However true may have been the representations by the press not very long ago, that Mieninn! yt not go with the secemrion movemout, the ease is now different, I ove “ short revolving moon’? there has been & mort tremendous revolution in feeling, aod I do ot think anything can stop the current which i now rushing, angry sod swollen, through the longth and Breadth of the State, and eweeping everything before (2, even to the last remnant of conservatiom. Those who Wore Union saving old line whige two Weeks sgo, ia tho ante election days, have joined the young blood and ar- dent youth of their State, and go beart and band for « Southern confederacy. 1 cannot picture to myself any more en Ubosiaam in the days of °%6, when mem gave up ibeir lives to weld that silver cord which now, alas, is ‘mapped. And tt certataly is sad to reflect upon the causes which have operated t drive things to such extremes. Where was the necessity ? We of the South cannot un- derstand how the repeal of the Missour! compromise to- Bioted any injury om the North if Kansas were today asiave State, the commerce of the North would bo as secure and flourishing as itever bas been. And all the South wanted was the establishment of the principle that slavery could be introaueed into the Territories. Grant the prinoipie, which 1a fair, and then seo how it would work. Slavery, like water, would flad its level. Kansas never could have contiaued a slave State, simply beeanso there ie no necessity for negro labor. Missouri is fast becoming a free state, for no other reason, aad would now be free if Northe: fanaticism bat pot meddied with this dangerous question of slavery. Perseoution invariably produces obstiaacy, aod there cen be no doubt that the course pareued by the North has materially retarded the caure of free dom for the negro, Operating upou that peculiar feature jo bumen vatare which will always “kick against toe goad,” it has pot only produced « more stringent legisla. Uon for the negro—siave and free—at the South, but bas positively reopened the slave trate, of which, other. wise, the South never would have dreamed. But this bas beem writtea and spoken # thousand times, ani preaching is now, Iam afraid, too late. To return to events bere We had a meeting last night for the organization of Minute Men, which was largely ‘ana enthasiaatically attenced, A very large number was enrolled, how many I cannot precisely say; bus I think I do not exaggerate when I say have im this city at least five hucdred excellent rifle shota incorporated Other arms are equally well attenced to, Cavalry corps are being rapidly organized, and the artillery, to which I beleovug, is incroasing ite efficiency. The Legislature, which has just adjourned its regalar sersion, will soon bold an extra session for the purpose of taking dectded steps towards seccasion, We are iu earnest; and though business may suffer for e while, we are not in the least do- terred. Everyboay is arming, doctors, lawyers, planters, merchant#, and the ladies are as entousiastic a8 the mon. The old patriotic fre has been reitiumed and burns strong ly apd vigorously, Patriotic? Way not? What is patriot tem but the defence of our own and ovr neighbor’s rights, lives apd property from the attack of any maranding bane? If we flinoh or quai! now what may we not expect from the fiinty heart and inexorable will of the North? What but John Brown raids, widespread tncendiartem, negro ipeurrections and & country dreuched in the biood of our wives apd children? Thero ts nothing for it but to stand to our arms and trust to God’s help and the justice of our cause.

Why is ths so? 1 apewer, their institutions hae been destroyed.
