BY the time these lines are perused by
our readers we presume that Florida,
Georgia, aud Alabama, will have placed
themselves along side of South Carolina
The telegraph brings word that all the
United States forts and arsenals in the
States from North Carolina to Louisiana.
inclusive, are in the hands of the rebels.
We presume the report is true as to most
ofthem, but we hope that, at least, the
forts at Key West and the Tortugas are
still in the hands of the L S. forces
The fact that these forts and arseuals
have fallen into the hands of the rebels
so easily. shows conclusively that Cobb
and Floyd we're in league with them
It is hard to tell how things may result
The old leaders of the South who wished
to use threats of dissolution merely to
scare the North into disgraceful compro-
anises, have lost all control over the par.
italy organized mob, and there is no
telling what that mob may do. The men
Of, wealth, at the South, are fearing
asrarian movements on the part of the
poorer masses. We shall not be at all
surprised if within a month or two, we
shall hear such cry coming up from
the conservative Union loving portion Of
the South for protection from the rebels,
that even a James Buchanan would hast.
en- to send them relief.
1t is hard to tell v hat will be done in
Congress in the way of compromise
The telegraph reports one day that com.
promise is agreed upon and the next day
that there is no prospect of any compro.
mise, and sometimes reports f each kind
come on the same day. Our own opin-
ion is that 30 compromise will be adopt
ed that will at all satisfy the seeding
States, but that an arrangement of some
kind will be made that will answer as an
excuse for the border slave States to re-
main in the Union. Douglas is willing
to surrender his "great principle and
restore the Typographical line Of $50
3V, but that will not be done.

ny The position Of the Presidel

Mr The position Of the President
elect and the commander of Fort Stump
ter, at Charleston Harbor, furnish good
illustration Of the workings of our Re-
publican institutions. During the Black
hawk Indian war of 1882, Major Ander.
son was Inspector General of the Illinois
volunteers, of one Of the companies of
which Mr.. Lincoln was captain. Now,
the former has been promoted % the po-
sition of Major of the First Artillery, and
the latter to that Of Commander Chief
OF the Army and Navy. The one is in
charge ola post to which the eyes of the
nation are directed, and with the defense
Of which the greatest interests are con-
nected; and the other has been chosen
by his countrymen as the Executive of
their Government The new relations
which the two are to assume will, we
doubt not, prove as honorable to each
other as did their earlies associations q,
and their respective duties be as faithful
" performed. Nus. Journal
The Postmaster at Charleston has
written to the Postmaster General that
he holds himself responsible to the Fed
eral Government for the revenues accru-
ing to his Office. For the present, there
fore, the postal arrangements will contin-

The statue Of Gen. Jackson, before the

ornamented on Sunday morning. The

was tied under the tail of the hcrse

A-The Administration lately ordered
12i ten inch Columbiads, the best guns
in use, to be shipped from the Pittsburg
arsena: to the South, osteusibly for forts
that will not be ready for them for year
at least The citizens of Pittsburg re-
monstrated and held public meeting at
which the removal of the guns at this
time was deprecated, but resolutions were
passed against any forcible resistance to
their removal. 1t was thought that the
North would be stronger without than
with the guns if they were retained in
violation Of the order of the proper (?)
officers. The order for their removal was
afterwards recalled and the guns will re-
main where they are for the present.

did ask Gen. Scott to accept Of the Office
Of Secretary of War. Gen. Scott de-
clined, but recommended Mr.. Holt, who
had rot been in the office an hour before
he sent for Gen. Scott, so that we may
be sure that Gen. Scott will be consulted
in all matters relating to the army. 1t is
supposed that active measures are being
taken to strengthen all the weak points
at the South that are yet in the hands Of
L. S. Troops.

SHALL WE DO TIT

The shareholders ask that the people oil
the North shall consent to Congress
sional Slave Code for the Territories, and
upon obedience to thot demand, they say,
depends the continuance of the Federal
Government. Most of the shareholders
90 farther aud demand that they shall
have the privilege Of bring their slaves
into the free States, temporarily, and
keeping them here. Shall we accede to
tina demand? At the Democratic Con-
veutions, at Charleston and Baltimore,
the demand for slave code was made of
the northern Democrats To their hon.
or be it said, they refused to accede to
the demand, prefering that the party
should be divided and defeated, rather
than that they should surrender prin-
ciple. Almost every northern and thou
sands of Southern men applauded them
for their course The election resulted,
As all know, in the success of the Repub-
lican ticket. The vote was as follows:
For Lincoln l.35S,2o0
Douglas l,21G,7s0
Breckenridge sl25so
Bell ,sjG0i
The Breckenridge ticket was the only
ono that favored slave code. What
then does the vote show 1t shows that
while 1920, 464 votes were cast against a
slave code, only ST., $50 were cast for it.
This is the verdict of the people: of the
popular sovereigns. In the face of this
vote the slave-drivers modestly ask the
North to give them slave code. We
hope and believe that the North, the Re-
publicans especially, will show as much
courage as did the Democrats in their
national conventions.
But, some one asks, will you refuse The
slave code if such refusal will result in
dissolution Of the Union? We answer
Yes. We do no: believe it will result il
a dissolution of the Union, but if it does
We can conceive some things that woulr
be worse than dissolution Of the Union
Perhaps slave code would not be worse
but if factious minority can compel tn
majority, in case like the present, t
give up the principles for which the
ccntepded and with which they succeed
ed, the same thing can and will be don
at other elections, and then the minorit
and not the majority will make our law
and administer them To surrender no
is but beginning of long course whic
will result in establishing slavery in eve
the free States and in re opening tn
African slave trade. We say then don
do it. Hold TIE rod firm and let thel
wiggle. They will have the worst of
aud will soon give in.
