Young, vigor- ous and prosperous beyond parallel in the world’s history, daily expanding its territory, increasing its population and multiplying its re- sources, the republic, to the external observer, presents a most magnificent example of the be- nefits of her institutions, cherished and sup- ported by « happy, industrious, patriotic and united people. But beneath this fair outside there lurks a hidden danger, which threatens, ‘ before many years have paseed away, to over- throw the fabric, and bury in Its ruins the liber- ties so dearly earned with the blood of our an- cestors. It would be idle to deny that in the present position of our political affairs the dissolution of the confederacy is more than probable. The country is onthe eve of that great struggie— that sectional conflict which was initiated by | the old-fashioned abolitionists twenty-five years ago, and the first fruits of which were pre- dicted by Mr. Cuathoun immediately be- fore he died. That accomplished and fur-seeing statesman declared that the already divided the Baptist, the Methodist and the Pres- byterfan churches, would in due course of time break up all the political parties of the day. And we find that this question did divide and ruin the old whig party, that it killed the Know | Nothing or American orgé@nization, and that now it has given the death blow to the once powerful and well drilled demecratic party.

Breckinridge and Lincela will have the electoral votes: the other candi- dates will enjoy the empty honor of running for the Presidency ond being beaten. The line has been drawn between the two sections of the country, and the struggle for political suprema- cy on the part of the North, and political equali- ty on the part of the South, has already com- meneed. If we look for the origin of this unhappy quarrel—one that threatens to destroy the in- stitutions which the heroes of ‘76 fought for and bequeathed to ns—we find it in the social theo- ries which have been so industriously dissemi- nated in the North to the prejudice of the South. The founders of the republic recog- ined the institution of slavery as it then existed li the States. The institution is sanctioned y the organic law of the land, and protected in the States where it exists by the constitution of the United States. In the course of time the New Fngland and Middle States abolished slavery— not from any moral or religious scra- . bat simply and solely because it did not In the South the institution has become ar engrafted npon the political, and embed- in the social syetem, that its abolition is a matte *r of impossibility, unless the South is abo- as well. You may te p the tree by the roots, but you cannot i trim, bend rv break it. This, however, is not the view which was held by certain philosophers who commenced the abolition movement twenty-five yeare ago. believed that they had a special mission the social system, North and South, to and they began by slow degrees id up a party to carry out their inten- Forgetting that the founders of the go ment guaranteed equal ts to all the States, the abolition party mpted, and stil! to set ! nterfere with the domestic iaeti- of the South, and to de © the people section of their property by force of wns, Along with this idea, they have taken ip ia turn the particular folly or delu which ruled the hour, such as spiritualism, free love, agrarianiem, Fourieriem, women's rights. and so on, until they have revived all the exploded theories of the last tea centuries pretending that they are new and fiportant veries fn social sctence. As one party another was bre y the agitation of the slavery e abolitionists gathered in recruits to their ranks, and pro- mised rich rewards to the decayed politicians, no matter from which side of ‘the house they came. The orators and writers of the new party have been as violent as the leaders of the sons cvlottes in the time of the Freach Revoln tion. They have denounced the South as a section of the country inhabited by barbarians and pi+ afte rates. No term of obloquy or reproach has been spared when the South was alluded to. Ac- cording to the accounts of Sumner, Seward and Wendell Phillips, Southerners are as cruel 88 the cannibals of the South Sea, as uncivilized as 2 Kaffir, and as depraved as the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah. While the more mode- rate of the republicans have been attempting to conceal the true issues which will grow out of their theories, the radical section of the party has been throwing red-hot shot into the South- ern camps until the present moment, when the conflagration is on the point of @reaking out. The natural consequences of this line of con- duct may be readily perceived. The violence of the abolitionists in the North has reacted upon the South, which demands protection for its local institutions, an equal share in the go- vernment, and the recognition of its constitu- tional righta. Failing to receive all this at the hands of the North, the South claims, as the last resort, the right to secede peaceably and quietly from the Union. ‘That is the real state of the case as it stands. And now it remains for the conservative men of the Middle and Western States to say whut course shall be taken to avert the danger that threatens the country. The question is a most important one. It is far above any party con- siderations. The matter has goue so far that the politicians have no longer any control over it. Atsuch 9 time every man should eonsult interests which are above personal preferences and party ties. We need not paint the horrors which would result from the dissolution of the Unicon, We need not point to the inevitable money panic, the breaking down of the com- mercial, mining and manufacturing interests of the nation. All this will suggest itself to the mind ofevery man who has anything at stake in the country. We may, however, suggest that the ouly way by which the peace of the country cau be preserved is by uniting all the opposition against Lincola upon one candidate, and that candidate the one who alone is sure of the Sonthern States. If the conservative mer of the North can be aroused to a sense of their danger, #0 as to combine for Mr. Breckin- ridge, then Lincoln may be defeated; but, on the other hand, if the black republican candidate should be elected, we can expect nothing but renewed and more bitter agitation, ending final- 1y in the disruption of the confederacy and con- eeqnent downfall of the republic. Men and brethren, ponder upon these things! Tar Apyent or a Prixce—-The Japanese have come and gone; the Great Eastern has come, and is about to go; Heenan has arrived without the belt, and has received no dinner; and cur telegraphic intelligence, published in this day's HexaLp, announces that the Queen of England's eldest son, who sailed from that country on the 10th inst. for this country, has artived at St. Johns, whence he will proceed to Quebec.

On leav- ing his royal mother’s dominions and crossing the frontier into the United States, at Niagara Falls, he will doff the royal title, and, donning that of Lord Renfrew, he will come among us in the capacity of a private gentleman, to get a peep at the inside of the great couatry which his great grandfather lost some cighty-five years ago. At bome he was alive prince, an em- bryo king; here he will.be only an equal among equals, on the republican level—a private gentleman, who, like any other well bred youth, will be treated as euch, if he conducts himself in a gentlemanly man- ner, a3 it is to be presumed he will. The fact of bie being a lord docs not necesearily prevent his being a gentleman, though it seems the char- acter cf a prince is incompatible with that posi- tion. We have been visited by a great many lords for the last twenty years, including Lord Mor- peth (afterwards Karl of Curlisle), who made some excellent speeches and got some capital dinnere. Why should not Lord Renfrew, in his private capacity, get some good dinners, and make s epeech or two! Or, if he cannot do that, the Duke of Newcastle can make speeches for him, expatiating on the enlen'e cordiale between the cousins BullandJonatban. Ky all means let a banquet be got up in New York for the Prince of Wales—we mean Lord Renfrew. He is bet- ter cntitied to the honor than many others who have received festivities at our bonds.

Tie Wasusveros Histours Jo.—It appears from the Comptroller's report, presented to the Board of Aldermen on Monday, that the nice little eum of sixteon thousand dollars is required already by the Commissioners appointed by the last Leg gislaty ure to lay out the city north of 155th street into streets, roads and avenues: so that this uanecessary and expeasive job has fately commenced.

He knew that it was not necessary for him there, in the midst of old friends and constituents who had known every step of his public career, to deny the absurd charge that he was a disunionist; but it was meet that from that spot where political opponents could most easily send forth a denial of his words if they were untrue, he should deny the accusation before the whole country. Short as tho speech is, there are other points well put, and well worthy of attention. He sought not the nomination, but the nomination sought bim, and being in, he feels that the posi tion he occupies to-day is right, and he accepts it with all ite responsibilities, con~-"ous that he is not animated or sustained by & hot ambition. Tle exposes the absurdity of culling a conven- tion composed of delegations from « majority of the States, including the two on the Pacific, Peunsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts, a sectional convention; and he claims that our double form of government, State and federal, has been the most succes#fal in demonstrating that free institutions may be established over a great population and a large area of territory consistently with public or- der, aud that the constitution and the equality of the States should therefore be preserved. Weed supports the Five Points House of In- dustry, and that the moon is made of green cheese. As it is, we are inclined to believe that if Weed will only begin the work by emoking out Cassidy & Co., ov vice versa, Gree- ley will be a happy man. Ravostacas Corgurrios anp Repvsitcay Sqvanutes.— We all know by repeated expe- riences that the republican party is utterly cor- rupt everywhere that it exercises any power. We have seen ite gross corguption in Wisconsin and in Maine, and the unparalleled infamy of the late republican Albany Legislature is fresh in our minds, and not likely soon to be forgotten. The republicans have had very little chance yet to employ their propensity for plunder and corruption, except at Washington in the or- ganization of the House last session, and the election of Clerk, Printer, and the other subor- dinates of Congress; and on that occasion it was displayed after a fashion which gives an excellent foretaste of what it will be under more favorable circumstances. The republican politicians began by squabbling among them- selves as to how they should cheat the public, and who was to have the spoils; and now that the spoil has been apportioned out, it appears they are fighting among themselves again about how they can cheat each other, and which of them ie to grab the largest share of the plunder. Thus we sec Defrees suing Ford for a breach of agreement regarding the prefits of the House printing, and Larscombe and English taking out an injunction agvinst him. There seems to be a general fight ali round among the epoilsmen ; but we fear that the old adage, which says that when rogues fall out honest men come by their own, wil! not hold good in this instance, for the treasury is sure to be plundered in any case. Almost from the very moment when the elec- tion of Clerk and Printer was secured by the republicans, the equabbling began. Torney commenced by appointing his own friends to the subordinate offices in his gift, to the exclu- sion of republicans, and this led to a quarrel with Sherman, who thought that, as the republi- cans bad elected Forney, ia return for his treach- ery they wore entitled to a share of the patronage, and the Clerk was obliged to yield. In one in- stance a republican, who had been promised a certain place before the election, was refused by Forney, who gave the berth to a friend; and he at once complained to Sherman. Mr. Sherman asked, with astonishment, “Didn't he give you that place which he pro- mised?” snd then added, with an im- precation consigning Forney to eternal perdi- tion, “I will see about it.” And he did see about it; for Forney put out his own partisan, and at once put in Mr. Sherman's. But the campaign of republican spoil hunting is only beginning.’ If Lincoln is elected, he will bring down with him from the Northwest a horde of greedy locusts, euch as never swoop- ed upon the public treasury before. However, the corruption of the republican party does not justify that of the party in power. It cannot whitewash such gross mal- feasance as the defulcation in the New York Post Offite, aud that in the Post Oflice of New Orleans, and other notorious cases. There is corruption enough in both parties; but if the republicans get into power, they will come hungering from abstinence, and fresh for the operation of ‘blood-sucking. Tox Taovsaxp Dorsans A Dav vor Exren- TAINIVG TH Jaranvsk.—The joiat commitiee of the Boards of Aldermen and Councilmen who had the Japanese in charge have the modesty to ask the Comptroller to appropriate $105,000 for their expenses during the ten days’ visit of the Embassy—just $10,500 a day—an expendi- ture the items of which they do not condescend to lay before the public. We trust, however. that not a dollar will be paid until every bill is carefully scratinized, and the public can be informed by what sys- tem of gross extravagance this enormous sum was made away with by the Aldermen and Councilmen in question. A sum of $30,000 was originally appropriated for the reception of the Japanese, and that should have been quite suficient. The Lelands undertook to board the entire Embassy at the Me- tropolitan Hotel in suitable fashion, and it fs admitted at all hands that they did so. Their bill, of course, onglit to be the heaviest fiom of expenditure; aud though we have not Deon informed of the amount of their demand, we are pretty certain that it by no means swallows up the whole appropriation. What became of the balance? Tow were the other seventy thousand dollars disposed oft On the entrance of the Embassy to the city the grandest part of the display was furnished by the military, without any remnneration; the carriages and yellow gloves of the Aldermen could hardly have absorbed more than five or ten thousand dollars, even at Aldermen's prices, To be sure, there was the grand ball. which waz s0 abominably mismanaged by the Chesterfields of the Corporation. We do not know how much the bills for that footed np; but the Japanese were the recipients of two private entertain- ments, of the most elegant and costly kind, during their sojourn here, and the expense of Orn Aprroacutye Stare Exxcrions.—The preliminary ekirmishes to the great Presiden- tial battle will soon begin. North Carolina will lead of in her election for Governor on the 2d of August. But this election will not amount to much, as it is fought upon local issues, and as the democracy are united and working as @ unit to carry the day, without re- gard to the Presidential eplit in the party. But the next elections, viz: those of August 6, in Kentucky and Missouri, will be of some im- portance, for in each of these two States there is, even upon their local concerns, a split among the democracy, whereby the Bell-Everett party may, perhaps, carry off the prizes in both these local contests. Such a result, however, will not be decisive as to the vote of Missouri or Ken- tucky on the Presidential issue. On the con-" trary, we apprehend that between August and November there will come up from the “cotton States” such a pressure of Southern sentiment as will rally all the border slave States to tho ticket of Breckinridge and Lane. In Soptember Maine and Vermont hold their Stete elections, and as the demo- eracy of these two States have taken up Mr. Douglas and equatter sovereigaty to work upon, the result of the experiment in both cases will be of some value as a positive indication of the strength or weakness of Mr. Douglas ond his cause throughout the North. The local and Congressional elections in Towa, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania of the 9th of October, however, will be simply deci- sive of the Presidential contest. As the pros- pect stands to-day, it is all on one side, like the handle of a jug—all in favor of Lincoln. It will require a wonderful amount of engineering, heavy grading, tunnelling, embankments, bridges. excavations, &c., to make a track over the mountains and valleys of Pennsylva- nia sufliciently broad and smooth for the wrangling democracy to travel over, all in the same train aod by the same locomotive, to the work of their October election. They must, however, contrive to come to- gether in October, or the chances will be as ten to one against them in November. The Pennsylvania October election in 1860, as in 1856, will in all probability settle the Presidential question. Hence, unless all the remnants of the old democratic party are ready to be buried in the same grave with the old whig party and the old Roman empire—which is the grave that knows no resurrection—why, then, Donglas men and Breckinridge men, in the State and out of the State of Pennsylvanta, will go to work to save that State in her coming October election.
