This being the case, can we suppose it wise to hazard a civil war?--Suppose Massachusetts or any large State, should refuse, and Congress should attempt to compel them, would not they have influence to procure assistance, especially from those States which are in the same situation as themselves?

But this is all talk. When it comes to blows, section will be against section, North against South. We had a salute early this morning in honor of the day, and now another is going on. --There will be a parade and a hundred guns for Anderson. This reminds me that Clemens, of Virginia, voted in the House yesterday with the Abolitionists, approving Anderson's conduct and Buchanan's determination to sustain him. The vote was not taken without great disorder. A general fight in the
