Toat Mc. Buchanaao’s recommen- | dations will be calmly addressed to the exi- | gencies of the crisis we are confident; but what will Congrees do? Upon this interrogatory | may hang the perpetuation or the dissolution of | the Union. | The foreshadowed programme for an inde- | pendent Southern confederacy is too plausible and inviting under existing circumstances, and is too widely entertained among our Southern bretbren as the only future refuge of the South. ern States, to be treated with either derision or indifference. Itisno auswer to this Southern disunion excitement to eay that Mr. Lincola will have been constitutionally elected as our next President; that he is a conservative republican, and contemplates no eggressions upon the constitutional rights of the South. Granting al! this, we must ad- movirh his hopeful partisans that Mr. Lincoln ie but an item in the general bill of Southern grievances against the North. The difficulties to be met reach far beyond and behind the mere incident of Mr. Lincoln’s election; but it is this incident which has brought them out iato bold relief. This Northern republican party, advancing joto power at Washington upon Mr. Seward’s “one idea’’—the abolition of slavery throughout meg, cinnamon, camwood and Japan dyewoods, | the United Statee—is the danger which has lately introduced into the island, were growing finely. Native nutmegs were already onsale. The experiment of growing the plant from which Manila hemp is produced has also proved highly satisfac tory. Two Spanish brigs, supposed to be engaged in the slave trade, were brought into Kingston by O British war steamer. Three others made their escape through the inability of the steamer to pur- sue them from want of coal. The yellow fever was somewhat prevalent at Port Royal, and several Ceaths had occurred among the officers and seamen of the ravy. Aregular meeting of the Board of Aldermen took place last eveni driven the people of the South to their present alarming disunion movements. They regard this republican party as an organized crusade for the extirpation of the institution of African slavery, and they see within the Union, and under its existing sectional compacts, no hope of resisting the regular approaches of this be- Jeaguering anti-slavery army of the North. The overwhelming popular majorities by which Mr. Lincoln bas carried the bulk of the North- ern States disclose to the South a predomi nance of the Northern anti slavery sentiment, ‘The betiaess eenmend | which threatens to ride down all obstructions, was small in amount and unimportant in charac- | . : ter. ‘The time of the meeting wes taken up in| ~*#l0s next into thie eetimate the new appor- listening to a characteristic resolution offered by | onment for the popular branch of Congress, Alderman Boole, and a somewhat lengthy speech | Which will be made upon the returns of the made by Alderman Starr in defence of himself and | cepsas of 1560, Southera politicians are well colleagues in relation vo the bill for the entertain. | reception of the Japanese Embassy.

To us such aeudden and unexpected arrival at the preeent important crisis seems inexplicable, and we can only indulge in conjectures as to the cause. We were quietly supposing him ia the drawingrooms of London or the salons of lidon emissaries under federal protection, is | not the Union in danger? and what will Con- gress do to save the Union’ The crisis will, perhaps, demand a reconstruction of the very groundwork of the federal constitution, and tome satisfactory initiative steps on the part of Congrees in this direction. In this way the initiative act of secession on the part of the State Convention of South Carolina may be arrested, for that Convention will not meet until two weeks after the meeting of Congress. Otherwise, we fear that South Carolina will give the signal which will rally all the Southern States to that grand idea of an independent confederacy, comprehending the early annexs- tion of Mexico and the island of Cuba, witb the full consent of the great Western cotton consuming Powers of Europe. What, then, will Congress do to prevent the disruption of this Union? It is folly to talk of coercion. The right of a people, when tired of an existing government, “to alter or abolish it,” is proclaimed in our Declaration of Inde pendence. Every one of these United States is a sovereignty in itself, excepting only ita limited ccncessions to the general government: Nor can we discover anything in the constitu- tion authorizing coercion against a State in re- suming to iteelf these federal concessions. An attempt was made in the Convention tramiag | the constitution to incorporate this federal power of coercion against a contumacious State; but it failed, and this Union was left to the chances of harmony and conciliation among tbe several copartuers, At all events, nothing but conciliation cao save it; and itis to be hoped that, fully im- preesed with this idea, all parties and all sec tions in thie Congress will meet on Monday next prepared for any measure of conciliation calculated to maintain the Union, even to the extent, if required, of a new Constitutional Convention. CurvaLer Weps 1x an Excitement.—The Chevalier Webb is in a terrible state of alarm lest the Southern States should secede, break up the government of his friend Mr. Lincoln, and thus destroy his chances for the Austrian mission, which he was to get from Gen. Taylor. We should be very sorry if anything should bappen to spoil the Chevalier’s prospects of the miesion to Austria, after buying his gold laced coat, epaulets, cocked hat and eword;,for they are bought, and, singular enough, they are paid ior, too— a piece of information which would astonish the spirit of old Nick Biddie should it reach him in the other world. Chevalier Webb charges that it was we who made all the trouble and excitement at the South, and accuses us of misrepresenting the republican party. Now we should be very sorry to misrepresent the republican party, becauee there are a great many very clever fel- lows in it—men of good sense, intelligence and reepectability. When, during the last session of Congress, we supplied some very important ideas to the democratic party, we got nothing but abuse from them in return for our favors, and one of the Southern fireeaters even at- tempted to have our reporters expelled from the House. On that occasion a republican member— Mr. Colfax, of Indiana—bad the good sense to stand up and defend the rights of the press. We would be sorry, then, to misrepre- rent that party; and, moreover, we deny em- pbatically that we ever did misrepresent them. Whatever Mr. Lincoln’s opinions may be to- day, or whatever the opinions of Chevalier Webb are, were, or may yet be, there is no de- nying the tact that the republicans stimulated the anti slavery abolition agitation which Gar- rieon and bis confreres have been carrying on for twenty-five years, and used it to elect their Paris, strolling down Piccadilly or the Boule- vards, and deeply immersed in speculations diplomatic, political, financial, philosophic, lite- rary and platonic. We even entertained @ ebadow of suspicion that he had reopened negotiations with the government of Queen Victoria, that he had commenced hob-nobbing with Lord Palmerston again, or that he was arrapging mysterious interviews at the Tuile- ries, for the Chevalier is one whose lively antecedents lead us to expect much from him, both of the grave and gay, and we should not be a bit surprised to hear the most wonderful things about him, from some new “Courtsbip and its Consequences” to bis sudden assump- tion of the crown of Patagonia. What has the Chevalier come back for just now? Weare at a loss, we repeat, to know what it portends. Has he been commissioned by Louis Napoleon to conduct some secret ser- vice here to --—— we had better not say what? We can hardly think so. If we remem- ber correctly, be settled all his accounts with Louis Napoleon and the Napoleon family some time ago, when he failed to get an American lady to be the bride of Prince Napoleon, who had to take a daughter of Italy instead. We were about to venture a surmise that Lord Palmerston was at the bottom of this unlooked for visit; but on reflection we bardly think it worth while, for our recollections of the “New Yorker in the Foreign Office” tead us to think that he drew bis balance from that quarter, and has not opened a new account since. The Barings, we know, have extensive inte- rests in this country, and the crisis is a mat- ter in which they are much interested. Can they have sent him? A body of British bankers or stockholders may have enlisted his services to watch their interests, and see what the North and South are about at this exciting season. The Chevalier is just the man to look after a thing of that kind, for he has had so mucb and such varied experience, and seen 60 much of the world both at home and abroad, that he is a man of all parties, and no party in particular, and would therefore act like a judge who feels bimself bound to do the right thing, whether the plaintiff or defendant likes itor not. But really we should Mke to know what great purpose the Chevalier had in view when he took a berth in the Africa. A thought strikes us: Did Mr. Buchanan eend for him to proceed immediately a8 our Minister to Pekin? That may be it. Or has the Chevalier, hearing of the dangers of se- cession, come over simply to collect some important balances, i¢ he has them, before Mr. Secretary Cobb's cash box is broken up in the possible rupture with the South? Whatever his mission may be—and we feel that it is as yet shrouded ia mystery—we have no doubt that he will do it well; for al- though he has sometimes failed as well as gained, he isso shrewd « diplomatist, lit/éru- teur and man of the world, that no one could make head and tail of a riddle and the best of a bad bargain eooner than he could. Tue Commence axp Vauve or THE Great Wesrers Counrry.—We publish to-day io our columns the most complete description of the Great Plains lying on the Pacific slope, including the Pike’s Peak region, Utah and New Mexico, ever yet given to the public. Our acount combines a description of that vast country. the routes and modes of travel thereto, the productions of the different regions, the nature of the traffic, as well asthe amount of travel and the value of the import and export trade with the States developed up to thistime. Io contemplating the vastness of the resources, mineral and agricultural, which this new dis- trict of the continent commands even at this candidate—an agitation which the Journal of Commerce fathered, but backed out of, alarmed at the monster it bad raised. It was upon that agitation that Lincoln was carried into power by one section of the country, and by that sione. They used it by circulating Helper’s book, endorsed by sixty-six of their members of Congress, and by Seward himself; by cir. culating Sumnet’s abolition speeches and Love- joy’s epeech, and Seward’s harangues, all through the country, which teemed with as violent abolitionism aa anything that emanated from Garrison. Toe conservative journals merely reported theee orations as among the news of the day; but the republican party created them, and they ate responsible for all the evil, be it great or small, which they are producing or may produce, They are respon- sible for the exasperation which these docu- mente and barangues carried with them into the Southern States, and it is no use now to thrust forward the Chicago platform us the doo- trines of the republican party. The Chicago platform did not tell the whole truth, and the republican leaders knew that their man could not be elected upon it. Lence they appealed to the abolition eentiment by violent speeches, like those of Mr. Seward ia his Western tour from New England to Kansas. The campaign was an abolition agitation througbout, and they are now backin g out of it, | and trying to bide it out of cight by putting forward the Chicago platform as the doctrines | of the party. But it will not do. It is like the | | ostrich in the wilderness, which hides its head ia bush and fancies that ile whole body is | concealed. Tur Merroroitran Pottce —Superintendent Kennedy's report lays stress upon a fact, which no one had previously doubted, that the num- | bers of the Metropolitan police are inadequate to the protection of the districts in their charge. In New York, according to the Superintend- ent’s figures, there is only one patrolman to guard a beat of 1 566-1000 mile, whilst in the moat densely inhabited part of Brooklyn the beats are 6 14-100 miles to each patrolm: In New York, with s population of « million, | the patrol force numbers only 1,052 men, whilst in London, with two millions of popula- | tion, the patrol force numbers nearly six thou- and, and this strictly within the city limite. If Superintendent Kennedy's masters were not #0 | intent upon legislating away the public reve pues to reward political portieana, the police | claim the right to stand alone. | force of New York might be brought up to the early period of its developement, while the in- tervening space is yet a wilderness of prairie, one is led to reflect upon the magnificent pros- pect which time and facilities henceforth to be employed bold forth. It would be impossible and uanecesrary, in view of the detailed account given elsewhere in our columns, to elaborate here the various sources of wealth which a future iaterchange of commerce is destined to realize in that rich and fertile region, the greater portion of whicha little more thau a year ago was a / nita; but in the face of the political turn affairs have taken, and the troublous position ia which the country stands at the present moment, it becomes a subject of serious thought to surmise what the future of this immense tract may be. If we should be unfortunate enough to see the Union broken up, the probability is that it will be ultimately divided into three separate re publics—the Northern, the Southern and the Western—for the interests of the far Western region lying on the Pacific slope are looming up with such var'ness, while the confederacy is even yet in swaddiling clothes, that it is more than probable this section also will, at no distant time But if, on the contrary, the prevent turmoil shall be set- tled down, and a convention of States shall so harmonize the discordant elements of strife and disunion as to confirm the Union in its in- tegrity, then what a glorious anticipation of prosperity may we not indulge in, arising from the boundless resources of our Pacific posses | tions, our vest Plains teeming with gold, and the germ of inexhaustible agricultuggl products. Looking into fature years of peagp @nd fellow- ship, we bebold a developement of commercial prosperity in these regions such as the world never conceived before. Tucntow Werp Fricutexen.—We perceive that the Nestor of the lobby is nearly ‘right eped out of bis wite by the present posiuon of effairs in the South. Weed bas been working like a beaver to encompass the success of the black republican party, and has sneered at the idea that the cotton States would secede, or that any trouble would ensue upon the triumph of a purely sectional party. Now thet Thur low’s mind is easy as to the result of the elec tion, and while he is rubbing bis hands «rer the | fenst that awaita bim, be is tremendously scared by the spectre of disnnion, which seenmer daily a more palpable and practic. jie abe compromising matters with the to give up everything to the South, so that he ca’ have the run of the President's kitchen. We mave no doubt that Thurlow would go as far as y.° catch a nigger or two if that would pacify the otton States. It will be very well for Weed and his friends it this eudden attaek of penitence does 1,'%t turn out to be after the manner of deathbe.’ Te Ppentance. Wro Are tux Paxic Maxens!—The great question which is now being agitated in the journals and in private circles ia as to the origin of the present financial crisis. It is asked on all hands who made the panic, by what in- fluences a prosperous nation is suddenly brought to the brink of ruin; what causes the banks to suspend, the money market to be ight, the best securities to fall, thousands of workmen to be thrown out of employment, and heretofore profitable branches of business to be stopped altogether? This atate of things is ac- credited to various causes, and some philoso- phers, who are fond of giving to.us the credit of having influenced almost every important event—political, social or financial—declare that it is the New York Hexatp that bas created the panic. In the sume way these wiseacres declare that we influence all the elections, and that a candidate is elected or defeated simply and solely on the ground that we took sides for or againsthim. If we say that Tompkins is not fit to go to Congress, and the people of Tompkins’ district think otherwise, and send that misrepresented patriot to the councils of the nation, then Tompkins waa chosen because we oppored him. On the other baud, it we recommend Tompkins, and he is chosen, or is not —it makes no difference— we did it. So, when there is a panic, and we give to the public facts which other journals, actuated by political reasons, conceal, then we make all the trouble—we cause stucks to go down, and 80 on. Now, we are not apxious to be praised for otber people's goog deeds, and particularly ob- ject to being held reeponsible for their misde. meanors. The real pavic makers are the aboli- tion Seaders, and they commenced their work nearly thirty years ago. Such men as Tappan and Hallock (who established the Journal of Com- mere as an abolition organ), Garrison, Francis Jackson, Edmund Quincy and Wendell Phil- lips, are the real panic makers. They have had many recruits since the germ of this pazic ap peared. In New York the Hallocks aud the Tappans bave retired from active service, and their places sre filled by Seward, Webb, Greeley, Weed & Company, who make up a regular panic manutacturing concern. The courte of these politicians bas been such as to exaeperate the South, to promote the organiza- tion of a very powerful secession party in that section, and to alarm the people toench an extent that they see no adequate remedy for their present grievances, except in a reaump™ tion of the powers delegated by the several States to the general government. This has produced the panic, and we say again that Weed, Greeley & Company are responsible for it. They have been aided and assisted by the radical abolitionists, such as John Browa—who was the only man of them that had the pluck to attempt to carry out his ideas—anad pestifer- ous fellows like Redpath, who are scribbling continually and scattering abolition trash far and wide. These people are responsible for all that has occurred, and if the people of the fifteen South- ern States are not pacified, if they do not re- ceive guarantees that their property, of what ever nature the same may be, shall be pro- tected in all the States and Territories, and if they resolve to go out of the Union, then the blame must fall upon the black republican leaders, where it justly belongs. And if the mere threat of secession creates such a storm as that which has swept over the Central States during the last fortnight, what will be the effect of the act itself? The present panic is mere child's play in comparison to that which menaces us in the event of a united movement in favor of secession. So the very bert thing tue panic makers can do is to go to work and repair, if they can, the mischief they have already done, and guard, if possible, against any future dan ger. Their favorite §meseure—coercion—is utterly impossible. The Sou cannot be bul- lied or whipped into submission, and the sooner Mr. Lincoln's friends make up their minds to that effect the better it will be for all parties concerned. Evrrcts or Tuk Passipentia Exvecrion on Tux Trap or Naw Yorx.—We beg to refer our readers to the detailed statement, which we publieh to day, of the falling off in various branches of manufacture and trade in this city since the election of Lincoln. So much has been eaid upon this subject, and so many have been, or have affected to be, skeptical about it, that we despatched a reporter to visit the different factories and firms and obtain the facts. The result of his investigation wili be found in another columo. It will be seen that since tbe 6th of November there has been ao alarming falling off in the sale and maou! scture of articles dependent to any great extent upon Southern trace, and that not less than fit teen thousand operatives have already been dis- charged, and are out of employment at thi, critica! time, just when winter is setting in with all its severity. Not only have orders ceased to come from the | South, but many orders on the books of our manufacturers, varying in amount from $5,000 | to $25,000, bave been recently couotermanded. | The branches of trade which bave suffered moet are the carriage and barnes businesses: | clothing, boots and shoes, hats and cape, gro- | ceries, and wines and brandies. In all these the sales have declined to such an extent as to render it necessary to discharge the workmen in various proportions, some houses throwing out three-feurtbe of their bands and some dis missing the whole. Any comment upon such astate of affairs ie wholly unnecessary; the | facts epeaketronger than words. It is precisely | the result of the election which we predicted, and warned our merchants, manufacturers and operatives of mentha ago, when it might have been averted by casting their votes another way.

The first ended with the peace of Villafranca end the annexation of Lombardy to Sardinia, The second ends with the fall of Capua, the annexation of Naples and the retirement of the brave Garibaldi t6 his island home of Caprera. All that is now wonted to make Italy a unit is the conquest of Venetia from Austria and the formal termination of the Pope’s temporal sovereignty in Rome and the Marches, In the meantime where is to be the political capital of the kingdom of Italy? Victor Emanuel an- },.wers, Rome. Garibaldi has registered a vow tha, from the steps of the Quirinal he will pro- clatm .the grand fact of the expulsion of the last rem, ‘ant of foreign power and the existence of the king dom. Italians generally look to the Eternal City 98 their future political metropolis; but yet local jealousies and the difficulty of dealing with Pio Nono place Poagg orl bs fos of realizing hat idea. The psa loth to lex ve the Vatican, and the French troops there w.'ll not permit him to be driven out. Turin, Mil'2, Florence, Leghorn, Venice—when the Austn 40 “domination there eball have been terminate.'—and other cities have their local rivalries, a1 will press their respective claims; but not all of them together can unite as many suffrages as will be given for the city founded by Romulus. We bad our own difficulties in locating the federal capital. New York, Philatelpbis, Bal- timore, Annapolis and many other cities con- tended for the honor, till finally the pretenctons | of all of them were ignored, and it was resolved to locate the espital on the tract ef tem miles equare ceded for that purpose to the general go- vernment by the States of Virginia and Mury- land. Toronto, Kingston, Montreal aad Quebeo pressed their respective pretensions to be the capital of Canads, till the British government had to follow our example and locate it in the Ottawa wilderness. The Italians may have to imitate these examples. If for any reason Rome cannot be made the political metropolis of Italy, let Mount Aventine be selected as the site, and thus the associations connect- ed with imperial Rome can be preserved and perpetuated. If an arrangement can be made by which the Pope shall renounce all further claim to temporalities, he might retain his reei- dence at the Vatican and Rome be made the metropolis of Italy; and if not, the carrying out of our suggestion will not involve any insu- perable difficulties. It would be the simplest way to decide the question. Ixcreasep Demand ror Frirearus.—While most branches of trade are declining under the depressing condition of political affairs, it is curious and significant to observe that the sale and manufacture of all kinds of weapons and munitions of war have increased immensely in every part of the country for the past few months. Since the Presidential cam- paign commenced there has been an advance of two hundred per cent in the number of arms manufactured and sold—the largest in- crease being observable since the election. The demand for arms in Earope—which may be said to be on a war footing from north to south—has drained the stock of these articles, and completely tested the activity of the mannu- facturers to keep up with it. The armiag of volunteers in England produced a like result in that country. Then the condition of Italy, where the people are now free to carry arms, has produced a large demand. The troubled porition of our own country, too, has kept our manufacturers eo buey that they are not at the present time able to fill the orders on hand from the Southern State governments, and the different associations and individuals from whom they come pouring in every day. These orders vary from a single gun or pistol up to scores and hundreds, and come in so fast that they can with difficulty be met. Many of the disaffected Southern States, it is knowa, sent agente to Europe to purchase arms; but they found it impossible to procure them there, and had to fall back upon our own manufactories. Gov. Brown, of Georgia, in a recent message, declared that the contracts for arms with the North had not been fulfilled, and urged the im- mediate establishment of factories for the manufacture of firearms at home. All these facts show that the whole world at the preeent time is engaged in furnishing itself with weapons of destruction, to be used be- tween man and man ia direfal conflict-—al. though with the exception of Italy alone there is profound peace everywhere—a sleep, it may be, that forebodes a terrible awakening. Tux Joux Brown Worsmrrers at Wore.— We perceive that the foolish abolition fanatics sre sending round a circular, signed by Mr. James Redpath and a commit‘ee of youag men from Boston, inviting attendagge to an anni- vertary celebration of John Brown’s execution, to take place at Tremont Temple on the 24 of December. The leaders of the different anti slavery societies are expected to present themrelves on the occasion, when, of course, the usual amount of treason, irreligion and bla phemy will be poured out. It would be much better for theee silly fellows to endeavor to remedy the mischief their agitation has already bronght upon the country, aad let the bones of the old horse thief and murderer Brown reet where the laws he had outraged so justly conrigned them. The circular, which we give in another co- ‘umn, requests the favor of an answer, sod in one instance it has been answeved properly. For example, see the teree and pithy reply of Governor Packer, of Pennsylvania, which we publieh in connection with the circular.
