a NO. 5256. The Overthrow of the American Govern. ment—The Dissolution of the Union. From the London Standard, Sept. 19,] Our kinsmen at the other side of the Atlantic, 50 woany of whom are warm sympathisers with the Irish repealers, appear to be in a very fair way to have a “ repeal of union’ question of their own, with- out the ntee against violent separation which the monarchical ego im our own government happily affords. As we have lately seen, when @ sepa- ratist party rises in the United Kingdom, the whole ee the kingdom can be almost at an instant ought to bear for its suppression; the division that declares itself is moral, not territorial. It isthe divi- sion of the “ loyal” (a word, by the way, that they have not in the United States, because they have not the idea) against the traitor party,not England a ireland, or Ireland against England. One good of this distinguishing acteristic of monarchy is, that it protects men in their own opinions everywhere, without the danger of their being overborne and op- pressed by a contiguous majority. ‘This protection 1 ily wanting in the United States, as in every considera- istrict must yublic, What the majority of an dle district command, all within that ‘bey; and, therefore, when we fin sion ‘of the confederation talking seriously “ of peal of the union,” we may confidently predict that ‘The fact here re it . There is no neighboring enemy of sufficient power to force them into, or to hold them in union for @ common defence. ‘The use of steam na- vigation, which has, as it were, welded the British islands into one, bridging over the sea, that now draws them clorer, instead of separating them, has had pre- cirely the opposite effegt in the United States, For- merly the inhabitants of the provinces west of the Allegheny range, having descended the Ohio and the Missiesippi with that produce which was their sele subject of trafiic, were accustomed to avoid the delay and other inconveniences of a return voyage against the stream of these great rivers by « land journey northward, through Georgia. the Carolinas, Virginia, Pennsylvania, &e. This constant intercourse, of ne- cessity, Jed to connections of commerce, marriages, and ndship, but this occasion of intercourse has been superseded by the return voyages by steam, and the Kentucky man now really knows as little of his fellowreitizens eastward as of the people of England or France. The case is still stronger with the men west- ward of the great rivers. To this, which may be regarded as an inert cause of separation, more active repugnances are added—the Northern States are, in gteat part, manufacturers—tho Southern Stat xclusively agricultural. The North. ern States are wisely resolved to protect their man‘ facturing industry, by high tariffs, and being sufii- ciently sgricultural to supply their own wants, they are wholly independent of the States of the South, upon which States the high tariffs of the Northern States recoil with injurious effect. ‘Thirdly, the Northern States have sbolished slavery in their own territory, and are maniferting a rae disposition to cong the Southern States to abolish italso. The le of the Southern States, however, have long be- eved that, to emancipate their slaves, would throw their land out of cultivation, and render it perfectly wortbless, We may believe that they are mistaken in this opinion, but questionless, the late practical procla- mation of the British Legislature, that slave labor can- not be dispensed with in hot climates, must tend pow- erfully to confirm this opinion in those once aged by it. Meanwhile, the abolitionists of the Northern States are as violent and as intolerant asever, Now, our opinion of the righteousness of abolishing slavery has never, for a moment, wavered. We believe that the Creator has destined all the earth that he has formed for cultivation, and that he has destined all his rational creatures to lom; we, therefore, cannot admit that there is any portion of the world, least of all the Elchees yoerton, of it, that can be cultivated only by slaves; and if our abolition have failed to any ex- tent, which we doubt, the failure is, we are satisfied, due to the m tof raising the West Indian negroes to the rank of rational beings, before making them free nts. But though our opinion of the righteousness of the abolition of slavery has never wavored,we are bound to confess that the last few years have greatly mo- dified our opinion of “abolitionists.” These few years have that at least three-fourths of those who most loudly clamered for “emancipation” in 1831 and 1832, were nothing better (Quakers included) than disgusting byt ites—men who cared nothing for the happiness of k men or white men, or anything but their personal popularity or per.onal profit. As men are not found to improv: by crossing the Atlantic we must conclude that the proportion of honest and good men among “the abolitionists” in is not poe than it bas proved among our own “abo- » and if such be the ease, same thin; if the Southern republicans belie after our ex- ample they well may) such to be the case, they must feel insulted as well as endangered, when threatened, as they are, by their nortbern fellow citizens compulsory abolition of ery. been to these refiections upon the al- inty of speedy dissolution of the Ameri- 'e most cer can edly the seccnd man in the States—Mr Webster being the first—Mr. Calhoun. We find the speec! which was delivered at # general meeting of the State of South Carolina, in the Charleston Mercury of the . as Kg te to co! r the part to be taken by the people of South Carclina at the approaching election of President. Upon this point Mr, Calhoun gives the following ex- cellent advice, which we should wieh to see tollowed universally at English Ce gpireye A in a contest where no competitor worthy of a vote offers, to give no vote, Our practice of voting for the less a baat im such cases, only serves to suppor! e sal al cman's vote, one who ie confessedly a bad Ae lovel which cou ” This, we it, is excellent advice, and most , followed by British electors, Who- went ae ok votes, for an unworthy candi- mm an} ind, Gate, degrados himself to the level of him for whom votes. ‘Mr. Calhoun, proceeding to particulars, speaks of the abolition party thus :— bs dressed. last in this place, a. t change haa ca nee on ot parties at the North.
