T? the close oUtmt th*ro w bt no
pwi^liw plainer than that the disunion
sentiment of the Sooth w fast gaining impor?
too bo and foothold among uo. Tho people
at forge are rapidly making op their minds
that too rights of the South will never be
lOBBOBlod by the North, that the oountry
will alwave be excited and harassed on the
sni^cot 01 slavery, that a dissolution of the ij
Union will come soonei or later, and that it m
had hcttw come now than to be put off to a
more rdbiote period in our history. We
know tbat.disuhion ban been the cry with fi
oertain persohs at the Sotitli ever since we '
could recollect anything, and before, but the
sentiment then mot with a feeble response
ntMMA. Rantimr politician- And bla
Uot ^roagognes Lave long made uao of this ^
bobby for selfish purposes, but the time has
come when the people-Mlie war pcpuli? n
have come to. the deliberato conclusion to
withdraw from the Union, if that Uuion
doaa not afford an equal guarantee for
tb? protection of the rights of Southern as j
well aa Nortlien men, and if it be in reality
oaly a mere name under cover of disgrace to "
one portion of the confederacy. *
The great body of the Southern people c
have been alow to come io a conclusion, f
whose consequences are so full of respond- 1
bilily. They have been conservative to a fault.
They have borne obloquy, detraction and
gross violations of their rights. So pacific
has been their course that they have only
asked to be let alono. They have made no c
war on the North, or her starving free labor, |
or her deficiencies in the necessaries of life, e
or her delinquences in morals. Through a
sincere desire to perpetuate tho greatest gov- 1
erment the wisdom of man ever devised, e
they have permitted themselves to be impos- a
ed upon by an unscrupulous majority in r
Congress, and, rathei than create a rupture
of their relations with their Northern brethren,
have quietly submitted to wrong. But *
tho conservation of tho South, if sutlercd Ion- '
ger to override her 6elf-re-pcct and courage, L
will be construed into excessive timidity, if j,
not cowardice, and the people, wo honestly ~
believe, have drawn their swords, thrown away
their scabbards, and deliberately sworn
to battle for rights, and, if unsuccessful, to I
put the Yankees on their own resources, i<
and let tliem try for a while a life of separation
fro?n the South.
The greatest danger to the integrity of
the Union in our opinion, is the fact, that
Northern journals studiously endeavor to
impress upon the minds of their renders that ?i
lite South does not moan what she says S
when she talks of disunion. They say, the
South has prated so long and so much about
dissolving the Union that the threat is as t
devoiri of meaning as it is stale, that the <
South could neither be persuaded nor driven
out of the Union, and that the North would j
not permit it if desired. ,
Those Northern journals which talk so ,
blusteringly of this matter, had just as well t
come to their senses. The South has with t
stood aggression as long as she intends.? t
She has submitted to wrong, and can con (
tinue to do so ; but she cannot and will not <
suffer herself to be degraded. The day that t
sees the election of such an individual as |
Fremont will see the dissolution of the Un- }
ion. , We believe this to bo the almost u- ?
nnnimotia sentiment of the South. <
His elevation to the highest office on earth t
would be, not a virtual, but an actual stigma
of disgrace upon the South. lie is the 1
candidate of a party which wars to the hilt \
upon the dearest interests of the South, ar.d c
his election to the Presidency would he an a
authoritative announcement of her inferiori- 0
ty and degradation, which would awake the e
cry of vengeance throughout the whole i
Southern country. In view of these tilings, t
ought not every Southern man, with a <
Southern heart in his bosom, and Soutliean <
brains in his head, exert himself to the ut- I
uwit to prevent even the possibility of sue- t
Co*s to the Hlack Republicans, by uniting i
heart nnd soul on the great conservative i
ml national ticket of liuehanan and lireck- j

A Nut for the Abolitionist. ?
It i< a rtroH known fact, that the abolitionits
have howled and groaned with rage that *
a slave should exist, and have pictured a /
person held to service or labor as the most ^
degraded and Miserable being on the earth. n
They have oven- gone so far as to say that c
no slave Vduid remain in bondage if he had J,
an opportunity, to, "lasts tliO' blessings of
freedom. ! Now, all such talk as this will
do very well for eld fogies, but the fnct is
they either don't take gieat pains to tell the
truth, or else they are superlatively ignorant. "
of what js going on about tbein. It is
doubtless irftff Hint hundreds of slaves arc C
annually brought lo J>ew \ ork, ana other c
Northern oities, and not only make no at- t
tenpt to escape, but most indignantly repel c
the base approaches of the abolitionist. We n
now speak of a fact. There is a slave stop- o
ing at the Metropolitan hotel, in this city, si
who belongs to tho Ilev. James Godfrey, of h
Savannah, On. fie is alone, with perfect ?
liberty to act for himself, to go and come o
when he pleases. If the abolitionist want to
know where to find n faithful oolored man, d
who possesses tho entire confidence of his h
master, and won't steal nor cut anybody's 1
throat, let them come to us, and we can cl
point him out. Our reporter, yesterday af
tcrnoon, saw tho slave in question, and had
some conversation with him in regard to the
slaves at tho South, for whom tho "freedom w
shriekers" ?! the North are howling. The ji,
slave is infinitely tho sujajrioH, both mentally
and morally, of the abolition crew. w

AmotJg tU? nefarious-schemes-of'those j

igainst our eotbmos country, one of the |
most disreputable is that of stealing negroes
?or what amounts to the same thing, enticing

A few years ago, we hsd occasion to visit
Canada West during th* winter. One
morning, in passing up the principal street
in Tprontq. wo saw. a negro of.*ixt%anor

and the British PJiilrtntlwopiste Undt go mere

The writer passed np'nnd :ihiwA, the ?1jt|x>?ite
side of:fhe street in attending jtv business,
a" number of tithes during tlio forfi-'
noon, and no one'took jho sli^ytejJ uotice

near to tlio place where he sf;>od, shivering
like an aspen leaf, a decrepit! dhpwoman<toppod
and a?ked hiin why lie stayed there ?
He answered, as well as It is chattering teeth
would permit, that his mammy and Idmself
were runaway slaves?they liad no home,
no place to stay, anil no one to provide
them a mouthful of food. This is specimen
of British philanthropy, No 1. Please rend
on.
A few days after this occnrredx the writer
was called upon at the hotel ir. Hamilton,
where lie wan stopping, by a negro man who
desired to speak with him. lie said?I hear
vou are from the States. I am a runaway
slave ; my name is Morion; I formerly lived
in Georgia, but have been living for some
lime in Michigan. I came to Canada to
avoid the Fugitive Slavel.rv, but I am treat-.
?d here like a brute. I can neither gel
wholesome f??od nor employment?and I
want to get back again to ]">??troit. I bad
rather go back with the ri-k of going to Ga.,
than to stay here .ind-starve. Will you
?id me in procuring the means to do so!?
The reply was in the affirmative, a donation
was handed linn, a subscription paper drawn
up, stating tlie object fur which the money '
was wanted, and tliat is the last we saw of
Mr. Morton. Thin is evidence of Ilritish
philanthropy No. II. For this, is it, that
misguided philanthropists en;ice the negroes
iwav from their com fort able homes, where
every want i* provided for! They promise
them freedom?but it is freedom to freeze, !
steal, or starve.? Penmtylvaniun. ,
Cold.
For every mile that we leave the surface
of the earth the teinpcraliiie fall* five degrees."
At forty-live miles distance from the globe
we yet behold the atmosphere, ami enter,
strictly * peaking, into the regions'of space,
whose temperature is 225 degrees below zero
; and here cold reigns in all its power.
Some idea of this intense cold may be formed
by stating thai the greatest cold observed
in the aielic circle is from 40 to 00 degrees
below zero ; and here many surprising efleets
ato produced. In the chemical lalroralory
the greate*t c >M that we can produce- is
about 150 degrees below zero. At this
temperature carbonic gas becomes u solid
substance like snow. If touched it produces
ju*t the same effect on the skin as a red-hot
cinder; it blisters the finger like a burn.,
Quicksilver or merourv f -vzes 40 dogiecs
below zero; that is <- degrees below the
tempc.autre at which v'ater freeze-. This
solid mercury may then be treated as other
metals, hammered into sheets or made into
spoons; such spoons would, however, melt
in water as warm as ice. It is pretty certain
that every liquid and gas wo ire acquainted
with would becomesolid if exposed
to the cold of the regions of space. The gas
we light our streets with would become wax ;
oil would l>e in reality as hard as a rock :
pure spirit, which we havo never yet solidified,
would appear like n block of transparent
crystal; hydrogen gas would become quite
solid and resemble metal; we should be able
to turn butter in a lathe like u piece of ivory
; and the fragrant odor of the flowers
would have to be hot before they would
yield perfume. These are a few of the astonishing
effects of cold. ? J3tptimv$ Pins/.

A CARD. '%
To the People of Greenville.
I DISCOVER that the Senior Editor of ths
Patriot d' Mountaineer, is oat on my platform
again, and insists that I ajp an abolitionist of the
first water. l*he Mi\jor haaa atrange modovf reasoning
; he know# that I hare been a consistent
Union Mnn, nnd he labors to make the people
believe it, lie is now alaa a Union Man. But
at the time of the meeting to which he haa reference
he was a rabid 9m. ?iontar and claimed to
be the author of tha Southern Convention, and
although no un-conetitntional law was threatening
the Institution at Slavery at that time, and
according to his doetriae now, cannot effect
slavery while the Union stands at all, and declares
that it was the slaveholders that prevented
the State from aaaadiag. Te use his own
words: "The unwillingness of the large slave"
holders to dissolve the Union, was because they
"knew their property was in no danger by a con"
tinuanee of the Union."
Tina ? my Plattobm in rum, and the Major
and Col. Bbockman are both on it, for (aa above
stated,) they were both Seeeeaioniats on the 8th
of April, 1860, and I voted in that meeting on
the Major's mode of resistance, te-wit: Revolution,
and not upon the value of the Union over
Slavery, as he wishes every one to believe. The
Major was not elected on that day as a Delegate
to the Nashville Convention, and he immediately
dropped his Bantling, and mounted my platform,
and now proclaims to the world that he is again
a Union man. The Nashville Convention ended
in smoke, and aocoinpliahed nothing, nothing.
Col. Bsocnman adjourned the masting, as Its
said, " tinfd'u, to meet again next solo day," and
that sale day has never come.
As to the letter of lfr. Seward, 1 hate ?o fee
ollection of it, the letter to which he has reference
was from Abbott Lawrence on the snbjert
of a claim in England. I presume.
Id regard to my slaves, they were in Tennessvr
last October, where they had been for aom?
years. I hare the Bill of sale of them and could
sell then) to daj, hot 1 have always intended
them for two of ray daughters.
I have the stick wifA the immortal No upon it,
and I hare recently given it an additional cognomen,
I now eall it Brook a
I have a tract of land in Pickens District, and
another io Ortenville District, deed made to m<
since October last, and hope tlint I shall be abb
to give my children quite as much on a final div
idend as the Major will be able to give his, and
what will be still more valnable to them, th<
correct notions of economy.
It ie scarcely necessary to repent the fact
that gentlemen of una)) capacity rrfftnot
comprehend my political sentiments, bene*
the request that they should not meddle will
them. I do not know what I said to Col
Brockmaaon the occasion referred to; at al
events, his construction of it would have boi
little to do with mv true meaning of any
sentireentgexpressed l?v me; those present uti
