AVc have not' seen the lecture, but we can imagine that its delineations were graphic 1. r__ a. : i Onuuga iur hilt; uuuiuhuii, anu 1W uauu+o were certainly marked enough to gratify any solicitude he might have for notoriety.

The stroke was a bold one, but it has-been suce&s " ful, and the abuse ho has received is, perhaps, the highest tribute to hlh merit that has yet been paid to hint. / Mr. Simms was invited by a Library Association to address then**, as a literary man, the only one of note in the South, it wm supposed that he would choose a subject proper for the occasion With an impudence unsurpassed, ho comes into ouiHpidst and makes an harangue abusive of*?

The election of Mr. Buchanan wii! not work a termination of slavery agitation It was never believed that it would ; it j r will only postpone the solution of a great problem, the permanency of the Federal J Union. Had Mr. Fremont been elected, ' we believe that immediate preliminary i measure* would kuva been undertaken by 1 ? portion of the Southern Statea to effoct ' dissolution of the Union ; with what 000 ' am, it is iiupoftstblft to nay. ' Happily for I the peace of the country, Fremont has 1 be?o defeated; and for the prosont at least we are eared tho withering and blasting ? sight of a broken and dismembered luioo. >j Hut it is only a trace, not a peace that < we shall enjoy. Wc were told beforehand, by Mr. Uuohanta'a chief eouoeellor, that 1 Mr. Buchnaan'a election would only fur. nish a reapite ; that emu with bis election i the Union would not continao over fimr years. If this be a Southern view of the cpee; tiou fa in the North, we have little enooaraging or hopeful to look for. UisRoiae it us they nay, the ultimata design aad hope .

Let tp see to vh at growth in s tat are, strength end in- luenc* this hitherto despised and con torn itible party has reached.

The Frcesoil strength j n tbo electoral colleges, where, four years go, it was not n^resented by a single Presidential elector, is now on? hundred ind twenty-seven olcciori. Does any one believe for a moment that' i party of sack rapid precocious growth is jo be discouraged by a defeat that was so acar being a victory ? or that it will abate in the least degree, oae jot of its onergy ind activity ? Tbe battle is not ended, it La only prolonged; and renewed vigor snd bopo will be iufused in the breast of the combatants. The fight, henceforth, will be few {ruMcn; the prise of viotory not M Free Kansas," but the utter prest ratios and subserviency of tbo slave power. They j tell u? this openly and candidly. They ; proclaim that the day of slavery are nunt . bored; that its rcigu is near its end; that' Liberty cannot die among a free people ? The New Vork Times cheers its party an. dor tbe apprehensions of an anticipated | defeat, with encouraging words. Patriot'! ism and Humanity, it tells thorn, may for a time be prosUatod, but tbey will eventual ly triumph. "The Republican patty will go On with it? work until Freedom is universal, and the noec^sUy for the party i has passed away." This is not to be the \ result of individual wishes and physical , action, but bocnuso it is a political #nd iivtrnl necessity which canoot be evaded.

There was aomo invidious companion?an occasional allusion to what he regarded as the dereliettoos of Naw Kog-1 I said. He admitted that nearly one-half of the population of South Carolina adhered to tho crown throughout the ntruggle, and explained and palliated this oirtram tanoe by aayiug that the territory felt very little of the bnrdana of which New England complained The population was almost entirely agricultural, who fbuod a ready market for their products in England.

Yet we feni that such may be the rod of all our struggle: if the voice of the party pr?sa is heeded. As Democrats our natural affinities woulc have been with the nominees of that party a all events, but especially after the confident expression cf opinion on the part of our raoel sagaciot * Statesmen that the triumph of 4h< Democracy would inure to the benefit of th< South and socure the triumph of the constitn tion, we were more disposed to throw our sym pathies in tbut direction, and ready to rejoict in iti success- We wished too that the rerae dy should Ae thoroughly tested. Yet we havi never contemplated throwing away our armi or relinquishing our armonr upon the event o Mr. Buchanan's election. There is something atill to be done. ?s yet nothing has been ac complished, but we have only learned to hop< for something iu tbe future. Mr. Buchanan is a Democrat? so is Mr. Pierce, and in ou; humble opinion quite as reliable for the Sooth Nothing has been done and we wait for that. Is it not suicidal then in any position of th< Southern press to pursue a course tending U divert the mind of the South from the issoei still pending and as full of daoger as ever the] were? i< it not criminal in uur Statesmen u suffer the people to be deluded by the sera bianco of peace when war is waging in all it fury aroand them? Tie just such a state a: this in which the enemy wish to surprise nn 'l'ia tbe sleep, a< t ef repose, but of death. Not ran the f^ensoeratie or aay other party 01 earth powerful fbr good as it may be, accorn pKsh anything for a people who are insensibh to their own danger and indifferent to thei own interests. ThU is not the way to test th< remedy our Statesmen hare proposed. Her cute* will aoi put his shoulder to the wheel un lorn he finds as ready to co-operate in our owi deliverance. We are ptoatud to find tin t aom< of th? most infloenttal papers at ths South art placing this matter in its trwe light, amonj othe.'s we heartily endorse the remarks of th< " 1'rae t^eroittnan upoo tttjs subject, and hop toooe lb* entire pre** of tlio flute united it ft determination to rescue fhonrtbe oblivion o party the oily cause which is Worth an effort. ^ Southern Quarterly Review.
