of the seeding school, derived great satisfaction
from the Indifference Of SOutherners to that

superiority. We quote few sentences from this
pharisaic disquistiOn:
Tbe people Of the Southern States deeply interested In

NEGRO PLOTS.

Columbia, S. c., is just now enjoying one OF
the predicted results of Secession and civil war;
in the shape of plot, real or apprehended, on
the part of the slaves. A dispatch from that city
says
This plot was exposed by Of the negroes and white
who /. pcated Is to be hung examined
ana all nos.;ble Testimony elected The event has created
good deal Of alarm among inbabian and especially among
the women upon the plsntaions.
The white st0De-cutter, whose pending fate Is
thus coolly foreshadowed, without any OF those
little formaties Of Judge and Jury which are
deemed essential in other parts of the world to
the proprieties Of hanging, is doubtless North
ern man, for of course no genuine SOutherner
ever degrades himself by cutting stone, except
ON compulson and when he has the misfortune
TO be detained in some public institution like that
at Sing Sing. We presume and hope that the
alleged plot is altogether imaginary, but in such
n society as that Of South Carolina the
bare apprehension of instruction Is dire
calamity from the horrible alarm 1t creates
in every household. The condition OF
sayeholding community, in such state Oh
fear, can scarcely be conceived by those
accustomed only to the peace and security Of
free and civilized States. Jefferson aud John
Randolph long ago depicted it in language whose
vivid and terrible eoquence has become classic
in our literature. Those who have witnessed
such a crisis are well aware that its nature Is
feeby expressed by the trite comparison OF sleep
ing on n volcano or in powder magazine. Its
horrors fall with peculiar severity On those least
able TO endure them, on women, and on the
sick. the nervous and the timid. Columbia, at
this moment, il, as it were, in state OF siege
The fighting men have gone to Charleston to
attack Fort Sumter, and, for some weeks past,
as We learn from private letters, latent dread
Of the negroes has forced the few able.bodled
men remaining in the town to arm themselves
and turn out OF night to patrol the streets
This state Of things must, Of course,
90 on increasing in intensity so long as the pres
ent troubles continue The warlihe aud rebel
lious spirit cannot long agitate the whites with
out producing a corresponding and sympathetic
movement among the blacks. If the one race
rises in arms for 3" liberty" how can the other
be expected to remain passive The danger be-
comes infinitely greater from the fact which the
negro cannot fail soon TO learn, that when his mas
ter talks about fighting for Liberty lac means
Slavery. and that the contest is really about h'm
and bis right to Freedom

Is it true that third party is arising in our
politics, TO be called the Concession Party If
here is to be such party and it is certainly
not impossible, il will aim, no doubt, to hold a
middle position between the Republican and the
Democratic parties, but must, in the nature OF
the case direct its efforts to destroy the first and
give aid and comfort to the second. For our part,
we propose still to remain faithful to the doc
trnes of the platform, and likewise to the spirit
of the Republican party. We go with ABRAHAM
LINCOLN. for the Union, the Constitution, and
the enforcement of the Laws; and With SALMON
p. CHASE, who says that his motto is "lnaugu-
ration first, Adjustment aiterward;' and with
HENRY CLAY, who said that " no earthly power
:" could induce him to vote for specific measure
" for the introduction Of Slavery where 1t had
" not before existed" No matter how large or
how small the Concession party may prove to be,
we shall endeavor still to follow the Republican
flag, and contend for Republican principles

The debate in the State Assembly on Wednes-
day upon the Robinson resolutions brought out
Mr. Hutchins of New-York, Democratic meui-
Der from the XIYth District. Mr.. III. made one
of the stock speeches Of the PERIOD IN which
Charles H., Cromwell, Rome, George H., oil
took an appropriate part There was nothing
worthy of remark in this, 80 far but in his pc
roration Mr.. Hutchns appealed to the House "in
behalf OF the loaded warehouses Of New-lork,
" the merchant ships rotting at the wharves, the
streets in which grass was beginning Ia s'"'"I"
and .I.O tn Uenan OF the population generally,
most of whom he represented as in a starving
condition. The orlsin-..lr and boldness Of these
views may rally cause some to inquire with
interest ,"hO Mr.. Hutclins is. Referring TO u
iayorably drawn sketch published just before the
election, We are not surprised to learn that he il
young man, recently graduated at Columbia
% College" or that he is ga novice in politics.
We read without especial interest that he is q
years Of age, having :" smooth, fair face Tree
from the appearance of care or anxiety and
that he has spent several years abroad. With
astonishment we discover that he is "a persOn
" Of good education" with commiseration for the
reading public that he once cOrrcsDnnra.eed with
"a weekly paper" and with apathy that
be "bas the support Of the men Of 60
" cial standing" in his district. 1t would
be too cruel TO forbid all play to the brilliant
IMAGINATION of Nj. Hutchins, and he shall be
allowed to have his "iC.aded warehouses;" he
may even enjoy his picture on the merchant
ships rotting at the wharves;" but '"e DO posi-
lively object to his rushing the season-if he VIII
permit the unpublished phrase-so far as to make
the grass grow in our streets ,at this inclement
period. This flower of speech is little too for
ward to be put forth in the rural district of Al
bany. When one reads of Mr Hutchins's face,
" free from the appearance of care, and com
pares the phrase with his reported remarks, one
cannot help thinking that several words ought to
have been saved by calling it vacant couu-
tenance at once. If, as we have not seldom
heard, he who causes two blades to spring where
was only one before is to DO rewarded, what
guerd0n too magnificent for Mr.. Hutchlns, at
whose bidding a full crop of grass grows in the
ice-bound streets of the metropolis Perhaps a
hardly commensurate reward, but yet one most
appropriate would be to present to him for his
seasons fodder the hay which might be made
from this untimely growth. One thing is fortu-
nate: there will not be enough to make tco bun
dies, and Mr.. Hutchins will not be obliged to go
hungry between them. However strong the sup
port of these men of social standing may be it
will be well for the recent graduate Of Columbia
College to bride his tongue; lest making one too
many of his characteristic speeches, his consttn'
cnts turn him forth to Craze in his own field
thereby literally leaving bin "out in the cold

two very interesting and remarkable letters, one
of them written from Charleston more than
year ago, to mercantile house in Paris, ad-
vising them of the approaching formation Of a

posed advantages to France Of such step. This
letter proves that rebellion was plotted long be-
fore the election, and even before the nomination
of Mr. Lincoln. The second letter is dated Nov.
