Some Of the Black Republicans North are conscl-
ing themselves, with the course Tennessee pursued
in the late election in voting down the Convention
and are looking upon our State being ready tosub-
NIT and fall into Abraham's bosom. They now are
rather showing bragadocia and uneomprOmislng
spirit, and looks upon Tennessee as being decidedly
in favor Of coercion. In this think. any en-
tertaining any such hope IS very much mistaken in
Tennessee It IS true we have few clamerous,
COW ardly and cFoeking individuals who are for
whipping. hanging and subdueing the Southern
States But such are not so plenty as the north
may suppose. The volunteer State of Tennessee,
will not break down from her constitutional rights,
but viii act with caution and frmDess, and when
the worst comes to the worst and our equality ia
the Union fails to be granted Tennessee VIII then be
unit in demanding her rights with but few excep-
tons. Ii is towards who are always whipping
and hanging other people, by their threats such in
diyiduals the very last to fight in defence for
their rights and If they ever fall in the battle field
their back is the first place to search for the wound
Brave men never brag what they will do or make
big threats of hanging, &C., &c, towards 1lways
make the most fuss. We can assure old Abe and
his Black Republican host, that they need not con-
sole themselves that all Tennessee is with them. No
there are only few broken down Office seekers
and 1coulld bes, who for unconditional submis-
sion and coercion. Tennessee expects to, and VIII

Harvard College has sixteen buildings and four
Of these were erected before the American RevOlu-
ton, viz: Massachusetts HALL built in l71s-2O;
Holden Chapel, built in l744 Hollis Hall, built in
1762-63; and Harvard Hall, in 1894, to replace the
second Harvard Hall, destroyed by fire in January
of that year. It was stated, 4 short time ago, at
one of the daily prayer meetings in the Old
South Church, that seventy Of the undergraduates
Of this institution were members of the Evangeli-
cal churches, and that college and class prayer
meetings were regularly held by them.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING.

A large and respectable meeting of the
Democrats of Ferguson township was held
at the Broadway School House on Satur-
day the l4th inst. On motion, albert
YoUNG was called to the chair, and Wil>
liam Wise, John Campbell and Henry
Hook enbery Vice Presidents, and Daniel
Cooser and George Straw, Secretaries.
The following Democrats were selected
n committee TO draft resolutions George
M5Cracken, William Wise, George Straw,
+. Cortez Bell, Bernard Armstrong, Peter
Thompson and John ID. Miller, who, after
a short absence, reported the following:
Resolved, That we are opposed TO the
waging of war for tho abolition of Slavery
under the name and pretext of war for
the Union; believing, as we do, that it
will inevitably destroy the Union, and
bring the country 10 irretrieyable ruin.
Resolved, That we regard the cultivation
Of Sectional feelings and prejuuices, and
the formation of Sectional parties, as in
direct opposition to the wise coInsels of
the Father Of his Country; as tending di-
rcctly TO the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of our once
happy Union--to the rending asunder OF
our iralernal bonds-to the destruction of
the foundation on which our government
rests-and as the cause Of the present dis
tracted state cf affairs in this once happy
country.
Resolved, That the reconstruction OF the
Union by force, in view of the embit.ered
feeling and the hostility of the united
strength of eleven States, is in our opin-
ion an utter impossiblity and even if the
C,,yo, gbnn1J la o,,biunatnI ihnv
can be held to their allegiance only by
changing our government to an unlimited
monarchy and while pursuing this delu'
sion of reuniting the States by coercion, a
large standing army has been raised for
the purpose-the freedom of speech has
been abridged the right of the press been
suppressed, either by mob or some gov~
ernment officer The right of protection of
person by habedS corpus-the rights o! safe
ty in homes and property the right of
petition for redress OF grievances all these
constitutional rights on which our free
dom rests are being violated, we hope for
q speedy return to the time-honored ad.
ministration of the laws and the constitu-
tion.
Rcsohed, That we stand second TO none
in our love for the Constitution and our
estimate value of the Union, and we are
all ready and willing to sustain the Con-
stitution and the Government thereby ess
tablished throughout all time, if admins.
tered according to their true spirit.
Resolved That the several candidates
presented by the Democratic party TO fill
the several county offices 10 be voted for
at the October election, are men of strict
integrity, honest, capable and we'll calcu-
lated to discharge their duties with credit
10 the county and honor to themselves,

TnE TIMBER BUSINESS. ss.--Some unusually
wise Democrats in this region have discov-
erei an entirely new objection to honest
old Abe II lie is elected, say they, all
will be destroyed IN the stabil-
ity of the Union, the banks will all burst,
and tic price Of timber wiH go dozen! This is,
to say the least of it, childish. No man
in his sound senses will give it a serious
thought--it is too foolish and absurd. If
Lincons election has any effect at all on
the price of timber, it will be to raise it, as
there will be avery great demand FOR lumo
Der to build boats TO convey our Democrat
ic friends up Salt River. The prospect that
SUI dry Associate Judgeships, and other
county Offices, will have to change hands
shortly, we think is matter OF more so-
lictude to some of these sensitive howl.
ers, than the price of timber. In order,
however, TO show how uniounded aud
senseless this tslk about dissolution OF
the Union and panic amongst banks is,
we need only state that the new Govern
ment loan of Sl0,00O,000 was promptly
taken, on Monday a.week, at and above
par, by some Of the most judicious capit-
qlists in the Union. Every effort was made
by the Washington Con'ttton and other
Administration organs to injure the credit
of the county, by threats of dissolution
and appeals to the political prejudices of
the people. 1t does not look much like
n dissolution of the Union, when scores Of
capitalists come forward and exhibit their
anxiety to obtain the loans Of our Govern
ment, even at par; nor does il appear
reasonable that Lincoln's election will in .
jure the price of timber, when some OF the
seli-same Democrats who say so, offer their
timber at only 10 cents if Old Abe sue
ceeds, or will take the same price if Breck~
inridge is elected If they are scared so
bad, why should these fearful gentlemen
be so anxious TO go into the business this
winter at all Can any one Of thom ex-

ion with the national Democracy, [ be
longed to party that has always battled
for the Union, the Constitution and the
enforcement OF the laws; her doctrines
have been inscribed on her banners for
more than half "a century; the PRINCIPLES
upon which they are based are co-exist-
ent with the Republic itself; and have
no fears that she will ever (, tier or
turn back in her course as the champion
of freedom and the faithful guardian of
the rights OF the States and of the people.
| you should wonder, or any should
ask what my sentiments are on the oues-
ton Of prosecuting the war against tue se-
cedng States, let my post on the tented
field, within sound Of the insurgents can.
non, be my answer. While it is a war; let
it be prosecuted with vigor. Let patriot
ism awake and rally for the Government,
beneath the flag that our fathers adopted
and revered as their national emblem,
that it may ever wave as the emblem
OF united-not the monument of a dis
! membered Confederation. Let rebellion
feel the power and supremacy of the Gov.
ernment and the laws, but close no aven.
tie by which it may, the moment it sees
the folly, the suicidal madness of its re,
sistance 10 constitutional authority, re-
turn to its allegiance, that our distracted
country may be speedily restored TO trans
guilty and repose, and the SWORD once
more changed to the ploughshare. This
is but rational and christian.
OF the present National Administration
it becomes me 10 say but little. With the
party which placed it in power can have
neither sympathy nor afiiliation, but
am under command of its officers, and
owe it at least my respect. As the rep
resentative OF the Government TO which |
have sworn allegiance, yield it cheerful
otediance. The teachings os Democracy
would not sanction any other course, than
submission to the lawfully constituted aus
thority. And flrther, do not believe from
the evidences arouna me, that any inters
ference with the rights ofthe States or of
the citizens thereof, farther thNnthe usages
ofwar might Justify, is contemplated bv Mr.
Lincoln's administration in their effort TO
suppress the rebellion. Only this morn
ing read an order of Gen. McClellan's,
sending back to Maryland five fugitive
slaves which had escaped from their mas
ters. This, done at the national capital,
and under the eyes, or rather the noses,of
the heads Of the department, may safely
be taken as an evidence that they do not
mean to respond to the clamors of the
Tribme and its a5olitiondisciples demand
ing the determination of slavery every
where before a sword be sheathed.
But my letter has already been extend
ed far beyond my original intention and
will now conclude, by assuring you that if
] thought could do my friends justice,
or myself credit, it would have afforded
me great pleasure to have taken my
chance at the general election as one of
their candidates for Assembly; but as |
am convinced that could do neither
again respectfully decline offering myself
to the consideration of the special confer
ence. With the highest esteem, / remain
yours, de-, JAMES II. LARRTNER.
