Refused to honor the President elect.
--The Duqueane Greys, a leading military company of Pittsburg, held a meeting on the evening prior to the arrival of Mr. Lincoln at that city, and unanimously refused to take part in the formal reception accorded him.--The Greys, it will be remembered, acted as a guard of honor to the Prince of Wales on his passage through Pittsburg.

Lincoln's speeches.
The speeches of Lincoln on his route from Springfield to Washington ought to be collected in a volume and published for the admiration of posterity.
Without this, we don't believe it will be possible to convince the world Lincoln on his route from Springfield to Washington ought to be collected in a volume and published for the admiration of posterity.
Without this, we don't believe it will be possible to convince the world hereafter that such a complete Sancho Panza of a fellow was ever actually elected to the Chief Magistracy of a great Republic.
If such a volume should be published, accompanied by undeniable certificates of the authenticity of these speeches, it wo of doom.
The Inspired volume forbids us to speak "evil of dignities," and, therefore, after the 4th of March next, when Lincoln becomes one of the dignities we shall not call him a fool or an ass. His absurd utterances on the route to Washington ce
We should as soon think of putting out a fire in the dome of St. Peter's with a penny squirt as to expect such a man as Lincoln to overcome the portentous difficulties that now threaten this country.--By all means let his speeches from Springfield

Representative men.
As Southern men, we are quite willing that Lincoln and Davis should stand before the world as representative men of their two sections.
But, in spite of all the wrongs and robberies which the South has suffered' from Northern abolitionism, and the fact that the North deliberately selected Lincoln as its rLincoln as its representative man, we will do it no such injustice as to avail ourselves of the advantage which its own action has placed in our hands.
A section which can boast such names as O'Conner, Dickinson, Everett, Winthrop, &c., even though they cannot be elected to office, cannot be said to be entirely represented by such a person as LinLincoln, The conservative minority in the North are among the noblest of mankind.
Conservatism in the South is a recommendation to official promotion and honors, and may not be always disinterested; in the North, it signs a man's political death- warrant.
Yet in every city, in every town and county of every Northern State, there are
Lincoln promises to learn.
In Lincoln's Pittsburg speech he says: "I must confess I do not understand the Tariff subject in all its multiform bearings, but I promise you I will give it my closest attention and endeavor to comprehend it fully." Imagine Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, or even an ordinary member of Congress, confessing to their constituents on their way to Washington, that they did not understand the Tariff subject, but would endeavor to comprehend it after theyLincoln's Pittsburg speech he says: "I must confess I do not understand the Tariff subject in all its multiform bearings, but I promise you I will give it my closest attention and endeavor to comprehend it fully." Imagine Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, or even an ordinary member of Congress, confessing to their constituents on their way to Washington, that they did not understand the Tariff subject, but would endeavor to comprehend it after they got to Washington!
It would be well if Abraham had nothing else to learn besides the Tariff.
When he arrives at Washington, he will have to "comprehend" that "coercion" is easier to talk of than practice, and that a man of half sense can never rule in such times as these over a whole country.

Majorities Ruling.
In Mr. Lincoln's Pittsburg speech, he declared that majorities ought to rule, and if his policy was not liked as President, the majority ought to turn him out. According to his own rule, he ought not to be President at all, for there was a large majority of the people's vote against him. He is a minority President, a fact which ought to give him a faint conception of the idea that minorities in a constitutional republic sometimes have rights.
By the way, it is fair to infer from this Pittsburg speech, that the Illinois patriarch contemplates the possibility of his re-election.--What do Seward & Co. say to that?
From Charleston.special correspondence of the Dispatch. Charleston, Feb. 16, 1861.
The reports of Lincoln's triumphal speeches have caused in this whole community, among even those who had hoped he had some sense, sat universal feeling of nausea and disgust-- put on account of his dark forebodings as to coercion — for that is only for buncombe --but that man, who has been called to preside over this once great nation, should prove himself such a handling — so indirect — such a whining sycophant, as to ask a great motley on vocation of all the devil's imps there gathered to pray.
To pray for who and for what !That sacred devotion of a heart burdened approaching to the Great "I am," in faith and has to God, is to be the work of a great crowd of the most ungodly wretches, thirsting for the blood of the South (but too dastardly to attempt to get it,) stands and looks at this old, low-bred buffoon, and when he hypocritically calls to his motley associates, "pray for me," they w<
