THE New PosT OFFIcE.--Thousands OF
persons yesterday visited the new Post Of
fee The first letters aud papers were de-
livered in the new Government building
yesterday. The structure and all its ar
engagements are greatly admired by every
body. Everything is complete and has a
finished and durable appearance. At the
old Post Office Mrs Thompson still "kolds
forth" with her news stand. Authority is
expected to be given her to occupy a space
in the new office. 1t would be a great con-
venience to the public if she should be per
mitted 10 have a corner in the new building,
and it would save the Department the cost
of a clerk who will necessarily be employ

public would be grati6ed TO have q news

there have been some bad tenants. A num-

issue. The South is conscious of its strength:
ifSpeople are high-spiriied, and will not cow
er before the menaces OF the North, however
formidable. Therefore the talk of coercion
concentrates aud develops the spirit of Sc
cession. while the opposite course would d.
minish the supposed necessity of armed re-
sistance, and give opportunity for the friends
of the Union there to rally. Without doubt,
large numbers of true men in the North,

Awakin2 at Last,

We sre glad to see that leading
republican journals are at last realizing
the true condition OF affairs at the South
They have, heretofore, deceived them
selves with the idea that the secession
of States was only part Of plan 10
bring the North to terms. and if it failed, the
seeded States would reiuIn to the Uuieu
and become loyal to it again. They have
now discovered the mistake. and realiz the
fact that secession, instead Of a scart-CrOw.
Is an earnest movement, aud that they must
contemplate the contingency of a dismem-
bered confederacy. Conscious of the dau-
gers which impend, they are very properly
rebuking threats of coercion. For the good
of the country. it is pity they did not soon
er discover their error. But they may yet re-
cover from its effects. if they will, now they
see things as they are, set manfully 10 work
to restore confidence and amicable relations
between the suudered sections, aad treat the
people of the South with the kindness and
forbearanee which should ever Distinguish
the controversies of brothers Of the same
household.
The seeded States are now engaged in the
formation of a government for their protec-
ton. However much the doctrine of seces-
sion may be denied, it would be absurd to
declare that those States are not, as far as
they have gone, in d state of successful revo-
luton. No power on earth can compel them
to resume their allegiance TO the Union They
have gone so far that they would prefer an-
Inhalation to compulsory Observance of an
allegiance once disc Abuse and mis-
representation cannot change their purpose.
They may be approached through the laws OF
kindness. They are open TO the convictions
of reason. They may be satisfied 10y fair and
manly discussion that it will be 10 their in
terest to retFace their steps, the enjoyment of
their constitutional rights having been guar
antied to them. For The future, let those |
who would restore these States to the Union |
remember and observe these facts
