Union is complex question; that it embra-
ces the fearful issue whether the Union
shall stand, and slavery, under the steady,
peaceful action of moral. social and political
causes, be removed by gradual, voluntary ef-
fort, and with compensation, or whether the
UNION SHALL BE DISSOLVED. and civil
wars ensue, bringing on VIOLENT but COM
plete and immediate emancipation. We are
now arrived at that stage when that crisis
can be foreseen-whsn we must foresee it. It
is directly before us. Its shadow is upon u.s.
These are mere samples of Mr.. Sew
ards views and sentiments. They we're
declared deliberately and purposely,
and the country was warned at the sew
eral times of his giving expression to
such sentiments, that it would lead to a
conflict between the North and South
and finally in disruption Of the Union.
But what cared Mr.. Seward, so that
the darling object of his life followed
as consequence-the abolition of sla-
very.
Let us take another Of the converts
to Unionism. Hear how much Major
General Banks once cared for the I'm
ion.
In aspeech made by Banks in Maine
in 1855, he said:
Although am not one of that class of
men who cry for the preservation Of the I'm.
ion; though am willing in certain state
Of circumstances, to let it slide, l have no
tear for its perpetuation But let me say, if
the chief object Of the people Of this country
be to maintain and propagate chattle prop
erty in msn-in other words, human slavery
this Union cannot and ought not to stand!'
Still later, in 1856, in a speech in
Massachusetts,, We find Mr.. Banks

Personal Privilege.

On Saturday last Mr.. Ferebee arose in his place
and said: His attention had been called to q
stateuent in the State Journal purporting to
he a report of the debate on the question of ap-
pointing Justices for the county Of Camden. That
trouble the House with one or two corrections.
He was reported as saying, that one person had
hacked his own petition round the County. He
denied that any such expression the word hacked
had been used by him, any one else in the debate
upon this floor. The Reporter had authority
for that language. 1t was his own.
Again he represented designating by
name, and attacking the character Of persons re-
commended in the partisan petition. Such is not
true-not word of it. | have attacked the char
acter of no the petition, nor in the debate
publicly on this floor have called the name even
of any one of them.
In this whole affair have acted upon principle as
legislator nothing and doing nothing but
what believed my duty required. | have fought
against the tyranny attempted to be practiced on
the people of Camden, and so long as | have scat
here | will continue to fight against it, and to de-
fend the rights of that people against such injustice
come from what it may. The personalities
arc not mine. They were dragged in by the gentle
man from Perquimons. No one else mentioned
publicly in debate any Of the names. The House
will bear me witness, that when he attempted to
give the debate a personal character, promptly
interrupted him-denied any such influence, and
disclamed all intention to be personal.
Other errors there are in that report, but will
not further detain the House-let them pass.

The MEcKLENBuRG CANDIpATES.-It will be seen
by the proceedings in another column that county
convention Of those in favor of the immediate seces
sion of North Carolina, have nominated Hon. j. w.
Osborne and VIM. Johnston, Esq as candidates for
the State Convention. 1t will also be seen that
they are pledged to 60 for secession, without reser
vatiors of any kind Until recently, both gentle
men were what might be called strongly "conser
vative" We know Mr.. Johnston was, and we think
Mr.. Osborne was also.
We do not intend that any one shall be left in
doubt as to our position and therefore say now,
that we shall not vote for either Of the above named
gentlemen. We suppose this announcement will
ALLEVIATE and offend many of our former friends

their friendship or be on what seems to be the
popular side in this COMMUNICATIONS. Demo-

On Saturday last, there was fareup in

Californians. who called on the President TO
protest against Senator Bakers influence in
appointments. Baker was invited by the
President to be present. j. A. Nunes pre-
sented memorial numerously signed, and
Simonton presented protest, each accom-
panied with remarks. Simonton also read
from paper severely rejecting on Baker
The President preserved the memorial and
protest, but threw Simonton's notes in the
FIRE, because he considered his remarks dis
respectful to his friend, whom he had known
for twenty-five years. The delegation with
drew rather abruptly, but, at the request of
