The Louisville Democrat on
the Crisis.

We copy at random the following nara
graphs from the Louisville Democrat Of last
Saturday:
What rights could we secure by secs
sion? BY declaring war, in short, against
the United States? To support such a war
might be incoavenient. We might invite
an army Of invasion, and could not COM
plain if it came. Il might be much larger
than comfortable and on our immense
border it might land at the wrong place.
If it were kentucky's fight: if she had
made it; if it had not been against her re-
monstranee, she would be ready FIR it. and
not fail to meet it; but we don't feel the
obligation to fight ether peoples battles.
The position of Kentucky must be main
tanned. In the madness Of the hour two
hostile sections, without reflection, are arm.
ing to attack one another. Ii we can keen
them each from our borders, we may hope
for permanent peace. If we throw ours
selves into the arms Of either, we bring
about bloody and pro.racted war.
The beginning Of peaceable secession we
have seen the end is to come as certainly
as the beginning. Where will the RIGHTS
and honor be when the bloody struggle is
overf Are they not all put at hazard p
We most earnestly counsel peace and de-
liberation. Take no part in lawlessness of
any sort. nor allow it. We are innocentof
this conflict, and honor does not REQUIRE of
us to bear any of its evils.
We see that reckless mon are urginr re-
Inducements to be sent to aid the South =
We trust every able bodied man will reflect
for one moment that it will take every able
bodied man 10 the State to protect our-
selves, and that We cannot expect aid from
the Southern States, which will have enough
to do to protect themselves. Tie citizsn's
first duty is to protect his home aud : side
his wife and children.

The New York Tribune, New York
Times, Chicago Democrat, Chicago Tribune,
aud other leading Republican papers, are
denouncing President Lincoln in the most
malignant terms. because he does not march
an army into the South, and commence the
work of extermination. And some of these
Journals are abusing the President and
calling upon him to resign, because he does
not get up instructions among the negroes
in the border, or neutral States, and set
them to numbering the women and chill
dren.
We have too much confidence in the wis
dom and patriotism of Mr.. Lincoln to be-
leve that he will be driven from duty by the
abuse and calumny of journaIs of tho New
York Tribune stripe. He viii! preserve the

enough to sicken the heart. Talk about
the barbarity OF the Turks, the Indians, the

shudders at the thought. Four millions of

presence in the North would be almost
equally appalling. We trust thatthe Gov
