su The President has been importuned by
men prominent IN public life, who hold high
official station, to contscate Southern property
loeated in the North. They desire him to in

their proposition upon the ground that Southern
men decline to pay debts due the North, and
DO not hesitate to seize property wherever they
find it. To one of these delegations there
have been several-Mr. LINCOLN calmly listened,
and then said, mo, gentlemen, never" "But
they do il" replied the spokesman, "Thcy,"
rejoined the President. "can afford to do wrong

the Panorama of the Pilgrims Progress at the

Ac'uaiiy feel occasionally, that we have thrown
r.1Ay our time when attending scenes of small

sWTho great scare which JOHN BRowS gave
Virginia was but trifle compared to the agony
Of apprehension which she ROW exhibits as
eonsequenee Of Secession. The Richmond Er-
aminer says: -
'.The South is foil of secret enmissaries.-
Detailed reports of al our preparations are reg
ularly y transmitted tethe enemy. The spy and
Iincendiary are about our homes and hearth
stones. The fire bell at night is becoming a
familiar sound. Arson is already favorite
weapon of the enemy. Six fires a night is n
moderate average for these casualties in Rich
mond. John Browns men are abroad. The
Christian North-the philanthropic. eulighten-
ed, patriotic North-is winning more infamy in
month than all history can produce in its thou
sands of years? What was the night Of st. Bar
taolonew, tn the programme they have publish
ed for their Southern campaigns? What were
the tortures of the Inqnisitloa, or the thumb
screws of the Kirk, intiietiHg mere animal pain,
to the dark and licentious promises with which
they lure into enlistment their regiments oil
"roughs?" What was Gothic and Vandal war
| fare to that waged by armies whose advance is
preceded by the torch of the incendiary and the
stealtby wiles of the insurrectionist? What were
| the bloody crucliies of the aboriginal sayages
compared with tue brutalities of lhesc beasts
| in human form, who come to violale where the
| Indian would brain. and to rob and steal where
| the Indian would destroy.

An ARRAY at Frankfort.

The Louisville Journal learns by
telegraph from Frankfort, that as the
cars from Lexington, with a company
of Col. Duncan's regiment for the
Confederacy, from Harrison county,
reached that place, they raised huz-
"a which met with no reply. They
then shouted for JEFF. Davis and the
Southern Confederacy, which was re-
piled to by cheers for the Union and
the stars and stripes. AS the cars
moved rapidly away under the judi
cious management of Conductor Tay-
lor, Confederate flag was hoisted
therefrom, when a crowd of boys be-
gan to stone it. This led to a dis
charge of several pistols from the
volunteers, right and left out Of the
windows, indiscrininately among the
citizens, and some few shots were re-
turned, but nobody hurt"

A Startling RRmor.

A lady who arrived in this city
yesterday morning from Charleston
which city she left on Thursday
states that the most terrible condi
tion of affairs existed in that city
when she left there. About two
hundred left for the North in the
same train with herself, and the in
habitants were preparing to leave as
rapidly as possible. An insurrection
had broken out among the negroes
upon the various plantations in the
interior, and they were burning the
houses and committing other depreda-
tions. She resided about three miles
from Charleston, and her husband is
absent from home in the Secession
army. He is the owner of a cotton
plantation and some two hundred
slaves. Her father is a captain in
the United States army, and is for the
Union. She pictures the state of
things there as being dreadful in the
extreme. We cannot vouch for the
entire truth of this statement, and yet
our source of information we consider
reliable.
