ran PANIC A‘ND rrs ORIGIN.
We trust there is not a laboring man or 9.
5119571988 man in Connecticut, whose bread
and business has been imperilled by the
forced panic sprung upon the country, who
does not already fully comprehend its origin,
its purpose and its perpetrators. 'That it is
simply and solely a politician’s _ panic is pat-
ent to every man with intelligence enough
to comprehend the simplest effect of positive
cause. Our country was never so rich be-
fore by countless millions in every element of
substantial wealth. 0f Grain, Cattle and
Gold we never had such a surfeit. Our ex-
ports were never so large, and our foreign
balances so favorable, for the past ten years
at least. Every element of industrial activi-
ity and prosperity were never so strong, so
abundant and ample. What then is the cause
or the excuse for a panic? Is it because the
Gama
cotton crop is a little short in a portion of
the South, and they too poor to meet all
their liabilities to Northern traders? Is it
because Lincoln has triumphed. in a contest
in which the South joined, and now refuses
to abide by the result of the stakes ‘? Nay,
verily. There is a more potent and desper-
ate Northern Slur-e Power in New York to-
day, than rul(s the South. It had its incep-
tion in causes not at all germain to the ex-
citcment and troubles of our Southern breth-
ren. In the brains of Northern traitors was
it conceived,'and in the defeat of a corrupt
* and dying dynasty, with nearly a hundred
millions of patronage to, yield up, has this
diabolical conspiracy its birth, its life, its ali-
ment. W'e believe this panic deliberately
planned and executed, would now be aug-
mented and aggravated, were it in the power
of these'political stock gamblers and scoun'
drcls to over-ride the strong action of the
New York Banks . And that men prominent
in political life,and holding high office under
this expiring Administration, are in league
with these men, we as fully believe. That
a concerted effort is to be made throughout our
own State to dragoon the working men who
swelled the vote for Lincoln and Hamlin, in-
to votingwith the sham democracy next
Spring, by charging these business disasters,
the hard times and scarcity of labor upon the
Republicans, has already become apparent
from the exposures made by the democratic
press. Let the valiant Republican hosts Of
little Connecticut, who swelled up amajority
of overrun THOUSAND for our noble stami-
ard bearers, take this new bull promptly and
resolutely by the horns. Let the villainy
and scorrndrelism which strikes at the daily
bread of our laboring men, the business of
our traders and artisans,bestripped of its mask
and its perpetrators exposed to the loath-
ing and just indignation of a people whose
dearest rights and interests have been thus
wantonly assailed by a conspiracy, without
a parallel in atrocity and meanness in the
history of political parties. To this end we
copy entire the following able article from
the pen of the Editor of the financial de-
partment of the N. Y. Independent, a leading
religious paper of large circulation and corn-
manding influence, and earnest in the cause
of truth and justice everywhere. After it
has been read by you, kind reader, pass it to
your neighbor:
The Panic and its Cause.
We have had a first-class Panic. The
Panic-Makers have been unexpectedly suc-
sessf'ul in their task. They have had the sat-
isfaction of seeing the market become, under
their hands, as tight as a millpond on a win-
ter‘s day. But in one respect, the Panic has
not been a success. They who meant (as
Collector Schell phrased it) only to “turn the
screws” upon other people, are beginng to
feel the grip and pinch themselve. In_tliis
articular, the plan was not well-contrived
I or have the panic-makers been shrewd
enough -'to keep their secret a secret. They
have not- heen able to hide the plan. Their mo-
tive has flashed out, and been made appar-
ent to all the world,
The chief result or the Panic has been to
excite a just indignation against its origina-
tors, both those who wittingly and those who
unwittingly helped to make it. High-mind-
ed and honorable merchants, heretofore un-
willing to believe ought against the honesty
and good intent of those who have so sedu-
lously employed the commercial forces of this
city to push forward the political schemes of
the South, have at last had their eyes opened
by the disgraceful spectacle of the last ten
days. No- former commercial revulsion in
this city ever brought such moral discredit
upon those who precipitated it as this. The
distress of ’57 resulted from a general extrav-
avagance in business, not from any ill-meant
design; but. the present difficulties are the
result of cool, deliberate, preconcerted lichen
by political agents plotting treason against
the Government of the Republic, and disaster
to its trade.
If the country were poor, if trade had been
dull if the harvests had been bad, if money
were scarce, if prospects seemed dark,——therc
might reasonably be a Panic, for there would
be a sufficient cause. But at present. the
country is rich, trade has been good, the bar-
vests were bountiful, money has been plenty,
prospects have been bri ht—aud there ought
not. to have been a anic, for there was
no sufficient cause.
But is there no commercial reason for any
trouble ?- Yes, for some; but not for much.
The South, by overtrading, has imperiled her
credit; and this is good reason for some dif-
ficulty. The extent of her over-purchases—
for which her notes still remain unpaid—are
best known to those. where the goods still lie
unsold. ‘Soutli'crn merchants came to this
city last spring, and; bought heavily on long
credit, trusting to the. uncertain summer to
add another rich Southern harvest to the un-
interrupted prosperity ol three proceeding
years. But while the crops of the West were
unparalleled, the crops of the South were
stinted. Poor crops make poor customers.—
The merchants at the South have found it
unexpectedly difficult to sell all. that they
bought. As a consequence, there is a burden
on their backs. The Southern banks have
been weakened, and, as we are assured on
good authority, many of them are only too
glad to find in the present political troubles
a plausible excuse for suspensron, to save
themselves from a less dignified failure
through absolute bankruptcy. All this IS
lame, and is enough to make its proper share
of trouble; but at. most it could cause, If left
to itself, only arlocal and temporary inconv-
ience, and furnishes no ground for a Geri-
eral Panic. In fact there is no more just
round for aannic than for a war with
France or the Czar. ,
Who can gain say the present general pros-
perity of the country at large? Never. in
any year before were barns so near burstin g
as since the list harvest moon; never in any
year before were the national exports -so
heavy as in this; never in any year before at
this timdg‘of it, did our gold and silveneount
up to. rounder figures of‘ solid, specie in our
vaults, than canbe counted now, and this, too
mbe ,xjncreased within thirty days b mil-
lions more :to come from Europe an from
California; never before have men had plain
evidence before their eyes of greater eneral
activity, prosperity, and ha )piness in .the
country,r;than since the bountiful summer just
passed. ,, ~ , .
No: the Panic isa result, not of Proverty
but ot-Ccnspinic . It has not a. commercial
but a political" cause. Conunerce hav-
ing suffered herself wheused as the cats-
p’aw .of. Politics, has followed 13 called a
sale. . .
Aparty of merchants in this city united
several weeks ago in a discreditable combi-
nation widefeat the election of Mr. Lincoln
by working upon the fears of those who were
made to believe that his election would bring
ruin upon the land. The Herald, for a fort-
the 'election, announced the com-

ing of :1 Panic with as much assurance as the
coming of the next steamer. Of course, if.
was easy to prophesy it, because it. had been
already planned. Ofcoursc those who were to
make it. knew that it would bciiiadc. A pre-
arranged movement to push down stocks is
easily effected in this city. Such a prear-
Oiily some who had
a right to be parties to it were not told in time,
and lost. money enough tocxcite them to vote
for Mr. Lincoln. Ilut the leaders. if not the
rank and file of lbllowci's, knew very well
when to get rid of tlrcirstocks before the coin-
ing,r depreciation of value. We could men-
tion the names Of some well known champi-
ons of the Fusion party who sold out all their
stocks shortly before the market was to be
borne down by their own unworthy act.
This was before the election, but as this
preliminary Panic did not succeed in defeat-
ing Mr. Lincoln, it has been kept up since—
regardless of expense !—to break, if possible,
the moral force ofhis election, to embarass
the incoming administration, and to defeat
the popular will expressed in the vote of the
Sixth of November. It is supposed that if
the South clamors loud enough, and the Pan-
ic pinches long enough, and the lie be told
often enough that the Republican party did
it,—the Republican states will at last he bul-
lied into blotting out. their Personal Liberty
Bills,—into permitting some of the free ter-
ritories to be turned into slave soil—and into
accepting some cunning compromise by
which the country shall still continue to be
governed by the old hereditary Slave Power
whose dominion has now, by the People’s
decree, come lawfully to an end. But thank
God that an honest arid brave man is to be
President!
This is the secret of the Panic: The Slave-
Pou'er of the North undertaking to do through
the stock market whalitfm‘led to do through
the ballot-bar. .
Well, gentleman, you Will not succeed.—
Merchants will not much longer suffer them-
selves to be used, to their own disadvantage,
as mere tools in the hands Of' politicians.—
~'l‘he trick is too plain not to be soon found
out by everybody who is watching the game.
Stock-brokers cannot afford to lose 5 per
cent. a day for the mere purpose of abolish-
ing Personal Liberty Bills; the Southern
houses of this city cannot afford to go to
protest for the mere sake of thrusting slave
labor into the free territories of the West in
defiance of the people’s will; the solid con-
servative nien of/New York cannot afford
the unexpected expenses Of a panic merely
for the sake Oi‘rallying an‘ overwhelmingly
defeated party. The ’anic, therefore, Will
soon end; but when it is ended, let honest
men never forget that it was planned and
executed by a combination ofpoiiticians and
merchants, acting in the interest of the Slave
Power, who, by their disloyalty to the Con-
stitutiOn and by their designs against the gov-
ernment, have involved the mercantile inter-
ests of the country in gloomy enibarassment,
when there was every reason for golden suc-
cess.

_ FIRE.
Our citizens were startled from their beds
at about 11 o'clock on Saturday night, by the
cry of fire. It turned out to be an old stable
belonging (of course) to our ever unfortunate
friend and neighbor Austin, Of the Norwalk
Foundry, situated immediately in the rear of
the Gazette Office, on the west bank of the
river. The flames soon communicated to
the Glover building, where their progress
was arrested, but not however until his buil-
ding and a - large stock of gas fixtures were
nearly ruined. The Engine Companies were
promptly on the ground and at work. Phoe-
nix, by her well directed efforts saving the
entire line of wooden stores on Main-st, east
side the Bridge, while Silver Grey, with all
her chronic difficulties, kept up such an iii-
cessant stream of water upon the south-west
end of Glover’s building and Weed's barn,as
saved our own Office from damage, and the
entire Burrall Block from undoubted des-
truction. They have, as they richly deserve,
our most. hearty thanks for their laborious.
and Well directed efforts.
MI. Austin, in this fifth singeing, (we be—
lieve it is,) had his horse burned up with his
barn,wliilc Mr. Glover’s loss cannot be far
from $500 to $800, both without insurance.
Daniel Shea, who occupied the north end of
Glover‘s building as a Blacksmiths shop,
was also a loser to a considerable extent. .

DISUNION’.
A Convention is-to be held in South Caro-
lina, which will probably declare that State
independent, and take measures for securing
to it a position among the nations of the
earth. It will be of about as much impor-
tancein the family of nations as Dahomey
or Sennaar. ' V .
Outside of South Carolina there is a gang
of traitors in every Cotton State, who have
been plotting treason for many years, and
who have made theDcmocrafic party in their
respective localities, the instrument for the
accomplishment of their" villainous schemes.
They may get a majority of the popular vote
in Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi. These
three States, with South Carolina, are all,
however, that these scouudrels can hope to
deludc by their utmost efforts.
They could not succeed even thus far,
without the active co-Operation of such
northern traitors as CALEB CUSIIING,‘ WM.
W. EATON. FERNANDO WOOD, and the Edi-
tors of such newspapers as the TIMES, REG—
ISTER, Aunonx, and Fannnn, whose whole
occupation is to disseminate just such lies as
will best deceive the Southern masses, and
most certainly cause them to break out into
open rebellion against the U. S. Government.
The object of these Northern miscreants
is, li0wcver, peculiarly their own. They im-
agine that by fomcnting rebellion in the
South, they can reinstate their party in pow-
er in the North, aud'thus secure to them—
selves thc State Offices, now that the people
have taken the Federal Offices out of their
frauds. Cowardly 'and venal themselves,
they: liclieve cverybOdy else to be so,'aud im-
agine tliat'cirough Republicans will be fright-
ened or bribed from their principles to repeal
all laws against. kidnapping, and practically
turn the Free States into Slave-holding corn-
munities.
They have got to learn that the Republican
majority of 400 000 is made up of EARNES’I‘

it?“ Such is the Statute which secures the
liberty of the FREE inhabitants of this State.
It is the whole Statute, title and all. The
Times, Regr'xlrr, Aurora, and Former call it
“the Personal Liberty Bill,” and hate'it as
their masters hate Liberty everywhere.
It aims to protect FREE persons only; it
contains no word of hope or help for the
slate ; it suggests no interference With any
Constitution or Law in relation to slaves or
slavery. It, is a wise, beneficent, constitu-
tional statute; one which every good man
can approve, and one which none‘but tyrants
or their tools can, understandingly, object to.
Read it. Read it again ; read every part
of it. It is Simply the declaration of Connec-
ticut that. she intends to maintain the liber-
ties of her FREE inhabitants. Having read
it twice, and with care, you will be able to
perceive that all that Southern Governors,
politicians, and demagogucs have said about
it, is a mistake into which they have fallen ;
and that all said about it, by the Register,
Times, Aurora. 21ml Flu-mar is a tissue of wil-
f'ul was, which are the eflicicut cause of the
mistakes of our Southern citizens and of' all
the consequences that seem likely to- flow
therefrom.

correspondence of (he Gazelle.
The PresidentiBlect and his Visitors.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20th, 1860.
DEAR GAZETTE—Your correspondent had
the pleasure, at day or two since, of seeing a
letter from one who lives near the President
elect, and is on intimate terms with him, to
his friend in this city. Among other more
weighty matteiswhicli were conservatively
and satisfactorily treated of, the writer men-
tions some incidents of a pleasant and some-
what humorous character that had trans-
pired under his own eye.
During a recent visit at the house of him
whom the people delight to honor, a lady of
agreeable mien introduced herself, and re-
minded him that he once dined at her house
twenty-five years ago, and when she apolo-
gized for her dinner, be promptly and, as it
proves, prophetically replied, “Madam, your
dinner is good enough for the President!”
During the same hour there came in a
couple of tall “Suckers,” one of whom, ‘ iii
homely phrase, proceeded to" tell his country-
man that the people of his neighborhood
had informed him that he was Of the same
stature as the exalted Illinoisan. “What is
your height ?” enquired Mr. Lincoln. “Six
feet and four inches,” was the reply. "Stand
up and let us measure,” said Mr. L. Accor-
dingly the young aspirant,allcrgetting-up-in-
tire-world, tOok his position by the wall and
his measurement was verified ; when the
great man stepped into the same position,
and he too was declared to be six feet four.
The ambitious young giant took his leave
with his friend, highly gratified.
A day or two previous, twu little urchins
gained admittance at the door, and one after-
’noon, having explored the passage leading
to the apartment where Mr. L. was sitting,
called to his companion, “ He’shere, Jim !"
He then explained his strange salutation by
saying to Mr. L., “ Dad heard you was dead,
and so he sent me here to see. And dad’s
afraid they’ll poison you, and he says you
musn’t eat anything only what your old wo-
man cooks for you, and mommy says so too."
And now, before we part, d or Gazette, let.
me beg you to continue to ob. rveamagnan-
imous forbearance from triumphing over our
brethren of the South in view of the recent
victory. If you will assume, fora moment,
their stand-point from which to review the
history of this contest, and of the last thirty
years’ war, you Inust concede that there has
been much to exasperatc those hot blooded
children of the sun, while you may still
maintain that your principles are right, and
greatly misapprchcnded by them; and that
the conduct of their politicians has been, in
some cases at least, most exacerbating and
intolerable. The honorable victor is ever
generous to his defeated opponents, especial-
ly does it become him to be so when that an-
tagonist is his brother. I am happy in the
conviction that this has been the general
course of the Republican press, but there
have been some painful exceptions of exulta-
tion and unseemly insults over the fallen foe,
as over a viper crushed under the heel, or as
of the Israelites rejoicing over the Egyptians
drowned in the Red Sea.
The Republicans owe their success much
more to conservative men, who, like your
humble servant, voted for Lincoln out of
confidence in his moderation and large states-
manship, than to noisy and rash radicalism,
and sectional bigotry and, selfirighteousness.
The men of the South are our brethren still,
as in the days of SEVEN’rv-Six

The vote of either one of flicclccfoi's

cast.
The total vote of the State, as appears from
the oflieial record, was 77,292. The number
received by each of the tickets may be ascer-
tained by examining the following table of
vote by counties. :Lincoln‘s majority over
all is 10,292. In 1856, the largest vote which
had ever, at that time, been cast in Connecti-
cut, footed up 80,325. Fremonf‘s majority
was 7,720. Last spring, the total vote for
Governor was 88,385, which Mr. Buckingham
had 44,458—a majority of 531. The vote at
the Presidential election this fall is 11,993 less
that of last spring.
The fusion ticket in Fairficld county polled
1805; in Hartford Co., 34; New Haven Co.,
10; and in Litchfield Co., 3. The vote of the
State consequently was divided as follows:
Lincoln 43,792

The Presidential election returns still lack

The total vote returned thus far is 111,818.—
Lincolii, 36,586; Douglas, 35,990; Breckin-
ridge, 31,216; Bell, 8,026 Lincoln over Doug-
las, 596. This is the most favorable account
for Douglas published, other authorities pla-
cing liiin nearly 1,000 behind Lincoln. The
rcmaindcrof the returns will probably de-
crease Lincoln‘s majority, buttlie State is
generally conceded to him. The official
count willgbe required to settle all doubts,
however. " ‘
OREGON.
A dispatch from Yreka, near Oregon, on
the 13th, says the latcs advices from Oregon
give 250 majority for Lincoln over Breckin-
ridge. Douglas was 6,000 behind Breckin-
ridge with three small Counties to hear from,
which cannot much vary the result.
KENTUCKY. _
The official vote of'this State is as follows:
Bell '
Bi eckin rid gc
Douglas
Lincoln
PENNSYLVANIA.
The official returns from Pennsylvania are
complete, with the exception Of the small
county of Forest, which gave Curtin a major-
ity of sixty. The result is simply amazing.
The entire vote is 475,000, a figure so slightly
exceeding that of 1856, as to supply a just
basis of comparison. The majority of Lin-
coln over the Fusion ticket is a fraction less
than ninety three thousand; over Douglas,
251,168; over Bell, 255,764; over all opposi-
tion, 62,518. The majority against the Re-
publicans in 1865 was 165,011; and we there-
fore learn that at least 175,000 votes who
were opposed at that time to the Republicans
have united themselves to that party. So
extraordinary a change, embracing as it does
little less than one-half the voting population
of the State, has no precedent in political iris-
tory. If the seal of condemnation were
wanting to the record of Mr. Buchanan’s Ad-
ministration, it is surely affixed by this mar-
velous rel'ulsion of feeling against him in his
own state.

ILLINOIS.
Illinois gives Lincoln 12,000 over Douglas
by the official returns, and about iivcthou-
sand clear majority over all. The total vote
of the State is 34,312, an increase of 103,131
on that of 1856; and LINCOL.‘ has 172,545,
Douglas 160,549, Bell 4,846, Breckinridge 2,-
272. Pretty fair for the State that Douglas
was “certain to have by 10,000 i” ‘

. it?“ A curious fugitive slave case has just
come to light in New York. John Thomas
escaped from his master, Mr. Winter, in Lou-
isville, Ky., came to New York and hired as
porter to a Mr. Vail. On Monday last John
was taken by some unexplained process to
the Grand Jury room, and on Tuesday Mr.
Vail saw him there in custody‘ of some one
who exhibited a power of attorney from
Winter. Mr. V. got a writ of habeaa corpus
on Tuesday, and next day Marshal Ryuders
responded to it ,by producing another colored
J 0er Thomas, who has been some time cons
fined in jail as a witness. The real John
Thomas, meantime had vanished. This
looks very much like kidnapping, either with
or without the couiiivance oi' the United
States officers. . -
P. S. The U. S. marshals reached Rich-
mond Va. yesterday, with the negro, and
have him in jail, “to be called for.”

Secession Rumors and G snip.
llolli branches of the Georgia legislature
have finally pri-fccfcil and passed the bill cul—
ling a slate convention.
The Richmond It'mluirrr of \l'cduesday
publishes a letter from Gov. lit-teller in reply
Io .lohii liusbiii of Pi'imn. The governor
says that the di-rclicfion on the part of the
I North is the prime cause of the present
;- trouble, and advises the people Of the North
; to correct the public sentiment of, their sec-
‘r tion and discharge their constitutional obli-
gations with strict. fidelity. He indicates his
stand as a mediator, an armed mediator if
necessary, between the South and its assail-
ants. The letfcr creates a sensation in Rich-
mond.
South Carolina on Wednesday devoted
herselffo a day of fasting and prayer. The
sermons preached were in favor of secession.
The excitement. in Alabama is reported by
the correspondent of the N. Y. Herald to be
quietiug down. It is rumored flint Forsyth
who was .an influential friend of Douglas is
for seccSSiou, and that the city of Mobile fa-
vors it.
The following dispatch froru Washington
to the N. Y.‘E_veuing Post is altogether prob-
ablcz—“It is said by those whose position is
such that they have means of getting at the
truth, that Mr. Cobb has come back to his old
anti-secession docrines. Of this there can be
no doubt, notwithstanding the disunion froth
which spreads itself over the Breckinridge
newspapers. Toombs and Iver-son are in
great danger of destruction by this reactiona-
ry movement, and no individual in all this
land would enjoy more keenly the privilege
of being in at their death than Secretary
Cobb.” '
He only used the disunion clamor in hopes
to defeat Lincoln.
Authentic information received at Wash-
ington, says that iiinetecn-twentiefhs of the
large slaveholdei's of the cotton states, who
do not, however, coriiprise one-tenth of' the
votes, deprecatc secession.

W“ \Vliile certain Northern Statcs‘ are
savagely berated in the Fusion journals for
passing acts to protect the Personal Liberty
of their inhabitants, we desire to call special
attention to the fact. that a man named John
Thomas, ibrmerly a Keiituck y slave, but
whose master had forfeited all claim on him
by sending him into a Free State to live and
earn money for said master‘s purse, was on
Monday seized in this City without warrant
of'law, imprisoned till some time next day,
and their carried off by sheer force to Rich-
mon, Virginia, where he arrived yesterday,
and whence his former master has doubtless
been telegraphed to send for him. Even the
Fugitive Slave law guarantees to this man a
hearing before a U. S. Commissioner, but
none was accorded him. He was simply kid-
napped and run off, though white testimony
was at hand to prove that he had been legally
emancipated by his master‘s own act. Add
to this the fact that a whole family of persons
was recently decayed from Illinois into Iowa
w here the man was murdered by the kidnap-
pers, and his wife and children taken into
Missouri, and there sold into Slavery, and we
are prepared to judge whether Personal Lib-
erty acts in Free States are or are not neces-
sary.— Tribune.
WGaribaldi has resigned his dictorship
into the hands of Victor Emanuel, and gone
home to his rude farm on the little island of

with their nine millions of people, to the Ita-

simplicity of his peaceful seclusion refusing
both wealth and titles, enriched in nothing
but glory, and the mingled admiration and
affection of the world. If‘ history records
any where the life ofa hero moredisinterest-
