The New Year.

The people of the United States-for we
cannot yet bring our mind, or tongue, or pen
to saw, the people Of the United States and S.
Caroina-wlll enter upon the Perilous and un-
developed future of the ensuing year with the
most sensitive concern and anxiety as to what
its course may evolve, and its close present to
our experience. All is uncertain, aud cOnjec-
ture is totally at eut in any attempt TO out
line, even, the possible consequences OF the
sad, aIrange, unnatural rupture Of our political
Union. Never has there been nation upon
the face of the globe so kindly dealt with by
the Hand of Providence in all things as ours.
From the beginning, men could scarcely fail to
discern the directing, shielding, approving su-
perylsou Of a Power Divine, in our historical
career. While our beautiful and vas. territory
has leemcd with prosperity, and nurtured into
unexampled dignity and power nation OF
freemen And in the very midst Of all our
greatness, the meddling and mlschlevous hand
of desolatlon has been thrust into the very
heart OF the land, as it were, TO wreslle with
Cop and His goodness, and to crush, despoll
and eject the blessedness He has bestowed upon
US.
Yet, with all the evils that fanaticism and
folly may possibly challenge, we have conf
dence-uabr, ken, cheerful confidence, in the
spf;cency and perpetuiy of the great under
lying principles on which the republic is based.
Aud although we enter upon the untried for
tunes of irowning future, We cherish the as
surance that the elements of popular intelli-
ge"ct, sovereignty and patriotism will survive
TO the reconstruction and adjustment of a ma
tlouality entire as our territory, and glorious
as the renown of free people can possibly
make il.
Let US then at the threshold Of New Year
offer to our readers the words of encourage
ment ard hope, with the assurance worthy
alone of free people, that the fature of the
nation may be glorious and honorable, as they
may choose to make it. Every individual
must contribute of the quality and virtue, in
tegrIIy and patriotism Of his own character to
the universal good. For the excelIencies of
the nation are only the aggregate of the excel
leneies Of the man. C,mmending TO our read
ers tic highest regard for their obligations
and res, ,bllity, in crisis like this which
low bOyers about u.s. we wish them all happi-
Ress and prosperity in the ensuing year.
