WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY0, 1861, 44 Spring Goods.” This i.3 a fomlUnr phrase,and to certain classes of society its annual announcement is re ceived with demonstrations of satisfaction more or less intense according to individual ne cessities or ldiosyncracies. The careful housewife sees in it the means of prospering her utilitarian plans, while Mr. Popinjay and Miss Flora McFlimsey find in the sound a grand realization of all their contemplated flir tations and swells. We all, more or less, de rive a pleasure irom the arrival of tbc latest conveniences and fashions. Such are the or dinary effects of “Spring Goods,” in piping times of peace, when the political sky is clear, and matters move on harmoniously to their ac customed consummation. Now, however, “Spring Goods” have taken on a new character. They are a political ele ment, and owing to the peculiar relations of the southern and northern sections of the country toward each other, commercially and political ly, a most powerful instrument for good or harm. We, people of the South, have a duty to onrselves and the country to perform, and, in order to do it, a lesson to learn. The honor of the South is tobe maintained and, we must makeup onr minds to sacrifice something of lnxnry at least, in order to perform that pa triotic duty. We simply mean to say that un der the present aspect of affairs, to every ex tent, where it is possible, the commercial rela tions between the South aud the North should cease. Until we attain to perfect independence, there are some of the necessaries of life which can be procured in no other quarter, but we are convinced that wc can get along, for a year at least, under a suspension of the great body of onr purchases, and especially of manufactured articles, which we have been taking heretofore from the worst enemies of onr section Every article of negro wear can be procured from our southern looms and workshops, and let us go to work and build them up In the present emer gency. W6 have now on the shelves of our merchants enough of cassimers, calicoes and homespuns to last us for a full season, and un til importations can be made from abroad ; let our wives, sons and daughters lay aside their silks and satins and foulards,and do something, as they call can, for the preservation of the rights and honor of their section. We have fed and pampered fanaticism long enough,and even as a means of peace, no more effective weapon can be uped than the withdrawal of our trade. Here & a question for the merchants, who have some claims of patriotism upon them in fhc present crisis. Sde them buy nothing that is not essential, and sell for cash. It is time they were clearing out their old stocks, and by harmonious action they will now have an op portunity to do it. Let us have no going to the North for “Spring Goods,” at least until the troubles of the country are over. The Force Bill.—Mr. Bingham’s bill, re ported by him from the Ilouse Judiciary Committee on Thursday last, provides that whenever, by reason of unlawful obstructions combinations, or assemblages of persons, it shall become impracticable, in the judgment of the President, to execute the revenue laws and collect the duties on imports in the ordinary way, it shall be lawful lor him to direct the Custom house for such district to be established and kept in any secure place, within some port or harbor of said district, cither on land or on board any vessel, and in that case it shall be the duty of the Collector to reside at such place, and there detain all vessels and cargoes arriving within the district, until the duties imposed on tbc cargoes by law, shall be paid in cash, anj*- TtTAhq laws of the United 8tat«6 to the contrary notwithstanding ; and in such cases if shall be unlawful to take the vessel or cargo from the custody of the proper officers of the customs, unless by a process from sonlo court of the United States, and in case any attempt shall be made to take such vessel or cargo by any force . or combination, or assemblages of persons too great to be overcome by the offi cers of the customs, it shall and may be lawfnl for the President, or such person or persons as ho. shall have empowered for the purpose, to employ such part ol the land or naval forces, or militia of the United States, as may be deemed necessary for the purpose of preventing the re moval of such vessel or cargo, and protecting the officers of the customs in retaining the custody thereof. r*r Gur office was depopulated for the greater portion of yesterday, nearly all of our compositors belonging to oue or another of the military companies which were on parade in honor of the day. For this reason, our paper is deficient in its U3nal amount of reading mat ter. News from Georgia in the Senate.— The Macon Telegraph says: We understand that Go*. Brown telegraphed his proceedings in relation to Fort Pulaski to Senator Toombs, who read his dispatch to the Senate. It pro duced a profound sensation, and we have no doubt, (or the first time opened the eyes of that body to the real state of feeling in the South. Cutler, Central Railroad and Banking Co.—The following geutlcraen were chosen Directors of the Central Railroad and Banking Company of Georgia, on Monday, 7th inst., to •'erve for the ensuing year : John W. Anderson Tnos. Purse, F. G. Dana, Geo. L. Cope, 1 Octaves Cohen, new director. _.i a,subsequent meeting of the Board, R. R. CuvTer unanimously re-elected President. {|NoT OUT Yet.—It appears that our doubts of the import of the despatch from Tallahassee, ©uWishcd yesterday, are fully sustained. The Ordinance of Secession was not adopted by the Convention on Monday, but simply a resolu tion providing for a Committee to prepare such Ordinance. The ordinance, however,will doubt less be passed during the week. The Republican papers say the military com mand of the alleged expedition for the capture of Washington, has been confided to the bands of the celebrated Texan Ranger, M»j. Ben. Mc Culloch. A Black Van’s Funeral at the South. The Angusta papers announced, some days ago, the demise of Kelly Low, a pious, ven erable, and intelligent colored clergyman of the Baptist Church, in that city. What An drew Marshall was to Savannah, Kelly Low was to Augusta. We copy the following account of his fuueral, in which a large portion of the white population participated, from the True Democrat of Tuesday: ^ Circumstances beyond our control have pre- m ^ vepi eluded an earlier notice of the death of Kelly Low, colored pastor of Springfield Baptist Church. This event, so deeply regretted by all classes and conditions of persons, in our com munity, took place on the3dinst., at his rest- idence, in this city. In 18S5 he was ordained a Minister of the Gospel, and from that time to hU death, he has-been constant, zealous and ef ficient in his labors. His tuneral on Sunday afternoon was very S sly attended by both black and white. The ber of the latter in procession has been es- ted from 1,000 to 1,500, and the number in attendance at the grave, in the Church yard, was not less than 4,000 persons. We forbevr any comments of our own, upon the character of the deceased, and give place to the following tribute from his former owner, one of our most intelligent and prominent citizens. It reflects the sentimens ol our entire community : “From my own knowledge of Kelly Low, I can truly say, that he was no ordinary man in intelligence, and in all that constitutes an honefA, truthful and reliable man. He was r.vsvd in my family from early boyhood, and was ivy property for over twenty-five years, and I kne\’ him to have been as near a pofect man .tsiany other I have ever known of any color. IiJdee.iT have always viewed him to be without 9* in character and disposition, be- -ibmng even in his youth, and continuing up to -he day of his death.” U in “ 3“ n .! n e -*f we t S' £reat t tl»e literature of architecture. [For Uie Savannah Republican.] Tl»e Irrepreitftlble Conflict. Black Republicanism bos begotten a philoso phy. Its natural human craving has at length been gralifled. Nor was monarch ever prouder of an heir to his throne than Abolitionism of this beautiful offspring of the brain of the Presi dent elect. Tbe Abolitionist has been long in search of some solid bottom for his anti-slavery notions. The Bible and the Constitution have been sound ed in vain. But the great disseratum has been attained. Upon tne bosom of the doctrine of the Irrepressible Conflict, Abolitionism now re poses. She feels strong, quiet, settled. Philo sophy is arrayed on her side. Everlasting honor and gratitude is due to the discoverer of the great principle on which she rests her faith. By rivals, not a few, has the credit of this discovery been claimed. Mr. Sqjrard, cither as the Watt or the Fulton, is entitled to share its honors.— If Lincoln first found the soundings, Seward cast the first anchor. If Liucoln laid the cor ner-stone,Seward built the imposing superstruc ture. Whatever the relative claims of the discover ers may be, all Abolitionists have quietly set tled down in the enjoyment of the “terra firms’’ so long and anxiously looked for. The Bible argument had failed to satisfy them. The Con stitution was stubborn. The Courts inhospi tably denied them shelter. But in the crisis of their perplexity, the Irrepressible Conflict was discovered. Inexpressibly welcome was the sight of this land. The whole body of Aboli tionists at once disembarked, took possession of the newly discovered territory, and now rest stable and secure upon the strong founda tion of the Irrepressible Conflict. No permanent rest can it afford for the sole of their foot. Their political views are unconsti tutional ; tlicir theology, unscriptural, and their philosophy absurd. What is the doctrine of the Irrepressible Con flict, which challenges for itself the admiration »f all thinking men ? The doctrine is that there is such an incom patibility between free labor and slave labor that they cannot co-exist—that they clash necessarily the one with the other, and the one or the other must give way. Let Mr. Seward, the great expounder, cx press the idea in his own words : Thus, these antagonistic system* are contin ually coming into closer contact, and collision result*. Shall I tell you what this collision means ? They who think it is accidental, un necessary, the work of interested fanatical agitators, and therefore ephemeral, mistake the case altogether. It f- an IRREPRESSIBLE CONFLICT BETWEEN OPPOSING AND ENDURING forces, and it mean* that the United States must and will, sooner or later, become en tirely a slaveholding nation or entirely a free- labor nation. Either the cotton and rice fields of South Carolina, and the sugar plantations of Louisiana, will ultimately be tilled by free labor, and Charleston and New Orleans become marts for legitimate merchandise alone, or else the rye fields and wheat fields of Massachusetts and New York mnst again bo surrendered by their farmers to slave culture and to tbe production of slaves, and Boston and Now York become once more a market for trade in the bodies and souls of men. It is the failure to apprehend this great truth that induces so many unsuc cessful attempts at final compromise between the slave and free States, and it is the existence of this great fact that renders all such pre tended compromise, when made, vain and EPHEMERAL.” This smnks of philosophy. The evidence of the truth of tho doctrine is asserted to be found in the very nature of the case, and the consti tution of mau. “The failure to apprehend this great truth is the source of all onr difficulties.” The shallowness of all former views upon the subject rendered “all pretended compromise, when made, vain and ephemeral.” The fra mers of the constitution did not comprehend the question. Nor did the most distant view of the truth ever dawn on human intellect, till the Illustrious Abraham discovered in in 1858, in a warlike, cruise against “the Douglas.” Upon this doctrine, it is impossible to shed light without exposing its naked absurdity.— What reason is there why free white men in Massachusetts may not manufacture goods— while African slaves at the South cultivate cot ton, rice and sugar? What contradiction in this greater than in the use of water power in the one State and steam in the other? Slave labor in Georgia, and free labor in New York are quite as compatible as stone fences in one State, and rail fences in tho other. If the man of Massachusetts shall undertake to say that the Alabamian shall not use steam power, build rail fcuces, or use slave labor, then there may’ be, probably will be, a conflict. And if the mau of Massachusetts be obstinate, it may become irrepessible. But the conflict is not between free labor and slave labor. No in compatibility in them. It is between usurpation on the one band, and resistance to it on the other. The only thing impossible in the case, is the irrepressible desire of the North to intermeddle with the internal affairs of the South. There is no more danger of collision be tween free labor inNew England,ands lave labor at the South, than between a train ruuning east there,and one running west here. East and west, free and slave have tho sound of antagonism. But the two systems of labor run as wide of each other, in the two sections, as the trains would. Nay, they run run wide of each other iu one and the self-same State. They do not clash, co existing at and in the south, mucli less the one at the south coexisting with the other at the north. We have a large and contented popula tion. Slaves labor. Freemen—the masters of slaves—labor. They labor together, in the same county, on the same plantation, in the same workshop. Does the master feel de graded ? Not so. Labor is the ordinance of God ; it is manly to obey it. The freeman la bors for tbc means of purchasing slaves. When he has purchased them, he labors on the same farm with them. If the master be a carpenter, free labor and slave labor together build a house. If he be a shoemaker, free labor and slave labor jointly make a boot, and coexist in the same shop. But they cannot coexist, for sooth, on the same continent. As a philosophy, the irrepressible conflict is insufferable nonsense. In has no foundation in reason or history. The two systems ol labor, instead of being an tagonistic are complementary; their harmony is complete ; they fit into each other. Slave labor alone can profitably cultivate the raw material which free labor can most profitably manufac ture. The destruction of slave labor would be almost as great a blow upon the north as the south. This truth is now being illustrated be fore our eyes. Slavery is no thing of to-day; it has existed* and free labor by its side, since the infancy of time. The two systems have coexisted in almost every nation. Ridiculous pretence, that while they coexist in perfect harmony in fifteen States of the Union, they cannot coexist the one at the north and the other at the south. Iu the same nation, in the same county, in adjoining nations, they have coexisted, in every phase of society and every degree and type of civiliza tion. There is a conflict, however, after all, and it is probably irrepressible. This wretched pseudo philosophy makes it to be a conflict between two antagonistic systems of labor. Pitiful the philosophy, blind the history, which considers the conflict to lie here. The conflict is between usurpation and the right of self-govevnnient. In this conflict the South is simply defendant. She makes no offer at aggression. Free labor may exist at the North, and she has no complaint to make—she finds no incom patibility. Slave labor might exist there, and she would be equally silent—she is conscious of no conflict. But not 60 with the North. Not content with having her own way in her own borders, she will have her own way in our borders too, or else an irrepressible conflict with us for our re cusancy. Our unreasonableness in refusing to acknowl edge her claims, excites her bitterest resent ment. The denial of any desire on onr part to interfere with her rights, or any willllngness on our part to surrender our own, is onr sole reply. Bat though the parties are misnamed, the conflict in fact exists, and is probably irrepres- j sible. Tl*c sentiment nt the North—not that slavery here is incompatible with freedom here, (for this Is nonsense) but that slavery here Is wrong in itself, and ought to be abolished, re stricted, hindered, crippled in every way—is ir repressible. The determination to make war upon it is irrepressible. It was as a declaration of perpetual war that the doctrine of the irrepressible conflict took such hold upon the northern mind. It was be cause it seemed to dignify, and in some sense sanctify, the glorious right of intermeddling with ourselves and our institutions. It was because it was a doctrine of license—a permit to do mischief—very broad and very per manent. The doctrine savors too of manifest destiny. It makes the Abolitionist believe himself to be co-operating witli the laws of nature, the laws of God, aud the necessities of society. If these things must ultimately be, he will help them along. If nil else is ephemeral, he mill make haste to reach stability. He is simply co-oper ating with Providcuce. Nay, men, (as though meddleaomeners was not a sufficient incentive to action) he is made to believe that he is sirn- ly protecting himself from “the aggressions of the slave power.” This is the came by which, self-defence on our part, is familiarly called. Wretched, shallow, vain philosophy ! Worthy of the men who reject the Bible, or pervert it, and trample on the Constitution and laws of the land. But one resort remains for us. That resort is plain. It is to relieve ourselves and them from the conflict, by severing that political connec tion which alone burdens their consciences.— We have tried a thousand ways of concession and remonstrance. We have stood on the de fensive ; we have not endeavored to force our institutions upon them. They stand on the of fensive. They declare that there is a conflict, and that conflict irrepressible. They give us due notice of their position. This position, these declarations, have given them the government. No other principle have they in common—upon none other did they triumph. And so, upon principles of deeper meaning than they hare penetrated—upon prin ciples which the Father of the Republic fore- FLORIDA STATE CONTENTION. Correspondence Savannah Republican. SECOND DAT.

The following address to the people of th. United States, a movement of Senator Bigler and John Cochrane, of New York, has been signed by Mr. Crittenden and many other members of Congress. The propositions are those introduced into the Senate by Mr. Crit* tenden. The object is to get the approval of the people in order that the proposed amend ments may be passed, by a vote of two thirds, sis amendments to the Constitution : “Your country is in imminent peril. The Federal Union is in process of disruption. Without your aid Congress can do little to avert the impending calamity. The Senate Commit tee of Thirteen have reported their inability to agree upon any basis of adjustment between the North and South. The House Committee of Thirty-Three have arrived at no satisfactory conclusion. Meanwhile, the work of dissolu tion is moving forward with frightful strides, and mutual exasperation and discord is inflam ing the whole land. The remedy is in your hands You have the power to arrest the move ments which arc certain to involve the whole nation in a deadly iaternecine strife, and to restore peace to our distracted country, 'ihe undersigned, representing all sections of our common country, in view <.f these unhappy surroundings, have deemed it our duty to ap peal to yon. “We have reasous to believe that the follow ing proposed amendments to the Constitution, if passed by a two-thirds vote of Congress and ratified by three-fourths of the States, would have the effect]to allay promptly andjpermanent- ly the sectional strife about slavery, and re establish relations of peace and good will be tween the States and the people. We therefore earnestly and urgently recommend that, with as little delay as possible, you express your judg ment on the proposed amendments. You can best tell how this can be done, whether by public meetings, conventions ol delegates, or through the ballot-box. If action be had at all, to be effective it mnst come promptly, and in such forms as to Indicate unmistakably your will on the subject, so that your representatives in Congress may govern their actions accord ingly. Meanwhile we shall endeavor to main tain the Government and preserve the public peace.” Memorials are pouring into Congress from the Northern States, signed by men of all po litical parties, praying Congress to submit Mr. Crittenden’s resolutions as an amendment to the Constitntion. Senator Bigler presented a large number this morning, and expressed the opinion that Pennsylvania would sanction the measure ; that his State would concede any thing for peace, except the Union; that she would never yield. There is a rapidly growing sentiment throughout the North favorable to Mr. Crittenden’s plan of adjustment, and let ter.. are pouring in urging the Republicans to accept it. IT Cannot be denied but the “irrepressible conflict,” is waging a war upon all classes and conditions of men. Already we hear the “black republicans” proclaiming to the world that they ask no favors of slaveholders or Southe.n peo ple. And now we have the same tone In our midst. Messrs. Potter & Merwin, 61 Market street, the proprietors aDd manufacturers of several very popular medicines, are hurling the anathema back into the teeth of its projectors. They are proclaiming to the world through their advertisements, that they will not, for the future buy from, or patronize in any shape or manner, a people tkat are ready to stab them in the dark, or in our backs. This suits us exactly, and we hope those “be der ruffians” (as the abolition ists term the Missourians,) may sell “Cherokee Remed}’,” “Dr. Merwiu’s Fever and Ague Pills. “Cherokee Cure,” and other Southern manufactured goods, to every true southron. For our part we intend to buy these goods, whether we need them or not. Let us learn the “black republicans” for once, that the “Irrepressible conflict” will begin by our patronizing our own people aud especially those who have the nerve to mount their “cockades,” and proclaim t© the world that they are for the South, first, last, and all the time. These goods are found in nearly every village and hamlet in the Southern States.—Si. Louis Daily Bulletin, Dec. 19. The K. G. C.—The organization well known as the “Knights of the Golden Circle” it seems “still lives.” Gen. Bickley recently tendered the services of the order without pay to Gov. Pettus, of Mississippi, in the event of the war resulting from the secession of that State from the Union. The tender was accepted should that contingency happen.

Nature, in her great laboratory, has stored some remedy adapted to every disease which “flesh is hei to.” But it requires the investigation and research to the philosopher to discover and apply this remedy.— Such research and investigation hns succeeded in dis covering a remedy for that most afflictive dispensation, the Dyspepsia ! With all Its lesser and numerous evils; and it may be safely assorted that until the appearance of the Oxyge nated Bitters, a case of Dyspepsia cured was a rare ex perience in medical practice. Now, under the influ ence of these Bitters the rule is to cure, the rare exeep- ton, failure to cure.

I will proceed to state: My little son, eleven years old, has had Scrofula soies on his ears, neck and arms for five years. They were much of the time very distressing, and wc feared they would kill him. At first n swelling would appear, then it would break and make a ruuning sore, which would not beaL They became very loathsome and often painful; they stopped The growth and seemed to under mine his health, so that he became feeble and sickly.— Wo tried Physicians and Medicines, but they did no good. A clergyman in our neighborhood, who had seen some remarkable cures by your Cherry Pectoral, adris d us to try your Sarsaparilla, and we did. The smallest sores showed symptoms of health in about two weeks; in two more they had healed, and in two months the child was as well as any body. Ho now enjoys perfect health, with no remnant of the disorder about him that we can discover. If you, sir, are a pa rent, you may well believe that we shall not soon for get you.

A FTER a rest of six moi.lhs, on the 19th of Janua ry, 1861, I resume m> po ition as Principal of this Institution,- with which I have been connected for 21 years. Tho Academy offers some particular advantages, among which, we think are the following: 1. A well enclosed Yard of about six acre#, within tho incorporated limits of Nashville, thus affording Pu pils unrestrained freedom in healthful recreation, and still subjecting them to the restraints of a refined and intelligent society. 2. Buildings in extent and suitableness, for all school purposes, unequalled in the United States by any Fe male School; aud these surrounded by pavements and corridors, offering constant inducements to cnildren, to breathe ihe fresh air, without regard to the weather. 8. Security from Fire. These buildings are heated with steam ann ligated by gas, and thus free the pa rents of our pupils from at least one source of constant anxiety about their children. • 4. Health—unequalled i. any Female School in this or any other country. Though one of the largest, a*-d a part of the time the largest, Boarding School in the United States, yet but three deaths have occurred among its pupils in nearly 45 years. 5. Non-Sectarian. It is well known to all acquaint ed with the Academy, that a Baptist, Episcopalian, Methodist, or Presbyterian, sends his Daughter here, perfectly satisfied, that in no respect will offence be given to his peculiar views, and yet equally satisfied that the principles of our common religion will be daily inculcated. 6. Maternal Care. • This expression excites no ex pectation which is not fully met in the Academy. A suitable number of ladies, of piety and refinement, de vote tneir entire time to the supervision of the expen ses, the morals, habits and health of the Boarding Pu- pilla. Guardians and parents, who for any cause, may be seeking a permai.ent educational home for little girls, we think, find such a home in the Academy. Apply to dec 18—lmo C. D. ELLIOTT.
