The Republicans are always quoting the Force
Bill of 1888, passed during the Administration of
Gen Jackson, as precedent for the violent force
measures thst they are now urging through the
Federal Congress, While more than initiating the
coercion of 1888, going infinitely beyond it, we see
no sigus that they intend to carry out the other
branch Of the programme CT 1888, which ting sqVs-
Gates of coercive measures then deemed essential
The Congress of 1888 passed, Simultaneously, q
compromise measure, which, in efeet, guaranteed
all that the disSfected State of South Csfolins
asked, with another law, which, in & contingency,
conferred upon the President power OF coereive
CHARACTER. The two lsws-the compromise and CO.
ercion-Wsut through Congress together, and were
signed by President jackson on the same day.
Now, if the Republican majority in Congress will
pass liberal compromise, asking concessions to
the South, they will be placed ia position to claim
the BENEFIT Of the precedent of 1885, but not eiher-
wise. The statesmen of that dsy-tthe Congress Of
that tine-yoEid pot even enter upon a contest
with a single State until they had exhausted all
measures Of compromise and congestion. The
Congress of 1867 must dc the same, or its force
bills will to have any moral force or eject

From dispatches to the Cincinnati Gazette:

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The Peace Conference had
harmonious session to-day. All the attempts
made yesterday to amend the report Of the commit
tee, were voted down, except one moved by Rever-
dy Johnson, to make the reports of the proposed
settlement with reference to the Territorial ques-
tou, applicable alone to existing territory, which
was adopted, only Maryland of the slaveholding
States voting for it. The Conference viii before
Friday, without doubt, agree upon plan of settle
ment to be acted on by Congress, which will prove
acceptable to the border States.

Reaction In Florida.

A recent letter from Jacksonville, Flor.
ida, to a gentleman in New York says. =
Secession, so rampant when we arrived
here in December. is clearly in it's de.
scending node. The custom house has
begun 10 collect duties for the State of
Florida. otherwise there appears on the
surface no evidence Of State Government.
The Presidents Inaugural made a little
excitement, but even that seems to have
died away. Union mer are as thick as
hops here in Jacksonville, though this
is the hot bed of secession in East Flori-
da. One OF the principal men in the place
told me to-day that if an election were
held in the State, two thirds Of the votes
would be found on the Union side, How
ever this may be, am satisfied by my
own observation that the fever is dying
out very rapidly, and unless some speedy
'stimulant be applied, there is great danger
of resulting syncope The Union men
here scout the idea Of any danger to the
Union feeling resulting from the rein
forcement OF the forts. The lines are fast
being definitely drawn, and most men are
for the one government or tho other,
squarely and implicitly. The Union men
publicly avow their sentiments, and l
think little time only is wanted TO en-
able them to carry all before them in this
State.

Di.sens,on. .r,he Seces.ion

We have already published extracts from
the August (Ga.) Constitutionalist, the
Jackson MissiSsippian, and other leading
papers in the Cotton Safes, complaining
Of the non-submission OF the permanent
Constitution Of the Southern Conlederacv
to popular vote. The Vickshnrg Wing
copies the editorial remarks of the latter
paper, the following sentence of which
we for second time produce:
There is no way Of evading the premi
ses we have assumed; hence the conclu. i.
sion at which we have arrived is una
voldable, viz: That the Constitution for
the Permanent Government, before Miss
lssippi becomes party to the comnact,
mast be submitted directly to the vOte ofMe
people Of Tie State. If it is not done, t e
question Of the right afalhe peopls ta form
their own Government, NAV require prac
tical solution, before the new ord is ful.
ly established. They will not old tn m.
selves bound by Government witch
they will have had no hand IN .reating
To the above the Vicksburg Wing sp
pends the following remarks.
Truly does our corempor ry remark,
that the people "DiH mot hold themselves
bound by Government Oh,ch they hove la
no hand in creating" We think H.. peo.
pie have been too long ignore air, ady.
But far be it from Us TO urge any oIjec

considered caprious. We now insist with

must come from the directly expressed
will Of the people, through the ballot box
The structures of our ueiGhbor upon the
"wretched botchwork' OF tie Convention
as exhibited in .he extracts from the Or.
dinsnce it quotes, are perfectly proper, as
they are contradictory and delusge. But
we do not think it was tn design of the
Convention to have the 'tion Of the Mont.
gomery Congress submitted to them, in
opposition to submission to a vote of this
people. On the contrary, from repeated
conversations with members Of the State
Convention on this SUI ject, We are led tc
the belief that il was their intention tc
have the permanent Government sent
back to the State Convention, and by il
submitted to the popular voice. How.
ever this may be, it is a matter of para
mount importance that thers should be

A Rebuke.

The Southern Union papers admins.
ter some wholesome rebukeS to North.
ern doughface editors at times, which
should shame them into the adoption Of
a decent course. Here is one from the
Louisville Journal to the Courier also
published at Louisville which will a2-
ply nicely 10 the disunion organs about
here. Read it.
If there mad been any difficulty as to
the real meaning of Lincoln's inaugural,
it Is plainly interpreted by the Black Re
publicans. They construe it into the a
vowal Of a crafty policy for the suhjuga-
tion Of the South, and are in ecstaces
over it, Courier.
We have looked over the face OF the
waters with anxious gaze to see if the del
age of Misrepresentation was not subsi
ding. We have yet TO find paper which
proposes the sujugation Of the South, or
one which is in ecslac;es over Mr.. Lin.
coins inaugural as the avowal of such a
policy. But our moody neighbor OF the
Courier sees everything through his pre-
JUDGES. He takes savage delight in
gritting his teeth hard, pulling his hair,
and fancying that he is terribly abused
and the South with him. Even while
the eastern skies seem bright with as
surances of blessed peace, he frets and
growls and won't be comforted. Why
such man as hs now permits bimsel
to appear, would have wrung the neck Of
tho dove when it brought the olive leaf tc
the ark, because it showed that the waters
were abating from off the earlh.-Loais

Parson BrownlOw and the GOvernOrshIp
of Tennessee.


Parson Brownlow announces himself q
candidate for The Goveruorship Of Tenne'
ssee looking to the "uubOught and unter-
rifed people of the State" for election. He
says he stands ly the Union, the Consti.
tuition, aud the enforcement of the Laws,
regarding the States that have gone ou'
of the Union as guilty Oftreason, the elec'
tion OF Mr.. Lincoln as afording no ground
for secession; and, ifelected, pledges him
self TO refuse 10 convene the Legislature,
or take any step that would advance the
cause Of secession. He mdorses The in
augural of Mr.. Lincoln as temperate, con-
servative, and national; and thus speaks
of the movers of disunion:
The leaders in this movement to dis.
solve this Union, the great citadel of our
liberties, and the depository OF the hopes
of the human race, will go down TO their
graves without any halo of glory surround
ing their brows, while on their heads will
be gathered the Kissing curses of genera
tions, horrible as the forked'tongued
snakes Of Medusa!
Their ghosts will stand on the highest
and blackt st eminece Of infamy--lhe de-
teslatiol Of mankind. Having met a trai
tors. death. they will each and all il
traitors grave; over which there will be
no requiem but the groans of the oppres
sed and the execrations of the good
Their monuments will be Of human bone'
upon foundations slippery with human
blood. However high may have beer
heir elevation in Office, their fall will bC
IKE that of Lucifer. And whilst from
their bad eminence they shall turn from
bebolding the glories Of that Constitution
and Union, against which they rebellct
in the year of Grace, 1861, to survey th'
barren waste, the bouudless and bottom
less pits Of Secession, they will excla;n
