The Result and Consequences of the
Elections la South Carolina.
In another colnmn will be lean the election
returns throughout the Btate. In every Con
gressional District, except one, a large majori
ty of the votes has been cast against seces
sion. The same result has takea place in
almost every judicial district in tbe State.
The aggregate majority against separate State
ao ion, in South Carolina, will be some eeven
or eight thousand votes! The secessionists
have elected only two members out of four
teen. Never was there a victory more eom
plate. In the mountains, in the middle couo
try, aad on the seaboard, at the capital of the
State, and in our great commercial tne*ropolis,
with the poor and with the rich, everywhere
and with all classes, the secessionists have
been defeated, horsa, foot and dragoons.
Thsir generals have ail been slain, with two
exceptions, and their forces have been so
effectually destroyed, or routed and dispersed,
crippled and disabled, that they never «*tn do
battle again in South Carolina
We now predict that a new era haa com
menced in this State, and that the energies of
her people will no longer be exhausted in a
fruitless excitement and war with the Federal
Government. Instead of boasting of our
chivalry and spirit, and spending onr time io
idleness and profligacy, we will go to work
and improve, enrich and beautify our Palmetto
State. We will build railroads, cut canals,
make plank roads, erect machinery, put up
manufactories, improve our lands, construct
magnificent public edifices, fine houses and
comfortable dwellings. We will endow
schools and colleges, and look to the moral
and social condition of onr people, and make
ourselves not an independent nation, bnt an
independent penp’e.
We will show pur love for Sonth Carolina,
not by running off to some new country, but
by living and dying here, and teaohiog our
children to remain here after we are dead and
gone. Instead of going to the North to spend
our money and our summers, we will visit the
mountains of our own boloved State, and
build cottages the;o, and live there daring tha
hot and sickly season. We will learn to man
ufacture and import our own goods, and raise
onr own horses and hogs, so :hat we may ha
neither dependent on the North or the West.
The effort to destroy the Union, and form a
Southern Confederacy, by appealing to tha
fears of the slaveholders, and telling them that
their property iain danger, has signally failed,
and they never can be excited to the same
madness again. The people have discovered,
and will discover, that the great object of
secession was disunion, not the defence and
security of slavery. The institution of slavery
was made, or attempted to be made, tbe means
of accomplishing this great and cherished
object of the seoaasienis’s. It was well known
that nothing conld divide the republic bnt this
great interest, and that nothing less would
unite the South in opposition to the Federal
Government. Hence it was seised h*»ld of,
with such avidity, by the disnaionists, per ee.
They sounded the alarm, and continued to
agitate and agita'e, after all danger was over.
The effect of the storm, through which we
have just passed, not only io Booth Carolina,
but in Georgia, Alabama, Virginia, Mississippi
and North Carolina, will tend to strengthen
the Federal Union. Tha people throughout
the Southern States will hereafter, be more
• on their guard against all insidious attacks oa
the existence of the republic. A great Union
party has sprang up, in all the Southern
States, composed of an overwhelming majori
ty of the people of State, who will not
hereafier permit a march to be stolen on them
by an appeal to their fears
This storm, too, has had a moat salatary
influence at the North, end hae taught the
Northern people the danger of ipterferiag, in
the slightest degree, with tbe institution of
slavery. They now see how sensitive the
Southern people are on this subject and how
. easily they are stirred np to madness by tbe
least interference with thair constitutional
rights. Already the Northern people hava
commenced fighting onr battlea, and an over
whelming majority of them are disposed to
stand by the Federal Constitution, and the
Union of tbe States. They have a deep inte
restiathe preservation of the Union. This
they know and feel, and will observe and
remember.
This s’orra, too, will hava a most salutary
influence on the legislation of our country.
We shall nover sea Congress again spending
a large portion of ’he session without organiz
ing, and being ready to transact’he business of
the country. Hereafter it will be the great
object of all the patriotic members of both
houses of Congress, from the North and the
South, the East and the West, to abstain from
all questions touching the subject of slavery.
It is tine these questions can not be excluded
from either honse. Tha abolitionists of the
North, and the disnaionists of the Booth, will,
no doubt, continue to thrust these subjects be
fore Congress, bat they will meet no eoante
nance from the wise, and virtuous, and pa
triotie.
All the questions likely to come before
Congress, connected with slavery, have al
ready been aettled. The question of slavery,
in the territories, is settled forever. The ten
torial governments are expressly prohibited
by the compromise from.legisl&ling on the
sabject. The admission of new Btates into
tbe Union is likewise tattled by tha compro
raise, and <hay come in with or without slave
ry, as they please. The captaring of fugitive
slaves is likewise settled, aad the President ia
clothed with the whole military power of tha
country, to maintain tha constitutional rights
of the South. Slavery in the District of Co
lombia is the only chance that ihe abolitionists
or disunionists can hare for agitating this ques
t ion.
The Federal Government mast necessarily
confine its legislation to foreign affairs, and
leave to the States the entire control of thair
domeatio concern*. What a beautiful system
of government we live under. A nations'
legislature to watch over tbe common interests
of the whole coantry, and thirty-one State
governments to regulate the internal affairs of
their respective States. A House of Repre
sentatives in which the people, the sovereign
people, of the United States, are all, whether
rich or poo*, equally represented. And a
Senate in which the Sta’ee, the sovereign
States of the Confederacy, whether great or
small, are all equally represented. Tbe Exec
utive combines the two basis of representa
tion, and is elected by a mixed power repre
senting both the States and ths people of tbe
United States.
Never before was there so wise a govern
ment organized on earth, and never before
hava a people in ancient or modern tinea,
been so prosperous and happy aa the Ameri
can people have been under this government.
Let nB preserve it, and in tha language of our
great pol tical father and savior, the immortal
Washington, “ properly estimate its value,
and frown indignantly on the first dawning of
any attempt to aliente one portion of it from
another.” In the language of another noble
patriot of the revolation, let oar motto be,
M Liberty, anion and independence, now and
forever, one and inseparable.”
From the N. O. Picayune.
Tbe Revelation In Northern Mexico.
DKSION9 OF THE LFADKHB.
We must acknowledge that we cannot fully
fathom the designs of the leaders in the new rev*
olution across the Rio Grande, although on ita
face the movement haa the semblance of a mer
cantile speculation or grand smuggling couo.
We gather from the proclamation of Carvajal,
from the newspapers printed along the Rio
Grsmle, and from private letters, that the Revo
lutionists have long suffered from ths on rous
custom house dut.'es imposed upon them by the
Central Government, from the want of protec
tion promised them against the Indians, and
from other causes, yet lor years they have suf
fered in the same way, and so have ths inhabi
tants in every part of Mexico, north and south.
The entire system of government is one of op
pression—ever haa been one of oppression—and
ever will be one of oppression | the people have
ever groaned under an enormous taxation, with
out any protection, and that any other state of
things will obtain in futnre, Is hoping more of
those in power in Mexico than their past
actions will warrant.
Almost any time for fifteen years before Arista
arrhed at Supreme power in Mexico, it was a
favorite scheme of his to cut loose from the
Central Government, and establish a new Re
public out of the States of Tamau’ipas, Coahu-
Ua and New Leon. His ambition may have
taken a broader flight—may have covered a part
of the States of Chihuahua and Durango—
but whatever the extent of his hopes, that he
had a design of separating a portion of the
Northeastern territory ot Mexico from the pa
rent Government is certain. His elevation to
the Presidency, giving his ambition a wider
range, has of course stifled all other schemes for
tha present, and he now appears to be aeting with
spirit and determination in putting down a revo
lution in a sectiou where he has In former times
been ready to raise the standard of revolt himself-
Circumstances alter cases the world over—espe
cially in Mexico.
We repeat that we do not fully understand the
real merits of this new revolution. Carvajal
may have some grand scheme of separating the
States this side of ihe Sierra Madro at heart, or
he may be only fighting in order to get hia goads
through the custom house free of the onerous
duties levied upon them by a Government which
appears to have no farther use for its citizens
than to oppress them With unjust taxation. It
is ever difficult to get at the secret motives
which actuate Mexican leaders in getting up
their pronunciamsntoa. They may shout,
“Down with tyrrany !” until they are hoarse,
may cry out against “Central oppression!” un
til their lungs crack, may tack “God and Liber
ty !” to every sentence of their proclamations;
but in that sountiy these things mean nothing.
High sounding patriotism in words, is made to
cover some sinister design in deeds, and pure
love of country has nothing to do with the
question. We will give a short history of one
revolution upon the same ground where this
last outbreak has been fomented.
Soma twelve years ago Canales—and perhaps
this same Carvajal waa engaged with him—got
up a regularpronunciamento against the Central
Government, which was as purely a money ma
king speculation as was ever concocted. The
proclamations issued at the time were fairly boil
ing over with liberty, death to] oppression, and
all that sort of thing. Obtaining, by false pre
tences, the services of the gallant Jordan and
somo two hundred Texans, Canales succeeded
in driving the Central forces entirely beyond the
Sierra Madre, thus gaining possession ol Saltillo,
the Rinconada, Monterey, and all tho strong
points on the line. The slaughter effected by
Jordan’s men, In the Peach Orchard fight near
Saltillo, waa so terriUe, that the Mexican
leader came to him afterwards, and asked
him if hla men could not carry on a
battle without bringing about such destruction
of life. Jordan frankly told him that it was a
way his men had, and that he thought it would
be difficult to break them of it. We have heard
this story told so often by Texans that we be
lieve it.
The route of the Central forces at Saltillo waa
to all Intents and purposes a successful finish
ing stroko to the revolution, and Canales had
now but little to do aavo to organize a separate
Government, and set up a new republic for him
seli and frisnds. But this waa not his object.
He had gained a good stand, if it may be so
termed, and his only desire was to sell out his
successful reve'ution at a bargain. We do not
know how the sale and transfer were offected—
are unacquainted with the modus operandi by
which.a compromise was brought about—but we
can imagine that or emissary from tho
Central Government, in the shape of a priest, or
perhaps some authorized civil or military func
tionary, appealed in the camp of Canaies em
powered to make overtures. We can further
imagine that Canales made answer to these
overtures something in the wise following:
Here I am, as you sec, at the head of a revolu
tion successful in every particular ; nnder tho
popular flag of Federalism we have driven Cen
tralism beyond the mountains.
Now, it will cost you (we give round figures)
one million oi dollars to collect a force at Mate
huala and San Luia Poto&i, the nearest points
in your power, sufficiently large to cope with
us with any hope of Why go to that
heavy expense, when I am willing to sell out all
my right and title to this revolution I have on
my hands for five hundred thousand dollars ? I
make you this proposition, one certainly most
liberal—and by accoding to it you will save ha!i
a million of dollars, besides a deal of bloodshed.
In consideration of the five hundred thousand
dollars I will strike my flag, disband my Mexi
can. followers, disarm my Texan auxiliaries, and
again come under and swear fealty to the yoke
ts the Central Government.
Such, we can easily imagine, was the nature
of the deliberations held in the camp of the Fed
eral leaders after the battle near Saltillo. At
all events, it is matter of history that Canales,
when completely successful at everyjroint—
after having been triumphant over the Central*
ists in every battle—suddenly save up all the
fruits of his victories for a consideration in the
way of dollars and cents, disbanded hia Mexican
followers, and for a time settled himself down as
a good citizen of the entire Republic.
His main d fficulty waa wiih Jordan and his
men, who had borne the brunt of all the hard
fighting. When Canales told the Texans and
their leader that he had given up his revolution
ary undertaking, and that they must lay down
their arms and adopt peaceful pursuits, they at
once saw that they had been betrayed, and utterly
refused to part with their trusty rifles. Tbe
perfidious Mexican persisted; yet Jordan not
only remained firm, but collecting all his men
started off with the intention of cutting his
way out of a country where he had been so shame
fully treated. And in this daring undertaking he
succeeded ; for although a force of Federalists
and Centralists, five times greater than hißown,
pursued and overtook him, in a single engage
ment, fought we believe near Lampasos, he
beat them back with loss, and after that found
his mareh into Texas unimpeded.
Wo do not say that such * ill be the ending of
the present revolution beyond the Rio Grande,
we do not even think it will have such a result;
but we hastily throw the facts of a former rup
ture with the Central Government together, to
let our readers know of what stuff some of the
revolution-mongers in Mexico are made. A few
weeks will let us know more of the ultimate in
tentions of Carvqjal, and we shall use all en
deavors to keep our readers acquainted with the
progress of the revolution.
Effects or the Coe as affair Abroad.-
The Newark Daily Advertiser publishes the
following extract from a private latter, just re
ceived from Turin, Sardinia, which shows the
effeot produced upon tbe minds of foreign
statesmen, who are just now watching with in
terest the operations of our iaetitutiona Nat.
Intelligencer.
“Tha Cuban affair has deeply mortified the friends
ot free institutions here, and given the absolutists the
meena of fresh denunciation. Exaggerated accounts
of the riotous meetings and mobs in some of the chief
oities are published at length in all the papers, and
lead to an impression that there is realiy no antidote
to psrsion in our country; no security, no power in
law, no pdblie conscience, no sense oi justice. The
eonservetive elements » hose sure end noiseless ope
rations seeure society against these occasional disor
ders, are not discernible at this distance, while
lynebing on the Pacific and piracy on tho Atlantic
coaata are magnified into charaoteriatics of popular
freedom. And tho absolutists tbue find fresh argu
ments for standing armies and the oppression of tho
people. Oh, that our countrymen could be roueed to

Godey’e Lady’s Book.
We have received the November No. of
Gody—the pearlofthe monthlies—both through
the publisher, and Messrs. Gao. A Oates ,&
Co. of this city. In the way of illastrations
Godey has no equa', and the number before
us every way fully sustains the character of
the work. Edited by Mrs. Sarah J. Hale,
and with a list of contributors embracing
nearly all the distinguished literary Writers of
oar country, what more could the Lmdy’e
Book become than it now is T
Graham's Maoazieb for November, is also
on our table. Scarcely inferior to Godet in
the beauty of its iliustra'tons, and at least equal
aad more masculine in its literary contents,
it is deservedly a favorite and popular Maga

The Louisville Courier of the 17th instant,
aays:
It is a singular faot, that while all the impor
tant provision markets of the world are de
clining daily, great excitement and bighprieee
prevail in the hog market; and it is very evi
dent that hogs are too high, or provisions are
too low. And it may be well for all parties to
remember, that high prices for hogs do not al
ways result in high prioes for their product.—
Id the last sixty days pork has declined in New
York aad New Orleana about $2 par barrel,
and baeon sides have just given way 2 cents
per pound in Cincinnati.
The Cincinnati, Commercial of the 18th in
slant esys :
The 4 killing season’ threatens a later com
mencement than for several years past, on
sccountof the drouth. Thousands of hogs
which should now be here, are detained in the
interior of Kentucky in consequence of the
eeoutry through which they are to be driven
being entirely destilute of water. Should the
drouth continue, of course there will bea delay
ia operations, and our butchers mastlneoessari

had occurred after the passage of that act.
The Commissioner replied ihat ha could not

Washihotok, Oot 23.—An error occurred
in my despatch of Tuesday. The answer of
our Government in regard to Cuban affairs
was directsd especially to France, which, be
sides making unpalatable representationa on
that subject, ordered e portion of her public
marine to sconr the coast of the United States,
thereby at once offending the national dignity,
and encroaching upon the national right. The*
England seconded, or et least approved, the
policy of France, is true, as already stated, and
therefore the reply applies as directly to one ae
to the other government. Those who have
the oeet means of knowing, speak of Mr. Crit
tenden’s despatch in reference to this interfer

not send forward their crops very freely. The
demand has been good, and all received has been
sold. We bad a severe frost on Thursday night lust,
which in connection with European advices gave an
aoimated tone to our market on Friday, and prices
advaneed * a |e. On Saturday, the Niagara'sad
vices came to hand, and early Monday morning the
Pacific’s accounts, wLichproduced little or no effect
on our market.
Wa have had three killing frosts, an Thursday,
Sunday and Monday nights. The first extended as
far south as we have received intelligence by mail
and we doubt not was general. We quote Pair Cot
ton Bc.{ Middling Fair 7| a 7J for a strict classifies
tion. Infer ior grades are little sought after. To day
the business has been limited, and prices, if any
thing, a shade easier. The Europa’s news, in our
columns this morning, did not reach this city till
after the close of business.
GROCERIES.— In the leading articles of Groce
ries we have no change to notice. There has been
throughout the week, a steady, moderate business
doing, without any marked feature. The stocks,
though light for the reason, owing to the suspension
of navigation on our river, are ample for the demand.
We have revised our quotations, and would refer to
them for a fair index of the market.
BAGGING AND ROPE.—Limited demand.
Very few planters orders received. Prices without
change.
BACON. —The stock is light, and prices without
change. We notice a decline at the West of If a 2
cents per lb., but it has not and eannot immediately
affect our market. Sea quotations.
GRAIN. —We continue to quote Wheat $1 a
$1,25. CORN 75 a 85, according to quality.
SALT. —We quote Liverpool ground $125 a
$1,37$ per sack.
FEATHERS —Have somewhat advanced, owing
to scarcity, and are held at 32 a 35 cents.
SUGARS AND MOLASSES.—Demand mode
rate, no change in prices.
EXCHNGE. -Checks on the North § prem.
FREIGHTS.—By the River nothing doing. To
Charleston, on ahd after to day, the rate will be
seventy-fire cents per bale.

LIVERPOOL, Oct, 10.—Since the sailing of the
America (which conveyed my last circular advices
dated 3d inst.) no new feature has presented itself in
•ur cotton marker, which has continued steady, with
a fair amount of business doing, and without variation
in rates. The demand for export has again mate
rially aided holders (who ars free sellers) to obtain
last week’s and but for which we shtuld
prcbably have had to notics a decline in prices, as
speculators have been comparatively inactive, and
the visit of ber Majesty the Cl seen to this and the
adjoining towu of Manchester, has somewhat inter
fered with the inquiry from the trade.
The sa'.cs s nee Friday to Wednesday (remainder
of the week being kept as holidays) amount to 29,-
090 bales, which Include 4000 to exporters, and
1,8-0 to speculators, of which 22,360 bales ars
American; exporters taking 2,400, and speculators
230 bales.
Import far same time amounts to 23,528 bales, of
which 13,483 ars American Estimated stock thi9
day 549,040 bales,of which 361,450 sra American.
Same time last year 548,640 bales, of which 356,260
were American.
Prices to-day—New Orleins fair 6d.; aidJling

nary 4}.
There has been little or nothing doing in new bu
siness this week in Manchester, and the marke s

Report for the Week ending Oct 8.
Since our Cotton report of Friday there is no
change in our market. A moderate demand, not ac
tive, baa been found sufficient to keep us steady in
prices, and we retoin our last report’s quotations
without change. Tbe further accounts from the U.
States gives us aothing new upon the ail important
subject of the coming crop.
As far as we can fudge from the numerous opin
ions and advices frost all quarters, (he tendency is
rather to reduce from the excessive qiantity first es
timated ; from Alabana, decidedly so. 2?0 Ame
rican, 72(1 Surat, and 870 Egyptian have been taken
on speculation, and 2400 American, 1500 Surat. 10
Egyptian, 30 Pern<m, end 60 Hahia for eiport.--
The sales for the week amount to **9 990 bales.
HAVRE, Oct. B.— Cotton —Since our report o*
the Ist inst, we bavs received later advices from tbe
States per Franklin, say under date New Yo-k, 20th,
ani New Orleans, 19th alt., by electric telegraph,
which announce a * decline in the former market, on
reeeiptof accounts from Europe, and thesoutbein
markets having undergone various fluctuations, and
cotton in Near Orleaca beginning to come in pratty
rapidly. Wednesday, under the influence of our
advices by ths Amer'ea, which led us to expect a mo
mentary arrest in New York, Liverpool and Man
chester having looked upon the same very passively,
oar market remains very dull, sales not exceeding
350 bales.
Thursday, the demand was rather more brisk, and
700 bales were realized; hut the same inactivity of
tbe day before prevailed oa Friday, when sales closed
at4oobalee| and Saturday, about 600 baleßonly
changed hands withont any marked alteration in our
rates, whieh generally speaking, however, are If.
below our former quotation! for descriptions most in
request. On Sunday, we were in p-'seersiou of tbe
Liverpool report, giving only 33,500 bales rales, end
|d. decline during tbe wsek then closed, which,
however, was anticipated; so that oar holders, act
ing under ths existing smafi stock, seem determined
to maintain priese; but as there exists about 6,000
bales landing just at present, of course a good deal
more Cotton appears offered for sale than wo havo
seen for some time—and on tbe other hand, the gen
eral opinion is, that prices mvstgo dawn in the States,
and arrivals are looked for about the end of the year,
in addition to our regular New York liners, whieh
now come foil laden with the article.
On Mosday we had an activa demand, and sales
reached 1200 bales; and yesterday about 900 bales
found buyers, although we look for our letters per
steamer Niagara, the arrival of which we have learnt
via Southampton. To sum op, the sales of the week
reach 4502 bales against 4460 bales imports, and oui
stock on hand may ba valued at 38,000 bales, of
which 34,200 bales, only United States. The fol
lowing were among the oalea effected, vis 1 1660
bales New Orleans F. 65 a 89; 763 bales Mobile F.
77 a 85; 1336 bales Upland F. 63 a 84.
