We have frequently heard it remarked, the Union cannot be dissolved; that eli the complained of will be amicably adjusted, in some they know not how; that such is their faith in the in- diseclubility of the compact that binds the States to- gether, that they bave no fears but that all will be ultimately srranged to the satisfaction of every section’ and of every interest. Those more radical and fanati-, cal in their principles, say they have heard threat cf dissolution from the South so often, that they, have not the least Sdea that {t will amount to moretham, mere talk. This shows how little the public mind at the North has been excited by tie movements in Con. grees; and it also shows, that not until the volcanic firee burst out from under thair very feat, will the freg_ States be aroused to # proper sense of the dangers sur- rounding them and of the evils created by the vipers” they bave warmed into life and strength by their coun- tenance and eupport. The people of the North are Uterally sleeping upon s voloano, and the evidences oj an eruption are apparently obstinately unheeded. The South has risen in its might. There never was before such # universal determination on the part the slaveholding section of the country, to bring slavery question toa final issue. Live or die—surviy or perieh, every Southern vote will he for dissolut rather than longer submit to the loss of that . importance inthe Union which they have heretofore enjoyed, and at all hazards, wili maintain, so long a the confederacy exists, Every time that this q , bus been eeciousiy agitated, sface Ife7, it hes more difficult to settle. The spirit of compromise hitherto been all powerful; and has, for the time, oll vpon the troubled waters, and party,or rather 81 strife has for the time been allayed.-never extinguish. od, The conservative power of compromise has dis- appeared, and the great compromiser fads that the in. ice he wieldedjwith that wand, no longer safice: to sooth and calm the prejudices of sectional interests.

No section of the eountry is disposed to compromise The South have rights, and those rights must be re. epected. All that they demand. is guarantied by the con stitution end the idea of comprowiring is preposterous i If anytbing unjust, ifenythiog wrong, if anything uz constitutional was demanded.-ifricht and wrong were mixed up that they could not be separated — compromis” might be rubmitted to, for the purpose of equalising th claima of all parties, and satisfactorily arranging th pointe at in Butthisiea different question, Th South argue that they insist upon noting more thay their righ'*, and that compromising away their right would be an admission that their claims were of a doubt ful character, The North have everything to geinb/ eom promise, and the South everything to lose.

We look upon anything short of » final set tlement of the slavery question only as a por ponement of the evils growing out of that sat ject; and the only course left for the South § pursve is to bring it at once to a crisis, In fact, the ean do nothing else. They are literally force Into that alternative; amd the sooser the crids reached, the better. The South have ealoulated cont of any result closely, end cantiousty; they not presred this question to an issue, or taken such determined stand, without the most mature reflection and they are prepared for any emergency. The usw impetuority of the South has given place to ealm an serious reflection; and every movement made te with full comprehension of its effect and probabie eons quences, As extraordinary as it may appear to tho: who have not given this question the thought and r the North.
