NEW YORK CORREsPONDENCE.

| artists painters, musicians, scuptOrs and SIGH"
have received politicians, pestfcrOua persons who
would talk abOnt the inaugural and Lincoln. The
-" inaugural" " has been the only topic of the week.
It has killed of the theaters Forrest playing J0ch
CWlc to S!25 net receipts, and Miss Cu1hman
doing Meg McTHirS to positively empty benches.
People are perpeXcd with the inaugural don't
know what to make Of it, and altogether pretty
nearly scared to death. D)cs he mean, they say,
| to invade the Southern States? No. he means to
collect the revenue from ships outside the ports.
Very well; how can he do that without the cuope-
ration of consignccs? And if the consignccs don't
choose to cooperate, the goods must be landed
and sent to the public store. They can't be for
feited without legal proceedings before inry.
This is what the inaugural means: First, that
| the President will DO everything in his power to
cOercc the South. and, second, that he has no
| power to do anything whAtcVcr. It is q very grave
| question: whether or not he has t e right to use
the army and Eavy against the seeding States,
| and the moment that he proceeds to do 50, great
| many officers will resign. 1t il understood that
Colonel Lay. General Ssott's al-de-camp, threw
| up his commission. rather than be a party to any
| military operations against the South. Colonel
| Law is VirgniAn. first rate officer, was Military
| Secretary to General scott in Mexico, and fought
side by side, in the streets Of Monterey. with the
gallant Buter. The survivors of that ti@ht do not
need to be reminded that George Lays pluck is
ununcsonabIc In New York, the pro-Southern
feeling is immensely strong. 1t is declared on all
hands that if the new Government is equal to It's
Responsibilities it should rcc0gnN" the admhI1trH-
ton Of the southern fDnicdcracy pro teupore, and
| moderate fcpuhcans declare that the very best
thing the President conl1 do would b" to withdraw
the troops from Forts Sumter and l'ickens. and
then proceed TO n"Eoiiat" People are not IN the
habit Of talking about peace with arms pointed at
each others hearts.
