The President fays he does not consid er it nocesjary at present for him to cuss those matters of administration about which there is no special imiety or inter est." There is rs reasonable cause for the Southern States to apprehend that their property, peace and security are to te endangered by the accession of the .Republican Administration. " Congress and the President are bound by their cath of oGice to faithfully execute the Fugitive Slave Law. He takes the cfEcial oath with no mental reservation and no purpose to conslrue the Coustitution and laws by cny hypocritical rules, and suggests that it will be much safer for all, both in offi cial and private stations, to conform and abide by all those acts which stand unre pealed, than to violate any of them. He holds that the Union was made to be per petual. But if viewed in the light of . an association of State?,' in the nature of a contract merely, can it, as a contract, be peaceably unmade unless by all the parties who made it ? No State, upon its own mere motion, can get cut'of the Un .ion; resolves and ordinances to that effect are legally void, and acts of violence with in any State against the authority cf the U. S. are insurrectionary or revolutionary. He therefore considers, that the Union is unbroken, and shall take, care that the laws of the Union be faithfully executed in all the States. In doing this, there need be no bloodshed or violence, and there shall be none unless it be forced, tip-m ihe national authority. The power confided to him will be used to hold and occupy the property, of the government, and collect duties oa imports but beyond what will be necessary for these objects, there will be no .using of force against or among people anywhere. While the. le gal right exists in the government to en force its officers there will be no attempt "made to force Federal officers among the people who object. The mails, unless re pealed, will continue to be furnished in all points of the Union. The course of the Administration, will be with a view of a peaceful solution cf the national trou bles and the restoration of the fraternal sympathies and affection. The President after disserting" on the rights and duties of majorities and minorities, says that he understands that a proposed amendment to the Constitution has passed Congress, to the efff ct that the Federal government ahall never interfere with the domestic institutions of the States. Although he holds that such a provision is now implied in the Constitution, he has no objection to its being made express and irrevocable. He concludes by an appeal to the people and the lovers of the Union. The message is regarded by Union men of all partiss as peaceful in its char acter and correct in its positions. V Andrew Johnson endorses it without qualification. Of course the secessionists call the message a war document and are already endeavoring to still further excite the people. That old arch traitor John Tyler, is out ia favor of Virginia seceding forthwith. .- " ; .The following is the new Cabinet: , -W. 1L ScwAitD.'of N. -Y., Sec'y of - . Slate. v. i-.v S. P.

Those who have made his acquaintance al over the Territory, bear uaited testimony to his energy, firmness cf character and -whole-souled politeness, and there can be eio question but Lis administration would be an entire success afhome, and honorably known by his extended influence abroad. We need, and must have a man at the head of affairs who can call the attention of prudent enterprise and capital to the wants and movements cf Nebraska. From some knowledge of men and their motives, W3 have no hesitancy in declaring, that the appointment of Dr. Evans would be in the first instance very acceptable to the masses cf the people; afterwards ar dently esteemed and fir'iiy an object of gratitude to the President for the wisdom of the act. . It is quite diverting to witness the course cf leading Democratic papers in the country, since the plans to assassinate the President elect have been discovered, BLd the designing perpetrators out-managed. They are cow disposed to laugh it off as a "good joke;" that they frigid tried the President , and hi3 friends; or charge that the Republicans themselves raised the reports for effect. They say if plans were on foot to assassinate Mr. Lincoln it devolves upon his friends to "pvllish the names of every conspirator." Of course, that would be a very easy job! Men who plot assassinations are always known to the public! They take pains that their names are known to all ! They go around and "tell folks". They stand on the corners cf streets proclaiming to the world that they are the men! No trouble to get their names! oh, no ! Won' somebody "publish the name of every conspirator?" That dodge won't .vork, gentlemen. You know that such plots' were on foot; and .but for their timely discovery the President would have been assassinated on his way to, or at the National Capitol. Democrats hereabouts- took the same position in regard to Dennison. "He would cot run off!" "He could have gone long ago if he wished!" "Need not watch him!". Such was the talk until now he is gone, they doubtless consider evinced great shrewdness. Forney says how true it is that those who lead in great revolutions can seldom control them! South Carolina having lujr ged the mother Cotton Slates out of the Union now lars behind them, fretlinjr. fuming, 's-weathg; and' con) plaint ng tha t iter patriotic UH p.TiJer eage counsels have . been disregarded. The PresrH dent is taken from another State, and the Vice President" is that Stephens, of Georgia, whose whole life has been" but one expression of contempt for the exam ple of South Carolina. We are watching wkh all due patience for the coming seces sion of South Carolina from the great Southern Confederacy. ' We see that our old friend Hon. S. II. Elbebt of Plattsmouth, figured conspic uously in the inauguration ceremonies at Washington : rode a "spanking bay," "white saddle cloth trimmed with blue," and wore "a blue fcarf and white rosette," carrying "a white baton, two feet long with pink ends two inches deep" was one of the assistant-marshals. .We'll bet there, was no "better looking" man tiere than Sam, with his "Sunday clothes" on. dins ia the States, can now count over their thousands; and this not the result of superior business qualities but simply I J.I .1 c- U V.

They charge tht he has a large local interest at the mcuJt cf the Platte river; has an extensive interest in a town, and has erected a strains ry, and ihre fort he would be a sectional Governor. We were 'not aware before that a man had to -tlistrilite his property in order to expand his patriotism; and that his oath of off;ce haJ only influence within the surveyed lines nl.his possessions. We presume they know li.at fact. Aain; they charge that he is an encr 'getic advocate vf Rail Roads, and desires atid is promoting a connection between Chicago and the tnoi.th of the Platte riv er. It i therefore evident that a spirit cf local joa!cnsy or rivalry as to town lots and rail voc'.u points, is the moving cause of eppvsiti. We admit the fact that Dn.

Golden Crrr, Feb. lSlh, '61. Dear Fuhnas: There is but little to write that will interest your readers, but nevertheless I will try and eke out a short communication, iu which, peradventure, something of interest may appear. The most interesting study, and one on which many curious speculations could be based, is the present occupation and mode cf. life cf many of the Pike's Peakers, as contrasted with their antecedents in the States. That tab', slim, peaked-nost-d yankee you sec? over the way, with his eye peeled, and neck sketched out like a hen after grass-hoppers, who is cutting wood for a dollar a day, and mining xCr a like sum when he can, was once Horace Greeley's overseer on his farm, some miles from New York city, and handling large sums of money. That good-na tured, pleasant looking, hut rather shabby individual, just going into the saloon, was, a few years ago, part owner and clerk on one of our lake steamers, and, as they say out here, "j:st worth a bushel cf money." That little, merry-faced speci men of the genvs koraci, has traveled over California and New Mexico, roamed all over the South American States, atid spent one, if cot two fortunes, and is now keep irg bar with wages hardly sufficient for the necessaries cf life. Your correspon dent is earning his board by cooking for a couple cf. young shoemakers, both cf whom luve occupied stations high in the social scale in the East, and one of them, a young Englishman whose father-is a man of considerable wealth in Great BrittjjQ a year ago was the proprietor of a largo boot and t-hoe, and also alarg hardware stora in Lawrence, Kansas. And so on ad ihjlhUur.K Whil?, on the ' sided in Rockport, and used frequently to visit Brownville, and who, even when cn a spree, was very qiiitt and gentlemanly in his deportment. It is with sorrow that I chronicle his violent and bloody death. Since coming to this country he had es tablished for himself a character as a reckless and desperate man, and when under the influence of liquor was consid ered dangerous. A few weeks ago, while cn a drunken fr'c at Central City, he cam? b a public house, near the door of which, a teamster by the name of Loon ey had blocked a couple of wagons, loaded with hay, which he was taking up into the mountains. Some devil prompted Riley to knock the blocks from under the wheels, which he did, and the freed wag oa rushed with tremendous velocity down the side of the mountain, breaking it to pieces and scattering the hay far and wide. Looney hearing the noise, ran out of the house just as Riley was performing a similar service for the remaining one. Riley was armed with 22 elht-iach Colt's revolver and a double-barreled shot gun. Looney took the gun from him, and Riley drew his pistol, firing at him twic, when the teamster shot him with his own gun, lodging three buckshot in the region of the heart. Riley fell instantly, but turn ed upon his face and clutching the pistol with both hands, fired again. That was the last act of his life, as he instantly ex pired, and when picked up a few minutes later, his hand still gripped the pistol with the grip of death. Mining news are very scarce just at present, from the fact that little has been done at it at present. But few mills are running, and they are scarcely able to pay expenses. There are some few gulch claims worked in the diferent districts where it is possible, but only in such ca ses where it is a question of bread and butler, I was going to say, but bacon will be more to the mark. None are working in the mines that can possibly avoid it. The fabulous reports which were current with regard to the San Juan mines have turned out a humbug, and many who were ne Has ! ! , , preparing io visu mem in ine spring nave been sadly disappointed. A hard living can be made here by mining almost anywhere in the mountains by extreme toil, and but comparatively few make more than' that. Some few diggings have paid well, and nuggets of considerable value have been taken out; but as,a general thing the gold is extreme- ly nne una 'very n.-ird loraver-i-ny :orreH making two dollars a day in" thj States, is a fool to come out here. The future may and undoubtedly will develope the resources of this country, and when its standard is fixed will be time enough to try the chances of this far western land. I cannot say much in favor of the agri cultural prospects of this country, though what arable land there is produces equal to any I hae ever seen; but it is not re markable in quantity. Take it altogeth er, I have not much faith that any great future is in store for us. About a mile from Golden City, and iust at the mouth of the canon, whence Clear Creek comes foaming down from ihe mountains, are the ruins of an ancient work, whether of a religious character, or a forti.ication against the invasion of oth er tribes, I am not well enough versed in the lore of antiquity to determine. It consists of two circles of large stones one within the other. The outer cirele is 150 feet ia diameter, and the inner some 55 feet. In the centre of the smaller one is a small mound, which some curiuus indi vidual has prospected, but I judge, with out any material result. The walls are now level with the ground, and how high it originally was, how long it has been built, who built it, and for what object, I leave to the speculations of others better able to determine such questions than my self. . But the greatest curiosity yet found in this country, was the skeleton of a human LoinjT.di-ovort., nrx,n South Clear Creek by a couple of miners while working their claims at a depth of 27 feet. It was ly ing upon its . face on the bed rock, and close by were found the roots of a red piiiO tree, deeply imbedded in the rock, and in a wonderful state of preservation. Unon exposure to the air, however, it soon crumbled into duct. The miners not being of a speculative turn of mind too'.i no pains to preserve the skeleton, and the skull was thereby lost, so that it was im possible to determine' to what race it be longed. . But as a gentleman of geologic al attainments remarks, it almost forces one to the conclusion that the Rocky Mountains are comparatively of modern date; that is, since the world has been in habited by man. Quite an excitement was ereatcd on Thursday evening, the 7th instant by the report of a duel to be fought next morn ing between Brig. Gen. Bowen, and a Dr. Bembrick, Dr. Rankin acting asBowen's second.,. The quarrel grew out of Dr. B. calling the General Colonel, instead of giving him his proper military title. The Doctor, as the challenged party, chose ri fles distance, 75 yards fire at the word the first shot, and load and fire as fast as possible until one or the other fell. The one o'clock in the morning Bowen went to a beer saloon, and woke the proprietor to pay him SI, 30 he owed for beer, saying he did not know lut he might be killed in the morning, and did not want it to lay heavy upon his conscience. The "affair" however, did not cone off, and the Gen eral "still lives." The weather, which probably should have been first on the list of items, has been more Lke spring thaa winter; th-re being but little snow, and but very few days when the thermometer was as low as 20 deg. below freezing point. Last Thurs day evening we had a small snow storm somewhat after the style of suowing, blowing and freezing, we have in Ne braska; but the sun rose warm and bright next morning, and by coon all the snow was gone, except where it had drifted in to the gulches and ravines. The Indians are not troublesome, tho' we have semi-occasional rumors of threat ened attacks by them, . which have thus far proved to be -ihcut foundation. The citizens have organized quite a large mil itary company, under the command of Capt. Gio. West, the fighting editor of the JVestern .Mountaineer The Captain says that ia dealing with the benighted sons of the prairie,-it is his opinion that the "sword is mightier thaa the pen." Wre are not altogether heathens out here, notwithstanding (as says our an cient friend Belden,) "we are truly in a western country." We have a dancing school, a debating . and literary society, and last, but by co means least, a good Masonic Lodge, consisting of some twen ty-five or thirty members, while constant accessions are being made to the ranks cf the Mysterious Brotherhood. . I will endeavor, hereafter to keep you regularly posted in matters and things out here, and when mining commences in the spring, will try and give you the most reliable news from the different districts. LEON. Me. Editor: As South Carolina is much talked of at the present day, perhaps it would be well to look back and see what she has been. She has an area of about. 30.000 square miles, and in 1830 had a population of 264,681 persons. In 1660 she had 309, 1S6, increase in 0 years, 43.402. She had also in 1830,315,401 two-legged cat tle. She now has 407,165, or an increase of 91,764. Counting her people, and pe culiar cattle, she now has 715,371, which Js-less iharrj21 to tho square mite. - She is nowdoing her best to destroy this nation, under' the pretence that she does not get her rights, but the fact is her people never were loyal to this gov ernment. Every history of the United States tells us that South Carolina was sadly infested with Tories in the war of Independence. When DeKalb asked Marion why the South Carolinians did not join the army who had come to fight for them, "Why, sir," answered Marion, "the people of Carolina form but two classes, the rich and poor. , The poor are generally very poor, because, not being necessary to the rich, who have slaves to do all their work, they get no employment from them. Being thus unsupported by the rich, they continue poor and low spirited. They seldom get money; and indeed what little they do get,- is laid out in brandy to raiae their spirits, and not on books and news papers to get information. The rich are generally very rich, and consequently are afraid to stir, lest the British should burn their houses and furniture, and carry eff their negroes and stock." "After Gates was defeated, Marion, in a speech to bis men (thirty in numhr-r), said; "Two gallant armies have been marched to our assistance; but for lack of competent commanders both have been lost. Thus are all our hopes from the North entirely at an end; and poor Caro lina is left' to shift for herself. A sad shift indeed, when not one in a hundred of her own children will rise to take her part; but, on the contrary are madly tak ing part with the enemy, agalasi her." "A short time before Marion's death in a conversation with Horry, he said: "What was it brought the British to Carolina again? after that drubbing they got from us at Ft. Moultrie, they would as soon have attacked the Devil as us, had they not heard that we were "a house divided against itself," or in other words, had amongst us a great number of Tories," , "Now it is generally believed. tbeBrit ish, after the loss of Burgoyne, and ihttr fine Northern army, would toon have giv en ud the contest, had it not been for the drtd milts, and when at Guilford, Greene was joined by two thousand militia men. What did he gain by thembutdisappoint ment and disgrace? For, though posted behind the cornfield fences, they could not stand a single fire from the British but broke and fled like base bora slaves, leaving their ba hJ musket's sticking in the fence corners!" Bat from this shameful sight, turn again to Bunker's Hill. There, behind apor ditch, you behold fifteen hundred militia men waiting the approach of three thousand British regulars. Will they, like their Southern friend.-', jump up and run? Oh no! they grasp their firelocks, and drawing their sights along the tubes, they long for the approach of the British thousands. Three times the British thous ands came up; and three times the daunt less 'yeomen received 'them in storms of thunder and lightning that shivered their ranks, and heaped the field with their carcasses.", ." Such was the language of Francis Mar ion a native Carolinian, and on-3 of '.he ' - heroes who gained onr freedom from the British. Were he alive z, Carolina now, and speak the buguage which I have quoted d'uove, his brother Car clinian3, in spite of hi3 distinguished services, would be very aptto hang him up to the first tree, as an incendiary abolitionist. In'a speech in the Senate .Tom Corwin said, "It is a truth, that when the Con stitution of the United Stales was made, South .Carolina and Georgia refused to come into the Union unless theshve trade should be continued for twenty yeBrs. So the history reads:- "I do not blame South Carolina and Georgia for this transaction, any more than I do those Northern States who shar ed in it. : "Thf-y had the power to prohibit it; but at the command. of these two States, they allowed that to be introduced into the constitution, to which much of slavery new existing in our land is clearly to be traced. For who can doubt but for that woeful bargain, slavery would by this time have disappeared from all the Slates then in the Union, with one or two exceptions. . "And just as you extend tho area of slavery so you multiply the difficulties which lie in the way of its extermination. "It had been irfimtely better that day that South Carolina and Georgia had re mained out of the Union for awhile, rath er than that' the Constitution should have been made to sanction the slave trade for twenty years." To .which your correspondent adds, "That's my mind, exactly, for the Caro linians and Georgians have now seceded from the Union, and one principal reason is, that they, may reopen the slave trade." Thirty years ago South Carolina tried to dissolve, the Union using as a pretext, that she was oppressed by the tariff. Yet the first thing almost that the kingdom cf Cottondom did after achieving their Inde pendence (on paper,) was to pass a tariff bill." ' ' " ----." Again in 1814, when ihe saw that the NoriLm-jicoDle. were orrosed'to the an nexation of Texas, she usedlhatas apre- text for secession; and one of the stand ing toasts of her chivalrous sons at public dinners was, "Texas and the Union," or "Texas without the Union." . Again in 1S50, Carolina and others wanted to "fly off the handle," because California asked to be" admitted into the Union with a Constitution prohibiting sla very, and ever since she has been threat ening to leave and is now "clean gene" because the abolitionists steal "niggers" from the border slave States. I am afraid that Carolina, is - infested with the descendents of some cf the tories cf the revolution. t Underwood, of Virginia says, (and I believe it is true,) "Men will always work better for the cash, than for the lash The free laborer will produce as much and waste a little as he can. The slave on the contrary, will produce as little and consume as much as possible." 'We have an instructive example or.' the one class, in the activity, enterprise, prosperity and intelligence of New Eng land, and of the other, in the pitiable condition of poor South CaroIinJ, a State which, by neglecting the Un(!.;.; ot her Marion, ZZ' mellowing her Butilers, her Brooks', her Keitts, and her Quattlebums, in the race of aristocracy and Africaniza tion, is rapidly sinking into agricultural sterility, bloated egotism and brutal barbarism."- Thus we see. that South Caro lina was disloyal at the time that "tried men's sojIs" came grudgingly into the Union when it was formed, and has been trying for at leust 30 years to dissolve it, has committed acts of hostility to our gov ernment, that we would not tolerate ia the jr.osi powerful iiaiiou on earth; and we are told that we must net use force to make her behave. The great border slave Slates say to her, "Carrie, you have done wrong, but they sha'nt punish you for it." They then "turn round to the Gov ernment and say, "You sha'nt march troops across cur soil to punish Cotton dom; if you undertake it we will welcome you with bloody hands to hospitable I 0" IS A VINES. .
