Secession Scripture

The telegraph relates that the bust of
John G. Calhoun, who has been placed
at the right hand of the Pre- esident's
chair in the South Carolina Secession
Convention bears the following perver.
sion of Scripture: -.
ys" That which is written, execute quick
ly, the day is far spent, the night is at
hand" .as afEa7 -
Upon which the Cincinnati Conn.,
naerciaL remarks that" This reading the
Bible backwards is quite in character
for those who are taking long step to.
wards the dark ages. South Carolina
piety has seeded from the established d
reading. which Is: " The night is far
spent, the dayis st hand.'',
No wonder. They are fulfilling
another Scripture. which says: g Ye love
darkness rather than light, because your
deeds are evil" eds Es
And while we are upon the Scriptures,
it is as well to observe that the first part
of the above motto. g That which is writ
ten, execute quickly" is the secession-
lists gloss of the words Of Jesus to Judas
Iscario' on the night he betrayed him
Z" That thou doest,' do quickly"
And, as if to complete the parallel. the
Scripture goes on: /: Judas, then, having
received the sop. ment Immediately out:
and it was night"
When traitors quote Scripture. how
curiously it is that they proyiden:ially
stumble on Judas Iscariot.

The quiet village OF Midland City was
the scene Of considerable excitement one
day last week. It appears that certain
gentleman Of the town had been in the
habit of speaking disrespectfully Of GER
tain ladies. which brought down the ire
Of the fair sex, and they firmly resolved
upon vengeance. They accordingly met.
and six af them with whips in hand pro,
ceeded to the gentleman's place of bust

We understand the community are very
much upon the side of the ladies who
thus vindicated their own character.

THE CONFERENCE,

A Conference called together by Vir.
ginia of Commissioners from large
number of States is new in session at
Washington, and it is said that the South
ern Convention for the formation Of a
Southern Confederacy has adjourned to
await the result of the deliberations OF
the former. TIE revolutionary storm
will be suspended, we presume. until
something is known Of the probable ac-
ton Of the Conference.

Who will we Compromise With.


The dsunionists do not propose to
agree to any compromise, no matter what
its te,ms-pay. more, they utterly repudi
ate and spurn the very idea of compro-
mise. They claim that they have the
right to dissolve tlis Uuion and they
have determined 10 do so; and while they
are quietly performing the reasonable
work, we are told by men in our-m midst,
that if the Republicans would just agree
to reasonable compromise these men
would desist in the execution Of their
unholy designs. The people of the North
are willing to do anything consistant with
honor to preserve the Union, but what
can they do when tie disunionists re-
ject all their overtures and propositions
for compromise. aer
We have before US the Wire Grass
Reporter. published in Thomasyille, Geor-
gia, by a gentleman for whom we eLter
tain the kindlest sentiments of esteem
and regard, and who is the uncle Of our
better half, from which we make the
foil owing extract:

WHERE JOHN CAREY STANDS.

Considerable curiosity having been ex-
pressed by some Of our Democratic
friends, as to the views Of our Represent
ative on the question now before the
people, we publish the following extracts
from letter written by him, dated Jan.
90:
Mr.. Crittenden's PROPOSE
ton is nothing more nor less than the
Breckinridge platform in disguise. and
its object is to have constitutional righ,
acknowledged in Congress to protect
slavery in the Territories by legislation
and to make it certain that freedom shall
never 60 south of Sc 80. Then the ac-
QUESTION of Mexico, Central America
and Cuba follows, and after this is ac-
complshed, the Southern States will So
cede, and X southern confederacy be for.
med.
The committee Of 80 have proposed
that we shall give guarantees that We
will behave ourselves, that we must no
say naughty things of slavery, and tha
New Mexico must be admitted as state
unasked for and before she is able to de
fray the expens of a state government
with a population of 10000, and o
that number only 5000 white, the res
being mixture Of Poems, Indians anG
Spaniards, and most of them semi sava'
ges.
What is to be done? The fro-eater
assert that they will accept of no com
promise that does not concede the righ
Of secession, others will accept Of n,
compromise that Congress can mako. 4
few of the Border men want someth:n;
to stand on 10 enable them to fight tn
Southern extremeites, but all agree tha
concessions must come from the Republi
cans.
Now l will say to you what l say t
everybody: when i am convinced tia
the Republican party has violated am
constitutional right OF the South. East
or West, then, and not till then, will
make concession in word, deed or act
1t is as much our duty to legislate 70
posterity as it is for ourselves.
Can arrogance be made more insu tia:
than in this demand for concessions
when we have not had the control {
Government fer one moment, and can
not have for some time to come, Will
they have had the entire control for eigh
years. -.--. -s... f

A GOOD MOVE.

A bill is about to pass Congress dis
continuing all ports of entry in South
Carolina and other States where the col
lection Of revenue has been interfered
with. This will obviate collision be-
tween the traitors and the U. S. Gov
ernmert for a considerable time, unless
they should attack fort Sumter, which
they are now threatening.

The Republican Doctrine.

The doctrine OF the Republicans with
regard to slavery is tersely stated by Mr..
Sherman as follows:
Il believe that Slavery is local insti.
tuition, municipal in its character, pro-
tected by State laws, having rights ex'
clusively within those States, having no
rights beyond those States, except the
right to recapture fugitives who escape
from service. Believing. as l do. that
that is the correct construction Of the
Constitution, l never will. whatever may
be the consequences. vote far PROPOSE
ton to establish, protect, or uphold Sla.
very anywhere on Gods eartL.''

The Ohio Legislature.

Nothing of general Importance has
transpired in this very honorable body
since our last. with very fine prospect
that nothing will be done. The Lesisla-
ture Of this State is an interesting insti-
tuition generally. and it does not seem to
make much difference what party is in the
ascendency.

CAssIUs NJ. CLAY.

The New FORK Tribune. in speaking Of
the late Washington speech of Cassius
M. Clay, in which that gentleman favored
the admission of New Mexico as State,
with or without slavery, as its people
shall elect, and with certain other fea
lures. says: tf asa
We regret exceedingly that the rel-
ance which we have been wont to place
on the courage and .Jfrmness of the Ken
tuckifn, aoas not aoeN founded, and that
in this greatest and / st of the struggles
between Freedom, and Slavery he yields,
and gives way, and inclines to compro-
mise.
That is said Of Cassius NJ. Clay. whose
body is Scared all over, net by paper
bullets and goose>quill thruets, but by
leaden bullets and cold steel thrusts re-
ceived in the cause Of Freedom e. 1t IS
an easy m after for an editor to talk about
courage and frnness in Free State
where syllable uttered in favor of sla-
very would cost him his subscription list,
but it is another species Of courage that
ustains man who goes out Of his house
Sin the morning to his days work IN fa
vor Of Freedom in Slave State, with the
chances in favor Of his being returned to
his wife and children a corpse.
That's So.
The Louisville Journal, after referring
in particular to the return of the slave
Lucy to her master, from Cleveland, and
in general to the prompt execution Of the
Fugitive Slave law in Ohio, Indiana aad
Illinois. goes on to tell the Slave States
some forcible truths, as follows:
But how will it be if the Disunionists
succeed in making the Ohio river the di-
viding line between slaveholding and a
non -slaveholding Confederacy2 --
After the annihiliation of the fugitive
slave law by such separation, would
the Northern Confederacy under any cir
cumstances pass another? Would there
be. could there possibly be. rendition Of
a solitary fugitive from Ohio. Indiana.
Illinois, or any other free State? Would
not every fugitive be as secure in every
free State as he is now in Canada or
Great Britain? When this should be the
case, would there not be general rush
along the whole eight hundred miles Of
the Kentucky shore for the opposite
shore? Would shore police of even
five thousand men suffice to arrest the
black rush? Would not Kentucky be to
all intents and purposes drained Of slave
ry in six months by stampedes even if
war should not hasten the result? And
would not the fate Of Kentucky be the
fate of Missouri and Virginia aud Mary
land? se
All these questions are easily answered.
TIE cotton States are rushing forward
with rash and blind precipitancy. utterly
and criminally needless of all the ruin
they are aiming to bring upon Sta.es
greater and more important than them
selves.

An Old Case with New Application

An Old Case with a New Application.
1t is recorded that once on time a
Fox, in his search for spoils, was unfor
tunately curtailed Of bis cuadal extremity,
and deeming such condition as prej ju-
dicial to his standing and influence in the
Reynard family, he proposed to his fcl-
lows that similar clipping would very
much improve the appearance of their
persons. This point was urged with all
the arguments that his proverbial cum
ming, stimulated by a desperate case.
would suggest, but without any satisfac-
tory result, so far as the record shows.
Reynard's unhappy case fnts close
parallel in that of Mr.. Douglas and bis
party friends. The recent election has
most effectuaiIy deprived them of all hope
of further benefit from their "great
principle" and left them the fit subjects
Of ridicule. They now come to the Re-
publicans that they shall abandon the
principles which have been endorsed by
the people, in order to keep company
with those whose principles have been
condemned. Having no principles left
to contend about, they wauld no doubt
like 20 see tie Republicans in the same
condition. But they cannot be accommo.

The Case Plainly Stated.

In his excellent speech in the House

and predominant question which is now
before the country with remarkable
point aud c,earness, We quote his Ian

all the rights it secures to us, and all the
hopes we base upon it. upon the whim or
will of single State, then. indeed. is the
wisdom of our fathers the wisdom OF
babes. We can no longer talk about the
weakness of the old confederacy or anar-
chy OF Mexico. Sir, we owe 1t as the
most sacred of duties to put down this
heresy. II it now fortifes itself by sec
