H. Seward the Panic Maker. The premonitory symptoms of a financial re- | Yulsion are upon us. We feel them here—they are visible everywhere. They are the natural results of the foreshadowed election of Abra- baw Lincoln as our next President, andin view of the sweeping political revolution which will surely follow bis election. What this revolu- noo will be no man can predict; what it may be bus beeo very broadly disclosed in the “one idea” which has pervaded the late campaign speeches of Mr. Seward, to wit: the suppression of the Southern institution of African slavery. To accomplieh this work he bas proclaimed it to the worid that a single repudlican adminis- tration will suffice, We are not, therefore, sur- prised (o learn that, accepting Mr. Seward as | the great exponnder of the republican party, and beheving that slave property is in peril, the susvehoiders of the border sluve States are eelling off thetr eluves at @ reduction of from twenty five to fifty per cent on their prices of a few months ago. No rational man can doubt that all this may be truly charged to the anticipated elecrion of Liveoin, and the practical inauguration of the | “irrepressible conftict” at Washington. Ove of our black republican cotemporaries, howev | er, throws the responsibiliry upou the Soushern | disunioniste, He tells us that the Richmond | Whig and Raleigh Register, aud other iofuen | tial Southern journals, charge thal the object of the seceders from the Charleston Conveation | was, by breaking up the democratic party, “to dissolve the Union, in order to reopen the Afri- cau slave trade, and bring down the value of negroes, that the profite upon cotton might be higher.” Next, it appears from the Valley Star, | 4 Virginia Donglas paper, that on account of the | nion clamor of the cotton planters, * Vir- | pinta ia already having # foretaste of what is to | comes’ that No. 1 negroes have already fallen more than twenty-five per cent, and second end third rate bande from forty to fifty per cent.” Improving upon these alleged achievements Sontbern disaniouists, our repavlican co- y in question eays thot “ another effect disuniow agitation has been to damage Southern mereantie eredit in New York and | other Norther cites, and in this way to compel Southern bankiog institutions to curtail, and in some places to cease their discounts and accom. modations.” But ibe question bere recurs: How | is it that these Southern diennionists are capable of doing #0 much mischief? The answer is very simple. This mischiet is due to the widely ex- teuded belief among the people of the Sontaera States that a black republican trinmph in this Presidential contest will be the inauguration of ® revolutionary policy in the federal govern- ment, which, sooner or later, must put aa end to African slavery, or drive the Southern States out of the Union, and into the experiment of a | separate Southern confederacy. | But what is there in this threatened revolu- | tionary policy calculated to drive the Southern States out of the Union. Let John Browu’s | foray; let Helper’s book and its one hundred leading republican endorsers; let Spooner, Lovejoy, Sumner and Wilson, answer. But more directly to the purpose, the campaign speeches of Mr. Seward will aford the requisite | explanation. He has made the Northern tour, | trem Maine to Kansas, in behalf of Lincoln's election; and from his speeches at various points along this extensive line of travel, we find that after Lincoln's election there will be no more slave Territories, no more slave States; that free States by the dozen will be or- ganized and admitted; that the Supreme Court of the United States will be reconstructed oa the side of “freedom;” that the “freedom of speech” will be eaforced throughout the Union. abclition emirsaries and all; and that, in a word, under the pressure of the Northern abolition boa constrictor, the institn'ion of Southern sia very will be crushed to death under Lincoln's administration. This panic, therefore, in the South, and these | symptoms of « geseral foancial revulsion, are | due to the preachiogs and teachings of Seward, as che tounder and great apostie of the repub lican party. He is the panic maker. Nor caa we comprehend how we can possibly escape a general financial earthquake in the event of Lincoln's election. The laet extremity of dis- union may be put off for several years; bat with the deetraction of the Southern in@ustrial and financial basis of two thousand millioas of dollars in slave property, such a state of po- lidcal, sectional, financial and commercial chaos will follow as to render the Union in a few | years utterly worthless to all parties concerned. For these times of trouble, then, for this panic which existe among Southern slavehold- ere, and for these apprehensions of coming evil in Wall atreet, let the responsibility rest where it belonge—upon the republican party ond ite programme for the suppression of sla- very. and upon W. HL. Seward, the great ex- pounder of this party. The promises of mode- ration and peace from other republican leaders in behalf of Lincoln may disgust the honest wnti slavery wen of bis party, but these prom- their absorption. ines come too late to restore confidence to the | covnury.

The Union is rapidly drifting to diesvintion, like 4 canoe above the Falls of Niagara with a crew of stoical Indians on board-- some of whom, wrapping themselves up i then blankets, resign themselves to their doom; while some, too stupid or too much engrossed with other objects vo see the danger. laugh and sing and act as if they were on 4 party of pleasure. Such is the manner in which the etateemen of the North are acting in thik great crisis of the country’s fate. They have scarcely yet begun to realize the perilous situation in which they have placed themselves and the people. But the current of eveuts moves swittly em, carrying them sad all others with it towards the dreadful cataract. It will be seen that the South are arming aud Preparing for the eruggie; that committees of safety and bands of Munte Men, after the fashion of the Revolution of 1776, are being orgamzed iw Virginia and South Carolina, aud that Lincoin’s election will be deemed the sig- nal for swiking the blow that will split this confederacy into twe equal halves. One writer from Charleston denounces the Union as “bellieh,” and says he will throw up bis com mission in the navy if Lincoln should be elected. Alubama and Sonth Carolina are already pledged by their Legisiatures to make this point their casus belli; wad the Governor of Louisiana says it will be a just cause of seces- sion, but advises the holding of a Southern Convention to concert the necessary measures. Auvother writer in Virginia couosels the same course, in order that by combination and or- ganization the seceding States may be ready io make an effectual etand if Lincoln should be elected. We aleo pubiish an address of similar import to the people of Carroil county, Missuetppi. The Richmond Enquirer argues tat there is no legal Union in existence now inwmuch ws eleven Northern States retase to carry out the provision of the constitution relating to the Fogitive Slave law; and the coustivution, according to Mr. Webster, is the ouly bond of the Union. in Iowa the fanatical » | republicaus have grown 60 rampant that the Cobservatives iutead to migrate trom the State it Lincoln should be elected. The most alarm- jog feature of the revojutiouary sentiment ut- tered North and South is that the people are wbead of the polivcians, many of whom are Going their best tw keep them back, but in vain.

From all the sources of intelligence to which tigu of the times, it appears highly probable that @ cousideralie number of the Southern Stetes will withdraw from the Union betweea the period of Mr. Linvola’s election and that assigged for his inauguration. If ouly two withdraw they will be followed by others, and at twat by ull, tf any attempt ehould be made to coerce them by armed force. In thas contin- gency the Cupitol, with all the public records, archives and State papers in the departments, wouwd jail to the Jot of the Southern coafedera- cy, tor the District of Columbia would then be within its territory, and the Northern States would be shut out from Washingwa. Thus the prestige ot the National Captcol, as well as the national wealth, would be with the South, and « Northern Congress would be only a Rump Parliament. The Evglish and French govern- ments would at once recognise the independence of the South and court its triendship, fur the sake of its cotton and a murket for their manufactures, for five mil- lions of British population are depending oo Southern cotton for employment. While the balance of trade would be against the Northern confederacy, and it would be com- peiled to resort to direct taxation to support the government, the Southern confederacy would derive an abundant revenue {rom ite im- porta. Of the whole products of the couatry exported, amounting to $278,000,000, it is ascertained that the South supplies $220,000,000, while the North furnishes only $60,000,000. The balance of exports is so mixed up that it is dificult to determine what proportions of it ought to be assigned to each section; but it is safe to assume that at least twenty milions of it belong to the South, whose whole exports would thus be $240,000,000. This would be an ample basis for $200,000,000 of exports, which, at a reduced tariff of twenty per cent, would bring a revenue of $40,000.000, which would be quite sufficient for the expenses of the go- vernment. The best part of the Northern popu: | | lation would migrate to the South, and very soon the numbers, instead of being eighteen mil- lions North against nine millions South, will be | reversed. Manufactures would be established in the South with Northern capital, and the North would become “8 waste, howling wilderness.” | The shipping of New York would rot in the docks, and the grass would grow in its streets. Real estate, now ao valnable, would be reduced | to ten per cent of its value. If the North should resort to the Quixotic enterprise of compelling the fifteen Southern States to unite with them again, it would re- quire at least an etmy of 100,000 men to make any impression on the South. Their equipment would cost $100,000,000. Where would the North get the money? It could not raise it, while the South could borrow to any extent on the security of its staples. It was on the pledge of Southern tobacco and rice that our government made its first loan in Europe from a French banker. Cotton was then of small account; but now that cotton is king, and cotton is specie, how is the value of Southern securities increas- ed. The black legions alone, armed and head- ed by their masters, without the white popule- tion etriing © blow, would be more than a match for any Northern Puritanical hordes | The Presidential Comtest—Extraordinary who would venmre to cross Mason and Dixon’s line. Wf they would ever reach it with the fire of the Northern conserva tive population in their rear, it is safe to affirm that they would never return, but would find hoepitable and bloody graves in the sunny South, Such would be the inevitable fate of the ¢xpedition of the modern Roundbeads againat the eavaliers, The vaunt of Northern coercion, therefore, is but idle mockery, and no sane statesman or soldier wouid dresin of euch folly, In any oase prevention is better than cure; but in the event of there States being severed, no bumea power Can ever reunite them. The wise and the patrintic policy, therefore, for Northern men isto prevent the catastrophe, not by fire aud sword, but at the bu llot box, by overthrow- ing there the revolutionary republican party, which ie the sule cause of the present alarming attitude of the South, and will be the canse of the disunion, if the Souchern States should secede, But even if there should be no secesion, and if the inauguration of Lincoln should be per- mitted in the event of his election, for the next four years there would be a most terrible con- flict between the North and the South, and the most extreme excitement, for in that case the South would have to defend its social instimtions and material interests against the dominant party of the North, and the reault would be that the harmonious relations between the two sections would be completely disturbed, their business intercourse would he suspended, the payment of the debis of Southern merchants to Northern houses would be also suspended, and the com- mercial and manufacturing interests of the North would be reduced tornin. So that in the event of the election of Lincoln, whether secession arise out of it or not, there can be no coubt that it will entail disaster and suffering upon the North such as the country has never witneesed before. To prevent it is still in the power of the conservative elements of the North, if they will only unite in one grand, ener- getic effort, even at the eleventh hour. Governor Baygs anv Tux Boston Batt. Com MITTEE AGaIN.The great question which is now attracting the particular attention of our Eastern neighbors is whether or not there was an attempt to snub Governor and Mrs. Banks at the ball in bonor of the Prince of Wales. It has been distinctly charged that Mr. James W. Paige, the Boston Peter Cooper, and othera of the marshals having charge of the floor, slighted Mrs. Banks by not informing her before the ball in which dance she was to have the hand of the Prince; and, secondly, that they monopolized | the Prince and took him to supper without re- questing the Governor to atcompany him. It appears, now, from an attempted defence in the official organ of the committee, that the facts are as above stated—the only difference of opinion is as to the animus. As usual in such cases, the apologist makes the matter worse than it was before. We append a choice ex- tract:— ‘There wagan unfortunate contretemps connected with ‘the entrance of the Prince, his suite wad invited gaests into the supper room, which is to be regretted, not apo. logized for, since it was caused by no aot of the commit. we, and no foresight could have prevented it. The iaten- tion was to assembie the tavited guests amd proceed with rome little formality to the supper room; but when Mr. Paige suggested to the Prince shat ho should omit the dance which was about forming, as suppor would be reaty inafew minutes, the Prince desired that they go at once. Mr. Paige removstrates, stating that be wisaed to bave him accompanie’ vy the iurited guests. The Prince urged that there would be « crowd, and if they went instantly tt could be avwided.

This is a very “cute” Yankee trick to throw the blame of the affair upon the shoulders of the Prince; but it will not do, Suppose Mr. Paige bad informed the guest of the evening that it was arranged that be sbould enter with tbe Governor, does any one imagine that the Prince, with his natural tact asd yood breed- ing. would 001 have acquiesced in the proceed ing, even if there had been a “crowd’’ No; the defence dows not help the “marsbals” one iota, It looks to us as if nome of the Gover- nor’s discarded aide together with the debris of the old State street, Lowell mills fossils, had joined together in @m uttempt to slight his Bx- cellency, whom the manufacturers have always envied, and affected to look down upon, be- cwuse be has been the architect of his owa for tunes. The affair is of no great significance to the Governor, who is far above the Paiges and all the other F. F. M.'s, and it is only im- portant in a general way, ae showing that the old leavea of Puritauic exclusiveness is as strong aa ever in Boston society. Governor Banks is too superior a man to waste bis talents upon each small beer as the sclid mea of Bos- ton; 80 be wisely resolves to shake the dust of their city from off his feet, and seek in the free West a proper field for the exercise of his fine abilities. It will be many a long day before James W. Paige & Co, bave another chance to slight a Governor of Massachusetts like N. P. Banks. Tim Worty Dors Move.—Here are a few curious points in the news by the Asia:— 1. Universal suffrage is given to the people of Naples.

Let us bope that they will do uch better. Muanrtions and Presc: ¢ Positions of tne Parvies ana Cand! dat The chawges which have taken place in the revative positions of the Presidential candidates and parties during the lust six months are the most extraordinary on record, The shifting of public opinion so oftem in so short a space of ime is without @ precedent in the history of tbe country, and sbows that everything is un- ‘ed, and that Mstabidity and revolution are cbaractertetic of the times. From all the indi- caticne at the Souta, it seems evident that the chances of the Bell party are gone, and that nether he nor Doug!se will get a single electo- rul vote there while every Southern State will copcentrate upon Breckinridge as their rallying point apd centre of union, This was not the prospect tbree or four months ago. The history and canses of the change, embracing other mu- tations in the relative positious of parties, are curious and instructive. When the Bell and Everett party organized fast epring, they called themselves a Uniom party, but were regarded s old fogies behind be oge. They had no distinct issue to present to the people They were con- rervative, bke the democracy, end had no other cleim upon the public attention But when the Charleston Convention was held and had broken up in @ aplit of the democracy, then the hopes of the party were greatly ex- cited, and they nominated Bell and Everett, respectable old gentlemen like themselves, They made little headway, however, till after the action of the Chicago Convention, in reject ing Seward, created a similar split in the repub- ican party, but pot to the same extent—a breach which was greatly widened by letters dictated or writteu by Mr. Seward afier the Convention, assailing Horace Greeley, aud by Greeley’s letters in reply, and the comments of Thurlow Weed, and the abolition press and orators of New England This gave renewed conficente to the Bell party. The wound ia tbe republican party was filmed over tor a me, but not completly healed. Mesatime ‘ne Democratic Convention met again at Balti more, and there the splic was made permanent. The Bell men were in ecstacies, and, as the elections in North Carolina, Kentucky and Ala- buma showed, they niade great progress at the South, while the democratic party wad cut up there, owing to its own insane dissensions and the public disgust’ Douglas appeared to have tome large fragments adhering to him, and as if be had a good chance of ons or two Sonth- ern States. At the North the Bel! party never made any advance, but at the South they gained ground by the divisions both in the republican and democratic camps. Were it not for these eir organization would never have amouuled townything Buta change was about to come over the epirit of their dream. The elections in the Northern aud Middle States took plage, First came off the election of Maize, which used to go democratic, but which now gave its reserve vote to the republicans, endorsing their policy. This had considerable effect at the South ia driving the people to extremes there. Breckinridge gained, Beil lost ground, and Douglas was overwhelmed in the South. But meny Southern men eaid they relied still upon the Middle States, and would not give the mat- ter up. Next came the elections of Pennsylva- nia, Indiana and Obio. In all of these revolu- tiorary anti-slavery black republicanism tri- umphed, and the consequence was that the whole South was fired with excitement, and, in- stead of dividing ite support between Bail and Breckinridge, it declared almost unanimonaly tor Breckivridge alone, for two reasona—first, becaure he was the representative of the ex- tweme party at the South; and secondly, be- cause it was necessary for their own safety in the impending crisis that the people of the Southern States should become united among themselves, and have but one etandard bearer, cue policy and one front for the enemy. The republican elections have produced this result, and this on the other hand alarmed the more cautious of the republican leaders, who, like Defrees and Corwin, came out with de- clarations, saying that they were not abolitioa- iste, but coneervatives. This change io the wind produced a corresponding change, but in the epposite direction—a counter current in the republican party. The abolitionist element ia the Middle and New England States took deep ombrage, and will go for Gerrit Smith on the 6th of November—thus taking away co large portion of the republican vote that Lincoln may still be deteated. The total result of these different changes is» that Lincoln may be overthrown; and if he thould, then Breckinridge would go to the House of Representatives with the votes of the united South, while Lincoln would have nearly, but not the whole. North; Douglas would go ia third on the list, by Northern votes; and Bell, who cannot get an electdral vote, North or South, would be necessarily excluded. Thus Bell and Douglas would exchange relative positions, as a short time ago it was estimated that it was Douglas and not Bell who would be “nowhere” in the race. It is evident, there- fore, that had the Presidential election takea place before the late State elections in New England and the Middie States, the result would have beea very different from what is now calculated.
