WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEB’Y 13.
i>r. Craae’s Lecture To-night.
We have no kind of doubt but there will be a )
numerous and intelligent audience at the Masonic j
Hal! ibis evening, to bear Dr. Crank's Lecture on j
the subject and treatment of diseases of the throat j
and lungs, by the new system of inhalation of j
oxygen and electro-medicated vapors, as a cure for
consumption and all diseases of the throat, lungs,
and air passages. Also, upon the new and wonder
ful discovery of Prof. M. 1 eugne s, in the treat
ment and cure of all functional diseases by elec
tricity and the extraction of mercury and other
foreign metals from the system by electro-chemical
baths.
The suojcct is a novel and interesting one; and
there is no better way to bring its merits before
public than by public Lectures, and no surer
mode of exploding the theory or principle, if found
not to abide tbe test of stern inductive truth.
>lr. Thackery’s Last Lecture.
This eminent lecturer closed his course last even
ing, io his entertaining and instructive Lecture on
George IV. The early training of this personage,
“horn t.i greatness,"—his ripening manhood, -
full ol the excesses of the “high-blood” times in
which he lived—his royal grandeur, and often abor
tive and disgraceful public policy, interspersed
with humorous anecdotes of prominent poetic and
historical celebrities, afforded general approbation
to his highly respectable and intelligent audience.
Mr. Tn.u’KERY leaves for Savannah this morn
ing, and commend him to the pleasant hospi
talities of our seaboard city.

[.Sir. Rep., Feb. 12.
It is Time to Decide. -Never since its founda
tion has Abolitionism evinced so clearly and un
disguisedly us settled determination to trample un
der foot the constitutional rights of the South—
never lias sectional fanaticism wielded so powerful
an influence—never have the anti-slavery faetion
ists been so largely represented in the national
legislature as a: present. In view of these facts,
it becomes the imperative duty of all national men.
and especially of southern national men, to con
sider well the issue that approaches. The danger
steals not upon them ! They are forwamed of the
designs of their enemies! Tiie fault will be theirs
if they fail to prepare to avert the peril. Upon
the issue that is approaching, there can be
but one national position—but one position for
patriots and friends of the Union. That position
the national Democratic party occupies. It occu
pies the only platform which is not hounded by
sections—-whic.j embraces the whole L’nion. It,
m a word, is the only national opponent of sec
tionalism—.he ouiy parly which, North and South
stands united in defence of the ( mat nation The
minds of the people should he prepared for the* is
sue. Taey should calmly and ai»pa«>iouatelv con
sider the nature of the coming contest, and mdgo
for themselves what are the interests which u u -ju
involve. This done, as patriots they will take their
stand under that banner upon which their rights
are inscribed —the banner which has ever waved
in the thickest of the tight when their interests
have been assailed, which is the banner of the
people of the Constitution and the Union.
Washington Uritn.
A letter has been received at the Srate Depart
ment, Washington. I). C., from IL noiulu. sand
wich Islands, dated December 4th, in which the
writer states that strong fears were felt by the cit
izens of Hilo that the lava would destrov the town.
The fiery stream bad reached within eight miles
of the place, and the rapid progress of the lava, the
worn apprehens: ns were entertained
“ Watchman, What of the Night ?”
The election of Mr. Haves to ihe position of
Speaker of the House, in Congress, and the con
gratulations and rejoicings which have followed
that event in the free States, should not be without
their impressive moral lesson to the people of the
South. Those demonstrations were not made from
a mere personal regard for the man —not made,
because of the election of a Speaker —but the can
nonading, bonfires and illuminations, were em
ployed to express their ardent delight at the Tri
umph of their anti-slavery and Anti-Kansas prin
ciples. While the welkin is ringing with the loud
huzzahs and shouts of triumph at the North—while
cities and villages are illuminating their ice and
snow-covered streets, and gladdening the hearts of
tiieir population —while these scenes are enacting,
“ Watchman, what of the night " in the South.
\\ here are our bonfires, our illuminations, our tri
umphant shouts? If the National American or
Know Nothing party hadcordiallv and unanimous
ly sustained the Democratic party, in its efforts to
destroy Black Republicanism, iu the contest for
Speaker, by only four of their six recussant mem
bers, the triumphs, and the bonfires, and the illu
minations would have been made, in the east and
in the west, and in the north and in the south,
wherever the Democracy could have gathered even
a corporal’s guard, to shout out the gladsome tri
umph- of the constitutional party of the country.
It is almost unnecessary to refer to the causes
which have produced this emboldened front among
the Black Republicans. It is known to have ob
tained its active existence in the disorganization
of parties in the North which followed the advent
ol' Know Nothingism in that region. Under its
black flag and secret associations, it marched in
proud triumph, and the political complect ion of the
House of Representatives in Congress, is the legit
imate result—the election of Banks a consequence—
and their present, congratulations and triumphs al
the North are their “ apples of gold in pictures
of silver."
Can such thing.-! be.
And overcome us like a summer cloud,
Without our special wonder."
All the fag ends of parties were initiated into
the mysteries of Northern Know Nothingism, and
organized a party for the purpose of opposing the
present administration, and the party that sustains
it. In the South, branches of the same order were
instituted. Now. if there were a Black Republican
majority in the Senate, where could the people of
:he South rely for a protection to their rights and
interests —to President Pierce, whom Southern
Know Nothings have so bitterly reviled. What
taves them in the Senate? The Democratic ma
jority of that party which they have so liberally
denounced. These are stubborn facts, and the
people of the South cannot think of them too of
en, nor estimate them too highly.
All parties are now marshalling their forces,
Nr the great Presidential contest. The Black Re
mblicans in the Free States, and the Democratic
>arty of the Union, are the prominent and great
ontending parties. It is not unreasonable to pre
ume, that combinations may be formed, by which
he Know Nothings will ran electorial tickets in
omc of the Southern and Middle States, in order,
f possible, to throw the election of President inn
ho House of Representatives. If such an effort is
nude, it will be for the purpose, or at least will
lave the effect of electing a Black Republican Pres
dont of the L'nited States. The party that elected
Links as Speaker, can elect Gibdings or Seward
or President.
It is wise for the people of the South to calmly and
seriously consider these matters now, before their
feelings are led away in the strife of parties.
Vhat party sustains the South and the Constitu
ion ?
We select a few from the many notes of exulta
; ion, which we find in the papers on our table:
Compliments to Mr. Banks. —A salute of one
mndred and three guns, corresponding with the
lumber of votes by which Mr. Bunks was elected
Speaker, was tired on the Commons in Boston, Mon
lay forenoen, in honor of bis election. Saturday
■vening, the Republican head-quarters, in Wasli
ngtou street, Boston, were illuminated, as was also
he Republican Reading Room in Charlestown,
n Waltham, on Saturday, a general jubilation ea
rned, and on Monday another salute of one hun
lied and three guns was fired.
The Boston Bee says:
“In Waltham, Mr. Banks’ residence, to which
in express was run, and through the streets of
vhich the intelligence was spread by a flying cour
er—like the news of the capture of Cornwallis in
lie revolution—several spontaneous illuminations
ook place; bonfires were lighted; rockets let off,
1 md one reverend gentleman, who was waited up
in by a crowd of enthusiastic Banks-men, came
cat in bis bare feet —the thermometer at fifteeu be
ow zero—and made a speech, congratulating his
fellow citizens upon the ‘auspicious termination of
he struggle between the friends and foes of free
lom.’ ”
“Eyes Right, Stars ßtuonr.” — The BostonJour
■uxl, speaking of the new Speaker at. Washington,
makes one or two pregnant suggestions :
“Under his administration, the committee on
elections will doubtless be so constituted as to sc
•ure a favorable report upon the claim of Governor
Reeder to a seat in the House, and we may reason
iblv anticipate that the committee on territories
will recommend the admission of Kansas under
her Free State Constitution. There is a better
irospect. with the present organization of the
House, of adjusting the difficulties which have
grown out of the ill-starred repeal of the Missouri
compromise, than there has been ai anv time since
that iniquitous act was consummated. ' f
The Boston Atlas, commenting upon the same
event, says:
“But this election has afar higher importance
than any to be deduced from mere personal con
sideration. It is the first national triumph of a
new party summoned into existence by the gross
mismanagement of the government, rendered an
Absolute necessity by the exigencies of the time,
tnd now organized for the vindication of violated
•ompacts —a party which, in spite of seeming a Mu
dies, is a new entity, indepiendent of the past, n f/fon
dblc for the mistakes of no organisation, living or
had; a creation of the present, formed to meet, the
demand and necessities of the present. The adniin
stration has itself evoked an opposition, which in
the lii-Mi year of life lias wrested from it a great
majority in the House.
The "Want of Capital.
Many a young man looks into the future with
despondency, because he has not the capital which
he thinks is necessary to make a successful start
io the world. Young men of really good powers, 1
and more than the ordinary share of human ener
gy, sometimes waste much time and effort in de
vising means to accomplish a set purpose; and
thus frequently embarrass themselves by the par
tial success which they' achieve. They make the
start they proposed, in debt and under heavy obli
igations, and if they succeed in the end, it is at
the cost of a weary, anxious and almost desperate
encounters with the perplexities of their position.
\Ve do not by any means disesteem the spirit
which impels a young man to an effort of this sort,
but it is frequently and generally the case, we be
lieve, that he can put his demand for tho aid of
capita! into a better shape.
.Skill, tact, energy-, honesty, intelligence, accura
cy, promptitude, zeal, are all qualifications which
liave their money value, and possess a fair claim
upon the capital'jvhicli they keep in profitable nee. ;
It is not in every case where capital employs and
presents an equivalent for these things, that they
can successfully demand a share in tho general
proceeds. Capital, itself, in some forms in which
it is employed, is superior to them. And it is the
natural tendency of capital to maintain its inde
pendence of all incidental service. Rut there are
numerous instances in which the superior talent,
business tact, and the efficient service of young
men will commend them to a participation in ihe
; proceeds of a business—especially one to which
they have or may be able to contribute measurably
m its success. It should, therefore, be the stead
fast aim of a young man, in whatever service he
ntav be employed, to make the best use of his time 1
i and ability, and thus to establish his value, and, if !
i possible, the indispensable quality of his services.
If he cannot, by so doing, succeed in his hopes
and ambition with the particular house in which
he is engaged, he is in a fairway to commend him
self to the favorable notice of others, and, in the
cud, thus realize an equivolent in capital and its
proceeds, for the qualities he brings to bearsucces
! fully upon it.
Thousands of young men fail to commend them
selves to higher favor and better fortune in the 1
pursuit, trade or profession in which they mav bp
engaged, by doing only just so much as the letter
i of their engagement, or the conditions implied in
it seem to demand. Many capable of doing more,
are restrained bv what others do. Some do not
like to seem officious; others are afraid of the
opinions, sneers and ridicule of their companions,
.lam absolutely feel these things as a bond around
them, w ho are continually impelled to more earnest
; and effect,ve effort. Yet those onlv make th-hr
in the worid who act
in ependent of all unjust and unnatural restraint,
and do what they can and when they can, and
provethemsekes to be men to be relied on upon

From tb Washington Union.
Where will the South Americans go t
Political parties in this country are to be distin- j
guished the one from another only by the princi- '
pies which they advocate. Men professing the
same political principles are necessarily classed in
the same political party, without regard to their lo- j
calitios, whether they live North or South. Looking i
around us, we see oh all sides a party, or rather we
see a number of parties, which may "be classed un
der the general term reposition. These parties .
have but one common principle, or we should, per- j
haps, call it prejudice, upon which they agree :
North and South—that is, opposition to the Demo- -.
cratic pan v. As to any system of foreign or do
mestic policy for administering the affair-, of the
government,'they have not pretended to offer one. j
They have no particular fault to find with the for- j
eigh and domestic policy of the Democratic party •
or the manner in which it has been administered.
There are those, it is true, who believe, or pro
fess to believe, that the miserable Know Nothing
dogmas of political proscription and religious in- ;
tolerance should be adopted as a part of our nation- !
al policy. There are othciis who are assailing ;
most bitterly the Democratic party for its defence !
of the Constitution and the Union upon the slave- :
ry question. This wing is purely sectional, aud
for that reason the southern Know Nothings, who
are a minority of the opposition, cannot publicly ;
and directly, at least, act with them. Thus it will ;
be seen that the opposition of the Democratic party j
maybe classed under two beads--the Know No- j
things, embracing all of the southern wing of the j
opposition, together with a large majority of the j
northern wing ; and the Abolitionists, embracing |
all the northern wing of Know Nothingism, together j
with the minority opposition of the North who are
anti-Ivnow Nothing. It will also be seen that all of
one division of trie opposition comes from the !
North, and also a large majority of the other j
division. It will also be seen that nearly all of the i
northern opposition are Abolitionists, and a great !
majority of them Know Nothings. The Abolition :
opposition, therefore, may be set down at three- ;
fourths of the whole.
The country is on the eve of a political contest |
anomalous in its character as it is important in
the consequences which may result from it. It is
to be a contest between nationalism and sectional- j
ism—between the Constitution anti the Union on j
the one hand, and Abolitionism and disunion on !
the other. This contest, will, in all human proba- j
billty, atiect very materially the destiny of the |
American Union tor years to come, if it do not tie- i
cide its fate torever. This is not the mere parti- |
sail opinion of a political journalist, but the deep
conviction pervading the public mind of the whole
country, which no careful observer can have failed
to notice. It is but a just and natural anxiety and
apprehension on the part of the patriotic people
for the welfare of their country’s honor. The Ab
olitionist or northern opponents of the Democracy
have been steadily increasing in strength from
, year to year. Determined, vigilant, and unscrupu- j
lons, they have eagerly availed themselves of the
aid of every ism, political or social, for the fur- -
therance of their one great design. Thus controll
ing State legislatures, nullifying the laws of Con j
j gress, and resisting their execution even to the last ’
I extremity, they at length aspire even to control the j
j Federal Government. One branch of the Federal :
| legislature they already have. In the coming con
, test they aim to possess themselves of the execu- |
; tive. The minority, or southern portion of the
opposition, consisting entirely of Know Nothings,
i profess to differ as widely with the Abolitionists
‘ proper and the Abolition Know Nothings, upon
1 the slavery question, as do the national Democra
! :v. The question is, with such a contest before
i them, What will they do? Will they honestly
| recognise the slavery question as the one great is
! sue upon which the contest is to be made, and bold
ly take sides with the partv with whom they agree
j in defence of the constitutional rights of the South
] and the < xistence of the Union? Or will they reck
i lessl v “pretermit all expression of opinion” "on this
! great question, and continue to assail the Demo
•ratic party, thereby giving direct aid to the Abe
| litionists? What the Abolitionists will do. we
{ know; the question is, What will southern Know
Nothings do ?
j “If their love of tbe Union predominates or er
j their prejudices in respect to race and religion, they
. an give toit successful actioii only by co-opt rating
; with the Democratic party. All iheir efforts in
I any other direction will, as in the late struggle
i in the House, tend only to the triumph of trea
| sonable designs under the mask of Republicanism.
! Tbs choice between nationalism and sectionalism
j —between love of the whole country and only a
, pari of it—cannot be longer postponed.”
Additional b> the Persia.
The new British steamship Persia arrived at New
York at 10 o’clock on Saturday morning, from
Liverpool, having made the passage in fourteen
days. The steamship Pacific sailed from Liverpool
on her regular day, January 23d, three days prior
to the Persia. She had forty-seven passengers and
a full cargo of merchandise’.
The London Globe announces that Her Majesty
has signified her intention of opening Parliament
in person.
the Persia brings intelligence of further pr.
gress towards peace. Orders have been transmit
ted from St. Petersburg to the Russian army in
the Crimea, to cease all further hostilities until
the results of the approaching negotiations be
known. IT is also stated that the French and Eng
lish Cabinets have come to a perfect agreement as
to the mode in which the negotiations are to be
carried on.
Tbe acceptance of the Austrian propositions has
been published officially at St. Petersburg. The
announcement states that, the chief condition is
tin- neutralization of the Black Sea. to be secured
by a treaty between Russia and Turkey, Russia
being ready to discuss tbe other points.
U the same time the bellig -rent powers continue
their preparations for an earnest continuance of
the war, should peace not result from the present
endeavors. It was stated, but afterwards contra
dicted, that Generals Pelissier, Codrington, and
Omar Pasha had, like Gortscbakoff’, received or
der- from their respective Governments to stop
hostilities. Such orders will not he sent till an ar
mistice be formally concluded.
The cannonade from Northern forts continued,
and was replied to at intervals by the allies. Two
more of the docks had been blown up. It is stated
that thirty thousand Russians had appeared be
tween OtcliakofT and Petroviski. From Rutschuk
we hoar that a serious collision had taken place
between the Turkish and Austrian soldiers in
that city.
The Courier dUs Hurt slated that an order from
Paris, dated afternoon of 23d, has directed that the
loading of the ships intended for the Crimea shall
be provisionally suspended.
’J hese favorable indications have given increased
advance and firmness to the funds, both English
and Continental.
Accounts from the Crimea are to the 6th January.
The cold was intense, and the sea iiad frozen along
the const.
Russia.--A Hamburg despatch dated the 23th,
announces that a new loan to the amount, of 600,-
000 silver roubles will be immediately collected bv
the Russian Government in Find land in aid of the
expenses of the war.
This mode of increasing the Russian treasury
participates of the character of a compulsory con
tribution or forced loan.
England and the Peace Preliminaries. —The
Vienna correspondent of the Times states that in
that capital the most strenuous efiorts are making
to induce England not to insist on the disarming
of the Russian fortresses on the Eastern shores iff
the Black Sea.
Great complaints are made of the inconceivable
obstinacy of Sir Hamilton Seymour in this matter.
It is feared that the British Government will not
consent to sign the preliminaries of peace until a
perfectly clear interpretation has been given to the
fifth proposition.
The Daily .Yews, in a leading article says : “\Vc
learn, on authority which renders it impossible for
us to doubt the correctness of the statement, that
a preliminary treaty of peace will lie signed proba
bly before Tuesday—certainly before the meeting
of Parliament.
“An armistice will be concluded immediately af
ter the signature of this preliminary treaty fur s
limited period, mid negotiations with a view to a
final comprehensive treaty will be commenced im
mediately.
“We are given to understand that it is the deter
mination of the allied powers to exercise to the
full extent the right reserved to them by the fifth
article of the Austrian proposals, to bring forward
additional stipulations to the general interests of
Europe.”
A private letter from St. Petersburg, quoted by
the Paris correspondent of the Tivvs, states that
the public mind was greatly agitated, and that
there would be nothing surprising in the fact of an
outbreak.
