the Constitution of the United States, in des
piee of the plighted faith that exists between
all the States, she takes our arsenals, our forts
our custom-houses, our mint, with about q
| million dollars. Gracious God! to what arc
we coming? Is it thus that the Constitution
of the United States is to be violated? Forts,
arsenals, custom-houses, and property belong
| ing to all the people of all the States, have
been ruthlessIy seized, and their undisturbed
possession is the sum total of the great wrongs
that have been inflicted upon Louisiana by
the United States.
Mr.. President, when I look at the conduct
of some of the States, am reminded of the fa-
bic of King Log and the Frogs. They got tired
of the log that lay in their midst, upon which
they could bask in the sun, or from which
they could dive to the depth beneath, without
interference. And these seeding States have
got tired of the Federal Government, which
has been so profitable to them, and loathe the
blessings which they enjoy. Seemingly, its
inability to take care of itself created their Op
position to it. 1t seems, the inability of the
United States to defend and fake care of its
own property, has been an invitation to them
to take possession of it and like the frogs,
they seek substitute for ther log. They
prayed to Jupiter, the supreme deity, to send
them another king, and he answered their
prayer by sending them stork, who soon de
voured his subject frogs. There are storks,
too, in tine seeding States South Crrolina
has her stork king, and 50 has Louisiana. In
the heavy appropriations they are making to
maintain armies and in all their preparations
for war, for which there is no cause, they find
they have brought down storks upon them
that will devour them

Secession from seoadars.

Secession is a policy capable OF wider appli-
cation than the Secessionists themselves in
tended.
There are signs that, rather than be taken
out of the Union, Northern Alabama will Sc
cede from Southern Alabama, Northern Geor-
gia from Southern Georgia, Western Virginia
from Eastern Virginia, North Carolina from
South Carolina, and the Western half of
Maryland from the Eastern shore. Unhappily
for the success of Secession, many of the Sc
ceding States are separated by national bar
riers of mountains and rivers, and that portion
Of each which lies in the great valley of the
Mississippi and Ohio prefers to cast its for
tunes with its loyal neighbors Of the Interior
rather than the disloyal Traitors along the
coast Of the Atlantic and the Gulf.
When the Secessionists undertake to lord it
over these regions, as they do "along shore y
when they begin TO rob, to ostracise, to gag
to subiugite, under reign of terror, all who
are loyal to the Union, they will be in danger
of "Civil War" not with the 'Blaclz Repub-
licans," but with their own kith and kin, on
the soil Of their own State.

How it Works So Far--sweet Fruits
Rebellion.

South Carolina has long hecn reaching af
ter the apple secession. 1t has at last pluck
cd ii, and finds it turning to ashes on the lip
A Charleston letter to the Tribune gives the
following stubborn facts:
From the inclosed official Custom IIuusc
report, you viii perceive that the shipping.
from Dec. 30, 1860, to Jan, 81, 1861, was
only l4I, against 269 same period in the pre-
ceding year the cash duties received at the
port declined from 100000 to $4,000, and
the value of foreign export from $3,0O0900
to 100000! The publication of this fearful
state of things, and the melancholy letter of
Mr. Colcock, the Collector of the rehelious
port have produced today the utmost con
sternation. Several of the corn factors pro-
pose to remove their business to another port,
and the results of the folly of the Secession
list leaders begin TO fill the minds of the peo-
pie with dismay. 1t is confidently predicted
that we are on the eve of a reactionary move
ment against the Secessionists and although
the knowledge of this latent feeling of indig-
nation against them, may drive them to a des
pcrate measure Of aggressive warfare, it is
said that the current Of reaction, if once fair
ly set in, will sweep the State, as irresistibly,
as that of Secession month ago The
Rhett men in their last brief term of exist
cncc, gasp for breath to utter vile calumnies
against the North, and to iniame the mind

ejaculations are only noteworthy a peculiar
form of death-rattIe in vogue among morbid
rebels. The farce at Montgomery opens un-
der the most lugubrious auspices. and it is
feared there that Cobb, one of the least re-
spected men in the ranks of the Socessionisis,
will be permitted TO pronounce the doom Of
that illflted body. l fully confirm my report
of day before yesterday, about the increasing
misgivings in regard to the loyalty to rebel
lion of the other Southern States, and about
the growing feeling that South-poor little
South Carolina- soon stand alone in her
glory, as well as in her shame.

g. Remember them not in thought merely, but
in deeds. They are our sacred charge. The
poor ye have always with We. Keen searching
winter is upon us, and laps his icy hand on the
starving poor. Added 10 the rigOrs of the
season are the afliction of money panic
They need shelter, clothing, food, fuel, and
above all sympathy. Alas that the human
sympalhies should stiffen and deaden in such
time. The manufacturer discharges his help.
The merchant curtains his expenses. The in
dependent wrap their possessions around their
hearts aud smother their noble impulses. Hun
dreds cf genial souls freeze into stolid indiE
ference upon a financial pressure. The con-
sequences are that thousands are driven to
crime How sharp the conflict of a sensitive
nature, when starvation and beggary frown
him in the face How keen the remembrance
of better and happier days How biting the
approaches of their more fortunate brethren
What if they have been improvident! Is
chat the terrible school in which economy is
taught! Shall we deny them our symPathies!
We pity even the hardened criminal. Even
our Justice is tempered with mercy. Think
of their trials, their sufferings! Think of
their humanity and destiny.
We have within a week met with such
touching cases of abiect poverty as caused our
very heart TO bleed. Young men and young
women, once happy in their bright homes,
now wandering like outcasts, honest, industri-
ous; intelligent, yet crushed by load of mis-
fortune; some among them so timid and SEN
sitive as vainly to attempt to hide the neces-
sitv, wearing the meekest countcnances while
the stomach was craving for food their very
respectability bar to their sustenance. No
work, no money none to be had
Willing hands and trusty hearts, yet hardly
able to keep soul and body together. A
struggle for existence indeed Pity for their
hard lott Pity for poor shivering humanity.
Omen and Christians o parents and chill
drenl o citizens and brethren, listen to the
words of your Lord: "1'hou shalt love thy
neigbbor as thyself" We conjure you by
your holy religion to remember that Faith
without works is dead > they are the test oi

the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering
gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temper

the first object that met her gaze as she look

noise in the closet. Harry had evidently got
tired of his constrained position, and was
stirring round little
" 1t must be the cat" said Kitty hurriedly.
