CONSOLING. The Tribune says there are not ten men of common sense in New 1 ork who doubt Lin coln’s success, and in view of its certainty he app ils to politicians to cease their misrepresen ts!., ms of Old Abe, as an immediate emancipa t om.-t. The Tribune is evidently a little anx ious about matters, though he winds up by the abortion that the I nion is not going even seri ously to be shaken. “It is a rock on which thousands may make shipwreck of their own hopes, fortunes and even lives, but which will it- K. lfbe unaffected by their criminal madness.” \« ■ the Grand lurk himself, ora Russian Czar . v<-r entertained so magnificent ideas of his pow er to crush out revolt, as Old Greeley, Abe and Seward seem to entertain of the power of the Federal Government to extinguish all resis tance. and to keep sovereign States in the I n as sheep are kept in the Butcher's pen.— fne Trihuui may rest easy about misrepresen tations of Old Abe. What he says for himself is that this Union cannot endure half free and hall ••lave. How can you exaggerate such a declara tion as that ? Books from D. Appleton A Co. FOR SALE AT BOARDMAN'S.

Barnard, of Albany, New York, well known as at one time a distinguished Whig member of Congress, and subsequently the Editor of the American Review, an able quarterly exponent of old time Whiggery. lie is now a Bell and Everett man. Mr. Barnard had been invited to address a Lincoln meeting, and in response said he would take occasion to prepare for the pub lic eye his reasons for the, strong opinions he entertained that the doctrine and purposes of the Republican party are incompatible with the preservation of the Union and the Constitution, and that its triumph could not fail to endanger the stability of the government. Mr. Barnard’s communication fills seven col umns, and is a masterly expose of the single idea of Black Republicanism—negro equality; « and in reference to their alleged imbecility or unwillingness to carry out their doctrines, Mr. Barnard says:— “Fur myself, I shall not consent to act as if I believed nothing was meant or intended by this doctrine, except to draw the honest elector into the support of the party by false pretences.— That supposition—a favorite idea with many— would assume that the leaders of the party are only a wicked combination of impudent and ar rant knaves. I believe they mean a great deal , more than many think they do. I regard them as engaged in an earnest crusade against slave ry as it exists in the country, and that they be lieve that in possession of the power they shall find means—they may not understand them selves, definitely, what means, or all the means, but they will find some means of striking a blow, sooner or later to be a fatal blow, at sla very, in spite of the Constitution, ami of the independent power of the States over the sub ject" We append Mr. Barnard’s views upon the probable effect of Lincoln’s election upon tbe South and the Union—omitting such part of them as charges upon South Carolina and the Breckinridge men a design to foment trouble in order to compass disunion : “At the South—assuming all the while that the South shall make no concerted opposition to this rule of the North over her—an anti-slavery administration may find it more difficult to op erate with success. Os course it must appoint none but anti-slavery men to office, if such men can be found al the South, ami will take the hazard of the appointments; ami of course, also, every appointee of this character—perhaps eve ry one accepting office at all—every Postmaster, Custom House officer, District Attorney, Mar shal and Judge, appointed by an anti-slavery Administration, will be looked upon and treated as an Abolitionist, a spy, and an incendiary.— We all know that every instance of such an ap pointment in any State where slavery exists, will cause an outburst of popular indignation in the locality of the office, ami a popular move ment, which, as in the case of the receivers of stamps just before the Revolution, will compel every such officer to resign, and probably drive him from the Slate. There will then be noth ing left for the Administration but to come, as best it may, to the defence and support of its of ficers, or to yield to the popular violence. Con fusion, bloodshed and anarchy are the least that can be expected; and if continued and exten ded, revolution would not be far off. An at tempt to mako the General Post Office Depart ment an agency, through Postmasters in the local offices at the South, for the distribution of anti slavery publications of an incendiary character, or such as the State authorities— necessarily the exclusive judges in the case— shall deem to be such, could not fail to be met with a resistance enlisting the South as one man in her defence. But I cannot dwell on what may come to pass under an anti-slavery Administration. I believe that a great danger is likely to be en countered before any such administration could be formed, in case of the election of a President by the present anti-slavery party of the North. 1 believe that a serious attempt is likely to be made in the South, in such an event, to secede from the Union. lam afraid it might be suc cessful, and I am. not afraid to express these fears. Many good men, 1 know, have persua ded themselves that such apprehensions are idle—or worse ; others, who are not very good men, and others still, who are very wise in their own conceit, treat such opinions with scorn. This is not the first time that fools and fanatics have rushed along where angels would fear to tread. The question is not what we of the North think of the Republican party, but what do the South think of it. What it really is, by its own showing, I have endeavored to set forth in this letter. What do the South— what can the South—think of such a party ? Let wise men among us reflect. Let prudent men consider. The South has long held a ■strong body of disunionists—the disciples of their great South Carolina statesman. These are always on the watch for an opportunity to be driven from the Union by the aggressions of the North. * * * * j. But, if in spite of all efforts, it shall be an nounced in November next that the party of anti-slavery has triumphed in the election—the party of the North against the South—the par ty which the South will believe, whatever we of the North may believe, is to come into the common government of the country on a doc trine and sentiment of hostile and fatal por tent and purpose towards her and her most vital interests —if such shall be the result, then, certainly, 1 have no expectation whatever that the country is to to .Ur. Lincoln s in auguration without witnessing an attempt in the South to sever the Union. Whether such an attempt can be successful or not, is a specu lation into which Ido not enter. The attempt and what must attend it, offer horrors enough to me. But I must say, that if several States of this Union, moved by a strong common im pulse, on a question of Southern rights, and with no formidable opposition at home, should resolve at any time to go out of it, I am clear in the opinion that the North, and the Federal Government in the hands of the North, would be impotent to keep them in it. Possibly it may be the policy of Southern States, if re solved on separation, to begin with disowning the Federal Government in the hands of their ‘ enemies, leaving the Administration and both j Houses of Congress, in the hands of the North exclusively, and taking care, by popular de monstrations, that no man shall accept or hold office at the South under the Administration. The civil authority of the Government in that part of the Union would thus be ended, and nothing would remain for it but to employ tin army and navy as its agents to carry on there, under martial law, the ordinary operations of civil administration, or to abandon the con test. Bell Men Becoming Black Rkpvbi.icans.— About three hundred of the American portion of the Bell and Everett party in Baltimore, on Lhursday night, marched to the Lincoln head quarters and joined that pai ty. This was in con sequence of the election of the reform ticket in Baltimore, which’destroyed the rule of the so called American club in that city. The result of this will be to increase Breckinridge’s plural ity in the State, Since the election many who have previously been Douglas men are coming over to Breckinridge. THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 18, 1860. The Charleston Courier on Disunion* The Courier has always been a Union print, 1 and during the stormy days of nullification, 1 passed through fire and water in defence of the Federal I nion. What the Courier thinks now, we learn from a few comments appended to ; some remarks of the Philadelphia Bulletin.— 1 The Bulletin commenting upon the certain tri ' unaph of Lincoln says: “The nation will now quietly make up its mind to the election of Mr. Lincoln to the Presi dency. It was well that so great a State as * Pennsylvania should lead off in the decisive work of his election. Iler conservatism, her loyalty to the Union, her love for the Constitu tion, and her respect for the rights cf the peo ple of all the States, are not to be questioned. The Southern States themselves will have no apprehension of wrong under a President who receives the cordial support of such a State as Pennsylvania. During the five months that will intervene between this time and the 4th of March, all turbulent and traitorous demonstra tions, all threats of disunion, will be quietly but effectively suppressed by the healthy and po tent influence of conservative men all over the Union, and we predict a prosperous and peace ful administration, of which the Southern States will make Less complaint than they have made of the administration of Mr. Buchanan.” To which the Courier subjoins the following Words of comment: “If any Northern readers indulge in the hopes uttered by the Bulletin, they will experience a fearful disappointment. With Lincoln’s elec tion, this Union is doomed—and this, we be lieve, is the honest opinion of many among those from the South who do not themselves advocate and demand a separation on that ac count alone.” A STONE FROM THE PYRAMIDS. We are indebted to a friend who has return ed from a visit to New York, for the opportuni ty of examining and presenting to curious rea ders, who can call at the Courier office, a most interesting document. This is a far simile from a photographic print, with explanation and interpretation, of part of a manuscript late ly discovered. For convenient and concise de scription, we take the following account from the New York Evening Post : Discovery of a Manuscript of the Time of David. —ln the year 1858 a Theban mountain eer discovered in a hill, called by the Arabs Shin-abd-el-Gourna, a tomb cut out of the rock, in which he found a mummy-case with a gold spread-eagle and a golden asp ; also a tablet of green stone, a box with four canopi of Oriental alabaster, and on the side of a magnificent mummy with a gilded mask and a large gilded scarabieus of porcelain on its breast, a most re markable papyrus scroll, five feet long and ten inches wide, written in the finest hieratic and hieroglyphic characters. The four jars were sold to Lord Henry Scott, a young Englishman. The mask was purchased by a copt who pur , chased and sold antiquities at Thebes, and was transferred by him to the French consular agent at that place, and may be now either in his possession or in the museum at Paris. ’The papyrus, as also the scarabaeus, the tablet and the eagle, came into the hands of George A. Stone, Esq., of Roxbury, Mass., then traveling in Egypt. Mr. Stone sent copies and photo graphs of the papyrus to several Egyptologists in New York, who attempted its translation, but failed, because they were only acquainted with Champollion’s system. Finally, Mr. Stone sent a photographic copy to Professor G. Seyffarth, of St. Louis, Mo., having been informed that this gentleman had published, in the year 1833 and 1835, the key to the Egyptian literature and to the ancient astronomical inscriptions and monuments. This savant the author of the “ Summary of Recent Discoveries,” &c., New York, 1857, and a large number of other works, has just published the translations and explanations, as requested of him, in the Transactions in the Academy of Science of St. Louis for the year 1860, (pp. 527 -569,) with sixteen lithographic plates. The biography of Horsebe (the sword of Horus) is to be found in the first column of the papyrus and we learn by that, that he was the command ing general of Pharaoh Shishak 1., who slew the last king of Manetho’s XNlst dynasty, and suppressed by his captain the rebels in five diff erent provinces of Egypt. This Shishak 1., the head of the XXI Id dynasty, lived according to Manetho and the monuments, one hundred and twenty-four years previous to Shishak IL, the conqueror of Jerusalem (1 Kings 11: 40—14 : 25,) in the fifth year of Rehoboain, (945 B. C.). Horsebe was consequently a contemporary of Saul and David, and the papyrus in question has been written about the year 1050 B. C., or three hundred years before the foundation c f Rome, and is at present two thousand nine hun dred years old. The residue of this precious manuscript con tains a new religious book of the ancient Egyp tians, and begins with the following sentences : “The Book of Hymns for singing the glories of Him who made Isis [the earth]; the glories of that invisible Being who made Osiris [the sun] (the originator of the life of his race; the orig inator of the life of his nation, and the origina tor of the circle of the solar year with its sea sons ; the builder of the sacrificial quadrupeds, being convenient for Him in His house of light, and ordered by His Father, the Lord Governor; the originator of the priests for his race in the firmament, and for Adon, the Lord); who made Meni [the moon] (the originator of the flax-seed, of her own sex, and of spinners and weavers for the races in both the regions of Egypt, and also for the makers of cloths for the people); who made the most holy one, the apotheosed mighty chief of the Crethi [the standing army] the warriors of the mighty Egyptians, those in the City of the Sun [Thebes], the capital of the sov ereign of Egypt, of the shepherd of all born in Egypt and its vicinities, namely, the mighty Horsebe.” After this introduction a grand hymn begins. Dr. Seyffarth’s name has been frequently and favorably before our readers in incidental and abridged notices of some of his important dis- I coveries and researches. He is, as we learn from gentlemen who have visited him, a noble specimen of the German philosopher, in the best phase and mood—a man of profound erudition, deeply versed in the natural sciences and in philology, as well as in the dust covered traditions and monuments of Egyptian lore, and withal ofa simple, child-like i faith and a genial purity of purpose. One art I is unknown to him, but in New York that want is almost fatal. He has not learned or illustra ted the art of making money “at all hazards,” and without this a man in New York, although he speaks with all tongues and enjoys all the good gifts of God, is not considered or appre ciated. We have some reasons for hoping that Dr. ; Seyffarth, devotedly attached as he is to favor- 1 ite pursuits, and now intensely occupied in ; great tasks, can be persuaded—for scientific considerations —to favor Charleston with a brief visit, at least, during the approaching winter. The sac simile referred to may be examined , in this office by careful and curious visitors. ZThc Queen and Prince Albert Enjoying a Quiet Night in the Country. “A gentleman drove to the door of the com fortable inn known as the Grant’s Arms, in the village of Grantown, the capital of Strathspey. He obuined audience of the land-lady, Mrs. Glass, and wished to engage the whole house that night for a newly married couple and their suite The worthy hostess demurred, as she might ex clude some of fiercest customers; but the appli- eant was civil as well as urgent, and gave as , surance that the party was ‘highly respectable’. , There was no difference as to terms, and Mrs. s Glass was told that she would be glad after wards to know that she had stretched a point to ’ accommodate the party. In these circumstan • ces an arrangement was made, and the occupants . of the house were politely requested to boardn . out for the night. The principals arrived in the evening—apparently quiet people, satisfied with everything and everybody about them. In a i newly married couple such equanimity might ■ have been expected, but this part of the affair ■ was evidently a hoax, and had only the effect of : raising conjectures as to who the party mio'ht be but on this point all the attendants were°dumb' Next morning at 10 o’clock the carriages were at the door, and the strangers took their seats. All being ready to start, Mrs. Glass was called lor, and Lord Churchill complimented her on the cleanliness and order of her establishment. The strangers had been very comfortable, and t the lady had never slept more soundly in her life. ‘I may now tell you,’ said his Lordship, as the principal carriage drove awr ~ ‘that you have been entertaining her gracious Majesty the Queen and the Prince Consort. They do not wish this to be known until about ten minutes after they have left.”— lnverness Courier. New Cotton Planter’s Fair.
