parts of the United States where slavsr,

such in our county, to LINCoLN's speech At
Pittsburg, which will be found in anotber CO.

think it necessary to proclaim what the actu
of the incoming administration will be in re.
gard to the seeding states does deem it Dcu1.
bent to say emphaticaily that he does not intend
to be party to any fraud, and that to b
honest the Republican party must carry oa
in good faith the professions made in the Is,
canvass. Honest OLD ABE, does not apps
to see as plainly as some Of our politicians 4
necessity or consistency of winning batis
upon principle, and then in the flush Of yc2
ry, Surrendering everything for which the CO..
test was waged. He utters q noble sentingi
when he says: 1--WE would do neither nor
nor less than we gave the people reason 70
believe we would when they gave US tbef

are not to see the Republican party dghc't,

A WANT OF CoNsIsrENCY.-If there is one
prominent BREcKINRIDGE Democrat who stands
squarely up for the Constitution as " IS and
for the laws as they are we have not yet heard
of him. There are plenty who express their
readiness to support the Constitution after it
shall have been altered to conform to their Pc
culiar notions and so as to promote selfish
designs to make slavery the controlling ele-
ment in the politics of this country. These
same Democrats are eager to enforce the Fu-
gitive Slave Law and all other statutes where
by slavery can possibly be aggraudzed, but
they are not inclined to execute the laws
against Treason nor even against the whole
sale plundering of the Federal Treasury by
Buchansn's Cabinet

COOLING oFF.-Intellgence has been received
in Washington, which is considered reliable,
to the effect that Forts Sumter and Pickens
will positively not be attacked until after the
Inauguration of Mr.. LINCoLN,-aud not even
then, unless the inaugural address foreShadows
coercion, or an attempt shall be made to rein
force the garrison of those posts. The Gov
ernment is now in possession of adyiceS direct
from the south, through the arrival of the
special messenger recently dispatched thither
by the Treasury Department to make an effort
to save the revenue enters from seizure. He
is of opinion that all the States which have
seeded, with the exception, perhaps of South
Carolina, Will soon be back again in the Con-
federacy aud even sonth Carolina is likely to
return in the end The whole action Of the
Convention, at Montgomery, looks to a recon
struction.
