The Revelation In New Grannda-Im-
pending Danger to Our Pacific Trade.
Troubles at home are very likely to make US
disregard dangers abroad. 1t becomes our
duty to call the attention of the people and
government of the United States to the fact
that an imminent danger is impending over our
Pacific trade across the Isthmus of Panama, in
consequence Of the revolution goir on in New
Granada. Thousands Of our citizens, and more
than one hundred millions worth of American
commerce, crossing yearly by that highway,
may very possibly be, at some early day, at
tie mercy Of an organized mob Of negroes and
other desperate characters. Our correspon-
dence from Panama by the last steamer advises
us that some fear was generally entertained
in that quarter that in case the New Grana-
dian government forces, now about to operate
against the revolntionists in the State Of Cauca,
and in the Atlantic States Of Magdalena and
Bolivar, were unsuccessful, the revolutionary
chiefs would doubtless attempt to make de-
scent, by sea, against the State Of Panama, and
occupy that transit route. A movement of this
kind was not considered very hazardous, as
they could rely upon some cooperation from
their compeers, the negroes on the transit
route, whose barbarity is fresh in
our remembrance since the massacres
of 1856, and who on several other
occasions have evinced their revolutionary
spirit, especially on their attempt, on the 9th
Of September last, to attack and take possession
of the city of Panama.
Tho avha,otoJ roJoral rvo rr;onp IF Ganto
Marta had arrived there lately; but the Panama
treasury was about as exhausted, and il seems
that it was not the intention of the authorities
to impose permanent tax upon the citizens
for their continual support; and moreover,
the troops were probably intended to be sent
lutionists. The interests thus jeopardized are
principally American, and ought to be prompt
ly and cnergetically attended to. The protec-
ton due to them, and the existence of an i'm
portant International compact, demand that
our government should act In the matter with
out delay.

NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, JANUARY H. 1861

| iett colDclutHce OF oPhiioH WAS arrived AT
that compromise propositions were locke,
upon unfavorabIy not from anyfeelings of hos
tlity towards the South, but rom the convic
ton that the cotton States are determined to 81
out OF the Union, no matter what peace offer
ings in the form of Northern concessions may
| be made to them'
We must confess that the indications OF a
compromise embodied in this intelligence are
| not very fiattering What, then, are we to ex-
pectF 1t would seem to be the policy of the
| President elect-First to do nothing for the
Union in the interval to the 4th of March. Sc
| condly, to prepare for the occupation of the
| federal government by force of arms, if neces-
! sary Thirdly, to enforce the federal laws in
the seeding States; and, lastly to coerce or
starve them into submission. Our Springfield
correspondent also assures US that the Presi-
dent elect does not approve the project of adj
hitting New Mexico as State with its Terrific
rial slave code unimpaired, and that he remains
as firm as ever in favor of the absolute exclu-
sion of slavery from the Territories.
Assuming all this to be authentic news, as we
do, it is manifest that Mr.. Lincoln, in the quiet,
secluded inland Illinois village of Springfield,
not seeing them, does not believe in the surging
waves of revolution which are carrying every
thing before them in the Southern States He
wants light, and, by those representatives of
his party at Washington who know, he should
at once be informed of the dangers of the crisis,
and of the immediate necessities for a COM
promise. Mr.. Seward has the floor of the
Senate, first in order, on the Presidents Mes
sage. In behalf of the Union the incoming
administration and the peace of the country
let him seize the occasion to present an accept
able compromise to the South. Largely in
strumental,' as the Albany Journal frankly and
truly declares him to be, for the present reyo-
lutionary condition of our public affairs, let
him come forward to the full measure of his
responsibilities, his promises and the public
expectations and Mr. Lincoln will hear and
believe.
The work of revolution moves on apace in
the South--a state of actual war is at length
hurryng it along. To reclaim the seeded
States, to appease the States contemplating Sc
cession, mastery inactivity for the present, and
coercion when they get the power, will not
avail the republican party Immediate peace
offerings are demanded from the party, not less
for its own sake than for the Union. Let Mr..
Seward then come forward bravely to his
duty, or bis faith in the tenacity of the States
to the Union will be speedily destroyed. With
the establishment of Southern confederacy
we may as well talk of the reunion of the
Italian States under the government of Austria
as of the restoration of our Southern States
to union with the North. Mastery
inactivity when great empire is beginning to
fall to pieces will not do, nor will empty glori
fications save the lettering fabric from
destruction.

DECLINE AND FALL OF HELpER.-About year
ago Helper was great man. His Impending
Crisis" was the topic of the day. Helper was
discussed in the journals, in private eoteries,
in the national Legislature and the Cabinet
councils Of the Executive. Helpers book had
been endorsed by the leading republican mem
bers Of the House and Senate, and had been
vehemently opposed by the democrstie MEM
bers. Helper ruined John Sherman, and put
Pennington into the Speakers chair Helper.
for the time being, was the prophet Of the re-
publican party. His book had a great pecu-
mary success, over two hundred H. ,usand
unsatisfied. By-and-by the astute Thurlow
Weed and some others of the same par ty found
out that Helper was doing them more Marin than
good, and they turned about, sayi ng tina, II
was all mistake, that they had ne yer read his
book, and did not, upon due oxamim .tion, believe
in it's doctrines. Then Helper sui sided Since
the real crisis arrived, Helper Hyatt & Co.

people are firmly convinced that the former

THE CONFEDERATE STATES ELEC-
TIONS

There seems to be in our exchanges a number
of misstatements with regard to the days on which
the Confederate elections are to be held. We
make fer precise and general information, the fol-
lowing abstract of the act of Congress regulating
such elections:
The election for members of Congress is to be
held on the first Wednesday, IN Nouem6er, 1861,
which election shall be conducted according to
the permanent Constitution and the laws Of the
several States in force for that purpose. In States
which may not have provided by law for such
election, the same will be held according to the
laws heretofore existing in such States for the
election of members of the House of Representa-
tives in the Congress of the United States.
The appointment Of Electors for President and
Vice President is also made on the day of the
Congressional election-the first Hedncsdoy IN
NOrember.
The Electors are to meet in their respective
States on the # 81 Wednesday, in December, 1861,
and proceed to vote for President and Vice Pres-
dent.
Congress is to assemble in regular session, at
the seat Of Government, on the eighteenth dny Of
Frbruury, 1862. On the nipeteenh day of
February, it is provided that the President Of the
Senate shall open the certificates, and the votes
for President and Vice President shall then be
counted
The President Of the Confederate States shall
be inaugurated on the :tccnty-sccond day Of FtJ-
ruury, 1862.

NORFOLK, Oct. 2l, 1SGl.-There is now in
Hampton Roads sixty odd vessels in ALL con>i. ting
of 81 steamers and the balance sailing vessels.
a Federal Lieutenant from one Of these ships
was taken last night at Pigs Point. His name is
Hale, and he processes to be nephew of the
secretary of the Lincoln Navy. He says he desert
cd having become tired Of the service This is a
very good yarn no doubt, but will hardly avail
him much. When taken he was in a canoe above,
making his way to our shore at Pigs Point-no
doubt for the purpose Of accommodating, and
having been caught, comes forward with most
wonderful batch Of information for the Confede-
rates. He says that the Lincoln forces have no
idea Of attacking Norfolk; that their object is
Beaufort, in North Carolina Norfolk, he says,
they know to be too strongly fortified, and they
are afraid to attempt az attack.

"THE Pressure OF PUBLIC OPINIoN."-
When this broke out we had a very respecta-
bic and gcntcel colored barber here-Isham SWEET
by name-who was induced to give up his tonso-
rial operations here and accompany two Of our
Company officers to the war waiter, &c. After
about four months Of camp life he came home all
ing and declined to return to camp But soon he
called upon the lady of one of the officers to say
that he about to 90 back, and to ask her com
munds. ',Why, SWEET" said she, 81 understood
that you had tired Of camp life and had come
back to stay" $50 had, madam, was the re-
ply; ''and have made every effort to stay but the
pressure Of public opinion is too strong for me and
| am compelled to return to my duties in the
camp"

Lincoln offers aid and comfort to Aerico.-
The New ork Herald says that intelligence has
been received from Minister Corwin, i'll Mexico,
which is regarded highly important at this
time Mexico is compelled to have money to pay
the interest on her English debt, and thus release
her from her present embarrassment. The Herald
further states that lncoln'S Government is de-
terlnned to stand by Mexico at all hazards, and
will protect her against any encroachmens from
foreign powers. President Lincoln had addressed
letter to England, France and Spain, that those
powers might know what his intentions are, but
no response from those powers had been received.
THE Yankees will have about much as they
can do to help themselves, without undertaking
to aid Mexico.
