OUR COMMISSIONER AND 70 BLOCKADE
The New York 8Eion, of the 18th of October,
says:
The intelligence was somewhat surprising
that the Nashville steamer had run ont of
Charleston on The night Of the 18th inst, bound
TO England or France, and carrying Mrssrs.
Mason and SideIl, two well known southern
politicians, as commissioners, or delegates, OK
ministers, TO those two countries respectively
Il was argued that the effect Of the arrival.
of those gentlemen al their destinations would
be detrimental 10 the Union cause. iuasmuch as
another proof world be afforded of the ineii-
cheney Of the blockade, and the two powers
might be seducad by new advantages p%r0ttered
them. On this point we have nothing to say,
save tina. the ineficiaucy of tine blockade has
been already notorious, and that IT England
could be tempted to sUerve from her neutrality,
fresh temptations TO her national interests were
scarcely needed.

The ArguS, as we once before upon a time
remarked, has the faculty in perfection of "div-
ing deeper and coming up nastier" than any
Northern man should possess. He has no right
to monopolize from among the recognized lean
ers of the democratic party so much unadul-
terated. unmitigaed dough. In an article head
ed "The National Fast" published last week,
the Argts says:
ave trust that it may be the day from which to
date the determination faithfully to fulfil al otir riolr
ted obligations to our outraged brethren Of The South"
By this he cannot but mean that we shall
catch their niggers, consent to admit slavery
into Vermont and all the other Northern States
and to stop preaching, writing, talking or think.
ing against Slavery! for such are the "outragcs'
of which the South complains.
We commend to his careful, prayerful con.
sideration the following from the "Remark,
of Increase ID. Ophacc, Esquire, at an Elk.

Mr.. II. Bglow":
"For the silver spoon born in Dcmocricy's moutl

A WE'LL MERITED CONFERENCE.-THE learn
from the Burlington Daily Times that the
boarders at the Lake House in that village,
made their host, NJ. B. Curtis, the recipient of
Christmas present of "a salvcr, pitcher, COB
lets and ;ce-bowl of excellent workmanship"
We can readily canceivc of the reasons for this
very complimentary treatment on the part of
Mr. Curtiss boarders. 1t is no more than fair
and honorable recognition of the attentions they
receive from their popular host. The Lake
House is place where every guest goes away
more than satisfied, and Mr. Curtis is canonized
in our memory as "a jewell of a landlord. To
sum up his merits in a slang but very express
sive phrase, "hc ca, keep a hotel.'

TIIH DIE CAsTi

South Carolina is in state of reasonable re-
bellion against the United States government.
She has seized upon the vessels, custom-houses
and arsenal within her limits, and has converted
them to the separate use of what she has de-
clared to be an independent State. She has
virtually levied war against the United States
by the capture of the revenue cutter, arsenal
and public stores under an asserted indepen-
dent authority. A similar outrage from any
foreign government would not admit of any
explanation or diplomacy, itwould be punish
ed by the immediate and combined action of
all the forces and instrumentalties Of the gen.
eral government. Not only reparation for the
past but security for the future would be exact
ed at the mouth of the cannon and the point
of the bayonet
What position our government will assume
in view of recent startling events it is difficult
to predicate. A "masterly inactivity with
decided leanings towards the Revolutionists
and traitors has thus far characterized its ac.
TONS The resignation of Floyd and the firm
ness of some of the remaining cabinet officers
is the only CLEAN of hope. If the President
will fill the vacant place by the appointment Of
some high officer in the army, one in whose tried
integrity people have confdence-as Gems
Scott Wool, or Cooper, we shall trust for an
early solution"of impending difficulties. But j
things are to go on as they have gone for The
last thirty days, bloodshed and civil war mus
be the inevitable result.
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1861-01-03

The argus, in half pious, half lugubrious
strain expresses fear that Buchanan's fast will
not be properly observed. He trusts "that all
'parties, all sects, will cordially unite, on that
"day, to invoke the intcrpositon of God in be-
"half of our distracted country. We trust that
cit may be the day from which to date the de-
termination faithfully to fulfill all our violated
obligations to our outraged brethren at the
South" &c.
Now this sort of cant is all well enough in
an ardent supporter of the imbecie, and profit
gate administration at Washington, an admin
istration in league with treason and with trail
tors occupying high places in its counsels. To
our mind the notions entertained by the good
old lady who narrowly escaped injury with a
runaway horse by jumping from the wagon, are
much more applicable to our national affairs
When asked if in her distress she put her trust
in Providence, she replied: ayes, until the
breeching broke; then l thought it was time
for me to stir" Every school.boy will readily
recall to mind the fable of Ksop, wherein it is
related of a countryman, whose cart-wheels got
stuck in the mud, calling upon Jupiter for as
sistance. "First put your shoulder to the
Wheel" cried Jupiter; "the gods help those
who try to help themselves We commend
Il csc examples to the pious A,gus.
