Death Of Charles w. Chapel.

intelligence of the death of Charles W. Chapel.

and that without the Intervention of any special

self indeed sufficient TO startle the most needless
Mr. Chapel took a cold about ten DAYS ago,
which fastened itself with great sevt ritz upon
his lungs. He had partly recovered, he sup
posed from its worst effects, aud on Friday and
Friday evening about the streets, as be had
been on several previous days, though not in his
usual cheerful mood, and showing signs of physi-

ii O'Clock, aud his physician pronounces the
disease that carried him off to have been conges.

There are not many men in the State whose
name is more familiar to our citizens than that
of Mr.. Chapel. lie was a member OF the conven-
ton which framed the present State Constitution,
and had served in the Legislature, as a repre-
sentative from Macomb county, but was more
largely known by his connection with public
works. More than twenty year. ago, he was a
contractor on the Clinton Canal. He had the
personal charge and superintendent OF the con.
struction OF the Saul St. Mary's Canal and won
the marked regard of the company who accom-
plished that improvement, by his efficiency in
the execution of his duties Last wear he had

with Indian guides, to assure, by bis own direc-

would have left a name o.. marked note among
the public men Of Michigan. He was a man o!
kind impulses. withal, aud in spite of marked
prejudices, truthful and naguanimous and the
news of his death will carry heartfelt regrets TO
the hearts of very large circle of friends and
acsuaintances.
Mr.. Chapel was 46 years Of age, nearly thirty

Finances OF the State.

We trust our readers will give an attentive
perusal to the report of the Committee of FL
nance, in the Senate, made on Friday last, by
Hon. H. P. Baldwin, of Wayne, Chairman.
This report, while il gives to every tax payer
Of Michigan, the information which he requires,
in respect to the financial condition of the State,
not only as to its funded debt, but also, in regard
to the floating debt. The report performs ano,h-
er office. 1t vindicates the past policy Of the
Republican party through three administrations,
and proves clearly that during that time, the
general financial policy of the State has been
sound, wise and eficious
The report enjoins the utmost economy for the
future. Many will dissent from the strictness
with which all expense is discontinued, except
such as are of sheer necessity, but as the Legis-
lature have power over the whole subject, they
of course will act as their common wisdom and
prudence shall direct them. The document is
one which was much needed, and is full, satisfac.
tory and exhaustive upon the topics which II
covers

Affect.

How utterly sordid is the course of most OF
the Locofoco press just now; if such thing can
be, more base than when under the influence OF
campaign excitement. These wretched toadies to
treason, gloat over each circumstance OF guilt,
if the luxury of saying "see what told you,
were dearer to their souls than is their country.
Such men should remember that the very spiri,
now at work in the Cotton States, spoke to them
at Charleston, telling them that unless they aban
ed the candidate of their cloce, the party should
be broken, and that the Republicans should tri
umDhant. The northern Democracy would not
yield their candidate, the party was broken, the
Republicans triumphed; that triumph was made
the pretext of secession, and the ahject humilia
ted Douglasites now chuckle over the treason
and Law it at the door of the Black Republ
leans"
The Buffalo Courier, Democratic paper ha:
the maniness to refer this matter back to its true
and original cause. That paper says:
d" Had there been no secession from the Nation
al Democratic convention - had there been nc
attempt to force a platform upon the Convention
which portian of the Democracy could not &C
cept-had there been no determination to com
pass the defeat of certain candidates at whatever
cost to the party and the country, the Republi
can party would have been as effectually beaten
Mt the polls in November it would be, wer,
the election to be held to-day"
Secession comes from no immediate cause
Its source lies far back in the past and should b.
sought in the inordinate lust of power, the inor
dinate pride, and the inordinate jealousy of TIT
Northwest, in the Cotton States. These impul
ses eliminated at the election Of Lincoln, blu
they existed and were formed, organized, and engi
neered before his death, by Calhoun. The Repub
lican party is no more responsible for this out
break, than they are responsible for human sav
cry as National Institution. With few excep
tons, and those badly scattered throughout tn
country, the Locofoco press evince ill-conceale'
glee at the ruin going about them. Reveng
is dearer to them than patriotism. Their prd
of opinion is dearer to them than the homo. an
integrity of their own government. Such mel
will lend no aid TO save their country If it
saved at all, it will be done by truehearted, pa!
riotic men, with blood-not vinegar, in thei
veins-with hearts, not gizzards in their bosom
with brains, not mud in their skulls.

Louisiana Gone.

Louisiana has added herself to the seeding
States. In all other respects the condition Of the
country is as it was a week ago. "There are
wars, and rumors Of wars, but the end is not
yet
The prevailing sentiment at the extreme South
is desire not to be molested but to be allowed 10
retire quietly, and to take with them whatever Of
government property happens to lie within their
respective borders.
In unison with the deprecating spirit which
marks the hours, as against all hostile or defen
sive acts on hehalf of government towards the
seeding States. Mississippi has blockaded the
father of Rivers, and her cities collect duties OF
leyies, anu her forts fire upon steame peaceably
passing from our free States, to points below
Her newspapers, and the fre-eating movers Of
Tennessee, openly boast of these outrages, and
impudently ask what the north are going to dc
about it? Louisiana sympathises in this triumph
The government of the United States bOugh,
and paid for the free and unrestricted naviga
ton of the Mississippi river; they did so for the
benefit of each and every State which might
have occasion TO use il.
The government Of the United States bought
and paid for Louisiana herself, and southern hon
or was never more bitterly satirizcd than by the
conduct of Louisiana in exulting over the breach
of faith in blockading the river, and by putting
the cap-sheaf to her infamy by stealing herself
after she had been bought and paid for.
Virginia has undertaken a measure of concii'
alton, by inviting the several States of the UnioT
to meet on the 4th of February at Washington
by FIVE Commissioners from each State, to con
suit for the common benefit upon the wide anc
liberal basis of the Constitution of the United
States, and to take such measures "a the ext
gency demands, for the common welfare.
1t is to be hoped that Michigan will send
Commissioners, who shall be men of prudence
of wisdom, and of patriotism. The emergency
is one which demands prompt attention, and it il
due to its Importance that the invitation OF Vir
gnia should be met, in the spirit of which i
was given.
