oon a ea oS. themselves pleased with the praise be- stowed in the President’s message on the con- duct of the British Admiral, regarding it as an implied censure on General Harney. They, of course, do not look upon the language of Mr. Buchanan as yieldif¥ anything to the English interpretation of the boundary line. Thus the question remains for the present. Matters are Mow so arranged that there is no probability of any further difficulty occurring until the negotiations between the two governments shall have decided which is right on the main point in dispute. The Union of the States—By Force or Friendship—Which? The theory of the black republican party, as openly expressed and advocated by Hickman, Webb, Wilson and others, is, that no matter whether their ideas are congenial to other por- tions, of the country or not, if they can get possession of the federal government they will use force to compel the South to stay in the Union. This brings before the people of this coun- try a new anda monstrous issue. They are to decide whether the Union shall be preserved by force or by friendship; and in coming to a decision on this question they will have to ex- amine whether the Union can be preserved by force, and whether they are prepared to make the great sacrifices which would be necessary in order to exert that force. Mr. Hickman talks flippantly about the relative proportion of eighteen millions of population in the Northern States to eivbt mij'ions in those of the South, and of his readiness to head a small detachment for the purpose of marching—we do not remember to what goal of gore and glory. Webb, too, is valiantly belligerent, as the organ of the fighting merchants of New York, and frequently announces his intention of whipping the entire South into the most ab- ject and submissive subjection. Senator Wil- son shufiles a little on the question in Wasbing- ton; but when he gets into his own barnyard at Natick he crows as lustily as either Hickman or Webb. But these are the vaporings of short- sighted politicians, not the calm reflections of farseeing statesmen; and it behooves every man in the North to ponder seriously what means the threat of eigbteen millions of men undertaking to coérce cight millions of their fellowe. If we could for a moment suppose that the men of the North would unite, and knit them- selves as strongly and as unanimously together to make the aggressive war as the men of the South are knit and united to repel it, the per- epective would be the most terrible that ever presented itself to the world. Two vast com- munities, possessing every engine that art can construct, every appliance that skill or science has invented, would grapple in a struggle for life or death. The forces of the contending parties, unequal as they seem in numbers, would be equalized, if not reversed, by the dif- ferent moral power which always attends ag- gression und defence. The busy hum of pro- ductive industry would give place to the waste- ful clangor of gathering in martial array. Com- merce would cease its thronging on our rivers and seas, and the present hope of a peaceful reward for honest labor would be displaced by the lust for spoil and the longing for the gory laurels of war. Battle would extend its destructive rage over the now peaceful cities and fields of the land, and the horrors of the strife would be heightened by the rage of the curdled feelings of brotherhood that for eighty years have bound us together. However the venal pen of history might gild the achieve- ments of a few fortunate military leaders, and lift its hosannas in their praise, these would, in sober truth, be but the knell of death to the happiness, prosperity and glory of the Jand. But the idea that such a conflict can oc- cur—that eighteen millions of people in these Northern States can be united to make an ag- gressive and destructive war upon their eight millions of brethren in the South—is absurd. And it is the more absurd when we remember that the motive which Hickman, Webb, Wilson and their black republican fellows adduce for it is the support of a fanatical idea which is based entirely on ignorance and misrepresenta- tion of the social institutions of theSouth. Every principle which leads to the preservation of the Unton can spring only from a desire for peace and a feeling of fraternity. The govern- ment under which we live and so greatly pros- per is based upon the idea of the self-govern- ment of the States. That idea rejects every possibility of external influence for coercion. It makes the affections of the people of all sec- tions the base and the bulwark of the govern- ment; and whatever destroys these destroys the Union and the government at the same time. Their forms might remain for a time,*but they would be nothing but heartless shells, which ‘would soon drop to pieces from their own hol- Jowness Should the black republican leaders, therefore, succeed in their revolutionary attempt to seize the powers of the general government, and through them endeavor to coerce the Southern States into an unwilling submission, those very powers would turn to aches in their grasp, and the name and faculties of the confederation would ex’st only ina bollow usurpation. The vitality that animates the federal power flows only froa ibe voluntary consent of the States and the wtiting affections of the people of all sections. A withdrawal of all the Southern States, under the impulse of a sense of danger, such as the black republican party menaces their social organization and their every vested interest with, would paralyse the arm of the North, should such wild fanatics as those who threaten to preserve the Union by force en- deavor to rouse it to carry their threat into execution. Then would commence the new phase of the present conflict. In the North the question would everywhere come up, shal We endesvor to establish a detested rule over the Sours? No mancan doubt that the uni- versal voice would be, if the Union cannot be Preserved without force, it cannot be preserved atall. Let every mao, then, ask himself the question to-day, whether the Union is to be preserved by force or friendship, and seek in his own heart the answer to the outpourings of Hickman, Webb, Wilson, Helper and their tribe. Im that answer he will find the true comment on the theories which these tongue-valiant politicians boast as worthy of being sustained by the sword. Senator Dovotss Borrowrxe « Lear Ovt or ‘Ovr Boox.—In another page we reprint an editorial article which appeared in this journal on the Iich of December iast, and underneath it an extract from the apeech of Senator Doug- tas, delivered in Congress on Monday last. By compering the article and’ the speech, the | and to it we owe the fact that we are not alone reader will see that the Husatp was six weeks | the first Power in China to-day, but'we are in ahead of the Senator in proposing an interstate neutrality law, and it will be further made evi- dent by the comparison that the Little Giant of Illinois has copied our ideas. In this we think he shows his good sense, notwith- standing the taunt of a republican leader that the Herap supplies brains to the demo- cratic party. There is another point in which the distinguished Senator follows the Herat, and that is as regards Seward’s Rochester speech and Helper’s book, and other incendiary publications of the black republicans, leading to John Brown’s invasion of Virginia. That the reader will find passim in the Hurap ever since fhe startling event took place. This isa healthy sign in the case of Mr. Douglas, who has been ao long laboring under political bal- lucination. It is a decided symptom of return- ing convalescence. We trust he will soon be completely cured of squatter sovereignty. Tae RepvsiicaN PRESIDENTIAL CONVENTION AT Cutcaco.—There is now a dispute among the republican leaders as to the time of holding this Convention. The friends of Seward, seeing that there was a division in the republican camp, produced by the effect of the Harper’s Ferry raid and Helper’s book on the public mind, and that the more conservative portion of the party were thus scared back from the advanced position occupied by Mr. Seward in his declaration of war to the knife against slave labor in the Southern States, deemed it advisa- ble to have the National Republican Conven- tion for the nomination of President postponed to the latest possible day, in order to give time for the split to be healed, the fears of the mode- rate men to subside, and the Seward stock w rise once more to its former high figure. Ac- cordingly they managed to have a very late day appointed—the 13th of June. Even that time is considered now too early by Seward and Weed, and they would gladly extend it further if they could. It is with the same view that Mr. Seward is silent in the Se- nate: he wants the troubled waters of agita- tion to become calm till he gets the nomina- tion, and then he will probably come out with a manifesto more fierce than that of Ro- chester. His silence, however, like a two- edged sword, cuts both ways, for it will proba- bly disgust the more rabid portion of the party; and notwithstanding the politic quiescence which he regards as “ masterly inactivity,” the conservative and Union feeling is gaining ground, and his rivals desire to take advantage of it by changing the time for holding the Con- vention to an earlier day. Weed and Seward insist upon the middle of June as the very earliest, in order that the higher law apostle may have time to recover from the injuries he has received in the “ irre- pressible conflict” which he set in motion be- fore he went to Europe, and which in his ab- sence became so hot and bloody, and now, after his return, threatens to become moresanguinary and destructive, and to be extended on a scale of the most alarming dimensions. On the other hand, his rivals—Banks, Chase, Fessenden, and particularly Bates—want to have the Con- vention held soon, in order to kill him off while he is down. The Tribune, which is the organ of Bates, advocates the holding of the Convention at least a month earlier. It is pro- bable, however, that it will not be held till the middle of June, for Weed is engineering to pre- vent an earlier day; and we need not tell our readers that he knows how to pull political wires, and that many who think themselves amazingly smart are only puppets in his hands De.ecares To THE CHARLESTON CoNVENTION.— We print in another part of this paper a list of the delegates, so far as known, that have been chosen to represent the democracy of the seve- ral States in the National Convention which is to meet at Charleston on the 3d of April next The time for the Convention being so near at hand, this list, though incomplete, will be found quite interesting. The Charleston Convention will have to meet a very heavy responsibility. The canvass which it opens will be the most important that has taken place in this country since 1832, when the conservative and commercial classes of the country rallied to the support of General Jackson, who was battling against foes without and traitors within his party, and triumphantly returned him to the White House for a second term. The insane fanaticiam and odious treason of the abolition party breaking out in the Helper book, the Seward irrepressible con- flict and the John Brown raid, have incensed the South beyond measure and disgusted all peo- ple who have a grain of common sense in the North. It is expected, then, that the Charles- ton Convention will present a candidate who will command the votes of conservative na- tional men in all sections of the country; and the nomination of the right man would be equi- valent to putting him in the right place. Many of the delegates will go to Charleston pledged to vote for certain candidates. As many as half a dozen prominent democrate—such as Wise, Hunter, Breckinridge, Douglas and Dickinson—have votes promised in advance. But none of these men will do. They cannot command the reserved vote. As we have pre- viously demonstrated, Mr. Buchanan can com- mand the united Southern vote, his full party strength in the North, and the reserved vote of the great Central States. His administration has been distinguished by firmness, prudence and sagacity, and his only opponents are disap- pointed seekers after the spoils. Mr. Buchanan, then, is the only man for Charleston. American InTERVENTION IN CHINA.—In an- other column will be found a notice of a meet- ing of the Boston Board of Trade, at which a memorial to the President was adopted, sug gesting thathe tender the mediation of this government to England, France and China, for the amicable adjustment of the difficulties arising out of the battle of Peiho, and thus avert a war which, entered upon, would in- evitably be a protracted and murderous con flict. England and France, though powerful in the field, would probably find an obstinate foe in China, which, in point of the loss of men, could hardly be made to suffer as much as her adversaries in any event, for she can spare two or three millions out of her immense popula- tion without missing them. When our Commissioner to China, Mr. Reed, followed out his instructions and abstained from interfering in the late trouble, the Lon- don Times abused the American Commissioner and American policy, because we would no‘ interfere to aid England. Now it turns eu: thet Mr. Buchanan’s policy was exactly right; @ position to mediate between the three bel- ligerent Powers, and povsibly prevent a war disastrous alike to England, to France, and to China. We learned by late advices that the Chinese government contemplated appealing to our Minister, Mr. Ward, to obtain the media- tion of the United States; and we think that the President ought to tender it to the three governments, in this emergency, although we would not urge an infraction of the general policy of non-interference so judiciously adopted by our government.

Waat tus Democrats Want To Exrct 4 Spkaker.—On Friday the result of the thirty-ninth ballot in the House of Repregentatives showed 112 votes for Wm. N. H. Smith, Southern oppositionist, of Norfa Carolina, and 106 for Mr. Sherman, Helperite—necessary for a choice, 115. Wm. 8. Holman, democrat, of Indiana; Wm. Allen, demo- crat, of Ohio, and John G. Davis, anti-Lecompton demo- crat, of Indiana, did not vote for Mr. Smith, otherwise he would have been elected. If the democrats will now stick to Mr. Smith,'it seems but reasonable to suppose that those gentlemen above named will ultimately join with their party friends, and assist in the organization of the House. John B, Haskin, John Hickman, and John Swartz, the three ant!-Lecompton democrats who bundled into the republican party at the commencement of the session, still remain with the Shermanites. Rerupucan Canpipates.—It is settled that the vote of Tilinois, in the Chicago Convention, will be cast for Hou. Abe Lincoln, for President. It is also settled that the vote of Pennsylvania will be cast for Hon. Simon Came- ron, and it may be stated as almost certain that the vote of Ohio will be given to Salmon P. Chase. The Iowa de- | legates, it is said, are also for Mr, Cameron. Sewarp’s Cuances.—The Cincinnati Gasetle—the leading republican paper of Ohio—says that ‘Mr. Seward will not run to good advantage in any of the doubtful States. ‘The West is not favorable to his election.” Seward’s chances appear very shaky just at this time, ‘Tas Union Santiment.—OConservative Union meetings have been recently held in several of the counties of Ten- Beasce. The conservative men of Tennessee are generally in favor of Joba Beli for President. Nor Parncvtar.—An opposition meeting held at Dan- ville, Kentucky, on the 16th inst., to appoint delegates to a State Convention to be held on the 23d of February next, instructed ite delegates in reference to the recommenda- tion of a candidate for the Presidency, ‘‘ that we wil earnestly and cordially support our own fellow citizen, Hon. J. J. Crittenden, or Everelt, or Winthrop of Massa- chusetts, Fillmore of New York, Sharkey of Mississippi, Bell of Tennessee, or any other true patriot whose devo- tion to the Union of the States is unquestioned.’ Tho meeting further resolved that the opposition party of Kentucky will “redress her wrongs inside of the Union, ‘and not out of it.” Her A. Wax.—Tho Norfolk Herald says:—From un- mistakeable indications we feel sure that the Virginia de- legation to Charleston will be a unit for Wise. R. M. T. Howrar.—The democrats of Essex county, Va., have declared in favor of their distinguished countryman, Senator Hunter, for the Presidency. Masaacuvserts Repvsiican Convenrion.—At a meeting of the Republican State Committee of Massachusetts, it was voted to call a Convention, to be held at Worcester,on the ‘7th of March next, to choose delegates at large to the re- publican National Convention at Chicago. Execrion at Wumeiino.—The municipal election took place at Wheeling, Va., on the 23d inst. Andrew Wilson, democrat, was elected Mayor over N. Wilkinson, whig. Smith McDonald was chosen sergeant. Iwportation or Staves mvto Kentucky.—By a statute passed in 1893, the importation of slaves into Kentucky for purposes of traffic was forbidden. A bill has been in- troduced into the Kentucky Legislaturo repealing 80 much of this law as remains upon the statute book. The pro- posed measure excites much opposition. The Frankfort Commonwealth says that if the law is repealed, the gates will be opened for all the felons and insubordinate slaves of Virginia and Maryland. Arrival of the Quaker City. ‘The steamship Quaker City, Captain Shufeldt, arrived this morning at one o'clock from Havana, having left that port on Wednesday, 26th inst., at five o’clook P.

Dramatic a4 Musical Matters. Toe third concert of the .”biiharmoaic Soctety of New York vil! be given at the AC@demy of Music on the evening of Saturday, 11th February, The rehearsal wil take piace on the afternoon of Wednesday, Feb. 1, and on the evening of the concert. ‘The Opera season at the Academy of Musi¢ wil begin this week, The official announcements will be found in nother part of this paper, The main attractions of the Scason will be the appearance of Adelina Patti im several roles which she has not as yet eung in the metropolis, and the performance of ‘Der Freiscbuta” (in Italian) for the first time at the Academy. The past week of the Opera, +t the Boston Academy, is said to have beeu highly succeseful. For the beneflt of Signor Brigholi, «n Tucaday, there was a graad Programme, including the Favorila,” with Gnzzaniga, Briguoli, Amodio and Ferri. After the opera was performed the Garibaldi Rataplan, grand: Italian national march, composed by Muzio, aung by Colson, Gazzaniga, Mme. Strakosch, Brignoli, Stigelli, Ferri, Amodio, Junca, Susini, Dubreuil, with grand chorus, and the instrumental part by a full orchestra. On Wednesday Adelina Patti sang, for the frst timo, Elvira in the “ Puritani,” and made another immense hit. The Journal says:— The inevitablo result of announcing Miss Patti, as it seems, was apparent in an immense house on Wednesday night. It may be considered something of an achieve- ment for one #0 young, and comparatively unknown, to draw ten of the largest audiences ever assembled in the Opera house in one season, and this verdict of public ap- Se corroborates and sustains that of the critic i's success om this occasion was beyond all antici- pation. As an actress and vocalist, nothing desirable ‘was left undone by her. In the réle of Kivira, Bosio acoomplished one of her greatest triumphs, and we can recall in none of her successes an approach to the success Patti achieved. Young and potite, she has just the physique to represent the character; herein lies a portion of the success of Patti. Notbing can exceed ie artless and innocent simplicity ot her acting in the betrothal scone. It was nature exemplified by an intu- itive end sympathetic understanding of the emotions re- quired—an adoption of the joys and anxiety of the person represented. e shall not quickly forget the joyous murmuring of the song—“Son Vergin Vezzosa," in the first act, or the vivid picture of a mind bereft of reason, which tho climax of that act presented. The audionce testifed their approval by a double recall before the curtain, and a plentiful showering of bouquets. On Friday was given “Der Freischutz,"’ with Berlioz’s new recitatives. Madame Colson sang Agatha; Madame Strakosch Annetta; Siguor Stigelli Max, and Signor Junoa Caspar, The opera attracted a fall house, and the performance Is salt to have been one of the most successful of the season. On Sunday (last evening) there was to be a sacred con eert, in which Miss Patti was aonounced to cing “ With verdure clad’’ (The Creation), “Hear ye, Israel!” (Elyah), and with Mme. Strakosch, the duet * Quid est homo” (Stabat Mater). The fit of Miss Patti is announced for to morrow. ‘Tho reopening of the Opera house in the Metrop: lis is avxiously looked forward to by the habitués, and the prespects of the season, which will be a vory short one, Drilliont in the the extreme ‘The city theatres are all doing an excellent business. ‘The attrac:ion of Mr. Bourcicault’s play, “Jeanie Deans,” continues unabated; Lavra Keeue’s theatre ia crowded every night, and it will be continued in the bitstill farther notice. ‘The “Romance of a Poor Young Maun’? at Wal Jack’s has made ap undoubted success, andvis announced to be continued during the week. ‘ Lesbia,”’ atthe Winter Garden, bas not obtained a success 80 pronounced as that of the other plays ebove named, but has attracted large audiences. It is to be acted vo night and to-morrow night, and will then be withdrawn from the bills. On Wednes- day night the theatre will be closed to prepare for the production of a new dramatic version of ‘ Oliver Twist,’’ which will be produced on Thursday, with Matilda Heron as Nancy Sykes; Mr. J. W. Wallack, Jr., as Fogan; and Mr. George Jordan as Bill Sykes. Cooke's cireus, at Niblo’s Garden, is having a great success, the theatre being crowded to excess on the occasion of every performance, morning or evening. For this even- ing there are some new attractions, the chief of which is the Arabian horse Zaideo, trained and exhibited by Ella Zoyara. The Brothers Hanlon will perform some novel gymnastic feats, and there will be a now comic piece to conclude the programme, At the Broadway Boudoir the Webb Sisters have been quite successful. The company here has been strength- ened by the addition of Mr. W. O’Niel, a very clever Irish comedian, who will play this evening in ‘Ireland as it Was.” In the afterpiece, “‘Woman’s Whims,” Miss Ada ‘Webb will perform six characters. At both the Old and the New Bowery theatres ‘The Octoroon’’ bas been very successful, and it will be con- Unued in the bills of both houses during the week. At the Old Bowery it will be played to-night, with “Ben Liel” (The Son of the Night), capital drama. At the New Bowery, a local farce, called ‘The Midnight Conspirators,”” ‘will be acted, with “The Octoroon.’” At Barnum’s Museum, the very clever comedy, “A ‘Hlsbend to Order,’’ will be acted to-night; the “Vermont ‘Wool Dealer’’ (Yankee piece), is also announced. “The Octoroon”’ is announced to be brought out on Thursday. At George Christy’s Minstrels, Niblo’s Saloon, the popu- lar farce ‘(New Year’s Calls’ has been reinstated in the bills. The Bryants’, 472 Broadway, present s good pro- gramme, with a farce, the title of which, “Who Struck Billy Patterson?” is suggestive of something entertain. ing. . ‘The fifth performance of the new subscription at the ‘Theatre Francais, will take place to-morrow evening. ‘The company, under Mr. Maunstein’s administration, en- Joys the favor of the habitués to a greater extent than any of its predecessors.

Wolfsobn, “ Only One Soul,’”’ has been produced with success. Gothe’s celebrated tragedy,‘ Faust,” has been performed twice. Mr. Fallenbach sustained the parts of Faust on one night and Mephistopheles on the other, very well. For the benefit of Mrs. Meaubert, the melodrama of “* The Fairy of the Stars” was performed last Wednes- dayg@nd drew & crowded house. On Wednesday next the comic opera by Adam, ‘The Postilion of Longjumeau,” ‘will be given for the benefit of Mr. Herwig, the conductor of the orchestra, Mrs. Ellen Key Blunt will give a reading of pathetic ‘and sacred poem: at the rooms of the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association, 817 and 819 Broadway, this evening. ‘Mrs. Blunt’s talent as an elocutionist has been cordially acknowledged by the best critics of the day, and she de- serves the most cordial support at the hands of the public. is Mr, and Mrs. George Vandenhoff’s readings at Hope Chapel are among the most agreeable of metropolitan en: tertainments. The final soirées of these clever artists are announced for this week. ‘Tamataes Esxwurrr.—The Boston theatre will be Opened on Tuesday week with Mrs. John Wood as the star. Mr. James R.

At the New Orleans Varicties the season bad been a very successful one. ‘Dot’ was played during six weeks. Mr. Sam Cowell’s benefit and last appearance at the Boston Museum was announced for Friday. Mr. Cowell was to play, with Mr. W. Warren, in “Box and Oox.”” The California papers announce the début of Mr. Hackett, who eppeared at the American theatre, San Francisco, on the 2d January, and was enthusiastically received by a.crowded house. At Philadelphia, last week, the public was regaled with the Fronch Opera (Darcy premiére chan- tewe) atthe Academy. A Miss Wissler made her début, which, the Press says:—'‘Was waited for with intense anxiety. Of her voice and method we have often spoken— grand, majestic, and expressive, it soared over the house 2 delicious melody. Miss Wissler looks exceedingly well in male attire, walks well, and for one who for the first (ime trod the boards, displayed great self-possession.”’ At the Walnut the Cooper Opera troupe (English) sang the “Trovatore,”” Miss Annie Milner as Leonora. Mr. Bowler, as the Troubadour, sang very sweetly. ‘Tar Huns of re Lats Senator Broperiox.—Immodi- ately after the death of the late Senator Broderick the question turned upon the point whether he had mades ‘will or not, and who were his heirs, if any. Some few weeks clapeed and no one appeared to claim an interest in the late Senator’s personal property or real estate. We bave since learned that Robert and John Broderick, first cousins of the late Senator, from the fact that their father ‘and the late Senator’s father were brothers, now claim heirahip in the estate. In addition to the above heirs we have additional ones, in the persons of David Colbert and bis brothers and sisters, of Chicago, who claim to be second cousins to the late Senator. Jersey City News.
