the election of Lincoln was the sole
cause of their demanding new guarantees
of their rights. Such, however, is not the
case. The Census of 1860 will soon be in
shape to form the basis of The new Congress
to be elected in 1862. Tho old theory of
keeping up an equality of Free and Slave
States in the Senate has already been de-
stroYed. Now on the admission of Kansas
tho State will stand 10 free, to 8 slave.-
Before 1870 at least new additional Free
States will be in the Union. Even if New
Mexico and Arizona should adopt slave in
stitutions, that would cnly mako them 7
slave to "a free states--but tho probabili-
ties arc that they will then stand 26 to is.

very strange that the high prices now ruling do

There was some talk about the mails, and that
direct intelligence from Liverpool had been receiv!
ed several days later than that brought by the
Fingal at Savannah. The mails, however, are at
skies and sevens, and no prospect of relief. The
entire post-ofice system might as well be abolish

postal service on lower terms and not be the cause
Of one currency, specie for Office holders and
Government, and another currency for the people.
Talking OF mails brought up the overland express
Of Mckeever, that is, the express through Texas
to Tampieo. From the many observations made,
this mode of communication and transmission of
letters to all parts of the world is sure success.
We have had the pleasure of meeting and con-
yersing with gentlemen recently from the, Rio
GraHde, who inform us that the arrangements ex-
pected to have been made by Mr.. McKeever have
been accomplished, fully carried out. From the

This is good opportunity for our merchants to
address their correspondents and friends in Eng
land, and to give John Bull some positive and
direct information about cotton; that the crop is
safely housed on plantations, and will not be
brought to the seaports until it suits the conve-
nenee, views and interests Of the owners, and they
can also say to Lancashire not to be bamboezled
by Lincoln, Seward & Co. In the meantime, if any
